Tony Todd dies at age 69 His name might not be one you recognize, but I'm sure you've seen him in a lot of stuff

After looking for a job for over a year, I finally got two job offers. One pays more than the other (8 bucks more an hour), so obviously i'm taking the higher paying job. But man, I really was not expecting that last interview to go well enough to actually land me a job. It'll be remote data entry at a medical company. I've never done data entry, but I imagine it can't be that hard?

Zau was a great game. Just long enough to feel satisfying and ended before it became a drag. The movement and the platforming(and the boss fights) were definitely the highlights for me gameplay wise. I found the combat zones to be tedious, though

8.) Dragon Age: The Veilguard I honestly really enjoyed this game. I was skeptical early on because some of the dialogue is... questionable, but the overall story was really good and I loved the companions and their personal stories. There were some great story beats and they really went above and beyond answering most of the lingering questions from previous games while setting up for some interesting stuff that could still come if/when they do another. Getting filled in on a lot of the deep backstory type stuff was something I wasn't expecting too so that was a hell of a lore dump. The combat was a lot more fun that I thought it would be from what I had seen/read before the game came out, and though there is more I wish they would have done with it, this ended up being a LOT better than I was worried it would be after Bioware's last couple games. Basically, as a fan of the series since its inception, I have to say that some of the stuff they missed on stood out pretty starkly and where they had to cut corners stood out quite a bit and you could almost feel where they pivoted on design or story elements part way through development, but the stuff they did right made up for that pretty soundly. I was really happy with it overall. 9.) Werewolf: The Apocalypse - Purgatory Visual novel w/ some RPG elements. It is a sequel to WtA: Heart of the Forest, and though it felt shorter than its predecessor, it was still pretty enjoyable. Not the best of its kind I've played by any stretch, and the ending felt really rushed and abrupt but it seems like it has decent replay value which is always nice. I think I liked the first one more overall, but I still enjoyed this one as well.

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice definitely felt like they had 2 movies that they decided to smash into 1. Like, it wasn't even a matter of them not having quite enough story for either. Those were two potentially full length movies that could have each been solid in their own right and they just went 'fuck it' and squished them both into one 2 hour movie. X_x

James Earl Jones passes away at age 93

By the way, not sure if you knew @dr. b but they officially announced a Sakamoto Days anime!

God I gotta do so much catching up. I've been deep in the wrestling train for a month or so and then I was on a backup phone for like 3 weeks that I didn't have the SJ app on, but I got my new phone now, so no excuses. Just wanted say I'm alive lol I actually was caught up with Sakamoto, Undead Unlucky, and Spy x Family for a while but I'm not sure how far behind I am. I'm glad you've been enjoying Undead Unluck, though! I really enjoy the emotional content of everything after the loop starts over and we see Fuuko fully grow into herself and fight to give everyone a tragedy-less life. Also awesome to see you get into Kaiju No. 8. It's been a bit of a sleeper hit for me and has been a blast to read. I have yet to start the anime because the animation seemed a bit iffy in comparison to the manga, but I'll have to start that soon.

I was gonna finish the Thunderkyn (the dwarves with the big guns and exosuit).... but my Heartthkyn Yaegir Kill Team came in a day early.... soon my pretties, soon

To Wong Foo: Thanks For Everything - Julie Newmar (1994) I liked this a lot more than I thought I would. It's a bit too idealistic, but it was a wonderful story, to be sure.
