Weekly Wrap Up (2026.01.10)

Part of the point of these dumb little entries is to be a bit motivating to you know, actually at least pretend to give a shit about things. But Jesus fuck its hard these days. I mean, have you seen the state of, just everything. Ten days into 2026 and the fucking gestapo thugs are murdering people in the streets. Its really hard to give a shit about stupid video games and toys and music when the whole fucking world is going to shit as the biggest fucking assholes propped up by the biggest fucking idiots run rip shod over…

Ok, lets start the new year off running, so I can sputter out in a day in classic fashion. This year is going to be great. Right? Right? ... Ok, its, very very likely going to be terrible. I had a fairly productive Saturday today, I swapped out the ancient bathroom fan for a nicer, quieter one.  It need some trim added to cover the leftover hole, because it's smaller than the previous one, but it's in.  It's not as easy as it seems, but not super difficult.  Remove the old fan from the housing, which means removing the discharge…

Kind of feels like an odd line up this week, and I am trying to "encourage" myself to post more individual posts on some things, like gaming. Gaming I actually have been playing the LEGO Fortnite a fair bit. Primarily with some sandboxy elements on, so I can quickly build little villages, but still fight things. I doubt this lasts very long sadly, the game play loop is just... not that deep. Especially with the material grinding removed. Anyway, I hope to post more detail on it later. Truck Sim has its Christmas event going on. The mechanics are very…

Normally this time of year I would be doing Advent of Code. This year they changed the way its run, no leader boards, less exercises. The leader boards thing seems to be somewhat in retaliation for people using AI. It removes the incentive to get done super quick. They also kind of sucked depending on your time zone. I already quit on Day 1. I got stuck on part 2, I tried, I changed things I rethought what was happening, I even maybe sort of found a problem, but I couldn't work it out. I even did my usual method…

Aye, I kind of have things to ramble about this week. Gaming I started on UFO Robot Grendizer: The Feast of the Wolves. Its been on my list for a while. Its, kind of super awesome. Big chonkey robot combat, super cheezy old school anime plot and moments. I feel like the controls are maybe a little overly complex, but I can get used to it. Its also interesting how there are so many modes of gameplay depending on what is going on. Grendizer is a giant robot, but there is also a flying Space mode for when Grendizer combines…
