Family Mart dropping onigiri prices by 11 yen. This is a big reason why I trust Japanese companies more than others in general. Inflation hit Japanese products but good to see a big company LOWERING prices when they can to satisfy customers. news.jp/i/1467702517...

Caught up on All In and what a show. Love that AEW turned things around compared to 2-3 years ago. Their wrestling was always great but now their storylines are much better.

Good thing Bautista had all those angles with Rey Mysterio, he's ready to give Arteus a whooping lol
Downgrading from Ijla to Baron Corbin and Big Cass is fucking wack, and I don't even have anything against the latter two, but Ijla is just way too good to let go.
It's 2026 and we're getting the headlock over as a finisher move. God is good
Saw a mutual sharing that Chrono Trigger AI video and I've never muted someone so fast in my life
Using one hit wonder as an insult is kind of silly if you think about it. Most people have never had hits in their lives.
“If it was opt-in, nobody would opt-in.” Then why the fuck did you develop it🤬
Bruh The Weeknd playing 13 Sentinels now?! This man legit has some good taste
