I have recently been reading thought the delightful “Komi Can’t Communicate” a 13 volume manga about a young woman in school who had a serious communication disorder. She is quite literally unable to form sentences around people outside of her family, and even around them its usually a couple of words. Upon starting a new…
Science Fiction and Over tailored characters. A pointless musing.
I read a lot, not as much as some people but a book-a-week when I’m in a reading mood. I read a lot of classic (old) science fiction. I also read more comics than an adult probably should. I have also written a long form work of fiction that’s currently being edited by a friend….
Debian: Final Destination?
As I have said in many videos and Trendy Talk Episodes (stay punk!) I regretted installing Endeavor-OS when my Arch install died due to a series of unfortunate events. I should have moved to Debian here and then. This remained true for months until, this week when I ran ‘yay’ to be greeted with ten…
Book Club: Fangs by Sarah Andersen.
I think this maybe the first “comic” book that I have written about in the book-club section of the website. Fangs started life as a web-comic on a website that everyone except me has heard of called Tapas.io. Fangs is about a vampire and a werewolf who date. It’s light hearted and far deeper than…
BIOMUTANT
Ignore reviews. It’s pretty good! You know all those people who are telling you on steam-reviews and twitter that Biomutant isn’t very good? Well those people need to shut the fuck up because it’s pretty good and they are all stupid! I know… a strong stance. But honestly, Biomutant is interesting fun and deep. It…
Tales of Berseria.
Recently I have been playing a lot of Monster Hunter: Rise on my Nintendo Switch. I have greatly enjoyed getting deep into a game and learning its nuance and subtleties. But the caveat is that I have been playing Monster Hunter with a friend in co-op. Which mean when my friend isn’t around, while I…
Book Club: After Emerilia.
It was 13:00 on the 1st of June (today a time of writing) that I finally finished reading the Emerilia series. It was 11 books and I was a hair away from not only stopping reading it but putting the whole series in the bin. This is a LitRPG series. LitRPG’s are the best kind…
Book Club: Storm Front (Dresden Files 1) by Jim Butcher.
Storm Front (Dresden Files 1) by Jim Butcher. In my discord group there is a room (are they called rooms?) called #book_club where us bookish folks exchange recommendations and thoughts on, you guessed it… Books! It was there that someone reminded me about the Dresden files. It had previously been recommended to me a friend…
My Car Stereos Bluetooth Defaults.
I made a pleroma post this morning over on my pleroma instance and I figured I should expand on the issue to make is more discoverable if anyone else was having this issue. (now retired) The Problem. I drive a 2014 Nissan Juke. Its the one with the navigation screen and pointless climate control screen….
I have not played enough PC games recently.
psychology and time management.. For the first time in years my steam “recently” played (last two weeks) is down to something in the region of 3 hours. Its been a around 40 to 90 hours for years now. A combination of things has led to me playing way less. Firstly, we have Monster Hunter Rise on the…
