combo breaker is in 2 weeks and I'm actually starting to resent it. it feels like when I was in middle school and I told my mom that I don't want to train for the spelling bee any more.

fighting game terminology is firmly established at this point, for better or worse, but I wish the fgc had settled on a different word to describe overpowered moves than "degenerate"

I should slam some melatonin if we're doing insomnia now, but the Reagents are already giving me several on-the-nose dreams

there were something awful forums moderators who were less petty and vindictive than the people running a website. I'm not gonna say which website but I'm beaming its name into your brain and we're both thinking about it

I do not care about the nintendos

when I am in a hostile unsocialized screaming attack dog having competition and my opponent is every single human being in roxborough

me in 9th edition warhammer 40k when you deploy a <CORE> unit within 12" of my blastulons and I get to spend 4 command points on 5 stratagems that triple the strength of my toughpistols and erase you from the book of life (you did not study the matchup)

eldar players on reddit are angry that their design elements get stolen and done better by space marines, and they're not wrong to be irritated, but all of this has happened before and all of it will happen again

"I am completely allistic" I say, right before you make a verbal list of things that is slightly hard for me to follow and the satsui no hado fills my body

the gift and curse of being old enough to recognize when my brain is going magpie mode over made to order Vostroyans, but I would REALLY LIKE THE JOLLY, CANDYLIKE NEW OBJECT THOUGH

hey nobody look at my hair today. you agree. 🤝

I want chicken. I’m Chicken Boy :3

my insomnia buddy tonight is vods of joel vinesauce playing voices of the void. 80% of this game is either driving an atv through the woods or joel looking at a pitch black screen and shrieking

the most stable job I've had in my life is starting to send up yellow flags so I have to figure out how to be resilient about it and also quietly relearn how to job hunt after several years

I do not NEED that big tasty rack of pro acryl paints at the new game store. I have a paint collection that is in veritable honesty a bit absurd for someone who has not lifted a brush in anger for months but what if one more bottle of color is the one that heals me

there is still like 1% of the spirit of Good YouTube trying to claw its way out of the pink slime that the site has become cause I got recommended a movie length video about HoL, the Black Dog game. will I watch it? I dunno but it's more interesting to me than the rest of the stuff I've seen

the only people left who are doing terrain projects on youtube are European Mordheim sickos, and Lord of the Rings players who have bomb collars wired to go if they ever stop making Gondor city ruins

trying to unfollow/block short form videos where it's clearly a wild animal kept as a pet, or a "rescue ranch" that amounts to the same thing

the movie Falling Down should come with the disclaimers you get when you pop in a DVD of Looney Tunes shorts with minstrel show stuff in them

I am best understood as a kind of stray familiar, doing my best

it's funny to be weeks away from a giant celebration of a weird little genre of video game, and also just exhausted with video games as a whole. I look at aftermath and kotaku and I don't want to keep putting emotional and financial energy into this pastime

fubukiVR is breathtaking. I can't believe we were all writing testament's eulogy for strive 2.00

I can tell when it's getting hot out because my cat becomes a gently spreading goo on the floor

I am best understood as a kind of stray familiar, doing my best

the danger of fighting games is getting obsessed enough to talk like goku, but daigo umehara gets a pass because he is insane in the exact specific way that created the modern competitive fighting game scene

ran into another bison main with costume 3 and I gave him a thumbs up because we had that shit on

I wonder if anyone got some real good stuff from those early pandemic blind boxes from GW. did anyone crack that thing open and get RTB01 space marines

right at the start of the Sajam Slams, you'd have brian f and jiyuna saying stuff like "don't you wanna win? just pick modern honda and go stupid girlfriend style" and being surprised when the participants came to sweat

through certain alchemical processes, I feel close to regaining my will to move about and make things I'm not there yet. slept through half of Sunday because of excess sadness in the body. but something approaches me

with no due respect, space marine players complaining about "sauceless" launch box models would not last 5 minutes in the 16 year cod lobby of watching the dark eldar model range get hacked down to fit on a postage stamp

when I realize a poster irritates me in the mildest way possible that is no judgement on them as a human, but I'm the moron following their posts

reading finance news will expose you to 1d3 radicalizing headlines per day

feeling sad tonight because I want to dress with intention for Combo Breaker but I have to do it with the body I have, not the one I want.

slept off (I hope) a wave of fatigue that has weighed me down all weekend but now it's midnight and I work tomorrow

artwork advice is funny because as soon as I step out of the engagement bait youtube world I find artists who straight up say, "start by tracing. literally copy someone else's work and then go learn fundamentals"

what if I caught up on maria no danzai

alex mains when they realize going into prowler stance at full screen makes them vulnerable to od psycho crusher

the fact that a democratic supermajority city does NOT have a library system open 7 days from morning to night is a choice and a condemnation of itself

what if one of those rock salt lamps did the trick. what if there was one silly useless object that would work and I just haven't found it yet

surely a single novelty lamp would cure my months-long burnout

nine days of coincidental magic and "which could mean nothing"

the most cursed fate of a hypothetical new darkstalkers would be to put it on the hyper realistic muscle fetish biohazard engine like street fighter 6, and enshrine the dysfunctional dlc pipeline that means giant droughts between pitiful costume drops

I'm a single issue voter (stop doing Crusade games at your local store for slow-grow leagues of warhammer)

capcom changing one frame of recovery on the most dominant character in street fighter every year

Trying to come up with $350 by the weekend to pay for my storage unit where all my stuff is while i’m still in between places.

something very affirming watching Punk at Evo Japan beefing with some dipshit on x with 6 followers
