My dad is like this. He doesn't give a fuck. It pisses me off to no end since my mom has been extremely diligent in taking all the right precautions and staying in doors, but that doesn't help much if my dad is out there pretending he's too good for this. They're both in their early 70s now so like... yeah.

Im slowly turning into a fatass as I grow older.

This sounds like a perfectly reasonable weight, if not too skinny, wtf.

Can you be the face of a franchise with a design as inconsistent and generic as Chris'? I feel like there's a slight difference between being the main character/protagonist of a series and the face of that series.

I can only recall two, and both are at least seven years old. The first was when I told darkx he lived in an anime (back when that was a thing), the second was for bypassing a censor because a YouTube link had the word "shit" in it.

I bought a rather rare vinyl record that was only ever pressed in Portugal in the 80s, so I had it shipped here. It either never arrived or, most likely, it was stolen. Still pissed about it.

Considering my commute was upwards to an hour, I miss absolutely nothing about going to the office. I'd happily never return.

I do want the world to open up but I think I've concluded that I could do my job perfectly fine remotely. I do miss everything else pre-lockdown.

I truly cannot believe someone thinks this show has ever been anything but total garbage. Sometimes enjoyable garbage, but garbage when it all comes down to it. Even my friend who watches every terrible CW show in existence knows it's trash through and through.

I can't imagine replaying the original GBC games since they are truly outdone by HG/SS in every single way except for the female trainer's design and the music. Not that the updated sounds are necessarily bad, but there's something incredible about how tracks like National Park sound.

I loved these games to death but it's a lot of nostalgia talking. I'll never forget the story of Iwata himself making it possible for Kanto to exist in G/S by freeing up space on the cartridge. I think that about says it with the game; I find it so inspired and so beautiful. It's a time when Pokemon was on the height of its popularity and simultaneously they were actually ambitious enough to make something unforgettable for the sake of the player. Johto itself could've done the job, but adding Kanto, seeing the passage of time, being able to fight all the gym leaders, and of course, the Kanto champion, are highlights for me not just in Pokemon, but in gaming in general. I remember everyone complaining about Lavender Town becoming "good" but to me it was the ultimate expression of the passage of time. The way they made me feel so much from visiting a town that I visited in another game was something I had never experienced in gaming.

I also feel like Johto has so many cool locations. Ecruteak, Ruins of Alph, Goldenrod City, the National Park with the bug-catching contest, returning to the very starting point of the game so you can surf to Kanto - there's a lot there that was exciting. I haven't played the game in forever, but I do remember the wild Pokemon being severely underleveled in Kanto which made it kind of annoying. I won't train that level 3 Houndour to level 50+ or whatever it is I am at by the time I reach Kanto, you know?

This is all through the lens of a nine year-old. I don't know what my reaction would've been like as an adult. But I replayed HG/SS this year and I thought it was a fantastic game, so I'll go ahead and assume the foundation for something wonderful also exists in GSC.

edit. I might as well add that knowing Kanto is also in the game kind of spoils the game a lot, though. I can't imagine doing without that twist.

"Did you know what you have just done!?
You took your first step on Kanto! "

This game's level design will always be timeless, imo. Of course the passage of time has improved some technical aspects compared to what was a vanguard of 3D platforming, but the foundation of this game remains brilliant.

No games for now (I did just get Xenoblade though!), but I'm currently waiting for:

• My monthly vinyl from a membership club.
• A Topo fleece jacket I got at a super sale they had. Seemed perfect for hiking.
• Cookies N Cream ground coffee.
• A Jeff Rosenstock vinyl collection plus the No Dream pre-order.

Actually, just remembered I'm still waiting for the physical version of Wonderful 101 remastered from their Kickstarter, but I think it got delayed until July or something? There's that!

I picked 1 because it has the bigger gap between Winter Soldier and Captain Marvel. Considering the former is excellent and the latter is pretty bad, this seemed as good a way to make a decision as any.

I'm going to be the skeptic that thinks they had to reschedule for internal reasons but found it a better idea to get some positive PR by saying they cancelled it due to current events and are being respectful than to say "whoops we need to delay".
