Are you sure those are squirrels? 1 foot and 5 pounds is the size of a small cat.


They're real big, but squirrels, and usually fat off the neighbor's birdfeeder. Also, I took this picture because I literally cannot believe two of them crammed themselves in there at the same time.

really it would be more standard if instead of traps and chemicals and whatnot he just bought himself a high powered shotgun and started blasting holes in his attic like elmer fudd
Actually thought about getting an air rifle to pick them off with as they scale the trees to get to the house, yes

Guys, the fact that they are making a sequel to Life is Strange is only really sinking in with me today.

Games loving rule. Announce Deadly Premonition 2 and/or Alan Wake 2 and i'd just be happy for the rest of my days.

One time we were trying to get rid of chipmunks using these traps and a opossum crammed itself in there somehow

it fell to me to extract it and it mercifully did its "I'm Dead" act instead of trying to bite my fingers off or whatever

That's the worst part. I love rodents, but they managed to chew through a wooden storage crate and destroyed my mom's wedding dress and made her cry, among other things, so they shall all be purged

Pretty good. I saw the new Alien movie last night, and it was thoroughly "ok." Played a bunch of Titanfall 2 and now anticipating a big multiplayer game of Stellaris that a goon friend is planning for Memorial Day weekend.

How are you?

Dreadful. Had a horrible night terror yesterday and had another last night that still has me shaken up, gotta go to a wedding tomorrow that I know I'm gonna have some kind of anxiety attack during and end up feeling really lovely during, and then my birthday is coming up on the 27th and with me turning 26 and my fiancee's gonna try to get me stuff for it and I know some other people want to get me things but I just feel bad because I don't like when people fuss over me or buy me things because I don't feel like I'm worth the money or effort and I feel like they're wasting it by dropping it on me. I'm also worried about my birthday because I'm afraid of my mother trying to contact me for it.


Other than that, nothing else is happening. I'm tired, exhausted, really just wanna get back to sleep, but I wanna check in with everyone else and see how everyone else is doing because I like asking how everyone's doing and seeing what people are up to because I'm nosy like that.

Yeah, parents used to have this fat squat little cat with no front claws and it basically acted like a dog in terms of how much attention it wanted but turning it loose in the basement whenever someone saw a mouse down there revealed it was a bloodthirsty and efficient little furry murderer.

Walk down there 10 minutes after we put the cat down there and the cat is just casually laying around in front of the mouse which it has torn in half


Dunno how it would have done with Invictus's giant mutant attic squirrels, though...

There's videos of what happens when you put a june bug in a hamster cage(hamsters eat beetles in the wild sometimes and june bugs are a healthy snack for a pet hamster).

Turns out hamsters can instantly switch into prowling predator mode too. It's great.

I imagine that Square would probably not want Life is Strange to be episodic if they poo poo canned IO for Hitman's failure

Life is Strange had strong player retention between entries. It was also a lot less expensive to make (under €6 million).

I mean, they still make some games (PES and Bomberman) and Revengeance was a Platinum game anyway with less (no?) involvement from Kojima so they could technically do it.

They won't.

As far as I know the only thing Kojima did on Revengeance was make grown men cry on camera so he could jerk off to it later.

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
Jumping into Ashes of Ariandel after not having played DS3 since release is a jarring and uphill fight. Everything feeling slow mixed with the Viking aesthetic reminds me of Lords of the Fallen.
