I am very sorry to tell you, but sir, I think you have Schizophrenia

Yep. That is far from the strangest thing you'll see, too.

Hah, I'd forgotten about that. Okay... it was a bit creepy though as it was 11pm and the room was quite dark and suddenly that popped up. The creepy part was it wasn't there before I read the magazine. I was all O.o

Suddenly I am filled with equal parts dread and anticipation.

Gassy walkers, spirals and Remina? Sign me in.

EDIT:

You also presumably have power...

Actually... I usually buy it in boxes of a dozen bricks, and they last through the week unrefrigerated, the expiration date is usually within 16 days or so. I only opened two bricks in a bad state since I live here (8+ yrs). It isn't even refrigerated at the market, where (in all of them) there's always an entire section full of milk like this. Bottles are more expensive and last less.

The taste is pretty much the same so I think it's all about the packaging.

Yea, milk that's been sterilized and packaged in aseptic containers can last a long time. Several months. They can do the same with juices and such.

You don't see it a whole lot in the US, but it's starting to catch on. The first time I saw it was while helping a local church with food packages for people in need - folks had donated it as part of the food drive. The expiration date was like 3 months ahead, and it didn't require refrigeration until it was opened.

It's not about the packaging, it's about the pasteurization process. Most milk is just pasteurized, whereas the boxed high-longevity stuff is treated as a much higher temperature, which affects the protein structure of the milk (you can't heat milk up that much without it curdling a bit). From my experience, the latter kind tastes pretty weird by comparison, which is one reason why they don't use it more often.

At any rate, in the US most people don't buy ultra-high-temperature pasteurized milk.

So I just updated to the lasted windows version, and I noticed that night didn't fall. I was reading in a house from 7:00PM until 11:23 pm when a zombie brute came through a window and killed me. There was no loss of visibility. Can anyone confirm this?

[Whales]

There were some weird issues with light levels, I've ironed them out.  We'll see a new release in the next day or two.

umm.. I hope it's about Tomie. Anything else drawn by Junji Ito is just so random and extra creepy.
At least Tomie got a constant theme of a girl reviving / multiplying over and over again.
Right?

... Right?

It's not Tomie; while cool, it doesn't translate well into a post-apoc roguelike, you know?

Weird and creepy is what I'm going for, here!

Oh man oh man

I am now way more excited than I was previously.
