Take a breath and pray for me

B logsong: none today

actually scratch that, I’ve been autistically listening to God Takes Away Everything sooooo often lately, so let’s go with that.

It’s just soooooooo good man.

I’m about halfway done listening to The Architect and Eviscerate. Maybe by the end of the year I’ll have listened to both albums.

heyhey I hope you’re well.

vidya?

Haven’t touched Routine again yet ;_; ima scawed.

I have to wait until a livestream is on so I can have company 🫣

I did start uhhh… Layers of Fear, though. It’s kinda like a walk in the park in comparison.

There’s no threat, it’s just walking room to room and getting jumpscared. They’re mostly not obnoxious jumpscares. It’s still pretty spooky, though. But there was never even a uh… I never even had the thought of Alt+F4ing out. Never a “nope” moment.

The robots in Routine have me fucking paralyzed in fear. I am SCARED of them. Their presence is so powerful; the noise they make as they stomp around, the way they LOOK is like a fucking nightmare—lemme find a pic…

okay, you know what even makes them worse, too? The way you have to point your hacker tool at them…

…

okay we’re down here now? Look at this fucking guy. Excuse my language.

THAT’S SCARY!!

Now, it’s confirmed that you DO run faster than them—I really don’t even know if they run or they just power-walk. But they’re so intimidating I can’t even run from them—at least I haven’t been able to yet. The first one showing up at all made me quit immediately. Another one just got too close when I was in a corner, I … I couldn’t do it...

Idk the last time I’ve experienced this. The Xenomorph finding you in Alien: Isolation is more annoying than it’s scary. It runs faster than you and it’s a 1-hit kill. When it notices you, unless you’ve got a flamethrower to scare it away, you basically have to sigh and accept the tail.

Enemies in uh… Outlast? I don’t remember any of them being 1-hit kills. Maybe the muscular guy was? But you also run faster than all of them, too.

Now uh… Visage? You do run faster than the ghosts, but the house’s tight spaces are working against you and it’s instant death if they catch you. There’s not a lot of room and iirc, they can move through walls. They’re scarier than these robots.

(Edit: yes, the robots do 1-hit you if they catch you)

But I heard in the second half of the game… there’s an enemy that’s even scarier and “more dangerous”. I don’t know what that means. I assume he’s faster. God forbid, maybe he can crawl, too. These robots can’t crawl. A lot of people, though, are just as frustrated as scared by the second half, so I’m not *at all* looking forward to it.

DEAD ASK

I might stop playing Dead Space lol.

I’m having fun with it, but I was reminded about all of the fucking gross death scenes. And I actually ha—even though I’m great at the game and never die, even the fact that they’re in the game kinda bothers me. You know what I mean? The spirit of the game is uh… uglier than I’d like.

You know what happens when you “die” in Pragmata? Diana actually saves you and brings you back to your Shelter and offers some advice about doing better next time against whatever got you.

I’m sorry I’m gonna be a chud for a sec, but actually what reminded me about Dead Space’s death scenes was some gay(literal) retard(literal) on X complaining that female death scenes in video games are uniquely brutal in ways men’s are not.

I know you know that’s so retarded it’s not even worth addressing. But I will anyway.

I thought about it, and there are some really brutal deaths for like… Lara Croft in the reboots. Remember how she gets IMPALED BY A TREE BRANCH THROUGH THE NECK if you mess up a QTE? That’s sick.

...it’s also way less sick than *anything* that happens to Issac Clarke in Dead Space. Way less. But yeah, sometimes women get it bad. Almost as bad as men do. And when they do get it bad, we’re all a lot more offended by it because their lives matter more to us. So much more, that some of us, the gayer and more retarded, or just feminists, will literally pretend that men don’t die brutally in video games.

I can’t even remember any examples for women beside Lara Croft… something in The Last Of Us? Where Joel can also be brutally killed by enemies? Where, in the second game, he gets his head caved in with a golf club?

Neil Druckmann is such a hack lol.

Getting off topic, let’s just move on.

God I love women.

Fight for your life?

