Since purchasing a Steam Deck my Steam Replay for the year has been getting beefy. A damn good year of games.

@merrykish.bsky.social during this weeks Fire Escape Cast, Dan says twice in a row “Mary’s right” at the 2:27:07 time stamp. Would be a real shame if someone were to clip it and upload it to a soundboard for future use….

If the Game Awards taught us anything this year, it’s that too many people on the internet are joyless motherfuckers no matter what you offer them. Absolutely incredible showing IMO.

The obligatory Game Awards 2025 PSA as eloquently presented by Greg Miller.

This out take photo from our Christmas card this year is maybe my favorite thing ever

@marvel-rivals.bsky.social game is a ton of fun, but how is there no team up between Cap and Bucky?

Having finished Arcane (in absolute awe) earlier today, it is mind blowing to me that the cream of the crop of fantasy television and a master class in character drama is a League of Legends property. A game that I have bounced off during every attempt to play it. At least 2XKO can fill my LoL hole.

I stumbled across this absolutely cursed custom PlayStation design online, and I NEED it now

Picking up Crow Country, 1000X Resist and Arzette during the Steam Autumn sale! What’s everyone else grabbing?

I don’t really buy into the outrage at having Erdtree in the Game Awards GOTY nominations, it’s a stunning experience whether it’s an expansion or an original game. It’d be crazy to not nominate it as a GOTY candidate, but also in a year of great games it would be equally crazy for it to win GOTY.

Watching my wife playing through Outer Worlds for the first time, I am reminded how nuanced and well-considered their approach to LBGTQIA characters was (specifically Parvati). Feels like the gold standard for inclusive representation in modern gaming.

Watched Dragon Half to completion tonight and it is an absolute crime that anime wasn’t given more than a couple episodes. Charming, genuinely hilarious and unapologetically fun to watch, it had the right ingredients to have become an all-time great.

Half-Life 2 is free to own on Steam (offer expires Nov 18th). The game is also updated for its anniversary https://buff.ly/48UyM5O Free offer also includes Ep 1 & 2 Happy 20th to the GOAT FPS

Nothing like that exhilarating high you get by waiting until the last day of Open Enrollment before signing up for insurance. Really living on the knife-edge out here.

Baby Metal and Scene Queen live in Raleigh was an absolute blast, really appreciate the caliber of these two different types of performances.

Between 2XKO being extremely hype and Arcane being extremely good, we are living in the renaissance era for people who suck at League but love the world it has built.

From now on, Will Forte and I are just gonna be a Chappell Roan cover band.

The Dan Ryckert “is milk cow piss” segment might be the most wildly entertaining 10 minutes of podcasting ever recorded. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1Pm...

Today would have been Carl Sagan's 90th birthday. How fitting that he predicted the current state of our country almost 30 years ago. Worth reading. Happy Birthday, Carl. We miss you. 💙

Last week I had read someone suggesting that the political themes regarding racism and classism in Metaphor ReFantazio are “uncontroversial”, but in a post-election world the uncomfortable truth is they are all too controversial.
