This says a lot about society

It's crazy that One X turned 20 years old yesterday. This was my and many others intro to "emo rock" music back in the day and it shaped a lot of my tastes moving forward.

Let me check things out

Front-facing skarmory will never not be funny

STREAM TIME Playing more Forza Horizon 6 and will be joined by my friend @bowiewolf.bsky.social later on. (No he's not Bowie Knife) Twitch.tv/papabray

Caught the Nintendo Direct, I'll admit there wasn't a ton for me there personally but I'm happy for fans of the franchises getting new stuff. Gonna do a quick thread of my general thoughts on what was announced.

REALLY hoping sega isn't going to have us all loathing their efforts to revive old franchises. The new Shinobi is great, but this is looking rough as hell and I'm actually a little worried about the quality of the new JSR now. Praying they take in feedback and give these games proper time to cook.

Current plan is to get streams up and running again in July. As to whether or not it'll be long-term is still up in the air, but I promise to bring SOMETHING this summer. Apologies again for the radio silence on the channel, thank you for the patience and understanding!

Between the Eva & Godzilla crossovers in Sonic Racing Crossworlds and a new Spyro game getting announced I've actually been excited for games again. It's been nice

Hyenas are just forever associated with this to me

Been sick the last few days, mainly breaking out into harsh coughing fits unexpectedly. Tending to the jumping spiderlings has been WAY more stressful, they're still incredibly small & I don't want to accidentally launch one with a poorly timed cough. I would never find that spider again guaranteed.

What do you MEAN it let me call it that???

Not sure what general consensus is on that new Wolverine game so far, but I think it looks cool as hell. Shame I'll probably never play it as I am NOT getting a PS5, but it does look good.

baby and berry, same size ❤️ #pokemon #fanart

I had to explain to someone yesterday that this is actually the German title of this movie and actually was not edited to say that

Finally picked up RoA 2 on sale. Still probably going to play Kragg a fair bit, but out of the newcomers I really like Galvan so far. Its design is really cool and I dig the magnet gimmick in its playstyle a lot actually.

Just learned that the oldest harbor seal in captivity lives right here in Oregon, she's named Skinny and just turned 51 yesterday. The more you know!

Got some actual top-tier fan merch today

REMINDER THAT THE ANNIVERSARY FOR LOSS IS JUNE 2ND

I've still got somewhat of a phobia of birds, but pigeons get a pass for sure. Love those things.

Technology is incredible

Dude, I'm not setting up on another social media site. I'm genuinely more willing to just fade into obscurity and never been seen again at this point.

I can't help but think about how whoever originally wrote the original backrooms story definitely isn't receiving any money off their concept being turned into 6 billion shovelware games and a movie. That has gotta hurt.

I think adult content should be labeled, I think people dealing with sexual trauma not being surprised by unsolicited nsfw is a good thing; that all being said, the way this site has been handling censorship is absolutely fucking ridiculous and not conducive of a good environment for anyone at all.

Been working at a card shop for a while now & I'd say for every 1 kid trying to get cards of their favorite Pokémon for fun there's like 5 who are talking about selling them right away. What people do with their money is their own business, but it does make me sad to see what the hobby is like now.

Dollar store cheddar yakisoba got my ass, I feel deathly ill 👍

Haven't gotten around to playing it myself yet, but from what I've seen of Bubsy 4D it almost looks like its levels play sorta like Sonic Lost World? Aesthetically there's definitely some overlap. Hoping to get a copy soon, curious to see if that's actually the case.

I always really liked morphtronics. I never really WON with morphtronics, but they were a fun deck to play and I just enjoyed the designs of the monsters a lot. Transformers based on little household machines was just a fun concept.

My last job was consistent 12 hour graveyard shifts practically alone, my current one is 3-6 hour shifts working with people. Can you guess which one left me significantly more exhausted? The answer may surprise you.

I have never been to a petco where the workers seem like they want to bet there. Not judging, that line of work is exhausting and I doubt they're paid enough. It's just the only place I go to that consistently seems to have people working through misery

Man, I'd really like to see a new single player focused Yu-Gi-Oh game. I have my doubts they'll ever do another one considering how much money the online PVP model is probably raking in, but you never know. I'd pre-order a Legacy of the Duelist follow up day one.

Saying "I actually really want to play the new Bubsy game" feels fucked up and fundamentally against human instinct, but here I am.

I love community made content for games, I wrote a college thesis on video game modding at one point. It sucks to say that I think that type of content is in a VERY bad state at the moment. Every unique game mod or fun custom multiplayer mode is surrounded 10 to 1 by stolen content and genAI slop.

Surprisingly they aren't half bad. They really do taste like Dr.Pepper, it's kind of uncanny.

We grillin' tonight

Heliolisk is a Pokémon that's grown on me a lot lately. I love frilled-neck lizards and making one basically turn into a solar panel is such a fun design choice.

Great. Awesome.😐

Realized that I gravitate towards characters that absolutely wreck shit over a rabbit

Nope (2022) directed by Jordan Peele

I think it's alright to feel kinda nostalgic for when Walmart had a live fish section as long as you're also thankful it no longer has it. Because as a kid, what a vibe it was. But as an adult, oh my God those poor fish should NOT have been in a Walmart.

CW: Spider I saw SO many bold jumpers today while I was doing some yard work. Most of them bolted the second I was anywhere near them, but I managed to get pics of these guys. Even caught a 2 of them in a courtship dance, never actually seen that in person.

It's funny, "Bold" jumping spiders are easily the most skiddish species of jumper I've seen around here. Zebra and bronze jumpers are chill, but bolds turn tail and run the second they see people, sometimes from a good distance too.
