Finished the original Neon Genesis Evangelion anime on Netflix. What in the fuck were those final 2 episodes??? Onto the End, I guess...

There are a select # of people who can (and elect to) recommend me music - whom I cherish - and today one of them hit me up for the first time in ages. I already knew the song they recommended 😭 But heard some sweet unreleased music!

Every blue moon the Spotify Discover playlist will drop an absolute banger. This is one of the best modern metalcore/djent bands I've ever heard. Absolutely in love with this song, old Northlane fans need this. #djent #progmetal open.spotify.com/track/6fZ2ZI...

I only exist to share music no one else listens to. For today's progmetal delight here is Cold Night for Alligators. The fat Doom riff (not the game) sucked me in, I stayed for the vocals and groove, then the guitar solo took it over the top. open.spotify.com/track/78CtUz...

I hate to constantly compare Metaphor Refantazio to Dragon Age Veilguard but I think I like the dragon fights in it over the game named after the damn creatures.

I really fuck with the cursive capital T. It looked at the F, said nah I don't need that middle bar, and flourished.

They screwed this all up.

The advent of millennial WFH "take care of yourself" culture butting heads with the boomer "life is work" culture is fascinating to observe but I wish I wasn't in the middle of it. Wanting to be comfortable while working shouldn't be asking for the world.

As a working adult I've come to dislike snow, but at least it shows how often my neighbor enters my backyard to clean up his dog's messes. Gonna have to figure that out sometime so I can safely leave my blinds open.

Ain't nothing like having an out of body experience at work because you hear saxophone during a breakdown. The Feels. open.spotify.com/track/0jSY3i...

I prefer WFH because for some reason at my job the AC is running despite it being 31 degrees outside. I have to drink warm water/tea to stay warm when I could be at home in a big hoodie and blanket.

Trying my best to keep this quote in my head. I be getting too miffed at random people.

Normally I'd groan over getting a new party member over 50 hours into a JRPG but I'm literally clapping at what Metaphor manages to do with its narrative. I love this game.

It's cliche but there's something healing about sipping a fresh hot coffee while listening to chill Lo-Fi.

Furthering my brand as an outcast I just ordered a razr flip phone because it has an outer screen and can be easily used with 1 hand. Why tf do phones gotta be so big now? Also - time for new earbuds, idk positive I feel about the Steelseries Gamebuds.

Why does my stomach always hurt in the morning? (had Steak n Shake last night) I can't catch a break. (eats pizza and ice cream multiple times a week) Huh, maybe it'll feel better soon. (sips coffee, hasn't eaten a vegetable in a week)

Having to get up from this bliss to go to work is criminal

Getting a new party member 60 hours into a game who's immediately endearing and unique is the charm of Metaphor Refantazio. This game rules.

If tech leaders are entering politics I want them to help enforce law by creating an orbital laser than annihilates anyone who doesn't return their shopping cart. Parking lots will be pristine.

Help, my I can't get my jaw off the floor

I desperately need a haircut but going out in 1 degree weather for any length of time sounds miserable. This is what hats are for, right?

Time to get incredibly inebriated and listen to my favorite band Eidola's new album - Mend. Fully expecting to have an irrational emotional response. Tears will be shed.

In honor of David Lynch, go enjoy yourself a damn fine cup of coffee. open.spotify.com/track/3nGTiD...

I block any unknown phone number that calls and interrupts a song playing from Spotify. If they were meant to reach me they'd have better timing.

Got introduced to this track many years ago by Rocksmith and I've never grown tired of it. Every time it pops on I can say "I know that riff!" open.spotify.com/track/2r7Z35...

The true benefit of a standing desk is being able to break out in dance at any moment. i b vibin' youtu.be/UojfiHig_vw?...

You ever say goodnight to your gaming group, close the game, then sit and chat for 2 hours not doing anything else? Holy shit I'm tired.

I constantly confuse Johnny Blaze with Johnny Storm because I expect the dude completely encased in fire to be called BLAZE but nah

Despite not having children spending time with Maria in Metaphor Refantazio rips my heart to shreds. The writing in this game is tops.

Today at lunch I chatted with my boss about hyper-violent anime like Berserk, Hellsing Ultimate, and Goblin Slayer. He has accepted that his team is full of weirdos.

I take back what I said about the music choices in Arcane season 2. The non-English song are absolutely on point.

The disparity between Arcane season two's visuals and music is insane. The biggest gap I can think of.

Today I'm dedicated to finishing FF7 Rebirth. I haven't played since May when I started the final dungeon, The Temple of Ancients.

One of my greatest fears is a co-worker seeing my stank face when I'm vibing to an incredible riff, breakdown, or melodic blast beat section

Happy, thinking about FF7 Rebirth.

Take me back to when I could play Elden Ring all day
