Playing the original Final Fantasy 7 as a kid, I thought it was such a stupid concept that people would literally suck the life out of the planet & doom themselves for the sake of convenience and easy living. As an adult playing the remakes, nah, I get it. People would, at least collectively.

Started #writing a minor worldbuilding detail, neat to mention but not super consequential. Which is now several pages of lore regarding a geopolitical conflict. #amwriting #writingcommunity #writesky

Everybody shut up!! It’s Solo Leveling Saturday!! #anime #animesky #blackanimesky #blerdsky #sololeveling

The FF7 Rebirth Costa del Sol mini-games are making my introverted ass never want to visit a beach resort, ever

One time, when I was a kid, my mom wanted to get rid of an old chair and put it on the curb with a sign that said 'free'. It was still there a day later. I switched the sign to say '$50, ask inside' and it vanished within the hour.

Good morning ☀️ And this is so valid I FEEL SEEN 👀

Welp, my #DnD players now know that in the 30 in-universe years since last campaign, two of their most beloved NPCs got married, had a child, and said child was kidnapped as a hostage by the overarching BBEG. So, there's that to deal with now.

‘Avatar’ Sequel Series ‘Seven Havens’ Ordered at Nickelodeon, Set After ‘Legend of Korra’ variety.com/2025/tv/news... "The new 2D animated series will consist of 26 half-hour episodes spread across two seasons, or Books 1 & 2 in “Avatar” style."

Clash of the Titans will forever vex me, because all most people remember from that Greek mythology movie is "release the kraken", a monster from Norse mythology.

Playing FF7 Rebirth and why is the moogle design so cursed? What happened to my precious fluffy boys

Favorite six #Pokemon; what's your dream team?

Still one of the funniest Mega Man related tweets

I always loved snowy days as a kid. Being able to see my breath and build snow towers to knock over let me imagine I was one of my personal heroes, Showa-era Godzilla.

#Writing fantasy is great because you get to make up the rules. It's also awful, because you have to keep track of all those rules you made up. #amwriting #writingcommunity #writesky

If I ever become a cyborg, I gotta go back to school for a doctorate cause then I'll be Dr. Robot Nick.

Another beautiful day in the Midwest

5/5⭐ for God of War: Ragnarok Amazing game, loved the spin they put on traditional Norse mythology (especially how Odin is written)

What's your favorite Kevin Bacon movie and why is it Tremors?

3.5/5⭐ for The Gorge Extra half star for using the Twisted Sister version of Oh Come All Ye Faithful, the objectively best version of that song. #filmsky

I've thrown a lot at my #DnD players over the years. Traps, monsters, gods. But nothing has ever caught them more off guard than the first time an enemy dropped to their knees & begged for mercy. I could see the gears in their heads grind to a halt as they realized they had no idea how to proceed.

Today is the 20th anniversary of Bulbapedia!!! The folks over there commissioned me to show off the cool side of Bulbasaur and I was more than happy to do so!

My brother just informed me that in the upcoming Stephen King film The Monkey, the titular toy monkey has drums instead of cymbals (as in the original short story) because Disney bought the copyright to toy monkeys with cymbals for Toy Story 3. I wish I could say that came as a surprise. 🐵🥁

Roses are red, violets are blue, I’d rather stay home and read a book, too.

Cupid keeps aiming, But I dodge every shot, He says, "You need passion!" I say, "Rather not."
