Somehow I missed the Mary Shelley piece last year! I love it. (Off to read the NES piece now)

I'll go read that thing you wrote about Mary Shelley right after I post this comment. I'm watching Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein at a classic cinema in my city tomorrow as this year's Halloween "celebration". I'm really looking forward to it.

I liked the book and I don't remember watching any Frankenstein movies before (not counting Mel Brook's one, which I'm sure I watched when I was a kid).

The trailer looks cool, I just hope the movoe is entertaining and helps me forget the real horrors of the world for the time I'm at the theatre.

Have you played Ball X Pit yet? It's super fun. It's like Vampire Survivors crossed with Arkanoid. And I've been playing a ton of this game that a local Indie Dev here down in Raleigh made called Watchword. It's like Scrabble mixed with Balatro. Chef's kiss.

As of October 18 this year, I'm 45. While I knew that FFVI released in the US on my birthday, somehow I didn't know that I shared a birthday with my old friend, the Nintendo Entertainment System.
