@scalzi.com I just got to the video watch after the fire at Holloway's compound in Fuzzy Nation and I need to set it down for the night. I'll continue tomorrow, but that hits a bit hard this week.

QTP with a gif of your favorite Final Fantasy character

I've done it. Got Archipelago stood up with 3 games (Hades, Hollow Knight, Refunct). Items mixed between all the games! This is also mostly default settings, so Hades started on like... 46 heat. Which is WHOOF on a brand new save file.

My first actual console was a Sega Genesis because for the NES generation, I had a Commodore 64.

This is how I find out about @craigschaeferbooks.com's inspiration...

Date yourself with a snap of your first ever compute. Not sure which was first. I expect it was the Apple ][e, but the first one I spent significant time with was the Commodore 64.

I've just completed the Path of Pain in Hollow Knight. Holy carp. That was a bit much.

@craigschaeferbooks.com I'm not all the way through yet, but every time I read "Battle of Broadway," I just see the Sharks and Jets facing off in West Side Story. Which makes it being a defining event for the history in your world... Great. Wouldn't change a thing.

After following @seananmcguire.bsky.social for so many years, I'm still occasionally surprised to find that she's four books deep on a series I haven't even seen before. At this point, I have to wonder if I'm slipping between alternate realities where new series just appear.

Using a Star Trek GIF, post where you’re at right now. 🖖🏻

Repost with your favorite fantasy games.

Desciribe your favorite games poorly: The voice in my head is cooler than I am. Best friend dies, passes on medical issue. I try to compensate by bolting tech to my body, this can't end badly. Me and 107 of my friends are going to fight with my best friend who didn't invite me to his wedding.

@craigschaeferbooks.com I absolutely adore Abraham Chalk.

@scalzi.com I'm obviously a latecomer, since I just started the Old Man's War books a few weeks ago. I just finished Zoe's Tale. It's easily my favorite. My grandmother died just as I was starting ZW, so the points where Zoe feels loss and says goodbye were particularly felt. Thanks for that.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

If you see this, repost with your model of positive masculinity. Samuel Vimes.

@richardkadrey.bsky.social I've never been so jealous about how other people start their careers.

Yes, cheese is at least as remarkable as any magic a witch can do. This was well established by Sir Terry Pratchett in the Tiffany Aching novels, with Horace.

If you see this, quote with a robot that isn’t from “Star Wars,” “Star Trek,” “Dr. Who,” or “Transformers.”

Just a reminder

... I just realized I need to know how @seananmcguire.bsky.social feels about the Final Fantasy MTG set.

I am advocating for due process for Abrego Garcia.

@richardkadrey.bsky.social Aaaaaaah! I didn't know you were here from Twitter/Threads. Glad to follow you again!

If you see this, quote with a gif from your favorite movie.

Free Mahmoud Khalil. That's the only proper course of action.

Tangled Up in Blue. Took my dad to Desert Trip in 2016, and Bob Dylan's performance has lost a lot over the years. I still got to hear him sing Tangled Up in Blue live, which made me happy.

Huh. The Pitt?

Babylon 5, fantastic. Firefly, fantastic (though we've obviously learned things about Whedon). Andor was very strong, but also gets to draw a bit on Rogue One. For a different direction... Quote with your favorite show/movie set in outer space

Post an animation style that you love

Thank you, Senator @schatz.bsky.social !

Let it go. It's easy to let life wrap you up, and spin you around, and beat you down. You can choose yourself, and if the choice is between your health/family/mental health and working through the weekend. Choose yourself.

HUGE BREAKING NEWS: Pete Buttigieg is seriously considering running for Senate in Michigan after Gretchen Whitmer says she wouldn’t run for the open seat. Smash that RT if you agree Secretary Buttigieg would make a FANTASTIC Senator!! 💙💙

I will finish Trails Through Daybreak before Trails Through Daybreak II drops. Totally. I, for sure, will.
