I rankle at the term "queer fiction" or whatever.

Why does having one or sixteen non-cis-het characters mean you're writing "queer" fiction? It's more representative of actual humans.

So really, the rest of it is "straight fiction"? Or maybe "closets required" fiction?

How have we not moved on from the Comics Code Authority/Watershed/etc.?

(Shout out to "I don't gay-park my car", the OG of this rant.)

Saw the new Forza career trailer. The new physics and AI options look great. However Turn 10s desire to overall the vehicle upgrade system looks awful. Needing to grind out every car you buy ? I can see now people getting ripping made about the loss of agency . GT7 made less changes and got lots of flack. I could see this translating to microtransactions . I don’t believe games are as play-tested by fans as they claim.

So I saw that whole viral "put a boiled egg in a smallish glass, cover the mouth, shake the shit out of it, voila, peels in one easy go," and kept forgetting to implement it or about it.

Had eggs left, decided to boil them to make egg salad sandwiches. I decided, what the hell, I'll try that egg-glass-shake thing.

I am so mad at myself for not trying it sooner. Eggshell literally fell off the egg in one touch. I peeled a dozen in under 5 mins

I went looking for EQ II's Frostfell theme, as I am about to run an in-person Christmas one-shot on Dec. 17th, and I thought that music is the perfect Christmas music.

Then I got sucked down into the EQ II Original theme music and man, the nostalgia for that game--as painful as it was when you weren't in a guild or group--during its heyday in 2004-2006 is real. It's main theme will never not make me want to stand up and punch life in the face.
