Tonight's baffling hotel noise:
One man screaming at the top of his lungs, followed by absolutely no other noise.... At midnight.....
Nothing scarier than being in a hotel room for the first night
And the TV just.... Turns itself on to a kids channel at... *Checks time*...... 3 in the goddamn morning.....

Dozing off and suddenly you realise you recognise what song was remixed to create the background dance music......
..... It's Disturbeds cover of The Sound of Silence.....
And now I'm just baffled as to why anyone thought to make a dance remix of THE SOUND OF SILENCE....

Finished the Fallout show
Is good, I liked it a lot!!
My only complaints really are I think it could have used a few lore dump moments to explain some things to show-only viewers?
Like, would have been nice to have said something about what caps are. Mayyybbe mention the kinda fash-y nature of the Enclave?? Probably talked a litttllee bit more about what ghouls were?
Because I absolutely see a show-only being lost and confused on some of this? And you got a freshly uncanned vaultie to use for this stuff, so use her for it!!

Got one single line of blorbo thoughts just rotisserie chicken-ing it around in the ol' noggin
I decided to play Dragon's Dogma as Sel, because I remembered how mage just... sucked a bit to actually play in the original game. And then i picked a canon compliant pawn with Emma.... rather than kinda reversing the roles I played in the first game (Zah and Sel - who DID know each other in canon back then, and now Do Not)
In canon- Sel has grown up a Loner. And spent a lot of time feeling very ostracised from his peers. Hes not exactly used to people being genuinely nice to him? THEN he gets a nice healthy dose of ~TRAUMA~ - seeing everyone he does care about be killed horribly, his home torched and then imprisoned/ tortured for Fun
.... Followed by waking up in a place of healing. With people genuinely trying to look after him, make sure hes healthy and well and generally okay. They listen to him about what hes gone through, try and accommodate his requests (even if it makes the healthcare a little harder) and just generally act Very Nice to a Complete Stranger?? And this is a guy whose brain is very much Soup, with all its chemistry trying to work out what the hell its doing.
So hes kinda generally Very Protective of the people who are nice to him? Hes already lost a few once, he doesnt want to again But also.... the nice doctor lady around his age? 🥺
And then just taking this sort of base idea and then throwing over the Arisen/ Pawn dynamic.......
I havent quite thought much on Sels backstory here, because I dunno what the games going to throw at me. But i cant see it being MUCH different? Hell, hes even being thrown in jail for absolutely nothing once more!
But now the loner guy is being told to summon HIS pawn? What kind of lil buddy do you want, huh?? And i dont really think he has any idea WHO he wants - just someone to look after him? Like his brain is soup once more - he has no memories, no idea what hes supposed to be doing. Just knows he was in prison and now here? So he ends up with... a healer mage lady. Someone whose always by his side on this adventure hes kinda been forced on? Someone who picks him up when some beastie has flattened him. Tends to his wounds. Gives him magic shields. Compliments his battle prowess when they emerge victorious. HI FIVES HIM??? LITERALLY GRABS HIM IF HE FALLS FROM TOO GREAT A HEIGHT AND SHES THERE.
He would literally die for her.
Shes there to make sure he doesnt die. But he still would.
But also.... what do you do when your favourite person is kinda.... not a person? Pawns are supposed to be relatively unfeeling, mostly just getting on with what theyve been tasked to do - or serving an Arisen (if there is one). You want this person to stop calling you "master", and to treat you as a friend and equal. But they literally cant, its not in their nature
Cant work, too distracted by thoughts of the relationship between an Arisen and their Pawn

You ever sometimes wake up in ur 30s and think......
this entire life you've led so far?
you have to live it all over again, only At Work.
The total sum of everything you've lived so far, from birth, childhood, every single school year.... discovering who you are, finding your place in the world..... all of that time is ahead of you.
.... Only this time, your life barely changes. Youre just At Work. 8 hours a day. 5 days a week...... for the equivalent time of every day you've lived so far........

Playing viddy james in your lunch break seems like a good idea
You can't get a HUGE amount done, but you can make some progress after all
But you should avoid the sirens call!!
...... Because you're going to spend the remainder of your work day thinking about nothing other than putting your little dolls in the viddy jame world and playing with them.......

If i might Dragons Dogma diary a bit here:
I've largely been ignoring the main story, mostly because I dont want to get too Into It before I'm dragged away from the game for a week. So I've just been exploring around, gathering side quests and ticking them off one by one. Like, i got the coronation as my next main quest. I've had that for quite some hours now.
The other day, I found a pathway into Battahl that just... totally bypassed the checkpoint. But the enemies absolutely brutalised me, so I geared myself up. Got 2 portcrystals ready - one for when I got INTO Battahl, and one for if i needed to bail half way through the journey.
And my second attempt was successful! I am now in Battahl! The pathway even drops you off in the city itself.
And while i was there, i thought maybe i should mess around with the first hybrid vocation i've gained - the fighter/ mage spear one.
So heres me. 2 skills, level 1 on the vocation. Not knowing what the hell i'm doing. Running around a country with muuucchh stronger enemies.
Just running down paths. Eventually have someone tell me "oh no dont go there, theres a really strong enemy thats like killing everyone there!!" And im like
No im going!! ... with the intention of looking at it and noping right out of there.
.... i didnt even make it to see the big scary monster everyones warning me about (which is probably the medusa-thing from the prologue) I got murdered on the way there by... uhh a lot of different things. They pushed me off a bridge :(
It is maybe not the best idea to go traipsing around parts unknown when you are at the literal lowest level of a vocation! ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

So if anyone has any tips on how to defeat this boss, I'd appreciate it 🙏

Haha ok they're like $20 shipping to the UK
The desire to own little figures of your home made blorbos VS the fact it literally costs $40 for ONE 3cm figure.....
The real danger of having some idea of how mini painting works is knowing I could use Heroforge to make my OCs and obtain tiny little versions of them to paint
.... If it didn't cost like $20+ each 😬

There's a dragons dogma 2 quest line that only occurs when you are an archer, and it has a pretty good reward
So I swap to archer to go on this quest line. This is not a vocation I want to play
.... So of course a griffin decides to gatecrash a battle with an ogre while im here in my silly little robin hood outfit, barely knowing which end of a bow the arrows should come out of 😔
