You know, I think I just... I really like watching/reading blind LPs of old games by people catching up years/decades after the fact, and I figure the venn diagram of folk who don't know about pokémon and sort of want to try pokémon and can write a decent LP doesn't have a heck of a lot of people in...

so i recently learned about a really fucking cool seeming pokemon crystal hack called pokemon crystal clear where they turn pokemon into an open world rpg where you can start anywhere and do things in any order and the game just scales up when you beat badges and it seems rad as fuck I'm not entire...

somebody please talk me out of doing a bunch of blind pokemon let's plays i'm getting the same twinge as i did when i started to think about dragon warrior except more inexplicable because i don't know anything about pokemon i didn't even read the various bronto pokemon lps (sorry) because i have ne...

Trust me, it's better to sound erudite than the alternative. I guess you could instead try your best to sound like a lightsaber wielding greater werewolf tiger. I still cannot believe you won as the tiger simply by calling as much attention to yourself as possible. I actually remember people discus...

Dang, this kind of shit gives us such perfect insight into part of their mindset. A hypothetical, idealized, and probably impossible, "good cop" would know that any authority he wields is granted to him collectively by the people of his community. He is not himself powerful, but the govern...

that's a broadly applicable one nowadays amirite

Dang, no Montréal show. I'm not surprised, but it would have been nice.

I'm not quite 100% clear on the kind of math that says it's more profitable to do a show in Saskatoon though.

I'm getting Eli Vance vibes from this one. I'm not sure whether that's a criticism or a compliment.

I refuse to believe Cloud is taller than Abe. My brain will not accept it.

...

Yeah Cloud is 5'8" and while Abraham's height has apparently not been established he is about as tall as Homer who is 6'.

I guess that's what I care about nowadays.

I dreamt Winston Churchill was sitting at my kitchen table. I had to convince him to eat a salad. I had a feeling he knew it was inevitable, but he certainly behaved as though he was convinced he could delay the first bite indefinitely as long as he kept finding new ways to grumble about it. After a...

https://francois.brontoforum.us/miscpic/exposure.jpg Rita, I agree with your politics and your heart's in the right place, but I'm a professional photographer and my net worth is flee-the-country dollars. If you want me to take a picture for you, you gotta pay. (It's charitable to say SWERY's caree...

Ha, yeah, I literally just saw that. More gods, presumably more playable characters (though I do know I haven't unlocked all of the ones that are already in the game so maybe those are old ones for all I know) and... fighting two enemies at once, goodness. WELCOME TO SHIOKAWA, WHERE BAD THINGS FEEL ...

And at least Maxime Bernier's still eatin' shit. He must really like the taste.

He's giving his loser's speech about tyranny and such right now, same nonsense as usual. Definition of insanity, etc. etc.

I'm kinda glad he's there just so I can watch him fail across the board again.

I want Trudeau to lose but I don't want the cost of his defeat to be an O'Toole win.

No part of this is looking great.

Authentically cyclopean!

They got some NieR in too.



Apparently Emi Evans and J'nique Nicole heard it at the same time as everybody else, which must have been a trip and a half.

"Well hey, it turns out you can serve God and Mammon at the same time! Who knew?"

I read the judge's... what's it called, sentencing memo? I found it notable because the fact that Chauvin was a police officer actually contributed to his sentence, which is how it should be at least. The prosecution argued four aggravating circumstances, and two of them were taken into account: Cha...
