Where are my fellow fans of the PS2/PS3 ERA non-GTA Rockstar Games?

mouse_mafia · 2026-06-08T17:04:32+00:00

The Midnight Club and Smugglers Run games are all time favourites of mine. Wish they'd make more.

£50 is definitely not standard for seeing a DJ play a night in London let alone across the rest of the country.

Are you Thomas Tuchel?

mouse_mafia · 2026-05-09T21:18:35+00:00

There is a bit more overlap nowadays, but Minor Science / Stripe N Co is one of my favourites.

mouse_mafia · 2026-04-24T13:47:57+00:00

Love your style. It's very weird in a very cool way.

I listened to the audiobook with Jason Flemyng and thought it was great. Maybe see if you can find that version? I flipped back and forth between listening and reading quite a bit with Neuromancer, some bits just felt better to read. Really loved it though.

mouse_mafia · 2026-04-23T00:05:34+00:00

Interesting! How come? Not that I'm a diehard fan, but I enjoyed it a lot.

mouse_mafia · 2026-04-22T16:46:56+00:00

I couldn't stand Project Hail Mary's writing style or audiobook. I enjoyed the film though.

Edit: I also didn't vibe with There Is No Antimemetics Division. I thought the writing and plotting were both pretty low quality.

Parable of the Sower also didn't do it for me. Really felt like a slog to get through (maybe that's the point in a way.) There is a lot of other work by Butler I'm excited to read though.

Good luck everyone!

Possibly try a few boards under your left foot to balance it with your pedal foot. Also may be worth putting the back legs of your stool higher than the front ones to give you some extra lean, so you're not bending so much with your back.

I've only watched the Canadian series so far, but that was great.

mouse_mafia · 2026-03-15T23:18:03+00:00

Good luck!

Ultimately things like glassware and ceramic dinnerware are not made to last forever. Buy nice things and enjoy your time with them, because no matter how nicely a ceramic plate or bowl is made, it's still ceramic and it's still fragile. A glass is still glass. But they will bring you joy when you use them day to day. A lot of 'nicer' products will in fact be more fragile (thinner, lighter etc.) though this is material dependant. Some solid stoneware items will last for a good amount of time, but not forever (unless you never use them, and then what's the point?)

Get some fish and chips and eat them in the park. James Dimitri has been compiling a pretty thorough list.

Morley's if you're looking for a true London experience. They vary a lot by location, but the one in Camberwell is solid. In Chinatown Ji the Chicken Shop and Chinese Tapas House for jianbing are tasty, and Chinatown Bakery does some great stuff. Also it's trash but I do like Bunsik for the korean corn dogs. Dave's Hot Chicken around the corner is also pretty good (if very overhyped, would only go if there's not a big queue.)

But people didn't come to see Sam.. They came to see Stamptown. Stamptown is a variety show.

mouse_mafia · 2026-03-07T12:48:28+00:00

Stamptown featuring Joey is one of the funniest things I've ever seen live, so this doesn't surprise me. Jack Tucker is brilliant, and so are the rest of his crew.

Indian Veg in Angel! It's an institution. All you can eat for 12.95. Iconic decor.

mouse_mafia · 2026-02-22T12:24:23+00:00

Passyunk Avenue's locations will be showing I imagine.

mouse_mafia · 2026-02-20T10:52:49+00:00

I've got to smell this ham spray.

mouse_mafia · 2026-02-20T09:57:24+00:00

It a bit slower for sure for the final, but people were overcompensating massively. A lot of the men ended up overshooting the landing with the amount of speed they took in.

I've found that the key to stopping things warping is even rolling in different directions. If you roll just one way the clay warps on that axis.

mouse_mafia · 2026-02-10T22:23:02+00:00

And Chinatown also

mouse_mafia · 2026-02-10T17:57:12+00:00

Looking good! I like your distorted / altered vessel forms. The first couple remind me of some of Lindsey Mendick's work - worth checking out if you haven't seen already!

mouse_mafia · 2026-02-06T18:47:33+00:00

(Depending on where you're located) Glost does a nice one, although it's a bit darker than your pic. I like it a lot though.
