I love the funny squid game it has brought so much good to my life. One day I will actually be good at it too just you wait 🐙
I'm not super happy with what I accomplished splatoon-wise in 2025 but I guess I did do the two things I said I would do, which was to continue to try out new weapons and roles (even if I ultimately decided they just weren't for me), and 5-star another weapon (I did two).

it's really just so cool & one of my favorite things to get to listen in on friends practicing/getting coaching/discussing tactics. and part of me so badly just wants to get back on an active team asap but I know I probably need to work on myself first.

I went with THIS!

Clawz, Dapples and Dread have been a GREAT trio for over half a year, and I really wanted a crab in the last slot!

CAM-O is the weirdest, but crab with two slider is so OP….

the skills you learn from splatoon are transferable to all parts of life. here, @aiko-octo.bsky.social and i are taking what we learned through being "QR Warriors" and applying it to wilderness survival. #highdivsplatoon

I keep having this reccouring dream that, after years of not holding any competitions, nintendo decided to run skateboard contests for comp players and it was all filmed like reality TV and honestly it's really funny

There is a direct correlation between how funny someone is and how good they are at clam blitz

After R4R on Saturday I will be taking a few weeks away from the game. However while NAL is now over I have a couple more things from it 👀

First, over the league I recorded stats of myself for *every game.* With the league complete I can now comfortably share

idk what to make of the play sessions where I am so SO fiercely locked in and acting with so much intention and feel more vividly aware than I've felt in months and then im just actually performing so poorly by the numbers. meanwhile the games didn't even feel bad at all they were so incredibly fun.

if you're not watching splatoon NA league rn you are MISSING OUT
December 14, 2025 at 11:10 PM
playing with a theory that maybe part of my problem is that I'm just too comfortable with losing. I want to improve & I want to win but I'm not sure I believe that I actually deserve to win enough to act like it. I think I self-fulfill my own prophecies of failure.

"Sorry for throwing that game"
- self deprecating
- brings attention to your perceived failures

"Thanks for the carry my guys, gals and enby pals"
- lifts others up
- brushes of your mistakes
- literally makes everyone feel better

got back home yesterday evening. I've slept 15 of the last 24hours and i'm still sleepy.

I slept 4h or less each night for the last 3 nights so. makes sense.
