we'll hold the line

Have survived most of 2021.
Got my booster shot for Covid (yay)
Went down and visited family for the holidays (also yay).

Watched Queens of Mystery with my mother, and it was cute (and I want to bang Julie Graham, no lie).

Also have now re-watched all of season one of Leverage Redemption, and I still love it. (reading the comments on imdb/amazon, though, is hilarious. People, if you didn't see the clear Woke Bias in Leverage original flavor, you were fucking blind. And it's a bit disturbing how many people think Breanna calling out Nazis is racist...)

It's like when people go on about how in Their Day, Doctor Who wasn't Political at all. (uh-huh)

I have listened to a bunch of Torchwood audio, played some games, listened to some other audios... I'll post separately for those.

My life isn't particularly interesting.

sff: Games Edition - Mystery Case Files mainly.

I'll get the non MCF game out the way first:

Amaranthine Voyage: The Tree of Life. I love the design in this one--it's steampunk. However, they repurposed a spacey game for it, so the base is a crashed spaceship buried in the jungle, with a castle built on top of it! It's a ridiculous mash of periods, and I LOVE it. The game does suffer from bad acting from Real People (photo-realistic), and the one dude tends to just stand around with his bare feet looking confused. You can click to speed up the dialog without losing anything. The mythology backstory is mostly entertaining. Mostly, though, I drool at the buried spaceship.
