Some people don't like the idea of Karin Kanzuki and Necalli being arch-enemies, but here's another idea to throw out there. Did you ever notice how similar their hair is to each other?

There's a lot of crap going on in the world. I know what I write is trivial in comparison, but still, it's important to me and other people, and for that reason, I keep writing about Street Fighter lore.

I may not be writing on politics, but I'll leave that to those who understand it better. [1]

Well, I always believed that gaming is a religion.

Now we just need a few hymns.
I am at the grand opening of the "Church Arcade" here in the Pittsburgh area.

A really cool new arcade located in an old repurpased church. Vibes are immaculate and the game selection is great.

All American cabs, but a good variety of classics, shooters, fighters, driving, and pinball games.

I've always thought Karin Kanzuki would make a great horror game protagonist. She would start the game arrogant and certain of her own abilities and by the end, after facing eldritch horrors and her family's own terrible secrets, she would be so broken, she would be a new person.

Btw, I'm in a game.
This character is inspired from the real @stevenmane.bsky.social , a true lore master of the Street Fighter universe. If you love fighting game lore, he will show you how deep the Street Fighter universe really is. He'll even show you many, many things you've overlooked.

Time again for a little more #screenshotsaturaday for #ElemensionalRift. Steven Mane, the war council advisor, knows much about the regional politics, a historian extraordinaire, and knows the backgrounds of everyone important. Some might even call him a lore master.

Capcom, please just bring back Q, if you do, I'll stop trying to swim through the multiverse in hopes of auditioning for him. C'mon...! Dimensional stability and in return you bring back a character folks like!

*sits in chair* Oh, I didn't see you there. Did your know 1,000s of people today still think G BECOMES Mr Street Fighter Q? And think Gill is to blame? Well, friend, that simply isn't the case! Tell a friend, save them, today. *Credits roll*
I gotta keep reposting this cause some folks still think G will turn into Q in the future. 🥹

They're not the same person, and Gill has nothing to do with them.

I enjoy NFL content and this is the greatest meltdown video I have ever seen.

I am so glad I post Street Fighter content because no matter how much Capcom screws up, I will never have a meltdown this bad over it.

No, sir. Not ever.

Nope. This hurts more.
Great game. I'd have rather lost to the Rams than Green Bay. Go win it all!
January 19, 2026 at 3:09 AM
The Rams are literally the Lions of the West. I hate Matthew Statpadder. I hate Sean McVay. I hope the Seahawks stomp a mud hole into Statpadder's MVP campaign. He doesn't deserve it.
