I hop on socials to look up and talk about comic books (X-Men!), video games (the Xeno series!), anime (Gundam!), Major League Baseball (Go Yankees!), college football (Go Dawgs!), The Muppets or whatever other topic(s) tickles my fancy!
Pinned
As my inaugural post, I figure I'll list out the stuff I like/talk about:
- X-Men
- The Xeno series (Xenogears, Xenosaga and Xenoblade)
- Gundam (mostly Universal Century)
- Virtua Fighter
- Donkey Kong
- Godzilla
- Major League Baseball
- College football
- Misc.

This is still a really good fighting game. If you have an XBox (OG, One or Series), I recommend picking it up.
24 years ago today, Dead or Alive 3 was originally released on the Xbox in NA as one of the system's launch titles. It was developed by Team Ninja and published by Tecmo.

This is a statement I received from a Epstein survivor who is a Jane Doe.

Share it widely.

This is cool. COURIER has created a searchable database with all 20,000 of the files just released from Epstein’s estate.

Trump's name appears in them more than anyone else, in 1,628 documents.

It was this time last year that I was wholly distracted from pressing project deadlines by making this ragtag troupe. Currently resisting the pull to add new recruites...

wow, washington post.

lol that’s the actual headline: comma, epstein.

Trump faces heat from MAGA base on ‘America First’ agenda, Epstein
MAGA leaders erupted over the president’s assertion that the U.S. needs foreign workers. That rift and others have raised GOP concerns about enthusiasm ahead of the midterms.

#VFTIPS Please RT!

Offensive Move (2 or 8, then P+K+G) gives you side advantage without needing an evade, but keep in mind it doesn't count as an Evade so it doesn't avoid anything! Many characters also have moves that turn someone 90 degrees if they hit! (3/4)

With the right sequence you can also get behind someone! The frame bonus is the same, defensive options are delayed by 5 frames, and back throws are inescapable! These tips are just a sample, there's even more to VF's side/back mechanics! (4/4)

If you evade a strike and attack immediately, it's a Side attack! Your attack gets a frame bonus of +2/+3/+6 frames based on its normal damage. This can give huge advantage if they guard, or can make unsafe launchers safe! (1/4)

In addition to frame bonuses, defensive options are delayed from the side. It takes 3 extra frames to guard or evade (and some other things) while side-turned. Akira's 2_46P (double-palm) can't be defended after his 3P+K hits on side! (2/4)

Kind of crazy that evidence is mounting that the world is run by a group of rapists, pedophiles, and men convinced of women’s inmate natural inferiority, and the pundit class is trying to convince us that the real social crisis is that men are victimized and lonely because women have too many jobs.
You just know that “Did Women Ruin the Workplace?” bit would have done NUMBERS in this little clique
Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

#ResidentEvil: Village is a fairytale.

What does that mean for its horror? What does that mean for its place in the series?

Enter my favorite Tekken character.
On this day 2 years ago, it was announced during the EVO 2023 Tekken 8 Showcase that "Purple Lightning" Reina was joining Tekken 8 as the final new playable character for the game's launch roster. Reina's trailer can be watched below.

One of the best KoFs! I have this version, too.

Shame it was never ported to anything else: this game's too good to be left in the past.
18 years ago today, The King of Fighters XI was released on the PlayStation 2 in NA. It was developed by G1M2 and published by SNK Playmore.

It all would have been much easier if, as would have happened if we were remotely a serious country, it all ended with the Access Hollywood interview.
