A solid hour of planning later, I have busted the ass of every ADVENT troop, alien, and Chosen that tried to come for my ship in XCOM 2, with zero deaths. Pay no mind the number of times I may or may not have reloaded my save.

5/6/2025 – Tactical Retreat I am not a tactical genius, not by any means. By which I mean, that I reinstalled XCOM 2 recently, and have found that ADVENT (the aliens) have a fondness for kicking my head in. It is, and to my own dismay, that I find myself dropping the game difficulty down to Rookie…

Bungus. I will NEVER call it a "TWID", it is a TWAB, you will not make me call it anything BUT a "TWAB".

Love when my leg is sore enough to where I can't sit in my desk chair without a dull ache in it. Wonderful times. XCOM needs me, but I'm semi-laid up with a sore leg.

5/3/2025 – Washed Out, Washed Up I am incredibly washed up, at least in my own mind. It hit me as my Friday night was highlighted by making lasagna and a birthday cake that I am beyond hopeless at this point. I, even ten years ago would have seen that as the lamest thing ever. Now, going to buy a…

4/27/2025 – Too Busy To Be Busy I have this almost insatiable need to stay busy. Which is ironic, because I haven't written or streamed as much as I intended to this month, but, I have been busy-ish. Work, while not insane anymore, has been keeping me busy with busted updates that go through, and…

4/20/2025 – Small Ball As I bound towards "Old(tm)" status, I feel like I'm accidentally developing some kind of patience, some kind of ability to appreciate "small ball". What I mean, is that I kind of have an appreciation for small improvements, small developments that build up instead of one…
