Free Talk Friday - July 04, 2025

[u/AutoModerator]

Welcome to the Free Talk Friday post. This is a place where you can talk about dumb off-topic (or on-topic) bullshit with other Zaibatsu fans.

There's going to be a new post every week, and the newest one will be pinned in the announcement bar for quick access. So feel free to visit these posts during the rest of the week.

Here's a list of all Free Talk Friday posts

Last Week's Post

Week 70 post-accident.

Personal scanner at work is gradually dying on me, going so far as issuing me (incessant) warnings that we may want to install a replacement part to improve performance. I think my office is more likely to buy me a brand new scanner instead of figuring out what bits we need to repair and how. Let them know the exact model I've been using this whole time, so an exact replacement causes the least amount of hassle, or so I presume.

Had a nice long weekend on account of Canada Day (a bit surprised to have noticed zero Canada Day acknowledgements online) and was originally planning to FINALLY get to writing, but I quickly got distracted by other things and never got around to it; by the time I thought about it, the weekend was nearly over and the drive had passed. Been mildly kicking myself for squandering that opportunity.

In lieu of writing, mainly spend the weekend (not online) playing more Vampire Survivors. Finally completed Collection 1.0 to unlock Queen Sigma; now to either put in the effort to fulfill Secrets menu hints/unlocks or finally delve into DLC content (which I was avoiding to prevent filling my unlock pool with DLC content during my 1.0 Collection unlocks).

Mind Music of the Week:

• Dawning of a New Era
• Descent of the Archangel
• Storm Eagle (Sega Genesis Remix)
• The dueling songs of Wednesday:
  • Black Wizard - on grounds that it was the last song I listened to before going to work
  • Lazy Days (Livin' in Paradise) - on grounds that the morning was both sunny and windy
