I bought my niece Stardew Valley, sight unseen, for Xmas. Had to do a “buy it from Amazon and write the code in her card” end around to do so. Worth it?

She had 30 hours in game last I checked.

💪good uncle-ing🎮

Realizing that “Turn it On Again” by Genesis and “Money City Maniacs” by Sloan are quite similar songs, which makes sense since Merlin / @hotdogsladies is the reason I’ve gotten into both of them. 🎵

for real though, this playlist has a description of “has it really been a decade?” and yeah….

…it’s an apt (apt!) question.

Throwback Thursday on Spotify 🎵

Ok fine, thanks to the Throwback Thursday Spotify list I remembered there’s at least one Drake song I like. 🎵

I will always think that Starship is singing “stand and stomp” forever

Ugh, Bears.

That poor, poor kicker.

I’ll never stop loving that weirdly harsh “My!” before “how you have grown” in “Brown Eyed Girl”. 🎵

I realize i caused a slight kerfuffle yesterday about webmentions @amit @jack @vasta ; I’ll try to articulate what I can sometime before Monday. ☺️

OMG this Northwestern game!!!

Closing out the year by finally finishing the original arc of the Adventure Zone. I’m so glad I’m finally getting to it! So, so good.

Great post from @vasta on a year of kindness. ☺️

Drinking a stout, eating an amazing meal my boo made, and watching a Price is Right documentary?

Why do I ever complain about anything?

♥️♥️♥️

Little date with myself tonight

Stardew Valley, providing some pretty good wisdom earlier this week.

…what can’t this game do?

Reading the Stardew Valley Reddit more often has been a delightful and good decision! ⭐️🐷

Color Me Badd: deep Wikipedia facts.

“Alcohol may have been a factor.”

Growing concerned that the Stardew Valley soundtrack is going to throw off my last.fm, b/c it’s got so many short tracks (and is so good)

I have a very hard time with this because of my history with this song BUT ALSO there’s a Carly version.

Best Versions Of ‘Last Christmas’ - Billboard

This arrived today because I had no chill about the idea that it could sell out. Stardew! 🎵

Been listening to the Sound Opinions year end list since high school. Always some gems I missed. overcast.fm

Good lord the new episode of Do By Friday is so good.

Today’s two big accomplishments:

• making a blue background show up behind some other components
• buying a pink cowboy hat in Stardew

…so uh, how’s your day?

As a child of the Midwest, I still maintain that a “beanie” is one of those hats with a propeller on it that a cartoon kid would wear.

NU playing Ohio State for the Big Ten championship. We’ve lost 30 of the last 31 vs this fucking team. I was there for the 1. Rushed the field from the upper deck. Go ‘Cats!
