potatobrarian | A chat about Hades, the Hugo Awards, wine, Cork Dork, plumbing, rats, and The Strain @potatobrarian2731 | Uploaded December 2020 | Updated October 2024, 53 minutes ago.
Existing in-between joy and displeasure this past week, like I'm in a Florence+The Machine song or something.
As usual, this got way longer than I wanted (but could not be cut shorter than I needed), so have some timestamps so you can jump around and find what matters to YOU:
0:00-1:27-- Intro
1:28-8:44-- Hades
8:45-12:12-- The Hugo Awards (in relation to Hades)
12:13-13:49-- Wine acquisition + the cold
13:50-17:59-- Wine + Cork Dork
18:00-25:18-- Cork Dork + the science of smell + plumbing adventures
25:19-46:44- The Strain + rat hate
Things I mentioned:
Hades, from Supergiant Games:

The Hugo Awards' Best Video Game award:
