Hey friend, I hope you're well.
I'm-- a little out of it. But that's normal. I'm gonna yap at you about the following things today: Death Island, Mil-Sim Story, Zelda 2, aaand... Fate, probably. Aaand. I guess my own stuff.kkkkkkkkkkkkkk
I was right, his lawyer's *son* is representing him now. Lawyer Dad though? They don't know where he is. "Early on" when people were getting the Cell Therapy(C.T.) they'd just start traveling all over the world and kinda disappear. Son's not worried, he'll see his dad again "one day" he thinks. Uhhhhh-- our Bro's estate is basically gone since his patent was broken and his company went to the man-- oh--
Uhhh... we learn our Bro's in for murdering his business partner, presumably for trying to push him out of the company. There's that.
And he's stolen a knife now for some reason, idk what he's planning on doing. Oh, also LIFE IN PRISON, for immortal people is only 500 years now, so that's not so bad, right? He says to his lawyer that he'll be out very soon though. Idk what he means by that.
Uhhhh... we learn that black people no-longer murder white people or Asians: racial tensions have been replaced by SEXUAL TENSION, in a different sense: WOMEN are completely CHIMPING OUT now, because they've basically lost their motherly instinct, their desire to reproduce. They can just be young forever with the C.T., and pregnancy actually endangers their immortality, so why would they want to do it? They're Living Their Best Lives #childfree, foreeeeeeeeeeeeverrrr yaaaasss
So women are uh, just going insane. They're ambushing little boys and old men and idk-- beating them, raping them, killing them? They're doing GOD knows what to the male-feminist eunuchs that *we* all know and love ("Some men have gone over to them-- You know what they get.") Use your imagination.
And while this is going on, uh, also there's still just perfectly-normal male/female interaction lmao like the female prison guard telling Bro all of this is like "I'm married and my husband and I get along", it's just that there's these GANGS of violent women being menaces, presumably because they've got nothing to do. Literally roving bands of femcels.
Anyway... I left off where Bro's moved out of the hospital, and a female inmate asks if he wants to bunk with her-- because not only can you choose your own cellmates in the future, you can live with a hot girlprisoner, too. Listen to this shit:
"How about me?"
He stared at her.
"I'm not too bad, am I? We don't have many cosmetics in here, so you may smell a little sweat from time to time, but I do what I can, and I shave under my arms. Naturally, if you don't want to..."
>Life in prison with a girl and her smooth sweaty armpits
I guess the future's not so bad after all. Oh but-- there's like... a gigantic wreck of a ship floating in the sky. Idk what's up with that yet.
That's all for now.
Our Waifubro's story about girls playing a VR shooter is wholesome and cute and has tons of great lines, but I got too far behind so I'm RESTARTING IT so it can be fresher in my dumb brain. I'll just kinda be reading it to myself and commenting a bit here. Hey, YOU read it along with me, okay? So chapta ONE, The First Week of Uni introduces us to Emi, and I'm gonna reeeead it and I'll brb... omg Chiara. Is Chiara bestgirl? I'm really bad at picking bestgirls, I've never been able to pick waifus because I like every girl in everything. But Emi's like a TOMBOY isn't she? Track and field? You know Emi's TONED. Okay I'm going to stop sexualizing them now and read this chapter, brb...
"She kind of feels like an idiot for trying to take down notes from the power point." Chiara is humanity.
MAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIII
"a short blonde girl with messy hair. She's napping on the floor of the dorm room, engineering books laying close by along with her used budget laptop which is connected to a headset device. Her t-shirt is far too oversized for her stature and she wears jogging pants despite having no athletic aspirations whatsoever"
SLEEPY, NERDY, POOR. OVERSIZED CLOTHES. Mai is everything good. Of course immediately following this is the introduction of Hikari
TOO OFTEN spoiled rich girls are written BORING, with "rich" being the sum of their character as a sort of uh, idk, anti-rich commentary BUT NOT HERE, Hikari and Mai have a very nice relationship, a good back-and-forth between them that makes them both more likeable. As if Mai needed to be any more likeable.
"you disgusting little redneck" Hikarmi mutters --LOVE Itlmao. They have good banter. they're SO GOOD. it's just *good* Immediately asking for help right afterwards.
Uhhh--kk let's see... Chiara.... Chiara's a good friend for Emi. Good friends are a blessing in life, and EMI's a good friend, too.
I'm tired of people PRETENDING that good characters aren't goodlmao Anyway, I have finished chapter 1, I enjoyed it as much as I did the first time.
"Bring your laptop and your headset to my dorm room. There's a fairly new game I want to try."
>it's
I got to the final palace of Zelda 2, but I'm not playing anymore, at least for now, I need a break. It's bad. I'm not going to pretend that Zelda 2 is a good game to appease the nostalgia of GenXers. It's a bad game. It's the exact kind of "overwhelm the player with shit hitting him from all sides" SLOP that early gaming was infamous for. Okay? If I want to play a GOOD bullet-hell, I'll play Touhou. You know what I played right after Zelda 2? Faxanadu, which came out just liike 9 months later, and is a better game in every way. It's a better adventure, with a better world, better story, equipment to buy, potions, and spells, and it's NOT BULLSHIT-DIFFICULT. I don't want to hear, ever, "git gud" about bad games. Git Gud is a philosophy for fair games, not BULLSHIT ones. You know as far as I can tell only 1 person has ever beaten Zelda 2 without being hit? The game's almost 40 fucking years old. You can't count how many people have beaten Dark Souls without getting hit and some have even beaten THE ENTIRE FROMSOFT LIBRARY *ALL IN ONE SITTING*, what, 10+ hours? without getting hit. There's 1 man who's recorded himself beating Zelda 2 without being hit, and it took him over a year of strategizing and practice to do it. And of course that was never intended, there's *zero* chance the developers ever fucking did that. We shouldn't have to live like this.
Zelda 2's enemies aren't fun to fight, they're mostly the worst annoyances. I'm not going to say I HATE the game and that it has NO good qualities, because there's stuff I do really like about it. But it is just sooooooooooo UNFUN I CAN'T PRETEND IT'S SOMETHING THAT IT'S NOT. It's not REVOLUTIONARY, Dragon Quest came out first and had a better open world. And I don't know anything about side-scrollers, but SURELY there's better side-scrolling games than Zelda 2 because if that's not the case, the genre is just *disgusting*. DISGUSTING.
Anyway, I'll finish it *eventually*, but I needed a break. And I got one, because Faxanadu was freakin *delightful*, Falcom's been making gaming kino since before I was born
Was there anythingg else I wanted to... Fate? Ehhhhhh... I finished the Prologue, it was fun, I got Jeanne d'Arc and immediately leveled her up to 60 lmao and uhthat's my story.
no more yapping imsorry. im really just a zombie brain rn, I'm totally and completely and utterly out of it, it's not good-- i was going going to write something... uh... okay after i post this, i'll OPEN A TAB to get read to edit Spooks in Space, and i'll post it later and just do live-editing that (You) will be able to see. ok? I'll ttyl, pls take care of yourself, and have a relaxing day. God bless friend
Hey friend, I hope you're feeling okay.
Iiiiiiii-- I beat
I liked it. Not too many complaints. Death Mountain wasn't really very hard, but it was kinda TOO BIG. A bunch of rooms to make a skull, and it's just Zzzzzzzz. When I thought I'd found all of the rooms, it turns out I'd missed BOTH treasures in the dungeon-- the Red Ring and the Silver Arrow. Once I went back and got them, Ganon was reeeeeally easy. Dead in probably under a minute, only doing 3 hearts of damage to me. EZPZ. The hardest level was probably... 6. Wizzrobes are fucking bullshit and I hate them. Overallllll... good game I guess. There's at least 3 Heart Containers that are in pretty *stupid* places you have to bomb that you normally never would think to unless you're just bombing everything. This really was back in the "You Need a Guide" days, *but* even though I did use one to find those Heart Containers, I didn't need one for the rest of the game, exceeept-- I couldn't find the entrance to Death Mountain like a schmuck. But overall it's not THAT cryptic of a game. I like that you can buuuuuuy stuff, I'm a big fan of shops in games. Aaaand-- it's neato that there's Fairy Fountains around, some of the RIDDLES and PUZZLES are pretty nice actually, like you're told "There's a secret where fairies don't live" and you suddenly realize you've seen a fairy fountain that has no fairy. It'sssss. Neato. Neato game, glad to have finally played through it. I DID use save states like a madman just to save myself a ton of time, but it's really not a very difficult game. Except the Wizzrobes, they're FUCKING BULLSHIT THIS GAME SUCKS
Some cryptic bullshit, like a girl loses her mirror, and to find it you have to search under a table in another house. But it's--so faaaaaar--not too confusing. But fucking maan, is it brutal. If you lose all 3 lives, you die, nbd, but you LOSE ALL OF YOUR EXPERIENCE toward your next level. That's *manageable*, but it fucking sucks. It's practically a horror game with how badly everything hurts you. And of course this is like the one Zelda game where you can't buy any freaking potions. Isn't that wild? In Zelda 1 you can buy a potion you can use twice. Now you just can't. You do get a heal spell, which is of course very useful, but it sucks having to balance it with shiiiiield spell, which you *have* to use a lot if you don't want DAIRAS to batter your bussy. And then once you've used up a bunch of MP on your shields, and you're *still* about to die anyway because the enemies are relentless, then you don't have enough to cast Life on yourself :') REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
The game's ... it's something. I'll try to finish it, because there is something here despite everything I don't like. Like I just got the HAMMER so now I can open up the overworld a lot, and that's COOL, man. Anyway... uhhhh... Istarted reading
It's about a prisoner, life sentence, who works at a prison hospital, and who gets cryogenically frozen because he has stomach cancer. The way that it's described is like sad and uncomfortable and personally hits hard. He's like writing about it, and how it felt better when his girlfriend was rubbing it, and now it hurts again, he thinks he's getting an ulcer. I've had an ulcer and it basically ruined my fucking life, and thank God it was *just* an ulcer for me-- anyway, because of the cancer and because he can afford it, he's allowed to be frozen. He wakes up 60 years in the future, they've removed the cancer from him, and everyone basically has eternal youth now from the very cell therapy they cured him with-- the only way to die now is violence/accidents.
Soooo a prisoner-therapist is talking with him, and bring him a Bible, lets him read his file-- these books use a technology he developed, a sort of AI that lives in the cover and can discuss the contents of whatever book/documents/etc. it's in with you.
The name of the story comes from... a fishbowl that was in the visitor's hut his gf and him would be allowed to have conjugal visits in.
real quick- did you know basically NO states allow conjugal visits anymore? Our country is kind of a fucking nightmare hellscape.
Anyway, this fishbowl, it had a mountain in it that rose out of the water and even the bowl itself because it was meant for larger aquariums--and it was just barren, so he thought of it as Death Island, which is what he also refers to the... ...the uh... the highest floor of the hospital as, where the "uncurables" are. It's where he was when he had cancer, but now he's been moved somewhere else.
NOW THEN, something strange is going on, because he believes his room is facing the West, but he can't see the Sun. BUT we don't know what's going on yet, and he's just gotten some visitors where I left off-- his girlfriend(who is probably a hag now unless the therapy was created before she hit the wall), a man with the last name of his lawyer, presumably his lawyer's son or something, aaand some other personidk.
THAT'S ALL .it's really good so far, there's like *great* quotes, like when he opens the Bible, he hears "Who is the Son of Man?" as the first instance of the technology he made existing in this new world, now he's been talking to "himself" inside of his prisoner file, and it' faaoaergjoergearg--anyway, it's freakin great, looking forward to readan more.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand... that's all for me rn. I've been a little. out of it. not really good.
I want toooo: finish writing Spooks in Space, finally, that's something I have to do. But I haven't even looked at it in so long. But I still have to do it. So instead of Longbottom, I'll be focusing on that-- I need to... get the... I was working on it in Google Docs, I need to lookatthatlater
anyway. i'll ttyl. pls take care of yourself. have a comforting day. God bless friend
The importance of a girl's nose cannot be overstated.
Hey friend, I hope you're well today.
I'm-- not too bad. I'm at level 8 of Zelda 1. What do you think about that?
I've never beaten Zelda 1, 2, orrr... ALTTP. Barely ever played 1--never played 2--got pretty far into alltp, lost steam, because I don't think it's all that--So this would be cool to finally do.
Before I forget, an old man in lvl7 said "There's a secret in the tip of the nose", and it justlmao because everything goes back to women with me, it made me think of how CUTE girls' noses can be. You ever think about that? It's important. It's like, the center of the face, it's KEY. You ever just see a girl from profile ADMIRE her NOSE?lmao they're just CUTE. Sometimes they've got that way they turn up at the tip, right? It's so FU--excuse me i'm sorry, it's just very attractive.
Anyway, I was reallyyyyyyy not enjoying Zelda 1 at first. You're so pitifully frail, enemies swarm the shit out of you, hearts and fairies aren't common. But every single upgrade you get feels very meaningful. And as you start to learn where stuff is, like a nice little fairy fountain where you can heal up all you want--things just progressively get easier. Mostly. You know, at the beginning, wandering around in the field at all is like a fight for your freakin life. But now, wherever I'm walkin' around *I'm* the big dogAAWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO RAH RAH RAH RAH RAAAAAAWWWWWHHRRRRRR BIG DOOOOOOGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG -- even Lynels are NOTHING to me now, when a few hours ago they'd just rape me, they'd make me their girlfriend. They'd put me in thigh socks and I'd be the communal free-use cu-- sorry. Point is, I'm safe now. They can't hurt me. Nothing can.
Uhhhhh... Level 6 sucked, I'll say that. The Wizzrobes are fucking bullshit. Spamming them along with Like Likes to eat my FUCKING, excuse my mouth, eat my shield *and* ...the BUBBLES, so I can't even DEFENDAAAAEFEFEOIFAJOIEJRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH Level 6 sucks. It's not that it's *hard*, it's just annoying. But also, fuck them because I was using save states anyway :^) Yeah that's right, I'm not playing this SHIT without save states. It's been mostly-enjoyable, it's the start of one of the greatest game series ever made, but it's still plenty of ball-busting 80s bullshit. I wasn't ALIVE in the 80s, this isn't designed for me, the same way uh... idk, Ocarina of Time isn't for Gen Xers. I've paid my HARDCORE dues, I've finished enough FromShit games, I took the 2-minute walk back to Artorias over and over and over again, I BEAT NO FIGHTING IN THE WAR ROOM ON VETERAN, I don't have *TIME* anymore.
But it is-- I do finally see the magic in Zelda 1. It's definitely there. No wonder it was a hit and became what it is today. I'm actually *really* looking forward to trying out 2. But I still have 2 Levels to go, and maybe Death Mountain will break me and I'll never finish it, who can say?
Uhhhhhhh... did you know someone translated The Binding Blade for the GBA? I LOVE people who translate games, they're freaking HEROES, man. There was something else, I can't remember it rn, but uh... fans translating games is just such a great thing. Especially these days, when I'd rather them *not* receive "official"(incorrect) translations anyway. Localization apologists sob about "Japanophiles" and weebs, but I'm sorry faggot, I just want the *original* story. "T-the exact translations don't make sense--" isn't good enough to excuse wildy-different changes. If fans can make better translations--and they do seemingly every time they try--then how could I possibly be expected to want your shit?
i just love this one example I encountered the other day. I'd already known about Crosses being removed in U.S. versions of Dragon Warrior(quest), but I COULDN'T HAVE IMAGINED how fucking dumb they'd make the "priests".
The "priest" in the NES version is like a fake tiktok faggot pastor, but in the SNES one he's a normal priest. Here's the actual farewell quotes from the same npc.
SNES, fan translation: "Oh God! May you bestow your protection upon your children!"
NES, localization: "Good luck and hey, let's be careful out there."
Hey ya'll, let's be careful out there.
These fucking people have been making games shittier since before we were born and it's ONLY gotten worse. Retards say changes like this are inconsequential, but not only are they not, they also add up, because they're *all over* the games, and they're *neeeeeeever* any better than the original.
And you know what else is really bad? They're smug about it, too. They might not literally be saying "ha haaa, we're shitting up your game and there's nothing you can do about it pissbaby :) " but they do feel that way, localizers brag all the time on their Twitters--or I guess now probably mostly on Bluesky--about ridiculous changes they make to scripts, and how happy they are that "all the right people" don't like it. They do the same thing to anime.
But the joke's actually on *you*, because I'm not buying it anyway lmao as IF. You're getting exactly $0 from me, and you don't have a time machine to ruin all of the great games and anime of the past, so there's actually nothing *you* can do to ruin my entertainment, [various slurs].
I win.
How did I even end up talking about this... ... ... ohhh, Fire Emblem, I was excited to play the Japanese GBA Fire Emblem, Binding Blade. If it's as good as the 2 GBA ones we got in the U.S.(which didn't yet start to suffer from offensively-bad localization) then it'll be a blaaaast man.
Look, I haven't bothered to check any translation comparisons for the new games. I just find it a little hard to believe that uh, Mr. Hiroshima or whatever, Ms. Nagasaki over there are suddenly writing tons and tons of obnoxious and abrasive female characters and pathetic cowardly men instead of the incredible heroes from the GBA games.
But idk, maybe whoever officially translates Fire Emblem now really does a fantastic job, I just -- I know that leftists would like us to believe that Japan has already fallen and is exactly-as insufferably gay as we are now, BUT, if that were actually the case, aggressive localization changes wouldn't even be necessary in the first place. Like if I bothered to ask Perplexity -- okay fine, let's do it real quick:
Ask: Since English localization of Japanese games is so controversial for its infamously poor editing and mistranslation of scripts,were there any such examples noted in some of the recent Fire Emblem games?
Answer: Yes, there have been several examples of controversial localization changes in recent Fire Emblem games:Fire Emblem Fates Removal of certain support conversations and alterations to others.Changes to character personalities, such as Garon being portrayed as more paranoid in the localization than in the original Japanese script.Fire Emblem Engage Alteration of romantic content:The S-rank support conversation with Anna was changed to be more platonic in the English version compared to the Japanese original.General localization issues:The English localization has been criticized for containing intentional inaccuracies that reflect the values and opinions of the localization staff.Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade A minor translation error caused confusion regarding character endings:Guy's epilogue in the English version suggested he became the "Sword Saint," conflicting with Karel's known title in Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade.These examples highlight ongoing concerns about the accuracy and faithfulness of Fire Emblem localizations, with critics arguing that such changes can significantly alter character personalities, relationships, and even story elements from their original Japanese versions.
I can actually think of more off my head, but they're vague memories so I won't bother. The "General localization issues" basically sums it up. It's just like death by a thousand cuts. And that shit just sticks out like a sore thumb, all the time, it SUCKS because it DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY. That's all. I'll be happy when they're replaced by AI :')
The people who defend localization are as bad or worse than the localizers themselves. They'll come up with a cope for any and every change "ACTUALLY IT SOUNDS BETTER THIS WAY", no, it never does, you're at *best* coping because you like the game and at worst coping because RACISTS and SEXISTS are pointing out that it's trash, which it is. And even if it did sound better--again, never ever--I'd still rather hear the original line, please, thank you. Write your own story, don't DICK with Mr. uh... Fujimoto's because you think, for some insane reason, that you can do it better. You're a localizer because you couldn't cut it as a writer. And that's okay. No-one can cut it as a writer.
Anyway, I think I've yapped at you enough. I'll ttyl okay? pls-- ah geeze I forgot to start reading The Doctor of Death Island because I was playan Zzzelda, I'm sorry. Next time. kk? aight, pls take care of yourself and have a relaxing day. God bless, fren.
Hey friendihopeyourewelltoday.
I feel like the Angry Video Game Nerd ruined classic games for me.
Actually I don't, that's really unfair to him. But hear me out anyway. I was just playing Ys forrrr... well, I was playing the famicon version and then theee... one on the Virtual Console, I think it's the TurboGrafx CD one?
When you read "TurboGrafx CD", what comes to mind for you? I don't remember him ever doing it, but it just *sounds* like the name of something AVGN would viciously shit on(also literally). My first console was an N64, so my only exposure to anything before it was AVGN videos. Everything before the N64 might as well have been a pong console, and a lot of the games AVGN would show in his videos would be worse than a pong console. So I like, developed the kinda vague belief that everything back then just absolutely sucked. When only about half of it sucked.
Meanwhile there's like, JRPGS on the NES that are still better than games coming out today. And not aaaaaall of the action games have fast-moving enemies with tiny hitboxes... I think.
That's all, that's my point. There's GOLD to be found in the past. I yap all the time about Dragon Quest, and it started onnnnn... what, the NES I think. And it can't POSSIBLY be the only good NES game, even if you don't like Mario and can't cope with how shitty Link moves in Zelda 1 while FILTHY R*VER ZORA relentlessly spit at you.
I was playan FAXANADU. How about that? It's Falcom Xanadu, and it's preddy COOL. It's got a really neat atmosphere, it kinda reminds me of... Arx Fatalis in a weird(not weird but I'm too lazy to think about it) way. So noooooow maybe I'll check out the Dragon Slayer series. Surely they'll be--
Anyway...
I'm never going to play all of these. What am I avoiding?
Lemme see... what's the next story that we're gonna read?
Yoooooooo, The Doctor of Death Island is up next! I guess that's the last one in the series. Not the last story in the collection though. Very exciting. I'lllll start going over it next time, I think it's a much longer story than Toy Theater was.
Oh, was I going to Yspost a little? The TGCD version is prettyyyyy cool. Maybe I'm tempting fate, but it's *way* easier than the other versions so far. And that makes itttt-- it lets you enjoy it more. Soak in the muuuusic a little. I liek it.
I forgot that I'm supposed to write a Longbottom chapter....... ffffff... we left off with Hogwarts taking over the Moon and Neville retreating to Earth. I guess I'll throw him in a European country with a female leader. To shelter the Moon Presence. Let's seeee what countriess... Oh God I forgot Italy, my poor Italy. "B-but she's based!!!" >left her "partner"(father of her child) because he "made chauvinistic remarks". >Sues a journalist for calling her a fascist, instead of throwing it out of a helicopter
>is female
Forget it, I can't have Neville landing in Europe after all--
Just wasted 10 minutes arguing with Perplexity about the EU's interference with members' elections
--that's it, I'm not writing any Longbottom. *next next* time maybe. It's just. It's really fun to write, but I'm not up to it rn I guess.
Here's the leader of your """""fascist""""" party, dude, she became a single mother because her boyfriend was SEXIST 😹😹😹🇮🇹
Hey, see if I care. I'm gonna play freakin. Ys. and. Dragon Slayer. I'm gonna get my XANADU on.
XAAAAAAAAANAAAADUUUUUUUUUUUU XAAAAAAAAAANADUU-- UwU now we are heree in xazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
zzzzzzzzzzzzi'll ttyl. pls take care of yourself. and haave a relaxingg day. God bless friend
Hey, I hope you're well today.
My brain is tapioca. I've got nothing left in the tank. I'm just so tired, all all the time.
Uh... first, I just want to say "recommended topics", or "suggested"-- it's absolute cancer, and I hate that they're in Perplexity and you can't turn them off. That's insane.
I just HAVE to know "BLUESKY CEO WEARS A T-SHIRT TO TOTALLY TROLL ZUCKERBERG"? The head of an irrelevant fringe social media platform wore a shirt? That's news? I'm going to
What use can I possibly have for that information? It's like they're just integrating normal retard-trivia news that I try so hard to escape from. It's just shit that does *nothing* except bait me into a fucking 5-minute argument with AI where I bully it into submission no matter how many "it's important to undestand..."s it cries , YOU STUPID MACHINE, *I* AM THE EXPERT
Okay, you can at least turn it off on the website. Sooo I'll just uninstall the app and make a shortcut to the site on muh homescreen. That'd work fine, right? Okay, I'm happy now :') Lemme take a nice, deep breath and get a sip of waaaater.
...
Sorry I'm uhZzzzz... what am I? Am I hungry... no, I'm just in a weird mood. I've got a lot to yap at you about. uhhhhhh...
I read The Toy Theater, it was nice and short. Too short, even. It's about aaa marionettist traveling to another planet to visit and learn from a *master* of the craft, a man named STROMBOLI.
Starts with him coping with his cramped little room on the ship, but then landing in a gorgeous, rich, lush, GREEEEEN world. So ok--
Stromboli's man who comes to pick him up asks him to show him his own skillz, so bro does so
I made her throw open her lid and climb up to sit on the seat with us, where she sang to the driver in her clear voice. Charity is a head taller than I am, blond, long-legged and narrow-waisted; a subtle exaggeration, or so I like to think, of a really pretty showgirl. After I had made her kiss him, dance ahead of the horse for a while, then climb back into her home and slam the lid, the driver said, "That was very good. You are an artist indeed."
The marionettes are *much* more advanced than the ones we know. Between how they're made and how they're controlled by skilled hands.
They're not on strings anymore like traditional ones and they're controlled on a little handheld device-- Stromboli can control 5 at once, one with each finger, and believes our Bro may one day even do six. The marionettists can do different voices like perfectly replicate female voices between their own ability, the control, and little speakers in the dolls. Stromboli has these 3 girls doing a perfect song and dance as good or better than actual humans.
Stromboli teaches Bro a bit, and they just have a great time as you know, student/teacher/peers. When it's time for Bro to leave, the normal driver's out, so Stromboli's MISTRESS Lili drives him instead and talks a bit about Stromboli. She's FOINE and propositions Bro since he has plenty of time before his ship leave. He decides against it, saying he has a wife(he doesn't). When she leaves him, Stromboli's goofy butler, ZANNI THE GREAT comes running along with Bro's shoes that he forgot and makes a scene for everyone. Zanni the Great is actually Stromboli's famous puppet and Bro knows this so he looks around for Stromboli, finding him eventually in a corner just looking normal and acting like he's not controlling a silly puppet delivering him shoes lol He continues talking to Zanni anyway as he looks at Stromboli
His face was perfectly impassive while his fingers flew over the levers of Zanni's controller. I said, "Joruri."
"Joruri, sir?"
"The Japanese puppet theater. The operators stand in full view of the audience, but the audience pretends not to see them."
"That is the master's field, sir, and not mine; but perhaps that is the best way."
"Perhaps. But now I've got to catch my ship."
"So you said to Madame Lili earlier, sir. The master begs leave to remind you that he was once a young man very like yourself, sir. He expresses the hope that you know with whom you are keeping faith. He further expresses the hope that he himself does not know."
I thought of the fine cracks I had seen, under the cosmetics, in Lili's cheeks; and of Charity's cheeks, as blooming as peaches.
Then I took my second-best pair of shoes, and went out to the ship, and climbed into my own little box.
Thoughts?
Obviously it's really easy to soyjak over the last line "!!!HE'S JUST LIKE A PUPPET HIMSELF!!!"
But everything else is what really ROCKS about this to me. When you're reading it, you suspect Lili might be a puppet-- we can't REALLY know for certain, but of course she *might* be and even *probably* is. What makes this ending hit hard is, what I believe, to be the implication that they're-- okay, it sounds funny to just say "they're fucking their puppets", but really think about it. You've got these ultra-realistic physically-perfect women that *don't talk*. Imagine traveling around with one all the time as your job, that's insane. Stromboli's *Italian*, there's no chance he didn't fuck them, at LEAST in his youth, and that's EXACTLY what he meant by that. "I hope you know who you're keeping faith with, and I hope *I* don't know." He hopes Bro's not clapping Charity's cheeks.
Now, I'm leaving out all kinds of little details, I can't just tell you the entire story, but it is uh-- just trust me, it makes sense. Stromboli left his wife for years when they were young so he could go perfect his craft and become the marionettist g.o.a.t., and, of COURSE, he had sex with some of his sexy hyper-real dolls. If Lili *is* a doll, it confirms this, but either way, I'm just right. This is CLASSIC Wolfe hornyposting. It might not be a robot waifu, but a realistic marionette waifu that you can control *to human levels* with one or two fingers? Come on. Or rather, don't.
So that's The Toy Theater, it was a fun little story. What do you think about Stromboli's warning? Do you think you masturbate too much instead of impregnating your wife, which you should be doing instead? iirc Stromboli doesn't have any children, that's a POTENT point, his wife remarks that they're lonely together. When Stromboli was away for all of those years, what was his poor wife doing? I'll tell you what she wasn't doing: having children. Good going, Stromboli. I hope it was worth it.(it wasn't)
Anyway... good story. Anything else?
WAOWIEI GOT A NEW TROPHY!!!!!!!!! 🖐️🤓🖐️

I've got so much *shit* i want to do, I have to republish my booooooks, I have to finish Spooks in Spaaaaaaaaaaace, I'm just. REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
NEXT TIME, NO BLOG POST, A NEW LONGBOTTOM CHAPTER TO SHAKE SOME DUST OFF.
Anyway, that's enough out of me rn. I'll ttyl ok? pls take care of yourself and have a gooooood, relaxing day. God bless friend
hey friend, I hope you're feeling well rn
uhhh-- lemme just get this out of my head real quick
Part of being a UFC fan is interacting with a lot of Muslims because of the Dagestani fighters. Over time I've seen a lot of, excuse my French, sillybilly arguments against Christianity from Muslims.
The other day I saw one comment something like-- "Jesus didn't stop the Romans from killing him lol you think he has your back?"
Now, as *you* know, Christ didn't really come to... get into fights with Romans. He came to sacrifice Himself. He also happened to *come back* too. He conquered death, which is kinda why Christianity exists. If Jesus killed the Roman soldiers by blinking, you could just say "Why did he have to blink?" Even at its core, it's basically "If God exists, why does bad stuff happen?" which isn't a good argument from an Atheist, and is *a worse* argument from a Muslim, who supposedly believes in God in this world where bad stuff happens.
I've also seen *multiple* times, them say that Jesus couldn't possibly be God because if he were a man, he would have to... poop. and pee. And idk I guess that wouldn't be godly. I've actually seen them say "God CAN'T poop" the way that some lmao the way that some theologians will say "God can't lie" or "God can't contradict Himself". They're not joking, they're like very serious about it.
There's a few racist jokes that would be really applicable here, but lemme just get to the point-- I know poop is gross. It's fucking horrible. But it's also human. POOPING is not *worse* than dying on the Cross. It's not worse than a lot of things, and it goes right back to that uh, appeal to emotion, it's The Problem of Poop.
"Did Jesus Poop?... Then... *tips taqiyah* why call him God?"
If God wants to be human, He's allowed to poop. I don't like people telling me what God can and can't do. I don't even like people saying "He can't" with uh-- paradoxes, I kinda think that God can make 2+2=fish, but what I *know for certain* is that if, when He decides to be born of a Virgin and become Man, he wants to POOP, then he can poop. And you know what? Maybe He even DIDN'T. It really doesn't MAAAAATTER, and it's not up to you or I whether God DOESSSSS SOMETHIIIIIINGGGGGGG. It's just such a CHILDISH thing to take issue with. God becomes Man, and lives a human life. He breathes, eats, sleeps. Why is POOPING a problem, but BREATHING and BLINKING aren't? Because it's GROSS? YEAH, POOP IS GROSS.
"Dude, I know like, Christ healed the sick, raised the dead, died for the sins of the world and rose from the dead, but... I just can't get over the thought of him pooping..."
THIS IS EXACTLY THE ISSUE I HAD THE OTHER NIGHT. No matter what you do in your life, even if you're GOD, some fucking RETARD, excuse me, will sum up your entire existence in a single word.
Poop.
Anyway, that's all I want to yap about rn. A lot of the time they'll post these gigantic multi-comment essays where they try to cherry-pick scripture to say that Christ isn't God. It's not compelling. (You) know the Bible way better than I do, and *I'm* able to read these essays and think up scripture to DEBOONK them right off the top of my head. But the Problem of Poop and "Why he die" are memorable I guess. I don't spend any time thinking about Islam, and I defend Muslims kinda a lot, so when I see SHEEEEEEEIT like this, it's like a bit of a wake-up call or something.
But congrats to Muslims for Big Ank's victory. Very good fighter. Bit of a robbery, maybe, definitely cowardly r4, but he did what he had to, that's the sport.
Anyway, whaaaat else...
? uhhh... I fiiiiiinally beat the eeevil mage who trapped the princess in the mirror. I feel so *weak* though-- I mean, my party feels so fragile. Like most of them will die to the monsters in the area in around... 4, 5 hits. They've got pretty good maaaagic, though, but they're FRAAAAAAAIL, it's like everyone's a glass cannon. Except *me*, I'm just BAD. ME, the HERO, I am the worst member of the party lol. My Magic attacccc isn't high even though I have some good spells, I only have the most basic Healing spell, I'm just like, shit. I haven't gotten anyone to advanced classes yet, that's . surely my issue. I'll get stronger. I'm not going to get weaker, right? raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh You know what I got from the king for killing the evil mage and giving him a wife? A WATERGATE KEY. The level of disrespect makes me sick.
Fate/Extella Link- I finally got to see Jeanne d'Arc's *full* story, she's mostly in the last branch you can unlockk... uhhhhhhhhhhhhh. It was pretty good. Charlie really just notes that she saves France (Something cool that *did* happen though was that Charlie said something like, he still wants to unite his people for God, up until then he was basically Atheist Magnus Rex, so he's not JUST a twink obsessed with looking cool after all. Now he actually is)
Uhhhhhhhh-- Jeanne gets summoned by some fucked up lunatic idr his name-- "Gilles de Rais"? Apparently someone she knew irl who was a serial killer, though some super-intelligent genius detective true-crime fans(complete pants-on-head retards) believe he was FRAMED by the Church, idk anything about him, I don't really *care*, it is genuinely very sad if he was framed by the evil mean big bad Catholic Church that's always up to no good, but he is wherever he belongs now either way. In Fate he's just definitely the serial killer. He summons Jeanne to serve Magnus Rex and fight (You). While you're beating the crap out of him, he says weeeird stuff like he wants to... "desecrate the love of your God", something like that, which is notable since he's normally yapping about the will of God. Anyway, (You) defeat both her and Gilles. Jeanne leaves, accepting Your victory as the Lord's will and wishing you well, and Gilles is ADMONISHED by none-other than KARNA, the uh... son of the -- Indian Sun god? Who compares Gilles unfavorably to Magnux Rex, saying "You would prove God's existence through blasphemy, while Magnus Rex would prove His existence through chasing Him." And says that he knew Gilles never really believed in Magus Rex's dream, he was just using Magnus Rex to uh... idk. Get love or something maybe. Gilles dies, basically at peace and slightly realizing the error of his ways?
It's kind of nice. Yuge W for the game capitalizing "Him."
Kk that's enough out of me, post was waaaaaay too long yesterday and even this is too long, I'm sry. ... uh........ I'll start reading The Toy Theater anddd I'lltellyaaboutitlater.
kk, pls take care of yourself. aaaaaaaaaaaand have a comforting day. God bless friend
Hey friend, I hope you're feeling well rn.
I've got a lot to yap at you about but not a lot of energy so pls excuse me.
First-
I was just listenan to a little moar PERFECT GUY LIFE(I recommend the entire vid) with Sam talking about how shitty Diablo 4 is. Sam has a very neat way of giving really enjoyable, completely-correct takes that are exactly what I already know. But it's validating because I've always liked him. And I've really enjoyed seeing him evolve over the years, and I do owe a lot to him and Charls Caroll for their book recommendations.
Anywayyyyyyyyyyyyy
Charls points out that the game's writers just invert good and evil, which is like, idk, all game and tv writing for as long as I've been alive. YOU AND I have talked about this before, idk why I'm even bringing it up here exactly-- is the reason really just because I was listening to it and it's what I'm thinking about rn? Maybe. But idc, I'll take a second to appreciate Sam and Charls and Nick for being unimpressed by shitty writing.
OH YEAH, now I rememberlmao it's because I'm going to USE Diablo 4 to bolster my already-valid cope that Fate is not anti-Christian.
Diablo 4 is a fantastic example of the Western slop I'd be unable to tolerate. There's no "well at its core it's not so bad" way for me to cope with shit like it, because at its core, it *is* bad, that's its entire point. If you go to that video's comments you'll see a guy saying he saw a Reddit post titled "Umm... why are we against Lilith again?" and AAAAAAAHAHAHAHJITROHOIJTRHOJIDRTTHROIJ
Japanese RPGs with Christianity being uh, perhaps portrayed a little unfairly *sometimes* from a very-foreign viewpoint, but also having plenty of cool Christian characters doing cool things-- isn't even in the same realm as these shitty subversive stories where "Lilith gave us freedom, sin is our birthright" and "Dracula's only bad because the Church killed his wife first!" written by people who live next to Christians and hate them. You understand it's a very different spirit. Japan might be very "Humanity is good", but Western Atheists are very "Bad is good". The guy in the next town over not knowing you, or even thinking that he wouldn't like you, isn't the same as your neighbor hating everything about you.
If Rex Magnus was a character in Diablo 4, the ending would be Lilith effortlessly defeating him, revealing "There is no God, only HATE!" and then she'd castrate him and he'd be eaten by little demons, because he's not worth her time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She's sooo badass fuck yes, this is SO going to trigger the chuds. YAAAAAAAAA
Anyway... was there something else... oh, we've got a lot to talk about.
Fate. I met Jeanne d'Arc in Extella/Link. She's really cool. La Pucelle("The Virgin/Maiden" or "Maiden of God") is one of her Noble Phantasms-- it's the attaccccc I saw her do in Samurai Remnant.
It's "a conceptual crystallization weapon interpreted as her burning at the stake in an attack-like fashion."
She recites Psalm 19, throws the sword of Saint Catherine in the air, it lands, and everything around burns, but it kills her too.
"In exchange for her life, she gains access to pure destructive power that cannot be calculated, which allows her to annihilate anything in existence. However, these flames only destroy that which she considers a dangerous threat that must be destroyed. In other words, this Noble Phantasm cannot be used against simply a strong enemy or out of emotions like hate."
So freaking cool.
Meanwhile nu-Castlevania be like "Actually 'holy' water is merely a special kind of ACID!"
As far as gameplay goes lol-- you have 3 times you, as a Master, can use a "Command Spell" to either teleport, power up, or resurrect a Servant. So you can actually use La Pucelle 3 times, if you reallyyy had to. So Jeanne's just awesome, just like she is irl. And it's fun playing as her, she uses her banner instead of a sword! Here's what she said during her trial irl:
“Which do you love best, your banner or your sword?”
Her eye lighted gladly at the mention of her banner, and she cried out:
“I love my banner best – oh, forty times more than the sword! Sometimes I carried it myself when I charged the enemy, to avoid killing any one.”
Then she added, naïvely, and with again that curious contrast between her girlish little personality and her subject, “I have never killed anyone.”
"40 times more", than the sword of Saint Catherine, the sword she found miraculously. Sometimes you have to love women, don't you? What if YOU or I received a message from God to find a sword in a church? That's such a GUY fantasy, to find a freaking main-character sword. I won't speak for you, but I'd be so horny to USE it, surely I'm SUPPOSED to, aren't I? A-aren't I supposed to play irl-Musou with this? Jeanne was cut from a different cloth, she never killed anyone.
I was thinking of, idk a better term for it, but "historical slander" earlier-- """""recontextualizing""""" historical figures with little-evidence to change heroes into villains. Like a really really simple example is calling John Lennon a wife-beater. And maybe he was, I literally don't know or care if he piledrived Yoko through a table, but I know for a fact that even if it were filmed, 99% of his life *wasn't* him doing that. Does that make sense to you? It's not-- ah geeze I have to get a little further off-topic, but obviously this happens with living-people too, where a person's entire existence is invalidated with a single sentence on the top summary of their Wikipedia article[source: some faggot who doesn't like them working for a media outlet]. Something that tickles me is the fact that the most evil misogynist on the entire planet, Donald Trump, over 30 years ago--before most of the people reading this were even alive--was the first man to ever hire a woman to oversee the construction of a skyscraper. Sometimes I think about that. You say a few vulgar remarks about the opposite sex--which every human who ever lived has done--and I have to pretend that your eighty--EIGHTY years on this planet can all be summed up in one word, "sexist".
What was I even-- oh, so ALL I WAS *GOING* to say was that I'm sure slander of Jeanne *exists*, but it's pretty uh, "nice" that I've never *heard* it. Does that make sense? Like she's just so pure that it's *not* some kind of pop-culture "All the Greeks were gay" fake-history trivia that "Um, actually, she was secretly a total bitch and a huge slut huehuehueh." Obviously, soulless dorks will just say "she was crazy", but I mean some kind of uh new trivia, based on little-to-nothing, that would RECONTEXTUALIZE her. I just thought of two easy ones and I don't even want to say them.
Miraculously found a sword and chose to never use it. Magnificent woman.
But you know who DOES use a sword?
King Arthu-- excuse me, ARTORIA, who is a cute girl. (Not to be confused with Artorias from Dark Souls, who Lancelot basically is in Fate)
Artoria is reallyyyy good, maybe better than Jeanne. Excalibur: Sword of Promised Victory is her NOBLE PHANTASM, but she also just uses it for normal attaccs. You know, innnnnnnn-- in Musou games, ALL characters are freaking super-powerful though. But Artoria's attaccs all feel very strong anyway, and she doesn't have to *die* like Jeanne to use her NP. Now, they are lmao they are different CLASSES though, Jeanne is a Ruler and Artoria is a Saber. "What does that mean?" you ask, well uh-- it means nothing in this game lol. Idk maybe it means SOMETHING, but as far as I can tell, there isn't a Weapon Triangle like there is in Fate/GO and I guess Fate in general. I haven't yet memorized how Fate's classes work, but you know, it's rock-paper-scissors. In Fire Emblem, sword beats axe, which beats spear, which beats sword. Stuff like that. Dynasty Warriors has a bit of that too. I actually like it, it really makes the Fire-- I *cannot* praise the Fire Emblem Warriors games enough, they're a freaking blast. Being able to order units around is suuuuuuuch a nice feature. (Although in Extella Link, your allies do actively capture enemy forts surprisingly well)
Okay, enough Fate yapping. I think... did I have anything else to say?... yeah, Archimedes is such an obnoxious asshole. That's all.
Uhhhhh... Tracking Song. I finished reading Tracking Song. Ittttttttt was really good. Where did we leave off?
Bro was chasing after the things that took Girl. I was actually *wrong* though, it *wasn't* the Vampires who took her, I must have misread that part. He catches up with the things that *did* take her, and they're these horrible uh... cyborgs. Like kinda-human faces and other parts, but mostly-machine, straight outta Quake. The cyberpunk dream, totally fucking awful to look at. He encounters one and it attaccs him, but he's able to use Girl's poisoned stick to THWACK it, and the human part of it dies, but the machine keeps trying to chase after him. Thankfully, it can't do a good enough job on its own and he loses it.
When the machine-men realize he's "pure" human, they give him a strange staff and take him before who they serve and believe to be the last human, this little dwarf-- a human dwarf, not to be confused with the manlett tribe he'd been with earlier. Girl's there, chained up Princess Leia style to the dwarf's throne. Except, you know, just naked.
Dwarf releases her to Bro, and they're led away to get medical help for Bro. But it's actually "moral" help, and they lock him in a room with KETIN.
Finally we meet KETIN. Ketin is basically Giant Chad. Long golden hair, giant but not as big as the uh--previous giants he'd seen, so Ketin can move around very quickly. The machine-men want Bro to kill Ketin with the poison stick, they want him to recognize his superiority as a human over Ketin and all the other beastmen he'd met, including Girl(whose name isss... Cim Glowing)
It's important at this point to make a note that even though Cim *is* smoking hot and probably looks like Altera from Fate, she *is* not human and Bro recognizes that, he can look at her and tell she's not human.
Bro doesn't even consider killing Ketin, instead telling him his suspicion that they just want him to kill him, which he could, because as strong as Ketin is, a graze with the poison stick is GG. Instead, Bro figures out that there's a hatch in the ceiling to escape and asks Ketin to help find it.
Ketin, a reasonable man, even though he's a BEASTMAN, cooperates fully. Which is pretty great.
You know, they freaking lock Bro in this basement and release Ketin like he's a lion, expecting him to try to maul Bro, and they literally just *talk to each other* instead, even though Ketin's "not human"(by now we realize most of the beastmen are *basically* human)
Anyway Ketin goes HAM, kills a bunch of machine-men and they all escape. Bro has a duel with the dwarf, who doesn't want to be abandoned and has dreams of finding a human woman they can share. They both use their strange staffs-- Dwarf has the same kind Bro has, and they act like serpents and wrap around each other. It's extremely draining to use these staffs, and Dwarf can't handle it, so Bro's staff shanks him. Bro believes that the reason Dwarf is a dwarf is that he must have used the staff when he was a child and it stunted his growth. The staff basically fucked Bro up baaaadly.
They keep following after the Great Sleigh. Ketin leaves them after a bit to go back to his home.
Cim Glowing -- oh, btw, the story's told to us in audio recordings that Bro makes, idk if I already mentioned that lol. But finally it's revealed to us that it's not just a recording device, it's a communications device--the people on the Great Sleigh can also hear him, although they're not responding to him.
In the middle of one night, Cim makes her own audio on the device, confessing her love for Bro and wishing that she could convince him to come back home with her, but she doesn't want to go any further and leave the only world she knows. She's gone the next day, and Bro doesn't know why, but one of the Wiggiki tribe tells him he saw her going home and sobbing, so he at least knows she wasn't captured again. He keeps going.
Eventually, Bro can't go on any further--his wound from the machine-men and being drained by the staff have taken too much out of him. But he realizes that there's a big uh... there's like reflective foil around the planet, probably humans are terraforming the planet-- and he seemingly understands that.
The end has him near-death and seeing the Great Sleigh accelerating toward him, with a winged man coming down to meet him.
Let's just quote it... (Roller is the robot who helped him in the caves, but he died in the cold-- he was about the size of a "giant man")
I see something moving. I thought at first that it was another sledge, but a sledge could not sail on this melting snow. Whatever it is, it is coming rapidly, and it seems too large for a sledge. Perhaps the warmth has revived Roller ... No, it is too big even for that. As big as a hill, and I see people standing on it.
And that is enough. I know who you are now. This small planet is round, and you have come back, and the time for talking into this black box is over. I am going to talk to you face to face. Who is that tall man with you? I think he has ... wings?"
Maybe he died and saw an angel, maybe he saw a guy coming off the Sleigh to rescue him, maybe humans have wings now. He sees people standing on "it", presumably the Sleigh, but does only *one* of them have wings? Why? Is it another beastman working with the humans?
You have to *love* Gene Wolfe stories for their open-endedness sometimes.
Hey, if they did rescue him, which is a strong possibility, maybe he went back to Cim Glowing :3
Why wouldn't he?
He describes her face as "lovely", you *know* she's fit as fucc, she LOVES him. Someone's going to LISTEN TO HIS RECORDINGS, HEAR HER CONFESSION, TELL HIM, AND HE'S GONNA GO BACK FOR HER. There's NO REASON NOT TO.
That's OBVIOUSLY what's going to happen. Unless he just died. In which case, he's in a better place.
So I'm calling this a happy ending. Definitely less painful than The Death of Dr. Island.
Anyway, I hope you liked it too. Our next story is... The Toy Theater. It's a much shorter story, so that'll be fun.
I thinkkkkkkk... that's everything. I'll let you go, you've suffered too much. Plstake care of yourself. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand i'll ttyl, okay? God bless friend
Hey you, I hope you're feeling well rn. Wanna talk aboutttt... LOVE? Vidya? Some TRACKING SONG?
I was recalling my days as an Atheist and I remembered a facebook friend(I met tons of fellow FREE-THINKERS and SKEPTICS from totally-owning theists in comment sections) who decided to have an "open relationship" with his--idr wife or serious girlfriend, they'd been together a loooong time, totally in-sync couple, a happy pair of anti-theists, a match made in heaven--He wrote books about atheism, she was, you know the way a girlfriend will become a mini-me if she's too-involved with your work/hobbies, especially publicly. Then he started writing essays about how, logically speaking, it's actually totally a good thing to not only be with one person, and THEIR relationship was STRONG enough to do it but "it's not for everyone", we've heard it a quintillion times, and blahblahblahblahhh. But not long into it she started miseryposting. I don't remember anything specific, this was like 10 years ago, but basically he obliterated their marriage. That's all. Of COURSE their relationship wasn't "strong enough", whatever the fuck that even means. Everyone just *says things*, I've never heard an original sentence in my entire life. "It's not for everyone."
But lemme stay focused--
The reason I'm writing this because *that* made me think of the OTHER couple I knew, who *were* definitely married, and ended up getting divorced over it and the guy lost his marbles and uh, decided he wasn't a man anymore. Which then made me remember the background-noise vids I've been listening to about a guy who impersonated police for like a decade--Jeremy Dewitte, and HE had an "open"(faithless) marriage--openly cheating on his wife for 7 fucking years, and his just-as-crazy girlfriend helped put him where he is now--prison for the next decade.
And THEN I remembered Destiny, who also believed he could have an "open marriage" because erm, logic and reason, chud, and then his wife, who he'd taken from her previous "open relationship" cucked *him* with a femboy and left him.
and THEEEEEEEN I remembered Rekieta who got addicted to coke, "opened" his marriage and obliterated his life, and the life of *another* married couple--
AND THEEEEEN I REMEMBERED--
You know what I remembered? Fate/Extella Link, because you have 2 wives in Fate. Nero and a Foxy goddess named Tamamo. And here having 2 wives does work, because it's not real. That's why it works.
I finishedddddd the game earlier. It's. Aight. It's really not much better than the first game.
But I wasss-- well, look, it was really exactly what I thought it'd be. REX MAGNUS, the Spirit of Charlemagne'ssss "kingship" is trying to "assimilate" the entire world into himself to rid the world of war and suffering. Like uh, religious communism. There will be nothing but him, God, and "The World." "Charlie", his counterpart based on Charlemagne's adventures is like "HAY THAT'S NOT COOL", and vows to stop him.
Now although it is *kiiiiinda* a very typical Japanese "Christianity=slavery" story and obviously Rex Magnus represents Christian conquest, it *is* at least tempered by both pretty good humanizing of him, but also him expressing that he wants to go "beyond God", which takes the burdern of his actions off of religion.
To suggest that it's even possible to go "beyond God" shows he's no-longer acting as a Christian, and even when he was, no-one could argue with his intentions, other than Charlie stating that he's wrong to try to assimilate the world to end pain because suffering is a necessary part of life. Which it is. Ironically, the "Problem of Evil" is the most popular "argument"(dumb) against Christianity, and poor Magnus Rex STILL gets shit even when he's about to solve all the world's problems smdh.
Overall, it's not reeeeally an anti-Christian game. While "Charlie" is definitely less "religious" than Magnus Rex is, he's still called a holy knight, he still calls himself one, his sword still contains the spear that pierced Christ, he calls his summoning "a miracle", and at the end of everything, he does praise Magnus Rex for his life and beliefs and calls him awesome.
Something pretty interesting, and kiiinda cool is that the "assimilation" into Magnus Rex is *explicitly* shown not to be any kind of "brainwashing", he's just convincing everyone he's right and they're joining him. Albeit sometimes by beating the crap out of them. But hey, in Materialism, might does make right, no matter how Sam Harris tries to cope with it. If Rex Magnus wanted 2 wives, or twenty, he could have them, and it would "work". But he just wants world peace.
I thought it was a nice touch to have the assimilation be distinct from some gay atheist "religion is brainwashing" schtick.
Uhhh... so that's all. Anything else? Yeah, I didn't see Jeanne ONCE. The story branches, so I must have missed her. I wanna go back and find her, I wanna play her! AND I WANT TO SEE WHAT CHARLIE HAS TO SAY ABOUT HER, because she's definitely a hero.
Oh, and Altera was reborn as a loli. She's Charlie and Magnus's... adopted sister? I don't know how, I guess after the first game, but before this one, they met her somewhere, and they-- ...one of Magnus's motivations was actually to save her. Idk from what, I guess just life. Anyway, she's fine in the end and grows back up to adult Altera.
I just played the game as Charlie, he's aight. I don't really love most of the Servants lmao. Nero's fine, but I had my fill of her in the first game. I *think* you might get to play as Magnus, so thaaat'll be neato. I played one level as Astolfo. Judge me, I deserve it, but Astolfo's pretty good, he can summon a hippogriff to ride around.
My brain's a little scattered from focusing so much on the story. The gameplay *is* quite fun, just like the first game, but it's still super-simple, and between the "digital world" style of the game, and the bloated UI, it's a total clusterfuck. Thank GOD it's so easy.
Compared to say, the Fire Emblem Warriors games, it loses everywhere. They're way moar tactical, they've got way more content--stories, characters, levels, weapons, everything. The Extella games feel a little "barren". That said, they're still a lotta fun and the concept's pretty unique.
I'm thankful for anything that doesn't treat Christians like Netflix Castlevania.
Anyway... was there anything else?
Yeah, I'm getting beaten up by ants in EarthBound, but it's fun. I think that's all though. I'll ttyl, okay? Pls taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-- OH THERE'S FIGHTS TONIGHT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA LET'S GOOOOOOOO PEREIRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
ttyl pls take care, God bless friend
Hey friend, I hope you're feeling well today.
I no-longer consider you a fren, you're my FRIEND.
Let's talk about....... story, vidya, uhh, fightssss aaand -- idk we'll see
Where we last left off, our Bro had been taken in by the Manlet tribe. A giant freak tried to take one of them to eat, but he was fought off by the manletchief.
Unfortunately he was more badly wounded than he let on, and he passed away in the night.
Our Bro decides to take his leave, as it is the manlet custom to have a funeral feast on the body of the deceased, and he didn't want any part of it.
He finds his sleigh and rides on in the track of the Great Sleigh, when he sees a TALL, FIT GIRL jogging in the same direction.
Uh, he pick her up. She was chasing after the Great Sleigh too.
Why? I'll tell you: because they'd rezzed her... lover?... after she brought him ded to them. Apparently she didn't like the result though--maybe it was too unnatural, maybe he didn't have his soul, idk--but she killed him again. Now she wants to just go on the ship aaaand just work really, like she doesn't want to live. She wants to be a wagie.
Anywayyyyyy they spend the night together-- he doesn't have sex with her, negative charisma, and he goes out to get more firewood. As he comes back, he sees sOME THINGS taking her. He chases after them and swings a bigg branch at them, but they hit him with something that makes him feel like his chest is on fire and he passes out in the snow.
He wakes up.
Wat do?
Chase the Sleigh or save the Girl?
Men only want one thing and it's disgusting.
He tracks the creatures to a cave, and the fuuuuun begins. He has a "wand" that the girl was carrying, which isss-- what would I call it... kinda like one of those Aztec clubs, but not. Probably thinner... but think of it like that. aaaand, the end has little thorns sticking out of it that are stupid-poisonous. So he sees THEM clearly for the first time--the things that took her.
They're basically giant bats with long legs and beautiful human faces, albeit unnaturally large and sharp teeth.
A few start flappin and flyin at him, and he's batting them around. The poisoned stick absolutely fubars them--earlier he'd struck a smol monkey with it to eat and it died in about a minute.
So he's moving along and finds an underground city with strange machines all over. He spies on the Vampires(he calls them Vampires) and sees them fishing with their talons and flyin' around the ruins of the buildings. He meets a humanoid robot and asks it to help him get food, and it picks his ass up and drives him to a storage container w/ uh... some kind of freeze-dried cubes of noms. So he noms up, and prepares to Rescue The Girl.
That's where we're at. Rly enjoying it, hopefully everything works out. He's worried that he DOESN'T actually belong on the Great Sleigh because they apparently haven't sent out a search party for him, right? We'll see.

exciting, right? I don't like Archimedes at all. his design sucked in the first game. Uhh... a lot of these characters were indeeeed in the first game lol, but a lot weren't. Oh booooy, ASTOLFO. Amirite? Freakin Lu Bu. The first game had a reference to DO NOT PURSUE LU BU. Have ya ever read Romance of the Three Kingdoms, anon? It's really good, I recommend it. Uhhhhhhhh... Yeah like, half these characters were in the first game. No... more. In fact, 16 of them were in the first game. Zzzz Oh no... Charlemagne's the PRIMARY ANTAGONIST of the game? Great. Get hype for Religion Bad. He's been summoned in 2 forms, as a tyrannical Christian king, the antagonist, and as an airheaded twink obsessed with looking cool, the protagonist. ITSOKAYWHENJAPANDOESITITSOKAYWHENJAPANDOESITITSOKAYWHENJAPANDOESITAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA no, no, it won't be ... it won't be so bad. It'll be like "uwu ur too contwolling Chawamaynee uwu" whereas if a New Yorker wrote it, Bad Charlemagne would secretly be homosexual and the game would be very clear that there is no God, before he's brutally killed by a heroic ugly marginalized person. I know that's correct and so do you. Okay? There's levels. Even Twink Charlemagne has in his sword the tip of the Spear of Longinus.
Every day I'm coping, but it's all I can do. And it's valid cope. Okay obviously the game isn't Christian, but it's definitely not reddit. You know exactly what I'm saying-- if this game were made in the U.S., some gay demon would take Charlemagne's sword and snap it in half and be like "Heh, you actually believed this was holy? HA! HAAAAA! ACTUALLY, THERE WAS A SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATION FOR WHY THE SWORD WAS SO EFFECTIVE, IT'S BECAUSE DEMONS' EYES CANNOT PROCESS FAST-MOVING THIN BLADES AND THEREFORE"zzzzzzzzzzz (Netflix Castlevania)
Uhhhhhhhh......... Samurai Remnant. uhhhh... some freakin guy.(edit: Cu Chulainn) i have him as a playable character now. A Lancer who you fought because he was bored and now he RESPECCS you. Idr what his name is but he's in like all of the Fate games i guess. Oh-- also the other "mysterious Lancer" i mentioned the other day, pls excuse me it was actually a Saber--not to be confused with *your* Saber, the trap, it's a Rogue Saber who battled Jeanne, who is herself a Lancer. Okay? Uhhhh.. wha-- oh, and the FOX GIRL who is in love with you, who is a Rider-- I have herrrrrr now too, but I think she just buffs you and stuff idk. And that's great but you can only have 1 Rogue Servant with you at once, and being able to play as the Lancer seems like it's wayyy better than my normal frail human self being buffed. idk though.
ok. Uh... there's some bitch from Holland lmao. she's a Master I guess and she's got an Assassin for a Servant... And uh... yeah. She knooooows you're a Master but you don't know, and and uh, there's a cult of EVIL MAGES summoning monsters anddddddd... it's good, it's all just very nice and fun.
uhhhhhhhsroijoijregoijegroijegr
i played a little bit of Earthbound for the very first time, it's pretty freakin cool. I like it a lot. BUZZ BUZZ NOOOOOOOOooooooooo. But I uh put my "favorite food" as something bad (😭💢uohhhh) so I think I have to start over because I can't cope with the consequences of that.
im overextending on gaymes though. there's probably something very wrong that I'm trying to escape from. Oh well.
I'm freakintired. I need a DAY OFF. im just gonna take a DAY OFFFFFFFFFF, and heal my body. that's all. I'm gonna freakin STAY IN BED. and READ. and dick around on my phone a little. and that's it. WGOSRTHTRHTHR fights... ..................forget it, no fighttalk, illletyougo. pls take care of yourself. have aaaaa relaxing day. God bless fren.
Hey fren, I hope you're feeling well rn
The titles I come up with for blogs sometimes gives me a little bit of heart. Like I know my brain isn't entirely pudding.
Before anything else, I just want to pitch you a fun bit I just sent my other fren, lemme know what you think--
like inviting a girl over to play Smash, but you only allow her to play as Fox or Falco
And you pressure her to pick out her main
she wants to play as Zelda and you tell her Zelda's low-tier in the competitive scene so it'd be "stupid" of her to waste time playing as Zelda
I like that. Idk what to do with it, I'm [paragraph of whining and oversharing, don't worry I'm fine and I'm just being a baby]
uhh-- hey, so let's go overrr... some reading and some vidya, right?
let's start wiiith...
Tracking Song's a loooooonger story than most of the others so far in the ISLAND OF DR. DEATH AND OTHER STORIES AND OTHER STORIES
But it's really interesting so far. Guy wakes up with AMNESIA(unironically fantastic plot device) among a tribe of verrry tall hunter-people(the shortest is taller than him) and he can speak their language. (HE is like a normal guy, carrying a pocketknife and a lighter) Soooo, because he's a manlet, the men have him go with the women to protecc them while they gather plants. He helps them ambush and kill some animal that was running through the woods, and finds that it's a strange looking girl.
The women regard her as an animal though, and refer to her as a doe. They bring her body back to camp to eat her.
Bro goes hunting with the men after that and they track a giant. Giant talks just like them, but they still regard him as an animal and after a dangerous fight, kill and butcher him with our bro's help.
Bro's told to leave camp when the headman realizes hair grows on his face, which means he's not a man. (None of the hunters grow facial hair)
It's their law that any meat except the meat of men can be eaten, so he's like "ya gotta go or one of the women will kill you"
So bro exchanges his share of the giant's meat for a sleigh and-- oh, btw a "Great Sleigh" passed by and none of the hunters understood what it was, but they believe that bro fell off of it because the people on the sleigh were dressed like him. The way it's described, it sounds like some kind of giant ship moving across the snowy landscape, probably as big or bigger than a cruise ship but idk yet.
So he follows the trail of the Great Sleigh. Aaaaand, he encounters ANOTHER tribe of humanoids.
This time, smol bois, kinda ugly. They convince him to come home with them because he's freakin starving and freezing.
They go back and have dinner inside a little hut made from trees and branches and sheeit. The manlet chief reveals that they're actually unafraid of the first hunters even though they-- should I give you the names? I guess I will...
The first hunters are called the Wiggikki, Nashhwonk are the giants-- the one they hunted called himself Mankiller and had killed "dozens" of the Wiggikki including the headman's father. The Wiggikki had spoken of someone called "Ketin" who presumably is another giant, but distinct from the Nashhwonk because he's very fast.
Aaand-- idk who these new people are. ANYWAY: The new manletpeople are not afraid of the Wiggikki even though the Wiggikki do hunt them. The manletpeople seem to routinely steal their food and even manage to kill or at least repel the Wiggikki sometimes. So they're little scrappers I guess.
Now then...
A manletwoman comes screaming in, bleeding.
A giant freak pokes his head in and they have a talk. He's different than the giant Bro talked to with the first hunters, he's freakin weird looking, he's got big green eyes that make him look feminine despite his other features, a voice that alternates between very deep and high--and he's like "Gimme her."
Actually I'm REALLY not doing a good job now, so lemme just give you part of the book:
There was a scream from the open end of the lodge. The woman pariah, who had been sitting there, came diving through the others in panic. Her feet sent the fire flying, and everyone jumped up; the was a babble of voices, and over it all a new voice, sometimes as deep as a kettledrum, sometimes whining like a great cello: "Day's greetings, sons of filth. What fruit had you of the hillside?"
A man almost as big as Nashhwonk was kneeling to peer into the entrance of the lodge. He had a short chin, a short upper lip, high cheekbones, and huge green eyes that seemed too beautiful for a masculine face, so that for all his size and obvious male qualities he gave an impression of femininity, and almost of effeminacy. In one big, soft-looking hand he held a polearm ending in cruel hooks, like fishhooks, made from the ribs of some large animal.
Kk, so a giant freak.
Our manlet headman refuses to give up the loserwoman, even though she is the unloved pariah of the tribe. It's their law to preserve their kind.
As the giant argues that they should just give him someone so he'll leave them alone, he notices our bro, and in the instant his eyes turn away from the manlet headman, manletchief jumps him with his blade and there's a big scuffle. The giant runs away and manletchief is only a little hurt.
Some menlet go after the giant, bro wonders if they'll be in danger, chief assures him that they'll be fine because he's just going to keep running.
"If it were Ketin or the Wiggikki, it would be different, and I would call them back." So even though they're not afraid of the Wiggikki, they are still threatened by them. And the shadow of this KETIN character continues to loooooom over all.
And that's as far as I've gotten. It'ssssss... really interesting, right? These tribes of different kinda-humans all regarding each other as entirely-different species. interestidanting.
anyway... idk, what else? vidya?
The HEROIC SPIRIT of your old master, Miyamoto Musashi has been summoned as a cute girl.
Okay great.
Anyway, >she's in a contract with some other Master, so -- oh, you're in a WAXING MOON RITUAL, which means 7 pairs of Master/Servant are fighting to the death, so unfoooooortunately even though she loves her former student, she must one day KILL YOU.
Also, a BAD version(I think they're just called "Alters" or something idk) of Joan o-- excuse me, Jeanne d'Arc, is summoned as a Servant by some evil sperg, and she's verrrry strong and she and your Saber duel to a draw but THEN you get interrupted by an ASSASSIN Servant, who summons an army of SNAKES so you get to play as Musashi and you beat him but he escapes.
MEANWHILE a uh, MYSTERIOUS LANCER comes-- who you get to play as and it's rly cool and you beat Jeanne BUT THEN, the evil sperg uses one of his three uh... idr, "orders" things, like Masters have 3 times they can force a Servant to do anything, so he makes Jeanne do I guessss her most powerful attacc which burns everything, and it badly hurts Lancerbro, BUT THEN OUTTA THE SKY COMES
Zhou Yu from Three Kingdoms, who is a trap now and an Archer-class Servant. He takes you and Saber to HIS master, some dude. and uh, you form a temporary alliance. so that's nice.
oh, also you're in a temporary alliance with Musashi's master.
