  I am guessing Mandalorian and Grogu has not opened internationally yet... because no copies seem to be floating around

  Good Morning, Folks! This holiday morning, I continue my #MixtapeMondays series, this time focused on #Eurovision and the songs that live rent-free in my head. Many of these I thought should have won their respective years, but did not get the love they deserved. https://aggronaut.com/2026/05/25/mixtape-mondays-spectacle-politique/ #mixtape #amlistening #music

  I have an employee named Jeffrey... and this song lives in my head while I am talking to him... especially the Jeffrey with One F portion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xf5mRBPzTQ4

  huzzah the cold effect has faded just enough that I can eat apples with yogurt again

  Good Morning, Folks! It is time for me to drop another #Mixtape on you from my #MixtapeMondays nonsense. This one is very much going to be an acquired taste, because it is essentially a nostalgic trip through the music that I used to skateboard to. This is what skater rock looked like prior to the existence of THPS. https://aggronaut.com/2026/05/11/mixtape-mondays-road-rash-rail/ #music #amlistening #indie #punk #thrashcore

  Friends... It's Eurovision season. Looking forward to watching the first of the semis tomorrow.

  Continuing to play some #LastEpoch and really enjoying the Acolyte/Necromancer so far. It's weird how over the last few years I have pivoted wildly on my opinion of playing "finger wigglers" aka casters. I sorta blame #PathOfExile to be honest because that is a game where playing a melee character... is the wrong choice heh.

  There is a whole-assed coffee table, but Gracie decides to stand exactly on top of the book my mom wanted me to buy for her... Thankfully, she didn't do anything to it. #Caturday

  Good Morning, Folks! Yesterday was the bit #PathOfExile2 reveal stream for the Return of the Ancients league, and holy crap was it massive. There is no way I can talk about everything, but this morning I discussed some of the high points for me personally. https://aggronaut.com/2026/05/08/ancients-league-is-gonna-be-wild/ #ARPG #MMO #MMORPG #VideoGames #Games #Gaming #PathofExile #POE

  Morning Folks. This morning I got curious, and it seems like #Diablo4 hit a new all-time peak on SteamDB four days ago. Combined with the activity I am seeing in-game, it seems like the game is in a very healthy state right now. I talk about this. https://aggronaut.com/2026/05/07/diablo-iv-has-good-numbers/ #D4 #DiabloIV #LordOfHatred #ARPG #MMO #MMORPG #VideoGames #Games #Gaming

  Mostly posting here so I will have a place to link it to a friend...

  Good Morning, Folks. Last night during sibling time, I ripped the band-aid off and went through the annoying process of respeccing my Paladin from Thorns to Arbiter/Blessed Hammer, and it has made a massive difference. https://aggronaut.com/2026/05/06/arbiter-is-awesome/ #Diablo4 #D4 #ARPG #MMO #MMORPG #VideoGames #Games #Gaming #Paladin #Arbiter #BlessedHammer

  I just had a brief panic attack as I could not remember if I fed the ferals.... so I checked the cameras, and did in fact see my dumbass lumbering out there to feed them

  My hot take of the day is that the worst thing WOTC ever did was create the reserved list. I think they should burn that shit down and reprint everything on it. I say this having tons of reserved list cards... but it's a game, not a stock market

  Morning Folks. It has been a bit since I have done what I am mentally referring to as "State of the Bel" post, where I talk about how the journey with cancer and chemo is going, and how I am doing. So that is what you are going to get this morning. https://aggronaut.com/2026/05/05/state-of-the-bel-round-three/

  I did not buy a Steam Controller today... not because I did not want one, but by the time I even realized it was on sale, it had sold out. Actually, it was in the process of selling out as I was trying to check out, because it errored out while I was trying to pay.

  Good Morning, Folks! At this point, I have beaten the #Diablo4 campaign for Lord of Hatred and talk a bit about that from a non-spoiler standpoint. I also talk about the current state of the endgame and how, in some ways, it feels like a step backwards. https://aggronaut.com/2026/05/01/great-story-meh-endgame/ #ARPG #MMO #MMORPG #VideoGames #Games #Gaming

  Morning Folks. Monday, the #Diablo4 expansion dropped, and for the first bit, I dealt with pretty frequent disconnects. I talk about this and how I abandoned #Warlock early on and returned to #Paladin. https://aggronaut.com/2026/04/29/diablo-disconnects/ #arpg #mmo #mmorpg #videogames #games #gaming #diablo

  I guess I may have sold my RV today? I had no intent of selling it, but also no real intent of ever using it again. It's from a very specific phase in life that we never really revisited after my wife's sister passed. Now that my wife has also passed... I have zero interest in it. It has been parked on a pad we built at my mother-in-law's, and I was fine to let it rot, but I am guessing she wants rid of it, given that she has passed on multiple suitors for it lately.

  Friends... it is a good day because we have new Poets of the Fall. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vY-RpfbyqcU

  Good Morning Folks. I'm roughly halfway throgh the evil lemon of chemo, and talk a bit about that, splotchie the stray cat, and some #LastEpoch and #PathofExile nonsense. https://aggronaut.com/2026/04/15/the-evil-lemon/ #ARPG #MMO #MMORPG #VideoGames #games #gaming #cancerboy #chemo

  What voodoo is this, that it looks like we are getting both a good MK movie, and what looks to be a great adaptation of Street Fighter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xt4X4FvXk2A

  It is no longer morning, but hey... here is a morning blog post. I talk about various medical updates, #PathOfExile challenge progress, finishing #Fallout s2, and starting #Monarch s2. https://aggronaut.com/2026/04/09/mr-house-and-scalpels/ #arpg #mmo #mmorpg #videogames #games #gaming #cancerboy

• Post #1139501

  Trying to reach a point of acceptance of just not writing anything when I am not feeling it. Don't have much of anything to say this morning that is really worth saying, so I'm not going to force a blog post.

  Sitting awkwardly in my car in the parking lot because I'm terrified of being late and as such way the fuck too early... The Belghast story

• Post #1139491

  This is "Splotchie" a grizzled tomcat that occasionally visits. Never been able to pet him, but he mostly tolerates me being around well enough. He also does not fight with my friendly feral Greybie, which is not true for some of the other Toms that have been around over the years. #cats #catsofmastodon

  Good Morning Folks! I managed to pull together another #MixtapeMondays post, this time anchored around Heathens by Twenty One Pilots. While I was going, the entire mix developed a Joker-themed subplot. The elements do not necessarily seem like they would fit together, but it flows pretty nicely. https://aggronaut.com/2026/02/09/mixtape-mondays-some-jokes-kill/ #mixtape #music #playlist

  Morning Folks. This weekend, I more or less arrived at a point of "normal", albeit one without much stamina as I prepared for the impending chemo week. I talk a bit about chipping away at challenges in #PathOfExile, and also rolling a new Fire Aura Spellblade in #LastEpoch. Ready for the bottom to fall out again. https://aggronaut.com/2026/04/13/freezing-fire-aura/ #arpg #mmo #mmorpg #videogames #games #gaming #cancerboy #cancer #chemo

  Morning Folks. Daily blogging has become a bit more of a challenge for me, but I will continue to post as time and availability put me in the position to do so. This morning I talked about winding down #LastEpoch, returning to farming challenges in #PathOfExile, and the brand new overlay tool, Scalpel. https://aggronaut.com/2026/04/08/more-challenges-and-a-new-tool/
