the disappearing gun incident of 2024

Last night, HGR, newbie, and I lost to the PIDF tower boss (we timed out). We were preparing to try again when HGR noticed his epic handgun had disappeared from his inventory. Seconds later, I noticed my refined metal pickaxe had also disappeared. They had both been in handheld slot #2. newbie theor...

outside: a log: resolution 2k24 edition

I’ve been cooped up for most of January due to gloomy days + early dusk + extreme cold snap + ice and snow. I still go outside every day, but it’s become increasingly perfunctory (e.g., taking out trash after dark). So my resolution for February is: more outdoors! more daylight! And I’m going to log...

a crash course in pokeball production

Pros to being the zero-attention-span guy who roams everywhere: FIRST IN SQUAD to max out my catch power via finding lifmunk effigies yeahhhh Cons: It’s 2 am, HGR is out of mats for pokeballs, and everyone else is asleep. He keeps asking stuff like “where do we get more paldium?” “where do we mine o...

oh, you’re my best friend, in a world we must defend

It’s the lunar event and a huge explore update dropped on Friday. So I thought, maybe I’ll roll to check it out; I can snag some lunar marks and IBF that litter I have cooking. But we were playing Palworld all weekend and I didn’t want to clock out every half hour to send out my hunters and spend do...

a requiem for wolvden

I soft quit Wolvden over winter break. It’s a “soft” quit because I haven’t necessarily quit forever; I might return for lunar events…or I might not. Who can say? It comes down to this: After nearly three years of daily rolling, I was tired of Wolvden being the bookend and punctuation to every activ...

hoodie days

It’s been a month since I went to the office. I skipped the holiday party in mid-December. Then we got word that multiple party attendees came down with covid. With the office as a certified Hot Zone, I avoided it for the next couple weeks. I was planning to go in this Wednesday. On Tuesday it snowe...

why does this world persist

Athena did in fact survive 2023, but we got her on our first session in 2024. Not too bad. True fact: I’m so good at this game: (editor’s note: not actually a true fact) (1) During our final Athena 1 reclear, I died during Superchain 2a (which I think killed numbers + Chill who got double-tapped on ...

couch cushion

A small odd thing: Over at brother’s house, I was taking an afternoon nap on the couch, and because there was no blanket to put on top of myself, I used a large couch cushion. “Must be a family thing,” brother's wife said. Apparently, brother does that too. (I didn’t know he did that. He didn’t know...

running commentary

“Can he walk yet??” said roommate. not even close boi  Developmental notes:When on his tummy, he can lift/hold up his head with ease, but he can’t move except by rolling over. His playpen is a bit small for him: he’ll roll over halfway, then get stuck on his arm and/or the side of the pen and r...

a christmas eve concert

BB slept through the night! It probably helped that his afternoon nap was truncated (too much excitement in the house). He slept from 8:30 pm to 6:30 am, woke up for a drink, and then dozed off again until nearly 8. Everyone including me was showering him with praise and little man has no idea what ...
