Fill the void with light…

Sea-Bands, for all your video game induced motion sickness...

January. 2025. Right then. Sixteen days of vacation (minus those two pesky days of social obligations) sounds like a lot, but when you factor in weekends and holidays, it was only actually seven days that Bob had to use PTO for. Two weeks of staying holed-up in the house, avoiding people, staying up too late, eating meals at weird times, playing video games, and generally enjoying just existing with each other.

Conversation in Cyberpunk 2077

Bob started a new Cyberpunk 2077 play through. They just released a major update that reworked practically everything about it, so it’s kind of like playing a brand new game.

This does not surprise anyone. I didn’t even bother to edit the parts that claim it’s still January. — We’re going to talk about Final Fantasy XIV again. Because reasons. When I… Keep reading…Picking up steam…
