I say this to myself every week but seriously. One Piece is so freakin' good. ♡

When you're fighting the Ghost of Starman enemies in EarthBound, their action for a turn will sometimes be "..flashed a menacing smile." Itoi. These dudes have no mouths. How are they smiling?

Damn. That day off of work threw me off so much on what day it was that I opened up the Jump app thinking there was a new chapter of One Piece waiting for me.

Me when I defeat the Plagued Rat boss battle in EarthBound in the first round of combat.

I've started doing a drinking game while watching true crime videos of child predators being arrested. I have had to abolish my "take a shot any time you see the accused/arrested predator wearing or having anything showing their support of Trump" rule because of how often it is a thing.

A new Defunctland that's over 4 hours long?

Now to play EarthBound for the millionth time.

Finished Dragon Quest 2 2D-HD. Perfect example of how remakes should he done. Nothing but praise. Well worth playing through in chronological order. The True Ending was chef's kiss.

Modok doodle, he’s just so absurdly goofy that I can’t NOT like him ✏️🧠🤯⚙️

Just heard a Karen utter the words, "peek-oh-day-gallow" and use them seriously as if myself and others are pronouncing it incorrectly. No, this was not a bit. I would say we're cooked but if they're fucking up words like that? We're all undercooked and made to be left-overs. -.-*

How confused Magic the Gathering players must be seeing so many posts tearing down MTG. Something something she plays an all white deck.

*takes long drag off cigarette, flicks it into the gutter* listen kid, i remember when websites were hosted in comp towers bought from craigslist and stored in literally closets with someone's grandma's desk fan pointed at it, but it was maintained by someone who gave a shit

Never forget that "newly sane" Greene spoke out against the existence and funding for PBS because "they are pro-crime" and "un-American". Do not lionize or uplift her. She's said what she thinks of actual Americans numerous times, particularly about those struggling the most. So, she can rot.

Y'know the thing about a Funko Pop, they've got... lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a shark's eyes.

When you prioritize the opinions of the rich we are all poorer for it.

Can we PLEASE stop interviewing CEOs or anyone in wealth on their opinions of what is happening with our economy when the people most affected by it are the single parents, kids, and anyone working a job that makes less than $80k anually? None of the former actually understand the plight. NONE.

As always, all I'll say about The Game Awards is if it was serious about celebrating the global industry and not, like, four countries, it wouldn't skew jury seats to outlets from Anglophone countries. Dunno why other outlets bother when their votes for anything locally relevant get drowned out. 🤷

If you ever wish to understand how rough it is out there currently or how literacy is seemingly dead, ask a trans woman with a Grindr account how many messages they get a day from men who send them dick pics or "wya?" without reading their profile first.

Damn. Did I miss the One Piece Comic Calendar 2026 ordering window? All I can find is ads for it being advertised as a Mugiwara Store pre-order exclusive.

I encourage everyone in this gaming community to save money where they can and make choices based upon what you like and not what others like. Demos are a great resource to use before making a gaming purchase. Subscription services can be handy as well if you’re on the fence. 👌🏻

The added narratives and cutscenes, particularly with the return to Castle Charlock, in Dragon Quest II are so phenomenal. Minor no-named characters have been fleshed out and add so organically to the story, I'm jealous of anyone having this as their 1st experience with II.

Me: I’m gonna say this so gently, but COD is a known propaganda arm for US hegemony and has ties to the CIA, Abu Ghraib and many others -please don’t be mad at me- COD: makes a “jokey” ad about TSA violating passengers‘ rights and thinks we won’t notice because a white man is getting harassed. 🙂🙃

Give a man a fish and someone with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about people getting free handouts. Teach a man to fish? Yeah, that person with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about that too.

Wild to me that there's a whole set of people within my generation that cannot seem to comprehend that way I say I cannot afford to buy a plane ticket (not that I would want to right now) or afford to go out to eat, they look at it as a failure on my part or that I'm making it up.

“Now I believe we ought to do all we can and seek to lift ourselves by our own bootstraps, but it’s a cruel jest to say to a bootless man that he ought to lift himself by his own bootstraps” - Dr. Martin Luther King

"Pull yourself up by your boot straps," they say. "I had to sell my boots to afford food," I reply.

This, but at least COBRA admitted when they lost, never groped kids, and seemed to have more than two working brain cells among them with a leader who could actually close a deal.

When people said this whole administration feels like COBRA from GI Joe won, it really is a rogues gallery of everyone I already hated.

Happy 10th, you magnificent freakshow. #TheFinalPam

Grown men keep coming up to me, big burley men, Staten Island's finest, tears in their eyes. "I can handle a lot," they say to me weeping "but I'm terrified about a mayor who wants free childcare and affordable housing."

You know how we keep catching the right projecting? Like how there have been so many of them screaming "TRANS PEOPLE ARE EVIL!" only for them to be arrested and their computers are seized with TONS of CP and gigs of content of the sort of adult performers they deem evil? Hmm.. Makes ya' think.

I went digging through some old prints and remembered this River City Girls piece from a while back 👊💥😵 #art

I want to see an American Gods story, but with commercial and cereal mascots fighting against the rise of "influencers". Imaging Mr. Beast being defeated by a contingent of Captain Crunch, the GEICO Gecko, and Flo: The Progressive Girl, makes me laugh really hard.

I do not think we need a strong child-molesting party

This should read: White House caught in the act of trying to bribe Lauren Boebert to vote against releasing the Epstein files. l.smartnews.com/p-6zCSBy8w/b...

Ghislaine Maxwell lied about Trump never going to Epstein's house (directly contradicted by her email correspondence with Epstein), and she was rewarded for that lie with a transfer to a cushier prison. The coverup is happening in plain sight.

I like my government like George Castanza likes his diner drinks: No ICE.

If I have to meet ONE more person with the personality of a Tumblr Post or someone who speaks entirely in memes, I'm going to beat myself over the head until I'm unconscious with a Harlem Shake video.

Move over Miles' Artbook. We've got a new meme format.

This is pretty wild. ArtDink is responsible for some really weird but wonderful swings. I cannot recommend supporting this enough. If you're interested in getting a glimpse, check out Dungeon Chill on YouTube. They've done the people's work to play through some of their older titles.

I'm curious about how good of a chess player Eiichiro Oda is. Why you ask? Because my dude is arranging pieces and seemingly thinking 20 steps ahead.

Note to self: just because you CAN use isopropyl alcohol for after shave, doesn't mean you should. No, it isn't going to make you tough, if the screams you make after application are any indicator.

Years ago a friend swung into a post I made being excited about the 1st look at BotW with a "Awful. Nintendo needs to stop making games for babies." My pal Bill, who rarely posted, appeared with the single response, "you're a ding dong." That's how I feel whenever I see people defending AI.

What we needed: A useful index of all human knowledge, easily usable to go right to the source. What we got: A medicore redditor that read every wikipedia page with marginal comprehension and really wants you to like them.

Read every word & share with everyone you know. This is real life here in Chicago. Americans need to know this grotesque reality & stand with us.

Who else remembers a few years ago when the Jujutsu Kaisen movie made almost 200 million at the box office and the dub cast got like $300 tops
