imagine if they made a Qix with the Tetris Effect treatment, wouldn't that be something

I couldn't help myself

20 years ago i bought two MOTHER 3 DX boxes – one for myself, one for The Future

a few weeks ago, i took that mint DX with me to Japan and got it signed by Shigesato Itoi

Are folks noticing fewer interactions on here? Or maybe I’m not engaging enough lately.

it felt like an eternity, the 11 years between EarthBound and MOTHER 3, but the 20 years since the latter don't seem quite so long

Happy 20th to MOTHER 3. 20 years ago I made an english counterpart to Hobonichi's countdown site MOTHER 3 World with the help of @clydemandelin.bsky.social 's quick translations. You can find it archived on starmen.net

I've been "counting calories" in an effort to "lose weight" so I'm paying closer attention to portion sizes and so far I'm learning a box of pasta can get me through a week. Turns out one portion per meal is enough, even for a lad as large as myself. What a concept.

My grandmother was an incredibly talented seamstress before she passed away. This was the last quilt she made (winter 2000).

the latest Solitary Gourmet episode subtitles napolitan spaghetti as "good old tomato and ham pasta" repeatedly, which I think is pretty neat
