Hello, I'm back (from Thursday)
Added 2024-05-13 10:50:10 +0000 UTCHello everyone,
I am slowly emerging from The Hiatus and should be back streaming and making let's play videos from Thursday.
My time away has been restful, if not necessarily fun, so it'll be nice to get back to work. Thank you again for your understanding.
While we're here, we may as well do the well established newsletter format. Please enjoy
Three things I've been enjoying lately
1. Castle Rat - a new band that describes itself as Interdimensional Plague Metal. The debut album is honestly fantastic
2. Love Lies Bleeding - I went to see it in the cinema with a friend and we had a brilliant time. Kristen Stewart and Katy O'Brian are phenomenal
3. Little Kitty, Big City is a lovely video game. It's short, but it's really delightful and the writing is excellent. Along with that, Dredge (my second playthrough) and Animal Crossing I'm using my switch quite a lot at the moment
Usual questions
How's work?
See above!
How's Watson?
On top form at the moment - she and I are both battling the heat, which mainly means keeping to the shade while we're on walks, but as far as I can tell she's loving life.
How's blood bowl?
The season is in full swing and my team is doing dreadfully, thank you! I'm playing Snotlings this year - they're widely regarded as the worst team in Blood Bowl. It is very good fun.
That's all from me for now, but I'll see you very soon

Glad youβve had a chance to rest and gave yourself the time you needed. And thanks for the SSRI/hydration reminder on Twitter. My self care regimen is less good.

2024-05-13 13:05:34 +0000 UTCWelcome back! I honestly appreciate that you take breaks when you need to. It's so much more healthy than forcing yourself to work without rest, and it reminds me to plan time off from work as well.

2024-05-13 11:43:56 +0000 UTCHi, glad to see you back! I've just started Little Kitty Big City and it appears to be quite a long game from my point of view because I have the attention span of said kitty and have spent an hour so far just knocking things off shelves. It's... strangely therapeutic. Take care x

2024-05-13 11:24:40 +0000 UTCHey Johnny - glad you're feeling more relaxed! If you are looking for a chill game to play on a stream at some point, I don't know if you've tried Dave The Diver - a cute little pixelart RPG with roguelike elements... I've been having a lot of fun with the game...

2024-05-13 11:10:21 +0000 UTCWelcome back! Pleased to hear yr well!! Celebrated my 43rd Solar Revolution this weekend, the highlight being Mothers Day when for first time a lot of my cousins from my paternal side of the gene pool showed up at my Mama's and we all had a blast! So much fun I missed the concert I planned on attending - but while show-going used to be my top priority I'm much more comfy these daze staying home, reading Comics and laughing at/with friendly YooToobers (Normal Adult Luke picked up some of the slack during yr short sabbatical!) STAY GOLDEN!

2024-05-13 11:03:01 +0000 UTCLoved Little Kitty, Big City. Put it on my next to play list as soon as I saw it was coming out and don't regret a single second of it. Can't help but worry over your mental health. Speaking from experience, it may be better to take on less work overall rather than only resting when your crashing.
