For my 31st birthday I saw a revival screening of RAN at Cine in Athens, GA and was ecstatic the whole time, despite the group of teens sitting behind me constantly laughing at the make-up and blood effects.

There are two types of people I've interacted with in the fighting game community so far: either extremely nice and helpful, or extremely annoying dense little shits climbing over each other like crabs in a bucket. No in-between.

Dream: stranded at Barnes & Noble. Without my bag or cellphone, left at the high school after caught in late night protest march. Vile, dark, and raining outside. Growing more desperate, stiff, and hungry until one leg drawn up to chest paralyzed. Escalators broken. Hobbling around, no one helping.

Maybe Don’t Talk to the New York Times About Zohran Mamdani
It’s remarkable, the people you’ll hear from. Teach for even a little while at an expensive institution—the term they tend to prefer is “elite”—and odds are that eventually someone who was a studen…

A number of the Chinese international students stayed here after graduating, some even starting families. I always wonder how they are now, if they're safe or scared. Apparently most of them were the wealthy children of people in gov't. Don't know if that changes anything.

Dreamed late night party at my parents' house. Sitting on the floor and couch around the coffee table downstairs with guests from grad school. Dad extremely drunk and embarrassing. Later as guests leave discover my Chinese friend has been there the whole time. She hugs me. Woke up w deep loneliness.

When I see posts like this I tell myself it's a bot, not a real person. It doesn't matter if it's actually is a bot or if it's actually a real person, I know people like this actually exist and somehow live and breathe every day, but it's better for my mental health at this point. It's a bot.

I can now say from personal experience that if you have a brain that enjoys sensory and tactile exercises and you play fighting games you should do what you can to get an arcade stick. Even if you're not playing well it's so satisfying to use.
