Monday Morning Commute: As lonely as you let it be
SK3RTT | slimesunday
One of the things that has struck me, on this, my wife’s fourth day away on her current business trip, is how much time I used to spend alone. Reflecting back, graduate school was just hours upon hours of me by myself, stuck in a study. Staring at a computer screen. Reading works. Contemplating bullshit academic sophistry. And, of course, writing for Omega Level.
On this, my wife’s fourth day away on her current business trip, I think I understand why I wrote so much and so openly about my cock, balls, fluids, and all sorts of weird fetishes (I still do have, but no longer flaunt so openly).
Being alone does things to you, man.
Each of these days I’ve found myself soaked in a Diet Dew haze, my hands covered in failed-children and coconut Vaseline, a stupor of unwanted freedom for a countenance. The more I seem to caffeinate, the more trips to PornHub I make, the more concerned my dog looks as I stumble around the house with my underwear around my ankles and the paper towels eluding me, the more I understand my former-self.
My former-self is really just my current-self, but far more lonely, and with far too much time on his hands.
On this, my wife’s fourth day away on her current business trip, I think I should point out to you that she’s going to be gone for another ten out of fourteen days or so.
Buckle up, good friends, OverCaffeinatedCaffeinePowered is upon you.
This is Monday Morning Commute. This is the weekly column where I list what I’m up to during a given week. I hope you’ll share what you’re doing in the comments section below. I hope you’ll keep me company. For me. For my concerned dog. For my chaffed cock and balls and crusty t-shirts and my shattered sanity and my Diet Dew-fort and my anxiety.

‘Deus Ex: Mankind Divided’ Launch Trailer: You Can Kill Your (Cyberpunk) Dreams
I’ve already prepurchased this game. But this trailer gets me so hype. I’ve already prepurchased this game. But I’m worried it’s going to be a letdown. I’ve already prepuchased this game.
‘Deus Ex: Mankind Divided’ delayed until August 23; I may be done with ‘Fallout 4’ by then
I was sort of shocked when UbiFolk announced that the new Deus Ex was dropping early next year. The game had just been revealed, these sort of AAA games take forever to develop, you know, that happy horseshit. Seemed…too soon. And! Apparently it was, since the game has been delayed.
‘Deus Ex: Mankind Divided’ gets February 2016 release date and “tiered” preorder bonuses
Oh dear. Preorder gaming promotions have leveled up. Evolved. Let’s scratch for the moment the fact that I’m very excited for the next Deus Ex. Instead, let’s focus on what could be a truly nefarious (albeit sadly rewarding) preorder scheme launched by Square Enix.
‘Deus Ex: Mankind Divided’ will have a New Game Plus mode, as all futzing games should
Back in the day when I actually wrote things, I wrote about how every fucking game should have New Game+. It was a seminal piece in the world of Gaming Journalism™, and I’m glad to see that Ubisoft clearly a) read the piece, b) agreed with the piece, and c) put my obvious policies into practice.
Leaked: ‘Deus Ex: Mankind Divided’ for PC, PS4 and XB1
