Well I'm officially too ill to concentrate on anything or fall asleep so I guess I'll just exist for a while.
Welp just heard my first fireworks of the season so trying to walk my dog in an evening is due to slowly descend into hell over the next few weeks.
I'm so tempted to buy a crt tv rn someone please stage an intervention
Look, I don’t know who needs to hear this, but: The Titanic not having enough lifeboats to seat all passengers was NOT A DESIGN FLAW. The job of lifeboats is not to be *backup*. Their job is to ferry passengers to rescue and then go back for more. There would’ve been plenty *if* rescue had…
My focus after this is going to be on doing my Riven: The Sequel to Myst video and also reviving Mythillogical as we've gone a year now without podcasting. After that it'll be a video my patrons voted for a while back and I never got around to.

It will never stop being funny that the entire reason I have a YouTube channel is because I saw another history video back in like 2018, and thought 'this is mediocre I could do way better'.

Why do I keep getting so sick lmao it's almost like working every day of the week is bad for you
Please think of me tonight, the mildly ill person who is having to leave the house due to running out of little treats.
Folks how have the Jedi Knight games aged? found an old Xbox copy of Jedi Outcast I inherited off a roommate and figured I might check it out
I too think it's a good result when my vote share crashes to 45% in one of my safest seats and my opponents who I have been portraying as fringe lefties jump up to third of the vote, clearly this is only a win for me.
I have like 3-4 days left until this video is complete and I swear I am gonna procrastinate so much on painting minis once this is done
Wasn’t able to secure any review code for HELLRAISER unfortunately. But I found this amazing FB clip of Doug Bradley doing a Scouse Pinhead and now I’m crying from laughter. He’s amazing. (Source: YMH Podcast.)
I have like 15 minutes of this video left to edit together can someone please come over here and slap my hands away from bluesky dot com long enough for me to do actual job please?
This reminds me of how the best book I've ever encountered on the Salem Witch trials has all the excitement of the most boring PhD thesis you've ever read that was designed for exactly 3 people to read and then disappear into an archive forever.
yaoi gagarin@mel.bzky.team · 3d agoim serious btw i really want to read this book, ive seen it separately referred to as a great resource and the only criticism ive found online is "its a dull, hard read, especially if youre not coming in knowledgable about the subject" which as far as history books go is a compliment to me
I bring a big 'please don't hate me guys I'm doing my best 🥺' to my ttrpg sessions that I pray my players don't find annoying.
Ngl Dragon Age 2 was on to something by making every party member bisexual (except 1 but he was boring so no one cares) back when the Fallout games were just barely getting around to acknowledging gay people exist
This is very first world problems and I'm extremely fortunate to have been able to get a mortgage at all but damn looking at the gigantic amount you still owe after 4 years of repayments is depressing.
Death Stranding is a game that just never clicked with me mechanically, but I'm grateful something so unusual gameplay wise got the full triple A treatment and a sequel.
Fuck my ttrpg group seemed to have a good time and 'enjoy themselves' what am I doing wrong?
Started playing the original Fable again and I know I say I want to make a video about -current game I'm playing- all the time but it would be fun to examine the game from the perspective of someone who a. didn't know about any of Molyneux's promises and b. could barely get it running back in 2004.
explaining that Apple used to make desktop towers like the G5 to an American: “imagine a big Mac”
Also on a minor note, don't be an idiot like me and spend half that time lifting with bad form and suddenly be 37 with wrists and knees that scream at you.
Charles Snart (Histobat)@thehistocrat.bsky.social · 4d agoam over it enough to no longer be worried if I have a bit of body fat but somehow i have decided that two weeks will have nulified twenty years of weightlifting and my muscles are all gone.
I took a couple of weeks off lifting weights because I was constantly tired and thought I might have run my body into the ground and now I'm discovering I am not as over my body dysmorphia as I thought.
Back on my bullshit (writing a 90 minute video on an old point an click adventure game)
