War Thunder: Fun Moments, Endless Bull: A Ground & Air Rant
Heya everybody, it’s me, AliasRZ, with our second summer gaming blog post. These hobby ones are gonna run longer than the usual Room Zero stuff, so buckle up. I’ve had War Thunder installed for years, but only started playing it seriously last year. I’ve been grinding the ground tree and dipping into aviation, mainly with China, Italy, and France. The game has its enjoyable moments… but holy Moley, it’s bullshit in a lot of ways. I’ll stick to Ground (RB + Arcade) and Aviation (Arcade only). However, correct me if I get any info wrong in the comments, considering I’m not knowledgeable about tanks or aircraft. (nobody plays navel btw…

NFS Pre-Black Box Era: Nostalgia Trip or Setup Nightmare?

Like many HU students, I don’t have a car or a ride, so I took an Uber after classes. Got to UPS,…

“New Hire at GameStop (a.k.a. My Descent Into Retail Absurdity)”
Welcome back to another post by yours truly, AliasRZ. As mentioned in my last post, I hadn’t written in a while—mainly because of school, work, and general “life being life” energy. So let’s talk about the thing currently eating my free time and my kneecaps: my first job. After a year of applying, being ghosted, rejected, and ignored by every company under the sun, I finally got hired. At a GameStop.Minimum wage.Retail starter pack unlocked. I was hyped. Retail experience? Finally earning some money on the side? Sounds like a win. …Or so I thought. 🧠 Day 1: “Training” Training in quotes because really, it was me standing behind the…
