It's easy to be a saint in paradise... out there there are no saints- just people. Angry, scared determined people who are going to do whatever it takes to survive, whether it meets federation approval or not!

Been catching up on the new Ultimate Marvel and Absolute DC comics and it's really interesting seeing how different they are tonally but at their core is the idea that even with a god like entity crafting the world to make heroes impossible good will still rise to stand against evil.

Wild how it's always "you know wrestling is fake right?" until Mox breaks out a fish tank then suddenly it's "too violent" and "inappropriate for children". I showed it to my 5 year old niece and asked her if she thought she should drown someone in a fish tank. She said no.

Dawg, that new fire emblem looks dope. Looks like a really fresh set of new characters to follow, the colosseum setting has a ton of potential and it's a follow up to Three Houses so we might finally get a conclusion to the actual plot of that game? Hell yeah. Plus adult Sothis looks sick AF.

Seeing people's reaction to silksong is making me remember that I'm actually halfway good at video games, I just spend so much time looking at speedruns and challenge runs that I constantly FEEL bad at video games. As an aside, I actually feel like the angled jump attack is incredibly satisfying.

Hey, to whoever the dumbass is who shot Charlie Kirk, good job literally handing the right a gift wrapped martyr for them to do whatever they want with and for making sure that kirks STUPID STUPID ideas will now be immortalized. Shits about to get so much worse.

Team Cherry has less than 24 hours to postpone Silksong again. I think it might actually happen guys. About to hang up the clown wig and makeup for good!

There is no line in fiction that has left me feeling humbled in awe and covered in goosebumps than when this book drops "They are here! On our shores! The Malazans are on our shores!" I literally squealed out loud.

Waking up from my Odin sleep to re-engage with Star Wars discourse again like the fool I am. Just saw a tiktok where someone says Star Wars isn't science fiction, is fantasy set in space, and all the comments were outraged. This raises two thoughts in my head.

Looking at the ending discourse around Clair Obscur is making me realize just how many people out there, of actually faced with the choice, would say "Actually, I'm quite happy here in Omelas. I believe I'll stay here with my friends where we're happy."

Alright, gonna start doing a thing I'm calling PPV Mondays. Going back to watch at least one PPV straight through the attitude era every Monday and posting my thoughts on here starting with WrestleMania XII. Wasn't really allowed to watch at that point in history and am super excited to learn.

So sick and tired and passed off by the turn based game discourse that crops up every time one goes mainstream. Clair Obscure is a generationally great game, and its turn based combat is absolutley freaking brilliant, but that doesn't mean it's "revitalizing a dead genre" or "setting a new standard"

it drives me insane how there will be a turn-based RPG made by a non-japanese team that's clearly inspired by JRPGs and then it will get reviews like "i know what you're thinking: a turn-based rpg? but don't worry, this isn't SHITTY and STUPID like those ANNOYING JRPGs. this one's GOOD". shut up

So I just watched Blackcoats Daughter and between that and Longlegs, Osgood Perkins seems to be leaning into a concept of the world where demons exist but there is no God or good force. That's fine, you do you, but my fantasy writer brain now has many deep cosmological questions that demand answers.

I'm watching Lost Highway for the first time, and I'm just going to come out and say it. This mysterious stranger guy? I don't think i like him all that much. He seems creepy and unpleasant. Probably a hot take but I need to speak my truth.

Man, it was nice visiting the countryside and soaking in the sites, but it's good to be back in the city. This is my home. It's where I belong. These streets will eat you alive, but their my strets damn it. (Me, entering kamurocho after the opening of Yakuza 3 taking place in okinawa)

Watching They Live and I love the fact that the INSTANT Roddy Piper puts the glasses on he's like "yeah, this tracks" and immediately escalates to gun violence. There's no denial period, no attempts to reason with the enemy, just DEATH to the OPPRESSORS! Kick ass and chew bubblegum indeed.

So I'm playing through Yakuza 2 and I just adore how most of this world functions on a normal powers calendar, where if someone gets jumped by 4 or 5 guys, that's a serious threat, they might not make it out, but then Kiryu and Majima can just solo armies. Its beautiful.

So I'm watching the movie Versus, and the characters known as Yakuza Leader with a Butterfly Knife might is giving one of my favorite performances of all time. Pure unadulterated Kino.
