Big Garf

I’ve also always wanted to see Olympic level backpedaling. Maybe it’s like the fact that I did Triple Jump back in the day or just the video game-y part of my brain but I love seeing weird things get optimized like that.

It would add a really strange bit of precise technique to optimize: how close/far over the turn around line do they make the pivot? (almost like the board in LJ/TJ) how would a super fast runner who’s bad at turn around fair against a slower runner with perfect technique? How much would it matter?

In swimming turning around is an essential technique, gives extra momentum, and looks graceful in action. In sprinting turning around would be really messy. If there’s a wall there could be some weird jumping/pushoff. But without one it would require weird control and jerkiness.

Very random thought. But I always thought it would be cool to see high level running/sprinting with some sort of turning around like in swimming.

Doing that thing where I get way too invested in my April fools video and ignore my main videos a lil too much.

My guess is Monolith based on the textures (and the fact that they always help out with big open world games for Nintendo) or lowkey Bandai based on the water (game looks pretty close to New Pokemon Snap to me). If Gamefreak actually did this without another studio I’d be flabbergasted.

I can’t even begin to imagine the pure feeling of bliss early 2000s cereal mascots must have gotten from diving into a the milk bowl of a delicious part of a balanced breakfast.

The Twitter clips when that game launched were generational. Any other series releasing a game in that state would’ve gotten slammed, but bc it was pokemon it was record breaking sales lol. Excited for what looks like a long overdue step towards modern performance.

I mean I’m sure there will still be issues, but this is the first time on modern hardware where I’ve seen a trailer for a Pokemon game and the visuals weren’t distractingly bad. Like best first impression they’ve given in a long time imo.

Like if I were to really nitpick I’d say the lighting looked a little strange in places, but honestly it just looks nice overall.

Obviously hard to tell if performance will be good, but honestly even S/V trailer showed the awful performance in trailers lol. Wondering if Gamefreak finally got a team to help them or if they just actually locked in.

Ok I’m a huge modern Pokemon hater but winds and waves actually look like polished video games. Genuinely surprised.

🫡 definitely used to be a top tier emoji for me, but recently I’ve been more of a 🍻 kind of guy

I think I just recorded my YouTube Magnum Opus and no ones going to be able to watch it until like a year from now lmaoo

Even if AI stops using emdashes the damage is already done. Public perception of the emdash has never been worse. All AI does is take, man.

I hate AI for taking emdashes from me, man. It’s basically the Swiss Army knife of punctuation, just works for pretty much any situation.

Like multiple English professors would tell me to actively use them more in my writing. Now they are just reduced to a bot indicator. Actually tragic downfall.

I think getting hit by a big rock in Overwatch is one of the most visceral feelings in gaming.

Sigma’s been in the game for like 7-8 years or something and I still feel like I get hit in real life every time it hits me.

Ubers Golbat clearly had the math figured out to survive with one health and aura farm 🔥

Have been wanting to make like a big kart racer vid with all the new ones that came out recently and have lowk been holding off until this comes out…

Karting of BanBan 2026 release

I think I might be one of the only people on earth that cares about Karting of BanBan getting quietly delayed from 2025 release to 2026 with no updates at all. What is going on with this game?

Never skeet into the void asking for art recommendations THEY will find you…

Blocky in-game style. A few short clips like 5-10 seconds each.

Not a lot of pressure, no face cam, not a waste of time bc I need to record these anyways. Just trying a bunch of random bullshit in Scribblenauts for like 2 hours and then dipping. I’ve felt way less anxious during these than I felt all of last years streams.

Streaming in particular was kinda tough for me last year. Never really had good viewership and even when I took big swings like the Party-Thon I was just always anxious about underperforming.

These short chill streams have been a really nice way to get into a routine and enjoy it a bit more.

Very happy with this new shorts series! Not doing as well as my old shorts, but I really enjoy the community aspect and the consistency of streaming and putting something out every other day!

Don’t say “cheating is bad” in front of Dream Stans worst mistake of my life

Like I was making Garfield memes about the original cheating scandal! This image is dated December 2021 in my camera roll, half a decade of this shit? Is this the only way to stay relevant?

I can’t believe it’s 2026 and Dream is still cheating and still responding horribly to it. Like just grow up, man.

Unique abilities like this that require more engaged cooperation to use are cool and inherently fun to use with friends. I hope more characters in the future get stuff like this.

Idk how balanced it is, and that part can always come later, but the concept is really fun and smart.
