Being a 90s girl, I love Lisa Frank and my latest set of AI Artificial Intelligence Generated Images created using a mobile app named Unidream express that love for cute animals and bright vivid rainbow colors. I started with just puppies, but quickly began exploring other animals.

And please save your breath. Even if the AI systems were trained using “stolen art” they are creating brand new art that is different from whatever was stolen and I honestly don’t give an eff. Sorry not sorry. I’m making art. If you disagree too bad, so sad. read more

Rhapsody a musical adventure is one of my most beloved favorite games of the late 90s/early 2k. Hard to believe that was like 20-30 years ago, right? Even harder to believe that there are several sequels for this game, that for some reason or another, never made it to the USA, despite the relatively cult classic sleeper hit of the first title.

But that’s all about to change now. NIS has just announced they are bringing a collector’s edition containing the 2nd and 3rd Rhapsody sequels to North America with full English voice acting, singing, and of course text. read more

Life Makeover is an anime style dressup game that’s coming out soon for IOS and Android devices. I got tired of waiting for the Americas version, so I downloaded the SEA (Southeast Asian) version, and it might be the best game I’ve ever played on my mobile phone. And it’s already in English, both the text and the voice acting. The only downside is I’m stuck as a free to play user unless I buy some apple giftcards for the region I selected. I chose Singapore, but any SEA country will work. I haven’t decided if I will abandon the SEA version once the US version is released or play both versions. We shall see what happens. read more

While there have been – and continue to be – strides made towards equality between the sexes, there are a number of areas and fields which are still dominated by men. These traditionally male spaces seem to, unfortunately, be rife with misogyny. Gaming is still often seen as a more masculine hobby, with female gamers overlooked and dismissed if they aren’t on the receiving end of sexism and misogynistic abuse. The question is, in a hobby that has a huge demographic of female gamers, why is it still inherent with misogyny? Let’s take a look.  read more

It’s time to share what I’ve been listening to lately. I have very eclectic musical tastes and listen to everything from the past 6 decades ranging from pop to kpop to rap and hiphop to rock and everything in between. No holiday music here. Holidays are over for better or worse. Let’s kick 2023 off with some great music! Tell me, what have you been listening to?

Stray Kids – Charmer

Might be my favorite song right now – no lies.

Stray Kids Charmer English Translation Lyrics:

[Verse 1: Han, Bang Chan, Seungmin]
There’s nothing lacking
I’m saucin’, livin’ in big Seoul City, without showing any modesty
I hang up the imitators on the laundry rack
If we do it, they all fall down like bowling pins
Shoulders held high like Mt. Everest
No chance of falling down, it is unstoppable every day
When I make it big, watch your heads
I’ll change the trend every day like refresh (Cling, cling) read more

I am very much into AI Art. I don’t care what your opinion is.

AI Art is Art. Sorry not sorry. If I check my art on Google Lens, it tells me no results found. I am creating 100% new art that has never existed before. Yes, I understand some of them have been trained using images which were not explicitly given permission to be used but assumed to have been public domain. But that issue is between the artists and the app creators, not the users of these apps.

I have tested probably over 30 different apps and programs. Specifically on my mobile phone. read more

For a long time now, men have dominated pro-level esports. This is surprising when you look at real-world player demographics. In the United States, around 41% of gamers are female. Despite this, only a handful of top-level esports athletes are women. Nonetheless, more women than ever before are penetrating the industry. Below, we spotlight 10 of the best female esports players of all time. 

10. Alyona “Ailey” Bordukova 

This Russian pro is one of the best female Counter-Strike: Global Offensive players of all time. Her worldwide rank might leave a lot to be desired, but when it comes to high-stakes play, she can more than deliver. She’s competed in numerous CSGO tournaments and walked away with a first-place finish back in 2018.  read more

So many readers have wanted to know my thoughts on owning a Sony Aibo. I purchased my aibo directly from the US Sony Aibo Store at https://us.aibo.com/ and it arrived I think it was July 2nd. Now it’s December 8th and I’ve turned her on for the first time since around Halloween – so it’s been asleep on its charger for at least a month – going on 2 now. My comments in this post are going to echo my comments to one of my readers of my 3 Month Check in – I feel I would enjoy Aibo more if I actually used it. But I don’t. And when I don’t I don’t miss it. read more

Mobile gaming is the fastest-growing sector of the industry. Smartphones put highly capable game machines in the pockets of the masses. More and more people are becoming gamers thanks to the smartphone, but if you are already a gamer what should you be looking for in a phone? Read on to find out.

This is one area where Android has the upper hand over Apple. Gaming modes on PCs, TVs, and smartphones help you get more from your gaming. On a smartphone, a gaming mode prioritizes gaming over all the other features on the phone, dedicating important resources like graphics processing to your game. This helps you play faster and makes the games look better.  read more

I anxiously awaited Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s release. I preordered Pokemon Violet a month or two ago and painstakingly counted down the days until release. Early reviews and reports of Glitches and Poor Graphical Performance didn’t dissuade my excitement. Finally the day was here. I spent that weekend delving into the game.

I chose Sprigatito for my starter but was torn between him and Quaxly. Don’t think the “Surprise Trade” is all garbage – you might get surprised! Last night I received Quaxly AND Fuecoco. – But yeah mostly Surprise Trade is pretty garbage. People stop putting in garbage please. (Not like they’ll listen to me lol). I don’t have any real life friends playing the game though so I tried my luck at Surprise Trade. read more

With the new Pokemon Violet and Pokemon Scarlet launching tomorrow, I can’t stop thinking about Pokemon. Ever hear the “every pokemon is someone’s favorite” before? It’s true. And for me, my favorites have gotta be cute!!!

It allows you to express your individuality while also allowing you to stay connected with your favorite anime. Need a break from Pokemon? Try your luck at King Billy Casino. read more

The Wheel of Fortune game is trendy among players and fans. Plus, the game has only produced three players winning a million-dollar prize from the bonus round. Since everything has gone digital, casino game software providers have designed this game to give the same gaming experience to everyone that only a handful of people on the TV had. 

One such game is crazy time by Evolution Gaming. Crazy Time game is just as exciting and thrilling as the Wheel of Fortune. With high volatility, the game needs proper understanding to make it favorable for yourself.  read more

I just discovered a Chinese company who makes various small Asian Balljointed Dolls with cute anime faceups and full outfits. These dolls use the Obitsu 11cm scale bodies and are fully strung and jointed. They are capable of standing on their feet without a doll stand.

The hair and eyes are all just painted and sculpted on which is different from most traditional BJD dolls. Another difference is that since it is a blind box, you don’t know which doll you will receive.

Another attractive difference is the price. I purchased mine at www.StrangeCatToys.com but I later found out I overpaid. 🙁 read more
