I see a game with cats, I buy, I'm a simple mind.
In this case it's about Little strays 2 (and by the looks of it I guess I'll be effin crying a lot 😅 )
Anyone played this game for a first-hand review?

Unless you mean you’re not meant to eat or drink anything except water?
Exactly

The worst part about a blood test isn't the needle but having to be un-caffeinated and being expected to properly work and give answers when asked.
Like "What's your name sir?"

Ever since I dropped Clair Obscur for good I've been feeling better. I dunno why that game made me feel so guilty about abandoning it but there's a good chance it was just FOMO + curiosity.
Went through the same stuff with BG3.

Yep, the same set

@nprofile…hqk5 yes, the Swing models
I was a bit on the edge about the Click so we decided to wait before buying those too

It’s their way of keeping us busy and quiet.
I had this impression but now you confirmed it 😂

My wife got me every ADDI crochet hook for my birthday (early present) :adragonlove:
and then she asked me a lot of stuff (amigurumi, afghans, etc.) 😂
That's how you do a boomerang gift!
I'm happy to comply, but first I need to buy a uuh... kilometer or two of yarns.

@nprofile…hqk5 huh interesting!
I haven’t done regular tapestry but mosaic is just the usual stitches (blsc, fldc) but with a second yarn carried behind them.
I've never done mosaic :) on my TO-CROCHET list it goes!

@nprofile…hqk5
Yup, nothing much tho, a few baskets and some test canvases
The only negative aspect I found is that having a big hand (and consequently big fingers) doing tapestry on a fine hook resulted in a lot of cramping and pinching both the strands at the same time. I blame the inexperience too

Good luck with that! The results are amazing but the process is a pain in the arse 😅
Tapestry crocheting will make your final result a bit stiffer too

Today is going to be the third day of a five day weekend for me
I'll be hitting the gym, cleaning the house and then it's going to be videogames until the evening 😁
Hooray

@nprofile…hqk5 those are Greeks nonetheless. Other "famous" buttocks are the those of Neptune, in Bologna, known to be the best butts in Italy

Another week full of butt clenching and (hopefully) un-clenching.
If everything goes right I will obtain the buttocks of a Greek statue 😅

I started watching Murderbot, the TV adaptation of Martha Wells' "The murderbot diaries". Well, the first season is all focused on the first novel, "All systems red" and I was extra skeptical, especially since the huge disappointment in the Silo TV show, but I must say that this show clicks all the right buttons
I've already seen the main actor in another role that I quite enjoyed but for the life of me I can't remember where and when.
Anyhoo, if you liked the books or if you're looking for a mid-light hearted show, this one is highly suggested

I'm seeing a lot of Subnautica 2 stuff around now that the release date is approaching BUT I never played the first one, because it didn't click with me.
It was a mix of claustrophobia and thalassophobia, although not on an extreme level, but...eh.
FOMO or claustrophobia/thalassophobia. Mh. This is a hard one.

No Alex, you won't buy PRAGMATA until you will have finished at least two games in your backlog.

We're fastly approaching the end of the first test run for Discord alternatives (because, you know, eff ID verification and everything that really represents) at the Tavern and we wanted to give back some of the feedbacks from the community itself.

I don't know how and why, but my home timeline took a severe hit in posts relatives to gaming and generally speaking videogames.
I went looking for someone interesting in the #gaming and #videogames (and #SteamDeck and #PS5) hashtags but 90% of the posts seems coming from automated profiles, which isn't really good.
SO! If you have any human profile suggestions for the topics above, ping them here, let's start a Gaming Follow Friday thread, that could work too for Federating other servers :)
Boosts appreciated, thanks!
Oh and feel free to suggest an alternative to the hashtag GamingFollowFriday, I suck at these things.
