You need to get yourself a powerful gaming computer. With glowing bits and racing strips! My keyboard glows red and the mouse is a pride rainbow, I have no idea why honestly.

I'll leave it at that.

Most I got entangled with Epic is getting Civ 6 for free last month, which was an absolute steal minus Rise & Fall and Gathering Storm but still great, so I guess I’m thankful to be out of their loop most of the time.


I just downloaded Civ 6 last night. Not quite understanding the districts and whatnot yet, but it's already feeling like a step up from Civ 5 (which I've logged way too many hours into).

I built my own gaming PC last year and I've gamed on it probably around 20 times.

But the RGB leds soothe me whenever I realize how much money I wasted.

I have a 2.4Ghz (3.3Ghz overclocked currently) Intel Processor with 8GB RAM potato of a 2020 laptop that can’t even run things like Fallout 3 or World in Conflict (12+ year old games!) at full settings, at least not without some serious chugging so I have to tone some shit down, sadly.

Tbh I prefer Civ V. I like the evolution of cities better (you can see the cities start to sprawl across the map and the bigger they get), as well as the combat, wonders and worker system. I don’t like the districts or how workers only get a certain amount of builds or how cartoonish units look.

Absolutely disgraceful. Incidents such as these are unacceptable, clearly it is time to purge the ranks once more.

Had a productive day: mowed the back lawn, and I got more cola. It is fucking hot, but fortunately, they're predicting a severe thunderstorm, so... yay?

Much more productive than yesterday for sure.
