Steam just works better. Their cloud save is reliable, and library organizing is actually a thing. I can see someone using the free Epic game as a sort of demo. Plus, if they really liked they game they may want to support the developer

I fell under ‘wee English fella’. I was the de facto stage manager at my high school and all the crew called me grandpa or gramps ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There was also that time I wore a turtleneck/blazer combo so even the cast was calling me Captain haha

A very similar thing happened to me a few months back! I rewatch HIGNFY compilations to help me sleep and one was the series that had Jacob Rees-Mogg guest for an episode. My entire dream revolved around him 🤢

I’ve really enjoyed some single player games; but I’ve given up on multiplayer VR. There’s just sooo many children.

There are a couple of ways to pronounce the letter ‘H’ that could sound like ‘age’; one that keeps a soft ‘hah’ sound before ‘aitch’ and one that drops the soft ‘hah’. Both can end up sounding similar to a cross between eight/age depending on how clearly you enunciate.

Edit; Age also has a sharper ‘tch’ sound when spoken in those accents. There are probably accents that use a softer ‘g’ sound

I grew up in an area that never got snow days. Closest we got was ash snow, but that didn’t cancel school ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The trick is to like burned bread. God I love the taste of charcoal.

I’ll shill up for skill up’s website that spun up from his ‘This Week in Gaming’. He has some great coverage on indie games and always dedicates a segment to ‘put this on your radar’.

Paul Tassi from Forbes also has some really good takes and sources in the industry for those AAA games.

This timeline sucks for so many reasons, and this is one of them.

We’ve had an electric kettle for a while, and when it’s done it just clicks off. It’s the perfect amount of noise that I now have a Pavlovian response to haha

I mean yeah, that’s why I chose it. I had renamed the artist over multiple musicals to Terry so I could ‘play by artist’ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah, at least for this album. I remember changing it from Terrence to Terry. I did it for Les Mis as well, but they obviously would have had a lot more to pull from. I might have had the most ‘complete’ meta data on their server for Scarlet Pimpernel?

That’s been my assumption at least.

 

So long story short; I’m a huge fan of Terrence Mann (mainly for his work in musicals, but he’s done TV/Film as well).

If you use YouTube music and look up the musical ‘The Scarlet Pimpernel’ you’ll find some songs credited to ‘Terry Mann’. That’s my fault.

It never was a very popular musical, and I had uploaded it to my library back in the Google Play days. I may have given Terrence Mann a cute lil nickname for my eyes only roughly a decade ago, and now it’s the official meta data. I hope this doesn’t get corrected because I honestly think about it a lot and I couldn’t ask for a better legacy.
