Note: There will be spoilers. If you'd rather play the game yourself, do so. Finishing up LoveChoice, a game I started last month and enjoyed...the first story, at least. There are three stories in total, with the second tackling a long distance relationship. Something I am very familiar with; all my relationships have...

I talk a lot about my backlog, but not enough about the games I've played and loved (or didn't). I talk about them more frequently on Mastodon, but get very little, if any, feedback. So I figured: may as well save that energy for blog posts, as I end up writing blog length posts over there (5000 character count on my...

FLIES FLIES FLIES — An episodic VN about a guy who wakes up as a fly, and has to enlist the help of his ex-boyfriend and dads. There are three out of six episodes right now. It's a fun(ny) queer game, and a welcome distraction from the ongoing horrors of the world. Fostering Apocalypse — I watched Manlybadasshero's...

So, as an autistic who can't mask for shit, I've had to be creative to make ends meet. Finding a job hasn't always been so hard; used to be I only went 2 months max without a job. Lately it’s been closer to 8 (oof). I have been applying for a competitive position in healthcare as a surgical sterile tech, and after...

This isn't about politics, but electricity. We lost power Friday afternoon, just minutes before we were considering ordering groceries. Normally I'd go early in the morning, on a weekend, but we'd run out earlier than expected. We were trying to be frugal and NOT order from our usual food places. With the power out for...

I originally started this draft rambling about my reluctance to get a cellphone (they were just emergency devices for this friendless introvert), and how it took me forever to get a proper smartphone. And that’s when it hit me: I was lugging around basic touchscreen and simpler phones from my early to late twenties,...

Oh boy, I've been wanting to publish this for awhile now, but the whole thing has been so damn frustrating and exhausting. And I'm still very salty about it. I even kept track of my notes on the situation. Enjoy! My girlfriend originally sent in a request back in mid November of 2025, when the lights in the ceiling fan...

Ascension: Transition and Silver — I haven’t read Roadside Picnic, which I’ve seen other reviewers insist this game was partially inspired by, so I can’t comment on that. But I will say it’s a wonderful trans allegory. Short, too. It can be finished in an hour and a half, though it took me nearly four cause I wanted all...

I've used several book tracking apps in the past, including a brief stint with GoodReads, Storygraph, and others. I'm currently using Hardcover, which I originally loved for its design and features. But now I'm starting to...just not feel it as much. I am curious to see what others can do with its API, but I think I...

I’ll be going through my backlog in alphabetical order for now, so some titles may be more recent than others. These first few games for sure are. There are a few VNs up ahead that I may skip for now, especially for the sake of reading order in series (looking at you, SciADV), but I’ll cross that bridge when I come to...

Starting small, with diet! Cutting down on my meat consumption has been easy. I was slightly tempted to order chicken in a wrap when we ordered out, but it was easy to suppress. Instead, I settled for the healthier option: a veggie wrap with hummus, rice, black beans, romaine lettuce, and onions, yum! Reminding myself...

But that's just the healing process, right? The body is healing itself, the last of the anesthesia is fleeing, and all I can do is keep up with my medication and stay hydrated. I unfortunately got less than three hours of sleep last night, due to discomfort and facial pressure. Had a really bad bout of nausea later that...
