Blaugust Prompt #10 – The process behind my blog posts

Do I have specific routines for the process of creating a blog post? Are there differences between different types of posts? Do I only write posts on my PC? Do I only write at certain given times? Do I have a schedule for recurring topics? Well, this question and everything around the process of creating... Continue Reading →

Blaugust Prompt #8.5 – Characters that tell something about me

Just yesterday, we talked about mascots and our favourite protagonists. The latter was the prompt that Bel gave to Tessa, though she then modified it. Her slightly modified prompt was "Share characters that tell us something about you!" But I don't think that this prompt is too different from my previous choices. At first, I... Continue Reading →

TSS#72 – Blaugust Prompt #6 – My favourite quote(s)

What is my favourite Quote and why? Who the fuck is Todd Howards anyways? Why the fuck do I need to drag philosophy into this? These questions and possibly others in today's post! "Today" is Wilhelm's turn to hold the Blaugust baton and host "today"'s prompt for the Blaugust Promptapalooza! "Today" is in quotation marks... Continue Reading →

TSS#71 – Blaugust Prompt #5 – Rituals?

This brings me back a bit but I actually talked about today's prompt before when I just started blogging and when I entered Blaugust for the first time last year. It feels like ages but it's only been a year since I wrote about this. Today's prompt is the following:  Everyone has specific rituals that... Continue Reading →

TSS#69 – Blaugust Prompt #3 – Media shapes your worldview?

Blaugust Day 3 is here, and I'm late since I struggled with putting my thoughts into words. "What are some key sources of media (games/movies/etc.) that have shaped your worldview?" I do not like this prompt.  My worldview is based on all the experiences that I accumulated over the course of the last 21 years... Continue Reading →

TSS#68 – Blaugust Prompt #2 – Unpopular Opinions

"What is some popular piece of content/media that seems to be universally loved that you have never been able to understand?" - That's today's prompt, "hosted" by @Dragonray over at AzerothianLife. In their post, Dragon actually talked about Game of Thrones and I completely agree with her views. I personally only have watched the first... Continue Reading →

TSS#67 – Blaugust Prompt #1 – Fandoms

Blaugust is here! I mean, August is here!  Alas, here's the first prompt by Belghast: "If you could change anything about one of your core fandoms, what would it be?" - and I'm already confused. My issue with this one is that I don't think I'm part of really any fandom... at least I'm no... Continue Reading →

TSS#66 – Blaugust, Cats, and Drafts

Welcome to another Stray Sheep. Today I'll talk about the upcoming Blaugust event, my participation in that, and other things. I hope you enjoy this post!  Let's get right into it: It's nearly August and therefore it's time for Blaugust. But since we already participated in Blapril just a few months ago, Bel thought of... Continue Reading →

TSS#65 – My Shaky Moral High Ground

In the past, I've talked about my core beliefs and ideals already. It has lead to the decision to not review Heartbeat, for instance, because I wouldn't want to review and promote a game that is made by people actively harming others... But as time went on, I noticed that my thinking may be flawed.... Continue Reading →

TSS#64 – Mystery Blogger Award

The Mystery Blogger Award is an award for amazing bloggers with ingenious posts. Their blog not only captivates; it inspires and motivates. They are one of the best out there, and they deserve every recognition they get. This award is also for bloggers who find fun and inspiration in blogging, and they do it with so much...

TSS#63 – The current situation and my opinion, I guess

This is a shorter longer post and potentially a bit "heavier" than usual but this time around it's about "our voice" and about politics in a way. It's about my beliefs and my take on the matter and everything that is going on right now... and I'm telling all kinds of -ists and -phobes to... Continue Reading →

TSS #62 – On the Lookout!

The last Stray Sheep has been half a month ago already so I thought I'd post something in that section already. This time around, we're talking about categories! Currently, I'm doing mostly reviews (Indietail) since I originally wanted to do exactly that, review titles in my library and work through my backlog. The Gaming Journey... Continue Reading →

TSS #61 – Blapril 2020 Wrap-Up

Blapril2020 is over and this is a wrap-up post!  Just the other day, Belghast posted his Blapril-Rundown with all the stats, awards and participants and therefore concluded the event for now.  "During the entire series run of March 29th through May 9th we had 48 total participants and they crafted 1124 blog posts. This works... Continue Reading →

TSS #60 – Toxic People

This is a post about toxic people and toxicity in general, I guess. And to make this post less sad or personal or heavy, I'm also adding cat pictures into the mix - and I'm not adding any pictures of cats that I know and love but generic cat pictures from the wordpress library to... Continue Reading →

TSS#58 – Getting Old

I'm starting to get old.  My tutors are starting to use programs I've never heard about like Zoom and Rocketchat and while I'm able to use Zoom right now... I'm completely failing at Rocketchat and have no clue what I'm supposed to do. Signing in doesn't seem to work and using the link and the... Continue Reading →

