Having released on the same day, an unusual friendship has developed between the fans of Doom Eternal, and the fans of Animal Crossing New Horizons (though I suspect there is significant crossover between those two demographics, such as myself)

Some of the fanart is adorable

Hit 30 yesterday. Didn't ask for a party, I'm responsibly self-isolating. Just a bit of a bummer hitting a milestone alone. A few friends, reassuring me they're healthy, are giving me a dinner today. The world's feeling miserable but my friends are still awesome.

Small happiness but it checks out.


Nice. Painting miniatures is actually a pretty awesome way to spend one's time. Pretty much the whole reason I got into Warhammer stuff a while back.

Coincidentally, they're pretty much two of the games top of my list to play. I'm even considering getting a Switch just for Animal Crossing.

I just made firework noises in my mouth to also belatedly celebrate your birthday.

And also the baby related to Alan Smithee Nation. Huzzah on both accounts.

How to make a black dynamite

25 ml vodka
50 ml black sambuca
275 ml Smirnoff ice
top off with coke

That's what I'm doing tonight, should make me happy.

Here's a picture of my dog. Her name is Belle:

She's a cross staffy (Staffordshire bull terrior) considering that she's a shelter dog who was found (by the shelter) abandoned in a park, we don't know what she's mixed with, all we know is that she's not pure bred. Our best guess is Labrador, which would make her a Staffador, but we don't know for sure

We call her "Bellie" sometimes, and she loves Belly rubs. I wonder if she thinks belly rubs are named after her. Btw, the foot in that photo is mine

I've spent most of the morning video calling Cubs & Scouts whose birthdays are today. They've been remarkably upbeat, all things considered.

Happy Belated Birthday to you! I know the world has not been too kind as of now, but I still hope that you have a great 30th ahead of you! ^^

And good on your friends, too!

My uncle is likely to be able to return to Zimbabwe once the pandemic is over and start farming again. Hard to think about what happened 20 years ago since I was so young then, and 11 years since my mum and dad left for the states with me and my brothers. I'll like some family back home, means when I move back it'll be less lonely.
