GP02 is, FINALLY, complete. I'll topcoat most of it today, the other bits (both legs and the shoulder binder thrusters) tomorrow. I need more alligator clips. Got a second foam block to stick 'em in, just don't have the clips for it, man. This kit has taken FOREVER to get done! Started Jan 4th! 😭

Dang, those Frosted Cinnamon Roll Pop-Tarts are tops, man. Replaced the brown sugar with icing. It's cloyingly sweet, though. I couldn't eat both in a pack for sure. And it's basically the only thing that'll stop me from going through that pack way too fast! Those are an A+!

GP02's down to only needing one leg decal'd up. Unfortunately there's snow and ice on the ground and it's cold as the devil's taint right now. It's not like I can go out and topcoat even if I were to finish it up today. The joys of not having a garage, eh? #Gunpla

"How's your day, Gwen?" Oh. Y'know. Car threw a tire on the way home from getting lunch and we had to drive the rest of the way on the rim, which is now wrecked, and the remnants of the tire tore up the back end of the car. No idea how we'll afford to get it fixed, either. You?

Made a second Nether portal -in- the Nether and it stuck me not that far from spawn. I ran a lot further from spawn than I thought but in my defense Minecraft generated like a hundred miles of forests in all directions. Got Dark Oak and Acacia. Still lacking any Cactus. >:| ANNOYED!

I've had the two main songs from Miami Connection stuck in my head for days. This is all @rifftrax.com's fault! ...I mean I guess it's all YK Kim's fault, but I watched the Rifftrax version so they're footin' the blame on this one!

So is Discord just down right now? Because I've been up over 90 minutes and cannot connect to the web client at all.

Judgment reserved until I can drink the full bottle, but Orange Cream Coke doesn't really have any Coke flavor to it. It's just Orange Cream. Which is fine if you like orange cream sodas. I was hoping for a more interesting mix. Not awful but I wouldn't get it again. It'll be a "D" somewhere.

Hey fuck Monster Hunter Wilds. Tourist-pandering trash. Capcom have finally killed my favorite franchise by catering to all the casuals they scooped up with the dumpster fire that was World. Godawful to control, slow and clunky, feels nothing like MH. Took out MH Language, too. Fuck this. Fuck them.

Since compasses changed and they point to world spawn instead of your bed for some dumbass reason now, and the thing to change that is from a mat I've not seen for all my hours in the Nether, I'm just building a path back to spawn and lighting it with torches so it never happens again.

Well, I'm glad I tapped out of Platinum hunting Minecraft. Aside from there being one unavoidable multiplayer trophy on the way, two optional ones never popped. And one was the 'play for 100 days' one. I have the in-game day tracker on to tell. So balls to it. Devs insulting my time. I'm done.

Sleep schedule is muffed up and I'm cranky about it and Twitter's all messed up 'cause GoodTwitter2 broke. So I'm gonna grumble my way through Iron Fist S1E3 over here tonight. This show is just so boring. It's not making me angry like the last 3 Netflix Marvel shows did, it's just... nothing.

G-Rework decals continue to not impress. The Wing Zero's were fine, but between the V2 and now GP02, I dunno how much I'll want to use their products beyond the others I already have. 2 rips in session 1. I'll hafta draw the A in later. May yet use the stickers since the Sharpie dries bad. #Gunpla

Yo uh... thought #Mincraft compasses pointed you towards your god damn bed instead of where you first spawned into the world. Is that not correct? Did that change at some point? 'Cause I just lost a lot of rare mats thanks to the flying things spawning while I was lost at sea.

Finished building the GP02... and was missing the front end of the bazooka. After upending half the house, a thought occurred to me. Having memory problems sucks. Especially when you've been on a kit for way too long and it has places to hide equipment. Presenting the world's dumbest story: #Gunpla

"Burnie Burns bought back Rooster Teeth" was not on my 2025 bingo card, wtf. RIP to every single former employee who's about to be hit by an endless stream of "Are you going back?!/GO BACK!" messages. 'Fans' of a thing can be real annoying. Just ask Ray how long he endured "GO BACK!" messages.

Got a parting shot in towards my former friend's paramour tonight. Not closure, per se, just me getting a few final things off my chest. If I could describe the melodrama involved with that idiot in four images... hmm...

I got some of these Pepperidge Farm cookies. Did not notice they were soft-baked until I bit into one! Soft-baked cookies are infinitely better than crunchy ones. ...Crunchy? Hard? What's the correct term for non-soft-baked cookies? Anyway, S-rank! www.pepperidgefarm.com/product/soft...

Bigass clodhoppers. TPL was the only way that boot was gettin' lined. Thankfully it looks great in Not Extremely Zoomed In With a Flash vision. One more leg and I can start on decals. I feel like this build's been cursed. I keep getting stymied by dumb stuff. Not from the kit, mind you. #Gunpla

Always was bad at estimates. 70 hours, 19 minutes. 31 play sessions. Started January 21st, ended February 2nd, less than an hour from midnight. Don't think I'll do the DLC, but who knows. I think I'll likely upload my save to the cloud and delete the game for now, at least. One day, maybe.

Food rankings for the day so far. Cheetos Puffs Cheese Pizza: A. Would be an S if it came in Crunchy. Takis Fuego: F. Takis Blue Heat: F- ...holy shit they're both rancid. I've never eaten something that tasted so vile. The Fuego at least had the lime to cut the awful chili pepper flavor...

18 trophies left in AC Odyssey. I've been at it for 10 days, so I'm on track to beat my time for Generation Zero. I doubt I'll do Odyssey's DLC, but we'll see how I'm feeling when the Plat pops. I'm fairly confident I can get it this week. I'm so close to so many trophies popping right now...

I know this is an old kit but blimey, Bandai. If you're gonna give a color-correcting sticker, make the surrounding sticker the same color as the plastic it's going over. Top-left on the sticker sheet. Doesn't play as well due to the flash but it's dark grey. Even Sharpie's better'n that! #Gunpla

Already out the gates today with 2 more trophies in AC Odyssey. Sleeping with someone (the legendary beast quest lady) and a 5-star wanted level. I was sinking ships for wood grinding reasons and noticed I was building quite a bounty, so I stuck it out. Had a tough enemy chasing me, but I got it!

That Reese's Iced Coffee was a straight, middle-of-the-road "C" rating. I like that you can taste the coffee part, since so many flavored coffees overpower it with sweetness, but I wouldn't have been able to tell you it was peanut butter cup flavor without seeing the can. Not bad, not amazing.

It's fun being this pissed off less than an hour after waking up. Power's getting cut for 4 hours today because our power company thinks the dead of winter is a brilliant time to do busywork, we're probably not gonna be able to eat next month, it's all great.

Assassin's Creed Odyssey Platinum hunting is stealing away my desire to wake up in the morning. What a wretched game with even more wretched trophies. What asshole or assholes were responsible for ship upgrades requiring THOUSANDS of wood? Which you get 3-7 at a time btw!

Almost 14 hours into AC Odyssey. Lotta trophies from old attempts to get going but this time I'm committed to sticking with it. At least 'til I get the Platinum. Only two sessions outta like 7 so far where I've earned trophies, and it's only been a single one each. But it's a long game. Slow goin'.
