Our ac unit has been on the fritz, leaking water from a pipe and soaking the carpet. The landlord's supposed to send someone over soon. In the meantime poor Ahriman has been having to change out the rug towels over and over.


I'm more disgusted with the My Little Pony fandom than usual. Yesterday my wife tried to watch a video that was labeled "saucy MLP comedy" and instead it was creepy tradwife bullshit and queer erasure of Lyra Heartstrings. She felt really depressed after. I don't know how many times I've encountered a MLP youtuber who will post something adorable one day and then the following will post just the most ugly, shitty, cynical edgelord garbage. Uuuugh. The bigotry in the fandom is bad enough but I also hate how many people seem to have such contempt for the show's intended positive messages.

Dead Space (Xbox 360) Review

  Dead Space is a survival horror game set in - you guessed it - space! Specifically, the USG Ishimura. You'll follow protagonist Isaac Clarke as what started as a an attempt to fix up a spacecraft turns into an wonderful example of "everything that can go wrong definitely will". The story takes several twists and turns and you'll even get to venture beyond the game's central location a few times! As usual, I won't go too deep into the story because I'd like you to be able to experience it for yourself if you've never played the game! I quite it enjoyed it though, and the game created a good sense of isolated fear while also making me concerned for the safety of Isaac's few surviving crew-mates throughout the game. The combat is very intense as most of the creatures you'll encounter move in a very violent and erratic manners, and you'll want to target their weak points - usually the limbs. Thankfully, the game has a cool upgra...

Grim Fandango Remastered (PC) Review

Grim Fandango is a wonderfully charming point and click adventure game with a unique style. It's based on Mexican/Central American mythology as well as the film nior genre. There are many fun characters to meet and lots of great comedy. They give you multiple options for control - you can either use the classic point and click controls, or you can move Manny around manually in Resident Evil/"tank" style controls (which I found handy at times to use). It can be confusing to figure out puzzle solutions, but there are plenty of guides available online if you get stuck. I don't want to give anything of the story away so I suggest trying the game for yourself! Overall the game is fantastic, but I have a few small criticisms: The game does occasionally have graphical bugs, but I did not encounter any that hindered my enjoyment of the game.  Most of them were actually very comical to encounter, such as Mannys head disappearing or affixing a lever to Glottis...

Unreal Tournament 3 (PC) Review

  "UT3 is a blast! There may not be as much custom content available as for it's predecessor (ut2004), but it's got the same ol' fun action-packed game-play and lots of eye candy to boot. The hoverboards and other new vehicles add lots of fun to already satisfying game-play." - My original steam review from 2011 2023 Thoughts: It was indeed a blast! I didn't spend as much time with this one as UT2004, because there wasn't anywhere near as big of a modding community for the game, but it's still a solid entry in the Unreal series. The story campaign was fun to play through, having a story-line based more around a war with the Necris, and lots of cut scenes, as well. It had a nice mechanic where you could occasionally use a "card" (or something, it's been a long time) to skip a mission if it was getting too frustrating, which helped me out a few times. The graphical upgrade to the game is really cool and slick looking, and blew ...
