Made vegan cheesesteaks for dinner. They are very yummy.
I’m enjoying more alternatives to meat in my recipes simply because meat is getting more and more expensive. But honestly I don’t mind, these were delicious and healthier than a meat based meal.

Just started playing Doki Doki Literature Club (yes I'm late to the party). I knew I was getting into a psychological horror game, but I didn't think the game would get under my skin this much.

I just finished Act 1 and the weird, discordant stuff is just starting to happen. I have never been this unsettled by a game before (and I love the Silent Hill franchise).

I want to finish the game to see where it goes, but it's going to be a tense, disturbing journey.

I find it funny that I have played all of the Yakuza / Like a Dragon games (and the 2 Judgement spin offs), but have not finished a single one, I have no desire to go back and start them over to try and finish them. But I am super excited for the new Like a Dragon games coming out. I know I will buy (and probably never finish) them.

I really like that Square Enix has been releasing demos for a lot of their games recently. Everything from Stranger of Paradise to Theatrhythm Final Bar Line to Octopath Traveler 2. I wish more companies would release demos of their games. With so many games coming out and getting more expensive it's hard to judge a game based on YouTube videos alone. More demos please!

Persona 4 Golden came out on Xbox today. Persona 5 is one of my favorite games of all time, but for some reason I have never had the motivation to play more than 2 hours of Persona 4.

Yes I own it on the Vita, yes I own it on Steam. But this time I swear I will play and finish Persona 4 Golden! (Right after I finish Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope 😂 )

@Timmah1979 I saw that right beside some Beast Wars toys at Walmart and wondered if I some how time travelled back to 1996 😂😂

Marvel should adapt the Midnight Suns game into the next phase of the MCU. I would love to see that plot brought to the movies.

@TXPamInOH yes it is just over 3 hours long. It never felt like it dragged on though. I never once felt bored watching it.

Babylon is a very good movie. It’s like if Singin In the Rain and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood got together and had a wild drug fueled party. It’s an insane movie and I mean that in the best way possible. It’s both a love letter to old Hollywood and a comedy about the gratuitous, decadent excess of Hollywood.

@acedtect good article Tom. A lot of other articles I’ve read about this are just fear mongering and saying things like delete LastPass, it’s no longer secure.

Yeah it’s a bad attack and is worrisome, but use of proper passwords and mfa will help mitigate damage.

Happy Holidays wonderful people of CoSo!

Some interesting games revealed at #TheGameAwards
I’m most excited for Hades 2, Death Stranding 2, and Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League.

The winners weren’t too surprising. I think Cult of the Lamb should have won best indie, but Stray is amazing and very deserving of the award.

Interesting stats from what I listened to in YouTube music this year. I love fun stats like this.

An added benefit to black Friday is that I clean up my email accounts by unsubscribing to all the news letters I get sent this week

@CaptainSeli Larry is awesome. He’s probably one of my favourite gym leaders.

The music in #Pokemon Scarlet/Violet is pretty great. The stuff in Area Zero reminds me of music from Nier Automata

@TVsTravis It's definitely an "Oscar Season" type of movie. I love this time of year because all the Oscar type movies come out, and I get to see some great movies that I probably would have skipped over if not for the awards buzz they get.

Tár is an interesting movie. Immediately after seeing it, I wasn't sure if I liked it. My initial thoughts were is was overlong and a very slow burn.

But after letting it simmer in my mind for a few days I really like it. Yes, it is slow and methodical. But it is necessary in order to set up Tár's character, and her actions. It's a movie that trusts the viewer's intelligence and leaves you with thoughtful questions in your mind to ruminate over.

@tracytran I did! That's what prompted me to write that CoSO is a nice place. A lot of people here are excited to be playing the new Pokémon game, yes people are pointing out some of the legit issues with the game, which is fair. But nothing even close to the level of toxicity and entitlement that is on some other social media places.
