What I’ve Been Playing Recently

It's been a bit, so it's been a bit busy I suppose. I'm going to mostly push off my current "regular games" a bit with Fortnite and Sky. just for some discussion about what else I've been playing. Death Stranding Funny enough, this isn't the only game I'm playing at the moment with "dangerous rain". Sky has a zone of rain that harms you when you're standing in it. Though, they call it "Time Fall" in Death Stranding, and it's a Hideo Kojima game, so it's full of weird unexplained shit that may or may not eventually be explained. The…

Power Rangers Lightning Collection King Sphinx

I have a weird relationship with Power Rangers. I never was a huge fan of the series, though it actually does check a lot of boxes in my array of interests. Most of what I remember is watching the OG Mighty Morphin. I think I watched the Ninja stuff, and then I want to say Turbo was the "third iteration" and my interest kind of fell off around that time. These monsters though in the Lightning Collection Line. Everything about them really hits for what I am liking now. And I admit, I've been a bit of a sucker over…

Jakks Pacific Chaos

Along side Big the Cat, I also picked up Chaos, the villain from Sonic Adventure. I honestly don't really remember much about Chaos aside from being the villain. But he is part of my favorite cast and the figure has this really slick transparent blue going on that kind of sucked me in to picking it up. Also funny enough, while he is way more articulated than Big, it almost works less well, because he has the weird "Sonic Proportions" of big head, long feet, and skinny body that all work against making him actually pose in any sort of…

Jakks Pacific Big the Cat

I'm not super into "Sonic Lore" but Sonic Adventure has always been my favorite cast and game. One of the characters in that game was Big the Cat. His entire shtick is being big and being a cat. Well, and Fishing. Sadly, this version of Big does not include a fishing pole, but I am sure I can find something that will work later. He does come with a couple of tiny rings. I'm not exactly sure if this is the normal size for Jakks' Sonic line and it's rings, but they feel a little small. Something else he doesn't…

The Phoenix of Blogs

I had a differet, boring, snarky title for this post but then I decided to update my about page and it had the phrase "the Phoenix of Blogs" which fit way better. I feel like I have written this post before. Maybe I have, but hey, whatever, it's my post, my blog. Because Lameazoid seems to have used a cheat code for "Infinite Lives" at some point, I'm giving it yet another go. Blogging Intensifies Lameazoid was a fresh start on more personal projects blogging but I never really intended it to be a replacement for Lameazoid. It's more a…

Code Project – Python – Automated List From Reddit Comments

This is one of those quick and kind of dirty projects I've been meaning to do for a while. Basically, I wanted a script that would scrape all of the top level comments from a Reddit post and push them out to a list. Most commonly, to use on /r/AskReddit style threads like, well, for this example, "What is a song from the 90s that young people should listen to." Basically, threads that ask for useful opinions on list. Sometimes it's lists of websites or something. Often it's music. The script here is made for music but could be adjusted…

What I’ve Been Playing Recently

I wonder if those titles should be more distinct or if it even matters. Anyway, I "completed" one game this week. Actually I sort of "beat" two games, but I forget how I have counted the Fortnite Battle Passes. Let's call it one for now. The Fortnite BP technically goes to Level 200. F.I.S.T: Forged In Shadow Torch Man, that acronym. Someone really wanted it to stand for FIST. This was one of the free games from Epic over the Holidays that they push every year. It looked interesting from the animal characters and Steampunkish design then I noticed it's…
