Brief as it was, #Digimon Beyond was everything I wanted in a Digimon Adventure sequel series. From the brief snippets of characterization and the updated designs... much more so than the morose portentousness of Tri. and Kizuna. Hopefully they do more with it and we treat it like an alt. timeline.

That feeling when a military coup is starting to feel like the only possible salvation from the madness that's befalling us.

It is repugnant. Beyond repugnant. There are no words.

personally would be cool to hear democrats say they will not stand for rule by executive order

We're now in our obstruction era. We have to be. I hope Democrat politicians get the damn memo.

Warmed my cold, cold heart seeing how vociferously Hulk Hogan was rejected by the WWE fans in LA. Hopefully management takes note and realizes nobody wants or needs to see him in 2025.

The New Superman excites me. The casting looks particularly spot on. Hoping for good things coming for the DC folks.

Read Baudelaire as we landed in Paris. Had a minor 'tistic tantrum trying to figure out the metro while under physical duress. Bit into a chocolate croissant that's given me the power to push through the jetlag. For now.

I'm Zooey here.

As a forever DM/GM, we need this.

Just want to highlight my favorite new Shonen Jump series Ultimate Exorcist Kiyoshi. It's a terrific send-up of the recent exorcist manga fad with excellent comedy and kinetic action (unsurprising from one of Eichiro Oda's former assistants). Do give it a read if you like action comedies like I do.

Can't believe I'll be going on my first transatlantic flight since I did my study abroad in college back in...2007? Paris awaits. And many, many delicious croissants.

Easy for me to say, perhaps, since Souls games aren't my jam, but DLCs and Expansions should probably have their own category. I don't think Erdtree should be nominated, or win, over FF7 Rebirth, Metaphor:Re Fantazio, or Astro Bot. That's my lukewarm take #GameAwards2024

10 (live action) TV shows to get to know me: 1. Arrested Development 2. Interview with a Vampire 3. Succession 4. The X-Files 5. Parks and Recreation 6. The Good Place 7. WandaVision 8. Agatha All Along 9. Fleabag 10. Girls5Eva

I'm a bit leery to wade into the Dragon Age: The Veilguard discourse but I'm having fun with it. You can definitely feel the absence of certain atmospheric and lore elements, but the team behind the game also got a lot right. A mixed bag to be sure, but one I'm enjoying.

Something for the good ol' algorithm: Video Games I live by! 🎮Final Fantasy 🎮FFXIV 🎮FFVII Remake/Rebirth 🎮Kingdom Hearts 🎮Pokemon 🎮Stardew Valley 🎮Baldur's Gate 3 🎮Persona 🎮Metaphor Re:Fantazio 🎮Bioshock 🎮Spider-Man 🎮Psychonauts 🎮Cassette Beasts 🎮Xenoblade Chronicles 🎮The Sims 🎮Horizon Zero Dawn

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Just to introduce myself, some things I am currently enjoying: -Anime: Dandadan, Ranma 1/2 remake -Shows: Survivor (good season), Agatha All Along (the MCU at its best), Drag Race UK (maybe the best UK season...ever?) -Games: BG3 (??th playthrough) -Tabletop: Kids on Brooms (upcoming game)

Finally deactivated Twitter. Enough of that. Hi, Bluesky!
