My face when I see people having their switch 2 pre-orders cancelled and Best Buy messages me asking if I’m excited for the Switch 2:

I just realized I need to make space to set up the switch 2. Switch days are almost gone.

The new Pokemon Scarlet and Violet convinces me that Game Freak should have waited until the Switch 2 to release it. Instead, they should have relied on existing Pokemon games already released and add additional content.

Does the comp Splatoon scene do a good enough job to create new top level players? Whose responsibility is it? Should it be anyone’s responsibility? How would it be done?

The SendouQ major was fun to watch. Thoughts during groups: - The day Moonlight gets that wild run will be insane and much deserved - Healthy diet is the fun oddball that can keep other teams in check - Hypernova, big props to Datkid and Lexi in how much they’ve improved over the years.

Skill is not the only thing that influences whether you get to top level in any sport, including e-sport. It plays a big role but without including discussion about resources and luck, it doesn’t capture the whole picture.

I don’t know how someone can continue to be a part of the Splatoon Twitter space with the most recent (& ongoing) harassment against a TO. Maybe not even just be a part of the space but be so apathetic towards it. Idk, it’s just weird.

AHHH SWITCH 2 IS ALMOST HERE!!! Here are the four games I will likely be playing in the first year of the switch 2. It is honestly 2017 all over again.

I had a fun time at Momocon.

Not my videos but someone else’s Splatoon video

Switch 1 is coming to an end. I’ve bought so many games and I have played the majority of them. Here is my ranking of each Nintendo exclusive. *if a game is not here (e.g. Xenoblade, Bayo 3), it’s because I never bought/owened it.

I like Walker but the argument that he should be Cap instead of Sam is flawed when you ask this what-if scenario: “Would Walker, as Captain America, sign the Sokovia Accord?” Walker is a soldier who did not question authority. Steve & Sam are people 1st, soldiers 2nd, who questioned authority.

There’s something off about competitive Splatoon. After watching/playing it for the last couple of years, something just does not click for players or spectators.

Catching up with old Splatoon teammates about stuff that has been happening in the last 9 months. I am so lost.

Finally finished Fire Emblem Engage. I think this game and Three Houses are both great. I prefer Engage, probably because of the engage mechanic. As for my favorite characters, I’d say Ivy, Celine, Chloe, Diamant, Lapis, and Timerra were my favorite characters. Time to play Astral Chain!

My hypothesis is that when Dr. Strange looked at 14 million different realities in Infinity War, he only saw 1 outcome where Thanos AND Tony died. I think he wanted Tony to die a hero because if Tony lived…he would continue to obsess over the multiverse and become Doom. It still happened though…?

I’m graduating in about a month from my masters program. Aside from the alumni network and established connection to Los Angeles, I think the program was a let down. However, I did need the break from work. I’m excited to go back to state government or find opportunities in county government.

I honestly miss MCU phase 2 fandom. Just a bunch of fans enjoying the films. Big enough to enjoy a community but still small enough to not have the toxic fans in the community. It’s one of the reasons I like Splatoon. It’s the best shooter game that most shooter player fans will never play.

Thunderbolts* was a good movie.

Watched Eternals for the 2nd time & while my opinion of it improved, I still think it’s the worst MCU film. Good visuals & characterization of Druig, Sersi, Kingo & Thena, & cool Makari v Ikaris scene. But the story, MCU connection, & explanation for no involvement in Thanos invasion was poor (1/?)