Also some cute foxgirl has fallen in love with you.
So +2 playable characters, even though they were only for 2 battles, maybe you cannn play as them moar later. But it'ssssss fun,you know, you'reeee leveling up yourself and Saber, unlockkiinnggg new abilities and stuuuuuuff. It's neato.
Uh... the cutscenes are pretty cool. YeaH, that's what I have to say, really interesting, right? HURRRR DA CUTSCENES ARE COOOOOOL DEY HAVE ACTIONNNN
There's probably some truth to the idea of anime being dangerous with its portrayal of TRAPS, memeing impressionable people into life-destroying decisions. I've written a little about this before. But I think the illusion it casts on people is pretty easily dispelled by going outside or taking a good look in the mirror. No-one goes outside though and everyone's afraid of mirrors, so that's probably a problem. Idk, I feel-- I sometimes think about "Digibro" who literally memed himself into becoming "Trixie" because he created some kind of detailed personality-chart system and convinced himself he was a Touhou girl. I don't remember which one, probably Remilia. They're always Remilia for some reason. Hey, I like Remilia too, but I prefer Sakuya or Reimu, and I don't think that I'm any of them.
The weed probably didn't help, it probably drastically lowered his test and made him sulol made him susceptible to that.
But what, am I supposed to not like anime because SOME poor fucks lose their grip on reality?
This isn't related--well it probably is tangentially--but I have to make a note of this-- I turned on "Brave News" the other day, and a HEADLINE from "Know Your Meme" was about a hentai artist going on a hiatus. I've written before about how fucked up KYM is, so this is just another example I guess. The retards who run the website just post porn. Everyone's too horny. Hey, so am I, but I wouldn't fucking write a """"""""""MEME"""""""""" article about a hentai artist I like *taking a break*, that's -- and Brave is also at fault for this for putting it in my fucking """"""""""NEWS"""""""""" feed in the first place.
"Whoaa, reputable source Know Your Meme has THIS to say!" News feeds fucking suck so much. Excuse my language, I'm sry. I don't even like getting trending/recommended searches on Perplexity because half the time they make me have a quick argument with Perplexity where I have to get it to admit that the "experts' concerns" with whatever Trump is doing aren't especially compelling, because I'M mentally ill.
enough complaining, sry. was there anything else?... idk, who cares... I did actually order Fate/Extella Link lmao. It- it's greatly improved!!! And it has a BUNCH of characters and and--well, I don't have a good reason. I wanted it.
The mobile game's been fun, but it's roooooooooough getting Servants you actually like. I keep getting freakin MEN like... Spartacus. Spartacus isn'tt a cute girl. He's not EVEN a trap, so what am I supposed to do with him? Nothing, that's what. This hero will NEVER be in my party because he's not CUTE.lmao
Anything else? Erm, idk. I'm probably gonna start playing a biiiit of either Fire Emblem Heroes orrr get back into Blue Archive. ...probably Blue Archive would be wiser, wouldn't it? If my issue is "not enough girls", FE isn't going to resolve that. So nvm, I'll play Blue Archive. IT'S A FUN GAME, I recommend it. Fire Emblem's gooooooood though, and you can play it vertically too, how about that?
Anyway... have I yapped enough at you? ...idk, I've got a lot I need to do. Even just website sheeeeit is such a CHORE, and LOOOONGBOTTOM chapters, and I've got no energy for it. But I will. I'm gonnaaaa... I've got stuff to do, I'll do it.
I do have to restart Chrono Trigger lmao my friend's wanted me to play it for years and I got rlyyyyyyy far last year but I stopped. It's a fun game. But I can't juggle, I've surely got to finish DQVI first, right? RIGHT.
I tried like... an INSANE amount of times to get Gemini to generate a good pic of the giant-hunting, but it just fucking can't, it makes the giant kaiju-sized no matter how I word it, I can't be bothered anymore, so pls accept a google search of "cute asian girl eating noodles"
enough, i'll let yougo .............more Tracking Song updoots next time. ttyl.pls take care of yourself. God bless fren
"...Yes, I can; because I want to turn things around. Like, everybody all the time only does it for himself or something he sees being part of him only bigger, an empire or a church, like that. I'm doing it for the ants, to set us loose." The bearded man said, "You stoned?" "Sure I'm stoned. Ken, I'm stoned blind." "You don't look stoned, man." "Trust me." "You believe in more life after you die?" The curly-bearded young man in boxer shorts shook his head. "That isn't what it means. When there's no more, that's Death." "Just the big dark?" He nodded. "The big dark." One of the girls stood. She was a thin and rather flat-chested girl, with straggling brown hair and the large, trusting eyes of a fawn. "I don't agree with that," she said. "If Death is Nothing, why have another name for it?" "That's nominalism," the curly-bearded young man said. "That's camp." After he said it he seemed sorry he had spoken. "And I'm not killing myself," the girl continued. "That's up to them--whether I die or not. I don't think this I is going to live afterward if they kill me--of course not. But something will continue in existence, and there are a lot of things here"--oddly, she touched her shoulders, each hand against its own so that for a moment her doubled arms seemed wings, small and thin and featherless--"we could do without." The bushy-bearded man said, "You're going to let them be your judges?" "My Lord let Pilate be his." She sat down. The curly-bearded young man had turned his back to the screen.
...
Hey fren, I hope you're well today.
Me? Uhhh... Good. Hey, guess what? I've got enough trophies in Super Smash Melee now, so that it's no-longer cost-effective to only use 1 coin at a time in the lotto machine. 5% is where it uh... isn't worth it anymore, since using 20 coins gives you a 99.9% chance, you know? Really exciting, right?
Anyway, that bit of story was from Hour of Trust, still part of the Island of Dr. Death collection. I'll yap about that a bit later. Let's talk abouttt something else first.
Anything. Oh, wanna see some cool and WHOLESOME screenshots from Dragon Quest V and VI? Just a few, because I took doooozens and dooooozens.
literally a Christian game. I know it's popular to cope with claiming "Ohh, they're just using the aestheticccc." And sometimes that may be true, but not always and not here, these games capture the *spirit* of Christianity too. There's no ambiguity here, no 2010s fashionable subversiveness, there's no "Erm, ackshually the good guys are the real bad guys..." it's just heroes killing monsters, saving the world, *and* getting married, under God.
Redditors don't like cool things being Christian, and I understand that because hey, I don't like The Talos Principle's very-fun puzzle solving wrapped up in a gay "Ackshually, Satan's a good guy" story. Orlmao the uh... what's that zombie game... I wrote a page about this a long time ago, 1 sec... WHAT, IT'S NOT IN MY INDEX? Now I have to FIND it in a backup? Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz ok... (btw, what's your backup situation like? I think I need a new hard drive soon)
okay I found it. I don't want to do *too much* rn though. ANYWAY the game was Days Gone, and it's very *fun* but it had some super-obnoxious anti-Christianity bits, among other stupid things. I wrote about it in the page that I'm *not* going to repost rn, because I don't want my daily-post thumbnail to get all divided. So, later. I wonder what other classic gems I took down... I still haven't even added my Whil Wheaton page to muh index...
I'm so bad at having a website, I should hire someone else to do this for me.
Let's just start wrapping up.
Last week, I was having teeeeerrible headaches. I'm feeling a little better, but it *did* prevent me from fully-understanding Hour of Trust. I'm *not* going to re-read it, though, because I got *enough* of it and there's no going back.
Basically, there's a civil war in America and there's these businessmen who are working for the "official"(arguable) remaining U.S. government and are trying to get financing from wealthy foreign governments and corporations so they can actually *pay the military*. They're showing off a uh... neato new communications device, which is like a GIGANTIC-ASS screen the size of a wall that just-- it's like you're there with whoever you're talking to, you know? Our protag, just an aaaaaverage Joe working iirc for the uh... company that makes them?... is at this party with a bunch of rich guys and prostitutes, and they get on a call with the top General of the "U.S." forces, who's basically the head honcho of the entire country now, there's no more anything--Congress, Prez, nothing. And he patches them through to some soldiers fighting the uh... "rebels", who are kinda like normal Americans(also the rebels seem to be winning). And the rich people are just *deeply* unimpressed with how the war's going. A British guy--who supplied the girls for the party--says the same thing's going to happen to Britain in a few years. He doesn't really care.
Our protag has this vague feeling that they should be doing *something* to help. Somehow. He's like "Britbro's smart, I'm strong, you're Irish, we can do something can't we?" No-one knows wtf he's talking about.
The feed to the soldiers gets hacked, and we see some rebels acting as "suicide bombers" against the military, having one last conversation about why they're doing it.
Our based flat-chested Christian girl sadly didn't make it. None of them did. The only thing we know is that she was about to be raped by the U.S. soldiers, and then she erupts in flames. (EDIT: actually, that was probably a different girl because she's written as if she were a new character, so Christian girl probably was just shot on approach, which makes sense since she said she wouldn't kill herself)
The rich people didn't sign up for this footage, but they can't turn it off. Eventually they get the General back and continue asking him difficult logistical questions, basically humilating him as a leader with no combat experience or even really any special tactical knowledge, and he has to take it because he needs their money.
The story ends with our protag in a room alone with a businesswoman he's familiar with. They have sex, and he continues to desperately cling on to some idea of "we can change all of this", trying to tell her. She doesn't care.
Afterwards--having been drinking the entire night(we can tell from how he acts)--he falls down onto the tile floor, probably splits his head open, and dies, even though they try to save him.
Ummmmmmm... it might be hard to tell, but I actually liked it a lot. Half of it I had to like skim-read through because my head was freakin killing me, but *what I could understand* really was... just good. I actually like that ending a lot. He had this idea of somehow stopping this yuge war, and he just drunkenly trips and dies. That's our bodies.
You ever think about that? How easy it is? How, if you fall in the shower, you can ruin your life? My friend, a year after graduating high school, had a seizure and fell in the bathroom. And died. He was what, 19? Not even the prime of his life, God rest his soul.
Uhhh... my thoughts are a little scrambled rn. The "suicide-bombers", I don't know what their deal was, beyond, you know, the war-purpose. They had been volunteers--from all over, "Truth seekers, Jesus freaks, activists, pacifists, about twice as many boys as girls."-- the girl said she wasn't going to commit suicide, and the stoner suggested that then *they'd* be her judge, so... presumably, she was wearing explosives, and if they accepted her surrender, she wouldn't detonate them?
It's a mortal sin to commit suicide, right? God knows what was in her heart. And what was in the heart of our protag, who was... it's so... Gene Wolfe had a great ability to make "different classes" of people, people that are SO different from one another, or YOU and I, that they seem like aliens--except they're completely-realistic depictions of people from that place of life. This was an SUPER-ULTRA-HIGH DEF watch-party of a freakin war, guys are laughing with exotic dancers on their arms, paid for by an international media company, and they're all just wondering "Who should we back in the war?" Is that even such a wrong question? I don't know, the... details are a liiiittle vague iirc(I probably don't) You can't say it's not practical, though. WRITING A BLOG POST is like a Herculean task to me, how can I possibly criticize anyone for not waving a magic wand and bringing about world peace? Something I've really come to appreciate over years is how FUCKING EASY it is to talk about changing the world, and how absurdly difficult it is to do anything. Anything at all. You ever try to improve your own neighborhood? Why not? How about improving even just your life? I'm not criticizing you, I'm asking that of myself too. And I'm not even saying it's not-doable, of *course* it's doable, but you've GOT to understand that the cool and happy thoughts in your head don't translate realistically to the world around you.
On the other hand, it's super easy to fall down and break your skull open. That's really easy. You know why old people fall and break their hips? Because they were lucky and didn't land on their heads. We're ALL going to fall, I mean that literally and figuratively.
So uh, get right with God, that's all.
Anything else?...
Yeah, someone translated the Japan-only Dragon Quest Monsters game for the Gameboy Advance, isn't that something?
I had a vague idea earlier of a post about "Anti-Racists Who Get Mad When White People Like Japan" and itlol it'd be a really good post, but it's too much effort rn. But I'll get to it. Liberals who complain about weebs and "Japanophiles" are the biggest faggots on the planet. But there's a lot to it, and it's making me tired just thinking about it. For example far-right extremists complaining about weebs *isn't* as faggoty, even though I still disagree with it. They're coming from different places, do you understand?
I don't like negative posts anyway. You think I like being negative? I don't, I'd rather eat some ... I'm gonna get something... uhh... ..........oatmeal. I'm gonna get some oatmeal, and that's the end of the post.
I'll ttyl.... I really have to do something *new* with this blog, and this entire website, because I feel lik-- just miserable stagnation, you know?
OH, here's a fun bit of trivia, the fighter I was NOT-hornyposting about yesterday, Itsuki Hirata, she's part of TEAM SERRA-LONGO!
"What does that mean?"
Uhhhhh... nothing. Idk if she even still trains with them. It's just the team Merab used to train with until he moved--you don't care about this at all, do you? Understandable. But look, Matt Serra's really hilarious, he's gotta funny voice and he's just cool. Erm, 1 of 2 men to beat GSP btw 😤 short little Italian meatball. It's also very wholesome that he basically adopted Merab and turned him into the Bantamweight GOAT.
On the other hand, Itsuki's record isn't actually GREAT, she's 6-4. I think you and I can agree that beating more people than you lose to is very respectable, but in these pro organizations that have undefeated fighters, records like 6-4 might as well be 4-6 to fight fans, who are gay and stupid.
Okay, that's enough. I'll ttyl okay? Pls take care of yourself, have a comforting day. God bless fren
hey, hope you're well.
I got my $5,000 DOGEbux check in the mail today. Have you gotten yours yet?
How do you plan on spending it? I think I'm going to save mine--as much as I can, anyway. You know, the last time we got a check for $5,000, it was a "Sorry we destroyed the country because of the flu" check and who knows where the money came from. But I can rest easy knowing that my DOGEbux instead came *directly* from government waste. It's literally better than free money, because $5,000 in my hands, doing anything at all, is more beneficial for EVERYONE than it is going to an anti-productive make-work state job.
Isn't that nice?
I got a book of Dragon Quest illus-- btw I'm just kidding, I haven't gotten my DOGEbux yet-- I got a book of Dragon Quest illustrations.
It's a really neato hardcover with ... Dragon Quest illustrations. As the name might imply. It's so freakin cool, man. I'm not even a Toriyama FANBOY, I don't love Dragon Ball, but his work on Dragon Quest is just 🤌 He nailed it.
What? What's my problem with Dragon Ball? Okay, fine. The original was good--
sry, I just lost like 20 minutes of time, because I searched for Dragon Ball and an image of an MMA fighter who calls herself Android 18 came up. Itsuki Hirata. I want to throw myself off a bridge she's so FUCKING hot-- okay, I'm okay. I'm not okay, I'll brb, I have to cool myself off.
okay. I probably can't be trusted to watch ONE FC. It's not so bad in the UFC because most of the women look like gargoyles so I can just focus on them fighting, but ONE has ALL these CUTE AZN GIRLS, and they're also FIT as FUCC and and-- I'm doing it again, sry. I'm really okay, I ran some cold water over my face lmao
So by not watching ONE, I am actually *overcoming temptation* and deserving of praise. Wouldn't you agree?
What? You're saying that's complete cope and is solely because I'm too lazy to get into a new promotion? You're saying that if the UFC replaced all of its man-faced female fighters with drop-dead beautiful Asian girls with yummy abs tomorrow, I'd still watch it and lust over them?
That may be true, but I don't want to talk about it right now, it's really very shameful and I'm only going to include this because it's content.
Now, speaking of East vs West(we're skipping Dragon Ball entirely now for this perfect segue)
Dragon Quest was unfortunately a victim of the well-documented "American Boxart" phenomena--cover art, especially decades ago, being drastically and badly changed from its original in order to "appeal to American audiences"(people need to pay for subjecting us to this humiliation). This is actually a perfect visual example of localization and how ALWAYS-BAD it is and I should include it on the page I madeZzzzzz. later.
Dragon Warrior I&II was probably my first experience with a game's box art being BUTCHERED. Obviously at the time, I had no idea the level of slop that was being fed to me, I had no idea that there existed pleasant box art of the game. Japan? What even is that? But even then, my tiny little brain was like "these characters are fucking UGLY."
And they were. Toriyama's cute lil chibis had been converted into these 3D monstrosities with creepy faces and dumb expressions.
What a disgrace. It's just *BAD*.
But finally, Dragon Warrior III's cover wasn't a slap in our face. It was probably when I thought "oh hey, this looks like Dragon Ball" Also, probably, "girl in bikini armor😵💫"
I don't always like Toriyama's characters. Sometimes I really don't like their faces, and the way he draws eyes is very hit-or-miss. I DON'T LIKE his Chrono Trigger characters(I'm sure they'd grow on me). Crono looks like a goofy kid-Goku, Marle's not especially pretty and her ponytail sucks, and Lucca's a 4-eyed nerd.
On the other hand, despite being drawn *basically the same* as all his other characters, somehow Android --oh no, I-- no, no I'm focused, I'm focused--somehow Android 18 is one of the CONSENSUS most attractive anime characters ever, even causing ESTEEMED UCLA professor Matthew Christopher Harris to go INSANE because he could never have her! An ESTEEMED PROFESSOR!!!!!
What makes her so special? I don't actually care, that's another topic for another day.
But anyway--... ...anywayylmao Toriyama's Dragon Quest art is just FUN, I LOVE IT. I feel like, with Dragon Ball Z and further-- the more powerful the characters got, the more... idk, boring? Inconsequential? Everything else was. When you can INSTANT TRANSMISSION around the Universe, suddenly you don't need space ships anymore, so you don't have any cool space ships. When you can throw a punch and turn a city into a crater, suddenly everyone's fighting in the middle of nowhere. No more cool cities to look at. The problem with Dragon Ball Z, apart from the fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiller, is we don't get *enough* Toriyama because of the GALACTIC STAKES. The original Dragon Ball didn't really have that, so everything was more "grounded"-- we got to appreciate all the little things more. Does that make sense? And Dragon Quest doesn't have any Super Saiyans, so Toriyama couldn't just draw a bald-headed guy in spandex, he had to draw armor and stuff, and it *rocked*.
So. That's all, I got this neato art book. Anyway, you've suffered enough, I'll let you go. Pls take care of yourself, and I'll ttyl. God bless, fren
when I was little, we had these little fridge magnets shaped like stick figures, you know? Magnet men, they're called.
I used to sing a song about them.
"They're the magnet people, they're the strongest alive!
They'll poke your eyes out!"
That's what happened to Henry Cejudo tonight, he got eyepoked and lost lol. He would have lost anyway, Song Yadong was giving him the dong, but Henry looked great in r1. Definitely won it, only one judge(retard) incorrectly gave it to Song. But it was clear that Henry was tiiiiiiired, and wouldn't be able to keep it up. Very competitive round 2, but then Song def took 3, that's when DA POKE happened, and Henry's like "nvm I quit". You know, 38 years old. For a bantamweight, that's like 80. And Henry's a THICK boy, but he's still undersized. YaDONG looked giant out there. And he's uhh... good, too. It's not just that Henry's on his way to the nursing home, SONG YADONG issss-- great.
The rest of the fights? Who cares, I won't bore you. I'll bore you with something else, I mean.
I finished Dragon Quest V the other day and it rocked. It-- ITTTTT was something special. Quite a journey. Starting as a kid traveling around with your father, becoming a young man going out on your own, meeting a wife, traveling with her, having kids, they grow up and join you--all the while you can also recruit monsters to join you--it's just freaking COOL. There is *SO MUCH* that happens, and it's just this flow of questing that never feels boring, even though it's soooooooooooo long, it doesn't even feel long.
It's also just a-- you know what's very special about it? The *explicitly* pro-marriage, pro-children message of the game. Idk how badly it was butchered for Americans and Europeans, where we're systematically brainwashed into not wanting to reproduce, but the fan translation of the SNES version reveals that the game doesn't shy away from calling marriage a gift from God, an unbreakable bond. Nor should it, it's a very heartwarming story about 3 generations of a family--your family. I think I heard of... ... Xenoblade Chronicles 3? being very "pro-reproduction" but idk i've never even finished 1. It's just a nice message. I'm really really unimpressed by people who not only don't want to have kids but preach that a childless lifestyle is somehow desirable lol. I-- the other day I said something like "Oh, I might be jealous of a guy who's way more successful than me and has a hot gf" but I wasn't really thinking when I said that because my definition of "success" includes children, so ideally he'd be married as well.
I've never been jealous of a man who doesn't have a family, no matter how many selfies he takes at tourist attractions.
Anyway, DQV's a great game. Fantastic pacing. Only had to speed it up a few times because of my modern goldfish brain.
Dragon Quest VI so far? Very fun, too. It's more of a WEIRD one, having you go in and out of a Dream World where everything's the same but different, you know? Story doesn't feel as personal or emotional, buuuuuut, it's still a blast. You can still recruit monsterinos, you meet frens that join your party, and you can actully change their classes like in DQIII, which is awwwesome.
I made myself a merchant lol. And one of the first skills you learn as a merchant is to do a strange dance. The very next skill you learn is to scream. So this is the most anti-semitic game ever made.
No though-- the scream freakin rocks, I love it, it spooks enemies stiff. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
Uhh... something kinda interesting is the game has a bit less "religion" in it than the V. Both of them are fan translations by different groups, so IDK how much that plays into it, but VI hassss like, female priests(this much isn't translation-related) aaand they call you "children of the earth" now instead of Children of God, they'll say like "my church", and they just wish you luck now when you leave instead of blessing you-- but it's not consistent, there's still Churches where the priestbro's like "God watches over His children". Female priests do that too. Now, it *was* revealed in V, that the "God" of the Earth is a golden dragon lol, sooooo-- what? You want me to cope? Okay, the golden dragon is an incarnation of God, which is why everyone calls him that in the first place and why there's crosses *everywhere* until the game came to the West, in other words, they're canon. There's my cope. By *now* I think it's also actual-canon that there's a goddess, but idk anything about her, thaaat's... the newer games. I think. Or wait-- because in ... XI or X or IX whichever, you're literally an ANGEL and I'm pretty sure you're working for "God", be it dragonbro or not, so idk where the "goddess" even is in these-- I... iirc, in III there's a ...birdo, that you can ride, and he's like frens with the goddess, but--BUT--even in that game, there's still "God" in the correct translation.
It doesn't matter that much, it's just a very-- hey, it's /our/ game, that's all. No matter what happens, ever, Dragon Quest originally had Churches, and Link originally had a cross on his shield and prayed before Christ on the cross.
What was I even... oh, so the game's fun. It's rly cool to change classes and stuff to learn new abilities like screamingAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. It's not as "focused" as V is, but it's still very uh... intriguing. A lot of mystery to be solved.
You have a sister, and she says she has a dream where you're a prince(you are) and she lives with you but she's not your sister.
What did she mean by this...
Anyway, fun game.
Is that everything................. yeah. probably. im tired. my head MYHEAD AOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
illttyl, pls taek care of yourself.Godbless fren.
Today's blogbait girl brought to you by our friend Lotus. Thank you for saving me a search. From now on I am taking SUBMISSIONS. I am calling on YOU(You) to send me piclmfao I am calling on you to send me pictures of cute Azn girls for me to put at the beginning of my blog posts to lure people to read them. Okay? Please, help me. Send me an email or what's my discord... asked6813. Okay? Please, it takes me too long to pick out images myself.
Isn't she cute? And her aim is perfect as you can see!
It's been a fun week for
What was better though, was THE DRAMA. First fighter Bryce Mitchell has some Forbidden Takes about WWII, and is terribly disrespected on the Jaxxon Podcast for it, THEN UFC *legend* Forrest Griffin goes on an insane unprompted "White people are evil" rant, also on the normally-fun Jaxxon Podcast.
From UFC fans, Bryce received overwhelming support even to the point where Jaxxon deleted the episode, and Forrest received overwhelming NEGATIVITY for his gay self-deprecating White apologism that WE(society) are thankfully finally moving past.
So I need to take a second to appreciate that even though I'm constantly complaining about the UFC and how bad everyone's takes about fights are, it really is the least-gay sport. Without looking, I know that the UFC subreddit has been melting down over these events, but it doesn't matter. They are the minority, by far. It makes me smile that they have to hide in their faggy little hugbox ineffectually complaining about the MMAGuru doing racist impressions.
Now look, don't get me wrong, even though racism is funny and great and everything, I don't actually enjoy people being hatefully shit on for their race. We're all ultimately God's children, realities of race aside. But the reality of like, pop-culture in America is that racism against White people is largely tolerated. No-one's taking a screenshot and fatly running to make a Reddit post of a black guy's foul comment about "yt boys", even though it's just as common--or even moreso since YouTube's filters are unsurpringly not designed to catch hateful comments about White people. No, they're taking screenshots of White guys (or more probably Hispanic guys amirite lol) saying mean things about Bodies of Brownness.
So it's nice to see a "community"(fuck that word) of people who don't tolerate this absurd historical fairytale that Forrest was spouting where White people were created by the Devil and committed all these unique atrocities while all other races were just trying to live like the Elves from The Lord of the Rings which means, scientifically speaking, that the lil snowflake feelings of pigskin mayo-monkeys don't matter and it's time to have some compassion and empathy for OTHER people! Cumskin cracker >:(
lol.
It's NICE that unlike Reddit, UFC fans are actually very diverse group of people who don't tolerate irrational hatred of a single race 😌 In fact, did you KNOW MMAGuru has a very large Mexican audience? A Reddit would be surprised by that ("Don't they know he hates them?!") but you(You) and I know that all Latinxxxx people are gigantic racists, which is why they're so funny.
Anyway,-- and you know while I'm on this, fuck Redditors EVEN MORE for IGNORING the *REAL* racisim among UFC fans against INDIANS lmao. POOR INDIA! They have *literally ONE* male fighter in the UFC, and he lost his second fight last week. Indians have to take so much sh-- oh no, I'm close to making a joke now myself! See what a problem it is? Do Redditors care? No, they DELIGHT in making fun of call-center scammers and "show bob" texts, then *maybe* they'll turn around and complain about racist Right-Wingers making fun of "street shitting", accidentally implying that shitting in the street is an immutable characteristic of Indian people.
You know what else REDDITORS--filthy, disgusting, EVIL Redditors--ignore? Anti-ASIAN racism, where Azn guys are *constantly* called not genetically fit for fighting any time one of them loses, no matter how good their records are. A small fraction of the fighters in the organization are Asian, so when they lose it seems so much more significant. It's NOT FAIR. But no, Redditors don't care about Asians because Right-Wing White people like them lmfao
A Redditor would rather see a Korean man stabbed to death than on top of a roof with a rifle protecting his store from looters, because a RACIST would rather see the latter.
What was I talking about? Oh, uh, so even though I often HATE the UFC and the fanbase for sport-based reasons, it's pretty nice that the fanbase aren't insufferable retarded faggots. That's really all there is to it. I love all peoples. Except Redditors, the weakest and dumbest race of all.
Anyway. Idk,
I've got a ROACHMON on my PenZ. How about that? Gokimon. I hate roaches. I'm going to kill him.
I could jogress him with someone else, but... maybe I'll do that actually. SO I have to kill off one of the other mon on the device since they're not compatible with him...
Apocalymon. I will kill Apocalymon. As much as I don't like roaches, I guess I like EVIL ITSELF even less.
I sprained muh neck so I'm like, in an insanely bad mood, but I wanted to ta... eh...
oh man, I wanted to talk about Dragon Questttttttt... V. It's sooooooooo good. but I rly am dying rn. it'll have to wait until next time imsry.
Next time will be a vidyapost, no uh... complainposting. that's.erggrtrsthhrsths
ok. i'llttyl. pls take care of yourself, ok?
God blessfren
hey, I hope you're feeling well today. Gimme a sec here... Okay, that's a little better. I'm sitting on my butt right now, instead of on my back like I usually do. You know? Leaning back and putting way, way, way too much weight on your back instead of your ass, and then needing to crane your neck forward--even if you have a brand new 32 inch monitor-- and wondering why you're in pain. Like a retard. Gravity is always pushing down on us, and if you don't balance yourself, keep yourself upright, your body is doomed.
I'm so excited to *not* have any back pain when we go to Heaven, but until then I'll cope.
Uhhh... earlier, I saw a Pinesapp tweet about Saint Catherine, and it struck me like lightning that there's a Saint Catherine in Book of the New Sun, and from what I remembered about her, I felt like she must have been based on the IRL Catherine. Instead of picking up my book, I cheated and asked Perplexity. Let's see what it said, this will be interesting.
Ask: help me out. can you relate the Saint Catherine of real-life to the Saint Catherine of BOTNS?
Answer: The Saint Catherine of real life and the Saint Catherine (or Katharine) in The Book of the New Sun (BOTNS) share several key parallels:
Martyrdom: Both are associated with martyrdom. The real Saint Catherine of Alexandria was martyred for her Christian faith1, while in BOTNS, Saint Katharine is ritually "killed" each year during a feast day celebration2.
Torture: The real Saint Catherine was subjected to torture, including a breaking wheel3. In BOTNS, the ritual involves a symbolic killing with a fake sword2.
Virginity: Both are associated with virginity. The real Saint Catherine was known as a virgin saint3, while in BOTNS, the woman portraying Saint Katharine is likely chosen for her purity.
Annual commemoration: Both have feast days. The real Saint Catherine has a feast day in the Christian calendar, while in BOTNS, there's an annual Feast of Holy Katharine2.
Symbolism: In both cases, Catherine represents steadfast faith and sacrifice. The real Saint Catherine refused to yield her beliefs despite persecution3, while in BOTNS, the ritual symbolizes sacrifice and initiation.
Connection to religious orders: The real Saint Catherine is associated with monasteries3, while in BOTNS, there's a theory that the woman portraying Katharine may have been a Pelerine (a religious order)2.
These parallels suggest that Gene Wolfe, the author of BOTNS, drew inspiration from the historical Saint Catherine of Alexandria in creating the Saint Katharine figure for his fictional world, adapting and transforming elements of her story to fit the themes and setting of his narrative.
Ask: if I'm not mistaken, don't both of them destroy the wheels that were to torture them?
Answer: You're absolutely right, and that's an excellent observation! This is indeed another significant parallel between the historical Saint Catherine of Alexandria and the Saint Katharine in The Book of the New Sun. Let me elaborate:
Saint Catherine of Alexandria:
According to Christian tradition, she was sentenced to be executed on a spiked breaking wheel.
Miraculously, when she touched the wheel, it shattered.
This led to her also being known as Catherine of the Wheel.
Saint Katharine in BOTNS:
In the ritual described in the book, the actress playing Saint Katharine breaks free from her bonds.
She then destroys the wheel that was meant to torture her.
This parallel demonstrates Gene Wolfe's intricate use of historical and religious symbolism in his work. By including this detail, he creates a strong connection between his fictional saint and the historical figure, adding depth and resonance to the ritual described in the book. It's a great example of how Wolfe weaves complex allusions into his narrative.
...
...
Yeah, that all checks out, thanks Perplexity. I'll add that it's also a popular theory that Katherine is the mother of Severian, the main character of the book and a Christ-like figure, which would be appropriate given her association with virginity, whether or not she actually was one. IIRC(maybe I don't) the order she was a part of required virginity, buuuut she was either kicked or left it? I guess Severian's father would probably be the reason for that. I don't remember if it was ever explained why Katherine was ordered to be tortured. I really don't remember. If she w-- hm. OH WAIT A SECOND, SEVERIAN'S MOTHER ISN'T SAINT KATHERINE AT ALL, SHE WAS JUST A WOMAN WHO *PLAYED THE ROLE* FOR THE FEAST CELEBRATING SAINT KATHERINE. That's great!
You know what that means, don't you? The Saint Katherine of the book and our Saint Catherine of IRL are THE SAME. Well I'm asserting that anyway. The uh... the story's set on Earth(Urth) in the way far-future. There's all kinds of uh-- references to our present time, like picture of astronauts and *other stuff I can't think of right now because I'm tired*. What, you think some OTHER woman named Catherine comes later, ALSO breaks a wheel she was to be tortured on, and-- anyway, that's all.
that's my Catherineposting, I think.
Have ya read Book of the New Sun yet, anon?
Uhh... DigiUpdates? Yee, someone evolved last night. MachGaogamon became MirageGaogamon, who is a... Ultimate... what is Ultimate again? V? 1... 2... child?... adult... perfect... ultimate? No, adult *is* perfect, isn't it? Okay, okay, there's Baby I, Baby II, Child(III), Adult(IV), Perfect(V), Ultimate(VI), SUPER Ultimate(VI+), and I *think* there's a +VI+ but I don't know what it's called...
... maybe... super-super ultimate?
what was I yapping about? Oh... MirageGaogamon is just an Ultimate, but he can't evolve any further. So I loaded a new egg.
I'm gonna totally-neglect this one and see what I get.
Uhhh, for the X, I've still got Cherubimon--excuse me, Cherubimon(Vice) X. I'm expecting him to become... what... Belphemon X. Belphemon is one of the Seven Gay --excuse me, *Great Demon Lords, and represents Mars and the sin of Sloth. I guess Sloth is fitting for me. Probably Lust moreso. Uh... Gluttony of vidya, definitely. Pride? I think not as terrible as the past, but still too much. Wraaaath? Sure, people drive me insane even when they're not trying to. That's no good. Am I greedy? Uh, probably. Data-hoarding is pretty greedy, right? "I'm not nearly as bad as OTHER people!" is a perfect cope to progressively get worse and worse and worse and worse and worse and worse
and worse.
Never better.
Am I envious? Uhhhhhh. I'm envious of people who don't have any back pain. I probably don't expose myself to enough other men to be envious of them, I'm sure if I spent way more time around men much more successful than me, with like, agonizingly-sexy girlfriends(I am lustful) I would probably envy them, since my entire life is just sin after sin with no end in sight.
But there will be an end. And I'm just glad-- this doesn't-- hold on, my dog wants to jump up on my bed. Okay, she's up. She just needs me to tell her it's okay, otherwise she just stays on the floor and looks at it.
What was I... eh.
it's easy to just say "Gwarsh I suck", and even if it's true, it's not especially useful. It's a kind of SLY way of being prideful too, I think. You're showing off to other Christians. "Look how aware of myself I am! I'm a sinner! I do ALL the sins!"
Instead of just broadly-painting yourself as a sinner, which you are, it's probably better to get into the detail. That's a little harder. It's more demanding.
So why not pick a sin that you really do feel you commit more than the others?--I'll answer my own question, I don't think it's a good idea to be defined by your sin, it's a kind of perverse personality-test result.
"Tee-hee um like yaaasss I'm a total SLOTH!"
That's the last thing people need, more identities.
But no, you don't use it as an identity, you can just uh...--you're not *celebrating* it, like a godless freak Redditor would, you understand what I'm saying? No?
Okay, here's something you can't possibly *not* understand: I am too horny, all the time, and I need to try to *not* be. There.
So since that jumps out at me when I think of this list of sins, it must something I should really try harder to correct. That's all, I'm sorry for overcomplicating it. Obviously *you* weren't PLANNING on using one of the Seven Deadly Sins as a identity anyway, it was totally pointless of me to get into that.
Anyway.. what was I talking about? Digimon? Oh. Eh.
Belphemon, how about that? You know, I *can't* get into the Shin Me-- M-... Migami... Megami? That's the one, I can't get into the Shin Megami Tens...Tensai? Nope, Tensei. I can't get into the Shin Megami Tensei series. Not because of the demons, but because of the anti-God narrative.
I am a *strong* believer in "It's Okay When Japan Does It", but I can only take so much. God being the main antagonist of SMT is just too much. I don't mind Digimon being named after demons, because they're naaaaames and there's tooons of Angel Digimon. And even though Japan has a kind of "Order vs Chaos/Obedience vs Freedom" schtick that they do with religion, so there's a fair amount of "Church Bad", there's also way more "Church GOOD" than mainstream American/Europe slop.
You know, nevar 4get the 2nd level of Castlevania: Rondo of Blood is titled "God, Give Me Strength", and then 30 years later an "American" got its hands on Castlevania for Netflix, and removed God from the game and turned all the Holy weapons into gay "ACTUALLY IT'S SCIENCE!!!!!!!!!" shit.
What was I talking about again? Digimon? Sry, uhhh... yeah, so my Demon Digimon is going to be a practicing Catholic, don't worry.
Anyway, I've used up way, WAY too much of your time, so I'm gonna let you go. I really want to uhhh... kinda... give me website a uh... whatchamacallit... ...not just a redesign, but I've got a lot of sheeeeeit I just need to clean up, you know. Files and folders I just don't need, everything's miserably unorganized, it's a freakin mess. So I'll try to doooo that.
Right? kkkkkkkk i'll ttyl. pls take care of yourself, and have a comforting day. God bless, fren.
Thoughts on hoop earrings? My cousin once told me "The bigger the O, the bigger the hoe." She's a girl, so that's not misogynistic. Or, if it is, then it's okay, because she's a girl. Or, if it's not okay, then I don't care because I do hate you.
Anyway, this girl's pretty. She's probably got a nice and pleasant demeanor. What? You think I just have a thi-- look, you're not going to SHAME me into NOT being attracted to this girl, okay? It's not going to work. And you're also not going to gaslight me into thinking "ackshually all women are equally terrible", because it's not true, and *that's* what today's post is about.
That's not what the post was going to be about, but I have to go with it now. Let's see... how do I...
The other day, because I am woman(male), I had some trve crime shit on in the background and it was about these 2 white trash whores trying to steal a nerd's car, so he shot one and escaped. She died, and the survivor was charged with murder since she was committing a crime that caused the death. It's such a heartwarming story it makes you want to cry.
You think today's blogbait girl has ever even thought about stealing someone's car? No. She probably thinks about what to get her grandparents for their birthdays. And this isn't a race thing. Not completely. I'm just saying there are tons and tons of girls who don't steal cars and I think it's worth... remembering that.
Here, this is the thief who got her friend killed. She called herself "DEADLY BADDIE" on her --Insta or whatever they were talking on: What fucking wreck, right?
The guy she tried robbing was like-- I called him a nerd, but he's like a typical White guy. Why did he, who deserves so much more just by virtue of not looking like a filthy bum, want to "hang out" with this disgusting creatura? It doesn't make any sense. There isn't a man alive who doesn't deserve better than this fucking slob. You know, it's one thing to have a really stupid tattoo, and for that stupid tattoo to be on your face, and for said face to be riddled with acne, but on top of all of that, having the NERVE to call YOURSELF "baddie". Women are INSANE. This girl should have been too ashamed of her apperance to even leave her house without a burqa, and she's trying to steal people's cars. The EGO.
I saw some epagan complaining about how Christians blame women's insanity on men, but we're right and he's wrong.
Consider "Hawk Tuah Coin" A dumb ewhore makes a memecoin and RUGPULLS everyone, what a SCANDAL. Right? But how did it happen? Did she make the memecoin herself? Of course she didn't, she doesn't even know how to give a blowjob(it is not sexy to hear the sound of spit for +2 seconds of lubrication) Some MEN made the coin for her, and probably put her up to it in the first place. And who bought her stupid coin? Was it women? No, it was MEN. Men who decided "I am going to buy Hawk Tuah coin." Men who deserved to have their money taken--and frankly deserve much worse.
~side topic~
I'm getting off track now, but the outrage over Boogie's memecoin-- fattycoin? From YouTubers made me sick. Lemme check... yeah, Fatty I guess. The OUTRAGE over that from YouTubers like M--uta? Mutah? The fat Indian guy-- it's insane. Memecoins are fun(I don't own any), no-one thinks they're buying precious metals. Hopefully. I know it's like the popular "everyone's so dumb except me" narrative that they're just a scam that everyone's falling for, but I think most people know they're just like digital collectible cards. I guess it'd be sad if someone, for some insane reason, believed that by spending their life savings on FAT, they'd double their money. But you know what? The kind of people kvetching about memecoins and NFTs are *EXACTLY* the kind of people who gleefully sing "Darwin Awards!!!!" when someone accidentally kills themselves anyway.
I don't follow Boogie shit, but his girlfriend here is pretty hot. See? I can like White girls too >:(
THAT'S the kind of girl you sho--lmao tllmhahahahaha so here's the thing, right? What's that statistic-- something like 90% women, regardless of how they look themselves, are only attracted to the top 1% of men or something? You know that stat, whatever it is. So if that's the case, you might as well only pursue women who at least look more like that thin girl next to Boogie, than a "Deadly Baddie".
YOU DESERVE A GIRLFRIEND WHO DOESN'T MAKE YOU SICK TO YOUR STOMACH WHEN YOU LOOK AT HER. And also one that doesn't steal your car.
Would you marry Deadly Baddie? I wouldn't spi--HAWK TUAH I wouldn't SPIT ON THAT THANG if she was on fire. Hawk Tuah girl's not especially good looking either, she kinda just looks *dumb* but at least you can look at her without gagging. And she might not steal your car.
Anyway... what was I even talking about? Don't associate with girls who do drugs, for starters. Even weeeeeeed. There's a misconception that "white trash" only means trailer-park, but no, don't fall for that. They can live in houses. Houses reeking of weed.
Social media outside of close friend and family networks is a red flag, too.
You know what else is a red flag? If you don't see a crucifix around her neck. That's a huge red flag.
idk what else to tell you.
Yes I do
I married Bianca in DQV. She's your tomboy childhood friend. I kinda like Flora--a kind and gentle rich girl--better just because she has blue hair, but they're both basically perfect. It's not difficult for girls to be perfect, they just have to not suck and be horrific.
The DS version added a 3rd girl, and I don't know much about her but I *think* I saw a screenshot of her saying something like "Do you think you're good enough for me?" or something to that effect. Meanwhile she's the worst-looking girl and she's got *that* attitude. She's the Deadly Baddie of Dragon Quest. She's also supposedly the *least* popular girl. And from the single line from her, I understand why. Abrasive women with ugly personalities complain that men's attraction to soft-spoken Debt-Free Virgins Without Tattoos is sexist and misogynistic. But as Monsoon once said, you can't fight nature. All interaction between the sexes must be sexist, and I think it's ack-shually misogynistic to suggest that "real women" are fat, gross and insufferable.
Oxford comma intentionally omitted.
Anyway, I'm sorry, I kinda don't really care about what I'm writing lmao. The bottom line is basically this: girls that are pleasant are a gift from God, literally. Do not uh.......... be like that dumb nerd who almost got robbed because he was talking to a girl who looks like she would try to rob you. (she was found guilty btw, 20 years, life ruined) IDIOT. What a MORON, talking to a pizza-faced trashgirl with a FACE TATTOO WHO CALLS HERSELF NOT JUST BADDIE BUT DEADLY BADDIE. He DESERVED to be robbed!
Anyway.... idk, want a Digimon update? Let's see what I've got rn... I'm not proud of how addicted I am to these things.
I'm running muh "Nature Spirits" PenZ and and muh new X rn--the SEVEN DEMON LORDS one. I figured, on top of the larger roster, it'd be kinda fun to raise demon digimon since I don't have to care too much or feel bad when they die unlike the angel digimon. And I was right. On the PenZ, I've goooot... MachGaogamon. On the X... Cherubimon(BAD) rn. It was in the movieeeee... how about that? I don't remember how it was, but I remember it was, because I remember he was a... rabbit... it's like... a rabbit.
Anyway, his peer, a biologist bunny, has brought tigers back to life, and our bunny gets the idea of searching for feather tigers in the jungle around where they're held. So he goes out with his plasma blaster and burns some jungle away on a pleasant walk. On his way back, the biologist bunny calls and says "lol they escaped" and our bunny's like -_- okay, well if I have to harm one to ensure my safety, I will. So he's walking back, and he sees a tiger, and blasts it. Then another, and BLASTS IT. And another, and another. And he realizes that at least some of them aren't real, they're the feather tigers.
The end is just him screaming and running. I like to think he made it back, he had a gun that melts jungle away.
It was pretty neato. He had visited the biologistbunny on an AI-powered flying machine that uh... I think the Chinese had left behind. The machine can likeee, answer questions and stuff and likes to talk about his honorable masters. Am I getting the area right? I don't think it was explicitly stated, but you could tell based on the area and the history it was talking about, it must have been talking about China.
Kk my neck is killing me, I'm gonna let you go. i'lgrdsergrtgsesg I'LL TTYL. pls take care of yourself. have a relaxing day. God bless fren
The wolf that tore the sentries to bits in front of the winter palace at St. Petersburg. The wolf that was killed by the invention of firearms like the great god Pan by the coming of Christ. The wolf people now say never existed, and forget all the stories. The wolf that took the baby pigs from the farmyard at noon, and children when they walked through the forest. You are Baron Isengrim.
"And I," said the Wicked Queen. "If I were to take off this mask who would I be, wise boy?"
"Lucrezia Borgia and Catherine de Medici. Morgan le Fay and all the ladies who beat the peasant children to frighten their own."
Hey fren, I hope you're well today. I'm still-- im gonna just WRITE this before I go INSANE at how fubar my website is. kk? right? Let's just freakin go. 2 stories tonight. Three Fingers aaaand... Feather Tigers.
Three Fingers is about a little kid usinglmao using like a... a 3d printer (not exactly, it's an INJECTION MOLDING MACHINE) to make Disney figures that he sells as authentic. So he's hunted by the MICKEY MAFIA. Obviously when I read that, having written hundreds and hundreds of pages about Mickey, both in the forms of various fanfictions of The Mouse, and my original book Awkward Conversations xD starring an autist named Mickey, I was very happy. It's a very short story, like idk, 5 pages or something. The MM ambushes him in his house--masked characters, the Big Baad Wolf, Captain Hook and the Wicked Queen uh... he asks them to take their masks off. So he can see if he's right about who they are, believing them to be these uh... you know, exactly as he said it, kinda combinations of various legends and histories.
They grant him his final request, and reveal that they're just fat businessmen(and 1 businesswoman) in suits.
and as they're killing him, by stuffing jelly beans up his nose and bonbons down his throat to suffocate him, he uh... actually I have no idea. Because the bonbons become jellybeans and are actually "synthetic para-resperine". Resperine is an irl medication for treating hypertension. And then it ends with the woman touching the boy's face with a red/white gloved hand with four/three fingers. You tell me what that means, I can't brain so good. The white gloves with four fingers make sense, but what would a three-fingered red glove be? That's got to be the key to understanding the ending w/ the resperine, but I just don't know. I guess they weren't killing him though-- oh, she also said "she's had good luck with it on him". So she's given the resperine to him before, and whatever it does, it's what she wants and it isn't killing him. Why him? Because he's making the fake figures? Or does it somehow prompt him to do it? Is it a COINCIDENCE that he's making his own Disney figures? He also KNEW they were after him. How did he know? If this has happened before, why doesn't he remember it? She remembers him, why not the other way around? Did she come dressed as a different character?
It was a funny story, even if the ending is confusing. He saw some other Disney character at White Castle waiting for him so he runs away lol. And he's yapping relentlessly about the histories of these toys(fake) at this woman who gives him a ride and she's like being tortured lmaooo so she buys one out of pity.
okay. uhhhhhhhh... Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz an-- you know what, I don't have any more energy. We'll do Feather Tigers next time. I'm totally spentlol. man... that's not good. Imagine being *spent* writing a few paragraphs. You know what else it is? I'm literally being driven insane by how unorganized my website is. I'm typing this, for no reason, in a txt file, which will then be grabbed by a script onto the blog page-- and it just makes *no* sense for me to be doing it like this lol ,I HAD AN IDEA of something that i wanted to do, but it's just fu--it's pointless. I'll fix everything later. right now, I'll post this, and i'll wish that you pls take care, and have a comforting day, and i'llttyl. God bless, fren
I can't figure out how i want tooooooooooooo... do anything rn. hold on, lemme put on some music, brb. kk, that's nice.
im just so tired, i never have any energy. i hope you're feeling well. im gonna take a little caffeine, 1 sec...
ok. i took about 50mg. i have these 200mg tabs, and i just bite them in half and then half again. i feel a little better now. idk how Mormons live without caffeine, it's very impressive.
what's new with you? i ha-- well before I write any more, I'm gonna go read Lesser's post, which I pre-liked, I'll brb...
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA THE OLD FAT PRIEST WITH ENERGY ENOUGH TO DO MASS. WHY NOT ME? I'm NOT OLD OR FAT, and I'm lying on my tummy like a teenage girl because I'm too pained to sit up at a desk. that's
idk-- im gonna finish reading, i'll brb again...
kk, i left a comment. a stupid comment, but a comment. i want Lesser, and Wizard, and everyone else to know I don't just LIKE their posts, I do read them. I know we're all very busy, and we all write too much, God knows we don't have enough time. but I know that *I* like when (You) read my posts, so I want (You) to know that I do read your posts, too. not just for the hell of it either, (You)r writing issss. It's good, I know it is because I enjoy it and I don't enjoy things that are bad. I'm really hoping and praying that (You) are doing well rn, and will be even better soon. and you will be.
A few weeks ago I reached out to a friend I had stopped talking to after he PISSED ME OFF last year. It's been very nice to have him to talk to again. Someone I can just vent to, and bounce ideas off of, who understaaaands me, and has a great sense of humor. Someone I can text in the middle of the night "Goofy, put your son in a dress and bring him to me IMMEDIATELY!!!" and know that when he wakes up, he'll give me the 😂 reacc i deserve. You never know how much you miss someone until they're gone. and everyone's going to go, aren't they? even if we'll see them again in a better place, life without them still gets harder.
anyway, so what? I don't focus enough on God. If I loved God more, I wouldn't need someone that makes up various insane Mickey Mouse characters with me. but he's still my friend, and it costs nothing to love and appreciate our friends. well, it doesn't cost *much*, there's worse things to be distracted by.
like writing a blog. let's start wrapping up. Uh... "The Hero As Werwolf" by Gene Wolfe is our next story. it'ssss--really really reallY REALLY good, and if I assert that "they got away in the end", it even has a happy ending :') basicallyyyyyy... humanity's branched, withhhh the "ascended" humans basically not needing to eat or take medicine anymore, they're like these physically-weak aristocrats with low-level telekinetic powers, and the old-humans, being chased out of their houses and starved because farmland's all been destroyed-- the old humans have basically gone feral. we can't read anymore, we barely talk, we hunt these new soy-humans(i'll call them soymen) for food. the story follows a human lad, and he uh... during a hunt, he meets an old man and his supple, breedable 10/10 nubile young daughter, who is READY. R.E.A.D.Y. READ.YYYYYY. for mating. It's so fucking TIME. And it's just lmao it's kinda cute because bro has no idea what's going on, he just knows he wants her to come live with him so he can bring her dead soymen to eat, and it's very uh--i'm not going to call it "animalistic", even though it is, I'm not going to use that word because he is a human. But he's the hero, as werwolf. So it's veryyy... instinctual. He's a young man, she's a young woman, it's time to follow God's command. so he visits the old man to be like "i can has daughter? :3 " and dad's like i know why you're here, you want my daughter, why wouldn't you, fucking LOOK AT HER her mom and I did GOOD. she's at that age, she's IN HEAT, I gotta get her a man before she goes fucking insane.
And our bro's a total survivorchad, and the previous suitors were like, either weak, insane, or ended up dying. So bro's got no competition. Dad notices that she *very obviously* wants our bro, so he gives her over, and he's like "thanks, we'll visit you sometimes."
So, happy ending, right? WRONG because while they're hunting one day-- btw, the girl's mute, she doesn't talk-- they kill this soyman child. but because they have telekinesis, even shortly after they die, they can move stuff around, so the kid TRAPS bro's foot in a door. He is TRAPPED, they are FUCKED, the soymen police are ON THEIR WAY. So he tells girl she has to bite his foot off so he can escape. So after he explains what she has to do, she does it. And as she's doing so, this like, info-video about the education system is playing in the background, about a girl choosing to become a nurse, and how she'll be dedicating the rest of her life to easing the suffering of others-- I'm not going to do it justice, I can't remember at all. But it's as if it was talking about *her*, you know? And it is.
The end is him feeling her warm tears washing away his blood as she frees him, and it's uh, just heartbreaking. It's freakin incredible, but it's heartbreaking. Bro's in agony having his foot chewed off, she's sobbing uncontrollably as she's trying to free her husbando by harming him, and you just pray to God that they escape. Even though they literally just killed a child for the purpose of eating him. It's rooooooooooooough, man.
I loved the story, I freaking loved it and it's my immovable headcanon that they escaped completely, got back to Dad and stayed with him until bro's stub healed up. Nothing can convince me that's not what happened. There probably weren't even any soymen police coming anyway-- they *fear* the humans, they probably just would have left them trapped to starve. OKAY? THEY ESCAPED AND LIVED TOGETHER HAPPILY EVER AFTER AS HUSBAND AND WIFE, AND THEY HAD PLENTY OF HUMAN CHILDREN.
the *world* is AMAZING--btw it might not even be on Earth anymore, but we do know that there is space-travel in it and that the soymen have colonized space. It's a bit cyberpunk, but also uh... mixed with idk, kinda mixed with our current time with buildings we'd recognize, as if they soymen ascended tomorrow. kinda like... Half Life 2 lol. i loved it, it was very nicely detailed.
anyway im gonna let you go, im tired, as you know, and I think i might be in a mood. did i depress myself? >tfw no feral waifu to free you like a fox caught in a trap, right? "Men only want one thing, and it's disgusting."
i'llttyl. pls take care of yourself.and. have a comforting day. God bless fren
I like chocolate chip cookies too much, I'm like Angelica from Rugrats with them.
Other cookies I can control myself with perfectly fine, you'll never see me eating more than 2 Oreos. But chocolate chip cookies, with a glass of cold milk? I eat half the freaking bo-- well, not that much. I'll eat uh. Idk, 6. Like, Chips-Ahoy-sized cookies, when the serving size is probably 2. What a nightmare.
I hope you're feeling well rn. My Digimon on muh Pendelum Z just evolved, idk what it is though because it's in Japanese.
Gaomon, it's a Gaomon. Neato. Uh... gimme a sec, and we'll talk, I'll brb.
Aight I'm okay, my shoulder's justt a little fucked. Like always. It's so exhausting to even be alive.
Fights tonight, that'll be fun. Starting sooonactually. My fren gave these predictions...
Sean Strickland

Quillan Salkilld
He doesn't even watch, but I have him predict fights just by looking at the face-offs, and he's pretty good at it lol. I'm going to defer to him, and I'll explain later why he was right about all of these or why an unpredictable act of God caused one to be wrong.
Anything else? Yeah, I was gonna... Fatepost lol. Fate's an interesting series. You might know more about it than I do, I don't really know that much. It's a gacha game, I think it started as aaaa visual novel. And it's basicallyyyyy... you can summon the spirits of great mythological or historical heroes, likeeee King Arthur(who is a girl now), orrrr Joan of Arc, orrr-- a bunch of people, you know. Tons and tons. Some of them are girls now. lmoai iaeogirj I don't know, it's cool though. Maybe "cool" isn't the right word. I have the mobile game, and I've played it a bit. The story's very thicc from the tutorial. They always are. You know, it's nothing WORLD-CHANGING, but it's GOOD, the writing is always very *good* in these Azn collectible-girl games, even if the stories aren't going to mind-break you. The stories aren't *bad* though, they're GOOD, they're just simple. So even though you're reading tons of delightful dialogue, if you take *too much* at once, you'll wear yourself out, like eating too many chocolate chip cookies, like that episode of Rugrats where Angelica was like a crackhead eating cookies out of container of soapy water. Anyway, I got some FATE games for the Switch, I'll yap at you about them laaater though
.
Anything eeeeeelse? Yeah, please remind me to update my Digimon page, because I'm never going to remember. I've got so much crap on my mind, my nceck is killing me, my freaking shoulder hurts, I'm freaking RAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
btw, Dragon Quest 5: Hand of the Heavenly Bride is what I'll be uh... i'll tell you about it later I guess. It's freakin phenominal. All Dragon Quest games are good, but this one's really blowing me away with how good the story is. It's AWESOME, I *love* it so far. kkk lemme wrap it up now.
Uh... a Gene Wolfe story? What came after Alien Stones... lemme see... La Befana. Thank God, it's not a long story so I don't have to wear both of us out too much. It's very simple. Alien planet. Some furry alien like an intelligent tiger or something visits his fren, who's a Brazilian guy & his family he knows from work. Guy's kids ask if he knows about Jesus, Aliencat bro says that Jesus hasn't visited his planet yet. Guy's mother tells the story of La Befana the Christmas Witch, who had an opportunity to travel with the Three Wise Men to see Baby Jesus, but didn't because she had to clean her house. So when she finally finished and went to see him, Jesus was already gone. So every year, she travels from house to house to search for Jesus, and gives presents to all the girls and boys she visits, and she's cursed to search FOREVER. "Right?" asks the little girl. "Not forever, just until tomorrow," says granma, and then you realize that it's been snowing the whole story, and there's a pregnant woman in the next door inn, who can't stay in the main building because there's no room. It's a little too heavy-handed though, because the guy's wife literally just blurts out "they're jews next door", which I don't like because it makes it WAY, WAY, WAY too obvious A, and B, it leans on the uh... boomer meme that God specifically required a jewish girl to give birth to Him. It wouldn't *necessarily* mean that, but again, it also just really makes it way too obvious what's going on, the *only* thing we really NEED to know about the girl next door is that she's pregnant. Grandma saying "just until tomorrow" is telling us the entire thing. La Befana will stop searching for Jesus tomorrow, a baby's being born tomorrow, it's Christ come to visit this new world. That's all. But it's a nice little fun story.
Anythingggggggggggggg else? No, the fights are sSTARTING I GOTTA GO! I'll ttyl, okay? pls take care of yourself, andddd have a relaxing day. God bless fren
Hey fren, I hope you're feeling well today.
Random thought. If you think your parents don't appreciate you enough, maybe try telling them about that case going on rn in Florida of the guy who murdered both of his parents. Who-- Collin Griffith, that's the guy.lmao how about that? Don't make it obvious though, just like tell them "Hey, this happened in the case today", and when they ask "What case?" tell them "That guy who murdered both of his parents", and they'll be reminded of what a good child you are lol.
But while you're doing that, try to remember to appreciate your parents more too.I can't think straight wtf is wrong with me.
I've got MMAGuru in my ear that's why. SHADDUP GURU.
Strickland vs DDP 2 this weekend. That'll be fun, right? Idk, I don't care. Sean was robbed in the first fight, but I like DDP anyway, so-- none of it matter, UFC is . it's impossible to care very much about rankings and championships in the UFC. The injustice of a fighter being robbed has no effect on my life.
I think it's an underrated card, people are saying it's THE WORST PAY-PER-VIEW IN RECENT MEMORY, but I don't think it's that bad. Maybe I'd feel differently if I was going to pay for it. I guess I would.
Anyway, uhhh... Alien Stones. Alien Stones issss the 2nd story in the Dr. Death collection, aaaaaaand it's really good.
Basically, people on a space ship--one of those really cool city-sized ones with hundreds of crew members, you know? I freaking love those ones--they encounter another ship in the distance that's very strange. Humans have spread out across the galaxy for a long time, so it's not *too* weird that they've never seen a ship like this before, and its design seems to make some human sense, but it's just a strange ship. Soooo they launch some parties to go check it out. When they get there, they can't find the crew. Like it's abandoned. The Captain notes that it's possible they're just hiding, noting how difficult it'd for their own crew to be found in their gigantic ship if they didn't want to be found. There's an Empath girl with him, who he's stupidly in love with. It's like, her job to understand the enemy's feels, you know? Like Ender :')
But what's really cool is the ship scares the shit out of her. As she's searching around it w/ Cap, the description of what she's going through, how she's coping with everything, is veryyyy... idk, I just appreciate it, it makes the story kinda creepy. A *little*, but not VERY, you know, there's dozens of friendly allies all over the place exploring the ship, but it IS very VAST, and EMPTY. Meanwhile, Cap just lol he just likes the ship and admires its design, even though it's pretty strange and inhuman and like, like *barren*, kinda like idk, high-tech brutalism. He likes it because he's basically an autistic asshole, which he has to be in order to be the captain of a space ship. It kinda highlights the differences between men and women. Cap actually needs to mentally recite Scripture to himself to stop from lusting after Empathgirl, who is in fact married.
Aaaand her husband goes missing on the strange ship. Long story short, he arrived before anyone else and had the idea of breaking something to get the attention of the mystery-crew. And the crew, which are probably some kind of robots or androids, killed him for it. Cap had the reverse idea when they were searching for him: he found what husbando had broken and *fixed* it to get the mystery-crew's attention. A *something* disguised as husbando came and was pretty chill but told them to pls leave. He told Empathgirl "I know what you think, but I'm not your husband". There were some interesting *communication issues* between them, you know-- not knowing the meanings of certain words, but I don't feel like thinking too hard about it rn. Oh and, when Cap was repairing the panel on the ship, he found the remains of husbando.
The story ends w/ them going back to their own ship, not quite sure how to proceed, with Empathgirl grieving and kinda wondering if husbando was ever really REAL at all, because she felt like she couldn't even remember him and because she and him were in a single-person cabin together instead of something for couples. And there is a uh... like for instance, there *are* fake-people "on" the ship, as simulations(some people think they're all really simulations for someone else's training), for the purposes of training and stuff, and Empathgirl thinks that they're using time-travel to train captains under *themselves*, and it ends pretty uh... I really like the ending. Captain assured her that her husband had been real, and that he himself had trained under a real man, who was something like--idr, something like, "a salty bastard but generally knew what he was doing." and that description is *perfect* because it's like he's describing himself. Maybe he really DID train under himself from the future. But it doesn't really matter, because he BECAME *whoever it was* who trained him, you know? Because now HE's a salty bastard who generally knows what he's doing.
It's posssssible that they're simulatons, but you know, I don't really care about questions like that lol, it's just useless solipsism. But it is cool that it's a possibility in the story, since they do train ship captains using sims.
Anyway, the story was freakin fantastic, that's all. DAS ALL.
Anything else? Uhhhh... pshhhhh. Fate? lol. I got Fate/Samurai Remnant. but actually, let's talk about Fate later, ok? I've gotta agonize over how bad my website looks. I'll ttyl. pls take care of yourself, aaaandhave a good one. God bless fren
Hey, I hope you're feeling well. Wanna... let me talk at you about UFC aaaand maybe a Gene Wolfe story aaaaaand... idk, vidya. So lemme just get Gemini to generate a pic of a cute girl and we'll get started... there we go.
Uhhhh...
Iz Izzy washed? Idk, you tell me. I've heard people say he looked INCREDIBLE in this fight. I didn't really see it. I don't actually think he won the first round. All the judges gave it to him, but the judges also said Hamdy Abdelwahab beat Jamal Pogues, when he didn't. If Izzy won r1, which I'm not granting, it was *BARELY*, and then he got KO'd in the next, so it's just not really a good cope to me. "INCREDIBLE"? No, I'M SORRY. You know what's a good "He Looked Incredible Before He Got His Ass Kicked" cope? Robert Whittaker actually was beating Dricus in the first round until Dricus took him down at the end. *That's* a good example of uh... HLICHGHAK cope. Volkanovski vs Topuria? Volk took r1 without question. THAT's good HLICHGHAK cope. Uhh... Cejudo vs Merablol. Cejudo took r1! THAT'S good HLICHGHAK cope. Izzy possibly *barely* squeaking out a round isn't good cope.
Anyway, the... meh.Whatever. Let's just skip this. Uh... Bigg Scary Russian Man finally got a win again, so that's cool. Pavlovich will Rise Again. aaand... Shara bullet failed me, rly rly disappointing that Dagestani man decided not to wrestle the kickboxer. Actually another Dagi lost on the card too, to a Brazilian. People are saying it's the end of Dagestani Supremacy. Might be a little too soon to say that(it is) THAT'S ENOUGH UFC TALK
Uhh...
But then some of the characters start coming out of the book and talking to the kid. Aaaand it's kinda hinted that it's not just his(your) imagination. Like one of his aunts MIGHT have seen Dr. Death. At one point, you're at a party and a strange girl says something like it's her 3rd time uh... idr, making the trip or something like that. And she asks you if you mind her pretending that you're real. And now that I'm thinking of it, I think he sees something at the party from the book that he hadn't even gotten to yet, but that just might be *my* imagination now...
It's really cool, weird stuff. Anyway, uh... something kiiiinda sad and scary happens, and the kid's--You're--upset that he's almost done reading the book. And he's talking to Dr. Death about it, who treats his role in the book like an actor's role or something
"I don't want it to end. You'll be killed at the end."
"And you don't want to lose me? That's touching."
"You will, won't you? You'll burn up in the fire and Captain Ransom will go away and leave Talar."
Dr. Death smiles. "But if you start the book again we'll all be back. Even Golo and the bull-man."
"Honest?"
"Certainly." He stands up and tousles you hair. "It's the same with you, Tackie. You're too young to realize it yet, but it's the same with you."
.
.
cool, right? As if uh... idk. As if that Dr. Death, or that mysterious girl, or God was reading a book and You're a character in it. "It's the same with you" really elevates that message to something special.
You know, "You can always read the book from the start! :D " is kinda a lol it's kinda a simple moral that you'd see idk, in any simple book. I'm not saying "You're ALSO like a book character :^) " is ROCKET SCIENCE, I just think it adds a little extra OOMPH, especially with the little hints peppered throughout the story, and Wolfe's Catholicism. It's nice too that it doesn't DEVALUE Tackie(you)'re life, either. That's a real issue with these kinds of topics. It's like a solipsist's or a nihilist's goon material, the thought of being *JUST* a character in a book, but in Wolfe's world, you being a character in a story doesn't change anything at all, because there's a Librarian and Author over all of it. Your life remains exactly as valuable, maybe even moreso because it can be enjoyed by readers in other dimensions.
