Ok, let's move up to Fire Emblem 9: Path of Radiance. There aren't any limitations to strain against here!

Eat your heart out, Black Knight. Also, Ashnard has a ridiculous number of unique boss conversations with characters he can slaughter without breaking a sweat lol.

I....intentionally avoided posting stuff you hear in Smash Bros. I could have posted like a half dozen more, Path of Radiance has a totally baller sound track.

Is it possible to learn to split

I've been getting marginally more flexible but I'm admittedly still not very much so

I mean, probably? Yogas supposed to help with flexibility, I think.
I hope your sister is ok.

Mild (Pfizer). After shot #1, my arm hurt for the rest of the day. After shot #2, I had more arm pain and also some muscle soreness. But it only lasted for a day.

I'll let you know how I fare with my booster.

God damn you, Joe Lieberman

It wasn't him, actually: it was Max Baucus, the guy Obama chose to write the Senate bill. Baucus was a long-time industry ally. The public option only ever existed in the House version, but it was never going to happen because Obama was working with the health insurance lobby from day one.

God, what a damned waste Obama was. Not only did he do very little good, but he managed to push Biden across the finish line to insure nothing would get done that might trouble his fellow plutocrats.

I lost the small amount of interest I had when I learned there would be no voice-acting. What's the point of having all these classic cartoon characters in a video game if they don't at least have some wacky voiced dialogue? I'm aware not all the voice actors may have been available (IIRC, Nigel Thornberry's passed away), but...still. The fact there's no licensed music from the shows(or based upon them) makes it even worse. Like, a good chunk of what makes Smash so great is the atmosphere.

Holiday retail sales seem virtually certain to come in far below expectations. People are struggling, and seemingly ever-growing supply chain issues are driving up prices at a time when wages have remained stagnant, for the most part. No help seems to be forthcoming.

A woman being reincarnated as a woman shouldnt be shocking in the slightest, yes.

They could definitely get some mileage out of Illusion, perhaps. Probably not going to be worldbeaters, unless the stats are better though.

Pigma was such a douchebag

Douchebag is underselling it, lol.
Impressive how much character they managed to pack into such a limited amount of dialogue. It's not just well-acted: it's well-written. Snappy and content-rich all at once.

I'm actually going to go get my booster COVID shot Thursday. I work in a grocery store, which suddenly matters now, I guess.
I got Pfizer for the first two, so I kind of want to get Moderna or J&J: maybe mixing and matching is the secret to getting 5G and/or turning into a crocodile?

Yeah, theyre cheesy and lame, but it was perfect for that era of Sonic games and they clearly enjoy playing those songs, as demonstrated at the 30th anniversary symphony. Its fun, theyre having fun, have fun and sing along to the ridiculous lyrics.

Shadows various theme songs are great edgy cheese, to go off the beaten path.

Did you smooch on her

She came in off the clock once, all Gothed up. I was so spellbound I didnt realize I was staring at her until she glared at me. I blushed and finally looked away from her Gothic magnificence.
Shes a lesbian, so it could never have happened before. Way out of my league anyway. Sweet too: she didnt hold a grudge.

Are black trans people more oppressed for being black or being trans? Those things effect one's life in very different ways, like police interaction for instance...That's the dark hole your thinking leads to, stop it. He's rich, it's all punching down at that point and it's hilarious just the same.

Yeah, that's intersectionality.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ViDtnfQ9FHc
I'll let Professor Crenshaw explain the concept she defined. But for those who don't want to watch, oppression due to various social factors (e.g. race, class, gender, gender expression, sexuality, etc.) overlaps and reinforces itself, so that, for example, the transphobia black trans people experience is even worse than that experienced by white trans people(because it gets to combine and be influenced by race, at minimum).

Dave Chapelle, of course, has no interest in learning or growing.

i get that, thats okay. i am like that as well. ive been in a relationship before but now i am mentally not doing too well and its better not to burden anyone with that while i start working on getting better lol

It's good though. I'm hatching, and lesbians won't expect me to behave like a dude, which will make things easier.

Thanks for your support EV. Rare tuna though????

Yeah. We're talking a fresh tuna steak here, which is a whole different world from the canned stuff. Rare tuna has a nice crust of cooked tuna on the outside and a firm, ruby pink, sushi-like interior.
You literally can't get it higher than medium, otherwise it's just a brick of chalky white fish.

That a girl! Remember: tunas the same way. In fact, you should get it rare.

Thatta girl

I'll share another story, that took place yesterday, on Saturday: an objectively superior day.
Yesterday was the last day of one of the florists who had been there years, and they had a cake for her(and I got to just chill in the conference room chatting and eating cake for a good 15-20 minutes risk-free. It owned) and one of the team leaders tells the florist, "You know, you would be welcome back any time. You would even have your pick of teams." And enby coworker just turns to the florist and blurts out, "Don't come back." Because Whole Foods freaking sucks mang.

It was so hard not to burst out laughing. I love him. She's a warrior, and they're one of those enbies that likes all the pronouns.

She/her

Because they're protesting getting screwed over? Because they got screwed over, whereas I'm 99+% sure the suits who drove the company into the ground made out just fine.

My enby coworker is always saying "Sunday FUNday!"
Well, not always, and they're saying it ironically, because Sunday sucks.

Ill definitely go to a salon for my eyebrows, at some point in the nearish future. Once Im OUT-out. I have plenty of women I can ask about that sort of thing, and a friend who might even be able do it(she has a cosmeticians license in New York).

Really? I feel bad for yall. I can taste the entire range of flavors beer has to offer.
Perhaps you can enjoy cilantro for me.

thats understandable guys. smoky eyes are hard to get right.

Yeah, the Julius fight in Aria of Sorrow is really well-done. You have to be really mindful of positioning if he corners you with Cross Crash, RIPat least your potions. Theres a lot of different things to dodge, and the AI seems to do a pretty good job of deciding how to attack.

Dawn of Sorrow actually has something similar:
The final boss of that games Julius mode is Soma as Dracula. Soma doesnt even finish his wine, proving himself a most unworthy vessel.

MM3 has both Hard Man and Top Man

probably two of the dirtiest RMs ever made

edit: oh yeah, AND Snake Man

yeesh

I will not have you besmirch the name of Top Man, who is suffering because there is no Bottom Man. Or Yoyo Woman?

Man, poor Splash Woman, she must feel so awkward at robot master mixers. Shes literally the token girlbot.

Great idea: Bending Man! Hes definitely NOT Bender Bending Rodriguez and not trying to rob Dr. Wiley and/or Mega Man!

I'm sure Hollywood wants to reboot it desperately. And Nightmare on Elm St. too, of course.
The problem is is that suits are increasingly pushing for kind of deriavative, by-the-numbers type films, and these old horror monsters would work best with some one whose creative and has the freedom to do new and interesting things with them rather than a rote, paint-by-the-numbers reboot. The classic films are right goddamned there, no need to retread that ground for the umpteenth time.

Ah, you've reminded me that I wanted to read him. I've also been meaning to re-read the Analects of Confucius and the Dao De Jing/Tao Te Ching. Have a handy little pocket-size dealie with both of them in it.

Always loved BoJack Horseman's opening.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQvIR1oL1vE
It really captures a feeling of depression and stagnancy.

It also varies within seasons and the backgrounds change radically with each new season.
And they do really clever things with them. I love the touch of the Horsin' Around poster, because that always features prominently.
*major spoilers*
And Sarah Lynn specifically haunts the opening in Seasons 4 and 5.
