So Beast of Reincarnation (the first non pokemon game by Game Freak) is releasing today and seems to be getting a fairly poor reception. I'm seeing some discourse online about whether the dev is actually good or if they just caught lightning in a bottle with the original pokemon

Saw a clip of an interview with Christopher Nolan where he says "to be able to identify the mechanism does not invalidate the mechanism" and this resonated with me re: video games because I remember a ton of game critics doing this annoying shit where the more tropes they notice the worse a game is

not sure who needs to hear this but a huge part of the ceo grift is projecting the appearance of being constantly busy and that epstein style of writing emails like a 6 year old is a thing they all train themselves to do in order to make it look like they're so hard pressed for time

Defeating the cyclops easily by shooting him with my gun, ignoring the sirens because I'm listening to podcasts, resisting Circe's magic by reminding myself magic isn't real, defeating all my wife's suitors with 100 consecutive punches to the penis, this odyssey shit is easy

A genuinely triggering post for me because this was very depressingly my entire childhood, my parents were obsessed with Marshall's and TJ Maxx and would drag me there nearly every day, often going to like 3 or 4 stores and burning through the entire day, absolutely wretched stuff

the death of brick and mortar retail has my kids way too interested in Going Somewhere. They don't have any fear that one of us picking up our keys might mean they're going to TJ Maxx, where they'll have to stand quietly for an hour while I talk to someone I know who also happened to be there.

Tonight's late night food truck options: - Beef Chile Colorado with refried beans, rice, and poison - Pork Carnitas in poison green chile sauce with beans and rice - Vegan soy chorizo burrito with beans, poison, rice, onion, and hot sauce What are you getting?