Wanna go over some of the fights with me? WAIT, I PROMISE I’LL JUST DO IT QUICKLY:

1- Lopes gets an AMAZING KO after getting pieced up in r1! He was losing the fight, having trouble touching Garcia. But Garcia made the mistake of brawling with him and got got. Don’t brawl with Diego.
+forgot to thank Christ in post-fight interview, but is devout Christian😄

2- Bo Nickal gets a … I barely even remember this lol, but he got the KO in the first round and it was beautiful. Oh, he caught him off guard with a front kick I think, and then a nasty left was the beginning of the end for Daukaus.
+Christ thanked in post-fight interview & Bible verses spoken😄

3- Ruffy ritualistically humiliates Chandler over the course of 4 and a half minutes, that I actually feel bad for Chandler. It was a nightmare. MMAGuru says he moves like prime McGregor. That was a bit before my time, so idk, but if that means “he looks supernaturally talented”, then yeah. It was just complete domination and worthy of Ruffy being the biggest favorite of the card.
+Christ thanked in post-fight interview & Bible verses spoken😄

4- Josh Hokit DISMANTLED Derrick Lewis. This was my fight of the night, just because of how INTELLIGENTLY Hokit fought. Derrick Lewis is a man who’s dangerous as long as he’s conscious. It doesn’t matter how badly you have him rocked, he can still knock you out. Hokit fought a very defensively responsible fight, clobbering Lewis w/ his wrestling in the first, and then slowly just piecing him up until Lewis fell in the second. It was like cutting a tree down.
+Christ thanked in post-fight interview😄

5- Sean O’Malley won. Whatever.
+shouted out “manifestation”. Presumably an atheist + offered his wife to other men🥱 lost to Yan + not a superstar no matter how forced

6- ...Ciryl Gane won. The worst thing to ever happen. Pereira got caught. Too stiff, too much head-hunting, let himself get jabbed up. At the last second of of r1, Pereira caught him and that might have been the beginning of the end, but we’ll never know. The bell rang. Then in r2 he knocked Alex “I let myself get hit as I try to find a knockout shot” Pereira down.

He then elbowed him to the back of the head a gorillion times. For this cope reason, I am not counting this against my record.
+forgot to thank Christ in post-fight interview, but is Catholic!!😄 ...still a cheater who lost to Volkov though😒

7- the biggest upset in memory, even bigger than Strickland beating Khamzat.

Justin Gaethje won via superhuman toughness + the fact that he hits like a freight train

“What was the hardest punch you ever took?” Fighters always say Justin.

Back when Max Holloway beat the everloving shit out of Justin for 25 minutes, it was only at the LITERAL LAST SECOND that Justin finally went unconscious. Like Derrick Lewis, as long as he’s conscious, he is dangerous.

Justin also does not show damage. He did outstrike Ilia in r1, but Ilia’s always slow to start. Ilia did land some shots that just KO’d three legends in a row. But Justin ate them like tic-tacs. Superhuman toughness.

In r2 Justin survived liver shots that would have dropped a gorilla. I have no idea how gorillas take liver shots actually, but I’m not exaggerating when I say 999 out of 1000 men would have crumbled to the fucking ground, whereas Justin was just badly hurt but managed to stay alive. He did fall and ended the round with Ilia on top of him, but he survived the round.

He recovered and the fight just went on as it had been going.

Ilia could not recover from the damage Justin inflicted on him. His face was torn to shreds, he couldn’t see out of one eye, and a knee at the end of r4 to his own liver might have been enough to make him unable to get up from the stool.

Justin Gaethje finally wins the undisputed championship.

I’m not counting this against my record, because any normal human would have died to those liver shots.
+Christ thanked in post-fight interview😄

uhhhh… very crazy card.

Mostly as-predicted. I hated Alex losing and not getting the triple-championship, and I really hated Topuria losing, and looking so badly bloodied up.

But I do love Justin and I’m happy for him. Hopefully Topuria can regain his momentum.

That’s all.

So I went 7/7 on predictions :’)
