Go Back! To The Social

I’ve been mulling some things over, thinking about how I like Akkoma, but don’t really like how there’s multiple points of contact I have to check in order to keep things up-to-date. Plus, updating Akkoma itself, like, the backend, is more involved than I feel like dealing with. And then,...

I'm Tired Of People Pretending To Hate Super Mario Bros (1993)

I get it. You want Super Mario Brothers in its on-screen form to be identical to the games. You want to see a spaghetti eating pudgy guy in a red suit running through a CGI world of turtles and dinosaurs. And, for all intents and purposes, you’ve got that. You’ve...

Onward To Cosmic, And Then Back To Gnome!

It’s been a couple of years since I upgraded from a soon-to-be out of support Windows PC, to a System76 Pop!_OS PC, and it’s been pretty great ever since. I’ve been … aware of System76’s updated “COSMIC” desktop environment for quite some time, but never felt it was necessary to...

404 Not Found

I spend a lot of time thinking about what I want to write. I have a couple of books I’m working on, sure. But it’s the blog writing I like to be 100% consistent with, and yet … I’m not. It’s not that I lack topics to jot down thoughts...

Dusk Incarnate is Rising from the Grave (And She’s Meaner Than Ever)

A couple of weeks ago, on one of those quiet December nights when the year is wheezing out its last breath, I opened a folder on my PC I hadn’t touched since 2017 (that’s traveled hdd transfer to hdd transfer to cloud transfer, and so on). Inside was 3000 Miles...

She Bleeds Subspace: Meeting the Astraea

I’ve been carrying this sci-fi world in my head for years now—quietly mapping it, loving it, letting it grow. Writing a whole book feels like wrestling a leviathan, and yeah, sometimes I wonder, “Does anyone even read books anymore?” But that question doesn’t matter. Art is for you first, readers...

My Return to Writing Fiction

Returning to writing, and I mean, in fiction, is something I’ve been struggling with for quite some time. It’s not that I struggle to think up worlds, and characters, and scenarios. No, that’s all in my head, all of the time. It’s translated into the music I’ve made, and the...

This is Me, Wrapped, for 2025

It’s the end of the year, and I’ve done a lot! Of course, I also had a list of things I wanted to do in my Apple Notes, and uh … I actually don’t think I did even one of them. Seems, “Get more serious about dating and dating apps”...

I Bought and Played the Banned Horror Game: Horses

It’s not very often we see games get banned from the likes of Steam, or even Epic Games Store. Heck, Steam is well-known for hosting some of the most depraved content you’ll ever see from a game vendor, such as: Furry Hitler, Hitler Waifu, Heal Hitler, SEX with HITLER, Furry...

My Bad Habits Threaten to Catch-Up with Me

Since I was seventeen, I’ve been a smoker. I should warn you, this whole post is about nicotine, smoking, and addiction, and if that’s something you don’t want to read about, click away. But, I smoked for a long time, even tried dip, early e-cigarettes, and nicotine gum. Eventually, vapes...
