The Geoff Game Awards show was on recently, and I watched it with interest. Not for the awards because they were mostly a foregone conclusion. Not for the trailers, really, as I wasn’t expecting anything that would interest me. Not for the cringe-inducing banter, either. You would think that negates any incentive for watching the… Continue Reading
There is no excerpt because this is a protected post.
I have been a FromSoft fan for over a decade. I hated the first Dark Souls game when I finished it (Prepare to Try Edition, which included the DLC, and I vowed never to have anything to do with it again. Even playing it was fraught as I almost-quit several time and rage-quit once. I… Continue Reading
I’m branching out from talking about soulslikes to talking about pop culture in general. Why? Well, because I can, but also because it’s pretty much the same mentality. What do I mean? I mean I don’t like most pop culture in general. I have specific pockets of things I like, but in general, they are… Continue Reading
In yesterday’s post, I talked about how I had lost all enthusiasm for Ghost of Tsushima. There were reasons for that in the end of the second act, and I want to talk explicitly about it. This is the big warning that I am going to spoil the shit out of the end of the… Continue Reading

Things that are tangentially related, but not necessarily in a category of their own. Such as weddings. They are definitely related to relationships and gender… Continue Reading
I’m back to talk about being a weirdo. Here was my last post on it. I was listening to MPR on the way to and home from Cubs (I’ve gotten into Lactaid cottage cheese and lentil chips lately), and the topic was on having kids in the current US climate. The hypothesis was that people… Continue Reading
Here’s the thing about being weird. Yes, I’m doing a cold open. Here was the last post about me being weird if you want to catch up. I think this is four? Something like that. I don’t want to be normal, whatever that means. Side note: (Yes, this early!) I was complaining to K several… Continue Reading
I’m weird. This is my third post about it. I have plenty to say, so I’m going to keep going until I am done. I ended the last post by asking whether I would be normal if I could. My short answer was, “I don’t know.” For the most part, I like who I am.… Continue Reading