Anyway. I'mtoo tired. i feel like imoiazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZzzzz. that's it. uh... idk, Alien Stones next time.
ill ttyl pls ta.kre care of yourself. aaaaand have a . relaxing day. God bless, fren.
hey, I hope you're feeling well today.
Me? I'm a little down rn actually, I just read a really sad story. "The Death of Dr. Island" I HATED it. I mean, it was really, really good, but I still hated it, very sad ending. Basically these 3 teens are on an artificial island for therapy, a 14yo boy who got his brain--you know, they severed something in it because he was having seizures, now he's all fucked up and likes to start fires and cause havoc and stuff. You know, a little shit. There's an older boy/young man who's homicidal and beats the everloving shit out of him for trying to take some of his fish, and there's a 19yo girl who just shuts down sometimes. Nicholas doesn't think she's sick, and he might be right.
The writing's just fantastic. The island fucking sucks. It talks to them. At first you think it's kinda like a caring entity, maybe like how a good human doctor would be. But it'ssss not. It's there to give them treatment for their disorders. And it's not nice about it. And it's not caring about it. It's programmed to simulate SOCIETY for them, and at one part for an unknown reason, the girl says she believes the older guy is more important than them. We don't really know why. But we do know she was right, because the end has the island allowing him to kill her, because she was suicidal anyway, and he was "very important", and allowing him to act out his fantasy of killing her made him realize he didn't enjoy killing.
And it was just -- I felt as SEETHING and miserable about it as the young boy did, and he starts chimping out, trying to destroy the island, almost succeeds in escaping, gets into an argument with the island for its lack of humanity. But the island doesn't care.
"Her prognosis was bad; she really wanted only death, and this was the death I chose for her. You could call it the death of Dr. Island, a death that will help someone else. Now you are alone, but soon there will be more patients in this segment, and you will help them, too--if you can--and perhaps they will help you."
It puts him into a canatonic state-- and the other half of "him" from his surgery takes over, and is just kinda, dumb and mute and subservient to the island, and nods in agreement to help the next patients that come in.
Do you understand? It's a uh... the therapy is socialization. But it's not individual therapy.
"He was frightened by women; now he knows that they are really very weak, and he has acted upon certain fantasies and finds them bitter."
There's hints that he's very wealthy and the island confirms his IQ is actually 210. Which is why the island prioritizes him over the younger boy and the girl. Maybe in a kinder timeline, it could have cured the girl's depression and the younger boy's anti-social tend--well, I guess it *did* now actually... now he'll make a perfect wagie.
The reason for such extreme therapy is that *something* has happened, and it's more important now than ever that very intelligent humans are able to function in society and be productive. The island's response to the boy complaining that the girl's parents were abusive and belonged there instead of her was "They were functioning. They bought and sold; they worked, and paid their taxes--" And she says it wouldn't have mattered if she was away from them anyway, since they were inside of her. She had no hope for herself at all, and it HURTS because she obviously comforted the boy and he liked her.
Very sad story, that's all. The three of them had fashioned a bit of a ... society of their own. The older boy had even been alone with the girl before younbro showed up, and hadn't killed her, and even fed her. So it makes you wonder if the island pushed him into it(it totally did, or at least allowed him to do it when it could have stopped him). He taught the younger boy to fish eventually after he started being submissive to him.
And when youngbro realized girl liked the older one, he sadly set them up, hoping to make her happy. When he left them alone, she was killed. The next day, older guy is allowed to leave the island for a temporary hospital. Dr. Island doesn't think he'll have to stay there long. Presumably now that he's not afraid of half the population and doesn't want to kill anyone else, he can use that brain of his for the advancement of humanity. I wonder how he'll cope with what he did to her? Youngbro found him praying earlier for over an hour, but was unsure of who he was praying to. We learn he's Brazilian so there's actually a relatively strong chance he's praying to God.
When youngbro finds girl's body--at the very least probably killed instantly by a plasma cutter oldbro been using to start fires--he loses his shit and begins arguing with the island. But it'd have none of it. "I told you that I would treat you as society will when you are released, that that is my nature. After that, did you still believe all I told you?"
"Her prognosis was bad; she really wanted only death, and this was the death I chose for her. You could call it the death of Dr. Island, a death that will help someone else. Now you are alone, but soon there will be more patients in this segment, and you will help them, too--if you can--and perhaps they will help you."
It's really heartbreaking the more I think about it. When he leaves the two of them alone, probably, like me, just thinking they were going to have sex he said to her:
"'I'll see you in the morning. All right?'
Her head moved a fraction of a centimeter."
Did she know she was going to die?
I have to cope with believing the girl's in a better place, and that the boy's original self will be too after his body dies. And it's a good cope, because just like IRL, God is in Gene Wolfe's stories, even sometimes named as Christ. It's rarely *part of* the story, but New Sun has a wiiildly cool afterlife and La Befana has Christ being born on an alien planet. But for Dr. Island, I just have to imagine that if I asked Wolfe "Are they going to be OK?" he'd say "Of course." Rebirth/resurrection/resetting is a pretty common theme in his stories.
Anyway... was there anything else? Yeah actually, I was going to tell you about ALL of the stories I read, but how about I just do one per post? Next time we can go over... The Island of Dr. Death, which is much different and not as sad, thennnn... Alien Stones, which was freakin AWESOME. Aaaaand... The Hero As Werwolf, which was reeeeeally reeeeeeeeeeeeeeallyyyyyyy good but kinda bittersweet... and La Befana, which was a nice and short one, no sads, aaand... Three Fingers, which I... don't *quite* understandlol, I have to read it again or sssomething, but it was still rly funny and cool.
Ummmm... Gene Wolfe was just a great writer, that's all. I freaking don't like sad stories, and The Death of Dr. Island was a sad story. But it was really good. idk though, I-- it hurts lol. I really don't like being sad. Do you?
I think that's all I have rn. I'lllll-- oh, I beat Dragon Quest 2 for the first time in my life. How about that? Pretty cool, right?
You know what else? I SHARPENED my pocket knife on a sharpening stone and it's razor sharp again. Pretty cool, right?
kk that's it. i've been feeling kinda sick the last few days. pls pray for me if you have the time. and I'll ttyl. pls take care, have a happy day. God bless fren
Idk what she's saying, I asked for "didn't ask", but I'm not going to bother to check it. I liek Gemini's image generation.
It almost makes up for it being really really bad at giving answers.
Really really really bad. Gemini is actually so "stupid" compared to Perplexity, that I don't feel safe using it. It gives me a weird "worried" feeling that I've never experienced dealing with technology, it's like a total lack of faith. Nothing really serious, but half the answers it gives me are just not only wrong, but wrong in a way that they seem like they make sense.
I asked it how to get to the Dragon's Horns in DQ2, and it told me to "sail north of Tantegel castle until you reach the whirlpool and then go into it."
That sounds right? Right? In the game, an NPC *in Tantegel* even says something like "goo to the North Dragon's Horns", so obviously it's somewhere up North.
But no, the Dragon's Horns are twin towers, off to the *West* of Tantegel, and you can just climb them. There's no fucking whirlpool to sail into, that's just something Gemini made up. THERE IS *NO* WHIRLPOOL.
And it'll give me those kinds of answers for basically *anything*. Something that seems right, and I have to double-check to find out that it isn't right at all. If I were asking it important questions, what would I do? It's really bad, I mean that. For very-very simple things, idk I *guess* it's not so bad, but the thing is, how can I even really trust it for anything?
If you can't tell me where the Dragon's Horns are in DQ2-- not only that but you literally *make something up* as an answer, like you're a fucking kid in elementary school telling me how to catch Mew behind the truck, how can you be trusted to tell me *anything* about anything worth asking?
But you know why I'll suck it up and cope with it? Because Perplexity doesn't have a wake-up phrase like "OK Google" lmao. And I guess it's a little easier for blogbait to just say "generate a pic of a cute girl" instead of searching for one like a lunatic.
Perplexity's image generation compared to Gemini's is as bad as Gemini's answers are to Perplexity's. And both of them want money.
What a pain.
I got a bunch of Gene Wolfe books I have to put on my kindle. Uhhh... hey, have you read Book of the New Sun yet? I've asked you to like a million times, idk why you haven't yet. I get that you're busy, but just read it on the toilet.
I think I'll starttt... Fifth Head of Cerberus when I'm finished with Art of the Deal. I found myself in a really Wolfey mood, but I don't want to spend months re-reading BOTNS for the ...4th time or something. I need to wait another year or something so I can forget everything that happens. How can I read it now, knowing what happens with Valeria, who is bestgirl?
I actually did want to refresh my memory of Valeria, so I just asked Gemini, and it gave me a biography of her that was so thoroughly wrong that it made me remember what I wanted, so I guess that's kinda useful.
Like the Dragon's Horns Whirlpool, just completely made-up #misinformation like "she was held captive in the House Absolute." No she wasn't. She WASN'T EVEN THERE, let alone being held captive there.
I think I'm hungry. I'm gonna grab some-- oatmeal. brb.
kk that was yummy.
Uh... New Sun is really good, though. I've never read Jack Vance's "Tales of the Dying Earth", idk if I ever will tbh. I guess I can try it, but I suspect that Wolfe really spoiled me. Science fiction is normally kinda gay and nihilistic and it's not very enjoyable for me anymore. Like I can still probably enjoy a short story by Lovecraft, but what an entire novel?
New Sun having a kind of underlying--for lack of a better word, a sort of underlying Christianity to it really made it easy to enjoy. Like it's just really EASY to enjoy, it's hard to stop reading once you start. It might be in the "dying earth" genre, but it's not uh...... it's not about dying, it's about... well, I can't really say without spoiling it. But it's not uh, it's not a doomer book. It's a bloomer book. Still, maybe if Dying Earth isn't too long I'llllllltry it.
I say that, but even as I type this I realize what a waste of time it'd be. No I can't say that for certain. W-- ...........hm. idk. whatever.
I hate books. I hate writers. Especially sci-fi writers. They're such disgusting, dumb losers. I was browsing random wiki articles related to Dying Earth, and I saw some author criticizing Tolkien's work as like "Winnie the Pooh", because of its...... morality, basically. Meanwhile his own book is just lesser sword-and-sorcery fantasyslop with none of the redeeming qualities of Lord of the Rings. I'm not just being salty about his Tolkien comment, although I *am* salty, it's just uh... the truth. Like it's just fucking slop. A story about a self-hating white(literally) guy who has a sword that eats people's souls? I'm supposed to spend *my* time reading that? You should pay me to read that. This is the problem with so many anti-religious authors, there's an underlying totally-boring pointlessness where, the longer the story drags on, the more inescapable it is. Maybe I'm being too hard, I probably am, but if you're going to compare someone else's work to Winnie the Pooh as if that's even a bad thing, why don't you write something that doesn't just sound like a teenage boy's edgy fantasy. Fucking dork loser. All of these Tolkien critics try to come at him while they just write SLOP, they don't have it IN them to write what he did because while he was filled with the Holy Spirit, they're just filled with shit. You know what's cool? You know what's amazing? You know what excites the heart and mind, and is very much "Winnie the Pooh"? The SHIRE. You know what's dumb gross slop for dumb gross people? Martin's "brown water"
Was there anything else you wanted to talk about?
(written yesterday) No UFC today, right? Very miserable. But there's uh... what, a PFL fight later I think. One of the Dagestanis(Nurmagomedov) vs some Irish guy(Paul Hughes), that'll be good. It's really-- I don't dislike the Dagestanis at all, I like them and often root for them, but their fans man lmfao. Just AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. But you know, I wish Christian fans were that loyal to Christian fighters. I guess they often are depending on your(my) definition. (the fight ended up being rly good, decision for Nurmagomedov, and Khabib said he loved Ireland afterwords, it was vry wholesome)
Speaking of definitions, s-- ah, this is perfect actually
Speaking of definitions, some CLOWN was arguing with me in a livechat toda-- actually nevermind lol. Literally just the same guy that I wrote about days ago, trying to tell me that Christians are "woke" again. "Your definition of 'woke' is too loose for me" had him flailing, jumping from one thing to another, throwing WHATEVER he could, DEPERATELY PRAYING TO LOGIC AND REASON that SOMETHING would stick
"EVANGELICALS LIKE TO VIRTUE SIGNAL, JUST LIKE WOKIES"
"Literally everyone likes to virtue signal."
"REMEMBER THE SATANIC PANIC?"
"Didn't exist. Satanism has always been unpopular, as it should be. The period marketed as the 'Satanic Panic' was not any different than any other time."
He has to be at least 40 if he's saying "wokies" and kvetching about the "Satanic Panic". In hindsight I could or should have just said "the Evangelicals were right", that'd be true too. And it'd be way less troublesome to defend than saying "it's not real", even though it's not, since someone like that would triumphantly point out that it's "well documented", behold all these gay social critic "experts" asserting that Christians are overreacting.
"The Evangelicals were right" just cuts to the heart of the issue. I can't believe I'm DEFENDING Evangelicals. Would they ever say "Catholics were right"? No, they'd just say we're not real Christians and apologize for us.
You know what, there was a Satanic Panic after all, the Evangelicals totally overreacted to stuff like Dungeons and Dragons FUCK them, fucking FASCISTS, and uh-- no seriously they were right though, even about DnD. And also the ritualized murders, obviously.
But uh yeah, I guess they're "just like wokies" for... opposing baby-murder and pornography, because they... virtue-signal... libertarians and their consequences have been a disaster for American society, I really--. idk, I have a "Gen X" page idea, but it's kinda mean and I don't actual-- ehhhhhh. And obviously it's not a generation issue anyway, so it'd be a waste of time to write. Okay, good, I'm not going to then.
You know what isn't a waste of time? Exercise. I kinda pushed myself tonight for the first time in months, and it felt good. I really really need to get back into it. It's not good to be too comfortable. It's a false comfort, when you're not working out. You're slowwwwly allowing your body to gett weaker so issues like back pain can start to sneak up on you, and you won't be strong enough to cope with it. I want to get back into that energy where if you're bored, you'll just drop to the ground and do some push-ups. It's a different way of living, when you're exercise-minded. And it's also rly fun to look at yourself in the mirror. As long as you don't get too full of yourself.
ANything else?...probably. I'm always forgeting something. I'll ttyl though. Oh-- I started reading a little Confederacy of Dunces. It's. Well, it *is* funny, but I have issues with it aand idk if IFORGET IT
FORGETIT
i'll ttyl, pls take care of yourself. Have a comforting day. God bless, fren.
heyhey
I hope you're feeling okay
me? uhhhhhhhhh... good i think. my sleep schedule's a little inhuman. but i don't really care. i can't.
lemme jump into the main topic, then i wanna kvetch about Dragon Quest 2.
I saw a DONUT OPERATOR video the other day, and I hated it.
What was it?
Well, it was some Female Pastor uh... arguing with cops because they arrested some guy who was hiding in the church. Everything about it sucked, but lemme start with my hottest take: Donut Operator is a FAGGOT.
Why? Well, it's like this... the Female Pastor was under the impression that the police had no legal right to arrest someone in the church, she thought they had to wait for her. Of course that's wrong, but it's not an UNHEARD OF idea, is it? It's very common for people to have misunderstandings of uh-- how laws apply to religious organizations.
But Soynut Operator's just like "HURRRR, WHAT DOES SHE THINK, THERE'S A MAGICAL FORCEFIELD AROUND DA CHURCH? HYUCK HYUCK HYUCK, I'D BREAK DA DOORS DOWN!!"
she *told* you what she thinks, you retarded zogbot, she just doesn't understand the police have the right to go into the church to arrest someone without her. She doesn't understand the law, she doesn't "THINK DERRRS AH MAGICAL FORCEFIEEELD"
it's also just really, really gay to fantasize about destroying church property, I don't care if it's a gay Protestant church with a Female Pastor. "AHHD BBBREAAAAK DEM DURS DOOOOOWN" Or you could just like, open them, like a normal person. There's not a magical forcefield you need to break through, you can just open them. Worthless faggot pig.
I'mlmao I'm being too harsh, but it was a very uh, surprisingly disrespectful reaction from him. He was way too upset at the dumb Female Pastor being dumb, and it uh-- had an anti-Christian vibe to it, idk.
Sure, she was dumb and she's not a real pastor. women cannot be pastors, but uh, so what? It was literally a pointless argument, they'd already made the arrest anyway.
Anyway, in the comment section, some poor fuck said something like "I'm a Christian, I promise we're not all like this" and that blew my mind. Why would you say that? As if it needs to be said. WE are the Default Character if you live almost anywhere worth living, most of your neighbors are at LEAST nominally Christian. What an INSANE thing to say "W-we're not all like this!" as if we're some kind of fringe cult no one's ever heard of that just sprung up this year, instead of the largest and most prolific religion on the planet with centuries of history all across the world. You treacherous soyjak, don't fucking be like a Pick-Me Christian with this desperate apologism because 1 "Pastor"(female) was a stupid bitch in a video.
...Maybe I'm being too harsh on him, it could have been like... a teenagerlmao. In fact, it probably WAS, so that's. Kinda excusable I *guess*. I would have never said something like that, but you know what? I wasn't raised ENTIRELY online. In his life, he probably feels like he DOES have to say "We're not all like this" because everywhere he goes on the Internet, which is his life, is infested with atheist redditors who are constantly complaining about Christianity. Irreligious trauma is probably actually real.
Anywaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay-- that's all. Also, not for anything, but I hate how when Donut Operator is shilling some kind of "man product" he always has to have little euphemisms for genitals. "DEEZE LUMBERJACK-WIPES WILL MAKE UR TWIG AND BERRIES SMELL LIKE PINE TREES. DEY'LL MAKE UR BANANA AND CHERRIES TASTE DELICIOUS, IT'LL HAVE UR PICKLE AND WALNUTS FEELIN' MINTY FRESH!" Whatever, uh, his videos are mostly good though.
Since I'm complaining about YouTubers Who Disappoint Me, I watched a Wendigoon video and within 5 minutes he's randomly talking about "Gay Conversion Therapy" totally out of nowhere, and it's-- I lmAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. HAAAAAAAAAAAAA.
That's another post probably. It's just a very basic-bitch kinda thing to complain about. People deciding they want to try to have some control or responsibility over their sexuality is treated by 100IQ people as people being thrown into concentration camps. There's an incredible article called "Surviving Gay...Barely" and if you search for it on Google, you'll first be fed some article about """""surviving""""" gay conversion therapy, where the author was not actually in any danger. On the other hand "Surviving Gay...Barely" is an extremely graphic story about the mental and physical consequences of living a gay club lifestyle where the author literally does almost fucking die, and his story is not unique. What if *that* came to people's mind with the same speed and frequency that "gay conversion therapy is mean >:( " does? Idk, it might be worth thinking about. Imagine thinking, though, that's rough. It's way easier to just uh, define our actions as "immutable" and ignore any problems that might stem from them and just say it's immoral to deny our desires. That way you can just feel good, all the time, and live forever and be invincible.
I'm being too harsh again, I literally have watched 1 Wendigoon video in the past and 5 minutes of this one. I'm completely right about this, but uh-- I'm sure he's a great guy overall.
I'm just in a critcal mood. A MOIST crit-- I'm kidding, I am not going to talk about Moist Critikal claiming that you can choose your gender like choosing a sports team. He already made his appearance in HP Longbottom. Fucking absolute peabrain retard. Imagine losing an argument to Sneako. And he did lose. I love that he tried to cope about it later "OOOOHHHH SNEAKO BELIEVES IN CHILD MARRIAGE!!!" as if that's actually worse than mutilating children's genitals and turning their entire lives into a fucking unwinnable roleplaying game.
sry, I'm . I don't like moistcriergitalkalllalal-- idk if I ever told you that, I don't like him at all. i've definitely written about this before-- because liek the first video of his I ever saw, he was complaining about the PogChamp guy, and wouldn't say his name because he was a "garbage human", and no-matter what PogChamp guy did, I knew he didn't deserve to be spoken about like that(i was right), that's just a batshit insane kind of thing to do to someone, to try to fucking unperson them, that's just really gay feminine Communist nonsense. YOU are the garbage human, faggot, and I wi
Let's just wrap it up.
I promised Trumpposting, and even got an UNFOLLOW for it. >:( I really don't deserve this. Uhh... idk. It's hard. We've(you and I) learned so much about how the world works since 2016. How can we possibly feel as hopeful as we did back then? Hopeful specifically in the Donald I mean. It's impossible, we KNOW who his donors are. But all those Things That You And I Know About That I'm Not Going To Write About have been going on for longer than we've been alive, so--what's reallylmao. what's really... what NEEDS to change anyway? Yeah, it'd be really nice to be able to easily afford to have kids and own land. I wonder if the Donald is going to do anything about that... I really haven't been paying attention to him lmao. Instead I've been reading Art of the Deal and absolutely loving it. I'm on the last chapter I think, I just finished reading about how NYC spent 6 years failing to renovate an iceskating rink, and Trump did it for them in 4 months. For free. Isn't that something? 4 months to do something the mighty New York City couldn't do in 6 years (and was asking an additional 2 years for).
Very high-energy man. It's actually a veeeerrrryyyyyyyyyy fun book, too. The DEALS he makes. The BUILDINGS he builds. The--well that's pretty much it actually, it's a book about buying property and building buildings. There's some moar stuff, like his side-quest of owning a football team. But uhhhh-- mostly dealsssss,DEAAALSSSSS
DEALS
DEALS DEALS DEALS
Imagine yourself right now dedicating the next 4 months to overseeing idk, some project in your town. A new park or something. You're taking it all on to your own shoulders. And you do it, you make this great new park that everyone loves. Your town couldn't do it, they were totally incompetent, they were wasting all of your neighbors' tax dollars on it. So you did it.
It's very, very, very easy to ... not appreciate just how *good* of an action something like that really is. You could even be a complete turbo-autistic freak and cynically dismiss it as done purely for positive press. It doesn't change that the park is built.
Anyway, I'm kinda rambling now. I can'-- I'm gonna go lol. instead of another stupid blog post, I'll try to write some stupid story next time.
pls take care of yourself. and have a relaxing day. God bless fren.
Hey fren, I hope you're well today.
Gimme a sec, I'm freakin dying...
kk that's a little better. My monitor was a little too low. And when I stood up to raise it, a magical spike appeared in my sock to stab me, and of course it disappeared when I took my sock off, and will reappear when I put it back on, so I'm just wearing 1 sock now.
Um... psh. Let's see... First thing's first, the Grueberpedia is started. It'll be uh, here for now as I get all the content sorted.
What else? nothing, let's just talk about razors lol
Something terrible happened to me. I *wasted money* on something that I gaslit myself into believing wasn't completely useless. An adjustable safety razor.
You know how with uh... electric razors, you can use different guards to adjust the length of hair you're left with? So say, instead of turning yourself as a baby-faced femboy, you can leave a little stubble behind?
That's what I *wanted* with a manual razor, just because I have this autistic "RETVRN TO TRADITION" mindset of preferring uh, non-electric things. You know, because when The Happening happens, we won't have electricity, right? Obviously I won't just be killed immediately like everyone else, I'll be a main character, and I'll have to shave sometimes for all of the survivors(female) who I'll be running into, who will all want to repopulate the human race with me.
That's what I wanted.
And it's what I FOOLED myself into believing adjustable razors are. But of course they're not.
As I was looking into buying one, the back of my mind was screaming at me "if this isn't like an electric razor where the blades are acting like scissors which allow them to cut hair without pressing against the skin, how the hell does it possibly work? 'Blade exposure'? 'Aggression'? What are you TALKING about? A blade is touching your skin no matter what! So what do you MEAN it can leave stubble?"
But GEMINI ASSURED ME that "it can leave stubble." And yeah, it's kiiiiinda true lol but uh... idk, I guess it was just a miscommunication.
I was hoping that the stubble being left behind was *on purpose* lmao, you know, consistent like with an electric razor w/ a guard, that SOMEHOW I just couldn't wrap my head around the alien technology that allowed it to function without making full-contact with your skin. Because of course, if it's touching your skin, it's taking *all* the hair, and the only stubble it's leaving behind are the random hairs that you go over again to get rid of.
As soon as I took it out of the box, I knew I had bamboozled myself. It was INDEED just a normal razor lmao. The "lowest aggression" setting was literally just the same as my old razor. No matter what, it's going to be touching your skin, just at different angles that make it uh... more or less difficult to cut with.
I'm a total idiot, right? Truuuue, BUT:
I did at least discover the glory of HIGH AGGRESSION >:)
You see, I finally realize that I'm *different*. I'm built different. I am in an elite class of men who are smart enough, and have big enough dicks, to be able to gently rub a blade against their skin without peeling themselves like a fucking potato.
I should have been using higher-aggression razors, or even just straight razors, my entire life. It's waaaaaay easier to cut with than a low-aggression setting, which is what I believe *all* non-adjustable razors probably are at.
I'm not saying safety razors aren't good, they ARE, it's just that the same men who can't use straight razors also can't use safety razors, they can't use *anything* because they either have the most delicate girl skin conceivable, which I don't believe, or they're just TOO DUMB to not cut themselves, like a retarded kid who pets a dog too hard and gets his hand chomped.
Anyway. So now what? "Muh stubble." I gotta have MUH STUBBLE.
I think I'll just either cope with my electric clippers like a person with a healthy brain would, or get better with the nice little NIPPON STEEL scissors I have.
You know, there actually IS a ... kinda manual razor-scissors that work like an electric razor. They make them for dogs :') I wouldn't really trust them though. The steel probably isn't folded 200 times.
But it's also a real antique barber tool!...which we don't need anymore because we have electricity... Hm.
Anyway, it's best not to be too obsessed with how you look anyway. Remember in Perelandra, when the Devil gave the woman a mirror? Am I remembering that right? Either a mirror or something for her to see her reflection. The more you're focusing on yourself, the less you're focusing on better things. Like God.
When confronted by painful """""whataboutism""""", people love to say "Erm, we can care about more than one thing at a time" but it's just not true. Also the people who say that probably love to complain(rightfully so) about extreme demands for multi-tasking at work, and cite studies showing how pitifully humans are actually capable of multitasking. Until the pesky "WHAT ABOUT this other thing that's actually way, way more important than whatever it is you're focusing on now?" comes knocking. Then we can "care" about more than one thing at a time.
Anything else? Yeah, I just noticed my cpu fan is stuck. 1 sec...
okay. lol i wonder how long it was like that, I know I made sure it was running when I put it in the other day. Hm. Someone--or some thing--went into my computer and pushed the fan's power cable into its blade. Spooky stuff.
Zzzzzzz uhhhh... Digimon? lol. I've got a 20th coming today, soooo I can... trade with it. Exciting, right? Did you know they actually made a "revival" version of the 20th, with some improvements like the Digimon not pooping as often? That should have just been the way *all* new ones came out, but I think it was just a special edition, and they're still making the fast-pooping ones for some whatever insane reason. idr but I think I read that in the ORIGINAL ones they didn't poop as often. Isn't that crazy? An anniversary edition where something's worse than it was in the original. Many such cases! Ahhh, they're still great though. Come on man, 100+ Digimon? THAT'S SO MANY.
I started playinggg... one of the DS games. It's... ...it's not bad, it's just that uh... well, I'll talk about it another time.
I feeeeeeeel... a little tired. im gonna go. i'l'l'l'l'l'l'lll ttyl. pls take care of yourself. and. have a good, relaxing day. God bless fren
I hurt my hand from clapping too much, because a ring on my other hand was slamming into my palm and now it's black and blue
but hello fren, I hope you're well today. UFC311's over. wanna talk about that? and maybe uhh... idk, other stuff? maybe we'll get into pornography-defenders lol.
but first, I took some notes during the
>Tapir(Tagir lmao) barely squeaks out a decision against an unranked fighter via control time, now calling for a title shot. Atriocus. GG, though
>Ricky walks out to Jesus Walks, COME ON RICKYYYYYYY
terrible commentary. Ricky noooooooo --total buuuullshit scoring, 30-27 is bbbbuuuuullsheeeeeeeit. At least I got the pick right lol
>Nakamura Gafurov, the Japanese national wrestling champion, decides not to wrestle and costs me my pick. DISHONORABUUUUU!!!
>Ailin Perez wins and has another victory twerk. She has a nice ass but that face is ruff, and it really goes to show the importance of face, because I don't care how nice her ass is, I hate looking at her.
>Grant Dawson can do whatever he wants with another man and he proves it once again.
>Bogdan Bogged Billy Elekana LOL literally saved by the bell in the first from a submission and went on to BOG BOG BOG, you love to see it!
>Azamat ftw baybaaaaay! Lanklets can't do SHEEEEEEIT against wrastlers.
>Pretentious femboy Payton "I would fight Jesus" Talbot 30-26'd by a 38 year old man. The "U.S.A.!" chants for him were so gross lmao. It's wrong of me, but I rly don't like him, so this fraud check kinda made my night.
>I BELIEVE Kevin Holland can beat anyone. but lol. DeRitter subbed him in r1. So. :') I got my pick wrong. To be fair to myself(cope) this wasn't a serious pick anyway, although I do stand by Kevin Holland beating anyone in the world, if he feels like it.
Jailton Almeida, who I'm pretty sure isn't even 30 but has the face of a 45 year old man, roid raged himself to another victory, and I can only cope. At Least I Got My Pick Right.
Jiri Prochazka!!!!!!!! HE DID IIIIITTTTTTT, I'm such a retard for picking against him, everyone GASLIT me into thinking he was shit, but he pieced Jamahal up. Very good fight, Hill was scaaaary out there, but Jiri's movement was just too autistic and beautiful.
Merab broke us into a separate timeline and everything feels lighter now. I'm very happy. Not only did he give Umar Nurungriugneriugn-medov his first loss, he did so with a lot of good emoting. Very high-energy performance. "Rly happy I was wrong" is the story of the night. Umar did very well, but Merab's cardio is too much even for a Dagestani. 😌 Umar, an ungracious loser, COPED, but the decision was right. Cutting someone's eyebrow doesn't automatically win you a fight.
Buuuuut Islam still subbed Moicano, bringing us back to reality. My cope being, Moicano went in with a dislocated shoulder, and at least he knocked Islam down once.
Good fights :')
Someone in a chat said "USA been taking Ls today man wtf" what a fucking retard, something's really annoying about that to me. The chants of "USA!" for fighters who just happen to be from the US, is soooo duuuuuuuumb. Half the fucking organization is Americans, the other half are Brazilians. A couple Dagestanis, some Azns, but that's pretty much it. And all of the Americans come from different states and backgrounds. None of these people are like hand-picked by their nation to represent them, like in other(real) sports. The USA didn't "take an L" because a gay atheist who lives here lost lol that's silly.
Anyway that's it. Anythingggg else? Yeah, a bunch of stuff.
I've got this idea abouttt...
Why am I think about this... uhhhhh... I think a lot of Gen Xers are ardent pornography defenders lol. that's why. Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like not all Boomers are, not all Milennials and younger are, but *all* Gen Xers are. That's a *vibe* I get, and maybe I'm wrong. Whoever's doing it though, I hate them.
There's a fake uh... "rift" or something going on in THE RIGHT rn, with neocons and lolbertarians defending pornography and getting mad at ... Conservatives for opposing pornography, which they always have, and calling them the WOKE RIGHT, because uh... that's what "woke" means I guess, opposing pornography lol.
The other day, a guy told me feminists and Nuns are the "same shit, different outfit" because I guess they both oppose the objectification of women. That's a pretty hot take I guess. "Whores and Nuns are the same thing because I want to goon."
I'm not going to pretend I don't like sexy women in video games, but I think I saw a video of what, the biggest "Conservative" organization in the country, Dennis Prager--who is noooooot a Christian--scolding Christians for objecting to pornography lmao. And I think the term "Woke Right" came from that cyclops guy... uh... I can't remember his stupid name, the eyepatch guy, who is-- ...not really a Conservative, eitherrrrr... Dan something. whatever, you know who I'm talking about
There's these """Conservatives""" who just are "right" on the most absolute basic-bitch issues possible, like "TAMPONS SHOULDN'T BE IN BOYS' BATHROOMS!" and then they want to like..... take us to war with Iran....... and are telling Christians to shut up and watch pornlmao. no YOU shut up, and I'll fail my nofaps to nice tame ecchi or something, and I'll do so *shamefully*, FUCK you
And you see these libertarian Christian cumbrains with shit like "ooooooo we can't get rid of siiiiin, we need to have free will"lmao and it's just so obvious, man.
Oh really, we can't do anything? At all? Okay, then how about you at least accept that it's sin--
"JESUS DIED FOR ME :) "
ah, okay. Yeah, that's... that's true.
Porn defenders are just annoying. I don't like them and the way they act like this one t-- and I knooooooooooooooooooow the government is gaaaay, and it's baaad and they'll fuck everything up, and they'll go to far and *I'LL* go to prison forever because I have a picture of Veronica on my blog, right? I know. I just don't like how dismissive they are of this issue that's ruined so many men's lives, even if it weren't obvious that they themselves are just shameless enjoyers of hardcore pornography. Like at least have shame, don't be so fucking obnoxious.
While I'm complaining about stuff, lemme find a stupid comment real quick...
I like how all these people scream against censorship when it's against the left, but then when it's something they don't want, they pull out christian morals, but only when it's convenient to use that stance, which is applied at their discretion instead of consistently.
"People like some things... but DON'T like other things!!!"
People complaining about "hypocrisy" or double standards has always blown my mind. It might be the smoothest brain stuff on the planet. Idk what's smoother.
Yeah, fuck me, I don't like being censored for saying true-and-funny stuff, and I also "conveniently" would like a future where people can no-longer become millionaires by filming women being fucked in their asses and getting people hooked on the videos. Aww shucks I guess I'm a hypocrite :( and that also means I'm wrong automatically.
I can't staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand these peoplelmaogoiegr AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA
What other dumb and gay stuff is on my mind?
Some guy ina chat said today "I'd join up with Communists before I join Christian Nationalists. And I'm a Christian"
🙄
later he went on to also say he's a zionist, idk if that's necessarily connected, I'm just saying someone calling themselves a Christian said they'd rather Christian-murderers rule the country than Christians
Protestantism and its consequences??
and then later he was like "god help us 😜 " which is kinda interesting, isn't it? Not capitalizing God... doing a kinda sarcastic wink with a tongue sticking out... it's almost like he's not-- nah, I'm sure he's very devout and sincere and has a super le Personal Relationship
Uh. Okay I'm gonna stop seething about -- actually no I'm not lol because
SURELY it wouldn't be too good to be true, right? No, fuuuuuuu-- *I have to stop cursing so much, I'm sorry, I'm gonnnna stop cursing...
uh, anyway, no, they cancelled the order on me because they "found a defect" :') it makes me wonder if it was even uh... real, you know? whaaaatever.
I'll have to cope with it.
Uhh.. I did get an Extellatchi lol whiiich is the ... Fate Tamagotchi. It's a Nano, it's not. complicated at all, but I liek Fate, it's kewl.
It's keeeewl that Tamagotchi has a ton of crossovers. but they need moar, because the Fate a-- oh, I also got a Harry Potter one lmao.
I am after all a Harry Potter Superfan.
Anyway...............................idk. I'm a little --lol I kinda feeeeel... not necessarily DOOMPILLED, it just kinda makes me sick seeing liberal "Christians" care more about """""freedom""""" than... well, anything. Like really, you have a uh... personal relationship with Jesus? Did He tell you that hardcore pornography must never be censored? When you prayed to him about it, which you surely did, He uh... told you "above all else, people must be free to look at porn"?
i dunno. I think you're kinda just like, a fag. I guess I can cheer up a little, the other day I saw an epagan --actually HE said he was either blackpilled or doompilled idr, about the resurgence of traditional Christianity. And uhhh, neocons wouldn't be crying about traditional values if they weren't BACK. So that's . something.
but what about me? Could *I* even cope with being a state-mandated better man? Would I forfeit my gesugao digigirl mousepad? lmao it's not easy having shame. actually it kinda is, which is why I wish more people would, it's not really a big ask.
Ask...
anyway this is a downer post, sry. i'll be happier later, i personally guarantee it. inthemeantime. pls take care aaand. have a comforting day. God bless fren
I hate Goblin Girl's face in this one, and instead of making Asia Bones look like an "old Asian skeleton man", it just made *Rodrigo* Asian instead. And also too beefy.
But I love him, so I might have him be Rodrigo in *another dimensiooooon*.
He'll be.................... Rodtang.
Like that kickboxer. Lemme refresh my memory of him...
"Rodtang Jitmuangnon, also known as "The Iron Man," is a Thai
300+ fights, 270 victories, only 27 years old.
That's something special. Now, I know what you're thinking.
"OoOooOooh, Ask, these muy thai fighters inflate their resumes"
Yeah, I'm sure they do because everyone does.
But even if he literally MADE UP 200 fights, he's still had 70 more fights than Jon Jones le GOAT of MMA.
These 4ft 90lb Thai men are fighting like twice a month, while UFC fighters fight twice a YEAR.
And for what? They're not allowed to grapple, which everyone *hates* watching anyway?
Sure *I* don't watch kickboxing either loooooool but-- but-- I don't know, you tell me. Tell me why a sport with a fraction of the activity is so much more popular than another sport, when the only thing different about it is that it includes grappling, which on its own is the least-watched sport on Planet Earth. Does that make sense to you?
MMA has this "feel" of being "complete" or "REALISTIC", but it's not, there's still very-imporant safety rules in it--and I'm not saying there *shouldn't* be, but people should remember that they exist. Why should they remember? I'll tell you. Because if you get it out of your head that MMA is """real fighting""", then you'll be more able to enjoy watching kickboxing! I assume. I am assuming, I don't know, I don't watch kickboxing myself, so who cares. I'll try to get a little into kickboxing.
You ever see highlight vids of some of those guys? Like SAENCHI? They're wild. I love some of their names, too. "Superlek Kiatmuu9" That sounds like a cyberpunk name.
"Superlek Kiatmuu9" sounds like your rival street-racer who just kidnapped your girlfriend and is speeding away in his custom 1988 Ferrari Testarossa and if you ever want to see her again you'll meet him for one last race at the cliff where you thought he died when you raced him in high school.
Anyway. I'm being too hard on MMA maybe. You know what's exciting about it? The *threat* of the takedown or even the takedown itself. Once one guy's lying on top of the other and dry humping him, it gets a little Zzzzzzzzzzzzz but before that, it really is exciting that at ANY MOMENT, the fight can go to the ground. Right?
UFC311 is coming. Thoughts? I feel the same way.
I'm hoping and praying for our boys Arman and Merab, but things are looking bleak.
People say Dustin Porier gave Islam a hard time, but uhhhhhhhhhhhh... idk. I think Dustin's just tough. There was never a moment in that fight when I thought Islam was going to lose. I know Dustin is an ANCIENT MAN but idk how I feel about Arman's striking, while I know *exactly* how I feel about Islam's.
And Umar is lmao. Umar is -- he *has* to beat Merab, or else the Universe doesn't make sense. I'd love for Merab to squeak out a decision, though. It's kinda NOT RIGHT that Umar can just waltz in, humiliate Sandhagen, and be given a title shot. Is it? But it doesn't matter, he's been chosen.
Okayyyyyyyyyy wanna go through
https://www.ufc.com/event/ufc-311
Tagir vs Clayon... Dagi wrestler vs American wrestler, both finishers. OwO who cares, Tagir lol
RICKY "FEMBOI" TURCIOS vs Benardo Sopaj. ALL of Ricky's wins are by split decision? Uh, he's boned. He looked decent against... whatshisface... Rojas Jr. For a bit. but no, he's boned. Do you hear me? He's boned, Benardo is going to make him his girlfriend.
Moving up, The PEOPLE'S main event, Rinya Nakamura vs Muin Gafurov. A Japanese national wrestler vs a literal-who. I am going to be-- SO broken if Nakamura loses lmao I'm just being biased because I have a picture of a *different* Nakumura saved right here loooool
I think he'll get it done though. Muin's being FED to him.
Karol Rosa vs Ailin Perez. Neither of them are good looking, so we have to look at their merit...
you know, someone UNFOLLOWED me because of my really-funny joke about female MMA fighters. I think that was very wrong, very uncool to do that to me. ME. I can't copy a funny meme about a well-documented phenomena in video game development where Asian developers tend to make attractive women and American and Eurocuck devs tend to make hideous abominations? In fact, look at this meme my fren just sent me THIS morning-- ... actually, idk if I want to show you this, it's a little too sexy... Okay, I'll censor it a little.
So you see, it's in people's mind, everyone KNOWS this is going on (though it's mislabeled as a PS vs Xbox issue here), the last 5+ years have been marked by countless examples of developers attempting to make women less-feminine, they are *on*record* saying they're attempting to make them less-appealing to the "male gaze" and when their bodies are *already* covered up, what does that translate to? It means messing with their FACES, too. Making them more masculine, giving them squarer jaws, giving them loooonger noses, biiiigger foreheads, unrealistic amounts of "peach fuzz" on their cheeks. There is NO reason for one of Playstation's biggest characters, Aloy, to bear a STRIKING resemblence to Nikocado Avocado. That's not something that *ever* has happened in the *HISTORY OF THE ENTIRE PLANET*: people saying "Hey this female video game character really, really looks like an obese gay YouTuber."(congrats to Nik on his weight loss)
We're in uncharted territory, do you understand?
So I really think I was unfairly treated😔 It's not like my YELLOW FEVER has warped my brain into perceiving all White women as Tecia Pennington.
I therefore have no choice but to request that you, the person reading this, track down whoever it was that unfollowed me, and ask them to apologize to me and re-follow me, as well as Tip my website $5+ through Neocities, and also email me asking for my crypto address so they can send me their choice of BTC, ETH, DOGE, or Monero.
What were we talking about? Uh, psh, Karol Rosa will probably win. MMAGuru's got this theory about Brazilian women becoming more masculine, and they DO dominate in MMA so idk. Oh I'm sorry is that OFFENSIVE? Will you forgive me if I say that I think Bruna Brasil is probably the most attractive woman in the UFC? Okay? And there's uh.. Marina Rodriguez is cute, there's-- hey, Mackenzie Dern minus the implants. So they'Zzzzzzzzzzzzz i dontt care. moving on.
Zachary Reese vs A Guy Who Doesn't Even Have A Profile Pic on the UFC Website
Azamat Bekoev debuting with a very impressive 18-3 record. Idkkkk. Reese has a *significant* height and reach advantage, but if Azamat's got Dat Sambo, he'll win. They always win and we need to stop pretending that's not the case.
In my admittedly-not-perfect memory, I saw Russian sambo lose *once* to Judo of all things, but iirc the probable-Dagestani ended up somehow pulling off a victory anyway. It's just so *perfect* for 5-minute rounds. All your height and reach mean nothing when a guy's lying on top of you. I have to say it'll be an Azamat decision.
Graaaaant Daaaawson vs Dieo Fieriererererea? Grant by *dominant* wrasslerape. He WILL SUBMIT Diego within 2 rounds I GUARANTEE IT.
Bogdan Gusssskov vs Billy Elekana
Uhhhhh... Bogdan. It's gotta be. idk why Billy is a favorite. I think it's his debut, but he's only 7-1 and Bogs is 16-3. What don't I know about Billy? There isn't even a picture of him. HE'S GONNA GET BOGGED.
Almeida vs Spivac. I BELIEVE IN SERGHEI SPIVAC, HE IS MORE THAN A FAT HEAVYWEIGHT AND HE WILL FINISH JAILTON. OKAY? HE'S ONLY LOST TO THE ELITE OF THE EL--he got knocked out by Walt Harris? I hate heavyweights. I hate these stupid fat fucks fluke-ko'ing each other, this isn't a real sport, these obese idiots "fight" for less than 15 minutes every 6 months, there is no consistency with any of them, it's all meaningless, you'd have to be INSANE to bet money on fights like this, heavyweights are not MMA fighters, they are stupid ogres throwing big meaty hooks and let's move on
If Reddit were an MMA fighter, it'd be Payton Talbott, who is "fighting", once again, someone at a significant disadvantage to him. Raoni Barcelos is what, 10 years older than him or something? Shorter, smaller reach, journeyman record, being fed to pretentious femboy Payton to pad his resume, UFC is not a reputable promotion, moving on
MY NIGGA Kevin Holland is going to KILL Reinier De Ridder. That is all.
Beneil Dariush the Christian Iranian chad should NOT be fighting Renato Moicano, I look forward to a future where Christians are like Muslims and never fight each other, but until that day comes, Money Moica-- HAY,
LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, BRATHA. I CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE. Renato is too powerful rn.
Jiri and Jahamala Hill. If Jiri pulls this off, he's the GOAT. He won't and Kamala will knock him out.
Merab... ...poor, sweet Merab. He went on a what, 10-fight win streak to get his title shot? Then he won. And along comes Umar, who wins one fight and gets a title shot. REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE MERAB HUG HIM AND DON'T LET GO YOU CAN DO IT MERAB, KNEE HIS THIGHS
Finally Islam and Arman. I think if Islam wins this, he'll have tied the record for most title defenses.................... to be fair, two of them were against Volk, who is significantly shorter than him, and I'm tired of people pretending that height isn't an advantage within weight classes, I don't caaaaare if Volk is the featherweight goat. agrergsergetrh, idk. Arman can win, he definitely can win.
He's a little younger, a little taller than Volk, actually has a reach *advantage* over Islam... it'd be really cool if he won.
Whaaaaaaatever though. anything else? Yeah. Speaking of HURTING PEOPLE.
wanna talk MORE about
A few people were coping at me for my forceful condemnation of Neil Gaiman, insisting that ackshually the women wanted it or were at least okay with it.
My position's really simple, I don't care whether they wanted it or not lol.
For some reason, one DUMB FAGGOT in particular couldn't wrap his head around that, *literally* asking me:
"So you're saying people shouldn't have free will?" That's an exact quote, I remembered it because of how astoundingly retarded it was.
That's what peopple are like now. That's his response to me saying "Whether it was rape or not, I find his actions[hitting women with belts, making them lick shit] abominable." I don't *care* if someone *else* is okay with you doing it, *you* wanting to do it and doing it makes *you* sick.
SO... U SAY... NO FREE WIL?
People have been so thoroughly-conned into believing sodomy is normal that to suggest it's wrong to throat-fuck women until they puke, is to attack "free will".
In order for me to make myself clear to this brainlet, I'd have to say something like "Hey, do you remember that time a guy agreed to let a cannibal eat him? That wasn't okay, right?" for him to understand where I'm coming from, and then he'd just say "SO YOU'RE SAYING HAVING SEX IS LIKE EATING PEOPLE". Or worse, he'd just say "IT'S HIS CHOICE TO GET EATEN IF HE WANTS THAT'S CALLED FREEDOM."
Throw yourself off a bridge I hate you.
It's also always bothered me how much people love talking and joking about anal "sex".
[several paragraphs of ranting removed]
All of my disdain aside, actual-sex outside of marriage is still wrong too and I should have, if not identical, at least some disgust for careless discussion of that too, even from myself.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARIOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I ordered a Digimon lol. a WHITE one. it's neato. something kinda-bad about the Digimon devices is that most of the colors are fucking atrocious. Like the main color will be really nice, but the color of the bars will just clash with it badly. Like even THIS onelmao it isn't as nice as it could be, but it's like one of the few that *don't* look so bad to me. BLEH. But uh-- this White one is.... either an A or a B version, which wiilll UNLooOoock another egg for the one I have which is a... idk, D or C or-- idr, it doesn't matter. it's just neat. Moarrrr Digimon, and I'll be able to use the trade feature. NEATO.
I looked at the old... Pendelums. And the Virus Busters version that I have for the Pen Color, for the original, is going for like over $100. Which I don't wanna pay. Becauseialreadypaidthatfortheoneihavelol.
It sucks too, because it's really really good. Like the roster is freakin 15 more than the Color. For whatever reason the Color has less.
Nothing can ever just be a complete-improvement with Digimon.
The Digimon X too-- they released this cool Grey one, right? Another 15 levels and another 15 Digimon over the White/Blue one. Very cool! Except it's -- and this is just my own hangup I guess, it's the "Demon Lords" of Digimon, so it's a bunch of gay ones I don't want like Beelzemon and...Leviathanmonlmao and Lucifer-monlool. I wouldn't mind a couple evil ones, but they're *all* evil, it's the theme of the roster.
Of course the based one with *angels* is going for over
That's my cope.
Someone was selling a 20th anni that was made in... idr, *some* SEA country, and they were asking $20,000. Why? How could that *possibly* be worth $20,000 for being made in a certain country?
For that price, it should be made in one of the secret countries beyond the ice wall that we're not allowed to visit. It should be made *UNDER* the SEA, in Atlantis.
Anyway... idk. I'm tired or something. I wanna play Dragon Quest lmao I want to play Dragon Quest and forget all my troubles, all about Neil Gaiman and people defending him.
Life is good. My dog was just snoring. I should be more like her.
Shoutout to Porn Is Dicey who came back, I was thinking about him during my Neil Gaiman ramblings.
Am I forgetting anything? ... yeah, I was going to talk about Gemini. Forget that, I don't care.
thAT'S ALL. I'll let you go. Pls take care of yourself, stay safe. Haaaave a relaxing, pain-free day. ttyl.
God bless, fren
Hey fren, I hope you're well today.
This is Gemini's attempt at the Rodrigo Gets Some cover. It's not perfect, but I like it a lot. I like it more than the MS Paint picture I made for the original cover lol.
Goblin Girl needs to be looking up more at Rodrigo, and I haven't yet figured out how to convey "make the skeleton look like an old Asian man". It's also hard--for the obvious reason--of getting it to feel comfortable generating a short girl. But it still made this and it's pretty cool.
idk, let's talk about... ufc? digimon? My eternal neck pain?
I don't like Neil Gaiman. My introduction to him was him falsely complaining about CS Lewis being sexist, so I've never liked him. Neil Gaiman wouldn't be fit to shine CS Lewis's shoe, and suggesting that absolute treasure of a human being was "anti-woman" is repulsive. Especially now.
ComicsGate doesn't like Neil because he called them "creepy", which is a really funny word. Especially now.
I love the word creepy. It's a very venemous word. It's like getting bitten by a snake. If you writhe around, it's only going to make it worse. You can't convince someone you're not creepy by arguing with them. You have to give up and die, or escalate wildly-- which may not work, if your escalation can be seen as creeeeeeeeepy.
So when I REALLY want to be a faggot to someone online, I will say "that's creepy", "you sound creepy" knowing exactly what kind of a word it is. It's dismissive, it's vicious, and it's PROBABLY unwaranted. I'm on record saying that men should find very few things "creepy" or "weird", we should *understand* as much as we can. So while some things may and should repulse you, you should understand why. So when I use the word, I'm really being a hypocrite and just not caring at the time because whatever, I'm in a pissy mood.
Neil Gaiman is the kind of man who will just call people creepy without any shame or self-awareness. He uses it like a woman would use it. But women *should* use it the way they do: the world is a much more dangerous place for them. Especially if they're at Neil Gaiman's house :')
It's a pretty standard MeToo kinda story. "I was working for him, he fucked me, bloohoohoo" Obviously he didn't do anything *illegal*, but I uh, don't CARE because just because it's *legal* for Neil Gaiman to order a woman to lick her own shit off of his dick after he just fucked her ass, doesn't mean it's *good*.
It might also might be time to start considering the mental competence of women who "consent" to anal anyway, so it could be argued that Neil Gaiman anally raped a retarded woman. That wouldn't at all be an unfair assessment.
Neil Gaiman's representatives came out with something like "BDSM isn't for everyone" and they're right. It's for no-one, it's inappropriate, it's unhealthy, it's not sex and it's time to stop pretending that it is.
"I get off by pretending to be a violent freak" is the "I was just PRETENDING to be retarded!" of sex. Neil Gaiman isn't indulging in "fantasy" when he orders a woman to call him master and cooms on her face, it's just *what he wants to do*. He wants to subjugate women, hurt them, degrade them-- and then turn around in public and say he's their "ally", which for feminists meansssss, what? "Sex-positivity" and "abortion". Lmfao.
Why of course, my fuck-meat slave, I am your greatest ally. Now bend over.
Neil Gaiman wrote a poem--something like "what I've learned about love", and what a fucking shock, it was basically "nothing". That's really a man who definitely loves and respects women. Totally fucking blanking out trying to write about loving them. Like fucking Spongebob trying to write his boating school essay. What I've learned about love is... what I've learned about love isss.... FUCK! ANAL!
He actually had one line that was so fucking pretentious I paused the stream and yelled into my watch "MAKE OF NOTE OF THIS". It blew my fucking mind. You're going to love this, lemme find it... okay, here's what Neil Gaiman has learned about love:
There's beasts in the night. What a fucking teenager. Basically, you know-- the reality that life *is* quite frightening, and it's very nice to have a companion. Obviously, Men and Women were made for each other. But doesn't it seem a little... inappropriate for a talk about *love*. I'd agree that women make life worth living, but it's a sort of self-centered way of approaching the subject of *loving* them.
Hey Neil, why do you love women?
"THERE ARE MONSTERS UNDER THE BED."
Just die. So anyway, I'm obviously *supremely* biased against Neil Gaiman since he disparaged one of my favorite authors, who was a better man and writer than him, and uh-- whatever, I know a lot of people like him, and I'm sure he's written things that aren't bad. I hope helmao I hope he's able to . find peace. and maybe a healthier outlet for his sexuality than needing to be called "master" while his dick is covered in 💩
anything else... speaking of 💩,
BeelStarmon on the X finally kicked the bucket. She was tough, I have to hand it to her. I'm actually not going to use the X for a while though, i wanna kinda "focus" on the 20th a little moar. The 100+ Digimon is just *sooooo* good. On the X, I *know* too much already, so it's not really exc-- well, something new did happen today. a GIANT PILE OF 💩 was on the screen, idk if it's from accumulation orrr if it was Damemon or something. But it was pretty funny I guess.
The Tamagotchi Connection is sooooo cool though. I thought maybe mine wouldn't be able to get married and have kids since-- you know, I don't know anyone else with a Tamagotchi Connection. but an NPC came and I had the option to marry him, so that was really cool. Now I've got a baby again. The cycle was a success. Because Tamas know what love is, it has nothing to do with sadism.
Anything else? ... oh, speaking of beating up women, there's that huge UFC payperview this weekend! SO many good fights. I don't want to torture you any more, maybe I'll go over it tomorrow or something.
KK you've suffered enough. I'll ttyl ok? pls take care of yourself. aaaaaaaand. have a comforting day. God bless fren
Hey, I hooooooooope you're well today.
Uhhhh... idk, let's talk about... --well, let's do a fight recap real quick. a short one.
i lost trackatiiime and missed the first few fights
including the weird Fatima Kline vs Viktoriia Dudakova fight, where the odds were like CRAAAZY for a women's fight. Like it should have been pretty even, but Kline was an 8-1 favorite, so SOMETHING WEIRD AND MYSTERIOUS was up. Adn of coruse I missed the fight, so fuck me. whatever. let's just skip waaay up
to the last fight of the prelims, Jose Johnson vs Felipe Bunes.
I LOOOOOOOVED this. this was a perfect fight.
They're flyweights, right? 125lb, the lightest weight class. Most guys are SHORT... sayyyy 5'5ish, 5'7 is actually probably not abnormal with the way guys cut weight. But you understand, it's the weight class with the SHORTEST GUYS necessarily.
Felipe Bunes is 5'7, which is perfectly acceptable for the division.
Jose Johnson is fucking 6'0. He doesn't belong at 125. Maybe that's why he missed weight :') Maybe he should be fighting at bantamweight, or featherweight, where he'S ACTUALLY FOUGHT BEFORE, and where he'D STILL BE TALL (CURRENT FEATHERWEIGHT CHAMP ILLIA TOPURIA IS 5'6)
So this lanklet FAGGOT's coming in to try to bully a short king, And on top of being taller and heavier than him, what else? Of course he's 6 years younger than him.
This is why the UFC isn't a serious organization. It's not sport, it's entertainment. They'll just feeed older fighters to younger ones.
But it didn't work out this time, because even though Johnson was supposed to knock him out in round 1, FELIPE BUNES GOT HIM IN AN ARMBAR INSTEAD. It was so beautiful. PUT SOME WEIGHT ON YOUR LANKY LIMBS, LANKLET, you don't BELONG there
okay whataneeexxxttttt...
Roman Koylov vs Chris Curtis. Even though Chris Curtis is kinda like a soyboy, I like him, he's fun to watch and he's tough. But the COMMENTARY during Round 2 of this fight was so batshit insane I felt like I was being sucked into another dimension. Michael Bisping sounded like he was SECONDS AWAY from jumping into the cage and sucking Chris's dick, it was cAHRAAAAZY.
Here's what happened. r1 wassss pretty close, I gave it to Kopylov. But r2, was definitely Curtis, he hurt Kopylov BAAD, knocked him down, almost finished him, and then Roman was kinda shaky the whole round. But he was still trading with Curtis, you understand? He wasn't donezo, he wasn't on queer street, he'd just gotten hurt. But for the entire round, they were acting like Curtis was just raping him, "WHOOAAAA CURTIS IS WALKIN' HIM DOWN, HE'S STALKING HIS PREY OIII BLOODY HELL" And then Kopylov hurt Curtis at the end. But it was still Curtis's round, sure.
And then r3 came, and Kopylov turned it around totally. Outstruck him, took him down, doing great work-- definitely Kopylov's round, commentary team forced to accept reality, Bisping dragged off the cage and the drool wiped from his mouth. And at the *very last second* to put a stamp on it, Kopylov headkick KO's him.
Perfect. The end :') Again,,,,,,,, Curtis is cool, but the UFC commentary is sometimes so wildly fucking bad it's unlistenable. They're just-- selectively calling shots, selectively glazing, you know? like they're watching an entirely different fight. whateverIDONTCARE.
anythingg else... oh I really liked Santiago Ponzinibbio knocking out Carlston Harris. I don't remember why I liked it though. I had a *reason* though, don't worry. It was probably a good comeback, like Ponzi had a really rough time at first-- I just... can't remember... huh.
Anyway, Mackenzie Dern subbed Amanda Ribas, which i like for a number of reasons. 1- her daughter was there, and she had a little Eevee plushie so im glad she didnt have to watch her mom getting beaten up. BUT also Mackenzie was the underdog, and i love underdogs. Aaaaaand.. she was having a rough fight until she got that sub, so it was awesome. Also even though she tragically let a surgeon ruin her chest, she's still cute. Was there another rea-- oh, and MMA Guru picked Ribas to win LOL. So Zzzzzz yay Mackenzie. Women's MMA is-- well, maybe it's not underrated, tons of gay casuals love it, but it's underrated by HARDCORE fans, and I wish it wasn't, because I actually really enjoy the fact that I can run to the kitchen and get a seltzer without having to worry about them knocking each other out. Whereas men-- especially obese heavyweight retards--are constantly fluke ko-ing each other every other fight. That's why lighter men are more entertaining to watch, too. It's really AWESOME that Tom Aspinall can beat anyone in under a minute, BUT: watching Pantoja beating someone up for 25 minutes is comfier.
anyway, bigggggggg fights this weekend, so that'll be... fun.
what else... "no one likes on your posts" is me thinking about... LUCE. You know Luce? The Vatican's cute little anime mascot for Jubilee 2025?
When I first found out about her, I read 2 articles. One positive, and one negative. Let me tell you about the negative one first.
The negative one was in VICE by a middle-aged homosexual man who complained that the Church was "out of touch" and "desperately grasping for relevance". So I clicked on the author's profile, where he of course listed his dozen-different social media accounts, and I took a looksie wooksie. And wouldn't you know it, he gets no fucking engagement on anything that he does. I get more likey wikeys and viewy wewies writing about Harry Potter and Digimon on neocities dot com than he does spewing his basic bitch gaybrain idiot political takes on X and Insta and Vice. It must be rough being so relevant and in-touch with the kids, no cap. bussin.
Meanwhile, the positve article about Luce that I read was by a young Catholic woman, anlmao and when I clicked on her twitter-- man, I know. that that VICE blogger would kill his entire family for the amount of likes she gets on her tweets, tens of thousands. She's traveling the woooorld, seeing all kinds of cool Christian cultural sights, writing these very-nice articles for a Christian journal, writing about important things liiike, North Korean refugees. Like uh, her life matters.
And it just makes you think. What are we doing? I know what I'm doing, I'm making fun of a gay failed journalist. but it's not really important, is it?
before i stop though, I can't forget to mention the Wikipedia editor who wanted to include a section for Rule 34 on Luce's Wikipedia page.
I clicked on his profile, because of course he'd have a Wikipedia profile, and what else would he be but an obese man asking to be called they/them.
I dunno why he wanted to include a section about Rule 34 on a wikipedia page about a little anime girl Catholic mascot. I mean, I could speculate. I wonder how he would have worded it. Wikipedia doesn't really have standards, he should have just done it. Obviously it's a totally appropriate thing to include in a Wikipedia article, who'd know better than a veteran Wikipedia editor?
"Days after Luce was announced, artists began drawing porn of her[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]Though some critics were outraged[12], the overwhelming majority of experts agrees that little Catholic girls get what they deserve[13][14][15][16][17][18][19]
Irreverant irreligious men make me sick.
sry, im in a mood i guess. I'd like to kick him in his fat fucking gut. why would you upload a picture of yourself like that you fat fucking retard.
you know what else bothers me, since I'm letting loose a little? Seth Rogan and Sarah Silverman making a Christmas movie. The force with which I would punch Sarah Silverman in her face would shatter her empty skull like an egg. An EASTER egg. I'd break Seth's glasses and throw them down at his feet. And when he bends over to pick them up, I'd give him a wedgie. Atomic. Right over that nappy head of yours, Seth. Sorry you don't like Christmas, retard, maybe if you hack up some more phlegm you'll feel better about it. about everything.
anyway,im sorry uhhhhhhhhhhhh-- one more thing -edit: no.
ill ttyl. pls take care of yourself. have a warm day.
God bless fren
Hey hope youre well
i had the worst headache today. so i slept.
it's so cold. i think im gonna go back to bed in a minute.
i've got this stupid-long post about MtG, but idk, it's not ready. it's not about Magic so much, it's mostly about my friends. That's not bad, but it ma-- i dont want it to be a "Magic post", it can't be. You understand what my issue is. Think of your best friends, imagine you played a card game with them for a year. Now try to just write about that without gushing about your entire history with them. I think it's a great, entertaining post so far. I just need to tweak it a little and focus more on us learning how to play & my brief attempt at Blue, and a little less on our shy friend coping with badly losing to me by sneaking off to the bathroom and racehorse fucking a nursing student.
YOU THINK I'M A LOSER TOO, DON'T YOU?! HUH?! ADMIT IT!! ORAAAAAAAAAAAA!!
Actually no, I'm not going to do that lol, Magic sucks, I'm going to focus MORE on his secret love affair that he thought we'd never find out about, more on ALL of our personal lives and loves that had nothing to do with a card game. Magic's just the uh... fun, silly ribbon that tied it all together. Because even if I shit talk it now, it was fun enough for us to play ever day.
Anyway, that post is like... half done or something. I hope you'll enjoy it, I've already spent too long on it. So I'll make sure it's at least. something.
VIDYA?
No, weren't you listening to me? I said I had a headache today :( My freakin Digimon almost died on me, too! You know, for the "boy focused counterpart of Tamagotchi", Digimon aren't very tough.
One evolved into a Devidramon. Now I've got this gay evil dragon. But unlike evil-looking people irl, evil-looking Digimon aren't necessarily evil, so I have an obligation to take care of him. I'm not caring too much anymore about what he might become, with 100+ Digimon on the anniversary device, you might as well enjoy the surprises. Especially if you're like me, and have to turn your brain off in the middle of the day and almost let them die.
My dog just barged into my room. I love her so much, but, isn't it annoying when they can't make up their minds? I wish there was a uh... well, I'm sure there's *something*, but you know what I mean-- a way for them to open and close doors on their own.
I'm reminded of a story about a dog that tried escaping a panther or something through his doggy-door, only to be followed inside and killed, so doggy doors aren't good enough. I spend maybe too much time thinking about how I would fuck up anything that attacked my dog. She's a "big" dog, but not compared to other big dogs. She'd take a bobcat, but not a panther. I'd have to come in with the soccer kicks. Smash the panther's brains out with a pool ball like I'm Rocco in Boondock Saints, tape knives and broken bottles to my hand like the end of The Grey. I worry about my dog. Maybe I could make her some kind of body armor, or a knife suit.
I guess I could just cope with having to open and close doors for her. Isn't it the chivalrous thing to do anyway? What, you're saying that doesn't apply to animals? Hm.
This weekend. FINALLY. The UFC's back. Mackenzie DERNNNN is fighting, isn't that exciting? I know, but uh. She's pretty hot, so that's cool right? She kinda ruined herself with those fake tits, so that's a tragedy. "Herself", obviously I just mean her body, she's probably a lovely girl.
