Clair Obscur is *so good* I actually skipped out on watching AEW Dynamite this week because I wanted that two hours to play instead (don’t worry, AEW fam, I recorded it and I’ll watch it this weekend with my son).

I’m actually really saddened to see ‘taco’ has become a low-grade slur making fun of Trump. Tacos are *delicious* - they don’t deserve to be dragged down by association.

I could not agree more. I’ve paid for every single AEW PPV since its inception and never felt let down by the purchase. Tremendous entertainment value.

There’s a parallel universe where ‘Skull and Bones’ won game of the year.

Cannot stress enough that tonight's PPV included a match between two queer women whose storyline has them as ex lovers who were part of a messy triad and concluded with them KISSING IN THE RING BECAUSE THEY STILL LOVE EACH OTHER AFTER THE MATCH

I have ‘bodies’ by Drowning Pool stuck in my head this morning. This is @tonykhan.bsky.social ‘s fault and I may never forgive him.

It’s Hangman! Holy hell. What a match. 🤼

Fuck this match is awesome. They’re both throwing bombs, trading counters. The crowd is solidly behind BOTH men. So great. 🤼

It constantly amazes me just how clean everything Will does. Even if he botches a spot, he can adjust and tell a story with the botch itself that works within the framework of the match. He’s a true artist. 🤼

Catching up on the last two matches now. Too bad that the crowd was (understandably) dead for the Paragon/Callis trios batch because those guys busted their asses. Really decent match. 🤼

That table spot with the Bucks and Kenny was *insane*. Think if his much trust they have in each other with that. 🤼

Oh this is fantastic. This is AEW’s signature match. It’s absolute batshit, manic lunacy. 🤼

Kudos to the camera man bailing out of the way when Kenny came barreling up the ramp. That’s graceful AF. 🤼

Kenny, you’re Canadian! What are you doing!? … but the garbage can lid as the shield is pretty phenomenal. 🤼

Speedball - good Canadian kid - repping Balatro, an amazing video game by *another* good Canadian kid, Localthunk. Love it. 🤼

Good match. Suitably violent, Mark has some real solid spots, and suitably snarky W for the man affectionately known as Prickochet. 🤼

Prickochet has to win right? He’s been a revelation as a heel and deserves a big win on the PPV. 🤼

Helluva match. Really was #TeamHayter on there, but do they give Toni the first pinfall W over Mercedes at all-in now?

Mercedes sold that tombstone like she was straight up dead. Awesome. 🤼

This match started out a little slow, but hot damn, it’s on fire. I’m standing in my living room. Great stuff. 🤼

Dropped ‘Pink Pony Club’ on the soundtrack at poker night tonight. The group of 40something CIS-men (I’m the only LGBTQ+ member of the crew), after slight trepidation, ended up singing the chorus by the end. Proving that Chappell is for everyone.

‘The Pitt’ is top fucking tier. It’s beautiful and devastating. Hopeful and heartbreaking. It is… life. In all its imperceptible, undeniable bits. It is people doing their absolute best trying to make the world just a little bit better, one patient at a time.

Okay, fine. Just cause. #TeamOspreay He’s been the best in the world for a while now and it’s time they let him carry the ball (or dribble it, at any rate - his football is a little different).

Okada with the ‘bitch’ fake-out during his promo is some classic heel shit. Love it. 🤼

Decent promo by Ospreay, but an absolute knee-buckler by Hangman. My goodness - that line about all the people supporting him when he didn’t deserve it? Great stuff. 🤼

The term ‘cool’ is a hard thing to quantify. But I can say undoubtedly that Clair Obscur is one of the ‘coolest’ games I’ve ever had the pleasure to play. It’s cooler than James Dean driving a 1970 Camaro with a cigarette hanging out of the side of his mouth. Fuck it’s rad.

Hey Tony - I’m happy for Toronto and all, but don’t forget about Vancouver. When AEW wasn’t that hot, we filled 7000 people in to watch the ‘B Show’ (Collision - that wasn’t even available on regular cable in Canada at the time). Don’t sleep on us! #AEW

The Canada Post discourse annoys me a lot because a $780M “loss” in a fiscal year equates to roughly a $19/person “fee” to run it. It costs ~$30+ to ship a letter via UPS/Fedex/Purolator from Vancouver to Toronto. And that’s ignoring how much it saves both Canadian businesses and consumers money.

Rolled credits on Blue Prince this evening. What a game. As I’m sure you’ve heard, rolling credits does NOT mean you’re done - not by a long shot. But it’s a satisfying stamp on a steady build as you work to get to that point. Looking forward to exploring more, but right now I’ll just bask a bit.
