I often tell myself "this time, I'm going to skip fast travel". But then I run in to quests that expect you to warp half way across the map and back a dozen times and I give up. Are there games like Oblivion that don't have free fast travel and don't have quests that assume you'll fast travel?

Murray is keeping warm in a sunbeam

The @nytimes.com cares about Maria Bartiromo quitting (or being fired, I don't know) a lot more than anyone ought to be, weirdos sending push notifications over it

Murray is such a crybaby (at the vet to get his ears and eye checked out, and it's just about the worst thing ever)

Shocking fact! Our boy here has never once eaten. He's so hungry and he doesn't even know what food is like.

Murray is patiently waiting for us to sit down for dinner

I don't have much vocal range so I thought I'd speak-"sing" Cake's The Distance at karaoke. I forgot how many words this song has, it was probably a mistake. (No slight on Cake, it's just that it is very speakable for laymen such as myself)

Murray is a hide and seek pro!

Overnight zoomies really wiped him out. I am also quite tired.

Nothing quite beats the feeling of seeing it rain *before* you go outside to water the plants

We disturbed Murray a little, but not enough get him to move. So we needed to make the bed around him.

I'm outside and Murray is inside. This is very concerning.

Where do y'all go to find good upcoming board games/card games on Kickstarter? Reddit/FB groups are out for obvious reasons. Are there trustworthy Discord servers or old school forums?

"If I had to pay more tax, I couldn't afford to buy used clothes!"

Finally saw Friendship last night -- the bit where Tim Robinson's son was playing a flight sim while on the phone killed

Moonlighter is such a cozy game for me, perfect for a handheld system. 2 will be a day one buy.

if i'm being honest, i knew all along that eating a whole pizza for lunch was a mistake

There are people on the roof! It is alarming!

Murray and Frankie trying to keep warm

Frankie's here with the big yawn

My wife is the star of the new Netflix docuseries: Manatee Queen

Saw a "wild" fancybird yesterday -- some folks released them or lost them a long time ago and I guess they're thriving. Also, I have a confession: I thought they were like chickens, basically flightless, however we spotted them in trees. TIL.

"Looking forward" to the upcoming New York Times piece lamenting the money spent complying with court orders to remove illegal Trump signage

I think he likes me

It is time to play

His brain truly is made of shrimp

I'm a firm adherent of the "out of sight out of mind" philosophy of life. Also I forgot my backpack at a restaurant, damn it.

Murray and Frankie taking turns in the Costco box -- best day ever

Murray is starting 2026 with a bang, living his best life

This is Murray's "don't stand up" look

that lil tail hook

In retrospect, it was a bad idea to convince JD Vance that he had to apologize for being white

that moment when you realize the first two bands aren't *openers* but are actually doing full sets i am so fuckin old

I found myself nodding along at this. Especially the part about the anti-alarmists not having strong values and how they treat everything as a game, even going so far as to use the term NPC to describe anyone that does not look, think, and move like them.

I need a book curation site ala Goodreads that offers a way to filter by ratio of comma to period (and/or the word "and" to period). A high ratio makes the book incredibly hard to read, IME. I constantly have to read each sentence forward and backward to see if I understood everything.

The Final Fantasy IV pixel remaster is such a nostalgia bomb. The updated music is perfect, right in the feels.

chat how many doctors and experts that i don't know should be in the room when i get my weekly cognitive test?

I think Indivisible's messaging is unclear in general. Asking us to contact our do-nothing, do-wrong representatives redirects energy away from the plan to primary those representatives, IMO. As the kids say, make it make sense.

this is a real result when searching "Seattle cults"

my eyes suck

Amazon's Alexa chat bot really gets me

ho ho ho
