Posted on April 8, 2025 by baudattitude

Let’s (not?) Get Physical.

Posted on August 5, 2024 by baudattitude

A few years ago – like, maybe 2017, 2018? – I decided that I was done with physical media.  Games, books, movies, music, you name it, it was going to be ephemeral digital downloads from now on.  No more shelves … Continue reading →
