I've seen this somewhere before... Maybe Rick & Morty, not sure, something very fleshy, compound eyes, and squiggly tentacles where the mouth would be... Or maybe Samurai Jack?

That actually sounds pretty satisfying, ngl! Somewhere around creamy brownie/slightly frozen mousse!
Never had the chance to try :-<
Depending on texture, that may be either surprisingly yummy, or disturbingly disgusting.
That's not a CPU, that's a fucking space heater.
Fairphones are a solid bit of tech! I mean this both metaphorically and literally! The 4 I own feels like a Nokia built in their heyday.
Honestly, I don't think the action's the problem, I enjoyed creating interlinked databases with tens of thousands of entries in Spreadsheets. I think it's strictly to do with the complexity itself, I need more. I like the concept of every piece having a specific move set, I'd just need more of them. And add more complexity to them, but at that point may as well just play grand scale combat games, like 40k.
Edit: plus, to be honest, this lack of complexity doesn't even let me properly enjoy a victory. Maybe it has some fetishistic tinges at this point, but a protracted victory is so much sweeter, make me feel like I pulled my brain through high intensity training for a couple of hours. Either that, or something which can start acting as a reflex, like backgammon.
Disclaimer: not calling myself smart or anything.
I always found chess boring, for some reason. Like, not because it is too complex, but because it isn't complex enough, in a way. As an example, the first time I tried my hand at Medieval II: Total War, I fell in love with all things strategy.
I still can't do chess, though... It's like my mind goes to its happy place halfway through a match and I start making moves just to progress the game and be done with it. Gimme a 4X game, and I'd need reminders to pee every 12 hours.
...why?
You may be right. I was basing my initial hunch on the fact that he seems to be almost impressively vulnerable for a bona fide narcissist, "The Orange Man" would still highlight him as significant.
My past relationships make sense now, the Universe was Mr. Miyagi-ing me into a machine for punching Nazis!
Thank you! She really was, yeah.
visions of Raya Lucaria shenanigans... Also, Iron Keep. Those armored bastards can choke on my socks.
Edit: Fuck It, Vent Time™
So, I started my first NG+ in ER, right? Started with lvl 256, first thing I did was get my second Bloodhound's Fang (and upgraded to +9 off the bat), my guy's beefed to 80 Dex, 40 Str, 50 Vig, 50 End, 45 Arcane (or thereabouts), the rest dumped in Mind and focusing on Int this run.
I one/two shot anything which isn't a miniboss, I slam into bosses like a freight train. If I'm bored, like with the crystal bastards, I drop a Mimic Tear and solve every problem in a 200 meter radius.
I reach Raya Lucaria. Died 10 times on the wheel thing. Ok, whatever. I'm rusty, stopped at Malenia a couple of years ago. Progress to the rooftops. Die 20 times.
And not just in Raya Lucaria, I'm frequently missing 25% of my HP because I just jump off buildings. I swear, it's like I die to falling off the map more than I did in my original run. By my rough estimates, lost (died, then died again trying to get them back, usually...) about 500k Runes to fall deaths thus far. The damage-to-fall distance ratio is the final boss for me, and overconfidence is still a fiend.
