the default end date on the redundancy form was october 31st. i still have 87/294 hours of annual leave, plus mandatory 35 christmas hours. adjusting 87 for pro rata 49+35=84. october 14th as my last day? october 16th if they think 35 should be pro rata too? 49+24=73? either way, 1 month left :(

they drank too much of that bin juice

catching myself at an alarmingly increasing rate singing shit on repeat to myself like “daddy’s having food noooow”, getting lower and lower in register. all just to let my dog know i’m not making anything for her.

still thinking about this dork ass bit

This is a video game made for children

what zelda will look like in 2026

missed the zelda stream so just went back and tried to catch up but i stopped watching pretty fast. i have no nostalgia for zelda (played a little OoT in the early '10s), and don't have a switch 2 anyway, so just dumping some thoughts.

when developing a story for your art (whatever form it takes; audio, visual, written, spoken) what do you focus on developing primarily (not necessarily first): - the character(s) - the relationship(s) - the setting(s) - the narrative(s) - the plot twist(s)

is this that sapphic love i hear so much about.

Thinking about portal 2

one of my favourite metaphors for life i think about a lot: to make a right turn on a bike you gotta turn a little left first. like how in life you gotta make little mistakes before you can succeed. but FUCK when cars do it though holy shit i’m behind you trying to PASS, IDIOT

the ai bubble is awesome because you know 99% of these motherfuckers who are saying its inevitable and polluting the waters in all sorts of fields aren't running a local model so the minute they lose access to the big providers the world will instantly get more peaceful

university court decides today if after all these years of stress whether they’re going to make me redundant. i played their game and put in for voluntary redundancy since they were going to make me take compulsory redundancy anyway. if they reject it i’m gonna laugh/cry. i just want to be done.

every job deserves comfort, dignity and safety! 🫡

it occurs to me this predating sonic adventure 2 by about 6 years is probably exactly where the line comes from. “some flight. no peanuts, no stallone movie. i’m outta here”. “talk about low-budget flights. no food or movies? i’m outta here.” i wonder if there’s a longer lineage to the bit.

my gf got mad at me because in her dream i went into a swimming pool with some blonde girl. when she left and i came home later apparently i was only regretful because it “was an AI model” and “not a real model”. so now AI’s even stealing your men, too.

The thing folks using AI on games don't understand is, they are expressing destructive hatred towards the medium. Congrats, you made the thing make -insert genre here-. You've destroyed its market. That genre is over now. I hope you enjoy recombinations of past ones, cuz, that's all their is now.

what's the obsession with certain people who think because Company isn't the Exact Same Team from when they discovered it, it means it Lost What Made It So Good. this is textbook conservative mindset; it's not the same so it's bad. (getting weirdo grifters in my youtube algorithm, gotta purge)

you never see people blow their nose in video games what’s up with that

i thought deltarune chapter 6 wouldn’t have a weird route

Gen-AI controversy aside, after 30 minutes with Crazy Taxi: World Tour, it feels like classic arcade Sega - and it's an absolute blast www.eurogamer.net/crazy-taxi-w...

a few weeks ago i noted that everytime my partner goes out she comes back with a toy or snack for our dog. i mentioned off-hand that she probably thinks she goes hunting for her when she goes out. so now everytime we go out we have to “hunt” for a present for rosie.

influencers are just the digital age equivalent of door-to-door salespeople

i’d love to make a return to PAX for the first time in 14 years but until The State of The States is resolved, that’s not happening. miss everyone, miss seattle, miss bumping into people and going AYY.

i can’t deal with then replacing the ENTIRE ffxiv cast for heavensward. reading about it and it’s because they wanted “authentic british actors”. authentic for who? this is just london english. i’m sure they’ll “grow on me” but i’m completely thrown off.

i still think it’s really fucked up that my mortgage is £100 less per month than my rent at my last place was. but i was told i couldn’t “afford” that much until i earned “enough”? if it’s not housing prices then it’s lenders. it’s a total mess.
