  • And willingly. I might be unfairly judging because I’m a non-American that has been watching this unfold from the outside. But this has been no master plan. There’s been no deception or trickery. These people have repeatedly and loudly told us all what they’re about. But Donald Trump could say “Hannibal Lector is a fine man” after half an hour of shuffling around onstage to golden oldies and his supporters were like “my hero! 😍”

    Long before they were trying to ‘protect the kids’ from trans people, they were trying to ‘protect the kids’ from metal and punk and rap and calling everything satanic. But all along, we all knew that they were raging hypocrites that campaign for things like child marriage while claiming to actually give a shit about children.

    The way I see it, not a single person over say 25 has the excuse of not knowing or not remembering. They don’t get to use the “we were tricked” line later on. In fact, no one with the ability to read does. Southern Republican states have a global reputation for being full of kiddie fiddling preachers and politicians, for being run like 3rd world countries and for being incestuous motherfuckers. This is known. And this is why I’m going to press X to doubt wherever anyone tries to tell me that they thought the price of eggs would improve.


  • I embarked on a mission to play as many of the Sonic games as my aging laptop will handle last year some time. So far, the only Classic era games I either haven’t started or 100%ed are the odd ones out, like Sonic Eraser, the SegaSonic games and Tails’ Skypatrol. Not sure I’m even gonna bother with Sonic Eraser because it’s actually just a shitty little match 3 game that obviously used Sonic for marketing.

    As far as the Modern era goes, I haven’t got too far in yet because I’ve been pretty hooked on Sonic Adventure. Going to be doing my 3rd run of Sonic Adventure soon, this time with the Japanese voice tracks and the retranslated subtitles mod. I got to the Biolizard in SA2, took a break and haven’t returned to it yet. Honestly a little disappointed with SA2 because I was hoping for more of what we got in SA1 but better, like a hub world to run around in that actually has more to do than just go from point A to point B, like side missions and shit. And I’ve started Sonic Heroes, which is honestly pretty fun so far.

    And the game that I fired up as recently as today was Sonic Advance, where I’ve completed Sonic’s basic run but haven’t collected all the Chaos Emeralds yet. And I’ve just started an Amy Rose run.

    I go through obsessions. My previous mission was to watch every DC Comics adaptation, which has now faded into the background and provides me with something to watch when I can’t find anything else. Just because there’s so damn much of it. And I can see my Sonic the Hedgehog run going the same way because I can already feel that I’m starting to burn myself out with it.

    The next non-Sonic game that I’ll probably get into soon is an indie game called Unsighted that’s been on my to play list for a while now. RPGs are usually my jam but it’s been nice having a break from the lists and endless pinned wiki tabs that usually go along with them.

    The thing that I don’t like about ‘3D’ movies is that they’re clearly flat 2D images like a bunch of cardboard cutouts with a bit of trickery to get certain things to stand out more than others, and I can’t see it as anything else. I can lose myself in the movie for moments at a time but am constantly pulled out of it and back into the real world every time something fucky happens with my perception or I try to look at a detail in the background that just stays blurry.











  • Asmongold is one of these ‘anti-woke’ YouTubers. Spends a fair amount of time complaining about women not looking pretty enough for his standards from what I’ve seen, while he himself looks like a fucking rat, with a bedroom that looks like a rat’s nest. I hate downing people’s looks and I too, have been a depressed mess with a terrifying bedroom before. But also, people in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.

    I don’t actually follow any of these YouTubers and to be honest the only time I ever use YouTube is when I’m in the mood for some music videos but I’ve seen this asshat come up over and over in feminist spaces and places where people make fun of the anti-woke grifters and the idiot marks that adore them.





  • I don’t know if it’s just my server / app combo. Since I’ve been starting out here, certain things are hard to tell if they’re network issues or software issues, so I apologise if I’m wrong. But I’m starting to lose count of threads that I’ve visited that apparently have x amount of comments but absolutely nothing when I actually open the thread. Real Reddit moderator shit. Surprised they haven’t locked it and given no reason whatsoever. I think I need to start taking notice of the instances that this happens with, to see if there’s repeat offenders because there’s zero reason to even try participate when they’re running things like this.

    I too was interested in knowing the meaning of these symbols. But apparently this platform kinda sucks.
