cool pickup from a cool little game shop today

Dragon Quest Monsters is prety good, look at this wretched and despondent creecher that joined my party

What do you MEAN more senior developers will just teach me things?? This is my first time working for a company where the Staff Engineers actually do the mentorship thing, I always thought that was a myth. I am abt to become so much stronger at this job.

Massachusetts is actually a beautiful state, very much appreciating this little stay in central MA.

It’s the 20th anniversary of the Brawl trailer. Has me feeling reflective abt my time in the smash scene. Basically I wish I knew about & was medicated for the bipolar back then, I think it would’ve made me more fun to be around. Wild way to spend my early 20s tho, lucky to have had the experience.

Muzak was invented for grocery stores and elevators but did you know it also makes incredible Focus-at-Work music

very good advice from the Dragon Warrior Monsters instruction booklet

Put DQ Monsters (1998) on NSO pls

I finally got Air Riders and it is very good!!

No new swift architecture can scare me, I spent 2 and a half years working in VIPER

The thing abt doing pixel art is that if you zoom in on a sprite and stare at it for long enough, no matter how good it is, it WILL start to look wrong to you #pixelart

Found out today for the first time that Primal Groudon is part Fire-type.

A Standing Ovulation

My idea of what a “cool job” is has rly changed as I’ve gotten older and I’m pretty sure I have a cool-ass job right now.

1000 x Resist

The very first thing I am doing when I get paid is getting my meds back, sure. But the very second thing is I’m buying Legends ZA.

Corporate Office Boy Day 1

Graham Cracker would be an incredible drag name

"No puns during business hours" is one of my longest standing bits to the point I sometimes forget it was just something arbitrary that i made up and not an actual real social guideline

Will i manage to recruit a Simisear before i get Legends ZA and can therefore just import one? Who can say??? #pokemonchampions

Clothes shopping used to be hell for me because nothing fit the way I wanted it to. Now, I find it super motivating, because even if things don’t fit perfectly, I can see how close I’m getting to my goals.

Massachusetts has welcomed me back with its most ironic Grey And Overcast weather. U never realize how much u can miss that.

Culver’s is absolutely unbeatable fast food. Head and shoulders above every other fast food chain.

Whatever holds up the front passenger side wheel on my car gave out on the interstate. Shoutouts to the drivers behind and to the right of me, their good reflexes probably saved my life!!

Nebraska is a procedurally generated state

Loading up for the move is going rly well. The Baja is really earning the title of Truck with how much shit I can fit in it.

giving Parabolic Charge to Mega Ampharos is so funny because it has mold breaker so it can't even get cheeky standing next to someone with Telepathy or Volt Absorb or something

Incin is busted and somehow these fells are on a 5-game win streak

accepting, unfortunately, that i WILL need to use Incineroar on the team if i wanna make Mega Chesnaught Trick Room work :/

not only did they not give emolga any new moves, but they also took tailwind away from it? A lot of mons really are just here to fill that recruit lineup arent they. That little fella deserves better.

Mega Zam Psyspam is so much easier to win with than Mega Chesnaught Trick Room, like I was working WAY too hard earlier.

I feel like the launch roster for champions was the perfect time to include the worse weather setters (Abomasnow, K-9, Politoed, gigalith) and leave out the better ones (A-9, Torkoal, Peilipper, Ttar). Let them be played for a while. IDK, lots of missed opportunity here. #pokemonchampions

I just had a game in champions where a Sylveon's quick claw activated 4 times in a row and then on the fifth turn it got a double crit. Arceus doesnt want me in doubles.

one thing i do not like about #PokemonChampions is that it's giving me bot matches after a single loss. I'm trying to learn to play the game here, let me lose repeatedly.

Pokémon Champions is an extremely mixed bag right now. Really it’s just the item situation I find inexcusable. There’s some good changes mixed in here (unseen fist is heavily nerfed for example) but this is a ROUGH start.

Mega Gallade doesn't get Sharpness. I sleep.

Wow i literally cannot get Chesnaught's mega stone unless i transfer a Chesnaught caught in ZA from home to Champions?? Like I can't just buy it or anything?? #pokemonchampions

planning to fall into the Electivire noob trap in champions tomorrow (trying to use him as a redirector bc he resists Flying and chesnaught hates Flying)

Is mega ampharos really THAT bad??? Probably. But I made her work for my brief time in Gen 6 smogon singles and I will make her work again in champs.

There’s gotta b a good team in here somewhere #pokemon #pokemonchampions

the Pokemon Home background music always reminds me of Jolly Roger Bay / Dire Dire Docks, there has to be a siivagunner rip of this

Seems like, between Violet and Sword, i can get every pokemon available in Champions (that we know of). I still want ZA though, because it looks fun.

apparently i paid for the premium plan on pokemon home sometime ago? shoutouts to past me i guess.

i should probably figure out my Pokemon Champions team huh

hotels r booked for The Big Drive, it is real and happening and wowie i am goin' home baybeeee

i just really think there HAS to be a connection between the silent c in "Czar" and the name "Caesar"

with where im likely to move, Street Fighter 6 might b the most accessible Organized Play thing i can get into. So i'm gonna have to remember how to play Lily.

Got my official start date for da new job. Now all i have to do is drive almost the entire length of the country in abt 2 weeks and im golden.

Galaxy movie was exactly on par with the first one, which is a good thing. No licensed music this time. Good/10

i wonder if pokemon champions will let u crossdress or if ill have to pick a girl trainer
