Watching the teams I manage/work with win stuff is so satisfying

GAME 9 ALERT www.twitch.tv/splatoontour...

*not praciticually productive holy shit I cannot spell

U could probably figure out who I don't like playing with with enough guestimation but I don't like starting beef with random people for "skill issue" thats not particularly public so I've never like, written down a formal list of "people-i-will-refuse-to-play-with"

I can relate to the bad pickup experiences, I just shrug and move on (+ put the players I didn't like on a metaphorical blacklist)

This season was the first one I played X rank almost every single day for 2-4 hours every day, and I saw a significant increase in mechs skill. Even in the NA region I was able to refine my positioning and awareness SO MUCH.

It was definitely enraging at times but streaming it helps me stay calm ^^

Sun-Eater, a team making their #SendouQ Season Finale debut and 12th seed of the event, have guaranteed a podium finish in Playoffs!

They UPSET Hypernova, BEt, and BlankZ. Even taking PxG to a Game 5.

Was this an oversight in seeding? Or a tourney run of a lifetime? #compsplatoon

“Massive” war launched by a man with no plan. Again. Donald Trump is repeating George W. Bush's catastrophic mistakes.

NEW: Trump launches a "massive" war on Iran—with no apparent plans for what comes next. This is what Bush and Cheney did with Iraq two decades ago. It's deja vu all over again. As the missiles fly, I look back at what that dangerous folly can tell us about this one.

this, honestly, sums it up

iran's military doesn't stand much of a chance. but they can inflict a lot of retaliatory pain via ballistic missiles and anti-ship stuff (they haven't done the second thing yet fwiw).

scud-hunting, as we know from iraq and yemen, is basically impossible

We tried regime change wars in Iraq, in Libya, in Afghanistan. It never works. All we've done is killed millions and left chaos and ruin in our wake.

NO WAR IN IRAN. Any politician not doing all they can to stop this must be replaced in 2026.

Jordan, Israel, Palestine (Gaza & Westbank) all colored Blue to denote US presence and protection umbrella. Iran is green and in the center. Surrounding it are countries in Red, signaling active war zones or destabilization that are caused by the US: Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan

This is why the US has finally decided that the opening to attack Iran is viable -

2003 to Today: Iraq is degraded systematically
Oct 2024: Lebanon invaded by Israel, degrading Hezbollah
Dec 2024: Assad regime falls, replaced w/ CIA Assets
Feb 27th, 2026: Pakistan declares 'Open War' on Afghanistan

i know I'm political qrting today but if there was any better time to do it, it was yesterday

massively disappointed in how nothing seems to change, regardless of what small victories the progressive side of the aisle takes

Reminder that this tactic does not result in lasting or meaningful policy changes and is used by fascists and xenophobes to prevent the administration from backing away from afflicting the afflicted
See the 38 min mark of this video:

anyone choosing this moment to be all "here's what you get with republicans: bombs in the middle east" needs to grow up rapidly, considering what the last dem admin did in gaza & their current support for trump's actions right now. this is what you get with (wholly bipartisan) american imperialism

That + all the recent news that I'm sure doesn't need statement has definitely put me on edge recently

It sucks all around

And this is why I say never, ever get your hopes up about a leftist politician. They are all politicians at the end of the day - and aren’t your friends.

Shame on Mamdani for abandoning trans youth in New York

Same vibes

I'm glad they're giving GF more time to cook this time around

November 2027 is the likely release date for the new Pokemon games. Definitely enough time to replay older titles.

Pokemon Winds & Waves is probably a day 1 buy for me

Feeding Frenzy absolutely stanced up, aura farming in Mahi-Mahi Resort Zones.

Hey LUTI! We played our first set on stream and went 5-3 against Midnight Hour! Despite a bit of disconnect issues, it was a blast. Thank you everyone! #compsplatoon

warming up to the spec cam stuff

honestly feels really good to be able to potentially get a lot of commentary blocks, today was just a warm up and I felt really good about it

It'd be bad enough if people were just mailed new licenses that reject their identity and out them to anyone that sees them, but having to pay for the new ones when they already had licenses is disenfranchisement. This could be a simple clerical change but it seems designed to jerk people around.