Those perfectly-circular balloons aren't lovely, though. My entire life, I've never looked at a pair of fake tits, and thought "Those are nice". Who's to blame? I rememberlol I remember an old KILLSTREAM where Ethan Ralph polled a large panel of guests, and everyone agreed small is better than fake. So WHO is to blame? Don't say it, I know. I mean, what generation? It feels like a Gen-Xer thing. But why is it still around? W--
That's enough, what a STUPID thing to write about, I'm sorry. I'm sofreaking trergegrsgrregsreg I'll ttyl, ok? pls take care of yourself. have a warm day, and God bless fren
Hey fren, I hope you're feeling well today.
Did you know Nietzsche went insane? No one ever told me that. Even if YOU knew that, we both know you're smarter than me, I doubt MOST people do. We only ever hear about what a genius he was for saying that people should improve themselves.
I was going to make this post just about him, I had all my little notes about how all his good ideas are Christian ideas and how the rest of his ideas are dumb antisocial delusions for pretentious faggots. But I really am sad to learn about his life. And I'm sure there was a lot of good in him.
Now that said, an objectively superior philosopher once said "Nothing means nothing."
"Nothing means nothing? What do you mean by that?"
"I'm talking about all the way to the top, yeah. Unjustifiably in a position I'd rather not be in! But the cream will rise to the top. Ooh, yeah."
Here, the Macho Man flatly rejects nihilism, seeing through the supposed "nothingness" and asserting that he will "rise to the top" in a world not merely indifferent, but actively conspiring AGAINST him. He faces not the meaninglessness of the world, but the MEANINGFUL PURPOSE of the world, challenging it with his own purpose, declaring that he will overcome it.
Nietzsche's "Übermensch" can never ascend to the heights that the Macho Man can: he'll never "rise to the top", because he's climbing on nothing. He believes he's "overcoming" society but the Übermensch is not overcoming, he's retreating. The Macho Man actively challenges society rather than reject it, he dives into it, and then he uses his strength and wisdom to rise to the top, and in doing so, elevates us all.
Ooh yeah.
Remember how Macho Man's father set a world record for sit-ups and dedicated it to Christ? Over six thousand in 4 hours. "Erm, slave morality🤓"
I'm close to going off and being too mean here, so lemme move on. We all know Christ is king.
So what am *I* doing that's so much greater than Neetzsche? I'll tell you.
I'm almost done clicking buttons to generate images of the HP Longbottom characters. Exciting, right? I know. Who's left... Dumbledore, I'll do ones of Slytherins and Ravenclaws as groups... Crabbe and Goyle... Pangingi... Ginny, Pansy, Mizuki, Khaliun, Isabel, and Gilderoy Lockhart. Ah geeze dood why are there so many characters?
I really like how they've been turning out though, very funny. Uhh... I'll add a few more after I post this I guess.
For some reason, it was having a little trouble with Sirius Black, and it gave me a bunch of awesome pictures of masked soldiers, and it's likelmao like broooo. If this was around when I was a little kid, I'd be in Heaven. I remember when my friend illustrated Spooks in the Deep. It was so cool to see the world in my head brought to life, even though he took plenty of liberties(mostly good). Now whatever's going on in my head, I can just type it and it basically comes out exactly right, at worst with some messed-up limbs. I'm not saying anything new here, it's still just tttttttt. just cool. I'm not over it. At some point I have to use it for something better than HP Longbottom.
That there's an ALTERNATE Rei Jeong. I like her hair moar because it's supposed to be MESSY, but overall I think the other one's better. Idk, maybe because of her pose. That's the thing with dis AI roight? You'll like something more in one of them, and something in another one. What? You're saying that with a little effort you could just edit them together to get the exact image you want? Effort? Yikes. What do you want me to do next, do 6 thousand sit-ups in 4 hours? What am I, some kind of slave?
I freakin love the pic of Ron and her, that came out great.
Anyway. What else? Nothingg else, I think I'm coming down with something. It's freakin cold. I got recommended some guy who makes videos about "Breadtubers", and I'd never really seen any of them before besides the Hassans and shit, and there's this disgusting guy doing a Tiktok dance with the caption "just ordered herpes meds from the Internet✨" --and that . It really makes you think about. Everything. That we live -- and I know I'm being DRAMATIC, but in a better world, that guy would be imprisoned for being such a fucking loser. Or rather, he just wouldn't have even done that. Dancing and trying to brag about having herpes, the cope probably being that he's "combating stigma", whatever the fuck he thinks that actually amounts to. He probably considers it a W because it's a sign that he's had contact with another human, but L.M.F.A.O. No girl ever gave ME herpes. Hey, how about that? That's MY humblebrag. The WORST girl I was ever with was kind, beautiful, and never gave me any diseases✨ Enjoy your male feminism my guy. Hey, my dude👉👉 hopefully you can get auto-refills. NEVER forget to take your medicine, or the next diseased woman you try to bed might be too grossed out by all your bright red infectious sores.
It's just the worst fucking thing I care to remember right now lol he's so proud of himself. No-wonder the video was called "Breadtube's Biggest Loser". You know, I'm not going to blame Neetzsche for him, but you *know* he's not the Church's fault.
That's it, no more. We've both suffered enough, I'm sorry. I'm gonna -- I gotta take a nap or something, I'm not sure. Kinda a bummer post, I'm sorry. Uh... next one, guaranteed 100% positive. (I have to stop doing this)
kkkkkkkkkkk pls take care. and have a comfy day. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiill ttyl, ok? God bless fren
Hey fren, I hope you're feeling well today. That's a boy btw, it's Jack from HP Longbottom.
I was just reading a little ART of the DEAL
And
During the construction of Trump Tower, the city at the time was offering tax exemptions for new buildings for idk, 10 years. Just apply, get your exemption. Right? WRONG. Every person who applied got the tax exemption EXCEPT Donald Trump. Sure, Trump Tower was probably(definitely) a much "different" case than the other new buildings: they'd be missing out on more money from Trump Tower than any other, but the fact was that the city was offering the exemption, Trump was qualified for it, and they denied him.
So he told them. "You're going to waste a lot of time and money defending yourself in court over this and you know I'm going to win" And he was right. He took them to court, he won. The court found they had unjustly denied him the exemption and ordered them to "reconsider."
So the city denied him again. So he sued them again. And he won again. It played out exactly the same to the point where Trump's lawyer didn't even require notes when he was giving his arguments.
This time, the court wasn't playing around and ordered the city to grant him the exemption immediately.
Imagine the time(years) and money(more than many people will make in their lives) WASTED by the city to deny a man something he was entitled to by the rules THEY wrote. Even if they had ultimately WON-- I'm not going to do any math in my head rn, just thinking about it briefly-- would it ultimately have been a financial gain or a loss? Think about the manpower alone. Lawyers wasting their fucking time losing--ESPECIALLY after the initial loss--to Trump when they could have been making money for the city on other business. They really had nothing better to do than to try to argue that a guy who qualifies for a tax exemption... shouldn't get it? After they lost the first time, they STILL had nothing better to do? You know, it really goes to show how stupid, evil, and petty Da Govmint really is. The city's already going to be making FAR MORE money from Trump Tower than the previous building there, but they don't even want one possible dollar to escape. What a fucking misery. Then Trump, or X Businessman--who provide goods/services/housing/attractive,safe recreation areas/etc.-- will be accused of inhuman greed, while wealthy city officials turn the Big Apple into a dangerous reeking shithole and condemn the only people and businesses who make the city worth anything at all. It's a delicate balance, you know that. Obviously companies & businessmen usually aren't ANGELS. But if a man is building a skyscraper which will provide living and business space to thousands of people, and it's YOUR job to simply ensure that the streets around it are safe and clean so people can access the building that you didn't build which you still profit from, and those streets are the piss-scented(at best) streets of NYC, you've FAILED and deserve to b
Anyway, speaking of exemptions, I'm gonna go see if Bing's generated a better picture of Jack.
Mhmm, still not exactly right, but I think I have to give up and move on. Good enough. Trying to generate a perfect Jack, I now have over a dozen pictures of anime traps. What does this have to do with exemptions? Isn't it obvious?
I'm EXEMPT from YOU calling me gay: traps aren't real lmao I'M TIRED OF THIS
"Ah geeze... dude... I saw this picture of Astolfo... and he's technically a male, so... I'm questioning my sexuality now..."
Okay, go ahead, bro. Go outside and find the Astolfo. Find the Jack, GO AHEAD, I'M SURE YOU'LL FIND HIM. HUH? YOU COULDN'T DO IT?
I know it's really easy to meme yourself into false realities when you spend too much time on the Internet, but it's probably not a uh, good thing. If you think women disappoint compared to anime girls(I don't, I'm just saying maybe YOU do), there's ENTIRE REALMS of deeper disappointment in store for you if you start believing that traps are an actual thing.
That's all, that's the exemption. What, you think I'm coping because I generated a bunch of pictures of anime boys that I want to mating-press? But even if that were true, I'm still literally correct, so maybe *you're* coping.
Speaking of wanting to mating-press Jack, DRACO'S pics came out really cool lol. I originally got him in uh, Space Marine armor, but I thought that was a liiittle much, so he's gonna be in like, SWAT armor I think. I just don't want to touch the Longbottom Bible rn, it was really exhausting trying to update it last night. Simply pasting images into a document should be the easiest thing in the world, but it wasn't. I guess because I'm saving it as an html file, but, you know. How it looks in the processor isn't what it's going to end up being, just because offfffff... like the borders, which I ca-f--go FORGET IT.
Voldemort's is reeeeeeally cool and funny, he's ice skating and jacked an-- gosh, I sure do love AI art.
Any further exemptions you want to talk about? Me neither, but I got 2 more
Don't start shit with me, they're awesome. It's CRIMINAL that they're targeted at girls, while we get stuck with Digimon lmao Don't get me wrong, Digimon devices are awesome. But they've remained very simple compared to Tamagotchi. I haven't even touched the Uni yet, but the Connect(thankfully I was able to get a pretty neutral color w/ a clear shell) has so much more to it than Digimon. You can BATHE them, you can play different games and they can earn $ and there's a shop to buy items and stuff for them, they have way more animations, and like "moods".It's just really cool. It's a neato little device with a lot to it. Saaaadly it's still using the CR2032 battery instead of being rechargeable, but such is life. The UNI *IS* rechargeable though, so thaaaaaat's neato. But I haven't touched the Uni yet, I don't want to lmao-- I already have my Digimon Pen, original Gotchi, and now the Connect all going at the same time. I'm going to be like one of those sickos who hordes cats and lets them die. At least the Digimon can be frozen, but I'm pretty sure the original Tamagotchi can't, and Idk about the connect, lemme see... YES, the Connect can be frozen. So I don't have to be an irresponsible pet owner, I can just freeze these suckas if they're too much for me lmao
I froze the Digimon X, because I'm satisfied w/ Crusadermon X, but idk, SHOULD Beelstarmon X be allowed to live just because she's sexy, or should I LET HER GO(die) and aim for a 3rd VI+? That's something I kinda like about Tamagotchi, there's different paths to different adults, but there's no "who's the STRONGEST?" consideration like there is with Digimon. Ending up with a Digimon who's not as strong as it could be, or at LEAST not a hot girl, just sucks, you want them to die lol. Strong and sexy Digimon are exempt from death.
KK that's enough, I'll ttyl. Uhh... Longbottom stuff? lol. I'm gonna try to finish generating all of the characters today, toss them into the story bible, which hopefully won't give me a hard time, and then I'll WRITE?! a new chapter. AND FURTHERMORE, I'll uh... I'll narrate the chapter for fun, even though I haven't settled on a voice yet. btw--yuge SHOUT OUT to WAIFU LIBRARY for finally inspiring me to try ElevenLabs: WAY simpler than Google's insane cloud TTS so far, really dig it.
Pls read Waifu Library's
As long as I'm praising writing, The Lesser Word's poetry
will hit you like a truck too, and his blogs are really fun reads. No wait, I know this feels "tacked on", "ohhhh he's only including Lesserbro because he glazed Waifubro"-- no, I FIRST thought of WAIFU BECAUSE OF ELEVENLABS, and when I started thinking of HIS writing, I *ALSO* started thinking Of LESSERBRO's writing, which I *ALSO* admire, okay? Do you know how HARD it is to write Christian poetry? How DEEPLY you have to cut to your own heart, how "exposed" it leaves you before EVERYONE? And to do it WELL, like Lesser does it? That deserves respect, it's that simple. Don't give me GRIEF for LIKING PEOPLE'S WORK.
Anyway. I will exempt you from any more of this blog now lol.
That's all for me rn, pls take care aaand have a warm, relaxing day. I'll ttyl, God bless fren.
Hey fren, I hope you're well today.
"please generate a simple image of a red-haired anime girl wearing a hoodie and smiling"
"Sure, here you go:"
And it's just that simple! Right?
Well, I did have to find the correct version of Gemini. And uh, I did get a few "Sorry lol I couldn't do it" when I tried a more detailed prompt. But other than THAT...
lmao Lemme try a more detailed one again real quick, brb...
Nope, couldn't do it! I just wanted an anime gril witht a gun :'( I'm using a prompt that *Gemini itself* wrote for me, too!
What do you think the issue is? It said it was using... Imagen 3? Hm.
I'll try the same prompt on Bing, and I'll also try a simpler one w/ Gemini again.
LMAO okay I just asked for "a cute anime girl in a gas-mask aiming an ak47 down a creepyhallway"
That's encouraging, right?
A much more detailed prompt literally wouldn't work, but a simpler one gave me something pretty neato.
Now, Bing did come up with something for the detailed prompt. That's uh... very impressive. I'm too lazy to post it here but I am impressed that it did it. I don't know what I'm going to-- here's the thing,
What does that have to do with
For what kind of return?
And the picture I painted of HP Longbottom saying "It's PRETERnatural!" took me what, idk say 10 minutes, and cost $0. And it's funny, but it's also a piece of shit and took a precious 10 minutes.
These are things that have to be thought about. As someone who isn't RICH, I have the luxury of not feeling guilty for not paying artists because I literally cannot. So it's a non-issue. I can't really afford to pay someone to draw dozens of pages of Harry Potter battling squid monsters, so I'm not going to. I imagine there's some kind of "tip" argument like if you can't afford to tip you can't afford to eat out: if you can't afford a human artist, you can't afford art. And even if that sounds insanely obnoxious and presumptuous, I do think that COULD have some kind of moral validity to it, I really do. I think artists who do beautiful work are basically heroes, and I mean that. But on the other hand, in 15 seconds I can generate a picture of you as a soyjak crying about it. Hey, you think I'm thrilled that AI can be used for filling writing roles?
So IDK. AI's here, I might as well use it. I very much doubt I'll ever use it for writing, and I'll still at least try to improve my figure drawing by hand--nothing can stop an Italian from sketching nude women. But Perplexity's absolutely BTFO the way I was getting answers before it. It's just superior to Google searches: it's faster, it omits worthless gay opinions, and you know what's nice too? It's very polite.
kk that's enough.
On muh X though, against all odds, I managed to get Crusadermon X, which is aaaaaaawesome. In order t-- I had a uh, Rafflesimon and to get her to become Crusadermon, you have to: have beaten a random Crusadermon encounter(done), max her level, finish the final stage with her, and have ZERO care mistakes. BRUTAL. Uh, but I cheated lmao. I kept changing the clock so she was aaaaaaalways asleep until she evolved. You know what I don't feel bad about it? Because it's still nerve-racking. Accidentally letting them stay up too late, or freeeeaking waking up late yourself and they were HUNGERY and you didn't get to them within 15 minutesIT'SASGR OAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH This is why Tamagotchi is more relaxing. You basically can end up with like, a few different cute pets, or a few different ugly assholes. And that's it. Let the uggos DIE, big deal whatever.
If I had gotten STUCK with Rafflesimon? There's only one way out. I would have had to mistreat a beautiful fairy. That's EVIL. But what else is there? I GOTTA have my Crusadermon X. And now I do. And now what? I got him to his max level. He exists to eat and poop now.
Btw-- okay I'm using up too much time, that's something COOL about the Pendelum, is that they can uh... "Jogress" with each other. JOINT. PROGRESS. I think that's ... like 2v2 battles. So that's neato. AAaand it ... unlocks evolutions for.....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I'm tired. I'm forgetting something, I know I am. but i can-- i gotta go. I'll ttyl. pls take care and. have a comforting day. God bless,fren
Hey fren. I hope you're feeling well.
I think I need to train my body to not lean to the left.
I don't really know what I want to do to celebrate

Sherlock gives us a DIRE WARNING
“When one tries to rise above Nature one is liable to fall below it. The highest type of man may revert to the animal if he leaves the straight road of destiny.” He sat musing for a little with the phial in his hand, looking at the clear liquid within. “When I have written to this man and told him that I hold him criminally responsible for the poisons which he circulates, we will have no more trouble. But it may recur. Others may find a better way. There is danger there–a very real danger to humanity. Consider, Watson, that the material, the sensual, the worldly would all prolong their worthless lives. The spiritual would not avoid the call to something higher. It would be the survival of the least fit. What sort of cesspool may not our poor world become?”
Sherlock then snaps himself out of this blackpill and invites Watson for some tea. It's a good story. Probably one of the WORST Sherlock Holmes stories, but still really good lol. There's just not much of a mystery to it, OBVIOUSLY the guy's taking some kind of drug. That ending is pretty solid though, very scary. A world of Immortal Redditors. Imagine. Eventually they start mandating that everyone takes the eternal chimp serum, because dying is racist and transphobic against the Immortal Trans-Human Chimps, who require the labor of the humans who want to die in order to produce more eternal chimp serum. I mean, it's just ILLOGICAL to not take the eternal chimp serum, you do realize that... right? It's called being a good chimp.
Anyway, I was juuuust listenan to some background
Dafna Yoran was born in Israel. Her father, Shalom Yoran, was a partisan who deeply inspired her and is also the author of “The Defiant: A True Story of Jewish Vengeance and Survival”. Dafna grew up in Israel, where she developed a strong sense of her Jewish heritage and upbringing.🥴
There you go. I can't imagine the pain of having a short conversation with this woman based on that single paragraph. So imagine having to helplessly listen to her, day after day, with her disgusting nasally voice, arguing in court that you have to be imprisoned for the rest of your life because you tried to save some fellow New Yorkers from a lunatic threatening their lives. This-- to put it as nicely as I can, this evil cunt is *victimizing* you and there's nothing you can do about it but sit there politely. LMAO
I might rather just be killed by the homeless schizo. That takes what, a few minutes? Then you're done, you're in a better place, you're not here. Dafna Yorans will make you suffer for MONTHS and YEARS, even if you ultimately escape her.
I dunno, maybe I'm wrong. I just think everyone would feel a lot safer and would be more willing to stick their neck out to help each other if they didn't have to worry about Dafna Yorans. Or whoever that pencil-necked Star Wars Resistance pin-wearing faggot who prosecuted Rittenhouse(who sucks and is fat and cringe now) was.
Your Honor, we are asking for THE MAXIMUM PENALTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HA-HAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!! THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR NOT POLITELY ASKING THAT GUY SCREAMING THAT HE WAS GONNA KILL YOU HOW YOU COULD HELP HIM!!!!!!!!!!! WAAAAAAAAH HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!! YOU'RE MINE FOREVER!!!!!!!!!! FOREVEEEEERRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You just can't expect Good Samaritans while there's Dafna-- and look, obviously it's funny and concerning that she is What She Is, but I just mean like, unethical prosecutors in general even if they're not the daughters of anti-White, anti-Christian extremists.
Anyway, I didn-- why did I even start talking about this? I must be getting... tired.
Anyway, that has nothing to do with what I actually want to talk about lmao. I remembered the quote is from The Call of the Conciliator from the Book of the New Sun:
I asked if he had news of the war.
“Oh, yes, sieur. I’ve followed it for years and years now, though the battles they fight never seem to make much difference, if you understand me. It never seems to get much closer to us, or much farther off either. What I’ve always supposed was that our Autarch and theirs appoints a spot to fight in, and when it’s over they both go home. My wife, fool that she is, don’t believe there’s a real war at all.”
I love that quote, because his wife is based. Because she's right. Not *literally* you know, but she's *in essence* right, it's just an unending war that no-one knows the reason for, no-one knows what's going on over there, nothing ever changes. It's all a meme. It's so visibly meaningless at least as far as the combat is concerned, that even the husband says he thinks the leaders are just playing a game, but then goes on to call his wife a fool. I LOVE that, and I didn't catch it the first time read the book.
Gene Wolfe was sssssuch a gooooood writer.
Anyway. I'm just exhausted. I need a... something. If I owe You an email, I'll try to get to it as soon as I can.
I'll ttyl, pls taekecare aaand. Have a comfy day. God bless.
Hey.
I hope you['re . okay.
Did you have a Merry Christmas? I hope so.Uhhhhhh, what doya wanna talk about? Some Fishtank, some Fighting, some Vidya?
Real quick btw, I have to shout out GameChops & their relaxing vidya music stream. Everyone knows and loves lofi streams, but relaxing vidya piano music is *always* good. a Balamb Garden cover's playing rn and it's niiiiiiiiiice
I wanted to review the...
Anything else? Vidya, huh? I'd never cared about HMs in
Anything else? Ye, I just spent $150 on a
One of my 2025 resolutions will be to not spend money on stupid things. Like the gesugao digigirl mousepad I got even though I didn't need a new mousepad.
When I have too much caffeine sometimes I get a little too SILLY. I don't regret it, it's a pretty good mousepad lol. It's more of a uh, cardgame mat though. You know. But it's a nice size and even though it's very obviously lewd it's not too much.
Aight, that's all, right? There's nothingg else to talk about? You want to talk about the [edit: removed, nightmarish feel-bad topic]? Me neither.
I had written out a HIGHLY DETAILED review of
In Season 2, JC is clearly bestgirl. She's so FUC excuse my language FUCKING hot, and she's just normal and not mentally FUBAR. Guys mistake not being a spaz as being boring, but uhhhhh. No, YOU make your girlfriend more interesting. If your gf's dull it's because you are. Summer looks good too, but you know. She's not right. JC might *look* like Mattress Girl, but Summer actually *is* Mattress girl, after you break up she's going to go on social media and accuse you of crimes.
That's all, I'm not going to bore you with more Fishtank talk. Lmao no just one more thing, I forgot to complain about the following:
Letty destroying the Bible was really gay. She is what she is so I can't blame her as much as the cameraman that ordered her to do it. That guy sucks. He's not funny at all with his "say something awkward with a straight face to assert dominance" gay fake psycho schtick and that moment uh, really TAINTED the show a bit. Jon should have gotten revenge for it, I'd probably have idk, ripped the camera away from him and thrown it. Orlol just throw a sticky drink on it, that's good enough. You don't have to destroy it but definitely damage it.
If Jon had done that birdbrains would be outraged because cameras cost more than a Bible. There's like nothing going on upstairs for them, the idea of value decided by something other than a retail sticker might as well be quantum physics. Not all irreligious people, but the irreverant ones often make me sick to my stomach.
*What? You want to hear the
Anything else you wanna talk about? Idr how I ended up on
Look, I like Asian girls as much as the next guy. OBVIOUSLY. But that's not a FUCKING meme. Reaction images don't need to be explained, they've NEVER needed to be explained.
KYM no-longer just documents memes, they astroturf them. Which would be one thing, but again, this isn't a meme it's just a gif of a hot Japanese girl's face as she's being fucked.
I'm not mad I guess. Really this isn't worse than usual KYM slop, it's probably better. This straight porn of an objectively attractive woman that they're advertising to their non age-gated community is one of the LESS harmful things that they promote. lmao I can't believe the cope I just typed.
I really don't care though, there's too much to care about. In the entry, a user also uploaded a picture of her with cum on her face with the tags "dessert, cream, custard, family-friendly, fun, wholesome, nice" Like the staff member that created the page, he's also been on the site for 6 years, so I'm on to something.
Still, I think I'm just going to not care and hope that parents never let their kids on the Internet unsupervised.
On a happier note, I discovered
First, Kevin Smith suggested that the Vatican made her just to "troll him" because he once came up with a goofy statue of Jesus smiling and winking in some dumb movie he made decades ago. So he believes that this cute anime girl pilgrim mascot was somehow born out of his stupid joke-Jesus mascot from 30 years ago. It's some tragic Main Character Syndrome that he thinks the largest religious organization in the world is doing anything to "troll him". He's not even the main character in his own movies. Anyway he then went on to say that "Buddy Jesus winked, so Luce could dilate!"
I know what you're thinking, hold on.
There's a CHANCE that Kevin Smith intended to mean like EYES dilating. Because Luce has big eyes, and "Buddy Jesus" was *winking*, so it'd be related. Right?
But how out of touch do you have to be to touch that word with a ten-foot pole?
Most people hear "dilate" and either don't know what it means, or cringe because they think of what guys who are tricked into having their genitals destroyed have to do to their fake-vaginas to prevent them from healing.
Is it possible that Kevin Smith doesn't know what dilation means? Isn't he really hip and cool?
Ah well. I hope he doesn't know, it'd be really weird and creepy to make a comment like that about a little anime girl. Kevin Smith, like many weird liberal nu-males, probably gets off to Christian girls' innocence being lost, but who cares what Kevin Smith thinks? He made like 3 movies about burnout weed addicts 40 years ago, and that's all he's ever been his entire worthless life.
Moving off topic a little, I was looking through Kevin Smith's Instagram to find a picture of him to post here (I am not going to, he's too pathetic looking and it's actually sad) and on a picture of Kevin drinking from a "Don't Talk To Me Until I've Had My
They're not less serious, they're just serious about different things. Dumber things. Gayer things. Like that guy probably would get upset if you made fun of his favorite rock band. That's all. And hey, I'd be upset if someone made fun of MY favo-- actually lmao the other day I was listening to
I've kept you way, way too long, sorry. This wasn't a good post. I need to figure out... what I want to do with The Daily Asker. I can't be writing like this every day, it's just not possible. Even if it were, it'd still be stupid.
Speaking of stupid, new HP Longbottom coming later today, pls stayed tuned. Neville just broke into Chen's office! Can the Potters and Ron escape to the Salazarium? We'll see!
KKKKKK that's all, I'll ttyl. pls take care of yourself. aaand have a comfy day. God bless, fren
hey hey, I hope you're feeling well.
Our future President, Nicholas J. Fuentes survived an assassination attempt today. Some freak who murdered a bunch of people and animals came to Nick's recently-doxed doorstep with a pistol, crossbow(lmao faggot), and incendiary weapons, and tried to get him to answer the door. After the killer failed to get Nick's attention, because Nick is a creative force who was streaming at the time on Cozy.tv, he shot at the police and was promptly sent to Hell.
Thank God Nick's okay, that's all I want to write for that story.
The other day I was watching a comfy Christmas Comicsgate stream and someone in chat said--I can't remember exactly--something like "They don't like jews, strange that their savior is a jew." Idk what chat or comment in the stream he was replying to, I wasn't paying much attention before then.
I quickly hopped over to my keyboard and #debunked this common #misinformation.
The original guy never replied, but I picked up 2 more people. One seemingly some kind of boomer Protestant who was on the "They called him rabbi and that's a jewish word checkmate" level. I can't be positive he was a Prottie, but I got that vibe because 1- he didn't seem to be intentionally disrespecting Christ the way an ePagan or Other would, and also 2- he stopped replying basically as soon as I said that Christ was God.
BUT. This isn't the guy I want to talk about, even though he was a prick and I'm glad I was there to remind him that Christians only worship God, it seemed like he might have forgotten that. (smh deeze muffuggas be sayin Catholics worship Mary and den they turn around and glaze people who spit on Christ's name,lmfao)
The person I do want to talk about wassss: I dunno. More memorable. Not a Christian, though. Let me remember some of our conversation. It won't be exact, but it'll be close...
Them starting conversation with me after I explained to the Boomer who Jesus was: "I've noticed that Evangelicals and tradcons act like wokies"
Me: "Evangelicals like Israel too much, but tradcons are cool"
Them: "Tradcons are boring"
Me: "Lol I don't really care whether something's boring."
Them: "I think people with differing opinions have a right to live."
Me: "Uhhh, some of them I guess."
Them: "(Some YouTuber I can't remember) is cool too." (Edit: It was "Sophia Narwitz")
Me: "Idk who that is, I'll take your word for it."
Them: "They're trans, but they call out woke bullshit in video games and other media"
I just stopped replying after that, that was my exciting conversation with this person.
Wow, there's a LOT TO UNPACK here, isn't there? But ackshually, we're *not* going to unpack all of it, because there really is too much. I just want to point out this "different people have a right to live" meme we always hear from like, basic bitch irreligious people, while the peaceful young leader of the most popular U.S. Christian nationalist movement has a literal fucking murderer at his door with a gun. That's really the most important part.
This goofy fuck that knows nothing about me other than I think "Tradcons are cool" letting me know "People who are different shouldn't be killed."
Anti-Christians are so disgustingly ungenerous to Christians they'll say shit like this without a second thought. Ummm... just to let you know... people who are, like, differenttttt, like, they have a right to exisssst.
No, you're not getting a "concession" out of me like that lmao. "Oh yes, as a Christian, I agree with this idea you just came up with! I never thought of it that way, wow, the Church could really learn a thing or two from you!"
You're getting a "Hmmmmm... well, maybe some of them" which is a way more reasonable answer anyway.
To talk down to someone as if they might go out and kill people is the same as calling them subhuman.
I'm not whining about myself being attacked here, even though it *was* an attack consciously or not. I know I made them uncomfortable which satisfies me because I'm an asshole. It's just such a common meme for airheads to label Christians "bigots".
It's apparently common enough now that if you tell someone you're a Christian, they might respond "Well *I* think different people should be allowed to live", as if Christianity is a synonym for bigotry. The way these retards use it, it might as well be.
Of course the two groups of Christians they don't like ("they act like wokies" just means "I don't like them") are ones that are outspoken. So to put my lobster hat on for a sec, it's OK to be a Christian, as long as you keep it to yourself, bigot.
The answer's "No", I'm sorry. These fucking libertarians, man. Why do they hang out in Right-wing spaces? Because they're tolerated. The Left knows better than to tolerate them. What does "woke" mean to the lolbert? It just means "having standards", any form of rejection or shame or denial of desire, it's entirely different than the Right's idea of "woke". The lolbert is okay with girls being tricked into having their breasts sawn off as long as it happens after they turn 18, or with parental consent. Which is why this person enjoys watching an epic trans YouTuber "call out bullshit". They probably think that the 4 drag queens who voted for Trump are BASED and REDPILLED, because they totally reject the FASCIST Left. And no offense to that YouTuber, idk anything else about them & they Have A Right To Live, but ffs we're not speaking the same language.
Anyway, enough of my whining, I should be thankful that no-one tried to murder me like they tried to murder Nick. I do think the dehumanization of Christians is a -- something for Christians to keep in mind, and instead of being apologetic or defensive of your religion, Ohhh I'm sorry I'm a Christian we're really not all so bad ooooh-- no, you should really start coming from a place of power, a default position. Because it's there for you, Christianity does have it. You don't have to be *cruel* about it, but be unassailable instead of bending over backwards to appease someone who hates you. And I'm uh-- this is *kinda* a different topic, but don't ever scramble to out-logic some dumb faggot who says "magic skydaddy" to you as if they're actually interested. For a while, on the same YT channel, there was a guy who'd show up in the comments called "The Speeding Atheist"(carfag) and whenever there was some kind of "God bless you!" or "I'll pray for you!" comment, he'd reply to it with entry-level Problem of Evil schtick. And because Christians really aren't bigoted enough, people would try to engage him in honest discussion. Something Christians have to realize is that when you're wishing someone well, and someone comes along to interfere with that with a carefully-rehearsed script, you're not going to save their soul. I'd argue that it's your duty to your fellow man to do what I did to The Speeding Atheist and relentlessly mock them, every time they reply to someone, until they never show up in the comment section again to shit on another "I'll pray for you" comment for someone's sick wife. That's the morally correct thing to do, because he's going to upset and offend a lot of old Christian grandmas who won't stand up to him, and he's going to waste the time of a lot of younger people who still haven't learned that "debating" on the Internet isn't real, so it's up to you to make him feel embarrassed by LMAOing at him until he runs away forever.
Stand up for yourself, Christian man. That's all. Or at least stand up for Christianity, because every time a Redditor gets to add a tally mark to his Internet Arguments Won board, it emboldens him to hurt more people.
Anyway, anything else you wanna talk about? Some vidya? I... caught most of the Unowns in Crystal Clear. I've never gotten all of them, so I don't actually know what's going to happen. You could say it's... unown. The Ruins of Alph are freakin SPOOKY, man. I *love* that the first wall says "ESCAPE" and when you fall down-- freakin "There is a strange presence here.." That's GOLD. That's pure gold. Just *slightly* spooky, but more of a mystery feeling, you know? You know what I mean.
I realized I'm playing an OUTDATED version of Crystal Clear, though. The updated ones are on the dev's discord. So I had to join the discord lmao. I honestly can't stand that, but I do understand it, I guess it's very convenient to manage releases and receive feedback, address questions, etc. Really everything you need to do. It's not like you can't just join it and leave, too. So "I honestly can't stand that" isn't uh-- no, I can stand it, it's fine.
Idk if/when I'll try out the new release, but it's cool that you can keep your save file.
I love Gen 2, man. Mother of God, I know a certain amount of it is nostalgia, and I'm definitely going to give the later gens more of them a chance when I have time, but even the original Pokemon Crystal feels perfect to me, never mind this mod that somehow makes it even better. Those old sprites are just sooo *right* to me, the music is great(except I actually *hate* the bike song for interrupting all the good town themes), the DAY/NIGHT CYCLES? WHICH *WEREN'T* IN THE FOLLOWING GENERATION? The towns at night with the lights on in the windows are justAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH it's peak comfy.
Okay that's enough, I'm wasting too much of our time. Uhhhhh... definitely a Longbottom later. Reminder to self-- "It's like picking a sports team".
I'll ttyl, pls take care and have a comforting day. God bless fren
--Renato Moicano, 2024
hey fren. I hope you're feeling ok.
I've got a bit of a headache, but I just took something so maybe I'll feel better. I'm gonna increase the redshift on my monitor, too... that's a little less painful. Red light is better than blue light, right
I don't have anything to write about DEMOCRACY. In fact, I LOVE it now because I'm in the majority :) . I just was watching an old Money Moicano fight. He's so great.
As GAY as the UFC is, idk if there's any other sport organization that will let its athletes in a packed arena in France say "Fuck Macron, they try-- let me tell you someting brotha, they try to take God out of your country-- here's some book recommendations"
There's no more UFC fights until next year now, isn't that a bummer? I'll survive. Maybe there's some other promotion that still has fights.
What do ya wanna taaaalk about? How aBOUT... just a liiiittle UFC, maybe a KNIFE REVIEW, and some vidya, and uh, whatever?
Uhhhh... ah, Saturday was pretty wild. Like all of the fights had finishes except the women's match. And even it was pretty good.
I think the besttttt one was ... .........I'm really out of it, I can't remember his freakin name. But a lightweight from Spain, he KO's the guy with a knee, but he's so uh... he didn't realize the guy was totally donezo, and he's so ON so he gets the guy in a standing guillotine against the cage and is just punching his face for a few more seconds
It was really cool, but kinda sad since it was unnecessary.
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh whatever it was an aight card. A lot of people loved it because of all the finishes, but I don't really care about finishes, at all, so it was just a normal card to me.
LET ME TELL JU SOMETING, I CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE
I'm really out of it, maybe I need a nap.
I took a nap.
I got a new knife. I don't think I'm a knifefag, it's just that I've been carrying the same knife for 8 years and I TRIED OUT a newer version. Almost the same, but assisted opening. It's meh, it's aight(just in terms of uh, "newness", but it's still a freakin great knife) But NOW Ilol I got ANOTHA one, and it's prettyyy great. See, the problem with the first newer one is that it's still very smol, only like a 2.whatever inch blade, and the spring for the assist is so strong, that if you're not holding it tightly--which is tricky because it's so smol--it'll require a little too much force to open than it should and also jerk a bit. Because it's a smol knife, you understand? In other words, the original manual open version ACTUALLY REQUIRES LESS FORCE to open than the "assist"! Isn't that something?
BUT: the NEW NEW one is uh... bigger. So the spring isn't like, too silly, it feels appropriate for its size. You can grip it more easily in your hand, so it's easier to press the switch and cope with the uh, recoil. And it's not too big, the blade's still under 4 inches.
There's a delicate balance you have to... remember. With errday carry knives. A lot of guys walk around with Cold Steel pocket-swords dreaming of slaying a dragon to protect a princess. And it's a nice dream, but it's also so unlikely that it doesn't justify the space it takes up in your pocket. And it's not really good to be fantasizing about getting into fights.
That's why the origin-- btw, CRKT SQUID is the knife. I think it's basically perfect for a uh... normal person, who's probably going to cut open a lot of boxes and not slay any dragons.
The original CRKT Squid is perfect, but it's also a little smol. Sometimes it might be better to have something a little longer, depending on where you're going. Like if you have to worry about wild animals or pit bulls. But knives aren't really self-defense weapons against other humans unless one single guy is already on top of you with his pants off, in front of a street camera. It's always better to pee your pants and run away screaming. Even if you live in a free state and carry a gun, depending on the color of your assailant you might be better off shooting yourself. What's the old saying? "I'd rather be carried by 6 than be judged by state-funded domestic terrorists claiming to be equality activists"
If you do have a will to live though, you might as well have an extra inch on your knife while still keeping it smol. I think too many people are uh. Idk, in a defensive, apologetic mindset about knives though. "THEY'RE TOOLS NOT WEAPONS!" Yeah but don't say that, it kinda detracts from the idea that people should be carrying around weapons. Unless you live in a 3rd world country like England, you have a right to carry a knife. They're primarily tools, absolutely, but if you're ever ambushed by... a single homeless schizo, they can save your life. You and I have seen enough streetcam vids of New Yorkers being murdered where if the white liberal cuck had been carrying a knife he would have at least survived.
That said, I really don't think it's healthy to be fantasizing about self-defense situations. It'll probably make you too eager and you'll ruin your life by killing a future-astronaut trying to mug you, you when the law says you have to turn out your pockets for him.
HOWEVER, it's probably a REALLY GOOD idea to fantasize about defending yourself from wild animals. I've talked about this before: a DISTURBING amount of men, particularly British men, don't believe they can defeat a goose in combat. Something like 1/2 of British men don't think they could beat up a goose. That's INSANE. So imagine how badly they'd be raped by animals that are actually dangerous.
I'm not saying you'll stop a grizzly bear, but when a fully-grown man is carrying a knife, he can absolutely defend himself from animals like some wild dogs and cats. Maybe even geese.
In 2018, an emaciated mountain lion attacked an obese black woman and a jewish man riding their bikes in Seattle. Intially attacking the man, it ran away from him after he threw his bike at it. It came back and pounced on the woman as she tried fleeing, ripping her fat ass off her bike.
The "man" abandoned her as the mountain lion dragged her into the woods to eat her. When the police arrived, they killed the mountain lion, but the woman was long dead.
This incident would not have ended tragically if either or both of the cyclists had been carrying a knife.
A happier example of Man vs Cat happened the very next year, when a runner defended himself from a mountain lion, choking it to death with his foot. This is a much better representation of a man fighting a wild animal, since it's a man actually fighting. He got badly roughed up, but he still survived and killed it. Having a way to inflict immediate grievous stabbing wounds on the animal probably would have made the fight for his life easier.
Anyway, that's all for knifetalk rn, Uhhhhh... the Squid knives are really good, I recommend them. The original manual folding one is perfect, but I really like the bigger uh... assisted that's in black. The silver assit that's slightly-bigger than the original is a "nah". It's still good, but no, go original or bigg.
ANYWAYTOIF
...I installed Minetest. It's a ... Minecraft clone ... platform, so people make voxel games on it, right? Naturally there's some clones of Minecraft itself on it, sssso that's nice. There's one that's like the older versions of Minecraft without all the dumb new SHEEEEEEEIT. It's pretty neat, it runsss mostly well. It feels almost identical to Minecraft. And there's no gay communist splash text that I have to look at.
"TEACH YOUR FRIENDS ABOUT ANTI-RACISM!"
I'm going to teach my friends about Notch and how everything he said was literally true and YOU're the bad person for trying to unperson him, HE's not the bad person for recognizing unpleasant patterns, YOU are the bad person.
Uhhhh,, anyway it's pretty neat.
I think I still like Terraria more though! It's just very relaxing. And being able to take your character into new worlds is soooooooooooo cool. Idk if you can do that in Minecraft or not, but I just took my little Ask guy into a new world to rpe some early bosses for loot, and it was very chill. It reminds me of when I found out you can carry over your character to a new game in Diablo 1, it totally gets rid of the uh... "anxiety" of finite resources, even if there's more than plenty in a single world anyway.
Carrying over progress in games in some way, like New Game Plus, is suuuuch a nice feature in games that you can't "perfect": games where you can't collect everything and do everything, like idk, Mario or Zelda.
You know, in Ocarina of Time, you fill out that Equipment Screen, and it's just *perfect*. You have all the items, you have all the biggest quivers and bags, you've done your job, there's nothing left to do.
But in fffffffffffffucking RPGS, you'll never have anything like that, there's always *something* that can be improved on. And depending on the game, it can be a little hard for me to cope with, even though I've gotten better at it.
You know a game that'ssss... fun? Pokemon Crystal. Clear. Crystal Clear.
Today I got Celebi for the first time in my life. It wasn't a big deal for me lol. I guess for people a few years younger than me, it was like Mew.
Originally Celebi was Japan-only, but even on the original U.S. cartridges there was a glitch to get it.
The glitch is pretty fucking wildly convoluted compared to the glitch to get Mew, though. (They'd later add a way to get it in all versions, unlike Mew who was forever Japan event-only or glitch) You need a bunch of specific items and Pokemon, they've got to be in the right spots in your inventory and party, it's a fucking mess. The glitch to get Mew is so nice-and-simple, it feels like it could have been an intentional Easter egg. In fact, I still have it saved, look how simple it is:
Preparation:
Make sure you have at least one Gym Badge and are in Cerulean City.
Catch an Abra in the grassy area to the left of Nugget Bridge (Route 24) because you'll need its Teleport ability.
Avoid Certain Trainers:
Do not battle the trainer in the grass on Route 24 or the trainer with a Slowpoke on the right side of Nugget Bridge. You'll need them for the glitch.
Initiate the Glitch:
Stand above the trainer in the grass on Route 24.
Walk down and press Start at the same time when the trainer is about to see you. This should open the menu before the battle starts.
Use Abra's Teleport to return to the Pokémon Center in Cerulean City.
Trigger the Battle:
Head back to the right side of Nugget Bridge and battle the trainer with the Slowpoke. Defeat him, then use Teleport again to return to the Pokémon Center.
Encounter Mew:
Walk back towards Nugget Bridge. As you approach, the Start menu will pop up automatically.
Close the menu, and you will be engaged in a battle with a wild Mew.
Mew will be at Level 7 and only knows the move Pound. You can catch it using Poké Balls. This glitch works in Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow versions
Isn't that WILD? You basically can just play through the game normally, and before you even battle Misty's fine tomboy swimmer ass, you can catch the legendary Pokemon everyone dreamed of getting.
What a wild thing.
Anyway, that's all I've got rn I think. Right? Riiiiiight. My head's kinda been KILLing me, sorry for not writing a new Longbottom chapter. I'm gonna rest a little right meow and I'll try to write one later, I've got some funny ideas. It's coming no matter what.
I'll ttyl, pls take care of yourself and have a comforting day. God bless fren.
hey.
I hope you're well. I'm not, lemme... there
My legs are on my desk and I'm so far away from my monitor now I can barely see what I'm writing.
Nothing in the world is as emasculating as sitting at a computer, the only thing missing for me rn is "programmer socks"
it's just so fucking uncomfortable. I've complained about the ergonomics of desks before, I won't put you through any more
Uhhhh... some guy lost his YouTube channel. A comic artist. He's d-- I'm not going to name him because I'm going to be CRITICIZING him. He's a former Muslim now anti-Muslim artist and I guess he probably lost his channel for hate speech or something. Idk why specifically, but I do know that in a previous Comicsgate art auction he was auctioning off a disgusting painting of Mohammad french kissing another man. And maybe I'm insane but I just think it's gross. If I really, really, really hated Muslims with all my heart, I wouldn't buy gay porn of them. I know that's true, because I'm thinking of people I know I hate rn and I wouldn't buy any kind of picture of them at all, even if I knew that it was really edgy and would upset them.
I really am not impressed by that. i don't think I ever was. Even when I was an Atheist, I never thought "JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!!! lol xD" with a picture of 2 Jesuses having sex was funny. A less-gay example might be uh, Muhammad with a bomb turban or something. That never blew my mind.(ba-dum tsss) I just uh... I don't care for it.
To be perfectly fair, I guess that wojak meme where he's having sex with fat egirls is pretty funny, but uh... I wouldn't buy one and it's not really a uh... spiteful gay little "look what I did to your holy figure! xD" it's more like a "this is you" which can always be funny. (edit: yes, it's completely different, forget it)
I'm getting off track a little
Anyway, that guy lost his yt channel somehow, and it's whatever. But then *another* comic artist was defending him and explaining to Christians that we shouldn't like Muslims because Jesus is *just* a prophet to them. Which, sure, granted. I'd love for them to know that Christ is God. But the guy SAYING THAT is an atheist lmao. So where do you get off telling me I shouldn't like those people over there for not thinking highly enough of Christ when you think less of Him than they do?
That really rubbed me the wrong way. If you're going to rally me for some cause in the name of Christ, and you're not a Christian, the answer's probably no. And the answer *is* no, because lmao I don't really care that the guy lost his channel. If I could blink and make it come back, I guess I would, but other than that, uh. Zzzzz
I don't value, at all, uh... drawing bearded men french kissing. "HA! THIS OFFENDS MUSLIMS!" It offends *me* nigga, it's 2 men kissing. They're not even anime catboys.
Without getting too political, there's a certain kind of like, American boomer neoconservative that would uh, do a double-peace sign for the camera while a bunch of [redacted] are cumming on his face, and he's making a smug >:) face becaue he knows it's going to totally piss off those towel headed prudes who hate us for our freedom. And then later on some news story about Christians being mistreated, he'll reply "They'd NEVER do this to MUSLIMS!! Why don't they do this to MUSLIMS!!!" Uh yeah, good for them. That's your takeaway? You just want that other religion to be mistreated too? Btw any others you feel that way about, big guy? :^)
So uh, I don't care, that's all. "I might disagree with you submerging a Crucifix in a jar of piss, but by golly I'll fight to the death for your right t--" no, I don't care what happens to you, I'm not in any way supporting you, and sure I'd save you if you were being beheaded right in front of me, but uh don't be MYSTIFIED if I don't go sprinting to save you.
Now sure, idk how far this extends. Obviously I don't and can't care about EVERYONE'S feelings about EVERYTHING, but it at least extends to Gay Muhammad Art. It has to, because it's really easy for me to imagine how I'd feel if some faggot was drawing "Jesus Fucking Christ lol xD" in front of me.
And while I'm thinking about this, and the fffffking "b-b-b-b-b-but they think Jesus is just a prophet, so erm, weeeeeell? What are you gonna do about, Christians???" what kind of argument even is that? And what do you think A PAINTING OF 2 BEARDED MEN is going to do against Islam? What do you WANT it to do, and if the answer is "nothing, I just think we should be free to do it" then I don't care and if that's not the answer, really try to imagine hwo you're making other people feel for fucking once.
HA HA HAAAAAAAAA, LOOK ACKMED, IT'S YOUR BELOVED PROPHET! KISSING ANOTHER MAAAAAAN WAAAAAAAAAAAH HA HA HAAAAAAAAA!!!
I'm actually really funny. I fucking love "Wah ha ha". Anyway, that's all.
It kinda reminded me of the "Stop Asian Hate" meme where they desperately tried to drive a wedge between Asians and Whites and it didn't work at all because the stats just weren't convenient, so it immediately lost its steam.
Now it's reminding me of literally all media reports about idk, Russia
Now I'm reminding *you* not to sign up to kill strangers in another country.
Now, no-less sinister, I'm reminded of unmarried 30+ yo women giving dating advice designed, perhaps unconsiously, to keep women forever single just like they are.
And, just as guilty, eternal bachelors with gay pick-up artist yt channels
Ackkkshually the same thing happened after Destiny upset Muslims and started getting death threats from them. He and his idiot fans COULDN'T BELIEVE that Nick Fuentes and the Groypers weren't standing up for him. That's so obnoxious.
There's got to be some kind of meme template for that. Weaselly little bisexual atheist Destiny as uh, Jerry the mouse throwing a rock at a Muslim's head, and he's that big grey bull dog, and when he turns around Destiny tries to hide behind Nick Fuentes. Who is uh, Tom. The cat. Hurr hurr catboy.
So I'll uh... I want Muslims to come to Christ, and even if I didn't want that, and I instead wanted them to be Funko-pop collecting bugmen with no souls, I still don't think that insulting the prophet they adore is the way to their hearts. And I'm right.
But yea, justice for uh, that guy or whatever, I sure hope he gets his YouTube channel back so he can continue making really positive and good stuff that should exist. Fine I know that's gay sarcasm, but I really do hope he gets it back.
Terraria?
I beat all of the bosses that raped me like a revenge scene in a horror movie. It's really cooool, I have a moooount now so I can move so faaaaaast, I've got a really powerful waaaaand that's like a freakin magic fire hose, my health is maxed, I've kinda got a uh... you know, I feel pretty confident lol. And I know I'm still missing out on soooooooo much of the game in terms of crafting and stuff. I've definitely gotten way further than I ever did in Minecraft.
It's just a neato game, it's a lot of fun to dig down and find new weaaaapons and stuff-- oh and there's FAIRIES that will lead you to treasure too. Isn't that cool? And there's so many NPCs, I've got like a dozen now and they all have stuff they liiiiiike so you can make them more haaaaappy and they'll sell more stuuuuuuffffff and
okay that's enough out of me. Crystal Clear update? Iuhh... I got a Larvitar. How about that? Tyranitar was one of my favorite Pokemon when I first played Gen 2. I really don't remember for certain but I vaguely remember catching a SHINY one, which might have been my only shiny besides the Red Gyarados.
Did you know there's a Pokemon Center store in Hiroshima? The Red Gyarados is on their logo.
There used to a Pokemon Center store in New York City, but it became the uh, Nintendo-whatever store. It was vandalized during the George Floyd riots.
I wonder if the one in Hiroshima was ever vandalized during a race riot over a violent criminal accidentally overdosing while resisting arrest after trying to defraud a small business.
The street view's very pretty, there's a train station right outside. I can't say for certain, but I imagine it doesn't smell like New York City smells.
He mugged a pregnant woman with a gun, and buildings burned for him and people died for him.
The justifications for the Atom bombs aren't good, I've never been convinced by them. It was pure evil.
Hiroshima doesn't smell like New York City.
Hey, I hope you're doing all right.
I be doin' alright, I be doin' ok
And as long as I can live to see another day
I be doin' alright I be doin' ok
ok
BACK IN THE 16TH CENTURY, WAY WAY BACK IN THE DAY
When I was in middle school, I had to go to the nurse's office during health class because I felt light headed.
Because of those horrible anatomy drawings of penises lmao
And the phrase "ENGORGED WITH BLOOD" to describe erections. I was a squeamish kid and I didn't like to think about my penis being ENGORGED with BLOOD.
It's just very... I dunno, I still don't like it. I guess I was fine with the anatomy of VAGINAS, but when you're making me think of MY body parts like that, it's not pleasant.
Boners were like the coolest thing in my life, and now you're like "Erm, ackshually it's your penis being ENGORGED... WITH BLOOD!"
Even the word "penis" is just disgusting to me. Cock is an AWESOME word, I love my COCK, it's so powerful. It's like a club you swing around. But PENIS sounds like something so small and pathetic, doesn't it? It's a perfect fit for those horrible flacid illustrations.
Now all of this is to say that I saw the trailer for the movie The Gorge and I thought it looked pretty cool.
I like the premise, I uh... I just like it. It feels like something I'd think of, so it's great.
A lot of guys would love a job where you're just sitting in a tower in a gorgeous forest for a year. And you also have a girl across from you in her own tower and you can flirt with her, but she's so far away she can't annoy you by talking too much? It's like heaven.
Except I guess you're literally guarding the gates of Hell.
It's from the director of The Black Phone, and thaaaat was a pretty good movie. It actually wasn't as scary as I would have liked, but uh everything else about it was cool. It was just a good movie. Aaaand THE GORGE looks pretty cool too. The story feels like something that'd come out years ago. Uhh... it kinda reminds me of that movie THE GREAT WALL. I love walls. I love things being kept out of places, you know what I mean? Sit back, relax, shoot some monsters as they pathetically try to scale your Big Beautiful Wall(BBW). The girl in the Great Wall was so freakin hot, who is she... Jing Tian. She looked frrrr--God help me I'm sorry.
I don't trust movies very much. The guys who make daily-videos about how woke everything is have *nothing* on me, which is why they're still surprised by redheads being replaced by blacks in remakes and I'm more surprised when I see a trailer for a movie that doesn't make me sick to my stomach.
There's a kind of person who hates "woke" stuff but really enjoys Jordan Peele movies because they can't tell how much he hates White people.
Or movies like The Witch, which I admit I liked when I was younger.
Sam Hyde's review of The Witch is actually really good. I'd call it the Authoritative review of The Witch.
Oh, -- am I skipping around too much now? Probably, sorry. I'm gonna do it anyway.
MillionDollarExtreme's Christian arc is really cool. Nick's back to the Catholicism he was raised in, Charls and Sam have always been like uh... very anti-Reddit and if not self-professed Christians then pretty pro-Christian. Charls got me back into C.S. Lewis and had a great podcast with outspoken Christian Doug TenNapel, one of Sam's favorite authors is Gene Wolfe, and he's always criticizing anti-Christianity. Nick's attending Mass again and has his daughter in Catholic school. He always seemed like the least-religious guy, but now he's openly professing his faith in Jesus Christ.
It's just very cool. A lot of us uh... kinda grew up with them. Now you go to one of their vids, you see a bunch of "Christ is King" comments with hundreds of likes, with some replies that are probably the angry gay-lolbert centrist "I Can't Tall If Sam Is Serious" portion of the fanbase, but that's just a minority.
Eventually I have to write about the "I can't tell" thing, that's really not good. To not be able to reeeeead people. Idk if it can just be blamed on autism, it's really wild to me how often I've seen "Ummm... is Sam Hyde serious?". Idubbz famously got trolled by Sam for an entire weekend because he was too retarded to see he was being fucked with when he just wanted to make a gay little whiny leftist hitpiece documentary about this horrifying alt-right comedian who horrifyingly joked that White people deserve to live("I can't tell, I HOPE he was joking!!!"). It actually makes me mad lmao, it makes me like disgusted when I see "I can't tell" as if he's ever actually saying anything especially crazy but *also* because you're basically admitting you're retarded. I don't care rn let's think about it later.
Anyway, I'm gonna go catch Lapras in Union Cave in Crystal Clear, okay? I know, it's not Friday. I changed the clock.
Crystal Clear is so much freaking fun, we have to talk about it later. Idk it might be like, the best mod for a game ever.
THAT'S ENOUGH I'm gonna go I'll ttyl
pls take care of yourself, God bless fren
she once asked me
I said I feel like a panther trapped in a dog's world
Hey hey. hey. I hope you're feeling well.
I was just thinking of a uh... media day for some card I can't remember at all, and a reporter asked Justin Gaethje how it feels to be Mexican. lmao. Or how it feels to be REPRESENTING Mexicans as a fighter.
It was such a fucking weird question.
Justin Gaethje's mother is Mexican. And his father is German. He was not born in Mexico, he doesn't live in Mexico, you'd never know he was even half Mexican by looking at him.
"How does it feel to be representing Mexicans"
Actually I don't remember if it was SPECIFICALLY Mexicans, or LATINO people in general. I don't know which would have been a more retarded question. I guess probably the latter, since Justin then would be representing a broader group of people, and it'd include Brazilians, who make up half the fucking fighters in the company.
But even if it was Mexicans, who comes to your mind when you think of Mexican UFC fighters? Maybe idk, Brandon Moreno, the first male Mexican UFC champion, or Alexa Grasso the first female Mexican champion/foot model? Both of them are still ranked like 2 or 3 in their divisions, too. They're actually WAY more relevant than Justin is-- I'm sure they were at the time, too, I don't really remember when it was but I'M SURE they were more relevant then too
It was just so out of left field for the reporter to ask that of a guy who's like, a normal American mutt. He's NOT Brandon Moreno fighting out of and for Mexico--which is cool, Brandon's great. But they're two totally different people. And this BITCH walmao she was like trying to like Mexicanify him.
"Justin! Your mother is Mexican, how does it feel to be a bipoc fighter?"
He just ignored the question entirely and said he's glad to have fans all over the world lol.
I like Justin Gaethje. He's a wholesome Christian lad.
I'm trying to think of why that question annoyed me so much. And it's like, a bunch of little reasons that make it a perfectly-annoying question. Placing a burden on him he didn't ask for, assigning an identity to him that erases his fucking fatherlmao and yes, that *is* what she was doing whether she intended to or not. When she scurried back to whatever shit site she works for and writes "Latinx Fighter Justin Gaethje!" it's literally a half-truth, and adding into a deep paragraph in the article that no-one's even going to read up to "...oh and his father is German" isn't good enough, I don't like it.
Sorry, doesn't matter.
My shoulder hurts so I'm in a bad mood, that's all.
That's how it feels to be me.
I was playing Terraria a bit moar earlier. Every boss I encounter rapes me. But it's still fun. Mostly. I at least defeated a GOBLIN ARMY. How about that? A GOBLIN ARMY comes and attacks your base. Everyone loves a good self-defense situation.
Iiiiii-- what else? I messed with my old POWKIDDY that I thought wasn't saving anymore. But it seeeeeeeeemssss to be okay now. I played a little POKEMON RED, ya know? It's strange that such a simple game will always feel good to play. Compare it to uh... i dunno, what?... Grand Theft Auto 6, which isn't out yet. I'm so uninterested in Grand Theft Auto 6 you'd have to pay me a lot of money to play it. But I'm sure I'll get whatever the next Zelda is, and enjoy it.
Even when I was a kid idk how much I enjoyed Grand Theft Auto games. 4 was out, I didn't even finish it, I just ran around and did side missions, got bored, and stopped playing it.
It's not because it's open-world, BotW is open-world, and I FAMOUSLY love that game, everyone knows exactly how much I love that game, I wrote a bestselling book about it.
I guess this is just a ... I don't really like Null from kiwifarms much anymore, but he coined the term "cattlenigger" and I think it's probably what I would call people excited for a new GTA game. Whereas important people, geniuses, uh, rock stars, fitness models, heart surgeons, the MVPS of the world, would want to play Zelda or decades-old Pokemon games. Nintenbros.
Okay I'll let you go.
I really want some cereal. Longbottom later if I can get my shoulder to stop making me want to die
I'll ttyl, pls take care of yourself and have a relaxing day
God bless fren
What are your thoughts on... game configuration menus displaying pictures of cute girls? And right-clicking on them, and a text box pops up with her asking if she can call you "Big Brother"?
hey fren I hope you're well today. I had this screenshot of Ys VI saved and I never used it so I'm using it now. I take too many screenshots of stuff and never use them, you know what I mean? I should make a... "Screenshots" page and it's just entirely jrpgs and retarded YouTube comments.
Let's go over UFC real quick, okay? Just real quick, and then we can talk about something else. It was actually a really fun card.
Actually, FIRST we can talk about vidya or something, in case you don't CARE about UFC, and if you want, the fight recaps will. be at the bottom. I'll do that.
So uh, play any good games lately? I wassssss playing some Terraria. It's fun. It's a little harder to get used to its... menuing and sheit than Minecraft, but I'm used to it now so it's pretty relaxing. You know what I like, besides not starving to death? My weapons and equipment not breaking. I like that a lot.
I don't want to just use Minecraft to uh... describe it via comparison, but I'm going to anyway: it feels more rewarding than Minecraft with less commitment. Like right away you can build a few simple houses and merchants will start to come live there. From there, without having to worry about food or equipment degradation, you can say, sell stuff to said merchants, who never run out of money to pay you or goods to sell you.
In Minecraft you have to be lucky enough to stumble upon a town of jewish squidwards.
It's not a fair comparison, but I'm making it anyway because I have no reason not to. Anyway, Terraria is prettttty fun.
What else? Uh. Digimon cry when they die. That upsets me. I wish they'd die silently. That sounds like an insane thing to say on its own, but really I just wish they *didn't die* at all. I woke up late to find that my Alphamon died, which is great, because now I can unlock NEW Digimon. It's not like I miss him or anything lmao. I just wish they didn't have to die. It's just uh, weird that they basically just eat and die. "Just like humans!" says the Redditor. Digimon don't make gay nihilistic comments on the Internet. What they do have in common with humans is that they never really die.
Okay I'm gonna go or something lol. Uhhhhhhhhhh... idk I'm just a little tired the last few days, sry. It's been too long without a long*bottom* so I'll try to correct that later, I juuuuust need a quick nap. here's my dumb recap of the DUMB fake sport that I watch:
So Kennedy Nzecjcuckuuckuequeuwu KO'd Lukasz Brzeski, proving once again that heavyweights are just fat retards fluke KOing each other. Not that Kennedy *isn't* better than him, because he is, it's just that heavyweights are fat retards fluke KOing each other. Right? WRONG: Kennedy thanked Christ, making him cool plus he's not even really fat, he's a true heavyweight.
Okay, what's next. How about the biggest age-difference in UFC history? Clay Guida's over 40 and Chase Hooper is like, 20 something. And it was just a funny fight. Clay's moving around like a savage, hair swinging wildly behind him. And uh, Chase just raped him in r1, that's all. "If one man can hold you down..."
Michael Chiesa proved me wrong, because even though he'd BAD, I FORGOTTTTT to actually look at Max Griffin lmao Max started out strong, but gassed and Chiesa subbed him in r3.
Tiny little Joshua Van beat the fucking shit out of Cody Durden and then like Kennedy, thanked his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. One judge even gave him a 10-8 round. From STRIKING ON THE FEET. Vancels up big.
Eryk Anders sucks, but he survived a baaaad r1 and then proceeded to immediately knock down and ground and pound Chris Weidman for 4 minutes and 50 seconds before the ref stopped the fight DEPRIVING Chris of r3, even though Chris looked pretty fine, all things consisdered. lol.
Aljamain Sterling thought he was in a grappling match, so he lost because Evloevactually threw a few punches.
Vicente Luque proved me *right*, he's *not* washed, and in r1 he knocked down and subbed the guy the Rock bought a house for. Which is a little sad because Themba Gorimbo takes care of his autistic brother. It's hard to believe that fighters are humans with problems.
Speaking of problems, Nate Landwehr has a big one. And it's called "Getting beaten up by Dooho Choi for three rounds"
My dream came true and the Korean Superboy actually looked great in there, completely outclassing Nate on the feet. It was a lot like the Joshua Van fight, I assume, because my memory just says "he beat him up for 3 rounds", the difference being Choi got a finish by getting on top of him and elbowing him. To death.
Speaking of getting beaten up for 3 rounds, Bryce Mitchell proved the Earth was flat by slamming Kron Gracie onto the back of his head as Kron tried to... ... ...pull Bryce down into his guard?
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu doesn't work on its own anymore. The LEGENDARY Gracie family is collectively washed.
It just seems not-very-efficient to train to-- when the perfect opportunity presents itself-- wrap your arm around your opponent's shin and pull it into their armpit while you're holding their hands together with your feet and pressing down on their throat with your forehead in order to make them tap.
Maybe with different rules and different uh, round times, or no rounds at all, BJJ on its own can still be uh, what it used to be. But at least in the UFC, with 5 minutes rounds, simply using... idk American wrestling or RUSSIAN SAMBO to pull someone to the ground and NO-MATTER-WHAT-ELSE-HAPPENS, you've at least used up a minute of the round and gotten a minute of control time-- that's like, KILLER in the UFC. Combine that with being a good striker, and that's unstoppable.
Hug him against the cage. Dry hump him. What's he going to do about it? Lose, that's what he's going to do.
UFC is so gay.
Speaking of the modern Frenchman, Ciryl Gane lost to Alexander Volkov, despite having beaten him in the past. He had a pretty good first round, arguably winning it. But then Volkov just, somehow, outstruck him and took him down in the next two. It wasn't at all a DOMINATION or anything, but Gane just didn't look great. Apparently he broke his toe or something in the first round, idk. He did well, but Volkov was just better.
Now, because the UFC is fake like the WWE, the judges declared Gane the winner. It doesn't affect me because lmao I don't gamble. Or, you know, pay to watch fights. But imagine having bet a ton of money on Volkov. You watch him win--like there's no debate whatsoever, everyone watching it knew Volkov won, Ciryl and his corner knew Volkov won, Dana White knew Volkov won-- and think you're getting a sweet payout, only to find out that the judges-- including an evil bitch with a reputation of "controversial" scoring in BOXING-- wrote down "Ackshually sweaty, he lost :) "
IMAGINE.
You can't bet on fights in the UFC, you have to bet on fights *and* judging at the same time. That's so wiiiiiild, isn't it?
We hear these stories about fixed boxing matches back in the day and it feels "unreal". But this is our own time. I saw someone put it well: Close high-profile boxing matches like Fury vs Usyk are more reliably scored these days than UFC. If you've been following me for a while, you've probably seen me complaining about robberies at least a dozen times: *I'M* not crazy, everyone agrees with me about all of those cases, AND *THIS* one in particular is the worst robbery I can even remember.
