  • Still chipping away Silksong. Early Act 2 got 1 melody, finally unlocked plasmium from wormways because I thought using simple key for deep docks was a good idea (not).

    Rasher delivery wish is a bitch. I know there’s a run fast tools but have no idea where it is. Practising parry but the only mob available is grand reeds and idk if their silk attack can be parried or not (I swear I saw a video of someone doing it but can’t find it now)

    Risk of Rain 2

    God, I suck at this.

    No Rest For the Wicked

    I apparently didn’t like souls-like combat. The equipment weight mechanics didn’t make sense and too restrictive on variety (I like glass cannon)

    Contemplating picking up Borderlands 3 + dlc or Borderlands 4. (Idc about the story that much, I just like the gameplay)







  • How is khlatak different? It’s lamb/mutton meat, chunkier cut. Usually serve with gulai (idk curry soup) I’m much prefer this one than Padang but that’s just my biased palate (Padang located on Sumatra Island)

    I actually went to the house of raminten the other day, if you scroll back a few posts you can see the bamboo chicken I posted!

    Oh I missed that ! Haven’t went there myself and it’s been years since I visit Yogja.

    That’s the second time somebody had told me about bakpia, should I look for it in bakeries or roti shops?

    Nah, it’s everywhere especially around Malioboro, there’s a bunch of dedicated gift shop and you can shop other snacks while there.

    Just asked around for it or google “bakpia pathok” it sold in a box and different brands don’t differ that much.

    I think it started with mung bean/red bean but there’s a bunch of other fillings like cheese, chocolate, cappuccino etc. Philippines called it Moon Cake iirc.

    I’ve had kwetiau, mi goreng, cumi and udang cabe garam, siumai, other types of sate, all sorts of stuff, I love exploring a country through its food.

    There’s “Soto Sampah” (Garbage Soups) there which pretty popular, it will be standard soup anywhere else but they decided to give it a funny name there.

    I like walking around in the rain anyway

    Man, I’ve had enough with the rain, I miss sunshine. It’s been flooding everywhere and also destroys the road. Well its par for the course, I guess.


  • Cool, nice island! It’s pretty hot for me, but I prefer much colder weather as a baseline. More than the heat though, the humidity is so heavy it feels like I’m swimming through the air.

    Figure, though I have no reference how dry air actuality feels since it’s pretty much humid all year round.

    There was actually an earthquake about 30 minutes ago here!

    I didn’t even know that, the news says it’s pretty mild.

    I like it! Monsoon season is my favorite season. Plus the people here have been so kind, it’s been a really positive trip so far.

    Glad to hear that, the general consensus is we’re pretty friendly toward foreigner.

    Got any food recommendations?

    What have you tried?

    The usual suspects for Yogyakarta is :

    • Gudeg (Slow cooked Jackfruit, sweet/savory) Gudeg Pawon is the famous one.
    • Sate Klathak ( Satay, griilled meat )the famous one is Pak Bari (Mr Bari) or Pak Pong
    • Bakmi (noodles)
    • The House of Raminten, local legend serve pretty much everything
    • Angkringan, IDK how to describe this one, maybe it’s like Izakaya
    • Bakpia, some kinda biscuit.







  • I knew it haha. I already watching Journal with Witch since I love the manga so much. Grieve is such a strange feelings for me because I never experience a loss of immediate family, yet. Ofc I’ve lost pets/partner but I’m guessing a family member are a different beast altogether. In my mid 30s and dreading everyday cos my folks ain’t getting any younger.

    Now if the rest of the season is like first two, I think they did a goos job. Just the inclusion of sound alone make the 1st episode better than the manga IMO.

    “So that’s what Asa’s singing and how she sounds like”, I think this is the only series that make me yearn so much for adaptation, and quite surprise they did.

    Didn’t know about Wonder Egg Priority, I’ll check it out but the subject matter probably too dark for me though.
