It is disturbingly difficult to tell noises the cat makes from noises Chocobos in Final Fantasy Rebirth make.

AI hasn't made the spammers any smarter. They still can't manage a mail merge properly. .si address too. Reminded me to automatically bitbucket those.

Sauce is simmering, almost time to assemble the lasagna 😋

Every time I carry the kitten(*) from momma cat's food back to her own, the LOOK I get. "Whyfor have you betrayed me Father?" (*) The Daddy's girl that @jenbooks.bsky.social can't often touch.

Powerwash Simulator is the GOAT of putting you to sleep (complimentary)

ARRGGGHHH. New No Man's Sky Expedition starts today, new Fallout 76 Season starts next week. Why does it have to be this way.

How the kitten came into the kitchen when I opened the pantry (dramatization)

Where are all the articles on PS+ games being early? There's plenty on it being "late" when the first Tuesday is the 7th

2/3 of the way through Spider-Man 2, so it was time to start thinking of my next game. Hey would you look at that, Phantom Liberty is on sale @gog.com

You’ve been kidnapped but the main character of the last TV show you watched is coming to rescue you. I'm doomed.

Given Taco Bell's reputation, I assumed this was an Onion article at first.

If only he knew someone who get could rid of illegal tarrifs bsky.app/profile/schi...

In @fallout.bethesdastudios.com apparently 5+5 = 8. 9991/10000 XP for challenge. Caught two fish at 5 each, and only at 9999.

I have never seen a cat so evenly split between attention driven and food driven. At least it makes it somewhat convenient to keep her from the kitten food, just keep scritching her.

Looks like the Emperor of Glass milestone in #NoMansSky is buggy. Couldn't advance it at all, quitting the game didn't help. Leaving the system and going back finally did. On to Phase 3.

The @fallout.bethesdastudios.com infestation challenges suck molerat balls. Those are going to be an instant reroll for me from now on.

Dreamed of Henry Cavill as the next Dr. Who. He tried to convince potential companions that the TARDIS was a time machine by showing them lots of pristine, in package 1st edition D&D miniatures. When he was done, he'd open them and manually worry them to make them look the correct age.

Switching between C# and Kotlin every 10 minutes or so does not really help my sanity.

You might want to look at the Black Jacket bundles @valvesoftware.com. Discount looks wonky

Whose bright idea was it to make brown kitty litter?

Momma cat was being affectionate this morning, rubbing back and forth against my legs, then did the headbutt collapse thing on my foot. One of the kittens was "Oh, all right. I'll be nice to the Foot Monster" and settled on my foot. Then she looked up and saw it was attached to someone and ran.

Really @fallout.bethesdastudios.com? I re-roll "Complete a Daily Operation" and the oh so helpful "Complete a Daily Operation while in a costume" comes up. ARRRGGGHHHH

Kitty's first slack message

Happy 25th anniversary @jenbooks.bsky.social Back at the beginning of the month when we were only semi-seriously looking for a new cat I joked that we might be getting some on our anniversary. Well, today's the day and apparently the 25th is Siamese, we're picking them up later.

Of course. I'm getting close(ish) to the end of FFXVI and Infinite Wealth is going on sale. Apparently I'm never going to clear my backlog of big RPGs

You missed an edge case @xbox.com. The "connect a controller" dialog apparently accepts B as a cancel even though there isn't a UI button. The dialog closes and reopens because you haven't connected a controller, even though you used the controller to cancel.

Trying to punch through ignore on two contact numbers at 8 AM for something that isn't time sensitive is a REALLY REALLY good way to get me to stop doing business with you.

No Man's Sky expedition finished. I like the new mechanics, but I don't really appreciate being forced to stay on one planet using only the Colossus for transport.

Crafting and scrapping the pipe guns for the @fallout.bethesdastudios.com weekly challenge is giving me flashbacks to Skyrim

They nerfed @xbox.com reward points again. I was going by inertia before, but I'm done now, this was just the final straw. Whatever points I happen to get is what I happen to get. No more using bing for game searches, no more mobile app.

Just finished the new Saint's Row game. I've played all of the others except for the first and Agents of Mayhem. It was a perfectly fine SR game, I don't understand why it got all the hate. Not perfect by any means, but enjoyable enough.

Well I'll be. The original notepad is still in Windows, accessible if you uninstall the crappy new one.

Bing is really at the top of its game when it uses AI to create those daily quizzes.

Slightly diminish a band: Maybe

Have you bullshitted this week? Have you tried to bullshit this week? www.arcamax.com/thefunnies/b...

@gamedle.wtf FYI, the web page is not even in the first page of results on Bing on a search for either "gamedle" or "gamedle.wtf"

Tried MS Solitaire for the first time since my Game Pass expired. Holy shit, the ads are annoying. I have no clue how @jenbooks.bsky.social puts up with it.

Australia, killing you for 55 million years. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Age yourself with gaming

The rerunning of the expeditions is after my game pass expires. Convenient, no FOMO on either side. www.nomanssky.com/2025/11/holi...

Definitely like the new control scheme in @powerwashsimulator.co.uk 2, but man, my reflexes from the original are going to take some time to beat into submission.

Has anyone run the numbers with less rounding? Somehow I wouldn't be surprised if the real number is 88,000 square feet.

BALL x PIT is extremely weird. It's like Space Invaders, Breakout and Vampire Survivors had a baby. 👍Would recommend.

WTF @gamepass.xbox.com?

HP Lovecraft might have eaten Cheez-Its

I was going to keep Gamepass Essential to be able to play a particular game with my wife. Turns out we can get it on PC for less than two months of Essential. After 17 years of Gold and GamePass, buh-bye @gamepass.xbox.com. I'm the type of whale they liked, but enough is enough.

Wow, @xbox.com has managed to do something I didn't even think was possible. Make me think "Maybe it's time I actually worked on my backlog"
