    I think pChal's storytelling ability and editing team has just been so much better for his last couple of videos and I've been really enjoying his content!

    I actually think we talked about it before funnily enough!

    I'm guessing all of the promo videos they're using cheap cardboard because it's alpha testing stuff, but yeah you never know! I'm gonna see if my local TCG shop will carry it, and if not I'm gonna see if they want to order it.

    As someone who still enjoys LoL (mostly in Arena and 4fun modes) and loves TCG's in general, this is right up my alley! I hope that it's good and actually interesting. The one I've been playing recently has been FaB but it's still pretty niche.

    I think Jenna Ortega is a fun actress but I need to see her in a new type of role before I say she's great. I think besides the X/Pearl/MaXXXine stuff she's been pretty much edgy teenager for years.

    I watched Death of a Unicorn last night, and it was very fun! Definitely not the best movie I've ever seen, it's basically Jurassic Park with even more craziness sprinkled in, but I enjoyed it a lot. I don't think there's too too much to discuss with the movie though, it just kinda feel like it's a movie that exists.

    Is this true or just a rumor? I don't know the trustworthiness of the linked source in the article so not sure if reporting this as fact is totally correct, feel free to correct me if i'm wrong.

    So this isn't a huge game/franchise or anything, but I LOVED these games on the PSP. I can't believe it's rereleasing on Switch but I'm probably gonna buy them when they're out

    It's kinda funny because I was talking to my therapist about this yesterday, but funnily enough I think the reason I'm literally up at night so late is because there's comfort in the peace of nothing crazy happening after 12AM EST usually. There's comfort in not needing to check my phone to see "what crazy stuff has been going on now" so I've been sleeping every night recently at like 4AM. Definitely not great for my health but it's the little things.

    I think the side stories thing makes sense in the context of the story though, I didn't mind that too much.

    I finished Split Fiction with my friend this weekend, what an incredible experience! The story was admittedly a bit predictable but I think the build up was well done and the emotional beats hit well. The gameplay is top notch as expected from the It Takes Two company. I think the final level is incredible and might be the greatest thing I've played in gaming from a gameplay perspective in a really long time.

    We tried the

    inconsequential level spoiler not pertaining to plot. laser rooms. Room 3 is incredibly difficult but I think it's totally doable.

    Some other friends and I have been playing REPO which is hilarious fun a la Lethal Company. Golf with Your Friends also added a speed golf mode which is hilarious.

    Otherwise I've been running DnD with friends and whatnot, definitely not enough time for too many things.
