The big news first: I just joined DKatalis as a Senior Engineer. I am excited to start this new chapter.

Bigger news at home: we are expecting our second child. Kiara is about to become a big sister, and I am equal parts excited and bracing for the chaos.

Football Manager and FIFA are still the easy off switch. Three Kingdoms might come back off the shelf now that work feels steadier again.

Gracia from JKT48 has graduated, and I am still not fully over it. She will still be the one. That said, the shelf has candidates circling: Marsha, Freya, Lana, Kimmy, Gracie, Michie, Zee, Oniel, Alya, and Ve. Potential replacements on paper. In practice, Gracia still wins.

Still re-reading Naruto more times than I will admit in polite company. Dandadan and Sakamoto Days stay in the rotation. My Hero Academia is still the manga I keep losing my place in.

UFC is still in the rotation.
