My clones have formed a band and are regaling me with adorably cheesy music

Surviving and escaping the sun-seared death-trap of a planet is the ultimate goal but I'm spending an unexpected amount of time caring for the physical and emotional wellbeing of my brother-clones instead. I expected it would go for a sitcom tone but it's much more thoughtful than that

This may be mainstream outlet privilege, but I don't think I've meaningfully relied on privileged access for about 10 years. I learned at Kotaku that being denied early copies of things rarely impacted our coverage, it just encouraged us to be more creative and look at what readers actually wanted

Also, bonus, whilst writing this I rediscovered an old article of mine, advising people how to play video games after having a baby. Almost all of it's still relevant, if you're at this stage now 🫶
That baby is now an 8-year-old. Old enough to play Zelda himself
