What I’ve Been Up To (May 2025)

As I've decided to combine my blogs, I'm still kind of trying to decide if I should combine my occasional, "What I've been Playing" and "What I've Been Doing" posts. Or if I should do one post for each. I post them irregularly anyway, so it doesn't really matter that much in the end. Gaming Let's go with Updates on what I've been playing, from my usual suspects, for now. Infinity Nikki I'm not sure where to even start here. I still WANT to play Infinity Nikki, I still WANT to enjoy the game, but something just feels… off… with…

I have seen episodes here and there for sure,…

Star Trek Discovery – Season 1

I have been mostly avoiding the newer Star Trek shows. One, I was under the mistaken impression that they were either part of the New Movies timeline, which I dislike, or they were yet ANOTHER new Timeline. It does not help that Discovery really, REALLY feels like they initially intended for it to be a new new timeline. Everything about this show really feels way more advanced than other Trek shows, which is way weird because on the timeline of Trek Show continuity, it's second after Star Trek Enterprise. It happens roughly 10-15 years before Star Trek TOS. I am…
