Just watched another Studio Ghibli movie in an increasingly desperate quest to figure out why people rate them so highly.
Still inconclusive. I'll have to try again later.

Streams: Robotic Seductions, Chitinous Horrors, Surreal Australians.
Videos: Trenchcoat and fedora, but not in a Reddit way.
We join Edric the lunk-headed war criminal as he wildly slashes his way through caves full of monsters to rescue his bikini-clad friend. Heβs also dripping with chicken grease.

You have cracked my impenetrable code π
My biggest cosy game is probably Half Life! I didn't even consider if it was connected at all, but I found myself playing it for the hundredth time today after receiving bad news recently.
If something's actually marketed specifically as a "cosy game" I look at it as if it's a pod person.
A game over screen for some sort of Donkey Kong game. Below are comments saying: "Rare treated kids like adults no sugar coating gotta respect that" "They literally have cartoonish band aids and black eyes this isn't adult content" "They still look like they gotten really beaten up. You won't see this on. Mario"
This is how people in their 30s talk about Cartoon Network shows.
Why bother making a God of War adaptation? The game is already indistinguishable from a middling streaming series.
The other two annoy me. The orange dog has the same witless joy in their eyes as a labrador.
I have no opinion on PokΓ©mon except that people are being mean to the blue lizard and I think they look nice π
I love The Collection Chamber! It's a website that collects old abandonware games and patches them up to run as well as possible on modern systems with custom installers. Pure nerd enthusiasm.
Actually, one of the only times a game from there *hasn't* worked well for me is NOLF. It's a cursed game.
Frodo the guinea pig looking like an overgrown mop.
Frodo the guinea pig looking bewildered after a haircut. A pile of fluff sits in the foreground.
From mop to a neat pig π
"Leftist", "Genocide Denier."
Hmm, I don't know if those things add up the way they think it does.
Cartoon terrorists have planted bombs in the water treatment plant! Itβs Max and Nina of UNSKβs job to sloppily shoot and climb their way around to stop them.
In a βfunβ change of pace, this game is entirely in a language I donβt speak.

We rejoin Jake Hard and help him uncover the sordid plans of criminal mastermind and generally unrighteous dude Angel Devoid.
Will Jake retain his morals? Will Neo-City be saved? Will anyone actually care?

Bloody Pit of Horror 1965 β β Liked Watched 12 Feb 2026 Dreyameirβs review published on Letterboxd: There's a henchman in this film with such enormous testicles in such tight trousers that it was impossible to focus on anything else. Aside from Mickey Hargitay cavorting around like a possessed goblin. The last third of the movie is pretty much just odd pornography. So if you want to watch women awkwardly writhe around moaning while getting their boobs poked, this is one for you! You pervert.
Quiz Show 1994 β β Watched 12 Feb 2026 Dreyameirβs review published on Letterboxd: Hollywood in the 90s was full of movies like Quiz Show. The grime, nuance and introspection of New Hollywood was dead and gone, and every drama became a soft-focus cruise with easy answers. Flags drifting in the breeze and lofty phrases about "the American people". Gumpification. There's probably a world where a story about a game show scandal to boost advertising revenue could be interesting, but this isn't it. The characters are all deeply unlikable in broad, uninteresting ways. The acting and direction are servicable, but in the same way a forgettable TV miniseries might be. The script often had me rolling my eyes at its own self-importance. Everything about the film, from the relationships and motivations, to the investigation and sanding down of real events, is shallow and unsatisfying. The movie just has nothing to say for itself beyond a vague "isn't it crazy how much we lie, man? Where did our innocence go?" Like a liberal smoking their first joint.
The two flavours of my Letterboxd reviews.
There's a world of difference between a two-star and a two-star with a heart.
Just spelled "necessarily" correctly on the first try for the first time in my life.
It's all going to go alright for me. This is the turning point. I can feel it.
Meet Arrikk, a blank-faced rube with a unibrow. Heβs the chosen one, and that means he needs to run various confusing errands around a muddy village while children spit at him.

A person mostly naked but wearing some sort of VR headset combined with wires and possible cling film around the key areas.
This is what I look like when I record. I can't make the magic happen without it.
Just get Ventrillo, just set up Teamspeak, just install Revolt, add me on Stoat, see you all on Guilded, we're migrating to Glunt, I set up a Thunderfard server, have you seen Upskirm, I'm on Poob, I'm in a voice call on Poob, talk to me right now on Poob, take out your phone and install Poob.

Some sort of little lizard friend sitting in a container with a sticker on it that says "Gender: ?"
A representation of my soul.
Shadow of Mordor is one of the few games I've 100%ed (I was in a bad place, don't judge me) and I'd still call it a 5/10.
I'm willing to say what everyone's too afraid to admit: The Nemesis system is a pointless novelty that adds nothing, and it'll never get better because of the copyright.
We join officer Jake Hard (yes, really) after unwanted surgery sees his face get swapped with a notorious criminal and Jakeβs arch enemy.
Now heβs on the run from gangs and police alike in the cyberpunk dystopia of Neo-City.

One final trip to Illsmouth.
John Parker has caused so much death and destruction in this tiny village. Can he at least put a stop to the eldritch machinations of Cthulhu and the other assorted nightmare gods?

Frodo should not consume bread, but it looks very cute.
"Quote this post with a game that you like but everyone else hates."
When I played through Bad Milk on stream, my chat told me they were going to come to my house and kill me.
We return to Illsmouth and John Parker. A fishy plot is afoot in a sleepy New England town.
A cursed comet. Madness. Underground caverns full of goo. Itβs all here. All horrible. All Cthulhu.
