So @grandsumobreakdown.bsky.social, if Aonishiki hits 11-4 again this tournament, is that the first or second of the Ozeki run do you think?

Bought Crazy Taxi on ebay for my Dreamcast, and as I often do when I get an old game, I checked out @hg101.bsky.social to see if they did an episode on it
They did, and now I'm obsessed with Xerxes' idea of 'Guy Fieri's Crazy Taxi'. Take me to Flavourtown! Yah yah yah yah yah

Now I'm not an expert but if I'm reading it right these new rules regarding trans people in the UK is that trans women are still regarded as biological males, even if they've been through gender reassignment surgery? So, it IS possible for a woman to have a penis?? What a hateful clusterfuck this is

The 2nd is Huxley, and hits real deep:
"the surest way to work up a crusade in favour of some good cause is to promise people they will have a chance of maltreating someone. To be able to destroy with good conscience, to be able to behave badly and call your bad behaviour 'righteous indignation'"

I've discovered two new quotes about the world that I enjoy today. The first is Aristotle, and I feel it really touches the nerve of why when we're young, we think we can change the world:
"Youth is easily deceived, because it is quick to hope"

I feel like if Jake from @grandsumobreakdown.bsky.social has had roughly 60 one hour tutorials on banzuke construction, then he's got to be at least a banzuke sorcerer's apprentice by this point?

I don't think celebrities should have any undue influence on how politics works, but if Robert de Niro hated me as much as he hates Trump, I'd be changing my ways as soon as possible

I've just sat down through the Mario movie with my daughter, and I totally get all the criticisms about how it's just doing the most basic, boring, cookie cutter version of Mario, but she loves it so I totally don't know what to think

I wish American sports teams didn't share names. Like, do we need two Giants, or two Kings, or two Rangers, or two Cardinals?

The absolute best running bit in podcasting is the @hg101.bsky.social one where poor @kaly.bsky.social is convinced he's on the first part of the pod and he's on the second part. Makes me laugh every time

I know the general consensus is that we live in the worst time line, but we're about to watch the President of the United States criticise the Pope for being nasty to him, when the Pope has died. Trump is going to slag off the dead Pope. Mark my words

So Til that Henry Ford, great American industrialist, published a series of virulent antisemitic papers called 'The International Jew', of which old Adolf had a copy and was a big fan...

I despise the fact that I have all these games that thanks to the lack of backwards compatibility for them on Xbox One, I can't play anymore without getting a 360.

Finished listening to the @retronauts.bsky.social eps on Golden Axe, made me really want to fire up the Mega Drive and get back into it. I always sucked at it but maybe I'll be better now??

After listening to the @retronauts.bsky.social episode on Grapple Dog 2, I bought the first one on my Switch and it is excellent fun. Looking forward to finishing it and then trying the sequel. Thanks for the recommendation @stuartgipp.bsky.social

Oh my word @shoogles.bsky.social Lava Reef. Lava Reef has the best music in a Sonic game. There is a vocal OC Remix version of the song that I've linked below. The level is a masterpiece of storytelling, design and audio. Perfection
