Today I learned from experienced gamers. If you want it on release day, pre-order physical media from a store that will be open at midnight. Otherwise buy digital. So I cancelled one order and made a second. Downloading now, much to my surprise. Large online retailer had not yet shipped.

It's Probably Not Premium, Probably Not Really Hand-Crafted
Pruning my email inbox, I’m made aware again and again of how overuse of buzzwords and phrases really bothers me. It’s my special personal problem, I know. But the word “premium” and the phrase “hand crafted” really bother me. I hardly had to go more than a few messages before encountering them both. Premium is such a truly rare thing, and the things described as premium are not rare nor unusual.
I don’t know what my deal is, but, in the aftermath of “Trick or Treat,” I’m really enjoying the sour candies this year.
Alex: Wherever you are, I owe you an apology. I’m 55 with a customized OLED Nintendo Switch. I’m sorry I laughed. At that point in my life I didn’t get it, and I was a judgemental asshole. I’m super excited for the Switch release of Hogwarts Legacy. I’m still low key an asshole.
Feeling sorry for myself, today.
I can’t manage sugar and carbs. I need to make dramatic changes because the meds only do so much. What I have been doing has not been enough.
A very Happy Halloween to all those who celebrate with Tricks and Treats.

I just can’t even. I don’t know a way forward right now. Half an hour just to get to recovery mode, and this result on a clean volume. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
