Sometimes I get really tired of where I live.

I'd love to come live in America, there's so much to experience. So many great people to meet.

And lots of things there that are more than worth crossing the pond to experience.

Rose gardens! My flower-loving butt wants some pretty florals to admire and sniff at.
Theme parks! I really wanna build up my coaster quota.
Food! Especially the spicy stuff.
The opportunity to meet the people who made Puppy Dog Pals please please oh please...

The only drawback aside from the unavoidable political stuff is some of the terrifying bugs you poor people have over there (I've never seen a cockroach outside of a zoo and I hope things remain that way)

If you do ever move to America, don't move to California. The cost of living here sucks lmao.

Oh, and the weather is all over the place. It's either blazing hot, or freezing cold, and the temperatures tend to fluctuate badly around certain (many) times of the year. You won't have to worry about tornadoes, but there's still earthquakes and we have one of the highest rates of fires in the country. We also got hit by a hurricane last year, and while nothing hit the state this Hurricane Season, I suspect it still won't be the last for a while.

Not that I plan on moving to California (ew) but speaking personally it seems one of the few places in the US where most wouldn't want to immediately shoot one of the two targets on my back

I don't think I've talked enough about how much of a flower-dork I am.

I regularly look up flower meanings and attach them to my favorite characters and ships. I draw them a lot and use them in edits. When I play video games where I need to build something, I throw in a lot of flowers for decoration.

They come in so many varieties, they're really amazing things. The only thing stopping me from getting up close and personal with flowers more often is my mortal fear of bees.

I always figured I'd be more the type to live inland if I moved to America rather than the coastal regions. Nevada and Arizona are big favorites. California would definitely be a cool place to visit, though, as would Florida

You guys should move to Canada.

Much better country. Trust me.

Nah the tropical storm that hit us last year wasn't technically a hurricane anymore when it struck. It was still dangerous but the reason it was such a big deal was because of how rare a storm like that was. When I grew up in Arizona it wasn't that crazy for a bad monsoon to force schools and businesses to close and knock down some powerlines. Did a fact check and there's only actually been 1 recorded instance of a true hurricane hitting the California coast.

And the winter isn't that cold down here in SoCal unless you're at a high elevation. The reason it feels so cold to us is because we're so acclimated to warm weather.

Now everything else is true. We get really bad fires practically every year and the cost of living here is bad - mainly because of the housing market honestly. And more people moving here only makes the housing crisis get worse. But I'm also not originally from California and moved here from Arizona (argely due to circumstance), so I'm a hypocrite. Of course the real villains of the story are landlord and real estate companies.

I’ve read so much One Piece I’m officially past Viz’s tankobon English chapters and on WSJ chapters with katakana.

Spoiler: One Piece 906

That’s it?!? That was The Treasure of Marijoa? That’s just a comically large straw hat​

I didn't know Splatoon characters had such foul mouths.

Nasty Majesty be like "NASTY! *****!"

Dolphins are also known for bullying fish. Not hunting them for food, but just mutilating them and toying with them.

It doesn't have to be the lewd stuff, just make it a cruel dolphin.

How did we get here...?

 

[Guynamednelson]

How did we get here...?

They have the brains to Live In A Society™, but not bodies that are useful for building buildings or writing books, let alone books that say it's a bad idea to do all the bad stuff that dolphins do.

So they use their highly advanced brains to...be *****.

hot damn Max. Alongside countless Cartoon Network classics, they’re really cutting Teen Titans Go from the platform.

Adventure Time, PPG, and Courage better pray they manage to stay alive

XDefiant is shutting down next year.

I dislike the trend of Live Service games

but what I hate more is the worrying trend of releasing a live service game, shutting it down immediately if it doesn't do Fortnite numbers, and laying off the devs within the same year.

 

[ZephyrZ]

How did we get here...?

It's my fault. I always have dolphins on the brain.

And whenever you bring up dolphins on the internet the conversation always turns into dolphin war crimes.

[Michael the Spikester]

I really want a Violent Night prequel!

Watching the film again as I had since last year as part of my Christmas movie tradition! This movie has become my favorite Christmas movie! I just love how its Die Hard with Santa and Santa being this former Viking warrior that's atoning for his sins! Can't wait for the sequel.

But you know what else would be better?

A prequel of how Nicomud the Red came to be Santa. Seriously Hollywood, after the sequel you gotta get on this! :D

My idea could be it had something to do with the Norse Gods as it was Odin who bestowed Nicomund the Red with immortality as he became Santa Claus to atone for his sins, and his hammer skullcrusher having been forged by the dwarf brothers Brokkr and Eitri and they're actually amongst Santa's helpers who decided to take them in at the North Pole alongside his elves after Ragnarok occurred killing the Norse Gods.

New Gundam Series named GQuuuuuuX

Hideaki Anno is involved, we could be entering peak territory

I'm really excited for Marvel Rivals coming out this weekend.

You guys excited?

Who are your favorite Marvel characters?

I don't think I have been this excited for a non-fighting game multiplayer game since Overwatch 1

I love Doom, Gwenpool, Ghost Rider, the entire Spider-man lineage, Beta Ray Bill, a lot more

In Rivals Venom, Magik and Jeff were my mains

 

[Xyro77]

I've never played a hero shooter.

If you are ok with having your character nerfed for a few months, buffed for a few months, then go through a rework (have his/her moveset substantially changed)…..you’ll love it. Oh and the devs make these changes based off of competitive base, not the casual (aka largest base).

So apparently its reportedly that Disney is already working on an Moana 3.

I'll be cautiously optimistic.

Because unlike 2, this won't be what was suppose to be an Disney+ Series that was rushed and made into a jambled mess.

Plus given its based on Polynesian mythology, there's lot of world building and lore they can explore.

Though I like 1 more, Moana 2 was great. I don’t care if part of it was a direct copy of the D+ series. Moana 3 is guaranteed since Moana 2 is going to hit 800mil or 1bil.

I'm really excited for Marvel Rivals coming out this weekend.

You guys excited?

Who are your favorite Marvel characters?

my favorite is Ironman but I hate how he plays in this game. Plus, my aim is terrible in shooters (both 3rd and 1st person) so I’ll likely use Scarlet Witch (auto aim) or a healer focused hero.


Way off topic but Hawkeye season 1 on 4k bluray came in today. Loki Season 2 4k bluray has been delayed

Imagine the Violent Night sequel introducing the Easter Bunny played by Jason Stratam. Also Sandra Bullock as the Tooth Fairy.

Also the idea of Mrs. Claus being a semi-retired valkyrie, or even crazier. She's a yuki-onna that Santa met in Japan.

The Snake pegasister arc is starting

Spoiler

It's a legit good kids show. My little sister started watching it back when it came out and I'd catch episodes because I had to keep an eye on her, and after a while I was trying to sneak episodes on my own. Much to the chagrin of my mom who used to be worried about her little boy watching girl shows.

Thankfully she's chilled out in recent years.

But yeah good show. Discord's the best pony. Give it a try.

Donkey Kong Land III was the very first video game that I ever owned. I will forever have amazing memories that I've had of this game.

And this was and still is my jam (which I prefer over its SNES counterpart).

Might I interest you in this? All of the patents to these characters expired and now random low skill low IQ studios are making horror movies out of them. A cinematic universe is being created as well.
