A man getting rich off industrialized murder only to ultimately end up dead himself acts as a grim prognostication of the American prophecy as a whole.

Registration for World’s 2026 has been delayed for over a month and even though I’m signed up for email notifications every once in a while I get scared that they opened registration and sold out without me noticing lol (they haven’t)

I think this is the first time since Emerald that I’m not getting a Pokémon game on launch day lol. I’m planning on getting a Switch 2 next month and wanna wait to play it on there.

It’s the 13th anniversary of Adventure Time’s “I Remember You.” A very popular kids cartoon revealing two years in that the goofy main villain is a dementia allegory should not have ever worked on paper but this remains one of my favorite episodes of television ever.

Finished my Arven page!

Alright no more dead Pim. I didn’t realize I’d back-to-back Pim posted.

At a family gathering talking about movies and my mom casually mentions that Spielberg was about my age when he made Jaws and I just spent the rest of the evening sitting in the corner of the living room like this

I played the One Piece TCG with my friend the other day and it’s great. I know nothing about One Piece and he knows nothing about TCGs so we kinda filled in the blanks for each other. It’s honestly one of the most solid TCGs I’ve ever played which is impressive considering it’s only a few years old.

First day back at college. Hell yeah! Let’s do this!

I played Borderlands 4 till 2 am. It’s alright.

Fuck everything.

Predators, Cannibalism and Little Red Riding Hood:

It’s out! I got to voice Marcel Duchamp in @conray.bsky.social ‘s debut video essay! youtu.be/qygo9zw0E-0?...

They will announce Pokémon Colosseum 2 during the Nintendo Direct.

I don’t wanna take him outta the sleeve to get a real picture but I got this guy in a pack today!

Went to my first card show and had a lot of fun.

53-year-old afraid of cgi lesbians.

Amazing pull today

Announcement: I do not like this thing. I find it to be no good. That is all. Thank you for listening.

Predators, Cannibalism and Little Red Riding Hood:

The purpose of fairy tales

Epigenetics and intergenerational trauma:

Gonna dust off the YouTube channel with a short. Here’s a screenshot from it.

Debuting my French accent soon.

*young me, developing a strong sense of justice* This is gonna be great, what an asset, this will never drive me insane

Although I’m against fedoras on principle, I like the trainer designs for Z-A. Fun fact: this marks the first time in a mainline Pokémon game where the female playable character has pants that go below the knee. The fact that the pants are inexplicably bell bottoms rocks. Give them to the boy too.

Going through old school papers and found a review of Pokémon Diamond I wrote when I was nine. I might have to post it here. It was a glowing yet measured analysis.

She’s so relatable

The script for my “short” Pokémon video is approaching eight pages

Unfinished thumbnail for upcoming video. It’s been a lot of fun so far

I’m so excited to get started on making videos again. I have three I wanna get done this summer and one of them is about Pokémon!!!

Anyone want gum?

Would it be cheating if I made one of my final papers into a video? lol

School’s out for the summer.

I’m gonna be on here more soon! School has been crazy and I’m going to a big event I have to get ready for but in two weeks, both will be over. AND I’ll finally be able to start making my own YouTube videos again.

I got cards graded by PSA for the first time. Wanted to post my thoughts on here but after the thread became too long I realized I should maybe just make a video about it on a second YouTube channel I might make later in the summer.

“The original Lilo and Stitch had anti-colonialist commentary. What happened?” What happened is Disney colonized Hawaii.

*Dracula Flow voice* “We’re smokin’ seven thousand dollar Yurple Tang, you stupid pieces of shit.”

Ian’s content has fundamentally shifted the trajectory of my life for the better. Got me reading books, reigniting my love of learning and even inspired me to create my YouTube channel and start writing video essays. I’ve taken college courses because of the passion this guy stirred in me.

Living my best life in Spring (having allergic sneezing fits all night from spending two minutes outside taking out the trash)

Ordered something from a Japanese company a while ago and the tariffs kicked in RETROACTIVELY less than a day before it arrived at my door. The tariffs combined with shipping turned my $20 order into a $140 order

The past two weeks have been insanely busy and chaotic but I think things have calmed down to the point where I can actually be on here more now.

This literally ties perfectly into my next video.

POKÉMON COLOSSEUM ON SWITCH 2 THIS IS NOT A DRILL

Fuck Cyndaquil, I guess.

So tragic. I grew up watching her in Ice Princess and 17 Again. She was such a charming, heartfelt performer. Rest in peace.

Trying to shift gears and write a new project after working on the same video for months is so strange. I feel like I completely forgot how to write things that aren’t that video.

Happy 20th anniversary to the greatest television show of all time
