    That looks like like a Bavarian Fahnenweihfest conducted by the Voluntary Fire Department. Never seen a sack barrow utilized in one of those, but why not. Seems like a quaint local tradition. I used to be a voluntary fire fighter. I hold those people in very high regards.

    What are you playing this weekend/these days?

    Finished Stick it to the Man!, kind of an item based adventure with some basic platforming and, I guess you could call it, a bit of sneaking. It is beautifully drawn, the voice acting is great and I liked the humor.

    Just finished Signalis. Neat Resident-Evil-like about android-like constructs called Replikas and their mental breakdown due to some eldritch shenanigans. I enjoyed most of it except that, if you want to see a ending other than the default bad one, you have to replay the game and do highly...

    England is working on laws giving special protections exclusively to Muslims, so the latter can live "their lives without fear". I was tempted to post this in the Absurdism corner.

    The Communication Cube

    Weird that there were no Western lefty protests when the Iranian regime shut down the country's internet and went on to kill 30-40k people in the streets, even in hospitals. But the same day those murderers are killed the lefty protests start in the West. Huh. It's like those lefty people don't...

    What are you playing this weekend/these days?

    Finished the remake of Sherlock Holmes The Awakened. The graphics and voice acting are very good, the story is Lovecraftian. Thankfully it doesn't try and show you the eldritch horrors except in the form of a few statues. You collect clues and combine them in a sort of mind map to get answers on...

    The Communication Cube

    Sadly islamists are doing islamist things. They've been reported moving forces and material in or near school buildings, yearning for the international press of westerners attacking schools.

    Retro Flohmarkt in Kelkheim am 08.03.2026

    Ach, schade, dachte kurz das wäre ein Tippfehler und es würde sich um Kelheim handeln. Eintrittspreise für Flohmarkt*besucher* hab' ich in meinen ü40 Jahren allerdings auch noch nicht gesehen.

    I've finished all Deponias, Dark Eye Chains of Satinav, the Edna games, A New Beginning. I'm kinda half-way through Night of the Rabbit and Whispered World. I think Anna's Quest is the weakest of their titles and the Deponias are their best with quite a big difference between those two.

    Just finished Anna's Quest, point'n'click from the Deponia devs. It was alright, nothing to write home about.

    Khamenei reported dead. I hope that means that we don't get a stream of "war refugees" running to the "nearest safe country" i.e. Europe/Germany.

    What are you playing this weekend/these days?

    Just finished Lost in Play. It's a puzzle game that's beautifully drawn and animated in the style of Gravity Falls. Great music, too. Nice little brain teasers. I'd play more of that. Reminds me of Puzzle Agent. Recommended! Edit: Returned a Steam game for the first time, Marvel's Midnight...

    Considering the hole in the wall I'd add other body parts to the warning.
