LootCrate finally got my attention. . "The theme this month is METAL!" they said. "Metal... Sonic! Metal... Gear? Metal... something related to Doom?" I asked. . Yes, they had my number. These pieces are brilliant and the quality is shockingly great. The cacodemon bottle opener seems especially good for, ahem, surrendering to one's demons. . #BlastProcessing #retrogaming #lootcrate #lootgaming #metalgear #metalgearsolid #foxhound #sonicthehedgehog #metalsonic #doom #cacodemon #spiderman #spidermanps4 (at Flint, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoPOTf-lKLk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1hdfsz2gnu7rq

I like science fiction, Androids, melodrama, and quick-time-events, but the actual Detroit is still better than digital. Nothing illustrates richness and flavor like a spiral of electroluminescent gases in the shape of your meal. . ps @johnnynoodleking please bring back spicy udon I am suffering without its embrace thank you . #BlastProcessing #Detroit #detroitbecomehuman #detroitbecomeramen #johnnynoodleking #neon #noodles #ramen #udon #pleasemoreudon (at Johnny Noodle King)

Some day, many years after I'm gone, my grown children will look back on my old corner chair in my somber, dusty study, and, smiling, think to themselves, "Jesus, that old guy's fixation on working a retro-90's aesthetic into everything he did really undermined any presence of authority he could've had." . And then they'll look at each other mournfully, and return to sleeping on cots in the basement next to the bronze Segata Sanshiro statue I spent their college money on. . #BlastProcessing #retrogaming #segasaturn #segagenesis #sonicmania #sonicmaniaplus #sonicthehedgehog #metropolis #gotweirdlydarkthere (at Flint, Michigan)

Now that I've finally got everything wired up, I've just remembered that I have no skill with a fightstick whatsoever and that's why I never owned one. . . what the hell am i doing with this thing . #sega #segasaturn #retrogaming #blastprocessing (at Flint, Michigan)
