Have you taken a day off work if you’re able to? If you haven’t done it in a while, you should! Get some rest gamer. You know what else will help you relax? This week’s sunday paper, provided your resident minty fresh writer. Which is just a bunch of words to say: on to the stuff! ## Interesting Stuff ### I Hate the Word Content I was going to write a post about this, but [this blog post](https://www.thescifinovel.com/i-hate-the-word-content/) is literally everything I was going to write, to the point that if I went through it I’d probably be accused of plagiarism. So go read that instead! ### CRKD Rhythm Guitars I promise this isn’t a sponsorship — was just taking a trip down memory lane and remembered how my family was always unable to afford **Guitar Hero**. So it might be time to [make good on some envy removal](https://crkd.gg/collections/shop-all-rhythm). ### DDR Home Pads Just reread the last paragraph and then [click the link](https://ddrpad.com/collections/home-pads). Something something nostalgia arc real, alright?? ### Obsidian Bases They’re available to everyone now, not just catalyst users! Yippie! [Check out the documentation](https://help.obsidian.md/bases). Again, not a sponsored post, this time it’s just because I’m a zealot! ## Planted Recently [[The Push and Pull of Gacha Games]] Wrote about how fascinating gacha players are to me. Do not open if you love gachas btw, lmfao. [[Loving Things Means Letting Go]] Reset the clock! Mint’s thinking about the finality of life and the endless march of time too much again! ## Media Corner ### Games Playing: - [[Dynasty Warriors Origins]] - **The Division 2** - I dunno either man. Number go up. - **Caves of Qud** - I’m probably gonna get real weird about this game! ### TV/Film - **Spice World** - Absolute classic, 7/7 movie, would watch again. ### Music - **The Rogue Prince of Persia Complete Soundtrack** - Asadi - PLEASE PLEASE LISTEN TO THIS OST PLEEEEEASE - **doku** - yama - Shout out to [BurgerBuan](https://bsky.app/profile/burgerbuan.bsky.social) for putting me on this one! - **Ikillikill** - cyber milkchan - **Dynasty Warriors: Origins Original Soundtrack** - Koei Tecmo ## Status Update Not including the newsletters, I’ve written 157 posts in [taniyn.quest](https://taniyn.quest) this year! I’m quite happy with that pace. Assuming I stopped today, that’s a post for almost every other day of the year. That’s a lot of writing! Also: I am taking some time off, LOL. Could you tell from that intro? I again encourage you to do so yourself, if you can. We’re ⅔ of the way through the year. Catch your breath! ## Signing Off Hope you’re having a relaxing Sunday!
