Comfy Slippers

It's a cowspiracy!

  The bane of my Fallout 4 existence was those damn Brahmin.  Brahman are very large, hardy cows.. though of course regular cows are not mutated by radiation into the Fallout version with two heads.  Given that I've had ...

 
 
 

Initiation Station: Disposable Dudes

   He usually has no name and no voice, and he almost always has the personality of a loaf of white Wonder bread.  Sometimes race is optional, sometimes even gender is optional.  Hell, sometimes even species is opti...

 
 
 

What a Fantabulous Birthday!! Thank you Dtoid!

My new PS Vita arrived early, (last night) and just in time for my Birthday today and I"m quite excited! (about the Vita... not turning 54!)  To make my Birthday even better, it falls on a weekend, so no radiation treatments today...

 
 
 

Adventures in Elsaland... Options (NVGRish)

So... options.  After my last blog where I was told that I would need about 6 organs removed, I've had a PET scan, an MRI scan, 3 CT scans (one wasn't done right) and I've had biopsies, blood tests and been poked and prodded by lots ...

 
 
 

Adventures in ElsaLand.... NVGRish

While my mighty steed Swiffer and I have been touring the wonders of Cyrodil, apparently my cancer has been touring my body and exploring new sights and locations as well.  My biopsies came back and apparently my cancer has spread an...

 
 
 

Our "authentic self"

Much of the blogosphere speaks of our gender roles as being performative. We perform being male or female. We perform motherhood. We are "at work me" when in the workplace. We dress and act in ways that conform to societal expectations of...

I fear the addiction....

So I  got a PS4 a few months ago and took some time to play Dying Light while going back to Destiny occasionally for the Iron Banner events.  I finished Dying Light in about two weeks (everything possible in the single playe...

 
 
 

50 Shades of Gaming

Sooo... it's been a long time since I've blogged, but I've been involved in a time consuming legal case that goes before the courts again in December and have also had several surgeries this year because my "in situ" cancer decided to be...

 
 
 

So, you want to be my friend...

So... if you met me at a party would you walk up and hand me a picture of lesbian porn?� I don't really care if you're female, or if you're gay, but you might want to introduce yourself first and say "hi", before giving me the lesbian por...

 
 
 

10 reasons why Elsa is always right...

1.� If you're a male, you're wrong.� One thing I've learned from gaming media in recent years is that being a woman makes me always right.� Apparently I lack "privilege" even though I'm a middle class white woman with a nice house, a lo...

 
 
 

The invisibility of the older woman...

I'm currently 51 and frankly, when I hit 50... shit happened.  I stopped dying my hair only to find out that I no longer had dark brown hair, but instead when the sun hits my locks, you could be blinded from the silver reflectio...

 
 
 

Feminist Frequency and Relevance...

So, Anita Sarkeesian has completed her "Damsel in Distress" trilogy. �In the first video, she introduced the trope and gave some historical background to it.� She spoke of how the male rescuer was the subject and the woman was object and ...

 
 
 

Killing Death

We're currently going through a family crisis. �My father-in-law is 80 and has had a brain�hemorrhage. �My husband immediately flew out to be with his father and after 10 days, he's finally back home now. It's been several weeks of tiny s...

 
 
 

No means no... but sometimes it has to be said out loud.

This started as a response to Glowbear's excellent blog recapping some recent events at E3, but it grew far too long, and I've never been concise... so I'll put my huge ramble here in my own blog, but please read her blog FIRST (and comment...

 
 
 

It's all about who you're sleeping with...

original Possible spoilers for the Mass Effect trilogy ahead... proceed at your own risk! I've mentioned it before, but I seem to have the worst luck when it comes to video game romances. �I dumped Anomen the wimp in Baldur's Gate 2. In...

 
 
 

More questions than answers...

As with many console launches in the past, this year I've come away with more questions than answers. �I'm usually a Sony fangirl, but for the next generation of game consoles, I'm still undecided between the Xbox One and the PS4 (PC gami...

 
 
 

Fun Facts about Females

Meet Jane. �She owns a smartphone or tablet. �The install base on Android and iOS devices alone is larger than all the current gen consoles combined. �According to Flurry (an app analytics company) there are also about 26 million unique u...

 
 
 

The sound of many hands fapping...

... is now silenced. Apparently the fap button has been replaced by a generic "like" button and previous fap records have all disappeared. I find I rather miss seeing the fap numbers on some of my previous blogs as the faps often outnumbe...

 
 
 

Deal with it.

Yup, the next Xbox might not be for you. The rumours of an "always on" internet connected next-generation Xbox aren't particularly new, though recent leaks and the distinct lack of any outright denial seem to further confirm these earlie...

 
 
 

I think I'm going to be defiant!

I got to level 157 or so in Defiance during the beta week... so apparently I liked the game. It releases today on my Birthday, April 2nd, and there's a pretty decent chance I'll be getting the game...because Birthday monies from my Mom f...

 
 
 

Just call me Farmer Elsa!

I never did play Demon Souls... even though I normally love WRPG styled games. I heard it was difficult, as in brutally difficult and when I want to have my ass kicked, I generally load up an online multiplayer FPS game like MAG, or Battle...

 
 
 

Me and my digital dick...

I've been a gamer since I was a nameless, genderless, adventurer in games like Zork and Myst. �I then moved on to the Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter Nights, Icewind Dales series of games and I always had the option to play as a female. �I did...

 
 
 

Damsel in Distress....

I know that Anita Sarkeesian's "Damsel in Distress" initial video of her examination of Tropes vs Women in Video games is due to drop tomorrow, so I wanted to get some of my thoughts out previous to viewing her video. I sincerely hope th...

 
 
 

Gaming Porn for Women

Last year for Valentine's Day my husband got me a funny little book called "Porn for Women" and included really nice pictures of guys saying things like "God, that's SO interesting... tell me more" or "Oh look! The NFL playoffs are today. ...

 
 
 

Competition, video games and real life...

I'm not a competitive person. I tend to prefer multiplayer shooter games that are based on team tactics and allow for helping out team members with the ability to play medic or engineer or other non-shooty aspects to the game. I love di...

 
 
 

Surprise!

So I finally (after trying out a LOT of demos) found a Kinect game I actually like. Someone on another blog indicated that the game Rhythm Party was similar to the old Eyetoy Groove game... so I looked up the demo and gave it a try! I l...

 
 
 

The Halo 4 sexist banning threat has no balls.

First off, for those that don't know - I am an old, white female. My gender has occasionally been questioned, but I can describe menstrual cramps in detail, and I can also now give a crash course in early menopause... and the threats of ...

 
 
 

Safe gaming... and leg condoms!

I can't help feeling a bit maternal about those on my buddy list.. I care about you! I also can't help but notice that some of you are playing Borderlands 2 - all the time, - probably too much. I wonder if you're practicing safe gaming...

 
 

About Elsaone of us since 2:27 PM on 01.25.2009

I'm 55 years old. I'm female, a cancer survivor, happily married, and retired from the work force... and I spend way too much time gaming. I enjoy long walks on the beach, with a gun, sometimes with my husband - shooting n00bs.
I not only like to shoot people, I also enjoy cooking and crafting. Mostly I make my own armor in games like Skyrim and cook my own potions after a busy day of hacking and slashing my way through various critters, guards and bandits in most any WRPG game.

If you're into a threesome or foursome with a mature couple, then come join us - only be sure to bring a med kit. We're old, sometimes we fall down and can't get back up without some help!
