Why have I been saying the full phrase "command grab" all these years like a sucker, it takes so long, so many mouth muscle movements. The better contraction is so obvious: Command + gRAB = CRAB. I crabbed em. Ya got crabbed. You got a real big crab problem buddy. Quit gettin crabs all the time

I have returned back home! Traveling to Japan for the first time was a very eye-opening experience. I'm glad I was able to be there for the first #TEKKEN 8 champion and support my friends at the Last Chance Qualifiers. Looking forward to our community plans for 2025! #TWT2024

I had an OB/GYN check-up today. I scheduled it a while ago. I was due. Anyways, I’ve decided to talk about what was a pretty emotionally poignant visit because it feels worth sharing. 🧵

Me at a drug screening Nurse: "How long have you been wanting to be a nursing student?" Me: For a while! Just the pandemic yknow NP: "It must've been hard applying out of high school." Me: oh I'm 26 NP: "..." Me: I have a bachelors... NP: "...oh"

Thank you everyone for the support 100 weeklies. Truly a huge shoutout to the Versus team for letting us host for nearly 2 years We will have plenty of setups for casuals & bracket. We will also bring some PS4 Pros for UNI/melty casuals for anyone going to CON6 this weekend. start.gg/JV

TOs and bracket runners, I beg your assistance. Do you have experience running "low/mid level" brackets? How would you qualify it? Something like [anyone can enter, but if you win, you can't enter anymore]? How can we reintegrate the winners into the activity making it a cycle of improvement?
