Starting to feel dangerously confident about my scrandletective skills.

Went to Dinoworld, found the gift shop.

It was going so well right until the final stretch.

Well today was a disaster.

This post comes sponsored by my internal head radio, which treats the first hub music for Kyrandia 3 as a generic idle music anytime I'm just going about my day and no other song is playing in my head. The way it builds and grows makes it go way harder than random piece of click n point adventure ...

The only podcast I've ended up getting really into is What Is Music : A Music Podcast About Music. Basically it's a set of three hosts going through artist discographies album by album, analysing the context behind each record and discussing each album track-by-track. The "gimmick" is that they ...

Oh this is fun and potentially very addictive.

Love how nearly all of us got the second one wrong.

Kind of tragicomically, classic WoW and particularly the Burning Crusade/Wrath of the Lich King era. It's the part of the game's history where I (and many others) think the game peaked: in mechanics, in quests, in overall gameplay experience. Cataclysm somewhat wrecked everything (though I liked the ...

Timely! I typed our recipe for a lentil "temple" dahl and a courgette & bay curry side in my blog just this week, so handy coincidence that I can post it here too - and when I say "our recipe", I mean "the recipes my partner and I nicked from the cookbook of a national Indian restaurant chain", but ...

Been taking a minor break from Yakuza: Like a Dragon just to replay Hexen, courtesy of the new remaster that popped up in my library. Hexen is one of my formative FPS memories that made me fall in love with the genre as a li'l gamer, even if it was almost incomprehensible for my younger self because ...

I'm very surprised at myself for not mentioning this earlier, but my current frontrunner for AOTY is actually spoken word heavy! Antony Szmierek's Service Station at the End of the Universe is an excellent record which came out at the start of the year: Szmierek's a poet from Manchester and his ...

Ahh Prehistorik! Sometimes I wonder if I fever dreamed this into existence because it's just so unspoken about, but I remember this so clearly from my childhood - one of the few games we had on floppy discs but with the actual big box (most of my ...

Went to finally see Bad Guys 2 today (and in a way I'm kind of shocked there isn't a separate topic for it in such a fur-oriented space). I love the first film as a film first and foremost: it is such a fantastically designed and executed joyride from start to finish that I can't remember when the ...

The beginning of Fallout 2 is an infamous one in the PC RPG world. After the sudden success of the original Fallout, the dev studio Black Isle was told to push out a sequel ASAP and whilst they were generally left to their own devices, the publisher Interplay forced the devs to add an enforced ...

In terms of underrated, not very well known LEGITIMATE BANGERS in the video game soundtrack sphere, the first mission music from the mid-90s PC shooter Crusader: No Remorse is just straight up fire.

Furry? Queer? Literature? Right gang, I'm going to ramble about Imperium Lupi .

Imperium Lupi is a series of books by Adam Browne: the first book came out in 2017, and the second book came out earlier this year. A friend of mine was such a huge fan of the first book that he gifted me a copy on my ...

Re-read LotR for the first time in a lifetime earlier this year. The Peter Jackson movies were a big thing for me and my sisters growing up (we'd go to the cinema to watch them together, then spend the following Christmas and Boxing Day going through the DVD box set extras), and one of them gave me ...

Trivia pop quiz. Hope you've read all the codex entries *props up glasses*.

Perhaps a bit more "musical" than what's requested, but the below two songs have launched themselves among my favourite songs of all time and given me a bit of a mini-obsession with spoken word type narratives as well.

The first one is Craig Finn's "God in Chicago". Finn has always been a ...

I'm not really a metal- or hard rock head beyond a few very specific exceptions, but you can't help but have respect for Ozzy. A true iconic fireball of charisma, solo or with Sabbath.

This post is just a veiled excuse to share the below song, which many of Ozzy's fans would probably normally ...

I did a dinky little one for my site: https://grumpfox.neocities.org/images/esbutton.jpg . It's not very good because my visual design skills are terrible but it does the job.

I can't find the site now where I picked these up from (it also had loads of other buttons of similar theme) but gotta wear ...

Any excuse to drop the S K O R B
