Grounded 2 released into early access recently so that sounded like a perfect time to play through Grounded 1. Can report, this game slaps. For people who like narrative open world survival games (like subnahtica and abiotic factor) this game is probably the best among them in my opinion. The writing is probably a very love it or hate it thing though, since the entire game is riding on 90’s nostalgia there.

Many times, but the one that got me more than any other game really surprised me: Insomniac’s Spiderman 2. Specifically the pidgeon side quest. I don’t think I’ve ever had another experience where I actually had to put the controller down for 5 minutes to stop sobbing. it was just… so beautiful but so heartbreaking…

It’s not even the saddest scene in any video game I’ve played, but I think something about swinging around, beating up bad guys, and then suddenly getting hit with this deeply personal and very real scene broke me. I strongly recommend this game if you have a ps5.

Going by favourite as “Left the most lasting impression on me” it would have to be:

1. Monster Hunter World

2. Crosscode

3. Outer Wilds

crosscode mentioned, hell yeah!

oh gosh, it’s so hard to choose, she has so mamy good songs… I’d say I’m personally partial to “We’ve never met but can we have a cup of coffee or something”, and “Let’s walk across this forest, I can feel everything being real again” though!

also can I point out her banging awesome website???

I didn’t know she did celeste music!!! It’s so good!

In Love With A Ghost

Alas we can only witness their perfect world through our imperfect lenses…

Barenaked Ladies - One Week

(I promise this is not a porn link lmao)

gonna take a couple hundred years to decipher that spellbook

Why not both?

intrusive thoughts

Used to be I never cried at anything. Ever. Then I started watching the saddest shows I could find specifically for the purpose of making me cry because I figured that wasn’t healthy. Now I’m a total crybaby and I gotta admit, I’m happier for it.

I used to be a massive weeb so most of my sad moments are from anime, but if you really want to bawl your eyes out, Violet Evergarden and A Silent Voice are my two go to picks for when I want to absolutely destroy myself.

wtf he looks sooooo yellow and smelly (I love him)

every maths professor I’ve had in college told me to use the simplest numbers possible in my answers because arithmetic is annoying.

meme format is “Hey guys” “incorrect name” “That’s not what I’m called” though the last line is covered up here.

Character is Bridget, a famous trans character from the fighting game Guilty Gear, who became a meme to misname after someone mistakenly called her “Brisket”.

massively overpowered is the name of the website lol

I’ve had a nebula subscription for a couple years, and honestly I don’t think the lifetime subscription is worth it. If you can find a deal on a year plan it’s crazy cheap, and I don’t think nebula is big enough to be certain it’ll still be relevant by the time a lifetime plan would pay itself off. Maybe if it got more popular, but its place as a more specialized type of video platform, and especially a subscription based one, makes me a bit doubtful that it’ll grow significantly any time soon.

When programming, data is stored in variables. In a weakly typed language you define a variable and you can put anything in it. Numbers, text, whatever. In a strongly typed language when you define a variable you also have to define what it can take. If you define a variable that can hold numbers, it can only hold numbers and never text or anything else.

Weak typing makes code easier to write and more flexible while strong typing makes code more secure and harder to accidentally break. It’s mostly a preference thing in the end.
