I'm cleaning out my shed and reviewing my robot hoard... and it turns out the roof has been leaking on a bunch of my stuff and also mice ate their way into one of the boxes, nothing is like biologically "gross" or anything, more like it needs the loving care of a […]

I think I am getting rid of a bunch of my Combiner Wars and Titans Return stuff. Several of the boxes it was in got wet and a lot of it just needs a good clean but I'm not fucking with it anymore.

I secretly suspect that "What if Draco, but Girl Malfoy" is some soft astroturfing - astroterfing? - by HBO's marketing department to get people interested in the new TV series and hopefully trick us all into ignoring the terrible horrible crimes against humanity (not metaphorical) that JKR has […]

I feel like, in the years to come, people are going to have to get good at opening these fucking things, because we have "graded" a ton of shit people do not actually care about that has no actual value and was just being used as a tool for the wealthy to fleece […]

Remember the video game Descent? That really felt like it was going to be a big thing, like the start of a franchise. But I guess once it launched, it was... all down hill from there.

Entirely different Video Game Idea: A Fighting Game, ala Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter, but it's entirely in Corporate Memphis art style, and the "stages" are all advertisements and motivational posters and powerpoint presentations.

A graphic showing off multiple things designed in Corporate Memphis style, wich consists of featureless characters in bright colorful but design-less clothing doing various activities.  If art had a flavor, this would be unflavored gelatin.

In Acquisition mode, you're exploring the world, solving puzzles, and participating in some light combat. You can do things like loot ancient ruins to locate lost books, or get items needed to complete trade quests (to get more books) or items needed to repair damaged books or unlock/uncurse […]

RPG Idea: You are a librarian attempting to collect books in a cozy fantasy post-apocalypse setting. Gameplay is split between library management and book acquisition. In Library Management mode, I imagine it plays sorta like the Atelier or "dungeon shop" games, where you're placing shelves […]

Nintendo needs to do a "New Mario All Stars Collection" that gives us the DS, 3DS, and Wii games.

Text reads "you'll become more conservative in your thirties." then the next line says "Me in my thirties"

And underneath, a picture of a wizard (not me, this coward is using safety goggles) lighting money on fire.

Anybody within my sphere of influence have a lot of experience with eBay? There's a seller that I ran into that says in the description that shipping for an item is $5, but the *actual* shipping for the item is set to almost $15. I ran into this on a previous auction and nearly accidentally […]

I have used unholy alchemy to fuse a meme image and a possum-every-hour possum into one image of intense power.

A possum going ham on some piece of fruit.  Text over image reads

Here's my two cents, to quote the end of the Buffy episode "Fear Itself"

"Don't taunt the fear demon."
"Why... can it hurt me?"
(long pause)
"No, it's just... tacky."

The only problem I am having now is the keen, painful awareness of how many other Trails games there are out for the Switch alread. There are a LOT of them, none of them are cheap, and I want them ALL. I just need to figure out out how to get all of them without bankrupting myself.
