I originally designed Meta & Nilla in 2004! That means 2024 marks 20 years of these two dorks! I dunno the exact date I created either of them, but Meta was designed first, probably two or three months before Nilla was. I gotta try to draw 'em a bunch before the year ends!

an unreasonable pet peeve I have is when people call Animal Crossing for Gamecube "Population Growing" like that's it's subtitle. it's not a subtitle! it's just some text on the box! it's not on the spine or title screen! Super Smash Bros. Melee isn't subtitled "Nintendo's Best in 4-Player Action!"

Happy Thanksgiving, y’all. I do have a lot to be thankful for, even if the state of the world and my country and the president aren’t among them. I hope everyone has a nice day and some good food.

I still haven't actually watched Rise of Skywalker. At this point maybe I just won't, and I can keep imagining that the somber note of small hope at the end of The Last Jedi was just like, an open-ended finale where you're invited to speculate, like FFVII or Inception

Kirby's Adventure was the first game I ever beat by myself. Marathoning it after school in my parents' bedroom (that was where the NES was) was a formative experience for me.

You're ACTUALLY falling during that first phase! If you take too long to beat the ball form, you'll hit the ground and die!
man. you can see the Kid Icarus Uprising "jaw-dropping, unbelievable epic grandeur" stylistic trait all the way back in Kirby's Adventure www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rpn...

I thought Proto Man was the coolest when I was 8 and at 36 he’s probably still in, like, top 5

Had a dream I was watching a JaidenAnimations video ranking the Star Wars movies by how much Jabba is in them

Hey so I actually did record myself opening the newest box of Lorcana, Whispers in the Well. It's very long and rambling about a niche thing so if you don't want to watch it, I understand. But I figured I should probably promote it.

Metroid fans are fucking weird, dude. Every other genre complains constantly about silent and self-insert protagonists but Metroid fans are like “so help me, God, Samus better not say ONE word or show ANY emotion or personality or I am OUT. I still haven’t forgiven you for the last time she did”

I would die for Professor Tangrowth

Man. He was only 53. What a loss. Super Broly is one of my top 10 or 15 favorite films, period. RIP
RIP to anime director Tatsuya Nagamine. One of the finest adventure anime directors of the modern era. He helped breath new life into long-running series and made them feel altogether vital again. The current One Piece boom wouldn't have been possible in the same way without him.

most reviews I saw of Katamari were like "yeah, it's Katamari, it's good but it doesn't really innovate" but let me tell you, putting dash on a button and telling you what score you need for the next rank are pretty huge for me

Rosalina just effortlessly one-tapping Megaleg is like something straight out of a fanfiction and I love to see it
November 12, 2025 at 7:25 PM
I said this before (and I’m someone who also prefers Rosalina), but poor Daisy. This upstart from 2006 gets to be in the billion-grossing animated sequel before her

after they announced that update I booted it up to link it to the Switch 2 and just sort of take a look at my town, realized there's a ton of game I never saw because I stopped playing before 2.0 and Happy Home Paradise, always felt guilty I never completed the museum, and, well,

less serious answer: fishing

I know the answer already but I won't say no to getting a bunch of images of them in my notifications

I remember people laughing at “you mess with one of us, you mess with all of us” in 2002 when Spider-Man first came out. My English teacher made fun of it. Interesting to see it relitigated.

I liked it! It’s the Goblin’s nihilism being proved wrong. The Dark Knight boat scene six years earlier.

that scene where SpongeBob starts putting patties on the grill and the crowd is like “yes!! that’s what we’ve been waiting for!!” but it’s just an actually progressive candidate with a loud and clear message
