Hello fellow blue-sky-ers! I am Str8JaktJim (but we're friends here you can call me Jim). I am an inconsistent content creator from Perth, Western Australia.
I love Star Wars, indie games, Zelda, and Mario (and a lot of things Nintendo).
Keen to make new friends and gain a heap of new mutuals ☺️

Been uploading a lot of my older writing to my personal website (one of the outlets I used to write for doesn't exist anymore and I want my work still out there) and came across this article I wrote about the Super Mario Bros rap.
It's not the one you're thinking about.

Today's win: dropped into the shops on the way home and found not one, not two, but THREE packets of Timtams on clearence for $1 each. Only 2 weeks the wrong side of their best before as well.

I can tell I'm starting to get a bit more traction in the content creator space because I've had a few emote artists follow me on Instagram.

Everytime I see a headline like this I not-so-quietly whisper "They don't want to work for you"

Do not like, and it sounds like a lot of fans don't like this either. Watching the latest episode of Raw and hearing chats of "We want Truth"

So I had an interesting thought today. This year was the first time since John Howard that Australia has elected the same Prime Minister twice.
Howard was elected to his fourth term in October 2009. Since then we've had single election winning PMs until Albanese just recently.

I'm not a huge fan of the 1 year time jumps every 3 episodes of Andor, but getting 3 episodes every week is pretty mint.
Although that does mean this this week is the last set of 3 episodes 😢

My favourite thing when watching people play Super Mario Maker 2 troll levels is "There is no way I need to do the thing" only to walk passed the thing and realise "I need to do the thing"

Couple of thoughts about Mario Kart World Direct (other than it looks amazing)
-Two words. Yoshi. Burgers.
-I can play as a cow but not Charging Chuck. Let me play as Chuck you cowards!
-Imma drive that Penguin off the highest peak I can find
- I'm getting Toad's Turnpike PTSD with all this traffic

If any party in Australia ran on a ticket of Universal Basic Income they would get my vote in a heartbeat.
The results from Germany's big 3-year UBI experiment are out!
122 people got €1200/mo for 3 years. All were age 21-40 and employed with incomes between €1100/mo to €2600/mo
They were happier, healthier, saved more, gave more, enjoyed more social time, and DID NOT WORK LESS than the control group.

I'm coaching for the first time (junior field hockey) and I'm nervous as hell about it, especially when a parent emailed me for feedback on why their child was selected for the 2nd team.
To say this response has boosted my confidence is an understatement.

Hey @nintendousa.bsky.social this is a dick move. If I'm buying a physical game cart, the game better damn well be on the cart.

There was so much good stuff in that Nintendo Direct for the Switch 2! But all I could think was that I need to start a GoFundMe to buy this man a jacket that fits.
Did he just forget he had to film this and borrow one of his staff's jackets that was 3 sizes too big for him?
