My problem is I forget half of what was going on and lose all momentum. At least with like Darkest Dungeon or Vampire Survivors I get some progression between runs.

But yeah I'll check that out, thanks!

I hope we do. I started working for myself and I've only got my tools on maybe 30hrs a week now, it's pretty great. Most days I can put in a solid 5 or 6 hours and be good. I want that for everyone.

Pen and paper Shadowrun was my first and still main cyberpunk game. And I really haven't played it much.

I'm a fan of the genre in general but cyberpunk games tend to be expansive dialogue-driven RPGs that my middle-aged ass ain't got time for. It's a shame, I'd probably love the writing for Disco Elysium and Cyberpunk 2077, but if I've only got so many gaming hours in a week, imma likely spend it on a roguelite or action game instead for the excitement and dopamine. Just being real.

I did go on a nice Philip K Dick spree for a while and enjoy his stories. William Gibson was difficult when I first gave Neuromancer a read and I didn't look into him farther, but I'm probably due. Another backlog for the fire.

100%. I ain't getting off this ladder to get a hammer, I'll beat that sumbitch with my drill battery if I have to

Who the fuck googles "what do roosters do" lmfao

The Ackroyd clan migrated west early, very different ethnogroup

Honestly, without the hat and shoes I wouldn't even blink if someone wore this walking around town. Neat.

No, these are electrician's hammers

That is Bingo, Bluey's little sister. She spends the entire episode mispronouncing "edamame".

It's just a fluffy tail, they're heelers.

Show solidarity with them. First things first is don't give that business any money until the workers win.

Have they talked to any union organizers, or are they going it wildcat? If they don't have real support behind them to help pay bills etc, the strike will fold quickly and likely be unsuccessful - the boss just has to outlast them. Strike funds are crucial for this reason. If the workers don't have a way to meet their needs, they'll lose.

Local social media and news outlets are good places to broadcast the strike. Talk to people at similar businesses and see if they can join the strike.

Baby Huey - Hard Times (www.youtube.com)

As a middle-aged white dude discovering Baby Huey, I feel robbed. This whole album is amazing and it should've been part of my life before. The breakdown at around 2:05 is like being electrified through my soul.

I spent all weekend racing toy cars around backyards and arcades with zero regrets.

If you're a fan of arcade racing games and haven't played a good one in a while, I highly recommend it. This game, despite having a childlike coat of paint, really doesn't mess around with the racing - you have to nail the tracks. There are three unusual buttons in Hot Wheels you don't find in many others: a "juke left" and "juke right" (square and circle), used for offensively bumping other racers off the track or into obstacles, and a jump mapped to triangle. Jumping is generally infrequent, but there are absolutely parts where you need to time it to clear an obstacle like a ledge.

Crucially, there are lots of ramps and jumps on each track, because how could it be Hot Wheels if there weren't? Which adds an interesting difficulty if you're playing on controller - if you hold forward on the stick normally to fine-tune your steering, you'll suddenly nose-dive once you leave the track. So be sure to read the course well and let off the stick once you're in the air.

Vehicle customization is basically non-existent, but getting new vehicles is pretty painless. There's a shop with five or six available at any time, and it refreshes every so often, or you can spend a small amount and refresh it yourself if you're feeling shoppy.

But there's a whole track builder too! With community tracks that look wild! I haven't really dipped my toe in that yet to be honest.

Very enjoyable, highly recommend it if you'd like Need For Speed in a Hot Wheels flavor.

I still browse the subreddit for whichever game I'm into on my phone browser and old.reddit is a must, I can't stand the different style sheets. I remember it was gonna get ended but hadn't heard about it in a while. Anyone know if that's gone now?
