  1. Absolute chills at about 2:05.
  2. The coach wrecked his knee celebrating?
  3. Andor season 2 will be out April 2025
  4. From what I've seen, literally nothing that happened in the first three games matters (and in some cases, is actively shat upon), so it's a place to start.
  5. The general consensus is "I'll believe it when the credits are rolling, and not a minute sooner"
  6. Happy N7 Day! I think I will fire up my copy of the games and see if I can figure out how to play it this time.
  7. Both Clemson (fans throwing bottles on the field after a weird/bad call) and USC (fans charging the field after win) are gonna get some nasty fines this week.
  8. The soundtrack is on all streaming services, and it's actually really good. I was bopping along while picking up Mom's prescriptions earlier.
  9. Man, I'd forgotten how much more fun Kingdom Hearts II is compared to the first one. Grinding for those last synthesis materials is fun, because you're doing more and more crazy combo/drive/summon stuff. Now I remember why I was willing to work on a hard mode game once or twice back on the PS2.
  10. Read A Tempest of Tea by Hafsah Faizal, which has been promoted to me a zillion times. Unfortunately, while it was OK enough for the first 3/4ths of it, it got lazy, mushy, and half-assed for the last part, which really ruined it.
  11. https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/238960/view/4548165155602563570?l=english For the two of us who play Path of Exile - the open beta for PoE2 has been delayed until the beginning of December, due to issues whipping the servers into shape. Mostly about making sure people who purchased bunches of custom glams don't lose them, and some of them are old, and backwards compatibility is never as easy as it looks on the surface.
  12. I think part of the problem with the camera in KH1 is that it reacts too strong to when you move it now. Like, on PS2 you used the D pad and it didn't not zip around like that at all. I've got a save at the point of no return and may go back to it and fiddle with some settings, but good lord it's bad when you're trying to keep up with a boss and vertigo kicks in because of how the camera is wildly flailing about. I got past the first town in CoM, and I Do Not Like this system, at all. I think I'll just pass on this. Apparently they couldn't import the fighting for 358/2, so it's just all the cutscenes. Which is... actually kinda not bad. Saves me having to go look for them on YouTube. And, to the surprise of no-one, Diablo 3 crashed hard about 30 minutes into the new season. LOL my poor computer can't take this.....
  13. Playing Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, and somehow Squeenix made the bad camera in the first game EVEN WORSE on Steam. It's gotten me killed so many times I've given up trying to beat it. Next, I try to see how long I last playing Chain of Memories. I bounced off it way back when, because weird shuffling card game things over an exact repeat of the first game does not enthuse. Also, Diablo 3's new season starts this evening, might go explode some corpses over there a while.
  14. I have been obsessed with this movie since I started seeing ads for it. The cast! The camera work! I don't go out to movies anymore, but I will definitely be looking to stream it ASAP.
  15. AP gives Venom two stars, but this is the best line (minor plot spoilers in the link) : it’s a shame that we never saw more of Venom in daily life. Eddie is a journalist after all. One can only imagine how he and the symbiote might have debated more pressing concerns than the fate of the universe, like Oxford commas. https://apnews.com/article/venom-last-dance-movie-review-tom-hardy-5204cd5299173078220be0cdd3705967
  16. https://apnews.com/article/tko-endeavor-wwe-ufc-pbr-img-56f33f829709dc6e4349e6afc820b3a4 WWE/UFC parent is now buying pro bull riding stuff. Make your own jokes appropriately (or not)
  17. Karma got him - his Achilles asploded and he's out for the season https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5860484/2024/10/21/deshaun-watson-injury-achilles-season-ending-browns/
  18. I vaguely remember hearing something about that? That after Pokemon GO blew up they floated some things around? I don't remember anything coming of it, tho.
  19. The pre-load is available on X-Box, so there may be people trying to datamine spoilers.
  20. OK, so I've read the entire trilogy in three days, and I while the "love" triangle annoyed me at times, I think it ended in the most terrible heartbreaking but perfect way.
  21. So I am reading the Hunger Games trilogy for the first time ever, and why in the world did I not read this like a decade ago? My lord this is great writing.
  22. Birth by Sleep would be the next in the release order and is generally considered a great entry (I bounced off of it, but I think that was more the depression then the game itself). Has it really been 4 years since I gave up on KH3? Good grief.
  23. Read the Duggan X-Men that collects the final-ish issues. A bit uneven. I love that Ms Marvel's mutant power is that everyone likes her and she can convince anyone to come hang out help. However, at this point I really wish they would gather all the books into one massive omnibus, like they did with the X of Swords event.
  24. I actually did qualify for a bit of help, under the "Miscellaneous clean up costs" category, which is amazing and I am very grateful for it. It'll cover what I spent to restock the fridge and freezer, and leave me a bit to bribe a nephew or two with when they have a couple free hours and can come down and help me break down and move some of the larger tree limbs.