It must suck gambling lmao Anyway, idk it really sucks for Volkov. Guy's freakin great, on a winning streak, he's like 100 years old, he's had 50+ fights iirc. And they just uh, fuck him lol. They just fuck him. I'm not mad at Ciryl Gane, I love watching him fight. But I watched him lose and be declared the winner. And that's just so obnoxious to me lol. These fucking judges man, they need to be held accountable. Right? Or not, I don't care lol they're not getting any of my money.
Shavkat defeated Ian Machado Garry by implementing the "hug him and eat up time" strategy I mentioned earlier, proving me correct as usual. Uhhhhh-- it was a boring fight and everyone hated it, but I liked it, they both did okay. For what it was. Garry became the first man Shavat couldn't finish though. How about that? Isn't that neato?
Finally, Pantoja danced onto Asakura's back like a spider and choked him out. We love Pantoja. But.
I'm becoming more and more convinced that it was a humiliation ritual to put a spotlight on male Asian fighters not having a UFC champion, particularly targeted at Japan. "Look what we did to your hero, boi. Yeeeee, das rite das rite, you better start putting up our anal pride flags or we comin for ya'll das rite 2 bombs wasnt enough sheeeeeit what is dis annie-may shit? We gona takes dat--" Why am I typing this like a black man, obviously they're not the puppet masters in my imaginary but probably-real and certainly based on actual-U.S. foreign policy scenario.
I'm just being silly. There's plenty of other avenues for Japan to be brought low it doesn't have to come from a fighting organization.
Oh, sorry I forgot uh... Dominic Reyes The Only Man To Beat Jon Jones beat up Anthony Smith. (+thanked Christ, cool very based) Like he just clobbered him. Anthony's a complete meme but he's also had I think like 60 freakin fights and he might have retired. So it's sad. It's sad. Fighters with a zillion fights are rare, I think it's more impressive than perfect records with far fewer fights. ...he has a lot of losses too, sure.
iDK if Dom can become champ though, his chin isn't trustworthy. If he did though, it'd probably be the greatest comeback in the history of the UFC. So heeeere's hoping.
OKKKKKKKKK that's all.
I'll ttyl fren, pls take care and have a comfortable day. God bless.
Hey fren, I hope you're well today.
Me? I'm not, because Kai Asakura is going to LOSE to Alejandre "The Cannibal" Pantoja.
So, if you want, we'll go over the UFC fights tonight.
BUT FIRST: Uhhhh... idk lol. I've been playing Terraria. It's pretty enjoyable. It's more than just 2D Minecraft, it's uh... like there was a BLOOD MOON, and defending my house from zombies that suddenly are able to open your doors was really fun.
Because I had a magic boomerang aaaand a spear aaaaand-- well, combat was never the best part of Minecraft, I'm just saying it's uh, prettyyy satisfying in Terraria
Also, Minecraft's kinda. Shit now? When I last played it, they'd added like, flying faggotmonsters at night, so you can't just relax on top of your structures anymore lol. Like idk but I did see one person say something like "It's the only game that's gotten worse over the years", but I was never SUPER into it, so I can't judge it too much. It WAS fun to set up wheat fields on a little lake and build up your propertah.
However, Terrairi-- am I spelling this right? TERRARIA. TERRARIA. Terraria takes an immediate W just because it's DRM-free. So I have it, and I never have to worry about Microsoft either stealing it from me, or worse, NOT stealing it from me, but placing gay communist splash messages on the title screen that I have to look at.
"Educate your friends on anti-racism!"
You really don't want me to do that.
"Your gender is valid!"
Meaningless words.
"You are valid!"
Unhealthy mindset.
"Amplify and listen to BIPOC voices!"
No.
"Learn about allyship!"
I am your enemy.
Sry, it's just nice that I can start Terraria and one of those messages won't appear.
Thankfully I found a mod to take them out, but-- I don't play Minecraft anymore anyway.
What was I even.........................
Anyway, Terraria's fun so far. I made a GRAPPLING HOOK and I found a DOUBLE JUMP thing and uh, it's just a neato game.
And you don't starve to death, so that's nice too.
Okay, let's just get to the FIGHTS, right?
Here, look at dis.
NZECHUHUJUEU shouldn't be THAT much of a favorite, should he? He got KO'd at light heavyweight. Sure Lukazszcs is shit, but. ACTUALLY Lucasz really IS shit, he's 1-4 in the UFC. Okay, NAZecuchuku by KO, gotta be.
Chiesa vs Griffin? Meh. Griffin.
JOSHUA VAAAAAAN, I'M PUTTING IT ALL ON JOSHUA VAAAAAN, I BELIEVE IN JOSHUA VAN
Weidman vs Anderssss... lmao idk Weidman's a crafty craftsman. Weidman via crafts mac n cheese.
Brown vs Battle? BRYAN BATTLE WOULD NEVER LOSE TO A JAMAICAN, TEACH YOUR FRIENDS ABOUT ANTI-RACISM.
Movsar's going to kill Aljo, but I'd really love for the opposite to happen...
Luque vs Gorimbo? LUQUE IS NOT WASHED, he's goin--... yeah, whatever it's not like I'm betting anything. Luque.
Reyes vs Smith? Smith's the perfect opponent for Reyes to continue his comeback tour on. Which sucks because I love Smith. But it has to be this way.
Landwehr vs CHOI? DOOHO CHOI WILL SHOCK THE WORLD AND BEAT UP NATE LANDWEHR is what my heart says, but I think Landwehr's probably going to overpower him and uh, knock him down and it'll get stopped and that's. that.
Bryce The Firmament Mitchell vs Kron BJJ-Only Gracie. Uh, Bryce is going to CLOBBER him
Cereal Gane aaaand Alexaaaanderrr
i DIDNT see their first fight, so idkk... Volkov looked great against Sergei, but Sergei's not as fast as Ciryl, right?
Seeing Ciryl beat up Tai Tuivasa was just beautiful. He was working him like a video game, but Tai also knocked him down, sooooo. idk, Ciryl beat him once I guesssss he'll probably do it again. Can heavyweights really improve that much? No. BUT... idk why does it feel like Ciryl's not taking his career seriously? That's my imagination, nvm. Uh, Ciryl probably
SHAVKAT RAKMHONONV VS Ian Machado Garrryyyy
If Ian shocks the world, it'll be sooooooo funny. obviously Shavkat's wins are more impressive... but they're both undefeated, and Garry has more wins *in the UFC*. Idk though, I only saw Shavkat in trouble once against Neal, and he turned it into a finish. i justtt... it'slol i'm not betting money IAN GARRY'S GONNA WIN
and finally
i just think Pantoja's too TUFF. UFC posted a fight of Asakura's and it only lasted like 10 seconds, he just broke the other guy's jaw in the first exchange. And that's great, but what, are you going to break Pantoja's jaw, or is he going to grapple-rape you for 25 minutes? Pantoja probably has some good scar tissue for Kai to open up that could mess him up, but it's . it's a big ask.
come in and your first fight is against the dominant champion of the division. I saw someone say they set it up because they KNOW Pantoja will beat Kai, which will discredit Rizin. But I don't buy that, I think the UFC would LOVE to have Kai Asakura as the champion.
They don't need MORE business in Brazil, and Asakura's a social media star in Japan. BUT HOW IS HE SUPPOSED TO BEAT PANTOJA
And what if he does? Manel Kape, the current #9, has already KO'd Asakura. You look at the Flyweight rankings and it's like: I don't trust Kai Asakura to beat ANY of these guys, so even if he DOES beat Pantoja, HOW IS HE GOING TO BEAT ROYVAL? MORENO?
THIS IS WHY ID DFREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THIS IS WHY I WANT THE UFC TO STAY OUT OF ASIAlmao
they're going to DRIP-FEED fighters into the roster, and when they lose, because EVERYONE loses, it's going to be "ohoho look they can't fight!" even though every other loser of the night was white or black. And i have to DEFEND azn MEN because they make azn WOMEN, and ermm, it's called being a good ally :^) Learn about allyship
Also they don't litter or commit crime. It's actually insane how little crime they commit compared to other races, especially with the level of crime committed *against them*. Teach your friends about anti-racism!
Anyway, idk, Kai Asakura's strong, and he's bigger than Pantoja. I'm just DOOMPILLING, I'm not being fair. I just wish he hadn't lost to fucking Manel Kape of all people.
anyway, uihhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-- enjoy the fights tonight.
Let's go, Japan?!
have a comfy day fren, God bless.
hey fren hope you're well today.
I just took my dog for a walk. It's very cold out, which is kinda refreshing because it's usually terribly hot.
Uhhhh... what do you wanna talk about? Vidya? Fighting? All of the above?
Lemme give you a DIGIupdate first. Uhhh... my Cranniumon X digivolved into Alphamon. Do you know what this means?
It means I have 3 fully-evolved Digimon on muh device now. So there's nothing left for any of them to do but drop dead.
Isn't that something? Lmao. I wish there was a way to just... idk, "release" them or something.
Wasn't that always wild in the Pokemon games, how you could RELEASE them? I don't think I've EVER in my entire life released a Pokemon back into the wild. How does a person even run out of space in Bill's PC?
What a world. Nothing left for them to DIE. I could just have them battling in the COLOSSEUM on their own until they die. It'd make it easier on me. Idk, maybe that's how they'd prefer to go anyway instead of just waiting around for me to forget to pick up their poop 5 times.
"Luckily, Draco had his EDC titanium breacher pry bar with paracord handle tied via paracord to his paracord belt."
That's a preview for the next Longbottom. It's not ready yet. Idk what Draco's going to be breaching. I feel a ... something. I'm not going to want to leave these characters, but I'm also not going to be able to write anything serious in a Harry Potter fanfic. I might... idk. Soul-transfer them lmao. Like just write them into another story and change the non-original character names. That works, right? They're the exact same characters, they just changed their names. That's totally a good way to move from a fanfic to an original story. SOUL TRANSFER NO JUTSU
I was thinking of writing a RACISM IN UFC post, but lmao who cares. You know, some soyjak YouTubers and Redditors accuse UFC fans of being RACIST (what they mean by this is *White* UFC fans are racist), but when you take off your jakglasses and actually pay attention to the comments and the chats, you VERY EASILY can see a reflection of normal IRL racial in-group preference: black guys prefer black fighters, Latinxxxos prefer Latinxoaxo fighters, suddenly you see a flood of Korean comments in a Korean fighter's post-fight interview when you never see them anywhere else, Muslims are extremely proud of the Dagestanis, White soyjaks heckin love everyone especially if they're not White, and White people prefer White fighters. That's the reality.
Me? I love Christian fighters so when Jon Jones said he's proud to be a Christian American, it really eased the pain of seeing him kick Stipe to death. Stipe's a Christian too though, so I'd be happy either way.
It must be fucking miserable being a Redditor UFC fan. All of the fighters are religious and conservative, Dana White's best frens with Trump, and if you look too deeply at who owns the UFC you're forced to come face-to-face with right-wing conspiracy theories(reality).
I've got some funny stories about UFC comment race wars, but maybe I'll save those for the page if I ever make it.
Let's moooooooooove on though, what else is there...
it's so freakin cold gimme a sec to warm up.
For the last 8 years, I've carried a CRKT Squid knife (like Rei from HP Longbottom). It's really great. A very nice little knife.
To TREAT myself though, I just got an *assisted open* Squid. You know, you start to open it either normally or with the...FLIPPER... and it springs open. Which is legally distinct from those knives that I can't think of that are banned... ah geeze, gimme a sec... switchblades. They're totally, 100% different than switchblades despite being effectively identical, because you press on a *button-like protrusion* of the blade instead of a button that's not part of the blade.
I don't uhhhhhh... idk if I really like it lol. Sure it's marginally-easier to open than the original. I can move my thumb slightly-less for it to flip open, or use my index finger to press on the NOT-A-BUTTON. Idunno. There's something to having the full control of the opening, isn't there? Maybe there's not. Also the spring is so strong compared to the size that's like silly lmao. This blade that's not even 3 inches is flying open with enough force to break your nose.
What do you think? What kinda pocket knife do YOU carry?
Uhhhhhh... vidya? idk, I'm gonna dick around in Terraria a bit and try to play some Ys: Oath in Felghana. The one thing shitty about Linux is that it can be hard to get cutscenes working in games-- I couldn't see them in Ys VI, I had to look them up.
Thankfully, I got them working in Xanadu Next which is an increeeeeedible game, but I think the fix I used for it isn't working fo-- and I
Forget it. I'll ttyl. Pls take care of yourself aaand have a relaxing day. God bless fren.
hey hey, hope you're well fren.
Uhhhh, did you have a nice Thanksgiving?
What are some things you're thankful for?
I wish I could be thankful for more Digimon options, but we get nothing over here 😩
Some of the Digimon Colors or Digimon Pendulums are going for hundreds of dollarydoos on eBay. I do like the cheap ones I have, but it'd be cool to have one that's in color, that's rechaaaaargeable, that has a neat little shake gimmick.
The bands are just-- I can't do it, right? I'd gladly wear it while I'm working out to train it, but I've heard they DIE in a single day if you're not wearing them, and 1- I'm not wearing a toy in public, I'm no-longer big enough to pull it off, and 2- I've become reliant on this smartwatch that I never told you I got, despite me talking about how stupid and gay smartwatches are.
anyway THANKSGIVING, Happy Thanksgiving. What am I actually thankful for?
idk, everything that I constantly take for granted until the one day a year I'm reminded to be thankful?
The computer I'm typing this on is nice, I've got a nice desk covered in nice things. Nice practical things like quality Japanese pencils I never use and nice toys like-- let's see, a Sakuya figure, a Cyberfrog, a Vyzpzz(his wasp enemies), aaaa little Shadow from Kingdom Hearts, a Deku Scrub Link, a chibi Annie Leonhart (best girl besides Misaka, you can't count Misaka because it's not fair), a tiny Cthulhu totem as described in the story... a Digimon X with a Meg-- yeah, I *AM* thankful for all these things, even if they are stupid, because I live a life where I can have stupid things while other people have nothing.
My aches and pains, my stomach issues? Other people can't walk and need to eat and shit with tubes.
It's very... hm. I take a lot for granted. I take everything for granted, and I'm already just. Imagine losing your toes. I was watching The Sopranos and AJ helped pour acid on this kid's toes, they had to be amputated. Imagine that. Then he laughed at the kid walking around on crutches. Later, he gets traumatized because one of his friends says "nigger" and they beat up a black guy. Beat up, not poured acid on, just beat up. The acid was fine, the racism wasn't. There's a lot of (I believe) unintentional messages in The Sopranos, it's very early-2000s with its social messaging. Vito's a complete degenerate scumbag cheating on his wife with God-knows how many men, but homophobia is bad. Sure, he didn't have to die, but so much screen time is just "Hey look at these dumb fat Italians being sooOoooo ignorant and backwards about everything!" Tony gives some crime statistics to his daughter, after her bike is stolen by a black kid, and she gets the last word in the discussion by blaming the long-debunked "it's not race, it's poverty" theory. An Evangelical preacher comes to annoy Tony in the hospital, and for no reason, Tony starts defending abortion because "what if they ban Viagra" and arguing with him about the age of the Earth. Okay, the Evangelical wasn't Italian-- that's the only time Italians are allowed to be the good guys in the show, when they're opposing the Catholicism they profess to argue with Evangelicals, the Christians who are hated even more by the producers of the show.
Why am I talking about this rn?
anyway, I'm thankful for... what's close to me rn...
my doggo, she's very cute and yellow and white and big.
YOU if you're reading this. You know the dopamine hit Iget from people liking my posts, like Wizardbro and Lesserbro? It's a nice little uh-- it's like getting a piece of chocolate randomly. You guys are real SWEET, ya know that?
I'm thankful I have some family that loves me. I was invited to my cousin's, but I just wasn't feeling well enough to go. You know, the Eternal Tummy. She's less than an hour away, I'd like to spend more time with her but idklmao lately I've had this issue with cars, the road gives me a freaking headache, everything just gives me headaches and I'm tired from the moment I wake up to the moment I --
I'm complaining in the Thanksgiving post, I know.
My mom got me a new cross for Christmas (She gives me my Christmas present months in advance). I like it, but it's a little heavy. Heavier than my old one+my Saint Raphael medal. Oy vey my scrawny little neck.
It's still silver, I like that. I've always liked silver more than gold. I like the word "silver" more than the word "gold", and I like the color more. So it's very nice that it's less expensive than gold.
It's also an IMPORTANT part of Ys: The silver sword, armor, and shield are CRUCIAL for fighting evil. They're also uh, evil themselves kinda-- but not reallyyy, it uh... you know they were going for a... when humans in Ys first dug silver out of the ground, they became obsessed with it, and that's where evil came from. Basically.
I replayed Ys I & II on the DS for fun. It's a lot less painful your second time.
The first time, it hurts, you don't really know what you're doing, you're scared, you just have this natural instinct that you want to do it and the overall experience was still pleasurable. But the SECOND time, it's a lot more enjoyable.
A neat little SECRET I learned (which is an achievement on the Steam version) is that you can get the main gril's "measurements" in 1 by lmao cornering her while she's following you. Of course there's reddit threads decrying this as creepy. Redditors just think any interaction between men and women is icky, it has nothing to do with the cornering, which obviously was just intended to make it more of a hidden action rather than just allow you to press A on her and measure her bust, waist, and hips. (84, 56, 85 btw, she's *literally* a goddess)
In Ys II though, uh... you can measure another person. A... boy lmao and the achievement's called "The Police Are On Their Way". (B: 66, W: 55, H: 66 for him)
I wonder if that was in the original release of the game. I really don't know. It's a very "bold" thing to include in the game lmao as if they wanted to outdo the last one. Since I'm an unironic believer that It's Okay When Japan Does It I'm not going to sit here and complain about it. What would I even be complaining about? It's not MORE disgusting than the sex scenes in The Last of Us 2. It's an image of an anime boy with a text box saying "Uh... it's kinda cramped here." Anime boys are LITERALLY girls anyway. What, you think I'm coping? Of course I am, I don't care. It's a great game, the achievement's FUNNY, and I DON'T CARE because whataboutism is valid and every AAA game made in America+Europe is 10,000 more sexually inappropriate. Don't you literally assist in a gay hookup in Spiderman? I don't know for sure, sorry, I'm never going to play it.
I've really gotten off-topic.
Anyway, THANKS for GIVING me your time, reading this really dumb blog post. I know it was uh, silly lol. But really, thank God life is as good as it is.
Pls take care of yourself, happy late Thanksgiving
God bless,fren
hey fren, hope you're well today. I finished Ys VI: Aaaaaark of Napishhhhtim...
i liked it a lot. it wasssss... really good.
easier than Ys 1, by far. Easier than Ys 2? A little. The final boss got me a few times, but I wasn't even fully-leveled, I didn't fully-level my swords either, and I didn't have as many healing items as I could have. And I still went through the entire endgame with minimal difficulty on normal.
that's just to say that the game is much more "modern" in difficulty, and not ball-bustingly hard like Ys 1.
Just like 1&2, plenty of cool magical items to find, neat towns to buy stuff, dungeons to explore, monsters to kill, great music, charming characters.
This is a little random, but something that i really liked wasss-- there's a miserable drunkard who's depressed because he's away from his family. you can sell him some special strong booze you find, right? He gives you 2500 gold, which is basically worthless. Orrrr: you can instead give it to a happy, relatively healthy and responsible fisherman who just enjoys being drunklol. And HE'LL give you a locket that he fished up, and THAT. LOCKET. contains a picture of the miserable drunk's family, and you can give it to him, and it reignites his will to live and get back to them. Which is awesome. and instead of a worthless amount of gold, he gives you a lucky coin, which is coooooool and increases your luuuuuuck.
just a neat little "trade" quest, right? i love that kinda stuff.
uuhhhh... story. the story's good. kinda a... lore-heavy mystery that you slowly unravel while adventuring around. it's nothing mind-blowing, but it is uh... good, it's just good.
and most importantly, you get to save ALL the girls
maybe my biggest issue with the gamelmao is that Adol basically comes to this island, makes the Priestess and her little sister fall in love with him by being so cool and heroic and saving them and the world, and just leaves. The last image in the credits is Adol cheerfully waving goodbye to the Priestess and her sister, while they're looking REALLY SAD that he's going lol iT'S ACTUALLY KINDA WILD. i wonder if i can find them...forget it, I can't. Just imagine that silver-haired girl looking completely miserable next to an older sister, who is also sad, while you, a cheerful red-headed adventureclown wave at them with a big stupid autistic smile on your face.
That blonde girl, Terra's on the same boat as you at the end but I'm sure you'll break her heart too.
Adol is kinda like Link I guess. But at least, among the zillion different Links, some of them ended up with Zelda or Malon, right? Adol's just adventuring around the world, constantly breaking EVERY FEMALE HEART he comes across. HE DID THE SAME THING IN YS1 AND 2, he's-- okay that's enough.
Uhhhhh... i liked it a lot though, I really did. The game's fantastic. The combat's a little-- well, very repetitive. But the enemeies and scenery's always changing, so it's all good. I'm uhhhh... i think I'm gonna play throoough Oath in Felghana, which I thiiiink takes place *before* Napishtim, I just went through the intro. It has VOICE ACTING, and even though it's English, which normally is offensively bad, the main gril's voice is actually really, really nice. Like if I say the English actress for Zelda in BOTW is a 2/10, which it is, this is aaaa... 7. It not only isn't unbearable, but it's. good.
English voice acting that's good? That's so weird.
okay, that's all. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiim gonna go. Longbottom later, but i need sleep.
plssss take care of yourself aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand have a relaxing day. God bless fren
Hey fren, hope you're well today.
What do you wanna talk about? How about... idk, some vidya? Aaand I'll do a UFC recap at the end. Right? Okay.
Also I'm like... idk 1/3 done with a new Longbottom chapter. It's taking a little too long, but I think it's funny. Harry's not handling Cho denying him sex very well.
Uhh... vidya? No, first Digimon. I think I'm gonna add... little pics of whatever Digimon I have at the moment. My index is a little crowded though, idk... I'll put it on the "About" page or somethinglol. SO I've got Beelstarmon X, and I successfully prevented her from trooning out into Diaboromon X. I've also gottt a... MetalGarurumon X, and if I don't fuck up he'll be an Omnimon X in a few days. Exciting, right?
I hada ... Craniummon X, but I must have fucked up because he was neeeever becoming an Alphamon. But that's okay! Because he died! lmao idk how, he just. Died. You get a chance to save them by hitting the B-button 100 times, but by the time I realized what was happening, it was too late. I tried. But I used the egg he left behind to make muh Beelstarmon X, so he did not die in vain. Of course, Digimon never really die anyway.
Aaaaaaaand... my third slot in the device is just a Sistermon Blanc. Idk what I'll try to do with her, I have to focus on not ruining MetalGarurumon's life rn.
vidya? ...Ys VI is still neato. Ys VIII is really fun, but. I think I might prefer the older games. That's aaaaaall. I'll...say.more..later...maybea...........Ys.......reviewpage......zzzzzzzzzz
UFC recap?................. no, no. Just a little. I took some notes, but I was only half-paying attention to some of the fights becausee Ys VI. Let's see...
>Stipe tribute is 1 week late, but it was nice
>I love Wang Cong, she's so cringe and cute (but she lost via TOTAL FLUKE headkick+rear naked choke after beating the tar out of her opponent for the first round! SAD!)
>Kai Asakura's coming soon to fight Pantoja. I looove Pantoja, but having a Japanese champion would be cool. But can he do it? idk, Pantoja's just SO GOOD. Another thing to uh, consider is would Asakura be able to defend the belt? The current #8 Flyweight ALREADY beat Asakura in Rizin. I don't love his chances against Pantoja in the first place. The UFC's apparently trying to move more into Asian countries. But I kinda don't want them to. LEAVE THE ASIANS ALONE. That's another topic though, it's complicatedLEAVE THEM ALOOOONEE!!! DISNEY ARI NOSEMANUEL FUCK OFFFFFFFF REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
>Um, Petr Yan beat the shit out of Deiveson Figueiredo for 5 rounds. Okay that's not fair, it was competitive, but Yan did win every round pretty decisively. There were some totally delusional retards going into r5 like "it's 2-2, it all comes down to this!" and it's like ...you mother fucker, what fight are you watching? Yan is up 4 rounds.
And whenever the judges agree with me, they're right--and all three did agree with me, 50-45 Yan. He deserved that, he's SUFFERED enough, from the bullshit DQ against Aljo to being robbed against O'Malley. He should be CHAMPION right n--oh wait, I forgot about Merab. Okay, but uh still.
Oh and >Muslim Salikov is the first UFC fighter in history to have TWO spinning wheelkick KOs. Good for him. He's over 40 and he's kicking people in the head.
Okay that's all. I..... I'm tired or something, i'll ttyl.
oh i forg..ottt.............. Shi Ming, who is CUTE, got a comeback headkick KO and her poor opponent was out for over 4 minutes. Last I heard she was doing better at the hospital.
also also. the MYSTERY Rob Liefeld cover for the new Shi book was revealed and it'ssss... meh. This is a part of it. It's uh... I might switch covers lol. It's just. and he. He kinda...messed up her arms a bit, and uh... it's just. it's not bad. but
anyway i'll ttyl. pls take care of yourselfaaaand. have a comfy day. God bless, fren
Hey fren, I hope you're well today.
Uhhhh... hm. I just finished Ys II. Like Ys I, it was pretty great until the end, which was miserable. Ys I throws a 24-level tower at you, but Ys II throws a labyrinth city at you called the Temple of Solomon (or, Salmon in the localization) I think I spent more time running around the Temple of Solomon than I did the rest of the entire game.
That said, uhhhh... it wasn't too hard. The game's easier than the first. The bosses are a less cheap, you have *magic* now so you can use a ranged attack. Most of the bosses didn't kill me once and none of them killed me twice. So, that's nice. I played on normal, I'm never going to play it on nightmare. It already was a nightmare.
It's really a very... interesting game. There's so much about it that I really, really like. Just like the first game, the world is very charming. You have a lOoOoOooove interest now. You can give her flowers. And apples. You can give anyone flowers or apples. There's equipment and items to buy to make life easier, there's mAaaAagical items to find-- I think I missed one... ah I did. Also I missed a bunch of MEAT that you can get from giving gifts to certain villagers.
Not that useful. The game is actually really easy outside of bosses. Your fireball magic yeets any enemy in a few shots, and you can fire huuuuuundreds of them without running low on magic. It's very easy to grind. The Temple of Solomon is just so exhausting to find your way around. There's a six-section outer level, there's two separate inner-levels that aren't connected, there's an underground cannal system that doubles in size after you drain it, it's justaSAHAAHAEHUERTOEAURGJOIJ AAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!1
Good game though, glad I played it.
I guess my only issue with the story, which is otherwise perfect, is a single uh... "idea" with the ending. Basically the goddesses who watch over Ys are like "Humans don't need goddesses anymore, you'll do fine on your own :) " which is a very Japanese thing, but *in the story* they uh... definitely need goddesses lmao.
Because I'm religious, it's in my nature to simp for gods and goddesses in fiction: I rekindled the flame in Dark Souls and I maintain it's the right decision. And I'm right.
And I'm right here too.
Like you--Adol-- were only able to save the world with the blessings of the two goddesses. Basically, the uh... the devil lmao, his name is DARM, and he uh... how do I put this... silver is... silver is evil lol and uh, when it was mined, he uh... and then uh... they sealed him away... and he came back when... more silver ...
it doesn't matter lmao, the point is he's the cause of ALL EVIL in Ys and you LITERALLY could not have defeated Darm without the power of the goddesses. Now granted, they also needed to use Adol, they couldn't *for whatever reason* fight him on their own, but they were still ESSENTIAL in defeating him. And defeating him also uh... got rid of all the magic in the world.
So how does that equal "humans don't need goddesses anymore"? It doesn't. In fact they even say "we'll still watch over the world to make sure magic doesn't return". So they're basically starting a uh... non-intervention policy? *Unless* magic(basically nukes) returns? Why? And what were they doing prior to Darm's return anyway? Were they actively helping people and now they're *not* going to?
It just doesn't make any sense. One of the goddesses even said she "felt" that humans don't need her anymore *DURING* the time that Darm was causing chaos, so it's not even a matter of "magic's gone, evil's gone, you don't need us anymore."
It, chronologically, doesn't make sense.
That's my issue with it.
On top of, obviously, the humanism vibes, which I of course hate. I hate it enough in real life, but in this video game where I literally killed a demon with a sword blessed by goddesses--I watched them bless it--I don't want you to tell me "Tee-hee, humans don't need nuffin from nobody" as if their existence doesn't matter.
That's all, it's very uhh... I'm being a liiiiittle unfair, but you know, it's a very common Japanese sentiment in media, and I never really like it. I'll give the story credit for them still "watching over the world to ensure magic doesn't come back".
And at least they weren't the real final boss lmao
Anyway... that's Ys 1 and 2. I'd almost call them masterpieces, I really think they're great games, I love the world, the lore, the characters, the music, but their END SECTIONS are pure fucking misery, and Ys 1's bosses are fucking ridiculous.
That's all. That's my Ys review-- hey I can use most of this for a new review page, that's great.
Anywaaaaaayyyy... idk, I guess I'll either finish Ys VI or try out Ys VIII. Uhhh... maybe not right away, I might be a little Ysed out rn.
Is there anything else? There always is, but I'll let you go for now. Uhhhhhhhhh... Longbottom later, I forgot to write one yesterday. idk what's even going on... okay, Goyle's in love, and Isabel just killed Bellatrix. Got it.
I'll ttyl, pls take care of yourself aaaaand have a warm day. God bless, fren
Hey fren, I hope you're well today.
Uhhh... how about... we do some updates... we check some of my REMINDERS... aaaand... quick UFC recap? aaaaand... maybe we write a Longbottom together?
I'll try not to make it TOO boring.
Let'sseee... Muh All Caps beanies came in. UPS LOST it, so they sent me another one. Four beanies, for $30. You believe that? Oy vey whadduh deal! They're comfy too. Truly blessed.
I actually zoomed through Ys I on the DS, just on Very Easy to reward myself for suffering through it on PC. It's... kinda better on the DS. So much so that I actually started Ys II on it and got up to where I was on the PC version, and I think I'll just continue on the DS. You get a maaaap, the menuing is a little more fun, instead of the bump-combat, you just press to swing your sword normally, and that's pretty neat. Idk which translation is better, but I've enjoyed the DS one so far. Actually I didn't remember to check for the Harry Potter references. If the DS doesn't have them, it's the superior version. Sry, I love Harry Potter as much as the next guy who writes insane Harry Potter fanfiction, but I don't need some LOCALIZER replacing original content with fucking irrelevant references. I get the impression that a lot of English localizers think they're good writers. And that's a problem, because they're not. Even if they were, I'd still prefer errmmm, just the translation prease :) I bought this Japanese game for the Japanese writer's words, not yours.
Ok ok let's move on... cross off some reminders herreee...
"no-one gives a fuck about celebrities"... eh. New article idea. idk how much I care though, it's a little too negative. I can... make it positive I guess...
"looking at PS2 games, recognized the cover art of a 20 year old visual novel from a hentai artist." okay, I definitely already wrote about that, let's cross that off...
"🦑 something neato 🦑 https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/nosfero-the-crypt-walker-the-art-2nd-edition" oh, that's a new comic book I'm backing. It looks really cool--it's hand-painted, isn't that neat? The artist is a cool guy, too. I'll link it... here I just wanted to share that. I'll cross that off noww...
"Amazon Basics Multitool vs Leatherman Wingman" lmao that's going into the story. I'll try to add it today so I can cross it off.
"Mirko is a fit dark-skinned bunnygirl from My Hero Academia. But Mirko Cro Cop is a retired MMA fighter, regarded as one of the best to ever do it." Uhh... idk, I guess that's just some fun trivia for you.
Okay, that's enough reminders. What's next?
FIGHTS. I'll just go over a few of them, it wasn't uh... that interesting.
Jim Miller got a guillotine and retired Damon Jackson, adding to his record of most-wins in the UFC. That's pretty neat, right? Jim's like, what 100 years old. It sucked seeing him lose to Bobby Green last time, but hey, he's back. Still ancient, still fighting.
Okay, Martinez vs McGhee sucked. First 2 rounds, Martinez wasn't throwing anything. At all. The entire fight, I had the impression that he was better than McGhee-- and when he finally decided to start throwing punches, he won the 3rd round. But ffs he. wasn't. throwing. anything. People are acting like it was a McGhee masterclass. But uh, I didn't see it at all. Martinez just didn't want to win for some reason, so he made McGhee look like a hurricane of strikes. But Martinez's defense was also pretty good. He just. wasn't. throwing. anything. When he finally decided to kick McGhee's legs out from under him, it was too late. Uhhhh... idk. SAD.
What else... I don't care about like anyyy of these... Bo Nickal lmao. Bo Nickal decided to not use his greatest weapon, wrestling. He decided to test his striking. And he won round 1, and then he won round 2, and then he won round 3, against a much taller, longer man. Everyone hated it, because Bo was veeeeeery low output. I loved it, it kept me paying attention. He hurt Craig baaaaaaad in the ...2nd or 3rd, idr, but he didn't try to finish. I love Bo Nickal lmfao because ufc fans hate him, and they're all gay retards with goldfish brains who can't bear a little slower-paced fight. And he's just totally shameless about it, he doesn't care at all that everyone hated it hahahrahuahahah I LOVE BO NICKAL.
okay.uhh... Oliveira did great. 50-45? Got dropped and almost got finished in the 3rd because he's like... so fragile now, but he got back up, even though Chandler hit him in the back of the head a dozen times. Uhh... Chandler's so fucking tiny looking. Idk how Charles could ever hope to beat Islam if Chandler gave him problems. Sure, he dominantly won, but right to the end, Chandler could have thrown a big goofy goober punch and sent Olives down. HOW CAN HE COPE WITH ISLAM, WHO IS TWICE CHANDLER'S SIZE? Great fight though, Charles looked great.
FINALLY...
I love Jon Jones lmao. I don't CARE that his career is built on lies, because after he KO's Stipe with a body kick in r3, he does the the Never Come Down Trump dance, credits Christ, says he's proud to be a Christian American, and gets Madison Square Garden chanting "USA USA". I just love him.
Uhhhh... Stipe did way better than the commentary team gave him credit for. Survived a BRUTAL r1 on the ground, and went on to catch Jones a few times, but Jones is verrrrry defensively responsible, he always was able to disengage when he was in trouble. And Stipe was just toooo slow. Still, according to one judge(who was correct) Stipe took r2. Uhh... it's good that he retired though, he's just too flat-footed and slow now.
That's everything, right? Oh, Trump, RFK Jr and Elon all showed up and got a standing ovation, so that was cool. UFC fans and fighters overwhelmingly support him, apparently even in New York. Often forgotten is that there may not even be a UFC today if it wasn't for Trump helping them in the beginning, three decades ago.
Aaaaaanyway... wanna write a Longbottom? lol. Where did we leave off...
okay Harry just found out that Neville escaped from prison, that's easy. Something I forgot last time though, was that Chen was going to be arrested by the UK police. That's easy to sort out. First, let's check on Neville...
"Women of the world..." HP Longbottom spoke solemnly into his phone, making a vid for his TikHog. "I... have no words... Men... have failed you... White people... have failed you... America... *sigh* has failed you. I know that you're angery. I know that you're scared. I know that you feel that there's nothing to live for anymore. BUT DO. NOT. GIVE. IN. TO. FEAR. REMEMBER. what Dune says. Fear is the mind killer. They WANT you to be afraid. What they DON'T want, is for you to be organized and united. They FEAR your strength, they FEAR your Voice. SCREAM into the sky that you WILL NOT GIVE IN TO HAAAATEEEEE!!!!!!!" ........
"Now... America chose Fascist Dictator Donald Trump as their President, despite his promise to genocide and deport all lgbtqp+ people of color. Somehow, Blump used his Russian connections to erase 20 million votes that President Biden fairly got in the previous election, in a clear hostile takeover of the government. That's where we're at. Take time to grieve, to process this. Meditate. Have a mug of hot cocoa. Binge your favorite Netflix show. Anything you need to soothe and to remind yourself that you ARE worth it. Because things are going to get... SO much worse from here... call your black and brown-bodied friends. CRY with them. LISTEN to them scream, LISTEN to their anger. Now is the time for you to BE THERE for them.
You're probably also aware that Chen Potter, the well-known White Supremacist fascist dictator of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, was charged and convicted of hate crimes and human trafficking in the UK for systematically replacing all of the "undesirable" students of Hogwarts with Asian vagina-havers. Of course this week he was was illegally rescued from Justice by the intervention of Fascist Dictator Donald Trump..."
"We will NOT allow Chen Potter to get away with replacing the original population of Hogwarts with these new migrants. Such an intentional act is HORRIFYING and EVIL. NOW is the time for us to ORGANIZE. If you see a fellow resister wearing a blue bracelet, it means they ALSO refuse to surrender their right to safe abortions and gender-affirming care. TALK. TO. THEM. Schedule meet ups. Start book clubs. ARM yourselves... because I PROMISE you... they're going to start burning books."
"Hey Harry, what are you burning?" asked Mizuki, walking over to the fire pit.
Harry turned to greet Mizuki and Malfoy. "Ah, just some creepy psuedoscience book about changing your gender. Muggles actually believe you can do it without magic. I found it in the Forbidden Section of the library, but I figure why not clear up some space for books that won't teach a person to irreparably ruin their life by being pumped with unnatural hormones and eviscerating their genitals in a nightmarish plastic surgery so they can attempt to live a lie that no-one around them will ever even believe?"
"Uh yeah, there's probably better books," said Malfoy, opening a candy bar for Mizuki that she couldn't open.
Harry tossed "'The Fallacy of Female' by Doctor("Doctor") Etan Lipschitz into the fire and took a seat. It was starting to get cold at Hogwarts. Fall was coming to an end.
"Harry, I know you've been stressed out that Neville hasn't been captured yet," started Malfoy.
"He keeps making those stupid fucking TikHog videos, and someone always shares them with me," grumbled Harry.
"I know Harry, but he's not having a good time, I assure you. My Slytherin Stormtroopers have chased him out of eleven different countries already."
"He's just too fast to catch, isn't he?" sighed Harry.
Draco nodded. "We need to lure him to us, it's the easiest way."
"And he too afraid of returning here, now that Rei's back," Harry went on.
"We can't send Rei away without sending Ron too," said Draco.
"No, I wasn't thinking that," assured Harry. "She deserves a normal semester after all she's been through. Ron as well."
"Where are they anyway?" asked Mizuki.
"In Ron's room," said Harry, watching the fire.
"Ah."
"That reminds me," Harry said, getting up and stretching. "You see Cho anywhere?"
Malfoy looked away.
"What?"
"Harry..."
"What is it!" Harry grabbed him.
Malfoy sighed. "Cho told us to tell you that she's not seeing you until you pass your College N.E.W.T.s"
Harry started running toward the castle.
Chen was watching Harry sprinting across the campus in his Ring Crystal Ball Security system.
"Why is my dad like this?" Chen asked.
Grandpa Snape tousled Chen's hair. "One day you'll meet a girl who you'll want to run around for."
Chen lit a cigar. "I hope that day never comes. Let's get down to business, grandfather."
Tactician Snape spread out the war map.
"Thoughts?"
Chen looked closely. "Yeah, we're fine. Except for the basement still."
"The construction team won't be ready for another week."
"What's the latest from the quarantine team?"
"The Moon Prescence's Naked Thralls are still attacking relentlessly. But our boys are doing fine."
Chen put out his cigar. "Fine isn't good enough. Send in the Defense Against the Dark Arts instructor."
"INCEEEEEEEEEELLLLLL!!!!" screamed Naked Bellatrix Lestrange, running at Jack, who'd unfortunately drawn a short straw to be part of the quarantine team. Her old lady hag tits flopped freely and unburdened by what has been.
Jack, effectively a helpless girl, cried out and cowered in the fetal position as Naked Bellatrix closed in on him.
The image of a fetus enraged Naked Bellatrix and increased her bloodlust even more. She drew a an Amazon Basics multitool from her ... hair. And she flipped the knife out of it.
But then! Naked Bellatrix's hand disappeared!
"AAAAAEEEEIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEE FUUUUUUCKIIIIING NAAAAAAAZZZZZZZZIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSS" Naked Bellatrix howled.
Who else had come to Jack's rescue but Isabel, the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor!
When Bellatrix turned to fight back, the knife from Isabel's Leatherman Wingman found its mark, sending Naked Bellatrix crashing to the ground.
Serious Black walked over in his wolf form, lifted his leg, and peed on her corpse. Not to mark his territory, that's disgusting. But merely to disrespect her.
Isabel helped Jack to his feet and handed him his gun. "Think you dropped this."
Jack rubbed his head, embarrassed. "Y-yeah professor, sorry... thank you for saving my life."
Isabel smiled. "Just Isabel, please." She turned to Serious.
"Mr. Black..."
Serious smiled. "Just Serious, please lol."
"Serious, where's the rest of the team?"
"At hallway B-4, we're going to make camp there, the ground is relatively solid."
"Excellent." Isabel lit a match and dropped it on Naked Bellatrix's remains. She turned to Jack. "Remember: Always burn the bodies."
"L-like in The Evil Within?" asked Jack.
"Yeah, or Resident Evil. You know, Evil Within was heavily inspired by..."
As Goyle, another member of the quarantine team, overheard Isabel talking about video games from the other room, he was terrified to realize that he had fallen in love with her.
.

OKAY, that's a loooooong post. Was it Goyle who ... who does Crabbe have, Khaliun? I'm always getting them mixedup.
right. I'llllllll ttyl, right?. pls take care of yourself and have a comfy day. God bless, fren
Hey fren, I hope you're well today.
I can't focus too well rn, there's some great fights tonight.
Unlike last night, amirite?
Did you catch Mike Tyson and Jake Paul? You didn't miss much. I feel bad for everyone who thought Mike Tyson was going to literally-murder Paul. I don't love Mike Tyson, I'm not THAT old, but I felt bad for him.
The guy's 58 years old. That's for starters. That's, imho, the smallest issue.
Another issue? Apparently his leg was fucked up. For him, that's "not an excuse", but the reality islmao if your movement is compromised in boxing, that's a problem.
But the REAL issue, I think?
A few months ago, he was hospitalized for an ulcer that made him vomit blood and "shit tar". Guy lost half his blood, lost 25lb, needed blood transfusions.
That was THIS YEAR.
I had an ulcer uh, 2 years ago. And I'm STILL recovering from it. And I wasn't hospitalized, I never vomited blood, and I only lost 11lb, not 25. I'm still fucked up over it. I can't work out hard, my cardio's gone to shit. I'm baaaaaarely feeling better after 2 years. Mike Tyson'slmao he's been recovering for less than 1/2 of a 1 year.
So that's my cope for Mike Tyson. I don't really care about either fighter too much. Obviously the age thing was a built-in "this fight is a retarded mismatch", but uhhh... a lot of people still thought Tyson was "THE BADDEST MAN ON THE PLANET". And he did look really good in the first round, won it, and narrowly won 2 as well. But then, he uh, idk. All I can say, as someone who is closer to Jake Paul in age than Mike, I was an ELITE ATHLETE a few years ago, my tummy started hurting, and now I'mlmao I'm still trying and praying I can get better. I can't imagine getting into a fucking boxing match rn.
So uh, props to Mike. Paul was a gracious winner too. Uhh... you know, boring fight though lol. The women's match before them was more interesting. And it was-- kinda a robbery but the exceedingly rare kind where I'm glad it was a robbery because the ref was a faggot and deducted a point from the winner for no reason so hahahahaha fucka yooooou.
Anything eeeeelse? Yeah, UFC tonight. Are you excited? Are ya gonna watch with me? JON "BONES" JONES, THE ... guy who lost to Dominic Reyes, and never fought a well-rounded man who was younger or bigger than him, vs Old Man Stipe for the Fake Heavyweight Championship as the True Heavyweight Champion Tom Aspinall watches from the crowd, wondering "What's the point of this? Neither of them are going to fight me."
But I think the card is really underrated. Oliveria vs Chandler! I'm worried for Olives though, I was getting like... "lazy" vibes from him in his last fight against Arman. He seemed way too comfy on his back, slowly losing. He beat Chandler before but maybe THIS "Iron Mike" will put on a better show.
BO. NICKAL. everyone hates him but I love him. I'm riding the hype train. Paul Craig sucks so bad, but he can lmao he can just randomly beat anyone. He SOMEHOW submitted Nikita Krylov, who's like... one of the best grapplers in the division. He SOMEHOW KO'd Jamahal Hill the knockout artist lmao, which was Hill's only loss until Pereira. And he SOMEHOW submitted Ankalaev 6 years ago, who's the #1 contender rn and hasn't lost since. He can do anything. But he still sucks.
Uhhhhhh... idk, it's a good caaaahd, there's some more good fights too. Very underrated but uh, idk I can't focus. Brain no work so good. People complain about fighters getting CTE meanwhile I can't even write a blog post.
I'm gonna go. Uhh-- oh, I started Ys 2 and it's really neato. A little too cryptic like the first game, but it's still reallyyy neato. See this demon in the screenshot? After he said this, I turned back into a human and killed him. :')
The introduction of magic is cool aaaand the diagonal attacks make it ... something. It's... fun. Anyway. I'lllllllll... tttyllllll.............
take care pls, have a warm day. God bless fren
The following is a post I wrote because I couldn't beat the final boss in Ys 1. I beat him just now, but I already wrote this solmao, I'll see you at the end of it:
Dark Fact is the worst boss I can ever remember, I'm not having fun anymore.
Other than that, Ys was good. But Dark Fact is so ass-fuckingly difficult, I can't go on.
Oh, hey, Iiii... hope you're having a good one.
Me? I'm a little sad because Dark Fact raped me over a dozen times and I just can't do anything about it. I was simultaneously playing Ys VI though, which I'm really enjoying, and where I *haven't* yet been made into a woman by a boss I can't beat.
Apparently DARK FACT (it hurts more because I love that name) is considered one of the hardest bosses in the series, so *that* makes me feel better. Because I really don't think I can be fucked to beat him at this point, it's such a bullshit fight lol. And there's just nothing I can do, I'm max level, I've got muh silver equipment, I just have to dodge a screen full of projectiles as the floor collapses and simultaneously try to damage him.
I can't remember a game giving me the business like this since Touhou...... 8, I think. And at least I got *one* of the endings. I'll never be a great Touhou player, but at least I was able to *finish* one. DARK FACT is standing in my way for Ys, what a fucking asshole. It's like, because I can't beat him, the entire game is just ruined because I can't even say I beat it lmao. Which saps my enthuiasm for the series, like *I won't be comfortable* until I beat a Ys game, and Dark Fact basically just told me "You can't". And btw-- it was a really, really great game. Up to Dark Fact. The towns are great, the characters are great, the music is great, the items are really cool, they've got great art and loooore, it's interesting, it's a little too cryptic sometimes in that way that old games were, to the point where you probably need a guide, but it's goooooood. No, it's GREAT.
And then along comes DARK FACT.
Fuck him. Anyway, I'llllll... continue VI though. Ark of... Napishtim. Apparently mid-level difficulty. I lmao I'm really in a CRISIS rn, I have no enthusiasm.
"What if the next boss is like Dark Fact?" is now going to be at the back of my mind forever. You know, there's a kiiiiinda similar boss in Napishtim, who destroys the floor too. The difference is there isn't a bottomless pit under it. Aaaand you can carry a few health items with you. Aaaaaaaand you can level up, aaaaaaaaaaand you can strengthen your sword, aaaaaaaaaaand-- that's the beauty of most rpgs, right? Leveling up a bit so you don't have to play perfectly and never get it (it is absolutely fucking impossible to beat Dark Fact without getting hit, even this video I'm watching rn is tool-assisted and gets hit, in the ORIGINAL from the 80s though, it was possible)
...
...
...
Hey, it's me again. Even if it's LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE to beat Dark Fact without getting hit, there was still something I was doing wrong-- you do a bit more damage to him if you attack his dick instead of his head. It's juuuuust enough, and after another half-dozen tries, I got him.
The relief this gives me? A lot. I beat the hardest boss and game in the series, right? Basically the rest of my entire life is going to be a cakewalk now.
I'll keep playing VI, then uhhh-- I miiiiiight skip VII and play VIII, because everyone loves it.
Anything else? Digimon? I think I might have FUCKED up and my Craniamon X is STUCK.Sucks, right? What can I do? I can't RESET, that'll get rid of my precious Sistermon Ciel.
Did you know Ciel was created as a reskin of Noir for the U.S. because Noir looks too much like a nun?
There's nothing more offensive to the United States than a nun. Not only is she not having sex, but even if she did and got pregnant, she wouldn't kill the baby. Unforgivable.
BUT, the good thing is that both Sistermon Noir and Sistermon Ciel are both canon now. Isn't that great? Of course Noir's not in the U.S. version of the games though. But uh, Ciel is. And she's still wearing a habit and called "sister", so.
Anyway, I beat Dark Fact so I deserve to relax now, I'm gooonnaaa goooooo... I'llllll. ttyl, right? pls take care of yourself and have a comfy day, God bless fren
Hey hey. Hope you're well, fren.
Me? I'm... not bad atm. Let's see... let's write a Longbottom together.
First, let's clear some of my reminders, okay? What do we have here...
"Cyber frog, Cyber Sleuths, Cyber Tomboy" I guess I was going to comment on "cyber" things lol. What do you think about CyberTomboy?
"Ender Lilies + Dante's Inferno/GOW on index" Zzzzzz I have to update my index. Lemme do that rn... Even though I didn't even do a great job on the GOW review. What was I going to do with Ender Li-- oh I don't even have that review listed ffs. Who would have thought it'd be such a paaaaaain to have a website. It's a good pain though, right?... there. I also changed some of the links to give more than just the name of the game. I think they're a little more compelling now. What's next...
"Bantu" lmao. It's a character from Fire Emblem. I'm also pretty sure it's a racial slur, as well as an actual group of people. Lemme checkkk... kinda. It's more complicated than I care to talk about. I remember it because one of Nick Fuentes's frens... uhhh... fuck I can't remember his name... Tenryo. Le based black guy, genuinely a cool guy. He got called "Bantu" by some wignat on X lmao that's why I remember. I miss following Nick's fans on X. I absolutely do-not want to make an account, but the Groypers were so funny and energetic. There's a certain group of his fans that are like, younger anime fans, and they're just absolutely vicious. I loved seeing those guys, probably early twenties, just swarming on 40yo wignats, making fun of them with Spongebob references, telling them they're going to rape themlmfao, and all their victims could do was weakly mutter "I-incel..." THEY WERE FUN.
Okay okay, enough reminiscing. I'm never going to get through these... Uhhh... "Arizona bark scorpion"... is that a story idea? Probably. I'm not going to use that, even though I should. What else...
"Hocus Pocus script". Ah, I wanted... to just hold down the fire key instead of ... having to constantly press it. Zzzzzzzzzzz Idk, I couldn't get it working. I have one that works for Diablo *mouse* clicks, but I can't get a KEY press to keep goingZzzzzzzz whateverrr what ELSE...
"Moon Archive, Harry teaches girls lmao" Okay, the Blue Archive arc. Didn't really use Harry, but I'm glad I already usssed it...ok ok
"landing investment shots to the body" this sounds really familiar. I was supposed to use this months ago and I never did. What's wrong with me.
"She Loves You" - I wanted to write a paaaaage about the Beatles song, which is a uniquely-good love song. But... I'm so tired...
I need a nap. I can't believe I've written so much already.
...
I took a nap. It was a little longer than it should have been. We don't have time to write a Longbottom together anymore, I'm sorry. I'll write one on my own though, and you can let me know if I did a bad job.
I'll ttyl, pls take care of yourself and have a relaxing day. God bless, fren.
Hey fren, hope you're well today.
Blackpillers on EXTRA suicide watch today.
Uhhhhh, idk how do you feel? I feel pretty good.
The President-in-Exile is returning.
CNN's blaming it on White womenlol. RARE White woman W.
Actually instead of talking about POLITICS though, telling you stuff you ALREADY KNOW, how about-- Digimon?
In Cybersleuths you get gifted like, idk 5 or 6 of the strongest Digimon. I thiiiiink because it was originally on the PS4 and Vita... idk. Know what I mean? They're like "Here, retard, take some Mega holy warriors since you JUST got this old-ass game."
I really like it. You find a spooky ghost girl, but it ends up being a Digimon who'd been stuck inside an old computer in the WALLS of the uh-- building you're in, and he just disguised himself as an old idol because he THOUGHT SHE WAS CUTE and it'd make people more likely to help him-- but it's like extra COOL because the computer wasn't connected to the Internet, right? The images were saved either locally or somewhere on the uhh...InTRAnet that he had access to, which controlled all the ACs in the building-- so he was just using the limited resources he had access to. It's not like he was ME and he could just find a million pictures of Azn girls to lure you to read his blog. Okay I'm like, I'm a little tired. My brain's a little fried. I'm just saying, it was a cool little mystery that had a semi-spooky vibe to it.
Uhh what else... there was some --person-- who was complaining about having to choose between the 2 genders in some dating app, and so ...they... were hacking people's accounts to REBEL against an "unjust system"(reality). That was pretty cringe, but you got to beat them up. Or, beat up their Digimon. So, at least there's that. During the beating, I yelled "THIS IS CYBER-TRUMP COUNTRY" and then I fashioned a digital noose andzzzzzzzzzz
Anyway, it's just... fun. And it's soooo easy to Digivolve, like I've gotten idk, it feels like sooooo many, and it's uh... idk, it just feels really cool. If I were to compare it to Pokemon, it wouldn't be as significant feeling though, and I-- actually I can't compare it to Pokemon, I just can't. But it's good.
I'm so exhausted, I feel like I've been awake for eternity.
I'm gonn-- am I forgetting anything? Probably, but . im tired. I'm gonna try to sleepZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz WHAT A BAD POST, im gonna go, ill ttyl.
pls take care of yourself, aaandd have a warm day.
God bless, fren
Heyhey.
Hope you're well today, fren.
Cybersleuths is pretty great. Hooky spooky mysterious Digimon story. You know, "A-are these the 'Digimon' programs that hackers use?!" You're in EDEN, a uh... VR-world. You meet a mysterious femboy hacker literally referred to in-game as "the white boy", who gives you your first Digimon, you get separated from your body, a sexy detective chick saves you from being arrested for being creepy(you're a bunch of 0s and 1s shaped like a body), and you become her assistant SLEUTH. A CYBER sleuth. There's some mysterious girl who--idk, whatever. It's goodlol. It's all just preddy enjoyable. Like it's uh, it feels like a very wholesome experience. Has a lot of heart. Digimon Survive and Next Order coming too lol.
I managed to stop myself from getting a Digimon uh... fitness bracelet thing. They're really cool but I already have a gorillion watches, there's no way I can possibly justify wearing it. You know, on top of it basically being a toylmao. It'd be cool if it was available as a watch app though. I'm just in a Digimood. But I've got enough now to satisfy myself. I think.
Uh, let's get IndieGoGo out of the way.
A TRUST & SAFETY person responded to my kvetching, apologizing that "a campaign was sending unsolicited emails" and asking for the campaign, despite my original message both stating that it was *IndieGoGo itself* that sent the email and also naming the campaign.
Solmao so I ... repeated myself. A little more clearly. I'll let you know what they say.
The COCK RING CAMPAIGN OWNER, however, also got back to me. She asked me to contact IndieGoGo with questions not related to her company/product. Since my questions were, of course, always related to her company, I was thinking about asking her again: did you request the emails to be sent out?
But then I remembered who I am. I'm Didn't Ask. Do I really need to ask this woman this? Like I said the other night, IT DOESN'T MATTER, they sent the emails no matter what. And I UNDERSTAND that I'm like, ruining this person's day, I know *I* don't like people giving me grief. I have zero respect for this woman and her world but that doesn't mean I should antagonize her. It's wrong of me.
But THEN, just as I decided I wasn't going to bother her anymore, something truly SICK happened:
I got an email from IndieGoGo warning me against posting spam comments lmao.
She'd reported my comments for spam to get them removed from the campaign. On its own, that wouldn't have been so bad but the really insufferable part was the message saying "if you CONTINUE breaking our terms of service, weeeeell,blahblah we'll rape you blahblah, THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING", you know, immediately judging me as guilty and then presumptively thanking me for accepting my guilt.
What's nice about this message though, is it's not like, idk YouTube or something where you can't reply back in a rage. You CAN literally just respond directly under it, so I'm just like "I didn't post a spam comment. Thank you."
Whoever thanks last, wins. I will force them to ban my account before I let them THANK ME for my UNDERSTANDING.
Anyway, since she did that to me I'm like, OK FINE I'll fuck with you just a bit more. So I repeated my question to her in a slightly-new way directly answering her request for only questions related to her company-- "Did *name of her company* request IndieGoGo to send out unsolicited emails advertising your sex product to its site's users?"
Finally, she answered the actual question. No, she did not requst IndieGoGo send out emails. Of course, that might be a dodge--she might have asked for *promotion*, but not specifically emails--but that's thinking too hard about something that doesn't matter whatsoever. Doesn't matter AT ALL. I thanked her and that's that. I don't even care if she reports those new comments as spam too, I don't BLAME her for not wanting my comments on her campaign-- as retarded as her product is. You know, I don't LIKE that she MADE me do that by reporting me for spam. I really understand having a project and not wanting some lunatic in your comments, I get that. But you know what I'd like YOU to get? Some people don't want random emails about vibrating cock rings. How about that? How about a little eMpAtHy for me? Huh, IDIOT? How'd you like it if I sent YOU a message about muh dick? It'd be a better message. UNLIKE your ugly little rubber wrap for skinnyfat weaklings' microdicks when they're allowed out of their chastity cage, MUH dick is POWERFUL. HANDSOME. THICK. LONG. INTELLIGENT. You don't DESERVE to-- okay, enough.
Sooo: if IndieGoGo actually reads *and* understands my message this time and gets back to me, I'll keep you updated.
What am I hoping for?lmao I dunno, nothing. How about a "In the future, it will be less-likely for our customers to receive spam emails promoting cock rings." That's my greatest hope. A future we can look forward to.
Uuup-- they just replied and thanked me, and PROMISED ME that they'll forward my very important feedback to the appropriate teams. Cool. I want everyone on the marketing team to know that they did a bad job, and I want them to complain on social media to their circle of "sex-positive" cumbrain comrades that they had to deal with a COMPLAINT. I bet they'll call me an incel. "Yikes, some incel complained that we promoted a female-creator's innovative new sex toy! Yikes!!" Even though I've already had more sex than they will in their entire miserable lives and I've never had to wear a fucking vibrating cock ring to satisfy a woman or myself, I'm the incel. An incel might as well be "any man with a shred of dignity", I have NEVER liked all the shit they get from the most vile men and women in society. My friend--who was an incel, but didn't really identify as one--used to send me stupid memes from pages making fun of(*complaining about) them, just because he knew I hated it, and idk maybe it made him feel better when I'd shit on the memes lol. I'm getting off track here, I'm sorry. Uh... a bit more, lemme cook.
That woman, no offense, studied "sex" in college. Like, what a complete fucking retard. No offense. I'm tired of These People pretending that sex is like rocket science. Maybe it sounds counterintuitive, but if your entire fucking existence revolves around sex, you actually get worse at it. Because you're desensitized, it's more difficult for you to be aroused, so it's worse for you, and by extension, necessarily worse for anyone unfortunate to be in bed with you who now has to cope with you having less energy, having to work harder to satisfy YOU, and you wanting to do weird shit (granted, unless they're as broken as you are) and needing them to do weird shit with you. Whereas healthy people need, what? Their mouths for kissing and biting, and their genitals for being kissed. They don't need uh, elaborate pulley systems and whips, because they haven't fried themselves. And because sex *isn't* rocket science, once you've done it, you're basically done "learning" it. Ideally that was your wedding night, but I can't uh-- I'm not any better than you if not. But don't go overboard no matter what. There isn't a WORLD of difference in """skill""" between a virgin and a whore or man-whore, no matter what the whores would have you believe, it doesn't take like 160 IQ to learn how to move your hips well. Some people even have natural rhythm.
Anyway, besides the sin(reason enough to abstain from this "lifestyle"), anyone who needs a vibrating cock ring is worse in bed than the most kissless virgin, if for no other reason than they're more annoying with all their self-inflicted handicaps and needs.
Sorry, I got a little carried awaylmao I got carried away getting mad at likke, imaginary employees... What was I talking about... I'm a little out of it. I have to vote later... wanna write an HP Longbottom with me real quick? A battle at Hogwarts?
Let's see. We need combatants. Hagrid's always fun. All the students are there. Chen's busy with the cops, though, unless he "resists arrest".
It's really the best time to unveil the new Defenseagainstthedarkarts teacher. Uhhhhhh, what do you think? Let's go with the Filipina as a nod to our local tomboy. So what name was she going to have... Isabel. Okay. Anything else... lmfao okay, SHE'LL have the ka-bar knife, that's perfect.
I love fight scenes, because they're the easiest to make goofy. You can just namedrop weapons, come up with wild explanations of where they came from, it's all just silly fun. Let's see...
Peter Pettigrew rose like a mummy. But instead of being wrapped in bandages, he was naked. "It's Naked Peter Pettigrew!" growled Ron, snapping out of his suicidal mood. "Draco, let's go!" Draco pushed Mizuki to the other side of Crabbe's bed as Crabbe yoinked Khaliun, and pulled her over it as well. Crabbe flipped the table to provide cover. "Madam Pomfrey! GUN!" he yelled over to her office. A pink Glock 43 came flying out, and Crabbe caught it in the air. As Cho continued stabbing the everloving shit out of Naked Peter Pettigrew, who refused to die, Ron and Malfoy were barricading the door with beds. More were coming. "LITTLE PIGS, LITTLE PIGS," huffed Naked Lupin. "LET. ME. IIIIIIN!" he puffed. Naked Lupin blew as hard as he could, but the bed barricade held. "Die already!" Cho screamed, having carved Naked Peter Pettigrew's face like a rat-o-lantern. But he gargled and spat up a swarm of tentacles at her. Cho fell backwards, conveniently giving Crabbe a shot. He pink mag dumped into Peter Tentacle's face. It severed the majority of the tentacles, and Cho jumped back on top of him and began stabbing away once more. " "Let me in, boys," pleaded Naked Lupin. "I can help you :) I'm sorry for all the misunderstandings we've had." "What?" asked Draco. "You know, you guys never gave me a chance to explain myself. I really never did anything wrong. I'm not saying you did either, you didn't really KNOW I was a good guy, but I want to just clear the air I guess, I'm not mad that you guys killed me," Naked Lupin gaslit. "That's not going to work on us, Lupin," said Ron. "We're your fellow males." "Cho?" called Naked Lupin. "Don't talk to her," growled Malfoy. "Cho, can you help them understand, I mean no harm?" Cho froze for a second, Ron's knife and her own tanto in both of Naked Pettigrew's naked eye sockets. She shook her head clear and told Naked Lupin to go fuck himself. "Boys..." Naked Lupin said sadly, turning his attention back to the bois. "Lupin get out of here or we'll be forced to kill you," said Ron. "Oh, we all know you don't have the SUN POWER necessary to do that anymore, Ronald. Not without your precious Miss Jeong." Ron's face flushed and he turned away from Malfoy. "Ron?" Malfoy whispered. "He's right, Draco... without her... I'm..." "That's right!" laughed Naked Lupin. "Now just let me in, and I can help yo--ACK! AAAAAGUUUUGUUUU!!" A thump. And then a gentle knock. "Hello. My name is Isabel, I'm your new Defense Against the Dark Arts Teacher. I killed this naked guy. Are you OK in there?" Ron and Draco looked at each other, nodded, and pulled the beds away. They opened the door, and there she was. Chen had recruited another cute Azn girl. Their new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher was a head shorter than either of them, but she was holding a KA-BAR knife drenched in blood, with a stupid naked werewolf lying at her feet, evidence of her expertise. ButWAIT Draco and Ron gasped, alerting Isabel to danger behind her. I didn't even HEAR him, she thought. She ducked and spun around. There he was in all of his loose-skinned horribleness. Naked Dumbledore. And he was wielding a Fiskars machete in his right hand. In his left hand, his middle finger was proudly pointed up at her. "Hello my dear, I'm afraid there's been some confusion. You see, *I* am the Headmaster of this school, and, quite simply, I am not hiring any new professors." Isabel assumed a fighting stance. "Although..." Naked Dumbledore licked his lips. "I'd be happy to consider an application to be a student... under my personal tutilege..." Isabel lunged out at him with her Ka-Bar, but Naked Dumbledore nakedly batted it away with such force that it got stuck in the ceiling. He looked up at it. "Admirable, you keep your weapon shaaaaaarp," he sang. "Unfooooortunately, a sharp weapon cannot saaaave you from meeeee--YAAACK. AAAKKKGKGKK!" Isabel had a spidersilk thread ti--
im so EXHAUSTED, im going to sleeplol. i guess she brings the knife down on him. ill ttyl, k? Pls take care of yourself, and have a relaaaaaxing day. God bless, fren.
Taking the easy way out this time. I hope you don't recognize her.
