The weekend is for having been invited to a lot of dinner parties, which feels very adult. It’s also for video games!
I’m going to spend more time in Apex Legends this weekend. Last night a friend texted me to play this game with her by calling it “Ape Legs,” which I am hereby declaring to be the game’s official nickname, if it isn’t already.

What about you? What are you playing?
DISCUSSION
I’m still slogging my way through RDR2. I really like the game but I have two young children, ages 5 and 3. It’s not really a game I can play when they are around so I’m limited to 1-1.5 hours per night. I hate playing it this way. The pace and setting of the game is clearly intended for long play sessions so the player can become fully immersed but I do not have that luxury.
I have tried just riding around, hunting, camping, fishing, and exploring non-violently with the kids around. The non-violent part has varying levels of success. I don’t dare go on missions with the kids around.
