“This isn’t a boss fight, it’s an escort quest!” Yeah, I feel ya, Hero; we’ve all been there. It sucks.

Mid-fight, Our Crushing Crusher finishes changing into her mismatched spare gear just in time to protect the squishy NPC, and they manage to trigger the next stage of the questline. Which splits them up and drops them into an exposition-heavy underwater city. Next week, will the PoV switch to other players, or will we stick with Our Half-Naked Birdman for a while?

Verdict: not sure why they didn’t call the sirens sirens, but whatever. Hopefully things pick up as the party reunites. But they can’t finish the entire sub-sea arc this season, so will they switch over to the other-game tournament soon?

(definitely not Rei’s spare armor…)

A Wild Cybertruck Appears!

I’ve seen a few at a distance, but I finally got to see one close up. Unfortunately it was in front of me in the drive-through at Rally’s, in the middle of the night, so all I can really say is that it must have been a bitch to get a decent paint job on all those sharp corners, something that will stand up to heavily-salted winter roads.

Which reminds me that when I moved to Silicon Valley, I was amazed how good ten-year-old cars looked compared to Ohio…

(Truck-kun meets his nemesis)

Speaking of which, 3-4 inches of snow

…which isn’t going to clear itself off my driveway in the next week.
