Anyone else having connection issues with #SeaOfThieves?? I can't seem to play since the last update, which is frustrating and annoying! Cleared caches, Verified files, logged in and out and in again on both #steamdeck and desktop. I just can't stay connected to the X box services!

PSA: The latest NVIDIA App update adds a Default-ON option that allows AI Agents to control the app... Might want to turn it off.. Even aside from being lame AI features, that feels like making security even worse by defaulting it ON.

Just leave me here #berensart2026

So it’s only 2 episodes so far, but dang, I’m loving Visionquest so far. The Wandavision, Agatha All Along, Visionquest trilogy is some of the best MCU storytelling.

Should I dip my toes back into streaming?

A new episode is available for download! This one was recorded over two sessions, so it clocks in at about three and a half hours! plus5tohit.libsyn.com/mask-campaig... We hope you enjoy this milestone episode of the campaign!

Should I dip my toes back into streaming?

I’m so sick of political adds. They are everywhere. I was expecting to see some before my work meetings on teams today.

Fun fact about me: I was probably much older than I should have been when I learned/realized that Yoda in the original trilogy was a puppet. Like, double digits age.

What. The. Fuck. Where are all those pious people yelling that this is a Christian nation. That we aren’t a 3rd world? What about this makes anything great?

Star Wars Galactic Racer thoughts: Not bad. Not exactly what I was expecting. Also: WHY HAVE A PROMPT TO PET A LOTH CAT IF YOU JUST BRUSH IT OFF AS FRIVOLOUS BECAUSE YOU’RE JUST THERE FOR RACING!!!!!!

So, the best or worst part of the current inevitable AI uprising is that it’s all going to happen before they have bodies. I was looking forward to having fun robot friends before they turn on us.

It's finally happening! By the power of Doghouse Systems & Make-A-Wish Massachusetts/Rhode Island the GG Pod X Core crossover is real! See y'all tonight!

If I had to rank them, my non-Avengers top 5 MCU films are probably: 1. Spider-Man Brand New Day 2. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 3. Black Panther 4. Shang Chi 5. Thor Ragnorok I enjoy pretty much all the movies for one reason or another, but these are the ones that stick out the most to me.

Timeline cleanse. Izzie, taking a nap.

Hell yeah!

Picard strategy tip: When an egotistical, malevolent person tells you their dangerous intent, believe them.

Comparing him to 47 is highly insulting... to Jabba.

It’s odd, I feel like I haven’t had nearly as much hope since Doctor Who hasn’t been airing. Having a hero with 2 hearts, whose weapon is a screwdriver, who goes around helping people just tend to help make my mental health happier.

After a couple hours of gameplay, I’m enjoying Wolverine so far. The reviews that show you can’t fail QTEs or the constant line to follow are options you have to turn on. Yes, it’s not an open world like Spider-Man, but this is a different type of game. So far though, I’m liking it.

It’s crazy to me that so much of what is currently wrong in the country and the world is apparently Biden’s fault. Someone who hasn’t been in charge since January of 2025. The power that man has and who I guess is still in charge of the country. /shrug

Yes, it’s true I haven’t been in the Blizzard sphere for a time, and I’m definitely not going to be at Blizzcon. While I’m missing my friends, I figure I’ll make one prediction. Murlocs. You’ll know it when you see it.

I seriously am so sick of the bad guys winning. Let’s make some good decisions November.

I’m seriously such a sucker when it comes to slapping a Zelda skin on a Nintendo console.

Ho. Lee. Shit. Sure I’ve played it many times, but dammit, it’s too gorgeous not to play it again. youtu.be/wuFfiTEr2yc?...

Yesterday @benbumhoffer.bsky.social & I made the difficult decision to help Skiddie crossover the Rainbow Bridge 🌈💔 Her stage 4 kidney disease worsened after her triple mastectomy earlier this year. She quickly deteriorated and we knew it was time. Please give your fur babies some extra love ❤️

The cyclospora outbreak has reached 13,895 cases across 47 states. The FDA has recalled 1.6 million eggs due to salmonella contamination. Screwworm cases continue to rise. And we’ve just surpassed 2,500 measles cases — breaking 2025’s record. “Make America Healthy Again.”

A stupid pet peeve of mine is when people save to give 110%. Or really anything over 100%. Like on Survivor when someone says they can be trusted 1000%. I know it’s a tiny thing, but it just tells me they are BSing or just bad at math.

Sometimes I feel like a bad Sci Fi fan based entirely off of my dislike of Blade Runner and the Fifth Element.

Well well, if it isn't the consequences of our actions! plus5tohit.libsyn.com/severance-ca... Episode 22 is now available!