Hey fren, I hope you're well today. I kinda wanna bloooooog today, but blogging's also kinda lazy, so, wanna write a chapter of HP Longbottom with me?
You do? Thanks, I could really use your help. Let's see...
We left off Chen being arrested for human trafficking. Why? Idk yet. Maybe the students that China was helping him recruit from all across East Asia were actually TAKEN by China. How about that? Did China set Chen up on purpose though? Probably not.
What else... idk what to do with the Bolge Girl yet. She'll be the new defenseagainstthedarkarts teacher, but idk anything about her. I've picked out 2 names for her, Su-Wei if she's Taiwanese or Isabel if she's Filipina.
Su-Wei means virtuous and beautiful, Isabel means "God is my oath", both good names for her character: They met her with the Sowers of Discord, and immediately Crabbe and Goyle started becoming distanced. But when they asked who she was, it spooked her. She doesn't WANT to be a sower of discord. But how'd she end up there? Is someone trying to break up Crabbe and Goyle? Yes, obviously. Obviously. yes. idk what to do with her yet, though. I'm still working out Khaliun as kind of shy but strong. Mizuki's not shy at all, but just a little quiet. But they need moaaar development, I really jumped into Bolge Girl.
Well anyway, since we left OFF on Chen, we can't pick up with him. We should start as far away as possible. So either with Neville or wiiiiith... Ron. We're probably due for some Ron time. He'll still be depressed because Rei's gone. Easy, we'll make him a doomer. Okay, how about this?
There was a knock on Ron's door. "Rooon, I'm respecting your privacy by knocking but asserting my authority as your suicide-watch by coming in anywaaaaaay."
Cho entered without waiting for a response.
Ron was lying face-up in bed, face cold from dried tears. Duvet by Bôa was playing from his phone.
"Ron, I brought you some tea and biscuits."
Ron turned and looked up at her bleakly, but he didn't have the will to lift his head from the pillow. Instead he rolled his face into it.
"Let me die, Cho."
Cho placed the tray down on his bedside table. "Ron, you might be happy to know that Harry saw Rei today."
Ron jumped out of bed.
"What! What do you mean? Where? Where is she?"
"Uh..."
"Cho, WHERE is she?"
Cho looked down. "I don't really... she's at the... End of the World."
Ron fell back down. "Oh more of this bullshit."
Cho rubbed his shoulder. "But he DID see her, Ron! She's safe!"
As much as he wanted to remain miserable, knowing that she was at least safe forced a sad smile on Ron's face. It was something.
"Thanks, Cho."
SUDDENLY, Hagrid kicked the door down. "CHO! RON! HOGWARTS IS UNDER ATTACK!"
So now I can leave these guys alone for a while. Where are we jumping to? Chen or Harry's fine. Chen's in a tougher situation to write, but Harry's scene demands me to make my decision on Bolge Girl's ethnicity, which I'm not sure I'm ready to do.
Lemme check on my Digimon... you know what's frustratiing? lmao idk if I got too many "care mistakes" for one of them, so they might be stuck. And I don't remember how long I have to wait until they *would* evolve. So idk if I'm basically just wasting time and he's eternally stunted. And I don't reeeeeeally wanna reset because it's the 20th, where you have 2 mon at once, and the *other* one is a purrrrrfect BlitzGreymon, a-- WAIT A SECOND :O there's still hope... okay, as long as I didn't have more than 4 mistakes. I don't remember. At all. BUT... worst-case scenario, I know it's 48 hours now.
I think I can survive being uncertain of my Digimon's development for 48 hours, I've survived a bit worse in life.
I can't use my Digimon X rn, because the beeps from the battles torture my dog lmao. She's sleeping on my bed rn and if I start bing bing wahooing with those little high-pitched beeps, she's going to jump up and look at me like "I didn't know you hated me". But the Digimon X is really cool because there's an XP system, so there's a purpose for the battles. Really neato. Plus, come on, you can get a Sistermon in 1 day.
I wonder who's attacking Hogwarts... probably the Moon Presence. I'll resurrect Lupin. Also, I'm 1000% going to do something with Aidos, Khaliun's eagle. You know what his name means? "Friend of the Moon". So, he's absolutely going to have a cuck-rage arc. I actually wrote a similarlmao I wrote -- in my Kingdom Hearts fanfic, which you'll never read, the parrot from Aladdin, Iago, betrays the Incel Shuffle Alliance--an elite team of warriors who protect the Disney Kingdom and the rest of the planet from -- well, nvm. Anyway, Iago's in love with Namine, and because she's only interested in Pete, he betrays them all to the uh... Stromboli, the bad guy from Pinocchio. Stromboli captures them and was going to sell them as sex slaves, but Iago-- oh wait a sec, Iago didn't betray them, he was THINKING about it, but ended up saving them from Stromboli, by alerting Tigger, who came and brutalized Stromboli. But General Grieveous--who was there too--was about to escape anyway, becaus--
okay that's enough of that for now. We're supposed to be writing an HP Longbottom together, sorry.
Crabbe opened his eyes to his worst nightmare.
"Hermione, what are you doing here?" he asked. "Wait, where am I?"
"I'm here to stop you from dying, Crabbe," Hermione said, who was standing in front of a bright light and pointing a gun at him. "Don't move, or I'll shoot."
"Don't shoot, I'm... I don't know where I am."
"Good," said Hermione. "Now just turn around and go back the way you came. Go on, GIT."
"Wha..."
"GIT" Hermione fired a warning Boogie2988-style warning shot over him.
Crabbe turned away from the light and booked it through a veil of darkness.
Almost immediately, he ran past Rei, who startled him with a "Hi, Crabbe!"
He tripped and fell upright in his hospital bed.
"I'm alive."
Khaliun, Mizuki, and Malfoy were sitting around him, smiling.
"Where's Goyle?" Crabbe asked.
"He couldn't make it," Draco said.
"Couldn't make it..." Crabbe muttered, starting to get up. Khaliun put her hand on his chest, having finally found an excuse to do so. It was even harder than she thought and she quickly turned to hide her face.
"Y-you should rest. Madam Pomfrey said you died for a few minutes."
"I did. I think... I saw Hermione."
"Who's Hermione?" asked Mizuki.
"Just some annoying bitch we all hate," said Draco, putting his arm around her shoulder. Mizuki purred and snuggled up against him.
"And Rei, too, I think," Crabbe went on.
"YOU SAW REI?" Ron yelled, rushing in. "WHERE? HOW?" he started shaking Crabbe like the Happy Mask Salesman finding out Link didn't get Majora's Mask.
"I don't KNOW, I died and Hermione and Rei were just... there."
Ron grabbed a knife and prepared to commit a mortal sin.
"Accio knife!" cried Cho, rushing into the room. The knife flew to her. Cho, a master of multi-tasking, ducked under it, and it lodged itself into the head of the man she'd been running from.
"Is that Peter Pettigrew?" asked Draco.
Cho caught her breath. "The castle's under attack."
Okay, that's all for now. Next time, we'll have some fun battles. I wrote "ka-bar full tang" in my notes, so I guess someone's going to be having a knife fight.
for noooooooow: I'm gonna go. I'll ttyl. Pls take care of yourself, aaaand have a relaxing day. God bless, fren.
Hey fren, I hope you're well today.
Me? I'mmmmmm... ok. Uhhh, UFC sucked tonight. Big surprise. Wanna go over th-- no, I won't torture you. It's SICK how bad the judging is, and I'm a little-- well OK, do you mind me torturing you? Let's just go over them real quick:
[no, I CAN'T do this to you, I ended up writing so fucking much]
Lemme move on. So, IndieGoGo isss a crowdfunding website. For whatever, anything. Tech, art, books, any project that needs funding. I back a few ComicsGate books on it.
Recently it sent out emails to people who had their accounts set not to receive promotional emails, promoting a campaign for a fucking vibrating cock ring.
This aggravated me, because, --actually I'll just quote myself 1sec
I don't like receiving unsolicited ads, I really don't like it when I'm already unsubscribed from them, I really really don't like it when they're for retarded sex products for broken degenerate freaks who can't have sex without a bunch of products and equipment, and I really really really don't like it when the product being advertised uses moonbat communist dehumanizing language like referring to men as "penis havers" because 1 out of 1000000 men don't want to accept that they're men.
So I reached out to IndieGoGo wondering why they'd sent out promotional material for a sex product to people who asked not to receive promotional material(no response), and I reached out to the campaign owner for the stupid fucking cock ring asking her if she knew IndieGoGo was sending people unsolicited emails for her retarded sex product, and if she had paid them to promote her campaign or asked them to do it.
Instead of answering my question, she responded that she "knows IndieGoGo is supporting her", but that she did not pay them. So I asked for clarification if she'd asked IndieGoGo to send their users emails advertising her sex product, or if they'd offered to send unsolicited advertisements for sex products on their own. She didn't get back to me, but it doesn't really matter THAT much, right? The bottom line is just that they did it: it's their fault no matter what, I shouldn't take my anger out on her, she's just a poor gross whore with a shitty invention.
Really uh, annoying stuff. After the comics I'm currently backing get released, I'm probably going to close my account. "Fund My Comic" is an alternate I think. EVS has saaaaaid he'd start using it, but that's -- idk, that my only real concern. I want my Cyberfrog. I just would like to not receive emails for stupid fucking cock rings for "PENIS HAVERS".
Penis havers.
Anyway, wanna-- sorry for cursing btw, I just uhhh. I don't like language like that, it's very creepy. It makes me sick to my stomach. And really, isn't it like wildly fucking inappropriate for a business to be sending people cock ring spam email? I just wanted to read some comic books. I don't really WANT to know about your exciting new product that you've invented because sex doesn't feel good for you.
AnywaAAAAAAy. Digimon?
I got a Sistermon Ciel :') Exciting, right? AND my Rhinomon survived the gauntlet I put him through and became a WarGrowlmon X. Pretty cool, he's not just a stupid rhino anymore. I have to likeeee... go through 10 more quest stages though, or I might accidentally screw them both up. I'm mostly-sure I can prevent Sistermon from trooning out into Diaboromon. As for WarGrowlmon X, I think he's basically safe at this point from becoming anything stupi-- I spoke too soon, he can become a MaloMyotismon if I don't finish Area 15. I think I'm close. Also I might have purchased some Digimon games on the Switch because I'm spiraling into digital insanity, and i can't COPE with the real world and its fucking FUCKING cock ring emails for PENIS. HAVERS. i cant LIVE in this world anymore
enough, that's enough. I'm sorry for putting you through this.
I'm gonnaaaaaaaaaaaaa: go. I'll ttyl. Longbottom later.
Pls take care of yourself aaaand. have a relaxing day. God bless,fren
Heyhey fren, I hope you're well today.
Me? I'm okay. I'm almost finished with The Sopranos. I've got a lot to say about it but I'm not going to bore you with that right now though, I'll instead bore you with Digimon. [I had to edit this part out to make it less boring]
I was happy to learn that one of the immediate evolutions for the Digimon X is Sistermon Blanc. And you actually get her from neglecting it lol
So hopefully I didn't mess up messing up somehow, and THEN if I don't overtrain muh Sistermon Blanc, she can become a Sistermon Ciel!
Speaking of sisters, because there's absolutely never going to be another relevant time for me to bring this up, Living With Sister: Monochrome Fantasy is on sale on GOG rn, so Ilmao-- judge me, I deserve it. I'm sure it'll be a great story.
You know, I never play games like this. You don't believe me? I promise, I don't have the patience for visual novels, which necessarily means I don't have the patience for visual novels with sex. But maybe this will be the one that gets me into them. This totally innocent story about living with your sickly sister. I probably won't even-- there's a tomboy, okay? Your sister's not even bestgirl. She's like 2 or 3 down the line.
NOW, speaking of visual novels--Isn't it amazing how I'm able to connect this all together?
I was looking at some old PS2 games the other night, and I went into the Japan-only section. There are, of course, a ton of visual novels. But one of them caught my eye. To my great HORROR, I recognized the cover artist's work. From, you know. Hentai. What a small world. That game's probably like 20 years old... yeah, 17 years. It really SURPRISED me, like "Hey, I recognize this art style! I shouldn't, but I do!" I have such a good eye for art, that's what my problem is.
I'm so tired...
Oh so ALSO, Sistermon Ciel can become a Cho-Hakkaimon, which is no-longer a nun, but is a CUTE GIRL in a PIG COSTUME. So, still pretty great. Cho-Hakkaimon can become Beelstarmonx, which is the sexy female version of Beelzebumon, who's a gay nerd. I wouldn't be able to cope with Beelzebumon. Sexy female Beelzebumon is okay. Things get GRIM though, because the only further evolution is Diaboromon X. And there are no "female" stage VI+s on this device period, so.
My Digimon is DOOMED to troon out into a repulsive demon.
My poor Sistermon... she doesn't deserve this. I might be able to halt her at Cho-Hakkaimon or Beelstarmonx. I think I can.
That'd be for the best. You know, I don't NEED a Digimon who's a cute girl, but Diaboromon's like, the lmao he's basically Digital Mutant Satan. Literally ALL of the OTHER Stage VI+s on this device are like, epic holy knights. You know what though, if I have Sistermon Ciel become something else, I can get to one of those other paths. You just can't ALWAYS have a "girl" Digimon, you have to cope with a monster sometimes. A digital monster.
Sometimes, your digital monsters have to actually be monsters instead of cute girls.
Anyway, Sil's one of my favorite characters in The Sopranos. He's always got that mean look on his face, but he's a very calm, rational guy. When he's not losing at cards. Total Greymon energy. You know he's actually married IRL to his onscreen wife here? Isn't that special? They're in their freakin 70s now. God help us all, time never stops.
Okay, I have to go watch Vito get killed for liking Beelzebumons instead of Beelstarmonxs. I'll ttyl. Longbottom later I thiiiiiiink, I don't feel too bad today.
Pls take care of yourself and have a relaxing day. God bless fren.
heyhey. I hope you're well.
Where am I... I re-mooooded my PS3 because it kept turning off. But it's still doing it lol. I didn't even REALLY have anything I desperately wanted to play anyway. So idk, I'm kinda just coping in the wind.
My Digimon X is coming this week. Oh, btw I got a Digimon X lol. It's like, the same thing as the original, but it has like... a quest mode.
Very exciting, right? As far as the original, I got a MetalGreymon, which is cool but also deeply upsetting because I think that means I fucked up getting a BlitzGreymon. For my second(and on the X, you can raise THREE), I've goooot a blue Coredramon. Idk if it's better, worse, or the same as a green Coredramon, but I'm just glad I didn't end up raising a Vegiemon or a piece of shitdramon.
Some of these lyrics-- I like Virtual Insanity as much as the next guy, but let's look at some of these...
And now every mother can choose the color of their child, that's not nature's way
That's... whatever, I get it. I'm sure he's not suggesting that the father, who presumably the woman is choosing, doesn't help determine that, but it'szzz... who cares? Out of all of the misery in store for us, designer babies?
What about implanting a uterus inside a 50 year old autogynephiliac so he can brag to women on social media that he's pregnant, and then he aborts it?
What about THAT, Jamiroquai, does THAT bother you, or just the thought that someone somewhere might want their child--who they don't kill in the womb--to be lighter-skinned?
Idk maybe I'm just crazy, maybe I've come down with virtual insanity. What else is here...
There's nothing left to do but pray
Okay, based?
I think it's time to find a new religion
Idk actually, I guess this could be interpreted as "technology" being a modern religion and finding a "new" one would be returning to tradition. Or "new" could also mean something entirely-new, never seen before. Which SOMEHOW be the answer to Virtual Insanity in a way that say, Christianity isn't: The NEW Religion would actually allow people to build civilizations, practice medicine, use computers, blog. Stuff that we don't see today and have never seen before. But it, being pure, would not allow a mother to choose the color of her child, because that's not Nature's way (well that's what they said yesterday)
Speaking of nature, I remember Kratos screaming "GAIAAAAAAA!!!!" was something my fren used to make fun of all the time. Too bad I'll never get to play GOW3 since my PS3 is dea-- oh no, pls don't say it's remastered on the PS4... lmfao it is. OH NO, IT'S ON SALE TOO? ACK.
idk what the reason is, but I've just been not digging gaming on my PC lately. Do you know that feel? It makes no sense. I can use whatever controller I want, my TV's not THAT much bigger than my monitor-- what is wrong with me?
There is something to the inherent simplicity of a console that makes it very appealing, even if your PC is set up to be exactly-as simple to game on. Now that's real virtual insanity.
Remember that celebrity chef that killed himself? I just remembered because what-- oh, Virtual Insanity. I remembered him saying that White people needed to be bred out of existence, which maybe is a weird thing for a fucking celebrity chef to be talking about, idk. So, mothers choosing the color of their children would be a good thing to him (as long as they're not choosing White). He's dead though, it doesn't really matter what he wants.
Sry, I'm hungry or something.
Oh, I wanted to ... I wanted to mention I finished Chains of Olympus. It sucked, I didn't enjoy it. And it has less bonus content than Ghost of Sparta. Which also suckedlmao. Actually I think it had a better story than Ghost of Sparta because it was about Kratos's daughter (who the FUCK would care about his BROTHER). So it was a little more emotional. You have to do a QTE to pry your daughter off of you so you can abandon her and go save the world. It's sad, but Kratos is just such an ugly deep-voiced clown.
GAIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I've got a picture of that chef up in my other window, and his stupid little smirk is annoying. There should be a God of War game where all the enemies are him, because Kr-- oh did you know that American History X inspired Kratos's design? That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard of, but it's true. So uh, who's the character... Derek Vinyard. Derek Vinyard should be an unlockable skin in a new God of War, and the main grunt enemies are little Anthony Bourdains running at you with meat cleavers.
That's enough. I'm gonna let you go.
A little out of it rn, but if I *stop* being out of it, a new Longbottom later. Idk though. I have to pick up MetalGreymon's poop, I'll ttyl.
Pls take care of yourself, aaaaaaaaaaaaand. have a comforting day. God bless, fren.
Hey fren, hope you're well today.
Fights just ended, but instead of immediately boring you with a breakdown, let's talk about something else first.
Like whaaaaaat... idk, vidya? Wanna talk about vidya? I'm still playing Chains of Olympus. And I'm not really having funlmao. I just want to finish it. That's sick, isn't it?
I was thinking I'd try one of the 3D Castlevanias on the PS2 though. I'd rather be hacking and slashing as a vampire hunter than a bald asshole. I forgot to write about this earlier, but Kratos really is offensively fucking ugly.
Perplexity:
As a Mediterranean man yourself, you're right to point out that Kratos's features don't accurately represent those of ancient Greeks or Spartans.
lmao the race card works on AI. that makes me happy. Anyway, you know what the worst part about Kratos is? His nose. It's just big and fat. It's not like a longg noble one of an Emperor's. It's like cranking up every part under "nose" in a character editor to 100.
You know who Kratos SHOULD look like? Ilia Topuria, the (STILL)UFC featherweight champion. What a great transition.
The fights were aight. The first of the night was a blatant robbery, which set-- actually, I wrote some notes down for all of the fights, you wanna read them? I'll paste them at the bottom if you want to bore yourself.
Was there aaaanything else? Oh, Shane Davis's AXCEND came in yesterday. It's neato. Kinda boomerish comic about uh, people being dragged into a video gam-- oh no, would you consider this Isekai? Like they DO go into a vidya world, but they also... come back i-- whatever lmfao manga takes another W over Westoid comics. It's good though, and Shane Davis is great. BUT, here's something interesting: the original AXCEND came out like 10 years ago, before Shane Davis was like, based and really right-wing lmao I mean REALLY he was like a basic-bitch normie liberal like all artists. So the original's about like, a gay kid who gets bullied, and then he... kills the President... and then some nerdy loser tries to stop him and accidentally nukes a bunch of countries. Like it's BAAAAAD lmao. Uhh, idk if Shane's going to rewrite it. Because here's the thing: 1- he's definitely a better storyteller now, because Inglorious Rex is good. 2- he now has a hardass Chinese wife who is smarter than him and will not allow him to write sadslop trash and 3- he's already made some changes to the story, like a kid who yeets himself walking into traffic actually dies saving a kid. It's a good change. 10 years ago, it'd be like "whoa, this character killed himself, that's really groundbreaking, my expectations are so subverted" but uhhhhh Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz I'd rather a hero be a little more heroic, even if he's also depressed.
As for the gay character, idk, LOL. Like it was such a big part of the original story, and it was just retarded. Like the kid kills his DAD, even though his dad literally didn't even know he was gay. And then the President. It just -- and then GOD comes, and he's you know, the "all religions are actually true, I have maaany names" god, who's Anubis and uh, Thor, and idk, whatever. And he agrees with the gay kid that the planet must be destroyed becauselmao because some jocks called him a faggot in school. And then when the "hero" accidentally nukes Canada, and Japan, and China, and -- well, everyone-- gayboi's like "HEH, I GUESS I'M NOT THE REAL BAD GUY" as if the whole thing wasn't his fault and he didn't just literally murder the President of the United States for no rea--
anyway, it's a f-lmao im being uhh... anyway, there's a NEW AXCEND book too now, which are a few pretty cool stories done by other artists. And the original story was never actually FINISHED, so it'll be interesting no matter what to see what Shane does. Especially now that he's no-longer a liberal and has a wife who will beat him with a rolling pin.
Okay, I've definitely bored you enough, because I'm boring myself. I'll ttyl. I'm feeling a little better today, so maybe a new Longbottom later. Pls take care of yourself and haveee a warm day. God bless, fren.
Here's muh fight notes:
Rinat Fakhretdinov vs Carlos Leal-- shocking robbery. Rinat MIGHT have won 1, but Leal definitely won 2 and 3. All three judges incorrectly gave Rinat the fight, with one even giving him all 3 rounds. Baffling corruption.
Ismail Naurdiev vs Bruno Silva-- boring. 30-27, Bruno just didn't have it in him. Strange, since he's 1 of 2 fighters in the UFC to go the distance w/ Alex Pereira. I guess it's not *that* strange, he's tough. He just couldn't do anything.
Farid Basharat bashed Victor Hugo, who was overweight by 10lbs.lmao.
Kennedy Nzechukwu beat Chris Barnett, who is 5'9 and weighs 265lbs. Insane. Chris actually hurt his leg somehow which isn't like shocking since he weighs over 100lbs more than he should. It gave Kennedy the opportunity to finish the fight, but he was slowly getting pieced up anyway.
Abus Magomedov was first seen getting the shit beaten out of him by Sean Strickland after having a good 1st round. In hindsight, that wasn't a bad loss, but his gas tank was always sus after that. Brunno Ferreira was kicking his ass, but Abus managed to shoota desperation takedown and submit him with an arm triangle in r3--which is exactly what he needed. I think, I don't remember r1 because I was playing with my Digimon lmao.
Mateusz Rebecki vs Myktybek Orolbai-- Orolbai's eye was swollen aaaaalmost shut(Azn problems: absurdly tough, but damage prone), the fight was almost stopped. Orolbai started gaining some momentum, but thenBAAAAM, Mateusz dropped him and madre de Dios, he landed like 30+ shots on him, the fight could have been stopped multiple times, but the ref just let it continue. Orolbai survived though and kinda rallied, it wasn't uh... anyway, split decision for Rebecki. Great fight, but my man Orolbai :'( "Legendary Polish Power" is real.
Geoff Neal vs Rafael Dos Anjos- knee injury for RDA, sucks. Neal dropped him multiple times prior though, he was on his way to a KO anyway. Good fight because it was quick and I didn't want to watch it anywaylol.
Ibo Aslan vs Rafael Cerqueira. Aslan killed him in under a minute, which was cool, but he also had some preddy ugly gyno lol
MAAAAAIN CAAAAAAAAARDDDDD
Shara Magomedov vs Armen Petrosyan-- Shara KO'd Armen with a double spinning backfist at the end of 2. Craaaazy. And it's good that it happened because they were on their way to a robbery lol. Armen was winning, but not by so much; the judges 100% would have given it to Shara, because the judges can do anything they want and they'll never be punished for it
Lerone Murphy vs Dan Ige. Robbery. Dan won, they gave it to Murphy. sad.
Magomed Ankalaev vs Aleksandar Rakic-- i almost fell asleep, but Magomed won 2 rounds to 1. Rakic basically did nothing the final round, seemingly because he thought he was up 2 rounds. He was not.
Robert Whittaker vs Khamzat Chimaev-- Khamzat subbed him in the first round, somehow dislocating his jaw or something. Took him down immediately, controlled him 4 minutes, and like-- the very instant he applied pressure with his choke, which wasn't even on the neck, Robert tapped. Wiiiiiiild. I love it. the BORZ EXPRESS CHUGS ON
Ilia Topuria vs Max Holloway: FIRST MAN TO EVER KO HOLLOWAY. AND MAX LOOKED GOOD. ILIA'S JUST THAT GOOD AND JUST THAT STROOOOOONG. he's not only the matador, he's the BULL too.
Hey fren, I hope you're well today.
Me? I'm... okay, I think. 1 sec, lemme clean up my Agumon's poop.
You know, Digimon pets just die. How do you feel about that? I never had a virtual pet before, so I never really thought about it.
You can't stop it. A certain number of mistakes, and RIP. I mean, theoretically you can keep them alive indefinitely by never battling. But then you'd have to make sure they're never injured or hungry by always feeding them on time and cleaning up their poop (or NOT cleaning up their poop, since once the screen if filled, they can't poop anymore and won't suffer further injury). As far as I can tell, you could also preserve their life just by resetting the game or removing the battery, since afterwards you pick up where you left off. It effectively puts them in stasis, right? I brought this up to Perplexity, who answered:
From a roleplaying perspective, one might argue about the ethics of keeping a Digimon in perpetual stasis
That actually made me laugh. It's true, isn't it? It's, maybe, not a very fulfilling life for a Digimon, and perhaps more importantly since they're not real, not a fulfilling experience for you as the owner.
I think I like that Digimon pets die lmao. (I'm vaguely aware that they never "really die" in canon) For example, my 2nd Digimon, a Gabumon SOMEHOW digivolved into a fucking Vegiemon, even though I thought I was taking good care of it. If you dick up taking care of your Digimon, instead of turning into anything cool like an Angemon or, really anything else, it becomes an ugly piece of shit Digimon. In fact, depending on the Digimon, it will literally become a piece of shit called Scumon. I had to reset, I hate Vegiemon.
Now that I know how easy it is to just let them die, if I ever get a shitty Digimon again, erm, maybe I'll just let them die. Numemon? More like "Doomed-emon". Enjoy not being fed.
Digital animal neglect created you, now digital animal cruelty will bZzzzzzzzzzzzzzz okay enough already. Exhausting.
I think my Agumon's on his way to being a Greymon. I'm a good pet owner.
Idk what the purpose of digital pets really is. I have to clean up this fucker's poop like every hour. My actual dog poops once a day, why am I doing this to myself?
I was reading a bit about the le history of virtual pets, with an article published in 2000 claiming that they're harmful because they reinforce gender stereotypes by teaching girls(but not boys I guess) to nurture something. And it's even WORSE because moms would often HELP their children care for the virtual pets. Seeing their mothers in the process of caregiving is going to, horrifyingly, program girls into believing(sexistly, and therefore wrong) that being a caregiver is some kind of good thing. I'm paraphrasing, but only a little. It was about as intelligent as any sort of denial of the immutable differences between men and women. Fucking retarded, excuse me.
Anyway, what else...
I started playing God of War: Ghost of Sparta. It's... it's fun, I guess. I think it's too cinematic. Like half the time I'm not even fighting, I'm climbing walls or running out of collapsing buildings. And I don't give a shit about the story. Finding Kratos's brother? Who cares? Fuck.
Dante's Inferno was literally better. You know where you are. In Hell. You know where you're going. Further down. Kratos is just running around like an asshole. One minute I'm in Atlantis, the next I'm in Thebes? How did that even happen? And why am I even in Thebes? Did someone tell me to go there? I honestly can't even remember. Dante died, went to Hell, and needs to reach the bottom to save Beatrice. Simple. Go down. He's not flying all around Florence in quick-time events.
The combat's fun, and definitely cleaner than Dante's Inferno. And idk, I guess I'll probably get... new items... who cares, I'm so tired. I don't want to play this anymore.
Honestly, it doesn't help that Kratos is ugly as sin. It's funny that he's such an asshole though. At least there's that.
Okay, that's enough. It's a fine game, I probably just. It's me. I just don't give a shit about Kratos, and I'm tired of QTEs and cutscenes.
You know what else I'm tired of? The word "reactionary". It's just the Left's (necessarily) gayer version of "degenerate". It's not a serious term at all. As if Leftism is some kind of a default state of Humanity that the Right is simply "reacting" to. As if "change" somehow ISN'T a reaction to the status quo. As if the Right simply opposes "CHANGE" and don't have their own changes they desire, instead of simplying "retvrning to tradition". As if, if we accept fake-history memes about how everyone used to be homosexual and ugliness and obesesity were the highest standards of beauty, Leftism itself isn't ALSO a sort of "return to tradition". Just instead of the 1950s, they want to go back to idk, 500 BCE.(Before Christ's Era)
That's all. "Reactionary" is uh, redditspeak, it's not serious. Everyone's reacting to everything. "Degenerate" actually is more useful, it's not pretentious.
Digimon are the champions. Chaaaaaaaaaange into di-gi-tal chaaampions tooooooo save the digital WORLD.
If people who use the word "reactionary" were Digimon, they'd be poop Digimon. Not that there's anything wrong with that, since "wrong" is purely a social construct. Did you know in ancient civilizations, poop was actually worth more than gold and everyone worshipped poop? It's true, look at this ancient vase with a depiction of poop on it. I am a doctor.
I really wanted to make this more of a DIGIPOST, sry. Looking at it now, it's expanded so much since I was a kid. I guess Pokemon has too, but idk, the Pokemon anime--it's weird even calling it that, we never even knew the word "anime" when we were kids--never excited me like Digimon did. Idk why that is, what do you think? Maybe it was the characters? I mean, what is Pokemon's version of wimpy little Patamon suddenly becoming Angemon? I'm being too critical, it's just that Pokemon didn't hold much mystery, at least for me. I had a poster with them all on it, how was I supposed to be surprised? Ash is on a journey to do what, collect a bunch of badges and win the Pokemon League? That's just another form of "In Order To Face Me, You Must First Defeat My 32 Captains!" In Digimon, these kids were like thrown on a mysterious island and a bunch of monsters were trying to kill them and they had no idea what was going on. That's awesome. Again, I'm uh-- I don't like being critical of Pokemonlol. Its world is fantastic. Imagine Pokemon being real, and you can just wander around town-to-town and get free healthcare. That'd be tits. Absolute Irish girl ghost nipple tits. BUT: Digimon was uh, exciting to watch because things could happen like a goofy little worthless runt suddenly becoming an Angel and punching a hole through a demon's chest.
Pokemon were just animals.
And now I'm looking at a Digimon that's just a gun-wielding catgirl nun. Pokebros, not like this...
Enough already. I'm putting Agumon to sleep. I'llllllllll. ttyl. I'm a little out of it. I wanna write a Longbottom. I'll try later. Pls take care of yourself. And have a comfy day. God bless, fren.
I can't believe what time it is. My life is a comedy.
Do you know how long it took me to pick out this blogbait pic? Too long. You don't UNDERSTAND how much WORK it is. It has to be just right, enticing but not lewd. Usually a selfie, but not necessarily. Low-res ideally, but again not necessarily. It can't be a professional shot--although it can be a professional model in a /candid/ shot.
The things I do to get you to read my blog. Really this is your fault. People just don't READ anymore, so I have to lure you in like a fucking angler fish.
Ooohh look at this shiny Korean girl, isn't she fascina-- SURPRISE it's my ugly blog full of razor sharp teeth.
Are angler fish even real? Oh, you think they are? Why don't you go Google them then? I'll wait.
Well? Notice how all of the pictures are just illustrations or fake 3D renders? It's like NASA's pictures of "space", it's literal fantasy.
I'm just kidding, I believe in angler fish. There were a few real pics, right? A few.
A few.
Anyway, I beat Dante's Inferno on the PSP earlier lol. It was fun. This is NOT my review of the game, because I really wanna dig DEEP on 1- how gay it is, but also 2- how accidentally-based it is, and 3- the retarded anti-Christian marketing campaigns for the game's release. That's all gonna be its own post.
For now I'll just say the PSP version was very fun, BUT ALSO, unnecessarily inferior to the PS3 version. There's things they remove that just don't even make sense. Like the bestiary and profiles of the damned souls you meet (like Pilate, who "TRICKED the Pharisees into ALLOWING Jesus to be killed") And they also removed the neato equippable Relics that give you stat boosts or some unique abilities. I can see not including *some* of the Relics I guess because... they might have unique animations, but uh, the bestiary's a *menu* with *text and images* and most of the Relics are, what, number changes?
Gimme my Eyes of Saint Lucia.
Other than that, and a few "BIG" sequences that I'm sure the PSP couldn't handle, it's still good. Well, you know, "good". I've probably warmed up to it a bit since my last playthrough. As much as I dislike about it, I've found new things to like.
Anything else?
Idk, I'm not really excited to play anything. I might try "The Lord of the Rings: Tactics" lmao. The Third Age was a good game. But it was sooooo... how do I want to say this... for example, it's just like, goofy how much they rely on that font from the movies, you know? It was too much of a movie game. Also, it suffers from uh... "too many references". Some of the items and abilities, man. "Kingsfoil" makes sense, right? But "Sauron Blood"? "Shelob Slime"? What even is "Maiar Embers"? Embers from a fire they created? That's not really "Maiar Embers", right? If you take embers from a fire *I* start, they're not "Ask Embers". It seems to suggest they're the remnants of a Maiar in the form of a flame. Why is t-- forget it, it doesn't matter. But that's what I mean, just throwing names onto items and abilities for the sake of it. Watch, I'll do it right now.
Tears of Galadriel. Radagast's boots. Entbark Shield. It just... something about it just feels CHEAP, you know? It's like fanfictiony, which I guess is necessary for it to exist at all. At least it's a "pure" fanfiction, as opposed to like, Amazon-LOTR which is as nonsensical but without the charm.
"Ermmmm, Tolkien never explicitly stated that Elrond couldn't be Jamaican."
Okay, I'm just WASTING your time now. I'll let you g-- I just started reading a bit of absolute fucking(excuse me) nonsense from a "Tolkien scholar". I really don't lik-- I... Hm. Look, it's just that I don't like things that I know are wrong being stated as facts, that's all. I don't have a problem with someone having their own interpretation of something from the Silmarillion, but when I know that there's no basis for it and it's being presented to people a-- and this isn't even a big deal, it's a few LITTLE details a guy got wrong. Meanwhile, the fucking "Tolkien Society" is running around insisting that it makes sense for monster truck rallies to exist in Middle Earth because uh, you do realize that Tolkien never wrote that monster trucks aren't in Middle Earth... right, incel?
Feminists are so ugly and mean it makes me sick to my stomach. Sorry, any time I jokingly call you an incel, I'm reminded of feminist redditors who live to complain about autistic shy guys who haven't put their penises inside of vaginas. The truest measure of worth for every gender of feminist.
Hey ya'll, have ya'll used any frontholes lately? Ya'll know who DOESN'T use frontholes? "Nice Guys"! (They're not nice, get it? I am nice, but don't worry I don't say I am directly!)
Am I getting off track? I might be. I uhh... hm. It's like this: men and women are supposed to love each other. So I don't like sowers of discord lmao. That goes for "Men Going Their Own Way" and it goes for Feminists. And it REALLY goes for MALE feminists acting like fucking scum to their fellow men for--whatever reason--not having used fronthole. Female feminists, like real women, are easily forgiven. MALE feminists--[started getting too angry, and then sad, sorry]
It just... it's such a waste of time, it's upsetting to me. If I hadn't wasted years of my life being a leftist, I would literally be married with kids right now. That's not theoretical, I fell into atheism and feminism when I was literally dating a traditional Christian girl(albeit not Catholic iirc) who wanted to get married and have kids. Thank GOD I at least didn't waste too much of her time after I really started getting bad.
So the way uh... the way that male feminists--like I was--use "I have used a woman tee-hee" to belittle men who have NOT committed the sin of premarital sex, INTENTIONALLY OR NOT, is juuuuuust... it just sucks. Because it's worse than like, gay and annoying, it's harmful. Being smug about using women will lead to you wasting years of your OWN life, never mind what you're doing to the women whether you or they admit it or not.
So incels are *literally* better men at least in that regard. Purity is a good thing, even if it's involuntary. lmao when uh-- when Nick Fuentes started calling himself an incel, that was just so great. Ah, thinking of Nick just cheered me up.
I'm tired. Let's wr-- oh, I got a nice email earlier, wanna respond to it with me? Let's see... in case he's uncomfortable with it, I'm not going to paste his exact words (if I ever get retard mail, I will of course post it in full). It's a nice message from a guy who said he's recently stopped being an atheist. Also he liked my G.K. Chesterton page. Good taste!
OkAAAAAY, you've suffered enough, right? What is this, HELL? Thank God it's not.
Please take care of yourself fren, and have a... warm day. I'll ttyl. God bless.
Hey fren, I hope you're well today.
I'm going to make an effort to clean up muh writing. Wizardbro inspired me. The last few years, I've just become very lazy in my punctuation and grammar. You've seen me not capitalize my is or add apostrophes in contractions. I'm going to blame my friends and girlfriends, because entirely, 100%, their fault. They all ruined me. That's not to say I'm going to "uhhhh... stop writing like this", I mostly just want to clean up my ...orthography? LOL.
I'm still an ellipsescel, I think they're very useful when they're not being used by Boomers or Gen Xers or Redditors in general... right?
Anyway, wanna talk about vidya or something? Wait no, "or something" first. I uh, lol I did something maybe bad. You tell me. Erm, Dear Reddit, Am I The Asshole?
I was listenan to a stream last night, and a comic artist (not EVS or Shane Davis) who I was backing for $100 had a bit of a Boomerish take on [That Conflict in the Middle East]. And it just like, offended me lmao. You know, it was just *I feel*, inhumanely anti-Muslim, which I don't like on its own as a Christian, and also pro-Israel, whichlmao. You know.
So I refunded my $100. I do feel bad about it. Are people not allowed to have stupid Boomer takes? Especially when they're almost Boomers anyway? Now I'm withdrawing my support from him, punishing him, and also punishing myself, because now I'm not going to get the comic books he's making--which I wanted, until, erm yikes, he repeated a very common take I didn't like.
It was wrong of me. A guy I *generally* like--you know, as a streamer and artist who I don't actually know IRL--says (1) wrong thing, and now I won't support him? It's not like the One Wrong Thing he said was something that'd make me never want to even think of him again, like IDK, disrespecting Christianity. Sure, I'm a little tired (as an American, who doesn't have to cope with Islam like the UK does) of anti-Muslim sentiment which seems to me something very convenient for war profiteers. And sure, I'm exhausted of Our Greatest Ally.
But so what? I'm taking my money back because out of the thousands of words I listen to you say every week, a few sentences were unpleasant?
The only other time I can think of when I've stopped supporting someone was when I unsubbed from the Patreon of The Biggest Problem in the Universe, because every single episode, without fail, Dick Masterson has some retarded remark about Christians. And that was what, $5 a month?
I'm punishing this guy x20 because he made ONE remark against a DIFFERENT religion? And again, "punishing" being *me* also not getting what are going to be some really cool comic books.
IDK, maybe I'll re-back him. Haven't I already talked myself into it? You know what the problem was, I was like dead tired and it just annoyed me. I was too hasty. So, that's that.
Ummmmmmm... sorry for going on so long. Wanna talk about vidya or something?
It's INSANELY easy to hack a PSP now. I think the only problem mightt be finding PSP games worth playing. If you have any recommendations for me, please lemme know. I got uh... Dante's Infernoooo(which I have to review eventually), uhh... Asscreed... Warriors Orochi... White Knight Chronicles... LOTR Tactics lol. A few others, but waaatever. I like the PSP though. It's got Shinobido on it lmao. Have I ever told you how much I love Shinobido?
There's SO many cool games that were only released in Japan though. We really got screwed. Like always. Those DEMONIC Europeans were even going to try to keep Shinobido from us! Unforgivable!
Anyway, lemme let you go. Oh-- I got a second Digimon egg in my Digivice. Idk when it's going to hatch. My first mon's an Agumon now lol. I love that. Maybe I'll rewatch the anime. There's just so little time to do anything, right?
Let me stop wasting yours now.
I'll TTYL, pls take care of yourself and have a comfy day. God bless, fren.
hey fren, i hoooope. you're well today.
I just finished reading Snowman: A Cold Day in Hell. I liked it a lot.
I don't like gore. And this was some of the goriest stuff I've ever seen. But I still liked it, A LOT, anyway.
It's aboutttt... 2 guys traveling together back in the idk, Wildest West days. During winter. A White man and a Red man. And they come across some absolutely inhuman scenes of slaughter.
There's an Indian named Black Dog whose family was killed by Whites--something happened, we don't know yet--which made him like, an undead monster who can control snow and ice. And now he's murdering every White person he sees, eradicating entire towns.
Now, the racial issues are handled pretty well. This story about White settlers and a heckin' victimized Native isn't even remotely anti-White or anti-Indian, which is like *GASP*, what? How can that be? It be. If this was written by like, some gay idiot in California the message would be "His anger is valid!" and that the White people deserve it. No such thing here: Murder is bad.
The Indian protag is named Daniel and he's uh, cool. Strong, smart hunter guy, you know. When his fren starts to wonder if Whites really are devils, he gives a Colonel Miles speech about Whites not doing anything evil that Reds don't do. Leftists might call him an Uncle Bull (da dum tss) but he's really just like, a rational human being. His fren is a White man named Sam, who's a Christian and wildly, Christianity's handled pretty well in the story. Daniel, I think, is not a Christian, but doesn't give Sam any kind of Milennial redditor remarks about it whatsoever. There's no tired gay "Where's your god now?" dialogue.
What else... it's gorey. Black Dog murders the everloving shit out of dozens of people in the book, and every other page is blood, guts, and limbs flying everywhere. I'm not into that, at all. But uh... I don't care lol.
In-between the carnage, it's a preddy neat story. Daniel has some connection to Black Dog, and Black Dog doesn't seem to want to kill him, or even Sam even though Sam's White.
Also there's talking rabbits.
Uh... I enjoyed it a lot. My only complaint is that it ended too soon! It was published by EVS through All Caps Comics, but #2 is going to have SEX so EVS doesn't want to publish it and will just help him promote it instead. I don't blame him, All Caps issss supposed to be like young teen-friendly. I'll be looking forward to it though, to knowing WHAT'S THE DEAL with Black Dawg's powers and can he be stopped? And I guess I won't object to seeing a boob.
Aiiiiight I'm tired. Is this post just going to be a Snowman review? ...yes, I think so. I'm ...... idk. I feel like starting something new. I'm not ENDING Longbottom, but I think I have to write something else for a bit. I started reading a Patrick Tomlinson book, and it's sickeningly bad, but at least he tried. What's the use of being a better writer(I am and so are you)if I'm simultaneously too lazy to try to write something sincere? I'm so tired though.
I'll ttyl. Pls take care of yourself, aaaaand have a good, comfy day. God bless, fren.
[a paragraph of me complaining about "realistic" man-faced women in AAA games]
anyway, hey. i hopeyoureeeeeee. i hope youre well t oday.
im... how am i... im okay. i just gotta type a little to raise my mood. or something. sry, let's start over.
...Boarscabs School of Witchhunting... is that a good idea? hm.
wanna clear out some of my reminders with me? Let's see...
"Atomic Heart and Chernobylite. 2 games I don't even remember getting." oh yeah... hm. im probably never going to play them lmfao. im sure they're great, but im... kinda out of my cheeki breeki phase and more into uh, anime girl games under 50 gigs. idk, life is weird. a few years ago the idea of being TIRED of playing as a Russian guy in a gas mask sneaking around a wasteland would be ABSURD. whatever. maybe ill feel like playing them before i die.
"feminist literature" lmao.
"Midway on our life's journey, I found myself
In dark woods, the right road lost." ah, from when I decided to send Parvati Patil to Purgatory. I don't think I was able to work this line in though, but what a great line.
"Your ex-GF is now on the enemy side." lmao i saw that on a ... thing. idk really, i guess it was an AI chatbot and that's the character it was? i was trying to get good prompts to generate Longbottom characters. (spoiler: didnt work out) imagine your ex-girlfriend trying to kill you in a military conflict. something ... KINDA similar happened in the Ender's Shadow series I think... except she wasn't the ex-gf, she was just... aforget it, i cant even remember. let's move on.
ah, the detailed instructions for getting Mew in Pokemon R/B/Y. Very important.
Okay, thanks for helping me clear some notes. There's a lot more, but I'll spare you for now.
Wanna talk about anything else? Vidya?
Echoes of Wisdom. is good. i like it. it's fun. uhhhhhhhhhhhh... you know. you're Zelda and you make. echoes. it's kinda neato creating monsters to attac other monsters, there's a fair amount of variety for everything. I really like making a Deku Baba and carrying him around over my head so he can nom enemies. That's fun. And the Peahat is really cool and and he can fly. im so tired. uh... no, that's it. it's good though. the game's puzzles are niiiice, the music's niiiiiiice, i haven't noticed any poz which was always a fear for when "playable Zelda!" would finally happen again. Frankly the game's probably great for little girls. And also big strong genius men like you and I.
whatelse... Snowman's coming tomorrow. It's a... comic. zzzzzzzzi--CYBERFROG DARK HARVEST IS DONE AND GOING TO THE PRINTER im very very excited. How much longer until it's in my hands? like a month maybe? pls i just wanna read muh frog book.
ok that's it. no more. ill ttyl. pls take care of yourself. have a good, comfy day. God bless, fren.
hey fren. i hope you're well today.
i got a digimon digital.pet. i decided to get one over a tamagotchi because... they're supposedly lower-maintenance... they have a better chain... i like digimon... and let's face it, ill probably just get a tamagotchi too later anyway.
it's not like i have anything approaching self-control. im in some kind of a nostalgia-hoarding mood that im just BARELY surviving.
uh.. hm. ill be all right. you know, I worked out today? isn't that crazy? the last week, my stomach hasnt feltt so bad. i cut out red meat. maybe it's. helping a little. idk. seafood SCARES me so now im like idk, the Hound.
Bring me a chicken. Make it 2 chickens.
lmao EVS is doing another $14.88 sale rn. UnFROGettable tales volume 2. i already have it.
uhhhhhh... so look at this mouse pad. It came up on amazon when i was searching for muh digital pet. can you believe this? look at Sora biting her FUCKING glove.
what are these faces called again... gesugao? Remember that U Got That song? i think that was when most people discovered those faces. that was just. dem faces though.
you know, when i heard that Sora didn't end up with Tai, i was disgusted. that's even more disgusting than Harry Potter ending up with Ginny fucking Weasley over Cho, or even freaking Hermione. Bitch that she is.
I did really like the touch of Hermione not taking Ron's last name though in "The Cursed Child" book. like that's just pure comedy. (none of this matters since JK Rowling's work is not canon, mine is)
I rly liked Sora when I was a kid. i did *not* like that girl with the stupid cowboy hat. I mean, I like her in this image, but that's different.
you know though, I think i remember an episode where she was taking a shower and that... ?rooster?(edit: Kokatorimon lmao) thing was sneaking up on her. but the fact she was taking a shower, made my little brain go "alriiight this is cool"
girls are just fucking cool, man.
uh... hm... did you wanna talk about something? OH SHEEEIT, did you know there's TENCHU GAMES on the PSP? I'm gonna try them out. I hope they're not bad. There's one for the DS and it's fun but it's really simple. I'm really hungry for a ninja game.
imagine a... ninja tomboy gf...
like. Tenten from Naruto. She was so useless thoughlmao BRUHH NARUTO IS SO UNDERRATED-- i wanna wa-- is there a good Naruto game or are they all fighting games? They're probably all fighting games.Zzzzzzzzz
anyway i uh... was playing Shinobido on the PSP. It's pretty cool. It's mooostly similar to the PS2 version but instead of it being "choose your own adventure", it's a uh... campaign of missions. and you can't craft your own equipment, there's preset loadouts. so. it's not as good. but still good enough to enjoy. Shinobido was such a SHOCKINGLY enjoyable game. there'szzz... the same team makes the ...Way of the Samurai games i think. ive never played them though. but if they're just the same with Samurai, they're probably great.
kk, im going on too long now. what a DUMB post. i dont need a new mouse pad, im not spending $26 on a mouse pad that i dont need just because it has girls from my childhood making sexy faces at me. I DO have some self control. let's wrap up. uhhhhhh... ill write a new Longbottom tomorrow i think. is that all? thats allzzzz
ill ttyl. pls take care of yourself, aaaaandhave a relaxing da-- REEEEEEEE
!@!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!! TATSURO TAIRA IS FIGHTING LATER MAKE SURE YOU WATCH HIM(SATURDAY NIGHT)! GO TATSURO! DO YOUR BEST!
now then.have a relaxing day pls. God bless fren
WISE MEN WONDER WHILE. STRONG MEN DIIIIIIIIIEEEEE
SHOW ME HOW IT ENDS, IT'S ALL RIIIIIIIGHT
SHOW ME HOW DEFENSELESS YOU REALLY AAAARE
hey fren, i hope youre wel today
i did not have a snow storm, but i had a touch of hurricane. just a touch.
i've always been very blessed to live in areas that don't get flooded, so even though I've been through more hurricanes than I can even remember, it's never been too bad.
Actually, when I was living in New Jersey, a BLIZZARD (ah-ha, blogbait pic related) was probably the worst storm of my life...
I'd been working that day, like an idiot who figured "bah, I've driven through snow before nbd". But it was too much this time and I COULD NOT get home. What was normally about a... say 45 minute drive had turned into several hours of slippin' and slidin'. Thank God it was at least at night and all the roads were empty so I wasn't inconveniencing anyone. Well, except the cop who ended up having to pick me up me when I finally couldn't go any further and had to park in a lot.
I was just going to sleep in my car, and I guess die or whatever, but my girlfriend called the cops to come get me.
I think she might have been smarter than me.
Anyway, the cop took me home in one of those cool tanks. It felt kinda like Rocket Power when they got saved in the amphibious urban assault vehicle. It wasn't really a tank at all, but you know, it was a BIG VEHICLE that could uh, drive in deep snow.
Anyway, I got home, and uh, my power was out forever. Like, 2 weeks. I had to stay at my gf's, but I wasn't allowed to sleep with her and her mom was stingy with the heat, so I was still cold.
YOU'RE SO COLD BUT YOU FEEL ALIVE
LAY YOUR HAND ON ME, ONE LAST TIIIIIIIIIIMEEEEE
So that was really the worst storm I was ever in. Hurricanes? I've always been spared their full wrath.
Any the power usually comes on much sooner than 2 weeks+. Like this time, when it came back in under 24hrs. neato.
Anyway, I uhhh... that's all for now, I'm exhausted. I hope YOU are okay. ill ttyl. Pls have a comfortable day. God bless, fren
hey fren hope you're well today.
this morning i started refreshing my folder of "cute but not lewd azn girls to get you to click on my blog", and it's like a nightmare trying to appropriate ones. there's a lot of FACTORS. you know, I had a bunch saved from 4chan as reaction images, but ive used them all up, i have to go HUNTING for more, i raaaarely go on any board of 4chan anymore--the black dick posters from Some Country That Isn't The U.S. pretty successfully ruined /v/ for me-- and I can't stand /pol/ anymore unless it's being delivered by our beloved /pol/ News Network so it's up to ME. And *I* have crippling Yellow Fever, so it's like-- it's WORK, do you understand? It's WORK to find a bunch of blog-bait pictures of Asian girls.
anyway, what's new? what do you wanna talk about? how about some vidya?
I started playing Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon for the DS. It's really easy. i think it might be ranked the 2nd easiest Fire Emblem game. I'm very okay with that. It's a remake offff... i think the original. Um... it's aight. for some reason, the story isn't quite as compelling to me as the GBA games, or even uh, Three Houses. i dont care im so tired
what uh else...zzzzzzz... Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance kinda sucks. The double-castle thing makes it so boring lol. and i was actually enjoying it up until then but now it's like, the map suddenly got twice as big, and it's just EXHAUSTING trying to find where to go. it doesn't feel like exploration as much as... something else. What would you call exploration that's not-at-all-fun? whatvever, im only half awake im sorry.
what else? Portrait of Ruin though, is fun so far. 2 characters at once, Charlotte's .neat. if you hold up for 10 seconds, she does a sexy arms_behind_head pose, very important. rly though, the game's pretty cool. it even has SIDE QUESTS. also there'slmao there's like some enemy... ZACCHINO who tries to give Charlotte a rose and says "I LOVE YOOOOU!!" and doesnt attack, but if you're playing as Jonathan he just tries to kill you. And you know what? The "portrait worlds" you go to are way more interesting than "another fucking castle on top of the one you're in". I wish Harmony of Dissonance wasn't... bad. I try so hard to give older games a chance, but the difference in quality-- in all aspects--between HoD and Aria of Sorrow, also the on GBA? It's incredible.
The one thing that I do like about HoD is that you can get a Bible as a sub-weapon and it's so powerful you can just clobber bosses in a minute without even trying. Now that's based.
Uhhh... Order of Ecclesia will be the last handheld Castlevania, aaaaand. i played a bit of it. It's good so far, i dig it. that's all.
UFC? i fell asleep early so i missed some of the fights, but when i woke up i took a little caffeine so i could make sure to see Alex Pereira clobber Khalil Rountree. Khalil did a lot better than people(not me)thought he would, so now everyone's(not me) overcorrecting and giving him way too much praise for his performance. that's another post, though, you're suffering enough.
anyway, a STORM actually IS coming for me, even though I'm not an asker, I am Ask. so lemme wraaaap it up...
Waifu Library released another chapter of Mil-Sim Story, I'm a still a *few* behind, but I'm catching up! I think I'll read like two after I'm done here. Why do I feel... i think i didnt get enough sleep or somethinglmao the story of my life is waking up feeling less-refreshed than i did when i went to sleep.
im okay.
kkk let's part ways. i'll talk to you later. pls take care of yourself, and have a comfy day. God bless, fren
Hey fren, hope you're well today.
I'm just gonna. Ramble a bit, idk. [complaining about life redacted: I'm alive, thank God]
What else? I got a copy of Cash Grab lmao. The writer's this guy, CECIL, who's a fren of the ComicsGate guys. And he's funny. And he had them on sale, so I'm like ye I will purchase your comic funny man. You know, the character's a fat ugly bastard. Just like Cecil irl. No, he's not ugly--he's Italian, that's impossible. But he is OLD, he's 50. And God bless him, he's dating a 26 year old lmao
Those OLD FUCKS, the "ComicsGate Kings" are some of the most entertaining streamers I've ever listened to. Maybe it's just because I like them. When you like someone, you think they're funnier.
Do you like me?
I wish I was playing Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom rn, but Amazon didn't have preorders for some reason. And I don't feel like... going to get it. That's like, a thing of the past. But so are physical copies, which is what I want anyway. There's no WaaaAAAAAAAAaaaay I'm going to get A DIGITAL COPY, THAT'D BE CRAZY. What will I do when Nintendo dies, which will SURELY happen before ME, and I can no-longer redownload my beloved copy of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom? Exactly.
No, I don't care. I am going to wait to order a physical one, but I've got enough sheeeeit to playlmao.
I have to try out the DS Fire Emblemmmmm, I have some Phoneix Wriiiiight games to playyyyy, I wanna try out Professor Laaaaayton, I've got 2 more Castlevaaaaanias to beat,
you know, the DS is prettyyyy cool. Now I've got the MM nu3DSXL, a DSi, a DS Lite, aaaand a DS my high school gf gave me. I never even played it back then, ever. Not even once. It just sat in my dresser for years upon years.
Now I'm playing with it all the time. Even more than the others, because it's got the GBA slot and I got a GBA cart. Life is funny.
[redacted]
im so tired
The Sopranos has been. pretty good. mostly good. It's entertaining. Really though, Tony's family life is... it's well done, but uh, I don't care. I really just want to see gangsters doing business and killing each other, I don't really need to see Meadow dating a half-black jewish boy and Tony disapproving of it--only because he's half-black of course, because Tony doesn't care about religion at all--or AJ being kicked out of school for being retarded. That's not super interesting. It's done well enough, though.
The charaaaaaacters are all so great. You know who I like? Bobby, the gigantic fatso who takes care of Uncle Junior. He's my favorite. I love him, I don't like him. He eats so much shit for his weight(pun intended) and he just copes and does his job. He's cool and funny and lovable.
Who else do I like... Furio. I love Furio. He's cool and he has a cool nose.
ARTIEEEEEE the cook I LOVE HIM, i just love everyone. They're all just great.
It's such peak redditry to dismiss them all as "sociopaths" and "bad people". They're humans. They're kiiiiiiinda bad people, sooooooometimes. But that's enough Sopranoposting rn.
i cant remember if i wanted to... say anything else... uhhh... Longbottom later i think.
You and me
A madman and his Angel to their final trip
Drifting in a sullen sea, identities
Divided by a tiny line we cannot see
But I can feel your presence right here
Hey fren, hope you're well today. It's a variety post today. Right?
Music first?
Identities is a song from the album Stream of Consciousness, I'm in a big Vision Divine mood atm
I used to listen to so much random Italian metal when I was younger, but nothing stuck with me much as Vision Divine. At the time I started listening to them... let's see... the singer of Stream of Consciousness, Michele Luppi, was already gone, and replaced with the original singer, Fabio Leone, who is NOW the lead singer of Angra, a Brazilian band.
Michele Luppi was my favorite. I actually haven't heard enough of the new guy, Ivan Giannini, to compare, but I definitely already like Ivan. And also, more than Fabio.
Fabio's a good singer, he just has a uh... idk, maybe I just didn't like his songs as much. Although, Violet Loneliness was good enough for my comfy bedtime playlist back then.
Yeah, you know what? It's not Fabio's fault, it's the songs.
You know, my girlfriend in high school made fun of him, and by extension me, because of the way he uh, "holds" notes, you know? Idk the technical term for it, but instead of Aaaaaaaaaaaaa, he tends to AAaaAaAaaAaAAaAaa, you know? That BITCH actually made fun of-- lmao she was such a little fuck.
Michele Luppi doesn't do that though, I should have made her listen to one of his songs instead.
Luppi's albums were the ones I was most familiar with anyway: Stream of Consciousness, The Perfect Machine, the 25th Hour. Especially The Perfect Machine, thaaaaaaaat was a masterpiece. The story of humans discovering immortality but it leaves them unable or unwilling to reproduce. God goes off on them in "God is Dead"-- way cooler and less-gay than another song called "God is Dead"
So he tells the people He's out.
In "Now That You've Gone", the people realize that even with "perfect lives" they're not happy without God.
Life faded away
To a black pitch nightmare
The World... Rotting inside...
Got no feelings anymore to share with others
We don't even have the need to make new children
In the end, after 4,000 years of stagnation, it's reported that a new baby was born somewhere, signaling God's returned and is answering their prayers again.
I love it, it's a great album, a great story, and a great message.
Is it unfair to suggest that even given immortality, humans can't be happy without God?
I know it sounds like it, but it's not.
How many times, in regards to Heaven, do we have to hear some variation of "Living forever would be so boooooooooring" either about what you'd be doing in Heaven, or just in general
No I think on the contrary, living forever could only not be boring with God, doing God things. Throwing wrenches in our plans, forcing us to cope and seethe and problem-solve. And loving us, and being loved by us. Any interpretation of Heaven relies on God, it's not about what we want, it's about what He wants, (And That's A Good Thing) and being in His prescence for it.
im so tired it's unreal.
What uh... what picture am I using here... oh, Virgin and Chad. I just wanted to note Chad Virgin is basically Rei Jeong from HP Longbottom, but Rei's not flat. I have nothing else to say about the image. Obviously Chad Virgin's better.
Any more music talk? No, DS talk
INDEED i got a DS Lite, and I'm really impressed with it. So then I got a DSi, which is in better shape than the Lite, so I've been plaaaaaaayan it moar. Castlevania, ... Dawn of Sorrow. Wh.. ....you play as Soma Cruz, it's the sequel to thezzzzzzzzzAria of Sorrow
i just reminded myself of the Netflix-Castlevania series written by a [be nice] and I put myself in a bad mood. i do that too often.
"Church Bad" is lazy writing, sorry. Sure, it OFFENDS me too, but that's unrelated, you're just a bad writer. Whatever the [be nice]'s name is, I don't even know. Netflixvania, AmazonLOTR, all this ugly trash I'm gonnalmao i, im sorry im being negative now. anyway unlike Netflixvania, Dawn of Sorrow's preeeetty cool.
im a little out of it sry sry.
pls just take care.
havea cozy day. God bless, fren
Why you let the things you did get so out of hand
(Jesus Christ Superstar is way too kind to Judas, but its saving grace is that it does portray Christ's divinity)
HellOOOOOOO friendo, I hope you're well today. Pic unrelated as always, serving only to get you into the blog post.
It's a very exciting blog post, though. Only a few topics. Uhhh...
Last time, when I was talking about Asian UFC fighters, I FORGOT that I wanted to get more into short fighters in general. Being a man of average height is like being a mutt. You're pulled in either direction. I can either side with lanklets or dwarves. You know who was a dwarf? Gimli. Did you know that in the books, Gimli actually got more kills than Legolas? That's right, the movies lied. Lanklet propaganda. The dwarf took the W over the elf.
Thoughts?
All of my favorite fighters are short. Why? Because they're the best fighters. Here, consider this:
Who's widely regarded as the GOAT of MMA, besides Jon Jones(roid cheat) and GSP (Canadian)?
Das rite, Mighty Mouse, at what, 5'3? That's quite a mighty mouse.(Just retired, good for him)
Now, who actually IS the greatest of all time? DAS RITE, Alexander Volkanovski, at 5'5. Still short.
Basically every Muay Thai fighter? Short.
Saenchai? 5'5. Unbeaten for TEN YEARS, with ONE draw against...
Das rite, an Italian. The only thing more powerful than being short. Being short keeps you grounded, but all ground is Italy.
It all makes perfect sense.
No, that's all. Height's a uh, thing. Short guys have to work harder than other people, and I feel for them. Because for every Volkanovski, there's a thousand George Costanzas.
And it's not like I'm 6'6, so I DON'T LIKE LANKLETS, FILTHY LANKLETS calling ME short, so how can I then turn around and disrespect another man's height? Guys are out there having their fucking legs broken to get an extra few inches, it's ruff.
Where is this going now? Why do men break their legs? They don't do it to improve their fighting, they do it to peacock for women. Is this a Dating Post? Eh... no. I really just wanted to praise short fighters without exclusively glazing Asian ones like last time.
That said, Tatsuro's my boy and he's going to be the Flyweight Champion, believe it.
Let's just move on... uhhh
Oh, speaking of SHORT, the "Ever-Shrinking God". As I was falling asleep last night, I remembered another criticism of it, as if it needed another one. What was it though... oh lmao. The idea that God is only responsible for things we don't understand. It's a complete misunderstanding of what-- idk, probably *any* religion's idea of a god, but I can only speak to Christianity. Science isn't like, a scoreboard and every time we discover literally-anything that was previously not understood, we add one point to Science and deduct one point from God. Everything we don't know, AND everything we DO know, comes from God. That's uh, the point. He's the one who makes it all work. Sounds like cheating, doesn't it? But it's not a game, truth is necessarily unassailable. "Nooooo that's unfalsifiable!" has never been a good argument against God. "Well well well, isn't it sooo convenient that I can't prove you wrong!" Yes it is convenient, I'm sorry. That's all, not complicated. This "Ever-shrinking" concept seems to suggest at the end of the Universe, a final stone will be unturned, and there will be no bearded wizard underneath it, and at long last the dastardly theists will be all out of places to hide. That's not how Christians believe God to be. Endlessly repeating "magic skydaddy" might had some kind of uh... self-gaslighting effect that made Atheists believe that Christians believe that God is literally just Dumbledore in outer space. Maybe I'm putting more thought into it than they are. Probably, I don't remember.
Atheism, particularly anti-Christianity/Antitheism is full of all these little... memes. This, the "Problem of Evil", this stuff used to be like "WHOAAAAA!" to me. I couldn't see the flaws in them, I guess maybe because I just didn't want to. Or uh, you just don't BOTHER to. There's a certain amount of energy you're willing to spend critiquing your own belief system, the things you want to believe. I wanted to be an Atheist, so I let a lot slide. Christians let things slide, everyone lets things slide. But anyway, this issss just a bad argument soooo DAS ALL.
What's next...
The debate? I'm so tired. The debate sucked. Trump did FINE, he did AVERAGE, but Kamala's voice is agony. I said this last night, Hilary Clinton's voice did not HURT me the way hers does.
Uh, faaaacts? The moderators desperately tried to #factcheck a bit of Trump's hyperbole, but it didn't go great for them. Idr which point it was, but Trump actually Uno-reverse factchecked that gay bugman moderator and that was pretty funny.
Kamala's plan to save America by giving everyone a bunch of money was interesting.
It's a uh. Probably a bad sign for the health of a nation when one of the most important issues is "cumming inside pussies without having babies" Don't get me wrong, I love lmao im sorry i have to commit now, I love cumming inside pussies, and I HATE responsibility, just like a proper modern penis-haver. Modeling a country after my youth isn't a good idea, I think.
