Jeez, I should've invested into popcorn stocks. There's a lot of action at the other side of the pond that could've come straight out of a B-movie.

Since I'm pretty unhappy about the 'fun' to be had in late-game LotRO, time for a new MMO to play! Or rather, time to revisit one we used to play the heck out of back then, but due to non-game related reasons we stopped playing and forgot about it.

I guess I'll be playing this little fella that's waiting for me in my character list. This is simply the coolest race of this game!

Guess? ;)

Definitely the advantage of curly hair is that nobody'll easily see that you've cut your own hair!

At least I didn't cut in my ear this time... :P

Questing around level 80 in The Lord of the Rings Online is so unfun that we're just contemplating playing a different MMO instead.

Questlines are boring and buggy, area is tiring, and I seriously don't care about the Rohirrim and Ents anymore. At this point I just want to throw my hands up in the air and defect over to Saruman already.

And there are so many solo instances that I'm wondering whether the devs still know that this is supposed to be a MMO, not a singleplayer game.

Meh. :P

A buddy gifted Mindustry to me, so I'm likely going to play a few multiplayer sessions with my friends in the coming week(s).

It's sorta a Factorio lite. Less micromanaging, but more enemy invasions. It's actually a freeform tower defense game.

Considering I'm the slow backbone builder, it's a good idea to send my buddies to the front where they can build the turrets and defenses while I make sure the production lines are there. :P

Woot woot. Sis finally brought back the mini stepper fitness device, she didn't use that at all. And now that my desk is put at the highest position (it's an electric sitting/standing desk, fancy I know!) I can perfectly exercise my legs and play games at the same time! (gotta feed the addiction while still staying healthy!)

Went for a little new year's walk today in the park. I can say it's pretty cold out there. (Yes, @mur2501 . It's close to actual freezing out there, nowhere near a nice balmy 16C. 😋)

On the way we passed this tree trunk with all those mushrooms growing around it. It's like a little mushroom ring for fairies. It looked spiffy enough for me to take a picture of.

Lots of bare trees and dead leaves. And muddy ground from all the rain in the past weeks.
'Twas a good walk.

Power returned around 3:30-ish. Woo! Heat! Light! Computers! Internet that is not on a damn small phone screen! No more smelling paraffine!

Ok, a brighter 2021 everyone!

I'll start the day off healthy with a new year's walk with my mother soon!

Happy new year everybody. May your day not be as dark as here right now! :P (typing this by candle light)

Wheeee! Full blown power failure in my house row a half hour before 2021 arrives! So wonderful! :P

Ah, nothing better than ending 2020 with electricity trouble in the house.

Sure, why not. 😒

And of course tomorrow nothing will be open. So I'll have to contact the power company on saturday at the earliest. And that is a weekend. Yayyyyyyyyy... /s

Lessee how annoying my cat is going be. He's not allowed outside today and tomorrow.

I never take risks during new year's eve, there are a bit too many morons around with illegal fireworks.

For @mur2501 (who seems to be obsessed with cats)

I don't quite get it. The Legend of Korra's episode names are all in Dutch (@Netflix Netherlands). It looks exceedingly stupid (eg. 'airbender' -> 'luchtbestuurder').

But the subtitles only has the option of 'Engels [CC]' (my favorite!) or 'Uit' (not my favorite!). So there's not even Dutch subs available. (Not that I mind, since translations of names are always cringe-worthy.)

Okay, they do have Dutch audio available. Still...
Are Dutch kids really hearing stuff like 'luchtbestuurders'?! :P
