💀

got my last re9 trophy. had to beat the game in 4 hours and i did it in 2 hours 20 minutes!

ladies and gentlemen, mogwai

i routinely have games / shows / albums that fall into my subconscious during certain seasons. and for whatever reason spring is MGS5 season.

Try and rain on our parade...

Well, you can't get all of us

RAIN!!!

...

See you tomorrow.

taking a moment to pat myself on the back. over 2 years since i cut back. i still smoke from time to time (only @ rectangles 😅), but less per year then i used to smoke every day or 2. no cravings. no need to hit it before every social interaction. addiction is a bitch, but it can be beat.

pretty wild how insanely good resident evil 9 is. the way it jumps back and forth between horror and action is a masterclass in tension and release. just when you start to get used to the "scary" it goes full action-mode, priming you to be scared again later. honestly hard to put down.

grisled old leon really doing the work for me. can't wait for a weekend of re9 starting friday!

goddamn

feeling brave & experienced enough to paint my hero quest minis now. and the weather is finally nice enough to spray prime them!

Ottawa is melting and under all that snow was videogames...!

hard to think of a better example of "you may not believe in class war, but billionaires know they're in one" than this

...you know!! you might be onto something here.

there's something about this time of the year that makes me want to re-watch every Godzilla movie

A short Montreal visit, yet reaffirming that this city is the bestest.

Remembering how cops tossed Kyle Rittenhouse - who was open carrying a semiautomatic rifle - a bottle of water and told him, “We appreciate you… we really do”

2025 was equal parts awful and fun. the world continues to fall apart but i had some adventures in between.

in 2026 i'm hoping to tilt the fun scale. i'm DMing d&d. i'm painting things. i'm building things. i'm writing music. i'm getting back to me-things.