It's just not good for the mental health, or spirit of a nation. The abortion experiment, the feminism experiment, the sexual "liberation" experiment, they've all been tried for many decades. Before you or I were born. According to Science, the thing that everyone loves, women--and men--are not happier than they were in decades past. Just look around you, you don't need a study to confirm it(though they do). So we know that the experiments of abortion, feminism, and sexual "liberation" have failed. If people care about "mental health" as much as they claim to, it's probably a good idea to, as our dear Vice President said, move foward, not backward.
The "question" about Trump mocking Kamala for pretending to be black or White depending on the situation wassssssssssssssss. You know. Not really a question as much as a waste of troubling waste of time.
What were some oth... I should have written this fresh, I'm sorry. It was such a misery I've forgotten half of it.
Trump's right about the border, obviously. Uh, his take on diplomacy is just, great. Like it's just great. Imagine having a President who other world leaders will talk to, even "adversarial" ones. It's supposed to be a bad thing that Trump is capable of having a rapport with Putin and Xi and Kim because "nooooooo they're da bad guys". But lmao
Trump be like "If elected, before I'm even in office, I will end the war in Ukraine with a phone call."
Kamala be like "I solemnly swear to send 6 million American boys to fight Russia just in time for winter."
She really does believe in post-birth abortion.
Uhh, what else? Israel? Let's not talk about it.
lol I KNOW that when Trump said "If she's elected, Israel will not exist in a year" there were some "now wait a sec..."s
Let's not talk about it.
Oh, the Trump Tax? lmao. It was pretty funny that the current administration kept Trump's tariffs, I didn't know that. Uhh, idk, assuming that Kamala was right, and that's really being extremely generous, it'd be what... a tax on imported goods? I have to doubt Kamala's "world's greatest economists'" estimation of a +$4000/year expense per household. I just have no choice. I mean, we're working blind here from the get-go. It's essentially a make-believe number, but let's try to figure it out anyway. In order to reach that number, assuming this "Trump Tax" is under 100%, we(you and I) need to be spending $4000 a year on foreign goods. Foreign food, maybe? Idk, remember, this is all just Kamala saying "trust me bro". We import a lot of... vegetables from Mexico, some from Canada...
You know what? I'm boring myself now, I can only imagine what I'm doing to you. So let's look at this another way:
Russia is the world's largest producer of wheatlmao. We can have a president who wants to go to war with the world's largest producer of wheat, or we can have a president who is on friendly terms with the leader of Russia. There, I solved whateverthefuck the mysterious "Trump Tax" was. And since the moderators didn't try to #factcheck Trump when he #factchecked Kamala, I'll just assume it's a nothingburger anyway.
Healthcare?
Public healthcare doesn't work in America. And no amount of money being pumped into it will make it work. This probably deserves its own post
ENVIIIIIIIRONMENTTTTTTTTT? same issue. Kamala bragging about "investing"(wasting) 1 trillion dollars in -- uh... ??? what was it again? idr, I just know the environment's still in grave danger--an "existential threat" despite 1 trillion dollars, so that's no good. Time to move foward.
That's all I can bear to remember rn. What a waste of time.
Next time let's talk about something fun.
I'll ttyl, pls take care. God bless, fren
Hey friend, i hope you're feeling well today.
wanna help me clear some of my notes again?
let's see what I wrote...
"The Vyzpzz are highly-intelligent sissies" LOL
Okay, that's an Ethan Van Sciver quote. He did a preview of the new Cyberfrog book a few days ago. It looks amazing. But some people don't like that the Vyzpzz are basically SJWs and Ethan was reading their dialogue in an obnoxious gay voice. Because it makes them less COOL. Right? But uh... good. They're villains. Idk why people want villains to be COOL or SEXY. These are alien murder hornets that invaded Earth and are turning people into blood honey. They're assholes. Why would the words that come out of their mouths *not* be spoken with obnoxious faggy voices?
Maybe I'm biased because I love EVS's "gay voice". It's so, excuse my language, FUCKING funny that I can't stand it. (Also it wasn't even serious, they're alien wasps, they don't talk like humans, they Bzzzzz. But it really bothered some people!)
But no, you tell me. I'm going to go grab my copy of Rekt Planet, and I'll give you some of the Vyzpzz dialogue. You tell ME if they sound "COOL" or "BADASS". 1 sec... ok, here's some quotes from them when they're fighting Cyberfrog:
"These are the consequences of your actions!!"
"I'm sorry that happened to you."
"Still waiting for any accountability from you."
"Now is not the time to defend yourself. Now is not the time for you to do anything. Except reflect and think about how you can...
Be better."
Are those COOL, RAD, AWESOME, BADASS, SEXY villains?
No, they're vile, nasty left-feminist twitter warriors.
And That's A Good Thing. I saw a guy say that it's too "on the nose" and somehow "lacking nuance", but that's retarded. I'm not the only one--in fact, I will say that 100% of people who read Cyberfrog 2 went nuts when the Vyzpzz started talking like that. It was *PERFECT*, and you know why it's perfect? Because it's REAL. That's how those insufferable fucking --sry. That's how those People of Twitter actually talk, which is why it was so effective. Nuance? They're fucking LITERAL INSECTS.
Everyone wants the Devil to be a handsome brooding misunderstood genius, but you know what? Besides being untrue, that's BORING. We've seen enough of it already. Before I was even born, and for my entire life, pop culture has been simping for evil. It's old. *yawn* I think it's way cooler to have swarms of giant killer wasps that talk like 20 year old Communist assholes. THAT'S realistic.
I've gone on a bit long, sry. What else did I write in my notes?...
"Young Earth Creationism causes less harm to society than Atheism" True, but that probably deserves a full article when I'm feeling better. What else...
"Gilbert Burn's shirt". lol on Saturday Gilbert Burns was walking around in some cool Japanese shirt with Jesus Christ holding a sword or something, I didn't get a good look. It was a coooool freaking shirt. Sad Burns lost, happy that he lolst to a man who crossed himself though.
"If Rong Zhu was White, the fight wouldn't have been stopped" Ah, Zhu took an elbow that made his eye swell shut, and I couldn't help but feel that if he was White it wouldn't have been as bad. And I feel that because it's uh, true. You know, our eyes are different. That swelling would not have completely-covered a White or Black man's eye. It wasn't insignificant at all, but *that level* of swelling, we've seen other fighters be allowed to continue. That sucks. Asianbros, not like this. There's so few of them in the UFC, they're all in ONE or --the other's named, i cant remember(edit:Rizin)-- or SOME might argue Azn men just aren't made for combat sports. And it's like, yeeeahthey're often SHORT, but in 2024, when they're putting estrogen in our water that we then have to pour into our plastic bottles, it's not really hard to compete with other men in terms of testosterone. I mean, there's what, zero Indian men ranked in the UFC. Can they not fight either? I'm not denying GENETICS I'm just saying if I lmao if I was a Japanese man, I'd probably be comfier fighting for Rizin. I'm sure not everyone is just ITCHING to come fight in Las Vegas when they can already fight in their own backyards for enough money.
Anyway, Tatsuro Taira's fighting the #1 guy Brandon Royval next month. If he wins, maaaaan, Pantoja's next. We could have our first Japanese champion. That'd be crazy. Pantoja's 9 years older than Tatsuro. At flyweight, that might as well be 20 years. Well, it'll be entertaining no matter what.
Gone on too long again, sry. What other notes do we have...
"Harry calling Cho a succulent Chinese meal" Okay, I can cross that one off, I already did that...
"Dad, I can knock her up any time you say!" another EVS quote lmao his son was offering to give him a grandchild. Isn't that sweet? I love family. Life is beautiful, isn't it?
That reminds me, Ana "That Star Wars Girl" is having her baby in December, and that's great. I never followed her but she's frens with all of the Comicsgate guys, so I've been tuning in to her streams a bit, and she's funny. And she's growing a person inside her. Isn't that something?
There's a uhh... idk if I want to get into this. I think the whole "Alien chestburster" meme is very gay. It's like just gay and evil to, idk, COUNTERSIGNAL pregnancy. Women go through hell, but they do it for such a beautiful reason. Let's just move on or it'll never end.
"Don't call him gay, he's a commercial real estate broker" quote from my dad. That's funny, that's all. i will not explain it.
"Black metal band playing shitty music in front of a beautiful castle" uh. hm.... Zzzzzzz
"'The ever-shrinking god' argument from Atheists is false because new questions necessarily arise from new answers" Not complicated, not deep, it was just never a good argument.
"I love writing something, forgetting about it, and reading it again months later and cracking myself up" I'm so funny. HA-HAAAAAAA! Whatt else...
"AM radio" i guess i wanted to look into that "thing" going on with AM radios in cars, but i never did. i dont care, let's keep going...
"the host from The Atheist Experience dressed in a leather bdsm outfit speaking at a Satanist convention" i love this, but i keep-- im torn because as hilarious as it is, i rly dont want to be mean to the guy, i used to WATCH HIS SHOW every week, it's just so *perfect*, the uh... downward trajectory. But you know, it's not right to uh................. it wouldn't be right.
"The joker isnt" i was probably going to say the joker isn't cool, and that probably had something to do with the Vyzpzz. Okay that's enough.
that's it for now. we did good, right?
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz well, i hope you're having a good and a warm day. pls take care of yourself. God bless, fren.

Hey fren, hope you're well today.
Today was Ethan Van Sciver's 50th birthday. Imagine being 50.
Where does the time go?
This video is 7 years old, isn't that crazy? What was even going on 7 years ago? I can barely remember last year. How'd you like to go back 7 years? Idk if I would actually, that's kinda when my life started going downhill after leaving my hometown lmao
Day after day.
Anyway that's the singer of Vision Divine, Ivan Giannini. 7 years ago he wasn't the singer of Vision Divine. I'd never have known about him if he hadn't joined them, I'm glad he did.
"this anime must be seen" What a bold statement, Ivan. I believe you.
I haven't been watching anything, I've just been playing vidya to distract myself from the constant pain that I'm in.
Muh "refurbished"(whatever that means) DS Lite came in today. It's in not-so-bad shape when I consider that it's what, at least 13 years old?
No thumbpad is RUFF, but I like it overall, it's. Small. I like small things.
I guess that anime is about a small girl, idk. Ivan said it must be seen, and I trust him because I like his singing.
I bet it has a sad ending though. Miyazaki, huh? What happened in Spirited Away, again... Dragonboy did say they'd meet again, right? That's not just something you SAY for fun, he surely meant it. Right? Of course he'd find... what's her name again? I can... didn't the witch call her Sen? But her name was... Chihiro I think. I'm not going to look it up, I'm gettigg a headache. Wow, look at the time. The clock's always ticking.
Uhh... that's all. ill ttyl. pls take care of yourself and. have a comfortable day. God bless, fren.

I know you are unaware
But I'll tell you I'm afraid
I'm Afraid is another song from Genius: A Rock Opera. Is it related to this post at all? No, not really. I just remembered it because I randomly picked out this screenshot of Prince of Qin.
Actually lol watch me make it related.
The lyrics are choice Inglese, complete ASL. In the song, in the narration after the song. But you know what's nice about them? You understand the intention of every last line. Even look at Fu Su's dialogue in that screenshot. A little off, but for both I'm Afraid and Prince of Qin, I don't have to PONDER about the words for half an hour to figure out different things they could have possibly meant. That's called GOOD WRITING.
DUSTBORN on the other hand, is SHEEEEEEEIT. It's written like roight propah SHIT. And what do we do with sheeeit 'round these parts? We rewrite it.
Man, I'm listening to I'm Afraid rn, I hope you are too, it's such a good song. Daniel Gildenlow's voice is so beautiful. Idk any of the other singers, but they're good too. Especially the King--
King McChaos btw LOL. What a name.
In this song we also hear MAINDREAM, who I guess is like the leader of the uh... Dream Senate? And controls their military. Or, as Dustborn would call them, their Powerful Military Police.
Anyway, Maindream take-- talk about I'M AFRAID, there's a thunderstorm and I don't want to lose this friggin post.
Let's just get on with it already...
Here's the trash we'll be rewriting again. Let's look at it together, pls open it on the side and we'll dive right in.
Now if we assume the attempt was *aimed at John*, amd Jackie was killed as a result of it, my original rewrite doesn't work-- she wasn't assassinated, and even if *legally* she would have still been considered murdered, that's not the *message* we're trying to convey, so that's not what we're going to write.
The attempt was solely against John, *not* Jackie, or at least *primarily* John, with disregard for Jackie's life. And we're presuming that because it makes my life easier-- I'm surely putting more thought into this than the original writers.
So, with this new interpretation, what's wrong with the original script?
"after an assassination attempt killed his wife"
The emphasis here is placed not on the assassination attempt, but on it killing his wife. What, if the attempt *hadn't* killed his wife, he wouldn't have founded Justice? She was the straw that broke the camel's back?
More than any other interpretation I can think of, this actually makes the original script closest to not sucking. But does it not suck? No, it does still suck, and explaining John's spiral into a dark place isn't what we want to do with our limited space here *not matter what*.
So what's the message we want to convey? John founded Justice after an attempt on his life failed, and only killed his wife. The *entirety of the event* is the cause of him finding Justice, not *just* that it killed his wife. (That would need another new rewrite)
So let's do it then... We'll use my first rewrite as a base, since it's immediately superior.
"Justice is a federal police force established in 1964 by President John F. Kennedy following an assassination attempt against him which resulted in the death of his wife, Jackie.
After "The Broadcast" of (date), Justice placed the American Republic under martial law which has continued to this day."
There. That's it. This change makes it clearer that the founding of Justice wasn't after "an assassination attempt killed his wife" (with all the different ways there are to interpret that), but that the founding of Justice was after *an assassination attempt*, which happened to fail, and instead kill his wife. The focus can't be on the wife's death, it'd muddy how we're saying Justice was created.
Frankly, we miiiiiight even be able to take out the mention of Jackie's death entirely. How relevant is it? She's the President's wife, of course she's important, but WHY are we talking about JACKIE in the introduction to JUSTICE? How important to the story are you going to make John and Jackie? Are we ever even going to hear about them again?
No? In that case, scrap Jackie's death entirely. No, she *didn't* die, John just founded Justice after an assassination attempt on him. That's the ONLY motivation he'd need. His wife didn't have to die for him to have cause to create this new police force, and you're not even trying to tell me that her death really affected him so deeply that he became a dictator or created a baby-blue and white uniformed Natzee police force.
Unless you ARE trying to tell me that. But you know what? I've given this trash too much of my time.
That's all, fuck this writer. This was probably written by an entire team of "writers", actually. Imagine that team.
Anything else? Uhhh... idk, HP Longbottom later, maybe. I'll try. Imagine if I cared about my own writing as much as the slop in the video game I'm never even going to play.
Still, this was a fun post, right? It was good for me. Was it good for you?
I wonder what Genius song I can somehow post about next time? Only time will tell. Oh maaaan, I'm reading some of the story, it's just got so much HEART. There's a spirit to it that Dustborn-level writers will never get. And it's one that eludes me, too.
It's the thing that makes words beautiful.
Aiiiight, that's enough out of me for now. Ttyl. Pls take care and have a comfy day. God bless, fren.
Why are devices not designed to be held by humans?
I got a Galaxy tablet because they were on sale, and I'm always looking for an easier way to not-actually-draw-anything and it's neato, but holding on to it is like, insane.
How can something that weighs 0lbs and is the size of a notebook be so cumbersome? Because the entire thing is a screen that does things when your fingers touch it, that's why. So it might as well weigh a hundred pounds.
And it's so SLIPPERY too, why WHY IS EVERYTHING SO SLIPPERY? PHONES, TOO, but now I've got this BIG slippery thing(heh)
I think I'd have a harder time holding on to a bar of soap in a prison shower while larger men are actively trying to take it from me.
Anyway, i just downloaded the best-rated free drawing app and doodled this masterpiece real to start getting a feeeeel of things.
I was going to draw another character, but for some FOR SOME REASON, none of the selection tools were working in the app I was using-- uh... Sketchbook. Which is a shame because I was really liking it. But uhhh. Selection tools are pretty important.
So this is all I didlol. I briefly checked out "PENUP", this preinstalled one that... seeeems to be ok, but I have to get uuuused to it now, when I was just staaaarting to like Sketchbook, it's more invoooolved than Sketchbook.
Sketchbook is really neat. I wi-- OK, NOW it's working. Now I'm the asshole. But I PROMISE you, originally it wasn't.
I'm glad. PENUP seems fine, but I like uh, simplicity. I'm not an artist lmao, as you can see. I basically just want MS Paint, aaand uh... layers are nice, too. And Sketchbook has layers. So all good.
Iiii... you know, this isn't re-- I'm not saying I'm good, but I promise I'm better than this, it's jUST A DOODLE. I uh... lmao
Anyway, I'm going to try to draw more. But also uh, learn to draw better, not just like, retarded ugly shit that I've been doing my entire life. I WAS LEARNING before I moved and got sick. I was subbed tooo... Proko, aaand... that art mommy i cant remember who says to never use white backgrounds(edit: something-brak?), which i used here beecause I just wanted to make a quick shitty test doodle i promise.
I can draw some mean nude figures. dont ask me to draw clothes. or faces in profile. you know what? no faces, period. or hands. or uh, anything at all really.
Anyway i like this tablet, i need to getttt used to it. Sketchbook has a "your big man hands will not register accidental lines" modes, so that's cool. uhhh... you think this was just a retard-buy and im not actually going to draw more? hmm. well I'll show you! I'm gonna live out my elementary school dreams and GIT GUD at art, you'll see! i've got nothing better to do rn, i can barely do anything. doctor visit was pretty good today, in 3 months they're goingg go camera down muh throat if I'm not feeling better. i had that done to me as a kid, it wasn't that bad. uh. i just want to feel better, that's all.
Anything else? speaking of retard buys, i got Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince on switch because it was like the last ooooone. aaaaaaaaand, im enjoying 1 so muuuuuuuuuch, i figured i better just get this because, you know, the world is going to end soon anyway and it wont be possible to order things from amazon for a while after the Imperial Russo-Chinese Army conquers us, despite the best efforts of our trans drone operators saying "that's such a gemini thing"
i dont care. it doesnt matter
Since I've been writing so much of the stupid HP Longbottom story, that rly good song from The Evil Within popped in my head-- Long Way Down
suuuuuuuch a good song. Good game, too. Not great, but maybe really good. A lot done right. I don't like gore, at all, but it had a solid amount of psychological & ghostgirl horror too, the two most important kinds. It was an experience.
I didn't play much of 2, my PC at the time couldn't handle it well, and idk if it can now, but I can't be bothered to download a howevermanygig game when I'm perfectly content with classic game and anime girl games under 10gigs. actuallyryza2and3arealotmorebutillcrossthatbridge
uhhh... that's it, right? im so tired. i think my head hurts.
oh uhtrhftgh lets see... wizardwaifubro has ch3 of Mil-Sim Story so that'll be nice. and lesserwordbro posted a bunchofstuff ill seelater
im gonna go, i dont feel great. i feel like uh, this girl lmao i have a headache a bit, and my stomach, as always, hurts, so imgonna gooooooooo aaaand... ill ttyl, right?
pls take care and have a comfortable day. pls pray for me if you want.
God bless,fren
We just can't
Change the event
I'm so sorry my friend
But no, we can't change your fate
Hey friend, I hope you're feeling well today. I hope I can focus on writing this, I'm actually listening to the song Save Me From My Destiny.
It's from a rock opera about a guy trapped in the world of dreams. The song's about a doll who's doomed to be destroyed-- she's going to be used for a dream, like everyone and everything else.
The girl's voice is beautiful. So is the main character-- I don't remember the singer who plays him. But his uh... I forgot what they're called, but the guy who's in charge of his dreams is voiced by Daniel Gildenlow from Pain of Salvation. He's got an amazing voice, it was my favorite band in high school.
I wanted to uhh... before I forget, let me give you a POKéUPDATE, that's really important.
I used mGBA to trade with myself a little LOL. So I don't know for sure, but this might be the first time I've ever had an Alakazam or a Gengar. That feels weird, like SURELY I must have had them before somehow, right? But I legitimately don't remember any trades I made with any friends. I only knew a fewww people who had a link cable. One was--oh, my friend STEVEN. He wassss... a good guy. He looked out for me when I was young. I always felt cool because I got to hang out with the older kids. We lost touch before high school though. I loved going over to his house, he had anotherrr friend who was a little older than him, and I thought he was the coolest guy in the world. I remember we were playing Ocarina of Time at that guy's house, and he noticed I was staring at Saria a little too long and he 100% correctly said "You've got a crush on her." I denied it, and he didn't press me even though he knew. How could he blame me anyway, Saria is perfect.
Uh... Pokemon? Was that what I wa-- oh, I was going to like, title this post "SOMAmon" or something, and talk about people's struggle to save their Pokemon from dying. I wrote about that in HP Longbottom earlier lol.
I understand the sentiment. Like if I had a very easy choice of 2 buttons to press, 1 of them just made a copy of my Pokemon to a new machine, while the other one "ackshually" MOVED *them*, not just a perfect copy of them. Whatever that means for data.
Obviously we all want the original.
I think Pokemon's a great little ... example of the issue that the great game SOMA tackles: copying yourself vs moving yourself. And others, too.
In SOMA, people's brains are copied and pasted into robots and servers for the preservation of Humanity(kinda, but long story). It's a totally seamless experience for the copy, they had no idea it happened. But the person who was copied still is going to die. Like a Pokemon in a Gen 1 or 2 cartridge when the battery dies, unless they're somehow moved to a new cart or a PC. And even then, we have to face the question of "lol wat, this is just data."
Even if you want to tell me that "someday, totally" human brains will be copyable to create sentient mind-clones of us, you cannot tell me that my Gengar has feelings.
And if my Gengar doesn't have feelings, what's the real difference between me having an "original" that's "kept alive" by a Gameboy cartridge, or a convenient copy of him on a PC? No, first of all, he's a GHOST Pokemon anyway. Okay? He's not alive by definition. And I don't believe we can copy SOULS, which suggests to me that no-matter what, my Gengar willmao forget it, I don't know *or* really care. I'm not a person who cares about preserving Pokemon, I don't know how someone ends up like that, but I thank God it didn't happen to me. That's got to be exhausting, life is already full of people dying on you. Everyone we love is going to die, and we won't get to see them for maybe many years. Just copy the Pokemon. And hey, copy the brain too? Well? That's another question for another day. Ikinda wasted a SOMApost on Pokemon.
I'm a little out of it. I have a ton of problems with my stomach lol, that's all. And it's drastically been screwing up my quality of life, and it's really hard coping with it. So uh, save *me* from my destiny. I'm -- whatever. I'm fffffff. I'll be fine. I don't know.
Hey, I got a Gengar though. AND an Alakazam. Isn't that neat? I made a backup of the saves they're on, since they're not humans, they're Pokemon.
I'll ttyl, I forgot to get a random question, so we'll do a special one next time or something. Thaaat's all. REMEMBER TO WATCH UFC TODAY! Yandex is a really good search engine. Picks? idk, I don't really care. I want Li Jingliang to win, but idk if he can. Gamrot v Hooker, I like them both but I think GAMER GAMROT, uhhh Steve Erceg the most Italian man in the world is going to brutalize Kara-France, and because the UFC isn't an actual sport organization, it's sports-entertainment, Israel "Dog Rapist" Adesanya, who had servants growing up, is going to win in spectacular fashion over the evil yt pig-fit Porky Pig piggy wiggy pink skin colonizer Dricus Du Plessis. You can just feel it lmao the UFC is pushing him SO HARD in all the promos. They'll get their return on investment. And because Izzy is a "child of the Earth", not an African like Dricus, the UFC will never have to waste money going to Africa after all :')
OH, uh, Wizardbro, WizardPerspective started a new story on his other site. It's very comfy and cute. Hopefully he keeps writing more of it, he's not like me, a cowardly faggot who's scared of being genuine.
KK that's enough outta me.
Pls take care of yourself, aaaand. have a warm day. God bless, friend.
just killed a gnat against my monitor so im really happy now. gave me a bit of a second wind.
hey fren, i hope you're well today.
how about a ... you know what? Something has to change for me to continue updating my website. It's way too freaking tiring, the way I'm doing things now.
[a paragraph complaining about my method of updating my site]
God save me, I'm such a wreck.
sorry, what do you want to ta-- uh... how about a random question? let's see...
"If you could have dinner with any three fictional characters, who would you choose and why?"
hmm. that's a good question. Before we answer it, how about a POKéUPDATE??
I beat Erika, who is of course arguably Best Girl. Those Bellsprouts and Weepingfucks are BRUTAL with their freaking WRAP! Wtf, I never remembered having such desperate fights, they were giving my Charmeleon the business. Ember kinda sucks, so there's that. Dig works deceeeent, because they're uh... Poison types, right?... hm. anyway I beat her. Next is... who, Sabrina? Other Best Girl. It's one or the other. It can't be Misty. They actually DOWNGRADED Misty from Red/Blue. Get rid of her bikini to give her her anime clothes, fine. But now she's not even showing armpit. Miserable.
They barely changed any other sprites. Only... Brock and Blue/Gary I thiiiink. Gary looks like a retard compared to his orginal-- his original "final fight" one, he's dressed in a cool jacket and he actually looks like he's aged from the beginning of the game. As if you guys have had a long journey and you've necessarily matured traveling all around the country beating the shit out of hundreds of other trainers. He really looks like a champion. In Yellow, he's the same as always, just posing differently. TERRIBLE.
Brock's change is funny. They just put his shirt and vest on him, whereas originally he was shirtless. The shirtless look was cool, but his anime clothes are pretty neato.
Okay, enough is enough, let's answer the question.
3 fictional characters to dine with? I'm not going to just pick the 3 characters from Fire Emblem Three Houses even though they immediately came to mind.
Oh MAAAAAAAAN, Three *Hopes* has been soOoooooOOOoooooO much fun to play.
They really freakin nailed it, making it so much like Three Houses. The upgrades to your characters are just constant and feeeel goooood, you do everything through a camp instead of just menuing, you can give characters "battalions" that can get rid of their weapon disadvantages or increase their advantages, you're not trapped on your mounts, so Pegasus or Wyvern riders can hop off, safely rpe an archer, and hop back on,
uhhhh... I've got a gril who's best at magic, but she also has a crest to wield a big fat magic hammer so I'm training her in that now too even though that's not her specialty.
It really makes you feeeeeeeel like you're playing a Fire Emblem game.
Bernie is best girl. Bernie's also the name of my financial advisor, who is not a cute shy girl with messy hair. Life is strange.
DC mentioned a data leak, but it doesn't really look so bad. Like most of it's already-leaked stuff, a lot of it's dupes, like Zzzzzzz whatever. I'm really unconcerned about anything at this point in life, but also uh... just keep an eye on your credit. Also I always think about the time my friend couldn't buy a new TV because his bank thought it was suspicious lmao and it makes me feel at least sometimes our beloved bankers are good for something, and that's keeping our money safe. Even from ourselves. There's no way my Guardian Anjew is going to let some faggot in Eastern Europe make a withdrawal from me.
Idk, do the credit bureaus have a process for victims of fraud to restore their credit? Let's see... okay, they do. Of course they do, I've just never had to use one, thank God.
Hmm... I guesssssss in a worst-case scenario, like if you're relentlessly being targeted for some reason instead of randomly eating shit, you could change your name or somethin-- YOOOO you can actually change your SSN? I never knew that. I love that. There's always a solution for every problem. That used to be my motto before I got sick and became a shell of a man lmao
You know, sometimes our government is preddy cool.
Enough. I'll let you go. 3 fictional characters to eat with? What a stupid question uhhhhh... idk, my own characters: Skeleton Sacramento, Benjamin Grueber, and Zhang Bang
TTYL. pls take care. aaand. have a. comforting day. God bless, fren
hey, i hope you're feeling well today.
anything you wanna... how about a random question...
If you could have any animal, real or mythical, as a pet, what would it be and why?
good question. Before we answer it, how about a POKéUPDATE?? Maybe that's even related.
uhhh... I clobbered Lt. Surge in Yellow. He only had a Raichu, which iirc is different than Red/Blue, I thought he uesd to have more. I don't remember the anime, but did he *only* have a Raichu in it? I guess. But-- ah, whatever.
Idk how to cope with Pikachu refusing to evolve. Raichu was so great, and won't Pikachu haaaave lower stats? idk, im not autistic enough to actually know anything about Pokemon stats, type effectiveness has always carried me. I don't want to remove Pikachu from the party, that'd be MEAN. So I'll just work around him... lightning beats water, but I have muh Bulbasaur now too... aaand... Flying? What else beats flying... Ice, which I'll never use... and Rock. I can... eh... I don't want to have a Rock type, I already have Char to DIG... hm. Maybe I'll... ah, whatever.
I wonder if muh rival ever evolves his Eevee. I hope so, so I can give him a taste of the rival treatment...
ohh that's cool, you decide how he evolves it by winning/losing certain battles against him. I'll end up with him having a Jolteon...
Fire's ...effeeeective against electric, but not super effective, right? i'd rather him have a Flareon so I could humiliate him with a Vaporeon.
ok ok whatever. uhhh.. eh.
Pokemon. is fun, I've been enjoying bouncing back and forth a bit between gen 1 and 2. I'd liiiiike to get into the newer ones, but -- for example, X's camera is like, disgusting. It's like SM64 bad. Maybe there's a way to ... ... use it better i uh........... hm. and you freaking ROLLERBLADE with the thumbstick, which would be cool if you had a CHOICE but YOU DONT have a choice andafrgogoijsroijgrrr
im just being pointlessly whiny, sorry lmao.
i think ill try to get into Pokemon X a bit more. i wish i hadnt missed out on like... all the others, but i never had a DS until the Majora remake. i missed like everything. what a tragedy. oh woe is me, I missed out on some games as a kid.
before we answer the random question, UFCCCCCCCCCCC THIS WEEKEND. Dricus Deuihefplefusesis vs Israel Adesanya. How exciting.
The entire card's full of good fights, so it's gonna be fun. I'll spare you my full picks, though.
I'll be rooting for Dricus since he's apparently a Christian, and also Izzy hates White people so fuck him, BUT
if Dricus lost, it'd make MMAGuru really upset, so that would be really funny. BUT... it'd also be funny for him to be happy, so whatever. Uhhhhhhh... idk
Dricus didn't beat Strickland. I watched him lose the fight and be given the belt anyway, so it's a little worrying that he'll be fighting Izzy. It'd be one thing if he clobbered outclassed Strickland the way Strickland did Izzy, but he didn't. He lost. Being as generous as possible: he *barely* won. So surely Izzy will be able to take advantage of Dricus's Captain Underpants style where he's barging forward like the local barge, right?
People forget man, Whitaker was BEATING Dricus until he got the takedown at the end of r1. Then sure, Dricus clobbered Rob and broke his will. He's SO strong, but the point is his defense isn't exactly great. Strickland made him look like a battered woman, you looked at him after their fight and your male instincts kicked in and you got mad at Strickland like how could he beat up a gir-- oh wait, that's the new middleweight champion, and he's a man?
BUT... idk, maybe he'll be able to pre-- i really don't know, actually. I was worried for Strickland every second of his fight with Izzy until the bell rang at the end, and he made Izzy miss around 90% of his shots.
And I don't know what the number was, but Dricus certainly did NOT make Strickland miss 90% of his shots on him.
Spooky stuff. Whatever happens, it'll be a great night of fights. I hope you'll watch with me!
Anywayyyyyy... I could go on forever about whatever, so let's just wr--
oh the RANDOM QUESTION? idk, are we going to end up in an ET situation where the government steals my pet to murder and dissect it? Hopefully not. A mythical creature... Oh, lemme get a fairy like Navi. She can live in my hat and nag me to get more work done, keep reminders for me, and teach me how to move large blocks and open doors by paying attention to what the Action Icon says
ok im gone. ill ttyl. pls take care of yourself and have aaaa. comforting day. God bless, fren
yes, i am reusing the Shi pic again. it's relevant!
hey fren, i hope you're well today.
What am i going to blog at you today about?...
Pokemon , My Phone , Comicsgate , UFC
Today our random question issss...
If you could travel to any fictional world from a book, movie, or video game, where would you go and what would you want to do there?
THAT's a great question. While we're thinking about that, let me gibs you my heckin' POKéUPDATE.
I decided last night to catch Mew for the first time. The "glitch"(I'm believing it was intentional) is incredibly easy to perform. Have an Abra, walk into a guy's sight and press start as you land on the next tile so you can get in the menu before you trigger him. Teleport. walk back, battle another specific trainer close by, teleport, walk back, bam, Mew appears. That's SO freaking cool. I LOVE that. This was like, our childhood, the myth of Mew. Sure, there were Gameshark shits to do it, but only WEIRDOS actually had Gamesharks. With this you don't even NEED it: There Mew is, there it always was, right on the cartridges. After you catch him, there's even an actual spot for him in your Pokedex. I thought that it was just discovered a few years ago, but no, people were doing this 20 freaking years ago. I had no idea. How could I have? What was the state of the Internet 20 years ago... It was still pretty young. What was I doing around then? I was probably too busy looking at porn and playing Halo. Pokemon? That's for KIDS, man. Now here I am, having finally checked another box of my childhood dreams.
I'm not even keeping Mew in my party LOL.
I don't know if I'll play through Yellow-- I did literally just do Red, what am I, insane? I do really like the little additions and stuff, though. Like just being able to get all the starters is just LOL. The Ash Ketchum Experience.
I did a bit of Pokemon Emerald, but something that's been bugging me that I never realized is that there's no day/night cycle. That SUCKS. In Gold/Silver, the day/night cycles are extremely cool. Maybe there's a haaaaack for it, but you know, there shouldn't have to be. Walking around at night in Silver was-- night time just looks SO COOL. Ok ok...
My phone? Muh Razr? It got an obnoxious blue line down the side of it. This apparently "just happens" sometimes, whether you drop it or not, so RIP Razr. It was a very neat phone. It still works perfectly fine, but. You know, there's a big blue freaking line down the side of it. So I switched back to my old one. I still love the idea of the folding phone, bringing back that flipppp action, reducing the size in your pocket, but if this is a common issue for them, that's just no good. I'll cope with a giant phone that can't fold instead.
COMICSGAAAAAATE? My excuse for re-using Shi? Billy Tucci's going to be launching a new Shi campaign next month. Isn't that exciting? I still have a lot to catch up on, though. I'll probably back it anyway, I love Shi. A comic that can appease both the Weeb AND the Christian? It's just great. I rly need to catch up though x_x uhhhh... there's a Comicsgate auction going on rn, a lot of cool stuff.
There's one guy's stuff I don't really like. He just draws... Muhammad. Waow. He auctioned off a picture of Muhammad kissing another man. And besides me not hating Muslims enough to buy gay porn, it just wasn't even that good. It's just uh. Shit. That's his schtick as an artist, anti-Muslim stuff. And he's a former Muslim, so at least he has... that. But it reminds me of when I hated Christianity when I was a former-Christian. Would I want to uh... dedicate my life to drawing gay porn of Jesus? Even at my lowest, probably not. That's all. I dunno, his art's kinda shit and his comic is stupid. And he complains about getting death threats from Muslims, but lmao I have no choice but to victim-blame you, like cry me a fucking river. I w-- and this is me being a sinner but I often I do wish Christians had that level of rage for faggots who blaspheme against Christ. I'm not going to hope you get you get beheaded, I'll pray against that actively, but no, I don't care that when you draw gay porn of Muhammad a Muslim DMs you a mean message. That's all. You can at least live with the mean message, stop crying out in pain as you strike them. Like if you're going to draw Muhammad and also want me to feel bad for you when you get death threats, don't draw him kissing men, draw him like, idk "respectfully", like a *nice* painting, even if you're still not supposed to even do that. Then I can pity you.
It reminds me of when Destiny was insulting Muslims and then his soyjak fans were crying that Nick Fuentes and the Groypers weren't defending him. It's just totally a "What the fuck do you think this is" kinda thing. Gay liberal atheists who hate Christians for some reason are dumbstruck when Christian Conservatives won't defend them from Muslims. "B-but i thought you liked freedom of speech..." Ermm, ackshuallyyy, that only liiike, applies to the gooovernmentttt, ummm freedom of speech doesnt mean freedom from consequences, incel :^)
The rest of the auction's been really cool. A lot of great art.
Uhhhhhh... UFC?
Lucas Tracy quit YouTube, which is really tragic. Despite half of his takes being terrible, he was the best MMA YouTuber that there was. Dark days ahead. Rigo's the new TOP Christian MMAtuber, but he's a little too schizo sometimes. MMAGuru's now the undisputed king of MMA YouTube, but he's a little divisive. He's just a liiiiittle bit racist, which is funny but sometimes he gets too upset when a Dagestani wins lmao. He's less funny when he's mad. I MISSED THE MAIN EVENT last night, i passed out lmao. the card wasnt even thaaaaat bad i was just tired. I'm so glad Spivak got the W, he's been so underrated just because he lost to Gane! He freaking ragdolled Derrick Lewis like a woman, and everyone just forgot. Jailton Al..almemieeida was able to hold Lewis down, but couldn't do *anything else* and everyone thought that was a threat to the entirety of the heavyweight division. Spivak subbed him in like, 1 minute, but nooo he lost to Ciryl Gane so ermmm he's trash.SHADDUP.
MMA is such a gay, fake sport. Especially heavyweight, but none of it matters, it's all just fat guys getting fluke ko's.
that's all. Well. What was our question again?
"If you could travel to any fictional world from a book, movie, or video game, where would you go and what would you want to do there?"
This is too hard. I'm going to choose to not think about it at all, and just say POKEMON, I'd just be a trainer juuuuust always camping, traveling town to town, and uh somehow surviving. Maybe I'd settle down in a town with a Lass and teach new trainers how to throw balls.
How about you?
KK the post is done, it's waaaaaaay too long, sry. uhh... idk, new format, i wanna ... do a . nwzzzzzz
ill ttyl. pls take care aaand have a warm day. God bless, fren
hey fren, i hope yooooure. feeling well today.
Today's DAILY ASK is... let's see...
"If you could instantly master any skill or talent, what would you choose and how would you use it?"
good question. before we answer that, and also maybe >pic related, let's talk about POKEMON.
I finished Red. Almost comically easy. You know, 1 of your Pokemon can basically take out an entire Elite's team. Raichu for the ice bitch, Vaporeon for the Rock/Fighting goon, Spooky Ghost Lady was the scariest, but Raichu *still* handled business with the glory of THUNDER WAVE. +swapping out if he gets hit with Confusion, and it's ez pz.
Thennn... Lance? Lance's Dragonairs were actually a little ruff. Thunderbolt was "not very effective"??? I always thought... ...I don't know what I thought. ButWhatever,
Raichu carried my entire team lmao. Even if he didn't have the type-advantage, sometimes it was just beneficial to set em up with a nice THUNDER WAAAAAAAAVE. Beautiful.
Okay, that's that. I might uh... do Pokemon Crystal. Not Crystal Clear, but Crystal. Or maybe just... Gold. I had Silver as a kid, and I liked Lugia more but Ho-Oh is really cool, isn't it?
remember how it was in episode 1, and we're like WHAAAAAAAAAAT? THAT'S NOT ONE OF THE 150 POKEMON WHAT IS THAT
for me, i was so young that that was like, SIGNIFICANT. like a genuine mystery, instead of just "oh, well obviously it's one they'll introduce later". No, I didn't have the ... concept of that in my head yet, so it was a MYSTERY, it was very special. So maybe I'll play Gold this time. Or wait... i never remember the difference between Crystal and the others... 1 sec...
oh you can get Ho-Oh AND Lugia in Crystal lmao awesome. ok ok, that's a no-brainer.
I also like that Crystal actually let you play as a girl. I don't think i did as a kid, beyond just starting with her to see what she looked like.
What are YOUR thoughts on the "guys choosing to play as a female" debate? are those guys secretly tra-- no, that's not it. For an obvious reason. You can't secretly be something that... you know... doeszzzzanyway.
i saw it suggested the other day that male-choosers are just too autistic to roleplay as someone who isn't them. That hurts but I also might be willing to buy it a little. I *do* just play "as myself" in games, unless I'm purposefully doing a memerun. it's my default, i dont LIKE not playing as me. idk if i DISlike it, but it's just what I do naturally. I like being myself. What if female-choosers don't have a strong sense of identity, or don't like themselves? idk what the answer is. i just know that i dont care and am willing to accept "i like looking at girls' butts". That's understandable.
in Touhoumon, you just ARE a girl and can choose to be a tomboy or a girlish girl. I -- have i talked about it yet? later. uh, i absolutely love it so far, but idk how i want to play it & cover it in posts. so LATERRRRRR
anything else?
Nick Rekieta got his kids back, which is great. Very happy for him. As time went on it became more and more obvious that the only real "abuse" going on was that he was indeed hooked on coke. Not good, but uh, you dont destroy a family for that, you just get rid of the coke. Him getting them back is especially significant because it demolishes--well, ALL of the child abuse claims, but in particular that suspicious positive drug test from the kids-- if he had actually been giving them coke, he wouldn't have gotten them back. The test was one of those bullshit hair tests and kiwifarms was insisting "he's giving his kids massive amounts of coke". That never seemed likely to sane people, but now we know that it didn't happen.
so good for Nick. He dragged Josh Moon on stream today which was pretty funny. Josh and Kiwifarms are just shit now. He's like lost his marbles from living in the tunnels of the moscow metro system, and the farms are just mostly mentally ill men and fat women being way too emotionally invested in coming up with fantasies about e-celebs they hate. I still respect Josh's ... *resiliance*, but he's just completely autistic and has no sense of like... reality.
anywaaaaaaaay... wanna answer our question? ANY SKILL OR TALENT?
Well? How about being able to play an instrument? That's good. maybe the piano or violin? or maybe something with a little less competition, like an obnoxious brass instrument, so you can play in a fancy orchestra?
or is the mastery so complete that you'd be undeniable no matter the competition? Hmm...
bleh, programming probably counts in this too, right? what's going to net you more dollary-doos, being able to play the piano, or being able to write a program that can do aaaanyth-- you know what... no, there's a social/pleasure aspect to consider.
give me the piano. so i can just play for people and myself. that'd be nice.
What about you?
Finally, tomboy. there's probably something childish in preferring them, but -- you know what, maybe not. i just had a thought but im TIRED lets go
ok. are we done with hte bloggggggggggg...
im getting strangely tired. i might say exhaaustewfgage
ill ttyl. pls take care of yourself. aand have a warm day. God bless, fren
pic unrelated
hey fren, i hope youre well toooday.-- gimme a sec, ill brb...
kk im back. i just listened to a horrible story from Ethan Van Sciver of having to go to the bathroom in Honduras.
Imagine how easy and fun life would be if you never had to go to the bathroom, ever.
That should be the goal of humanity, not stupid shit like "living on Mars". What are we going to do on Mars? just fill it with more SHEEEEEEEEITTTT.
I've been thinking about a uh... you know. having a daily question for the DAILY ASKER. So it's not just me rambling, right? Isn't that an idea? Wanna try it out?
Well, but first lemme give you my Pokemon Red progress, i know you're really interested!
So my team isss... a Vaporeon named Eve, because I needed to evolve my Eevee because I needed to just get rid of a Moon Stone and free up inventory space. It was a good move though, I didn't have a water type anyway and Vaporeon's the best gen 1 evolution for Eevee. It's cool-looking, nevermind that copypasta. What elseee... a Venusaur named... Sour. Uh. whatever, it gets the job done. My Raichu named Taira. Thunder Wave is my favorite move ever, it's so useful lol. uhhhh... a Nidoking named... Nido. Because I needed to teach someone Strength. That's the only reason. A DUGTRIO?! My first time ever having one in my party. And ALSO my first time ever making good use of DIG. I never knew how INCREDIBLY USEFUL Dig is! I was always a Teleportcel. And that's great, you know, I love Abra and Kadabra. But DIIIIIIGGGGG?! DIIIIIIIGGGGGG is great! For starters-- Dugtrio was whatever level my other mon were at, like 30 or something. So a perfect fit. Yoink. Now I can effectively teleport *WHENEVER I ACTUALLY NEED TO*. Right? When do you need to get back to a Pokemon Center? When you're in a freakin cave or dungeon. And that's when you can dig. I don't need to warp to a Pokemon Center if I'm just on the road, I can just... walk down the road lmao.
So Dugtrio's been a great addition. Happy to have him.
And.. lastlyyy. An Articuno, who just replaced my Pidgeot. Articuno was always my favorite of the 3 birdos. Zapdos looks obnoxious and Moltres's color is bleh.
Sooooo. That's all. I clobbered Giovanni with my Vaporeon, I rped my rival, whose name is Jackoff, aaaand... now I have to uh. Go to the... Elite 4... zzzzzzzzzz
anything else...
ill spare you. uhhh...
I got a random question to answer, wanna do that? Let's see...
"If you could have dinner with any fictional character, who would it be and why?
"
lmao Nick Rekieta got his kids back. Kiwitroons must be losing their fucking minds rn. im not following the happenings, i just heard it on Trashcast. ok ok...
FICTIONAL CHARACTER?
well? how about... well for starters, presumably, we'll be having the dinner OUTSIDE of their story, right? and then, what, am i never going to see the fictional character again? so it has to really count, and be... it sounds kinda gay to say "beneficial", but it's one dinner, it's not like there's any chance we can be friends, right? so... how about...lmao how about dinner with a time-traveler or psychic who can give me lottery numbers?
no, im being a sicko. Let's just easy-mode this, im thinking too much. Can't be a woman, because i dont want to catch feels. fictional MEN. who'd be fun to talk to? inspirational? dont say "Gandalf", that's just cheap. really dig de-- okay, lemme look at my shelf, ill brb...
got it, I'd have dinner with Ender Wiggin when he's an adult.
On his own, it'd be great to talk to him, since he's basically the most empathetic person in the Universe and wouldn't allow me to ruin the dinner with my bad attitude, but he might also have Jane in his ear, so that'd be helpful if I had any burning questions. Questions I can't think of right now.
There, I answered the question. What about you? Do you have a fictional character you'd have dinner with? Let me know in comments below, and don't forget to like, comment, and subzxgrtrthrthshrt
anyway ill ttyl. pls take care of yourself. aaand have a comfortable day. God bless, fren
by wearing a bunny hood and running around him in circles until he dies like a giant eyeball from Mario 64. or a snowman.
hey - im gonna write words.
uhjuuuhhg
lemme see here... -- hello. i hope youre having a good one.
this is a screen from "The Missing Link" hack. It's extremely good. BUT you know what's interesting?
you never see this girl close-up in the original game, you can only see her running around from that distant camera in the castle town marketplace. right? correct me if im being retarded and my memory is bad. but im SO sure you never see her close up.
and it's a good thing because look how STUPID her mouth looks.
cute girl chasing a cucco from a distance, ELDTRICH-LIPPED MONSTROSITY up close?
something i greatly appreciated was that the characters have different dialogue when you talk to them with the bunny hood, just like the real game. something i appreciated even MORE was that it 1- lets you run fast like in majora but also 2- let's you JUUUUMPPP FAAAAARRRRR-- that's so cool. great mod.
uhhhhhhhh... im a little...
anyway. Pokemon? lmao. i got the silph scope, sooooo. i guess ill go back to Lavender Town and get me a gastly. oh nooooooo lmao i -- hmm... you know what's kinda lame? or rather, very lame? trade-evolutions lmao. I BARELY had enough friends when I was a child to cope with trade-evolutions, what am I supposed to do NOW lmfao. hey, are YOU playing Pokemon red or blue right now? lemme know so i can trade you a Haunter so it can become a freaking gengar so you can give him back to me.
im just kidding, im not as upset as i sound lol. i dont care at all actually, i dont even like Gengar. I loooooove Haunter. He was likeee, idk, maybe my first Pokemon card. I remember being in the store with my mom and she got me my first pack of cards. those were good days.
the rare in that pack was a Raichu. I had no idea about rarity though, so I traded it for an Ivysaur because I liked the way he looked more. i wasnt happy when i found out i got screwed lmao but i got over it pretty quickly.
So many uh... 2nd-forms are better than the 3rd. Ivysaur is sleek and cool. Venusaur looks like a... lunchlady. or like that ... receptionist from Monsters Inc.
Wazooooowwwwskiiiiiiiiiiii i didnt like that movie as a kid. at all. idk why. i'd probably likke it more now.
you know what i st...
..
i watched the first episode of the Sopranos. it was good. it made me miss New Jersey.
New Jersey is one of the greatest states, it's so . nice. ok im gonna go
...
im kinda........................ i want to write something better for you later. idk if i can though, but it's in my . mind. ill ttyl
God bless, fren
hey frem hope ur well today.
im alive atm. dont tell anyone. having a bit of a rough time, but i guess i should count my blessings since im not a woman having to box a man
all Italians are born boxers, but that doesn't change that untrained men still punch harder than trained women. That's called science, and it's something everyone loves.
out of every sport, what a --im not going to call it funny, it'd be funny if it wasn't an Italian woman getting bodied. Or any Azn woman. Any other woman, it'd be funny i guess , but it's NOT funny!
Out of all sports, it has to be the sport that's just "punching someone" lmao
at least in something like Chess, there's still a huge amount of people who believe "Well, men don't have an advantage here, so this is OK!" but in the sport where the differences in physicality are the most *visible*, there's just uh... it's just goofy.
You or I could roll out of bed drunk and gorilla hammerfist KO any woman on planet Earth like Donkey Kong, unless she knows some wacky BJJ move and lucks her way into some magical armbar-- but um, there's no submissions in boxing lmfao it is LITERALLY WORSE than that black guy and the pink haired guy who fought women in MMA, the women of boxing have to OUTPUNCH men now.
I think a lot of people, includingg myself, saw the MMA shit and were like "oh come on, this is just as bad as it gets!"
NO IT WASN'T, WE FORGOT ABOUT BOXING.
oh well. uhhhhhhh... the problem will correct itself one way or another. It happening at the Olympics isn't special. The institution of the Olympics does not actually have the ability to grant legitimacy to men punching women's heads off. The people who set the match up might have thought it does, but since it doesn't, you--YOU can rest assured you won't see too many Olympic men v women boxing matches going forward. Don't believe me? When was the last time that ex-Special Forces guy fought in women's MMA? It was 3 years ago. That's called "can't get a fight". What happened after the black guy "Fallon Fox" actually lost to uh... Ashley Evans Smith and she spoke out about him? He never fought again.
"Men trying to compete with women in sports" is not something I follow closely, because that's exhausting and retarded, but when that dude was swimming against girls and clobbering them? Yeah, of COURSE eventually he was going to get banned.
There might not be a lot, but there are actual indignities that society won't allow women to suffer.
Anywayyyyy... who cares? some people think it's funny and root for the guys. i think for the non-combat sports it's funny. but I also understand how much it must suck to see like, a blemish on your sports record that Wikipedia will never, ever, add an asterisk to that says "lost to a man".
wort wort wort
uhhhh... vidya? wanna talk about vidya?
dood, i was just in a random mood and i put in Fire Emblem Three Hopes, even though I haven't beaten Three Houses, because im not in a turn-based mood rn, i want to swing mah sword around, and i forgooot that Three Hopes is DEEEEEEEPPPPPP
It's practically a normal Fire Emblem game, just with musou combat, everything else is the same-- equipment levels, class and skill trees,
the first Fire Emblem Warriors had a veryyyy basic level of that to where it was primarily a Warriors game with a Fire Emblem theme, now it's almost the other way around. It's really cool actually, but also MUH BRAIN no work so good i feel like i was just boxing someone who's much faster and more powerful than me and he punched me in the head a bunch of times.
Zzzzzzzzz
i never finished Age of Calamity, it was good, but like Three Hopes, it kinda moved away from moar open-ended Warriors gameplay to a uh... more "move forward" kinda level and mission design.
i remember Zelda had a really inspiring speech when she like brought all the nations together under her as queen, and it was just hYPEEEEEEEEEE
am i done typing? i guess so. ill ... can i eat? maybe im hungry
ill ttyl, pls take care of yourself.aaaaaaaand. have a comforting day
God bless, fren
when josiemania comes for yoooou, brotherrrr!
i played a few minutes of Wonder Project J2. it's amazing, i love it. of course i only did the tutorial where she explains how to interact with her, but it's just wild. It's so cozy. she lives on a ship docked at an island town. idk why. but she does.
uhhh... effectively it's "just" a point-and-click game but it's special DAMMIT. first of all, it's not goofy/gross/retarded like all of the ones that were on the PC in the uh.. idk, 90s? I was too young, I never played any, but I'm aware that they existed.
it's -- look behind her. You see that couch? Look how FREAKIN COMFY that looks under the window. Imagine living there. Lord above, what a world.
I'm so tired. My sleep schedule's a little goofy rn, but ... ... I'm okay. Really. Aren't I?
Anyway, vunder projekt, rly good. probably wont pick it back up for a while, i can't commit to Josie rn--
i just distracted myself by remembering that Fishtank exists. it's cool that they actually have the site up and working now. i didn't watch much of season 1 live beyond the start, and none of 2, buuuuut-- whatever, good for Sam for making it work.
was i talking about something... anyway, OH. the Mario hack Wizardbro mentioned. i played moar of it, got 10 stars. i was a little surprised when i realized the castle changes on you. i like that. of course, it also means i will most likely never finish it, BUT, it's cool. i like how a lot of stuff is the same as the original, but even when it is, it's not toootally the same. Also, the way COINS CARRY OVER is fantastic. way better than the original where they'd only be for the level. that's a legit nice detail. also the coins are just better, they look better, they feel better to pick up, they're noooice.
have i gone on too long now? bruh, THIS WEEKEND, we're getting TWO TITLE FIGHTS. you ARE gonna finally start watching UFC with me... right? um... you do realize that watching UFC is essential to our democracy... right?
ok im gon-- oh, btw, parallel launcher is awesome. for a while i couldnt find a good n64 emu that'd work on manjaro, but eventually i foooound Ares which works really good iirc, but Parallel Launcher is like perfecccct so far, no headaches at all. yet. and it runs hacks. Ares couldn't run the Mario one. so. thaaats important.
was there anything else? n--
oh i. idk.lmao im going to have to grind for a couple weeks to finish Dragon Quest 3 i think hahahaha i just feel so viciously underleveled. like the final boss basically 3-hits my party. soooo, what, considering it's not even the final-final boss... i should probably get a sage or two... and im not even in the best position to turn anyone into a sage, muh priest still has healing spells to learn, izzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
anyway im going to... sle... .Longbottom when I wake up lmao i half-wrote one but im exhausted. Saturday, 6pm, watch ufc with me. tell me you will or el
ill ttyl, pls take care of yourself aaaaaand. have a comfortable day.
God bless,fren
i never finished writing A Cyberpunk Love Story, but you know what I DID finish?
getting some neato rom hacks.
pic unrelated btw. although it does have an English translation and i-- anwagraoigr. JUST LOOK HOW GORGEOUS THAT SCENERY IS. ANIME IS SO FREAKING GREAT, I LOVE IT. Anyone who doesn't like anime is dead inside, beyond mentally ill. Just not even alive. imagine jumping in that water, coming out, and walkin around that little town a--aight that's enough.
hey hey, i hope youre feeling well today. im gonnaaaa make this "short". the other day i was reminded that Moemon exists, and i was going to start it again and maAaaaaaaybe write-up my playthrough, BUT THEN, our beloved Wizardbro appeared and posted about romhacks and reminded me that they *exist in general*, so i got a fewwww forrrr Ocarinaaaaa and Mario6444444, aaaaand, what else... Pokemon Clover lmao which is stupid but has heart... aaaand uh. there's a ton of Fire Emblem campaigns people made, that's cool.
I played a biiiiiit of the creepypasta one Wizardbro mentioned, but my controller needs-- i have to fix the freakin deadzone or whatever because mario's not running full-speed, BUT-- so far im really impressed with it. it's like wiiiiild. so im excited to play more. I just beat a bowser at that beginning and that's all lol.
the ZELDA HACKS though, im reeeeeeally excited to try. some of the custom campaigns i knew about, but ive never tried any. and i really wanna try the randomizers, THAAAAAAATTTTTT i love. i loooooOOOOOOooooOOOOoooove that idea. Some new life in the game.
for now though, i just got Moemon aaaand Clover, because-- you know, ez pz to just whip out the chinese handheld and play. Clover's so cheesy but i love it. it has plenty of.. that slightly-edgy but heartfelt 2000s chanspeak. i chose the starter that's a little Arab bomb-pokemon. I named him Belal-- BELAL'S FIGHTING THIS WEEKEND FOR THE WELTERWEIGHT TITLE, GOOD LUCK BELAL!!!
uh... anything else... after all these years, im in the end-game of Dragon Quest 3. You get a freakin phoenix to fly on! so you never have to walk or sail around, and you can see the whole woooooorlddd, it's soOOOOOOooooooooo COOL! it's just awesome. im gonna haaaave to grind a bit though. i can barely get to the boss alive, never mind fighting him. plus, i know there's a final-final boss too soozzzzzzzzzzz. idk, maybe ill change muh mage to a sage...
Did you know female have better stats? i didnt know that. Good thing my party is entirely female except for me :')
There's a really cool little quest where you send a party member to help build a town, and the town gets named after them. I had a merchant named Sales and so the town was called Salesburg. I love it. ok im gonna stop typing now
uhhhh... ye, ill ttyl, right? pls take care of yourself and haveeee a warm day.
God bless, fren
hey fren i hope youre well
uhhhh... idk, what's up? what do YOU want to talk about? vidya? fig-- AAAAARRRRGGGH
earlier i was in a perfect mood to write my "Start Watching UFC" post, but i lost it. i don't have it anymore. i have it vaguely in my head, let's see... there's a "Why you should", "how to *get into it*", fun/classic vids to watch, aaaaand ,what? links to Lucas Tracy and MMA guru lol and that's about it. That's what the post will be.
I think it's a good "passive" hobby. or, no passive hobbies are truly "good", but I think, for example, watching ufc/fight content is about ten thousand times better than watching "true crime" videos, which I got sucked into for a while.
it doesn't uh, darken your mind. it doesn't rot your soul.
how about a fuuuuuuuun stoooooory...
the first fight i can actually remember watching, and when i actually staaaaaarted GETTING INTO it? My Dad was watching Alistair Overeem fight Walt Harris. Main event. 2020. VERY memorable fight.
they were promoting the everloving shit out of Walt Harris. Poor guy's daughter was murdered, he was "fighting for her", they were just nonstop playing promos about her being murdered the whole event. It was in verrry bad taste. but that's how it went.
Walt Harris starts out the match beating the everloving shit out of Overeem, absolutely fucking destroying him--blood everywhere, overeem had plenty of scar tissue, so his face was just a shredded up bloody mess as he's eating all these punches-- to the point where it seems like it's GOTTA be all over, right? But NO.
Overeem got up, he SURVIVED the round. And Harris was a prettttty "large" guy. totally gassed himself out, he had NOTHING left. So round 2, Overeem got HIS ass out.
It was such an amazing comeback, i'd never seen aaaaanything like it.
so that's all, greeeeeeat fight. i started watching every once in a whiiile after that, but it's really been the last ...2ish years that i've been watching fight nights every weekend.
AND YOU SHOULD TOO! they're free!...aren't they? the fight nights are at least lmao uh, you know. you. always find a way to watch it.
yandex is a really good search engine.
anyway, that's all. i love ufc. mma in general, but you know, ufc is le premium organization. it's COMFY, it's fun watching fights, i've come to know more about the sport than i even thought i would. I predict fights waaaaaaaaaay better than those HACKS Lucas and Guru.
ok. an-- uh... was there something else?... ... ... ive gone on too long. i was going to gibs my picks for tomorrow's fight night, but NAH. not anymore.
anyway here's a pic of Ryza fishing.
pls take -- is that really everything? ... ... ...well, ttyl. pls take care, hava warm day
God bless fren
i guess they never miss
huh? :)
hey fren, hopeeee. i hope you're w-- 1 sec, i just got an email from DC...
oh, there's a 10-comment per day limit on Neocities now lmao. Ehh... why? I don't see how that's necessary, just block someone if they're spamming you. And does that apply to your OWN posts too? That'd be really gay. BUT... whatever. This isn't supposed to be social media anyway, right? I know we do tend to use it like that, but it-- whatever.
ghastby@protonmail.com or asked6813 on Discord if you wanna chat with me. I wanna chat with you. We can talk about uh. whatever. I d-- i dont think Neocities' comment limit is so great, even if it doesn't affect me. Like what if I WANT to talk to some-- whatever.
Send me an email just in case, so we don't lose touch. Some of you already have, but gimme dat email if you haven't already.
However, I'm also really bad at replying to emails. use Discord if you want me faster.
Where was iiii...
uhhhh... Republican convention was pretty great tonight, wasn't it?
Sure, it would have been too boring on my own, but I was listening w/ EVS so it was very comfy.
wasn't expecting Hulkamania, so that was just fun. Uhhh... just a very impressive convention. Great speeches from everyone, toooootally packed arena. Only Donald Trump can summon that kind of enthusiasm. Almost enough hype in the air to make White people dance a little.
Trump's speech was really good. I know aaaaaaall of the issues the Right has with him, and they're heckin' valid, but-- this is all we have. And for every time he talked about something like... black employment, there was plenty of stuff that mattered. Wars will be ended. Manufacturing will be brought back to America. Things are going to get prosperous.
It was a loooooong speech too. A little bit of a bummer because it reminds you we could have just simply had 8 continuous years of a man with all his faculties were it not for the 2020 election fraud, BUT
good feeling about this time. people doompill with like "they'll just steal it agaaaaaain", but idk, I literally have-not-looked-into-it-at-all, but those key districts that received their special 4am magic ballots probably have had some policy and personnel changes that actually *will*, unironically, make this the most "Fair and Secure Election in History". That's just me being optimistic and assuming with zero research. I'm just saying if it happened in *my* district, this time around, I'd personally be making sure no-one goes back inside after hours to "actually I think I wiiiiiill count some more ballots after all, you guys can go home though don't worry!"
idk. all I can do is vote. Is that a downside to living in a red area? There's really nothing to do? lmao
Anyway ENOUGH politics... vidya?
Dragon Quest 3 is so much bigggggger than I ever imagined. I've been pooooowering through it. I just killed a giant snake demon who was tricking a village into sacrificing girls to it, and it was the ... it was just wild. haaard boss too, like a good 10 minute fight. the game's map has countries based on IRL, idr if the map matches irl, but there's you know, an Egypt town, a Rome town, and this one was uh. JAPAN town lol aaaaaaand. it was really cool,, idk. ironically, there's never really been any "Japanese" content in the Dragon Quest games I've played, so this was a coooool little quest. now I rly hope there's a Japanese town in Dragon Quest XI, that'd be really cool to see in 3D.
am i tired? no. yes. was there anything els-- oh, here's the old who wants to be a girl lol. har har very funny.
it's at the shrine where you can change your classes. im kinda scared though, idk if I'll do it. I feeeeeel like I remember getting there as a kid. Idk if I *ever* got a Sage though. Who should I even change? It lets you keep your spells but it resets your level. hm. hmmmmmm. and should I get a jester? they can become a sage *without* using the zen book. there's only 1 or 2 of them in the game anAAAAAAAALRIGHT.
enough now. Im gonna go. ill ttyl, pls take care of yourself. and have a relaxing day.
God bless, fren
we had vidya in the Sun.
hey fren. iiii hope you're well today. vidya post? just a bit.
i made a 3x3lol. i was thinking od replacing the yuge list of sheeeit i like witht just 3x3s for stuff ya know.
idk though. maybe maybe not. like there's no way i can do this for books, can i? maybe i can. I do like simplifying things. I just uh. I am also a fan of explaining myself. An explanation enjoyer. or maybe I'm not. Have I ever thought about that? Have I ever thought about just having Ocarina of Time on a 3x3 and not worrying about making sure that you know I also love Majora's Mask?
There's an idea. I think I'll try it.
Anyway, wanna briefly go over my picks with me? I'm going to say that they're my most-- oh no, I think Breath of the Wild might be more worthy than MGS. Whatever, WHATEVER.
They're ... the most-memorable or "important" games throughout my life, in mostly correct order from Ocarina being my first trve love to Ryza being my new love, even if it's like, a AA anime game.IT HAS HEART, SO--
Ocarina goes without saying. People call it cheating or a normie pick for a reason, because it is. It was a yuge game. It's beautiful, comfy, fun, the music is good, the WOOOORLD is delightful. I've been playing Link to the Past for the first time, which is right up there as one of the most popular Zeldas, and I don't like it. Like at all. Halfway through the game, Kakariko Village's theme stops playing, in Kakariko Village, and it's like wtf. The world feels so DEAD, I might as well be playing Dark Souls. In fact, yeah, Dark Souls is MORE COMFY than ALTTP, 100%! Ocarina doesn't have this problem. It's got A BUNCH of towns for you to explore! I've joked a lot with my friend, and even basically written an entire book about whether Zelda is or is-not an "open-world game", but no matter what, as a kid, Ocarina of Time felt like an entire yuuuge world to explore. and the only thing "wrong" with it to this day is that it has cutscenes that are kinda long-- which wasn't a problem when we were kids. It's a problem *now* that everyone has goldfish brains, but back then? No.
