Being unhappy all of the time is not a metric for how much you care. In fandom or real life.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but You can just play a game for ~30 hours, enjoy it, finish it (or not), and then just... Move on. You don't have to keep playing every game you enjoy until you can't stand it anymore.

Imagine you're some Russian kid who joins the GRU thinking you're going to do glamorous exciting spy stuff and instead your job is to come up with video ideas for Asmongold.

Getting really fed up with Amazon just throwing books into cardboard boxes to bounce around with no protection. You'd like to think since their whole business started with books they could show them a bit more respect. I feel like they used to be better about this.

Flipping through my Audubon guide searching in vain for information on this "New Bird" I keep hearing about.

Some year I will get to just enjoy a Christmas season without something stressful and depressing going on. Not this year, or the previous 5 or so. But some year.

Picked up Megaton Musashi W Wired in the Steam sale and I like it so far but the controls and UI are giving me a bit of Starfire Saga V: Laserion anxiety. @pennyarcade.bsky.social

#SteamSale is on so I went to see what was discounted from my wishlist and was gaslighted by a game I was sure I had deleted years ago when it became clear it would never coming out appearing at the top? Clicking on it brings up this store page. I was mildly amused, maybe you will be too.

Weird to see someone talk about how the animation in an anime series from 2010 "still holds up" and then you realize they're probably barely older than the show is.

Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash was such a breath of fresh air from all of the usual power fantasy isekai slop.

It's bizarre to me how many people in #DnD and #TTRPG spaces generally sincerely believe in the idea that some people are "unlucky" and "always roll badly." Especially since so many in these communities would also proudly affirm they "believe in science."
