It got fucked by Avengers Endgame. I swear it was only in theaters for a week or so. Tried to go see it and the whole theater went to only Endgame. And this was in NYC.

I think a lot about how my mom didn't take the 2 bedroom because it was a little more money (than the $250 afforded by welfare) so I had to grow up in a 1 bedroom, that never got renovated because scumbag landlords don't care.

Can't even imagine what her rent went to after eviction.

So unnecessary. Section 8 is income dependent, a lot of "affordable" rent is. I had to hide my not great income to avoid an increase beyond the very reasonable $950 a month.

These folks are acting like rent is still $250 a month like in the 80s, which was the full amount welfare gave you.

The short version of What's Good for this week means I didn't get to lavish praise on @mike-eagle.bsky.social's video for "my co-worker Clark Kent's secret black box", but if you haven't seen it, go get a perfect slice of what sitting in front of Yo! or Rap City was like.

Somewhat unstuck on stage one again! I'll have to flesh out more of the interactions once the stage is actually complete lol!

It's pretty much "snap everything" right now.

If you want a DOPE demo with *hours* of play time where you're fighting back against the end of the world, check out my demo. (and give it a review!)

I keep tapping the sign that more fights in games & movies should follow *good* wrestling booking.

One other thing that does actually explain why he gets his ass kicked is he's clearly scared of his own power.

& he believes in non-lethal takedowns, which was explained vs. the giant alien thing.

There's a part in the movie where they explain how there's no more kryptonite on Earth and it would've been cool for the first fight to have been all of the remaining Kryptonite used to hurt Superman, and still he just kinda got hurt.

I think Superman losing a fight off screen without some sort of kryptonite beam was a mistake. It doesn't really work from a booking standpoint.

But, I appreciate his stance in this movie. He's being called an outsider so much, but Lex, who is willing to destroy Earth, is actually the weirdo.

The only way to opt out of this AI bot is by blocking it. Really need people to declare if something is AI.