Let's moooove on... Dragon Warrior 1 and 2. Came on a single GBC cartridge. 1 was short, sweet, straight-forward, but a ton of fun. Decently sized world, again---plenty of towns. You can spend the night with a girl in the first town (you just hold hands and cuddle, I'm sure), you save the Princess and carry her around with you as much as you want to lol, and uh, you get a magic swooooord and aaaaarmor, you become b-- there's no "classes", so you're just an EVERYTHING, you learn every spell imaginable and you're also a warrior, it-- just simple fun. And you only ever fight 1 enemy at a time, so it's not even that hard lol. Great game. 2 though is like 100x bigger and harder. Now multiple enemies will gang rpe you. Even though you get 2 moar party members-- a mage and a femboy-- mooooore than 3 enemies will attack you at once. To this day I've never finished it, I justlmao idk i got too old and Pokemon came out or something. But it's attached to DW1 so it goes on the grid.
Diablo was my first "full" PC game beyond shareware demos. My dad got it for me. It scared the crap out of me, but it was fuuuuuuuuun. I'd play it with my friends for hooours, but we never got very far. Even in multiplayer, idr if we ever even got into that catacombs. I'd only ever beat it when I was a fearless fully-grown man.
FFVIII? i thought it looked cooler than X. My friend made fun of me for getting it intead of X but I don't regret it. I was still too young for Squall to be literally me, but I'd understand him one day. I loved the idea of a mercenary school. Even today, Balamb Garden is a great idea and I wish I got to go there. Played it a looooot, got to dissssc 3 i think, but I was not in the habit of actually finishing games lol.
Here's one I actually did finish. Kingdom Hearts. Game I asked my mom for a PS2 for. Absolute love of my childhood. Played it to death, beat it idk, a dozen times at least, LOOOOOVED the final few cutscenes. So much so that I'd fight the final boss just to see them again. I loved everything about the game. Sora and Kairi's very-obvious love for each other probably affected me in the same way that Sonic the Hedgehog affected other kids. Stylish gameplay, the Gummi ship designing was fun, the music was perrrfect, the story was nice and dramatic. I don't even like Disney, I never have, I think talking animals are stupid and I only was interested in it for the original and FF characters. But they made it work pretty well. Now that I'm *older* I probably tolerate Disney better than I did as a kid, but it also doesn't really matter anyway-- Donald and Goofy aren't just Disney characters anymore, they're Kingdom Hearts characters. So when Donald casts Zettaflare and establishes himself as one of the most powerful beings in the multiverse, itlmao itgajoregjaerg. whatever lmao. Kingdom Hearts stands right up there with Ocarina for me.
AVP2 was *theee* game I'd play with my friends, and it was how I'd start socializing more with total strangers. My friend and I had a clan with some Brazilian guy. Thlmao I'm sure there were others, but he was the only memorable guy. He was a furry, but I didn't know what that was at the time. I was so absurdly good playing as a Pred, I could take breaks and shit talk in the text-chat. It probably was how I learned how to type so quickly. My favorite FEAT I can remember was killing an Alien Queen all alone with juuuuust my combi-stick. The game was dying by then so I think we were the only ones in the server. SAD. Anyway-- the campaigns are a loooot of fun too, especially the Predator and Marine ones. Playing as a Predator and hunting Marines in the jungle is so CRAZY fun. Playing as an Alien can be disorientating though. Overall though, waaaaaaaaaaay better than AVP1, which I think gets more praise than it deserves.
STAAAAAAAALKER. Chernobyl I actually played *after* playing a ton of Pripyat, but it was the first game I *completed* and I thiiiiiink it might be the best. It gives the Zone a very... weird-mythology kinda feel. Like you're on a jooooourney, to find something called a "WISH GRANTER", no-one knows wtf it is, you have to turn off something called a BRAIN SCORCHER that stops people from getting near it, there's-- there's just -- it feels like you're in an alien world with the amount of UNKNOWN going on. It's a great uh... odyssey. That's the best word for it. And STALKER was like one of my first PC games on my OWN PC, not one my parents got me. Call of Pripyat looked so cool to me that I bought the boxed version before I even had a PC that could run it. And when I finally did, it was juuuuuust right.
METAL. GEAR. SOLID. V. Iiiiiiii... don't know if this game belongs here. I've played Breath of the Wild way moar, but - 1 Zelda's enough. MGSV wasn't my first MGS game, 44444 was. And I didn't like 4 because I was a liiiiiittle too young and stupid and I was going through a phase where everything made me squeamish lmao, so I was pre-- anyway. Phantom Pain I love: it runs buttery smooth, it's super dramatic, which I love, the gameplay is incredibly fun and varied, it controls FANTASTICALLY, like freaking Mario 64 with guns lmao it is SO easy to just do whatever you want, you know, sneak up on a guy, grab him, throw him into someone else, dive off a small roof into someone, judo throw someone into a wall, not to mention all of the guns and gadgets-- and you can have a pet doggo, you can have a gf with a sniper rifle, you can just dick around and do side missions for hours, it's an absolutely fantastic game in every way, shape, and form. Maybe my one criticism is that managing your finances caaaaaan be a pain in the ass-- like everything costs MONEY in-game to use, and of course the coolest and most advanced stuff costs the most, but you can still make profit preddy easily. Plus, I tend to play games a jewishly as possible anyway, so I'm just sneaking around choking out heavies and stealing tanks, I don't even uuuuuuse stuff.
AT.EL.IER. RYZA. it's what im playing now, and it's what i NEED right now. Jrpgs are the gaming-salvation of a tired gamer like me. Just relaxing fun. BUT. Ryza gets her own review later, because the post is over.
THE POST IS OVER. HP Longbottom later maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe.
ill ttyl. pls take care of yourself and have a warm day.
God blessfren.
Without hesitation, Hismione hammerfisted Neville's head, exploding it like a Gallagher watermelon.
Hismione let out a primal roar of triumph.ROOAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
It sounded like a Predator (the Arnold Schwartzwhatever movie).
"What was that?" asked Delphi, as Voldemort chucked her back into the Real World. The Shutup spell Volds had cast on her mouth had finally worn off.
"It was the most dangerous predator on Earth... MAN," said Old Snape, turning back. He was wielding dual tanto knives and a short sword in his mouth. He had no idea what kind of man's man was coming after them, but he knew he had to meet him.
"Severus, what are you doing?! Harry needs you!" rasped Voldemort.
"I'm not going there to die Tom," said Old Snape. "I'm going to find out if I'm really alive."
And then, before Voldemort could rasp in protest, Old Snape was gone.
Voldemort let out a raspy sigh and jumped back into the Real World. Delphi was brushing the grass from her pants.
"Delphi!" rasped Voldemort. "My precious daughter, how are you?"
Delphi glared at him. "What do you want?"
Before Voldemort could answer, Harry had arrived.
"Voldemort," he said. "Did you get the Time Turner?"
"I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT!" shouted Delphi. "You only ever come see me when you WANT something!"
"You ungrateful little girl, I just saved you from being raped," rasped Voldemort.
"HP Longbottom wouldn't have DONE that!" cried Delphi. "He's an ALLY to fem folk!"
"HE'S AN INCOMPREHENSIBLE ELDRITCH MOONSTROSITY, YOOOOOU LITTLE IDIOT! YOU STUPID IDIOT, I'M SO ASHAMED THAT YOU'RE MY DAUGHTER!"
Delphi started crying, and Harry Potter couldn't stand this nonsense anymore. He took out his Sig Sauer P226 pistol and pointed it at Delphi.
"Delphi, hand over your Time Turner. Or I swear I'll kill you."
"DAD!" cried Delphi, "DO something!"
Voldemort took out his treasured Colt M1911 and pointed it at his daughter.
"NOOOOOOOOOO!" cried Delphi, and she ducked.
Voldemort and Harry both opened fire...
ON WHAT WAS BEHIND HER!?
Remus Lupin, who was naked, collapsed from the hail of bullets.

hey fren, iiiiii. hope you're feeling well today. i-- 1 sec, lemme get a b-12...
\there i feel better.
you catch any of the Republican convention today? I was listening with Ethan Van Sciver, and I heard the state reps feeding the delegates into Trump's powerarmor, but then i tuned out after he was officially nominated.
our next VP is gonna be a Catholic, isn't that cool? And a CONVERT, the best kind.
The virgin born Catholic vs the CHAD adult convert.
im half-kidding. anyway, what else?...
vidya? wanna... talk about... v....zzzzzz
I'm actually ifffffy on my new cpu. I can't te-- well, for example, I do th-- okay, okay: I'm definitely seeing some increased performance. It's just that uh... idk, sometimes I'm just a uh... ...uncertain kinda guy.
You know what I'm not uncertain of, is how great Veronica from DQXI is. You find her arguing with one of the GIANT RIPPED SHIRTLESS HORNED-HELMET GUYS and she's just yelling at him, pointing her finger up at him, he's like 7 feet tall, she's like 3 feet tall, her freaking hat is so big.
Her HAT IS SO BIG. And she's so smug. She'-- I know, don't start. Don't START, she literally is cute. And funny. ENOUGH.
She's A CHARACTER. She and Erik are just *delightful* so far. Erik's the kinda guy you want to be your best friend irl. Serena's a bit less ?interesting? than them, but you can put her in a bellydancer outfit, so it evens out.
The expressiveness of *even the townsfolk npcs* are soooo good.
There's a guy(another helmetchad) watching the horse races with his gf and she's just bored out of her mind, looking away, mumbling, and he's like "Look at that one!" It felt like a meme, it was so -- you know, I wasn't LAUGHING OUT LOUD, but it was just *funny*. Excited goofball dragging his miserable woman to watch horses.
Uh, the game is just absolutely incredible so far. If I ever stop being Eternally Sick, I doooOooo want to give it a proper review, but--you know, I'm just piling these reviews up. I *will* get to them when I can. I'm not always going to be sick/busy/both. Maybe even tomoOoOoooorrow I can start crossing some posts off the list. Anyway...
This game really *feels* very much like how Dragon Quest on the Gameboy felt when *I* was a brat in a hat. It's a grand adventure, the towns feel very much alive, I love the overworld and how you can set up camps--which utterly BTFO the bonfires of Dark Souls btw--and how you can choose to engage monsters instead of random encounters. The music's good, the enemies are classic, it's visually pleasant, it's *wholesome*, it's just fun.
I'm still you know, very much in the shallows of the game, but so far so very good.
I think I've even come to fully-cope about the removal of the Cross from the series. Fictional world, fine. But the symbol that replaced the Cross is *still* a cross, its arms just point upward, giving it a sort of "crown" appearance. It's fitting. And uh... you know, whatever lmao. I don't get upset about the Hylian Crest just because Link used to have a Cross on his shield. It's still a fictional world, and even if it *is* neato that Christianity is so dominant that its imagery even enters fictional worlds, it'ssssss whateverrrrr. SEE IF IIIII CAAAAAARE.
You know something funny? I was playing the fan translation of Dragon Quest 3, and there's an old man who says "I want to be a little girl again". I wonder what it was changed to in the GBC release, I doooon't remember. I haven't gotten that far in the GBC version in... some of the people reading this weren't alive lmao I remember dropping the game on the ground when I was at a diner with my dad, and it ruined my save file. I wasn't even that upset for some reason. I'm just like "Oh, I'll just uh, start over." I feel like that something most kids would have went ballistic over, *including* me, but -- maybe I just really liked Dragon Quest(Dragon Warrior). Whaaaaaaaatever that's my story.
anything else? ... Ryza? I'm gonna play some Ryza later. Uhhh... I should just crank out an HP Longbottom just so I don't start getting rusty. but i... am i tired? anywa......zzzzzzz.. ok. ill ttyl. Pls take care of yourself and have a relaxing day.
God bless, fren.
hey fren, i hope you're well. i love fishing. i made a fishing pole in Atelier Ryza. it's not a mini-game or anything, you just press A on water, like collecting any other supplies.
I was going to write about tomboys or something, but our president was almost assassinated. I guess I'll briefly write about that.
There's a ... temptation to fall into uhh... political solipsism. Like, always. Once you understand that conspiracies do happen, all of reality is suspect from a million different angles. You can't move far enough out to get a look at the full picture, you don't hear the phone calls, you're not behind the locked doors. But instead of having such a worthless mindset, I'm going to just allow myself to enjoy the Donald having yet another gangsta moment, however that moment might have come about.
Trump's a lot like Ryza. He's high-energy and he never gives up, even when his life is in danger. He's also kinda like an alchemist since he turned a smol loan of a million dollars into multiple billions. Do you understand the difference between a million and a billion dollars?
I learned that Fire Emblem: Three Houses has a NG+ today, so that makes me feel better about it. It's. Nice. but there's so much in the game it's-- if an RPG has missable things, and no NG+, that like EATS me. If there's a NG+, I can always lie and say I'll get it on the next playthrough even if I never actually play it again. I tried not to let it eat me, but it eats me. The game's so thicc, I know I'm going to missss something, so itzzzzzzzzzzzzz
zzzzz
anyway... i forgot ... uh... bruh i still never even finished Xenoblade ahahahothjirtjhoijth AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH IT WAS SO GOOD I WAS LOVING IT AND I JUST STOPPED AND NOW now how am i supposed to pick it back up? whatever, is the blog over?
Trump has very-obviously been given what the Chinese once called the Mandate of Heaven. The signs are all here, it's in the very air. Even the incompetence(or...?) of a middle-aged woman directing the Secret Service can't stop him.
I don't want to hear that he's owned by That Certain Country rn, let's cope about that later. Just allow yourself to relax a little bit and enjoy the forthcoming Trumpenreich.
hey fren, hope you're well today.
Is it just me, or is there an American Spirit in the air tonight?
I was going to poke a little fun at non-Americans in this post(deep well of easy material to work with), but who really cares? lol.
Can you even name 5 countries that aren't America? Can anyone?
The answer's "no", because America is the only real country on the entire planet.
There's nothing really special about the 4th of July, because every day is Brought To You By America: they're about us, they're for us: Monday through Saturday only stopping for the Lord's Day on Sunday, every day is America Day.
America has the greatest m-- i just remembered we still don't have bullet trains, and i ruined the entire post im now in a foul, racist mood.
obviously there's Issues Wrong With America That Everyone Knows, but they're not pleasant to talk about-- and in Other Countries(lol), you may even be arrested for talking about these issues but who cares? That sounds like a global issue to me. One that America suffers the least from, because I can say whatever I want to--i just dont want to because im *already* mad and im just going to make myself madder--but *IIiIiiiIiiiiii* won't go to prison for it. Like in lesser nations on this planet.
The only thing that matters at the end off the day is that I'm drinking a nice cold water. Water is what keeps us alive. It's what makes Our Struggle surv... ... there, now i can use this picture of EVS's artbook.
My America post is ruined, i dont even care. The Bullet Train Issue actually matters more to me than almost anything, and there's also the matter of "7/11 Nationalism" if you remember that-- America doesn't have that anymore. Who does? JAPAN?
i know it's popular for leftists to seethe about Japan, but hey, their vending machines don't need to have cages on them.
I know, "America is going to ruin Japan", just keep blaming us. Yeah, yeah. Go ahead, be that gay nerd on the elevator saying "i feel sorry for you". You know what's Really Going On, and that weEeeeEeeeee are not the cause, but on behalf of all Americans, I will accept your hatred. Because we can take it.
Uhhhhhhhh... idk, we're still the best though. I know "Die for [CENSORED]" is a true meme, but say idk, the GROUND opens up and the Locusts from Gears of War start invading America and only America, and everyone could all be assured that it wasn't a fucking trick like Some Other Wars. I'd fight for America then.
Life's complicated. Anyway... happy 4th of July lmao.
anything else?
Dragon Quest XI is pretty cool. it's almost like if Zelda was a turn-based rpg. like you caaaan explore arooOooound a toOooown, smash potsssss, there's chhHeeeessts to opennn, you can ride a HooOoooorse. it's neat. The anti-Christian censorship by this point isn't as offensive because it's not like DQXI *originally* had Crosses and they got rid of them. At least there's still Churches lol. Really, at least it's not Final Fantasy and Shin Megami Tensei and just full-blown "Ackshually, God bad". That's way harder to tolerate.
What was i... oh, lmao i got Palworld, too. It's fun. It's stupid, and i dont think i have the youthful autism to get TOOOO much into it, but it's actually pretty neato. Nintendo should kinda be ashamed of themselves and hopefully they'll learn from it. Pokemon Legends: Arceus has very, very little on it. And I did like Arceus, but Palworld's just lmao it's SO COOL making a camp and having your pals just *helping out* on their own. you can set them up to be totally self-sufficient. and you can peeeeeet them, feeeeed them, they're just neato. also you can butcher them. but that'slmao i dont think ill ever do that. you can kill wild ones for their MEAT. precious meat. it reminds me of Slowpoke tails. Palworld DARES to go where Pokemon feared to: the reality that EVERYBODY'S GOTTA EAT.
Also you can get a Zeldaesque paraglider and you can climb wallslsorogiujsoergh. it's just fun lol. character model's kinda sheeeeit, but whatever.
uhhhhh... i tried Enshrouded for a bit. It ran like shit, but i was impressed by it anyway. like it would have been really cool if it didn't run like shit. About 10 minutes in, i found a homosexual love letter. to be fair to myself, i was already probably going to refund it for the performance, but that was when lmao that was when i just turned it off and refunded it.
anything else? i gottttt Granblue Fantasy, but i havent installed it yet. Freaking 90 gigs, what is it, a Call of Duty game? ech.
im gonna go back and focus more on Ryza though, im drowning myself like a retard, i juuuuuust really wanted to try Palworld and Enshrouded. and then i figured wWweeell i mightt as weWwwweell get Draongquestoessef sand Graniagierg
ok im gonna go.
uh. happy America day to everyone. it's kinda gay to say "i love my country", when your country is like, blackmailing the entire planet into state-enforced homosexuality, but there's *other* things about America that make it really neat, like our people, (someof)our culture, and uh... our lives. we have a lot of comforts that many people around the world don't have. attribute that to whatever you want, it's still something for Americans to feel blessed for. and uhhh... it's a country worth taking care of, worth saving, just like our entire planet. Aand that's why you're going to just shut up and vote for The Donald this time, right? :^) he's going to end (another) war and reestablish our manufactuZzzzzzzzzzzz
ttyl, pls take care
God bless, fren.
i hate that i can now tell that someone is transgender just by reading a tweet. they dont have to have a flag in the name, they dont have to have a pic of themselves, i can just look at their words and know.
that's not what i want to talk about though, i just saw someone praising the upcoming Dragon Quest 3 remake on twitter, and . i knew. that's all. it's not magic, it's context clues. would a woman be on twitter being excited for the Dragon Quest 3 remake? The answer's no. I'm not claiming to be a magician, it's not SUPERNATURAL that whenever I have This Feeling, and I check a person's profile, I'm never wrong. this is just 1+1.
anyway.
. hey. i hope youre well. im inlmao im OK, i just put myself in a slightly-pissy mood.
i knew already, in the back of my mind, that Crosses would be censored in the Dragon Quest 3 remake-- they've already been censored in the series for a while, replaced with this a gay little trident icon instead.
But I was possessed anyway to look at a picture of a Priest from the remake, who of course originally had crosses on their outfits. No surprise, they have tridents now.
This doesn't REALLY bother me (beyond my already-existing state of perpetual disgust at Christian imagery being censored from games unless it's to degrade it), I wasn't planning on getting the game anyway-- I typically don't like remakes, at ALL. They ALWAYS fuck something up, without fail. A remaster is NEVER better than the original game, it's just something easy for a company to shit out that retards will buy because new thing good ooga booga dat resolution.
Obviously there's a difference between an "HD remake"(trash) and a completely-new game like what Resident Evil's been doing.
But these HD remakes are just clownish. My favorite example that I'll never stop bringing up is the Twilight Princess remake where the shadow are dicked up so characters' noses and lips pop out way too much. And that's actually a *decent* remake. Look what they did to the fucking characters in Diablo 2.
The Dragon Quest 3 remake is going to take an 8-bit sprite game and add *just* the right amount of new detail to make it fucking ugly to me. I'm looking at screenshots right now, I invite you too as well. That to me is the EXACT right amount of detail for sprites that I don't like. You're starting to not allow me to fill in the blanks with my imagination, and you're introducing an amount of ugliness. I don't like it.
Quite frankly, even the SNES version of Dragon Quest 3 is PUSHING IT. I still like the way it looks, but it's getting dangerous. These remakes of 1, 2, and 3 are just-- i cannot possibly care about them. And yes, a perfect cherry on top is "We've erased the Crosses and mention of God in the game"
Remakes are basically transgender video games. I'm not going to elaborate further because I still have a lot to write about.
I wasn't intending to start whining about Dragon Quest 3, this was supposed to be a reminderpost to myself... so im sorry. im sorry for WHINING.
I had a heckin' religion post to write, but I'm not in the Right Mind for it rn, I'm kinda NASTY rn, so that's no good. What was it about? i can't rem... oh, the idea of "um yikes, what do you mean God is always watching me? That's heckin' awful!" So many faggots like Wil Wheaton and uh, whatever gay Irishman wrote "Preacher" whine about the trauma this caused them as a kid and it's just so GAY. i've been meaning to write about the myth of religious "trauma" in general for a looong time, but it's such a boring subject that even my dog is whining rn 1 sec, lemme check on her...
she saw a rabbit.
speaking of teenage girl troubles, RYZA?
Ryza's troubles are way less dumb than the Westoid female. Nothing traumatizes her, she just wants to go on adventures. She wants to brew potions and hit things with her stick.
I don't normally save blog posts, but I need to take the last one and clean it up, add to it and convert it into a proper review for Ryza. It has too much gold to just sit with the rest of this miserable blog. So Ryza's going to get a FULL PROPER review. You might call it a REMAKE of that blog post.
HP Longbottom later unless i pass out. im kindatired. it's fun to just write bullshit, even if it's not actually good for you. it's like doodling just so you don't forget how to draw, but you're not really improving whatsoever. And thataattatatats's not good. it's not good. regardless, the story of HP Longbottom must be told. because it's actually um, like, really good and i know you agree.
anyway... that's it? was there something e-- oh. eh. idk, this is kinda stupid, but i kIiIiiiinda want to write a "Start Watching MMA" post. that'll be .fun. stupid. fun. dont care though. tired. ok
ttyl, pls take care of yourself. have a warm day
God bless, fren
hi fren iiiii hope youre feeling well today.
*this heavily heckin' sexist post applies to MALE CHARACTERS too, but i dont care about them, im a man.*
Atelier: Ryza is a fun game.
it's bright and colorful and charming, it's fun collecting alchemy ingredients, the combat is decent, active-time turned basedddd aaaand uh Ryza's cute. let me get a pic here...
i cropped her thighs out for you, dont worry. look how happy she looks.
there's no getting around it, is there? we have to talk about her PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES, right?
how are young men supposed to cope with sexy anime girls? Well, we know how NOT to cope with them: the way that feminists and people of gender do-- seething hatred.
you know in your heart, when you look at Reisalin Stout's thighs, that it's wrong to hate her. BUT she's still dangerous, right? Just for different reasons. Shes' dangerous to a fat woman or troon's pride because they'll never be her, but she's dangerous to YOU and I, my brother, because oof.
but the reason Atelier Ryza succeeds as a game, is that it's not about Ryza's body, as very-much-there as it is. It's about her antics with her friends, her wanting to learn alchemy because helping on the farm is booooring, it's about the bright colorful world, the relaxing music, the ADVENTURE.
It's not even cope at that point. You don't have to defend or make excuses for a hot girl in a fantastic game. EVERYONE ELSE has to defend why they wouldn't want attractive people in a video game. And yes, clothing makes a character less or more attractive. No, Ryza would not be better off wearing Onion Knight armor.
Quiet in Metal Gear Solid 5 was a little """divisive""" because people who don't play video games, and also Jim Sterling, were upset that she wore a bikini. Hideo Kojima gave her a silly purpose for needing to have a lot of her skin exposed, and it made as much sense as anything else in Metal Gear Solid, but to Jim Sterling and other troons who hate attractive female bodies, there is no excuse under the Sun that will ever be good enough for a character in a video game to be visually appealing. Throughout the game, Quiet lives the feminist dream of brutally slaughtering men like animals, but because she's also attractive and not a stupid loudmouth bitch, some people just don't like her. And that's NOT okay.
Time's UP for sickos not liking cute girls in video games. There's no excuse for it. They'll hide behind accusations of it all being "too horny", but they're the exact people who believe in "sexual liberation". When another woman, or an actual woman in Jim's case, is competing for their attention, suddenly they're prudes. When they're not facing anime girls, there's NOTHING they WON'T do with their genitals, but when a normal male is horny over an attractive women, real or anime, sexuality becomes sexism. it's all pride-based seethe.
Too bad, you fat gross whore. Ryza's learning alchemy in thigh boots and there's nothing you can do about it! Yes, I WILL bring Quiet along with me even though DD is better at tagging enemies and Quiet's silenced non-lethal sniper costs half my mission payment!
It's all actually very simple: Hot girls in video games are dangerous, but they CAN be acceptable if the game is actually good. What can NEVER be acceptable is ugly girls. Video games are an escape from real life, where there's no shortage of ugly women AND men.
The artist who drew this picture of Ryza created something good. It's surely MY duty to not drool too much over her.
Overall, it's valuable to be reminded that women can be beautiful lmao. Contrary to popular(incorrect and dumb) belief, it will actually make you less misogynistic. it's a LIE that it gives anyone "unrealistic expectations", women aren't unicorns, we interact with them every day. We KNOW they don't look or act like Reisalin Stout. Typically.
So until you've met your tomboy alchemist gf in real life, it's probably not going to destroy your sense of reality to interact with one in a game. I'd probably start arguing that even V-tubers can be safe to watch, but ive used up all my CARE about this so I won't even start.
uhhhhh... Atelier Ryza? Fun game. Gorgeous little towns. Lacking interactivity a bit, but I've heard the sequels are improved. Ryza and her frens are delightful. And ye, Ryza has a nice face, chest, butt, and thighs. Cope with it, I am.
Really enjoying it so far. 8 out of 10, dare i say? 7 for now, just because it's a liiiiiiiiiiittle slow, but by the time it's over, i might say 8.
I once read a pretty funny article where the writer said something like... "Quiet will never be your girlfriend, and your girlfriend will never be quiet."
That's such a great freaking line it crushes me that I didn't come up with it. It's uh... you know. Women are here for a reason. They're our partners, we're their partners. It's cool that super-idealized versions of them exist in video games. Just don't let it divorce you from the reality that women can be really greatt IRL. They have cute voices, and they're not all annoying and ugly. You know that, I don't have to tell you that. OTHER PEOPLE think I need to tell you that, but you and I both GET IT. Okay.
Ryza, 7/10
pic unrelated. a cover from the '90s. I like it a lot, but EVS actually didn't like this cover. I can't remember if he said why. I think Heather's expression is really good. I guess Froggo's not lookin' TOO g--
WOW wwhat a coincidence, I'm listening to Trashcast rn and EVS LITERALLY JUST SAID "Reservoir Frog" because he's thinking of reprinting some.
Anyway this isn't a frogpost.
Iiiiiiii... hm. i feel ok. my head's a little--lmao. as always. but the MOMENTUM i was able to get going has kept up. You know, uhhhhh... working out helps. with a lot.. uh... a good remedy for so many of life's woes is to just drop and do a set of push-ups. And follow it up with a Rosary.
What's today... Sunday?... The ___ Mysteries. I'm so out of it man, I forgot The Glorious Mysteries are Sunday, with them all repeating except The Luminous on Thursday. i think that's right. i used to know it by heart. I think I still do, it's just my DUMB BRAIN that NO WORK SO GOOD rn...
GAHHHHHHHH my head. imgogrgrsggrs
lemme... ufc? no, no recap. the fights sucked. im actually getting tired of following it. Plus, it's an awful company for a pretty shitty sport. It'd be one thing if they actually had tournaments to fairly arrange fights, but they don't. They make memefights, they give prospects they like easy opponents to pad their resumes. And these guys fight 2 times a year while like... Muay Thai fighters fight uh... 20 times a year lmao
And ufc fans always whine when there's grappling in a fight. I getttttttt it, it's not as fun as striking, but this is the sport YOU chose to watch, retard. Just watch kickboxing and stop pretending you want "a sport as close to real fighting as possible", it's such a meme. I don't BLAME YOU, kickboxing is more entertaining, and I'll probably start watching it too.
Anywaaaaaaaaaaayyy...
Ryza? I only played the opening, I've done basically nothing. But it's veryyyyy bright and beautiful and it has nice music, so. Things are looking comfy. Ryza's a funny character, and her charming antics are a good distraction from her thighs. ive barely even looked at her thighs! Or her chest!
The combat system's prettyyy neato, but I've only experienced the most basic-- like I don't even have alchemy yet.illplaymore tomorrowwww...
I was impressed that the game didn't force-feed me English voices when I turned it on. I don't even know if there *are* English voices at all, and I'm not going to find out. Something terrible that happened in Tears of the Kingdom was that I had to suffer through the opening with Zelda's AWFUL, AWFUL English VA before I was allowed to go to the menu and switch to Japanese.
vile. okay okaiagoijrsogis
OKAY IM WRAPPING Up this post-- it's a TEST POSt with my exciting new update to my ...python form that, ideally will format this perfectly so i dont have to do aaaanything except just drop the new file in aogzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
ill ttyl. pls have a relaxing day, fren
God bless
hey fren, hope youre well
Me? I am not lmao. I kinda am, but...well. I had to take a bit of my older meds because I was just uh. my head was in agooonyyyy. And now it's not-so-much. But now I run the risk of going low-energy zombiemode again. I ha... ideally I can taper off very slowly, but. meh. I can't really express how hard it is for me to write these stupid blog posts sometimes lmao. Writers love complaining about how hard it is to write, but it's only hard for me because my freaking head either hurts, or I'm uh, like a fogbrained husk of a man. It's sad. But I'm here right now by the grace of God, so allow me pls to just talk to you for a bit about trivial things.
Vidya?
I played a little Link to the Past today.
It's so many ZELDA-BOOMERS' favorite, but it's one of the few that I've never finished. I finished A Link Between Worlds, but that doesn't count, right?
I like it, though. It's a real ball-buster though lmao There's so many enemies on every screen constantly trying to turn you into a princess.
I forgot besides Princess Zelda, you have to save SEVEN MAIDENS. That's pretty wild. In a Link Between Worlds, they're not all maidens, that would be unacceptable. Uhhhh, men can be helpless victims too ya know.
I blmao i-- don't get the wrong idea. Okay? Okay, NERD? You think YOU like badass and/or competent female characters more than ME? Well ONE of us has spent months and months now reading basically nothing but books and comics starring women who are either decapitating fishmen with swords, decapitating regular men with swords, or uh... learning magic to become influential political figures.
The fattest lie the feminist delights in telling is that men don't want women toever do anything except be pregnant. As if there'd be something wrong with that, but no-- please, do something. Do something cool and smart. Can you, though? No, feminists cannot, that's the issue. They're experts at complaining and not much else. They're just[started going off sry]
I read an article a while ago about some girl(Asian) who invented a giant bug zapper that uses AI to only activate when a certain invasive species has landed on itlmao. THAT'S cool. I mean, she should still probably get married and make more of her, but I AM glad that she did this cool and useful thing. She wouldn't have been able to do that if she was like, you know. A social critic. Like me or a feminist.
Ok, enough.
Penumbra: Black Plague is really good. But it's also really BAD because I can't get it working w/ Proton. Isn't that tragic?
I was playing some AMNESIA: Derr Dark Descent, and it's. ok, but .It's not Penumbra. The Sanity stuff kinda sucks lol. It gives me a heeeeeaaaadddacchee(ME!). You can turn the dizzying effects off, but then it's just-- like, extra pointless. Also the STOOOOORY is just-- am I just getting old, when I have so much less tolerance for people and animals being tortured than I used to? Uh, spoiler for a 100 year old game: your character basically got lied to and groomed into torturing people in order to try to save himself from a stupid cosmic entity that looks like fleshy wallpaper. Really, your benefactor is basically just an alien who drinks a chemical people(and doggos to a lesser extent) secrete when they're suffering and in fear. Like a Hollywood executive. It's.
It's not Penumbra. Penumbra has a dark story, but nothing as uh... overtly nasty as that. And it has waaaaaay better atmosphere than Amnesia. There are no "That light... it doesn't seem natural" moments in Amnesia. There are none. And I can't even play the best Penumbra. THE SUFFERING IS REAL.
Even Penumbra: Overture is ackkkshually better than Amnesia. I used to not like it as much as Black P-- well, maybe I still don't. But it's better than Amnesia anyway. I don't like saying that, because The Dark Descent really is good, it's just uhhhhhhhhhhhh... again. Not Penumbra.
I don't think Frictional Games can make Penumbras anymore. Amenesia: The Bunker is fun, but it's just too much of an action game. It's a collectathon where you're hiding from a monster. I can't even remember any p-- okay, I guess it's fair to say there's some light puzzles in it, and the creative ways you can overcome obstacles is impressive.
Penumbra just had so much more of a focus on traditional puzzles, and it's kinda COMFY even if it is a survival horror game. You have to repair a server in Black Plague by reading the instruction manual, and it's just 🤌
I still liked Le Bunker, but uh. ech. I'm just rambling now.
I got Atelier Ryza. I complained that it wasn't on sale the other day, now it's on sale. I'm not saying God influenced Koei Tecmo, but I AM saying that Koei Tecmo executives read my blog.
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... Ryza's installing rn. What should I try first? Her or Trails of Cold Steel?
I think they'll both be comfy though, soooo thaaaaatssss nice. Do I still have enough brainpower to handle a jrpg? Do I still have enough heart to get involved in one's story? I thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiIIIIIIIIIIiiiiiiink so. Wish me luck.
UFC303 tomorrow? Exciting. As long as Michelle Waterson doesn't get mauled, I'll be OK. I'm rooooooooting for Jiri over Alex I think, but I just can't decide if he'll be able to get it done. People act liKe Pereira's fists are nukes, and they are, but people forget man, he didn't knock out Jan. Jiri can win. I think he has to wrestle though.
It's wrong of me, but Alex's new fans are so gay that that it helps to root against him lol. And I JUST was rooting for him against Jamahal Hill a few months ago. Sad! Uhhhhhhh. Love Jiri though, he's Our Guy. but
BUT.
let's wrapitup. are you hungry? i think i mightbe................
s...im gonna go. pls take care of yourself, and have a warm day.
God bless, fren
heyhyey fren. hope youreee feeling well.
I'm still reading Drakuun, iii just finished another issue. It's. Fun. Johji Manabe's artwork is really good. The machinery, the cities, it all is just really impressive, and nice to look at. And yeah, DA WOMEN. sheeeit.
He has a way of drawing women with a-- I hate to use the word "curvy", because when niggas use it today they're always talking about fat women... Manabe draws fit women but he draws them with a *thin* layer of fat on them, so they're still overall very in shape/muscular/cuUuuUuuurvy, they're just not uh 0% bodyfat. So for example, they won't have abs, but they'll still have the line up the center of their stomachs. You know what I mean. He does a good job. You believe me, right? Let me just find a freaking pic of the ... ...okay, trying to find one that isn't too lewd is really difficult and I don't feel like going through the effort of taking a pic of my own books... so this'll do. NOTE THE TUMMY LINE, ok? It's THERE. You see what I mean? She's fit, but there's the *thin* layer of healthy fat. RAAAAAAH, IF YOU NEED MORE EVIDENCE, JUST SEARCH YOURSELF, I CAN'T FIND A GOOD ENOUGH PANEL RN TO PROVE TO YOU THAT I'M NOT INSANE. THEY'RE GOOD BOOKS ANYWAY, OK? THERE'S JUST NUDITY IN THEM AND I'M NOT POSTING IT
THERE'S A THIN LEWD LINE that protects society. And I'm here defending my country by telling you "The girls in this manga are sexy, but I'm not going to show you."
Why am i talking about this... my head hurts. does it? ... it does a little.
I'm switching medications, so i'm kinda having a blmao a bit of a rough time, you understand.
i ... was at least able to work out moar. Like significantly more than I've been. Still less than what I used to, but, God willing I can get back there. That's always a good thing, but bruh my head lmao. My head is just-- do I have to cut the blog short? would you be mad at me?
Okay, lmeme just..... I got Prince of Qin, so I'm looking forward to Chinese lectures. Aaaaand I DID end up getting Trails of Cold Steel. Which Lutris absolutely couldn't download, so I'm dling from Gog rn. Hopefully a painless install, right? Wish me luck.
I'm really OK, I just... i get really tired of my head hurting man lmao. Like it's just TIRING, you know? It's not even that painful, thank God, but it's liiiiike... whatever.ultimately i;m a very blessed person and I ought to remember that.
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. yeah im fine. I just. maybe i stress out too much lmao. im really ok. ill just ttyl, ok?
pls take care of yourself. pray for me pls if you feel like it, aaaand. have a cozy day.
God bless, fren
i deserve to play games while i wait for my muscles to recover. right?
hey fren, i hoep you're feeling well rn
This isn't a Shipost, I just had this pic of Senrayku's cover up on my ebay because I've been delaying getting it for months.
Call me a faggot, but Shi's outfit is just cool. It's very JoJoesque, isn't it? The poses certainly help evoke that Joestar feel. But iirc, Billy Tucci actually was a fashion designer before he started drawing her.
That's the kind of fashion design that doesn't uh... make me sick lol
A certain level of flamboyance. Not *too* much.
My better-conservative brothers might not appreciate how uh... less-covered she is below the waist. BUT SHE'S GOTTA BE ABLE TO MOVE QUICKLY, full pants would be TOO CUMBERSOME. Yeah im coping BIG DEAL. Quiet did nothing wrong, either.
Anyway... wanna go through my Gog wishlist with me LOL.
Let's see...
Some of these, we can just get rid of. Do I really want The Count Luncanor that badly? No...
Last Labyrinth? YOOOO "voiced by Stefanie Joosten, Quiet from Metal Gear Solid V". What a coincidence, right? Still $20 though? Let's leave it on the list, but not get it rn... oh maaan, the devs worked on ICO and Shadow of the Colossus though?
"SAW meets ICO" Uh, I like 1/2 of that.
Here's a review--"Incidentally, she isn't really being tortured, it's just some really dark decisions." What does THAT MEAN? "just some really dark decisions" ffs, no-one ever can just COMMUNICATE AN IDEA
Whatever, let's move on. I'll check it out later. Laaaaast Labyrinth. It does look interesting though.
Here's our goal. 36 items on the list now, let's knock it down to 20, one way or another!
ok ok... System Shock 2 Enhanced. Not even out yet, and I honestly might not even want it. I didn't love the remake of 1. I think I'd more-likely play the OG 2. Let's get rid of it.
Tokyo Xanadu eX+? I really want it, Xanadu Next is reaaaaally good, and the trailers for Tokyo Xanadu have sold me. But it's full-price. Oy friggin vey. Leave it for now.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance? On sale, but do I REALLY want a knight simulator? It's cool and all, but... I think it's too-involved for me. If I'm going to play a life-sim, you have to either give me monsters or anime girls.
FATE: The Complete Adventure? I already have FATE, it's neat, but I don't really love it enough to get the expansions at full-price. Maaaaybe if it was on sale. Leave it.
Divinity: Original Sin 2? A wrpg that I added for no reason. There's no way I actually want to play it, let's check out the trailer... mmmm, "the gods are dead, gods-schmods, I don't care about them, it's up to us mortals to--" Zzzzzzzzzwaoaw nice story. Out ya go.
Dragon's Dogma? I already have it on Steam, I'm not paying for it again. Out.
Don't Be Afraid? some horror game, let's just yeet it.
Okay, now we're in dangerous territory... the Ys games. Let's skip them for now...
Blade of Darkness? Mmmm... Let's leave it alone for now.
Zwei: The Ilvard Insurrection? Hm. Leave it.
X-Blades? Ehhh. You know. Let's just get rid of it.
Prodeus? Yeet.
Crystal Project? Yeet. Turok 3? Yeet. Zwei: Arges Adventure? Saaaaave...
Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie? Ssss...ave for now.
Asterigos: Curse of the Stars? Yeet into the stars.
The Bard's Tale IV? Yeet. Disciples 2? Yeet. Alpha Protocol? Yeet Protocol.
Potion Permit? Uhhh... Indonesian dev, cool, UK publisher, very uncool. Need to learn more. Leave for now pending investigation.
Warhammer Boltgun? GET IT OUTTA HERE, i don't care about action anymore.
Mary Skelter 1 & 2? Idk. I think I saw a Nun in a trailer, and I need to see if they're harmed or disrespected, so -- leave for now.
Trails in the Sky and Trails of Cold Steel II? Gotta think about this.
Quake 4? ECH. it is cool, but I played it enough as a kid. YEET.
Prince of Qin lol. it's a dollar and I want it. leave it. Some guy was complaining--let's see... "my character is constantly lecturing me on how to be a good Chinese man and an honorable civil servant!" Uhhh, yeah, I want that lmao. I love Chinese lecturing. Romance of the Three Kingdoms left an impression on me. It even affected some of my writing. okok let's just move on...
Forgotten Realms: Demon Stone? I have to stop letting Elf women mesmerize me. Just leave it for now though.
Trenches - World War 1 Horror Survival Game? The "It mimics the voices of your loved ones" idea is nice, but the character's loved ones aren't mine, so this doesn't really work. I know if I start hearing a woman crying, it's the monster. It's a trench, there's no women here. Nice idea for a story, doesn't work as a game. YEET.
Evil Islands? An old open-world wrpg before the West was gay. Leave for nowwww...
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided? I feel like I have it on Steam already. YEET.
Dawn of Kagura: Maika's Story- The Dragon's Wrath looks neato, but it's $20. ECH. ECH.
That's it, we did it. Only 19 on the list now.
I already have Ys 1 and 2, so I'll uh... play them first.
I'll be thinking about a Trails game though. I saw FISHING in one of them too,FISHING. HOW CAN I SAY NO TO THAT, HORSE RIDING AND FISHING? I'll have to. I think it's the Trails of Cold Steel games, but I'll make sure.
I've waaaaaaaaaaaaasted enough of our tim-- oh... UFC303's this weekend isn't it? Wanna go over picks real quick? Get it outta the way, right?
Ricky Simon vs Vinicius Oliveira? ooo Ricky KO's Song Yadong last year. It's all Ricky, baby.
Rei Tsuruya vs Carlos Hernandez. My heart says Rei. And my head says Rei. Much younger, undefeated. Has KO power. Japan on the rise baby.
Andrei Arlovski vs Marin Buday? Nothing like a fat heavyweight flukematch. I'll take a risk on Andrei.
Michelle Waterson vs Gillian Robertson? I'm still not over Michelle being robbed in her second-to-last fight and then being fed to a much bigger and stronger woman who tko'd her. That hurts. And Gillian's last win was a TKO. For a woman, that's wild. Almost 10 years younger than Michelle. Michelle's path to victory is decisio-- I'm looking at Gillian rn and she's just so FIT, I have to stop. I'm rooting for you Michelle, pls win and retire. I'm tired of seeing you get hurt.
Payton Talbott vs Yanis Ghemmouri... Payton Talbott. is so gay. but I think almost no-one can beat him outside the top ranked guys. So, rest in pieces Yanis, sry you're getting fed to him.
Charles Jourdain vs Jean Silva. Featherweights... Jourdain's record is shit and he's kinda an idiot. Coming off a loss, and Silva's on a 9-fight win streakkk... Jourdain's the favorite, but I think Jean can get it done. I hope so anyway.
Old Man Cub Swanson vs Andre Fili. idk, who cares. Fili probably. His gay Shiva/demon tattoos are so stupid though lmao but I also don't like Cub because he clobbered Dooho Choi. Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatever.
Saltyman Joe Pyfer, the Strongest Man in the World, who shattered Francis Ngannou's punch record vssss.... Marc-Andre Barriault. This is totally up to Joe. Hermansson mentally broke him in their fight. I have to assume he got his shit together, so I'm going with him.
Ian Garry vs Michael Page. Garry ALL DAY BAY BAYYY. Uhh... he can do it. He's more well-rounded, he's a solid striker, my dog is licking herself and making a lot of noise, let's see how she is... ok, she's ok. Uh... Ian Garry winning would drive people insane, so that's really all I want. He's such an asshole, and I like him.
Mayra Bueno Silva vs Macy Chiasson. Look, there's only so much you can care about WMMA. All right... Macy's the dog, but she's got a pretty fair reach advantage here. But. It's harder for women to utilise this, simply because they don't have the knockout power men do... and they don't exactly have the footwork to dance on the outside and just point fight. There's no reason Mayra can't power through and push her against the cage. Also Macy's been KO'd. 2 years ago, fine. But her chin hasn't *improved*. I'm going with Bueno Silva. DOMINANT decision.
Now we're talking ANTHONY LIONHEART SMITH vs Roman Dolidze. One of those great "whoever wins" fights. Both total kings, don't really care. BUT: Roman's coming up from middleweight. That's wild. I don't see him taking Anthony down, or at least not holding him down. I have to go with the criminally-underrated Smith here. Or do I?... I can't even remember if I've seen any of Roman's fights. But it's hard for me to see him finishing Smith. And if he's not finishing Smith, Smith is winning be decision. So DAS IT, I think. Roman's also taking the fight on short notice, I thiiiiiiink Anthony was preparing to fight on this card? idr, I'm picking him either way.LION. HEART.
Brian Ortega vs Diego Lopes. Heart-breaking fight. But Diego's RISING, baby. It's his time. He and his haircut are the future of the featherweight division, and he's going to prove it by dominantly finishing an ELITE veteran like Brian Ortega. r1, GO DIEGO GO
Alex Perereraira vs Jiri Prochazfdcaha?
My heart says Jiri, my head says Alex? Jiri *was* winning their first fight. Until he wasn't. Heavier weightclasses and their gay fluke 1-shot knockout power. At least when flyweights fight, there's no question of "luck". Jiri's so wild. If he's made adjustments to avoid Alex's left hook, he wins the fight. He's definitely got better grappling. But Alex has surelyyyyy been training with Glover to improve there, so who knows? It's not outside the realm of possibility that Alex SUBMITS Jiri just like Glover almost did, right? It's gonna be insane. It's just uh... a little sad that I doubt we'll see all 5 rounds. People have said that as the fight goes on it favors Jiri. Idk if that's necessarily true. Alex has shown that he can win at any time. Whether it's in round 1 against Hill, round 2 against Jiri, or even round 5 against Izzy.
But when we talk about Alex's power, we tend to neglect Jiri's. What happened in his last fight? His legs were getting chewed up, everyone was insisting IT'S SO OVER, JIRI'S LEGS ARE COOKED. And then he chased Rakic down, on his supposedly compromised legs, and finished him.
Something worth noting is that Alex DID actually leg kick Jiri so hard that he completely knocked him off balance at least twice. Even though leg kicks in generfal are extremely overrated, ALEX's evidently aren't. Being off-balance in front of Alex? That's not good. Those kicks might even be more dangerous than his left hook. They're easier for Alex to land, and he'll keep landing them.
Jiri's path to victory seeeeeems to be trying to take Alex down again. His wild autism style on the feet is good, but it's not... good enough. I think. Unless he can get Alex against the cage with it. And he can, and he can win a round that way, just like he did the first time. But every round starts standing up. It's just seemingly so-much more dangerous for Jiri. A bit of luck for him is that Alex doesn't seem to have been able to train as hard, he's also taking it on short-notice, aaaand, he may have a broken toe? That's not a huge deal but--
it sucks to talk like this lmao. Jiri Prochazka was the most dominant force in the light heavyweight division just what, 2 years ago? He beat EVERYBODY. Look at the freakin guy's record. He has THREE TIMES the amount of experience as Pereira in the octagon. 30 wins, and only 4 losses. Alex has 10 wins and 2 losses. You think if Alex fights another 20 times, he's only going to lose 2 more times? MAYBE, but the point is that Jiri is without question one of the greatest light heavyweights around. It sucks seeing people talk about this fight like he just has no chance whatsoever. He won the first round of their last fight. Jan took Alex to a CLOSE decision. Izzy KO'd Alex stiff. Anything can happen.
Anyway, I'm going to HOLD OFF on picking this fight until I see how they look at weigh-ins.
I can't believe3 i wroteaoiregaeouiraegui
lmao ill ttyylllllll. pls take care and have a comfy day. God bles, fren
Hey fren, I hope you’re feeling well. Pic unrelated, I’m just reusing it. Or maybe not, would it be that strange for me to end up talking about Harry Potter?
I kind of want Dragon Quest XI. It’s on sale, you know. I’d feel like such a freaking poseur, though.
I’m not like Everybody Else, I never played Dragon Quest VIII. So how dare I just jump in and play XI when I’ve only played 1,2,3 and *some* of 5?
Even worse, I definitely can’t get Atelier Ryza, I’ve never played any of the other Atelier games.
The World: Oh what, now that there’s a tomboy with thigh boots you want to try the series?
Me: No, you don’t understand!
It’s a shame because it looks incredible. The game. The GAME.
You know, even with insanely bad English localization, jrpg fans still eat good. They can only ruin games so much.
AAAAARH, WAIT A SEC... there was a game I kinda wanted to check out... I'm in a bit of a HORSE MOOD. lmao. Like I-- it's cool that you can ride a horse in Dragon Quest XI. But I'm thinking of a different game now... Tales something...
1 sec...
Oh no. I have 37 items on my Gog wishlist, and 30 of them are on sale 😭
The game I was thinking of was The Legend of Heroes: TRAILS of Cold Steel II
Yeah, three guesses on if I've played The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel I.
That'd be EVEN WORSE than me getting Dragon Quest XI, right?!
Bleh, look at this review for TrailsIII:
The devs are based, unfortunately they aren't the ones handling translation. During a livestream NISA talked about censoring games to remove offensive things like "sexist" jokes. They later backtracked that statement. However, this game removes not just references of femininity but the word itself. This is in addition to general overzealous culturalization, or whitewashing as some call it. NISA has a long history of being on the pro-censorship and anti-japan side of localization.
At least it's a good reason to Not Pay For It. Still, I hate to hear that. My "Erm just learn Japanese then chud" resolution is coming along VERY well though. The other day when I was playing Trinity Trigger, a character said OHAYO and the subtitles read: "Trans rights NOW!" and I knew it wasn't correct. I'll be fluent in a matter of years.
And then I can Pay For the Japanese versions instead of Not Paying For the English ones.
No, it's uh... idk. What if I just sent a check directly to the devs?
That's such a good idea that it can't work. I'll figure it out. I have like a week before these sales end. I should have just gotten Ryza when it was on sale what a freaking mistake.
Anyway...do you want to talk about anything? Oh, Harry Potter? ... ... Okay, I can't do it, you were right. Was there a reason I stopped writing HP Longbottom? I was probably busy. That's so weird. Maybe I'll write some more. There, I made the pic related. My finger hurts, I think I hurt it lifting weights. That's so stupid I can't stand it. I can't freaking type.
I'll ttyl. pls take care aaaaand. have a warm day.
God bless, fren.
lmao ye ye das rite, im gonna use a stock photo

im going to uninstall The Bunker rn, 1 sec.
there. i was playing it too much. i basically beat it to death anyway. it was good. uhhh... you know, 1 thing i can never stand is seeing priests harmed, and of course there was a dead priest. I mean *everyone* was dead, but uh... that's all, i dont like it. im tired of it. and the more i think about it, the more i uh. REGRET? even playing the bunker. maybe im focusing too much on it, but so what? it's a video game and even if there were zero dead priests, i would have been better off not even playing it lmao. whata waaaaaaaste of tiiiiiiiiiiiiime maaaaaaaaaaaan. at least i . didn't get every achievement. i totally was STRONG and UNINSTALLED it, like someone with a lot of self-control, and it only took me until after i'd finished it and gotten most of the achievements andAHAHAHAHAHAHA
im tired. im watching Sam Hyde play Fallout 3.
[3 paragraphs of me whining about other people whining about "racism"]
what was i talking about again...? Fallout 3?
Ermm... you do realize that Fallout 3 is making FUN of people like you... right?
Always the elipses lmao
[more whining for 2 paragraphs]
anyway, this was definitely. a post. anyway, at least i uninstalled the Bunker, maybe today i can do something other than play a video game where you run from a monster and hide under beds
ill ttyl. pray for me pls, im tired
God bless, fren
hEYHEY
lemme go withhhh...
Dos Santos via Brazilian Supremacy,
Uhh Stamann by decision,
uh oh, TWO Brazilian women... which one of them is a lesbian... is there a childless rage factor in play... lemme get Moura, decision
uhhhh... Castaneda by decision but this should be a tough one

Ricky Turcios, DOMINANT decision
Uhhh Jacoby by KO, Reyes spent all his power defeating Jon Jones
aaand. Imavov by decision, Imavov has literally NO excuse not to win by decision, and if he doesn't win(by decision), then UFC fighters are trash. there's absolutely no reason why you shouldn't be able to outstrike a 40 year old man
that's it. I put 1/2 as much thought into this as last time when I went 10-2, so if I do better or the same, MMA isn't a real sport.
That's about all
Women are great and pretty.
I finished a NG+ "custom difficulty" playthrough of The Bunkerino. (1 MOAR DAY UNTIL INGLORIOUS REX 2 ARRIVES ;_;)... OH ALSO, ANNA That Star Wars Girl is PREGNANT? That's so great, God bless her. And God bless you for suffering to the end of this stupid rambling blog post, ttyl havagooddaypls **edited to remove pointlessrambling
we're so bunk
i finished der bunker today. it was prettyyyyy. good. i liked it. hmmm... what did it take me, like 3 or 4 hours to finish. Call the tutorial and intro about half an hour, then you're basically in the *main* part of the game. you're in her guts. sugar walls.
it's lmao so, YOU'RE A FRENCHIE in WWI, which immediately is pretty nice because you don't have to worry about any kind of exhausting kvetching about nazis in the game. You get trapped in a bunker with a booboo on your head, so you have AMNESIA and there's a MONSTER in there with you. You find the Administration Office and that's like your "safe room" for most of the game, because it hasre lockable metal doors and no holes in the wall for monstro to come through. Connected to it is a generator room where you can fuel and toggle a generator that powers all the lights in the bunker. The lights are important because when they're on, monsterbro will only come out if you're making a lot of noise. He doesn't like the light. When it's lights-out, he'll come out sometimes just because he feels like it. I was probably about 2 hours into the game before I actually had my first encounter with him coming out of the walls.
So: You need to find some dy-no-miiiite and a trigger to blow up a collapsed tunnel and escape, so you wander around collecting stuff like a wrench to open grates or a bolt cutter to cut chaaaains, all the while avoiding being rped by this monster. It'sssssssssssss pretty great. (it's also very much like the 1st Penumbra game)
I've decided it's better than Alien: Isolation. Significantly better, ACKSHUALLY.
The game's relatively short, but it's STACKED with stuff to do. Stuff you're not going to do because you're not going to think about it. Like here's a wooden door bro, how do you wanna get inside? With explosives? With a shotgun? Maybe try to find a way around? Oh boy RATS, what do? KILL them? Lure them away with some meat? Spook em with a flare? Chuck something heavy at them? WAVE A TORCH AROUND AT EM?
HEY THEY'RE GONNA COME BACK THOUGH, maybe you wanna consider expending some of your precious fuel to burn the body they were eating? Or what if you lured the monster to come out and maybe he'll run through and kill them for you?
HEY THE MONSTER'S OUT!? SHOULD YOU HIDE UNDER A BED? MAYBE SHOOT HIM TO SCARE HIM AWAY TEMPORARILY? THOSE BULLETS ARE PRECIOUS THOUGH, WHAT IF YOU NEED ONE TO SHOOT OPEN A LOCK? OH WAIT, D--sorry caps lock, what if you have your bolt cutters, so you don't need the pistol to shoot open locks anymore? Ruh-oh, you tripped a trap and you've been WOUNDED, and some RATS are being attracted to you. Is it so over? Or can you use this to lure them into another trap? Oh, you can't? Uh, better close the door on them thenlol.
Uh, the game's really neato, that's all. After playing it, I think they basically nailed it. I actually LOVE its length(that's what I said). It doesn't overstay its welcome at all.(Something Alien: Isolation very much did)
The items & inventory I was whining about last night is actually prettyyyyy good, and playing on Normal, I finished with an abundance of every kind of resource.
I can't believe the way my dog's lying on my bed rn. She's on her back with her head down over the side. Of course i don't have my phone near me so i cant take a picture. she looks so comfy. i wish i could be that comfortable on my bed. maybe i should start sleeping on the floor again. What was i talking about? Amnesia?... lol. get it?... haaaaaaaaaaa
Umm... The Buuuuunker... items... oh, soo rags are actually preeeeetty good, because you can combine them with STICKS to make a torch, which is like a perfect rat-repellent for the rest of the game. It burns out eventually. Idk how long it lasts, maybe 30 seconds or a minute, but if you only take it out to spook rats, you can keep 1 torch the entire game. It'd be a great light source if it lasted longer. But it doesn't. Unlike your wind-up flashlight, it's also quiiiiet, so it's got that going for it, too. But if you're in a position where you need to be quiet because monsterbro's nearby, you're probably not going to want to be lit up anyway. Even though he doesn't like light, he's uh-- you know, he can see you if you're lit uplol. In the pitch-black darkness, his vision isn't actually much better than yours, so you can play spooky hide-and-seek.
ANYWAY that's all. the game's goooooood, i likeeeeee it, and when you beat it, you get NG+ where you can just randomize eveeeeerythiiiiiing, so "NO TWO PLAYTHROUGHS ARE THE SAME" and that's pretty special. I think the core gameplay is fun enough to justify it. A little scavenging, some hiiiiiiding from a moooonster, and a little rat wrangling. It's a solid game. And it's wrapped up in a simple but good little story that shockingly isn't extremely gay for Current Year.
I'd still put it below A Machine For Pigs because I'm a hipster snob. But I can SAFELY call it better than Rebirth, since Rebirth was 1/2 trash.
Anything else?
no.WAIT. Inglorious Rex 2 is coming on Friday, so I'm very excited :') I have to re-read 1, I'll probably Rexpost about it. okTHAT'S it. the blog is finished.
let's uhhhhh..ill ttyl.
pls take care of yourself and have a . relaxing day.
God bless, fren
before i keep forgetting, check out
Mojahed Fudailat
on youtube. funny ufc animations.
i am calling on you to start getting into mma. if you have amazon prime, you can watch ONE FC for free. it's better than UFC anyway.
my head is killing me. why is my head killing me? it's different than usual, though. it's the kind of headache that actually kinda "hurts good". ultimately it still hurts, though. like it's going to get to me eventually.
God help me.
Amnesia: DA BUNKA is prettyyyyyyy good. The inventory + crafting system is a little messy. Like consider the following: you can either carry a rag or a fuel tank. First of all, does that make sense? No of course not, BUT beyond it not making sense, the value of the rag as an item is diminshed because it has to compete with the fuel barrel. Which isn't *necessarily* a bad thing, because obviously not all supplies have to be equal in value. But a fuel tank is going to keep the lights on and keep the monster away so you can explore much more easily for a few minutes. A rag needs to be combined with ANOTHER rag to make a bandage, which will heal your wounds. The monster 1-hits you. The main threat of being wounded is the rats. The rats are easily avoidable in a number of ways. And if you *do* get injured in some way, there's first-aid kits.
So it's uhhhhh... there should have been a separate space for ragslmao. They're rags, you shouldn't have to drop one to carry a tank. It makes them basically worthless. The rag isn't a progression item, it's an "i made a mistake" item. Which isn't bad, but *is* bad when it has to compete with a progression item. The fuel tank can be used to rid yourself of some rats permanently. It's not a contest.
The same general idea applies to your pocketwatch. It's a POCKET watch, it goes in your pocket, why does it take 1-unit of inventory space equal to----zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
im just whining. the game is pretty fun. and i do kiiiiiiiiiiinda like the Resident Evil style inventory. generally.mostly.my head... what's ha..............................
ill brb.
kk, im good. it started getting to me.
uhhhhh... the monster is pretty scary. He's just called THE BEAST. he IS a bit better than the Alien from Alien: Isolation. A little less of a constant-nag. At least when the lights are on. I try not to let the lights go out.
You can actually turn the generator off whenever you want to, to save fuel. I should try to progress a little bit with it off to get a better feel for the monster.
You've got a fair amount of options for coping with him. Hiding under desks and beds, in closets, uhhhh, you can shoot him to stun him temporarily--i'm not 100% on how much it takes to get him to retreat. I feel like I once shot him 1 time and he ran back into the walls, but another time I had to sink 3 bullets into him.
You can aaaaalso... use grenades. Orrrr. run. That's about it, it's just better to not be seen by him. Wait, you can aaalso... light fires, lure him into pre-set traps, uhhhh... oh, something kinda neat is that he'll kill rats for you if they happen to be in his way. What else... Zzzzzzzzzzzzz im sleepy. oh, and beyond just hearing him hobbling around in the walls, he'll also make the lights flicker when he's close, so you know it's time to stop making noise. obviously no such clue is available when the lights are shut down, but he's a noisy enough lad on his own.
Anyway, he's a good monster. very intimidating.
There wasa very, very similar monster in Penumbra, who'd kill you in the dark if you didn't plug up some holes in the wall first. Basically exactly the same, but you never saw it. very coool, thanks
ok im in a mood because owie owie my head hurtsLOL.
so... am i forgetttttttttting anything... reading? Drakuun still. waiting for inglorious rex 2. coping and seething a little because the shipping label's created but it still hasn't been sent yet so im like checking it every day, beingg all miserable and reeeeeeee ;_;
Shane Davis is so freaking funny. Some faggot on twitter was whining at him for a "racist" character in the book, and Shane just responded with: "Sheeeeeeeeeit" I can't believe that. Maybe Gen Xers really aren't so bad. actually no, they're bad until i get my book.
uhhhh. that's it. im gonna go. take something, ill . ttttttttttttyl.
pls take care and have a happy day
God bless, fren
our money's funny
our change is strange
these days aint sunny and the sea aint tame
goooooood afternoon neofrens, im here to blog at you *pounce*
im writing this w/ muh gay little python thing now, im TIRED. im TIRED of writing in freakin libreoffice.
it worked fine, but--it was just exhaustinglmao. like i wanted something to simplify muh blogging experience, and i ended up, what? having to click images and set their distance from the border and anchor them to the paragraph and Zzzzzzzz
what a nightmare. so. idk for now, im going back to this.
WHAT'S NEW, Pikachu? i went 10-2 in picks last night. 8-4 if im being unfair to myself. Porrrrer-ayyyy did well, but Millions Must Makhachev.
picking fights kinda makes it less fun though imo. because then instead of just sitting back and enjoying the fights, i actively root for someone, and it makes it much less comfy. so i probably won't d--i mean i always have *some* idea of who i think will win, but if i don't say it out loudlmao or if i dont write it down, then i dont have to be held accountablmao anyway whocares
uhhhhh... hm. bad stuff happened to Nick Rekieta. i dont uh... care. i want him to end up OK, that's all. "Guy becomes addicted to addictive substance" isn't really ... like mind-blowing news to me. So hopefully uh... rehab, work out marriage issues, whatever. just be OK.
"Just Be OK" is what i want for everyone.
a guuuuuuy on NEOCITIES was banned recently, presumably for spamming and following people who'd blocked him. And it's uh. a little sad. because i put myself in the shoes of someone who apparently wants a bunch of neocities followers, and i lose my website. it's just uh. kinda...
anyway, he was a nihilist, and i thought that was really. something.
because the freedom that nihilists believe they obtain by pretending that there is no meaning to life seems to never result in anything especially impressive.
we see in this instance that it ends up essentially taking the form of a social media spam bot. Is that what freedom is?
I think it's a uh... and look, no haaaaate to the guy again, he's just a young guy with a website, but this is the point--everyone's either a slave to Christ or they're a slave to sin. The "freedom" that comes from declaring that life has no meaning is just an enslavement to our base desires. Like attention. It's very human to want attention. But it's good to be... aware of what's going on inside yourself, and to be able to take a step back and to respect people when they don't want to be part of an advertisement campaign.
That's not as easy when we pretend that life has no meaning. And it ends up with uhhhhhhhhhh, making extremely-unnecessary social mistakes. Like there's enough things for everyone to be mad about already.
That's all. It's not really uhhhhhh... Zzzzzzzzzzzzz i hope he ends up OK, that's all.
Nobody's OK enough anymore. I know i'm not. im freakin exhausted.
AMNESIA: THE BUNKER.
it was on sale, so i finally caved and got it. Rebirth actually wasn't as bad as people say it was, but it was agonizing that one of the main villains was like just a racist guy who was mad at you for not fucking him lmao. i thought that was just silly, very Current Year kind of villain. what else... actually, a lot of it *was* boring as hell too, but there w--i'd say 50/50. it had some AWESOME parts, and honestly, the pregnancy thing was kinda cool. uh. overall though? worst Amnesia game. even with the cool parts, worst Amnesia game. Worse than Machine For Pigs(underrated), waaaaaaaaay worse than Penumbra.
anywaaaaaaaayzzzzzzzz... i hope The Bunker's not too gay, that's all. I've heard it favorably compared to Alien, because the monster doesn't rubber-band to you. I hope that's true, because Alien was way *over*rated imo, you never had a single moment's peace to explore. a--im sooooooooo tiiiiiiiiiireddddddddd
how about. ill ttyl. pls take care of yourself.
aaaaand. have a relaxing day.
God bless, fren.
