    I'm pretty sure with a Venture Brothers avatar they wouldn't even let you past the 1st tentacle barrier at animu HQ.

    I dunno... Dr. Mrs. The Monarch is an inappropriately-sexualized cartoon waifu. It probably checks out

    I am not a Venture bros. expert but I am going to have to state that the voice of that character utterly disqualifies her as an animu.

    Like.

    Sorry, no. Animu girls moan and titter in grating high pitched tones non-stop. That's what they do.

    My brain is all fuzzy right now.

    After ten months of going in a million directions I finally have a pretty solid path to work with.

    I still have a whole bunch of ambitions, but I can funnel them now and work with more of a structure.

    It's like having a busy train station and all the sudden half the trains are no longer needed and I have to get them off the tracks so that the remaining can get to their destinations that much more efficiently.

    Quick someone send me a Japanese cat with an adorable hat.

    This pasta alla puttanesca is missing something

    Something that's in store bought sauces but isn't mere tomato

    Hrm

    that would be preservatives and sub-optimal ingredients

    also maybe non-alcoholic red wine facsimile

    Maybe, but I think it's a thing it should have

    The red wine might be it

    So last time I was playing XCOM was on my husband's desktop, and I did not realize it is an enormous game that would take hours to download, and for a second night in a row I think I am not going to be able to play it...
    Well, I could cancel my Tuesday Night League commitment in 20 minutes, but that seems mean. Well. Hopefully they'll have 11-12 players and I can go play XCOM instead.

    I wanted to play Firewatch in the morning while drinking coffee, but it didn't come out until 1 PM so I didn't play it at all.

    Maybe next week! Everybody post really slow so this [chat] is still relevant when I play.

    I had the exact same experience this morning! I pre-loaded last night and I woke up and was like "fuck yeah, Firewatch!" and then I was like "Ugh... Fallout 4 I guess."

    cadlincwalk went shopping in Costco with her family last weekend.

    Found herself, per tradition, holding samples to take home for the rest of the family.

    Realized that particular family tradition is what you might call a holdover from back when they were legitimately impoverished.

    I made a game! Hotline Maui. Requires mouse and keyboard.

    It isn't limited to my computer, or one browser - tried using IE on this compy, used a different laptop, and connected my phone to the home internet and this website wouldn't load on any of them if they were using the same wireless connection.

    I'm not sure TFTD is a game that is meant to be finished, only briefly experienced before you lose.

    So no I have Life is Strange, Firewatch and World of Diving (Been on my wishlist for a long time, the sale today makes it super cheap) queued up for after I finish Rise of the Tomb Raider.

    Yay, Steam?
