I wonder how well that works out for these people.

Well, I’m burning out on Animal Crossing in that I need to take a break from it. I expected that.

I am also laughing at the fact that I will soon have another screenshot of someone blocking me to add to my collection, because a state bishop actually blocked me after he started some shit on his Twitter page about how “Catholicism is the one true religion” (don’t these bishops all do this?) and I began talking in a reply thread with a fellow dissenter about how Bub’s father’s family literally made me attend Masses with them against my will — I’ve mentioned this here, though — and I began bringing my PSP with me to these Masses to play hidden on mute in the arm of my sweater, because as stated, I literally did not want to come to any of these church functions. I guess really religious people do not like to have it thrown in their face, even civilly, when aggressive evangelism results in adults being coerced, or forced, into doing things that they state to their then-significant others after the culmination of every one of these events that they do not want to do, or participate in, just to be told “my mother says that I have to pick you up and that you have to come to these”. I wonder how well that worked out for him — oh, wait. It didn’t. Not even remotely like you thought.

I love how these people can dish it but can’t take it… their apologetics game isn’t strong at all.

Do they think that “with enough exposure”, or “with enough immersion”, someone who has never believed in the existence of a supernatural who literally does not want to attend any of these events is suddenly going to go “oh, I see it now! You’ve been right all along” short of saying that out of coercion or fear and not authentically believing it? Well, that is not how this works. That is not how any of this works. I’m telling you.

Waiting for this game’s pre-order to drop like…

This is all we have on this game right now for something that is supposed to drop relatively soon.

Normally it would be available for pre-order on Amazon, or at least have a page dedicated to it… up there, but it doesn’t even have that, and I’d like to pre-order it for Bub at some point sooner rather than later…

Picked up a few birthday games for Bub!

· Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team Dx (Nintendo Switch)
· Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town (Nintendo Switch)

These are pre-orders, but it’s clearly the thought that matters here.

In another post, I’ll be enclosing the actual picture that caused The Transformed Wife (and several theists at that) to actually see red. “You made Bub hold that up!” I had him hold up a certain… documentary that we finally managed to get our hands on in direct response to a Tweet that she had sent out about how you needed to “raise all children to joyously know God” (I’m sure some of you know exactly what he must have been holding up by virtue of exactly which direction this blog post is going in, but I digress), because I got blocked within probably an hour of me commenting back to her with that Tweet. “Earned it,” was my mental response, and yes, it was absolutely worth it to me. Bub also consented to every part of that. Who presumes competence in this house? I do. Who demonstrates competence in this house? Clearly Bub and Monster do!

If you want to be misogynistic and reaching for people’s derision, you need to expect people like me to rise…

Well, at least we get one new game this summer!

I pre-ordered this for Bub as soon as I found out that it was available.

Now we almost seriously have no space left on the microSD, but it was worth it, it really was.

We have the majority of, if not all of, the Paper Mario games. Bub is down for the Paper Mario life as well as the Super Mario life by the looks of things, and these games have never been half bad. So it was worth it…

I’m also glad that it will release in July (assuming that all goes as it should), which isn’t that long from now!

There’s always this… lull when it comes to games.

I’m beginning to lose some of the zest that I had for Animal Crossing when it first came out, but I do check the game before I go to bed each night provided that I did not check it at some point during the day. This is one of the reasons that I do not want to “commit” to MMORPGs that you have to pay a monthly subscription to play, because at some point in time I know that I am going to lose interest in it, and I would just rather not take the risk of paying every month to play something that my brain is eventually, sooner rather than later, going to go, “Hey! You need to take a break from this!”. Because I know me, and it’s something that happens every time with every game. I need to be able to walk away from it at some point. Brain does what brain wants when it comes to games, especially MMOs. There is no sweet-talking brain into “committing to the cause”. I have not found an MMO yet that I have committed to long-term without there being some break.

I suppose this may have come about, or been cemented in my head, from playing games with the wrong kind of people over the years. Now don’t get me wrong, I do love games. I love playing them around migraines, with the right medication, when I can. But I have managed to play them with the wrong people over the years, so this may have become a bit of a protective mechanism that my brain can not shake, even if I am now playing them with the right people. So if you are one of those “wrong” people, thanks, seriously.
