seriously fuck slay the spire 2. no matter how good i manage to get my deck, i always get to a boss and it just goes "haha fuck you git gud". no matter how well i synergize, stack the deck, whatever. Defintiely feels like anti-player design, not "fair challenge" design

I've been continuing through Battletech lore listening and there is wild number of occurrences of "this important leader literally just tripped while walking and fucking died" Not even "under suspicious circumstances" just "tripped and broke their neck" And im only up to the Reclamation war

There will never be an EA game published again that has any kind of societally progressive themes Not in the headline: also a major US conservative group doing the buying (EA owns an incredible amount of studios who yes, DID make games like that) www.bbc.com/news/article...

Saudi-led group completes $55bn purchase of gaming giant EA

The deal takes the maker of titles including The Sims and EA FC into private ownership - and loads it with debt.

"If a man writes a woman a sonnet he loves her, if he writes her 300 sonnets he loves sonnets" OR MAYBE SHE SAID SHE LIKED SONNETS AND HES JUST TRYING TO SHARE SOMETHING HE THINKS BRINGS THEM BOTH JOY BECAUSE THATS REALLY FUCKING HARD TO DO AOMETIMES

My first game of star wars legion was very fun. My opponent was a good teacher and gave me a handicap without letting me just beat him down. So I managed to pull off a victory! I had miscalculated so sadly there was some gray on the field but that is being corrected Super fun, will def play more!

H'okay. More priming. The person teaching me Legion has ordained we will play a proper 600pt game so I primed up another squad of B1s, and even went over them and Grievous with gray. I think tomorrow I'll try to bulk basecoat them with the airbrush

Got my whole force for the starter game of legion primed in one go. I'm getting better at the airbrush too, I was able to prime all of this, emptying and refilling the cup 3 times, without a clog

I don't give leeway for the "i only used the AI to get a concept, I'll pay someone to model/print it" You know what you could have done if you're paying people anyway? paid a fucking artist to draw the concept

I really like the local coffee cafe that I've started going to, the only annoyance which I noticed this morning as I went to have my coffee, a wafflewich, and read a book there at 7am when it was nice and quiet, is the calm mood of it is kind of fucked by the thumbing bass music the kitchen plays