TSS#57 – Taking a day off bloggin’

Yesterday I took a day off bloggin'. And that's weird. It's weird as I'm taking the blog as a burden of sorts again, which is bad.  I mean, I don't have to post daily and I don't have to post too much anymore. I know that I won't be able to post the previously planned... Continue Reading →

The Stray Sheep #56 – Uni@Home

On April 1st, University should have started… but due to the state the world was in, it got delayed to today. And since the world is still in this state, "Uni@Home" is the solution that our University went for. Essentially, all of my classes are being held via "Zoom", an app just like Skype or... Continue Reading →

The Stray Sheep #55 – Blaugust is hard and Blapril is harder

Blaugust is hard. Blapril is arguably harder. After all, you'll need one extra post in thirty days! For the past couple of days, I've been struggling with blog posts. At first, I thought it was the topics that I've chosen - I mean, I've got twenty drafts sitting there and none are particularly finished. But... Continue Reading →

The Stray Sheep #54 – Ugh where do I even start

Lately, I've been feeling sluggish and restless. I'm getting enough sleep and waking up at "normal times" but I still end up not getting much done. Therefore, I thought I'd take this opportunity and write a post about it.  As already mentioned in previous posts, I'm not able to write up the two posts per... Continue Reading →

The Stray Sheep #53 – Shopping carts are weird

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! IT'S ANOTHER COVID-POST! Well, over here in Germany they wanted to implement a law that would force everyone to wear face masks…. but the German military somehow lost a ton of them in Kenia and therefore we don't have enough to supply all citizens and all the hospitals. So instead…. there's no law like... Continue Reading →

The Stray Sheep #51 – Kinda Cute Words

Welcome in to today's Stray Sheep (technically #52 but it's called #51 for now)! Today we are continuing something that we started last year... Enjoy! Note: For whatever reason #52 came out before #51. I apologize for that but I'm not planning on changing it any time soon! I need to challenge the headache that... Continue Reading →

The Stray Sheep #52 – I can’t say showering or towel

So, today I felt overly sick which is why I didn't release a post yet and alas had to polish my MonHun-Witcher-post and finish this one. Sorry if this one is a bit shorter than usual or more nonsensical. So, today's Stray Sheep is about words I'm bad at pronouncing. Why am I talking about... Continue Reading →

TSS#50 – How to unfuck your sleep schedule

In today's Stray Sheep we'll talk about resetting your sleep schedule and how to tackle that. I'm proficient in this as I've reset my sleep schedule quite often and hence, I'm letting y'all know how I do things! So, my sleep schedule is fucked right now and alas I'm trying to unfuck it. But how... Continue Reading →

TSS#49 – Playing chess with pigeons

This is my 101st post on this blog ever since its creation at the end of July. And this post is about Corona. Woohoo. In today's Stray Sheep, we're talking about some annoying bits regarding the lockdown and my situation right now. I'm healthy. I'm safe. I'm fine. Overall, I guess. Lately, I've been feeling... Continue Reading →

TSS#47 – Memento Mori

This post started rather dark but I don't want it to sound too emo, especially because it's not supposed to sound like that. This post is about getting older or rather about noticing that you're getting older. Also it's supposed to be uplifting, so don't take it too serious. Thanks. Enjoy. :) For quite some... Continue Reading →

TSS#45 – The Coronapocolypse?

Today's Stray Sheep is about my current Covid-19-situation. How are things going for me? How am I holding up over here? What's the situation in Germany? Note: Today's post is accompanied by Screenshots from MHW and uhm... yes, I'm behind on posts. I'm working on it. If you know the game, you may notice that... Continue Reading →

TSS#44 – Heroes in these times

Today's Stray Sheep is different... in these quite different times. There are people out there that don't realise how great and important it is that they are doing what they are doing. And I'd like to thank them and praise them or rather sing hymns about them (semi-ironically)... but I shouldn't sing as I really... Continue Reading →

TSS#42 – #LoveYourBacklog Week 2020

This Friday is Valentine's Day and you know who most of us probably haven't shown any love to, yet? The backlog of games in our library! Kim from Later Levels wrote about this topic on her blog and started a movement of bloggers out there sharing some love for their backlogs! Yay! But then again, it... Continue Reading →

TSS#41 – We did a 24 hour stream

Happy new year everyone! It's been a while since I posted something on this small little piece of work that I'm calling my blog.  So far, it's been quite busy university-wise but I still kind of managed to squeeze in a little bit of gaming-time in my free time and I streamed all of it.... Continue Reading →

TSS#40 – Merry christmas!

I don't celebrate christmas but that doesn't hinder me from wishing everyone a merry one and the best for the new year! It's a bit early for that but I thought that it's better than being late, I guess! I hope you'll have fun with your friends and family and uhm... Here's some of my... Continue Reading →
