Georgie manages to get cuter every single day, and we don't know how he does it (picture from the husband).

To compensate for a bug, all Pokémon Go players will have this week's Go Tour raid research autocompleted - meaning you can catch the following 11 (!) legendaries for free before the weekend. Tip: If you wait until tonight's Spotlight Hour redux (6pm-7pm) you get double candy for catching each one.

Restart is looking for a writer with expertise in the Assassin's Creed franchise (we are not looking for a Shadows reviewer or general content pitches). Please email [email protected] with recent writing samples. Deadline: EOD 2/26/2025.

I’m behind on playing this, but FFVII Rebirth sure is pretty (and I really like its photo mode).

Collected my first rare Fishing Lure Decor Pikmin. So Shiny! 😁

Rather than a birthday cake, this year my husband bought me this jumbo brownie with peanut butter and chocolate frosting from a local bakery. 😍

Tried the new blackberry Dr. Pepper and it’s really good. Highly recommend!

Absolutely loving Slime Rancher 2. This Flutter Gordo is so pretty. It’s a shame they don’t stick around after you feed them!

@futterish.bsky.social Happy belated birthday!!

Four games with 10/10 soundtracks.

I somehow missed the fact that Slime Rancher 2 came out on PS5 last year, so I just picked it up on sale. Yay!

“Yeah, they’ll do that.” But we generally turn it into “Yeah, it’ll do that.”

Picked up a new backpack at TJ Maxx for our Disney trip. It’s so cute and a nice size. I should be able to fit everything I want inside (I carry lots of stuff at amusement parks).

Finally took the time to create a theme park area and Mickey quickly sat on the bench in front of the Partners Statue. So cute.

Stitch’s house was in an awkward place, so I moved it over by the pier and even put out some surfboards and his little ship. 😍

Flights have been booked - it’s official. I’m finally going to Walt Disney World for the first time in March!! 🎉🎢 ✈️

Little paws. 😍 🐈‍⬛

Started playing Loddlenaut over the weekend, and it’s such a wonderful cozy game. You clean up the pollution in the ocean on an alien planet, and can find and befriend cute little critters (loddles) along the way. Highly recommend (it plays great on Steam Deck)!

Finished the main story in Garden Life. Very fun, very cozy game. I had originally thought about going for the Platinum, but most of the Trophies I have left would require grinding just for the sake of it, so I’m taking a break at least for now. Photo mode pictures below!

Used a Christmas gift card to pay for most of the Storybook Vale expansion for Disney Dreamlight Valley and I’m loving it. I love the addition of new features that complement the existing gameplay loop.

Started another Christmas gift game - one I hadn’t heard of: Garden Life: A Cozy Simulator. You grow lovely flowers and fulfill quests. It has that super sticky “one more day” quality that games like Stardew Valley have. Really enjoying it so far! My husband did well on gaming gifts this year! 🎄

Just earned the Platinum in Fresh Start. The game has some technical imperfections (like grammatical errors in the text), but I fully enjoyed the experience. Very similar vibes to PowerWash Simulator, and I recommend it if you enjoyed that one.

Received Fresh Start for PS5 as a Christmas gift and I’m really enjoying it. Similar to PowerWash Simulator (which I adored), with long levels that you can complete methodically as you clean up debris and help bring back nature to places around the world. Very cozy. Very fun.

Merry Christmas!! 🎄🎁

That moment when your mom is making pumpkin roll filling and lets you eat what clung to the sides of the bowl. Such a nostalgic thing, and it’s super yummy, too! 🎄🥰

Hit level 50 in Skyrim and unlocked the Platinum Trophy on PS5. Still such a fun game.
