My son and I started playing #FinalFantasy9. Loving all the #airships (only some of which are blowing up!) and it feels like a great refinement of the systems from #FinalFantasy7, which is the one from this era I've played the most.
Most games I play nowadays fit easily into my "dad" life. They have gameplay loops of about 20-30 minutes and generous saving systems. So far, Final Fantasy IX's checkpoints are 40-60 minutes apart, which make perfect sense for game in isolation but are a little stressful for me; my life is just shaped a little differently than what the game expects.
Playing this on my modded #PS2, by the way! Ripped my discs and converted them to .vcd, uploaded them with #PSBBN, uploaded to a harddrive embeded in the console. Great that new mod tools are still being made! https://github.com/CosmicScale/PSBBN-Definitive-Project

"A daytime snowfall in front of airships in sepia", by yours truly. They're not easy to make out in the storm, but once you've seen it, you can't un-see it: imagine flying your plane into a storm only to emerge through a portal into The World of Tomorrow....

Sometimes after an adventure, Zeppelins need to lie down and have a little sleep. Don't disturb them!

another painting coming with me to anthro new england friday, but what will be in my shop if it doesnt find a home there.
like most of my dragon paintings, this was largely an experiment in wrangling my own anxiety

So, I just caught a bit of a story about #Airships broadcasting signals -- potentially replacing satellites! Personally, I think there's too many satellites to begin with, but airships are so #Steampunk. However, would we want as many airships as there are satellites? Hmmmm...

This is fantastic. I was immensely disappointed and my day was ruined when I learned that there are good reasons why #airships haven’t made a comeback, and are unlikely to return except perhaps in niche applications. The biggest is that they are simply too vulnerable to weather.

I lived in Bedfordshire in my young years and the UK version of the Goodyear airship flew out of Cardington, Bedford. Always a joy to see an airship.
Sadly never got to see "the flying bum".
