That fight between Bucky, Sam and Fake Cap was super awesome, surprised to see them break Walker's arm just to get the shield back from him. I really ove the times in the MCU where people use their powers/abilities for little things. Back in Iron Man 1, I remember Tony using the foot jets to lift him up off the ground just slightly in order to give a jumping punch a little more weight/momentum to it. Seeing Sam do something similar with his jetpack for that backflip kick made me smile. I didn't recognize the name of Julia Louis Dreyfus' character, I was originally thinking she may have been Madame Hydra (Edit: She apparently takes the moniker of Madame Hydra at some point, but she's not the first?), but I don't think the name she gave was the same. Interesting to see Zemo get taken back by the Wakandans, not sure why he's gonna be on the Raft though, seems like that'd be much easier for someone to break him out of than anywhere in Wakanda itself. That scene with Sharon talking to Batroc on the phone has me thinking she actually is the Power Broker, but if she isn't I see whomever it is potentially getting revealed in a post credits scene after the final episode. I wonder who's side she's actually on in this, considering where Batroc showed up later in the episode. It seems weird for her to help arm Karli and her people. Seeing Sam practice with the shield was super cool too, I think this may be the first time i've ever seen the shield not thrown perfectly. I can't imagine how that thing actually works, it just seems to magnetize itself back to whomever's throwing it, regardless of the angle. I was originally thinking the case that Bucky brought back to Sam would've been new, vibranium laced wings, but since it wasn't really opened until the end of the episode, i'm thinking it's his new costume as well. I'm wondering if we'll see Walker back again in the final episode, i'm not really sure where he fits in at the moment. I haven't heard anything about them starting a US Agent series or anything like that, so i'm not sure where he goes from here. Obviously he goes to visit Julia Louis Dreyfus' character, but will they show that in this, or save it for something down the line? Edit: There IS a mid-credits scene in this one. It's Walker putting together a new shield.

Lots of releases Man, outside of NXT they really fucked up by not using Joe more often. Dude can go in the ring and was a great promo. I know he was a bit injury prone, but anywhere else would be super lucky to have him.

Seems like Destiny crossed with The Division. This is from the people that made Bulletstorm back in the 360/PS3 era. And today there was a good 20 minute long video showcasing some gameplay, and going into one of the classes. (skip to about 22:10 in this video)

I've been going through Doom 64 a level at a time or so. Turns out Doom is a fun game, who knew?

Bug causes players' inventory to be wiped Wow. I hear this has been fixed so it shouldn't happen again, but for people that already lost their stuff, they may be fucked.

I heard most of night 2 was a shitshow, as was tonight's Raw. I didn't bother to watch anything outside of Cesaro/Rollins, only because I heard who won and wanted to hear/see the reaction he got from fans. Also, hearing Hogan get booed was awesome. Fuck the Hulk Hogan forever.[/sheikie baby]

Rewatched Galaxy Quest with the bf, he'd never seen it before. It still holds up

"That head tilt thing"

Glad we got to see the last of Bucky's de-programming in Wakanda, his reaction when he realizes he's finally free was amazing to watch. It was also super interesting to see the Dora Milaje just completely take his arm off. I didn't know what she was doing until it fell off, but it makes perfect sense that they would know how to take it off. I think this may be the first time we've really seen them in action outside of a scene or two in Black Panther. Glad to see they got Walker taking the serum in this episode, I guess this sets him up as the "villain" for the rest of the series, although I gotta wonder what Sharon is up to. Fake Cap killing that one guy while he lie there defenseless is gonna stick with me for a bit, too.

I'd have to re-watch the episode, but I remember seeing someone else say they walk past the bar Wolverine would frequent, and go into another, so...

That was one of the things about the rollout here that bugged me. I had friends who still had the option to work from home for a few more months getting it before me, who works for a company that has to have face to face interactions with dozens of people every day. It's kind of ridiculous, but at least now there's an end in sight for me.

Put my info into whatever app/website California uses a few weeks ago and still haven't heard anything. Tonight, I called up my pharmacy to refill a prescription, when the automated message mentioned something about the vaccine, so I checked their website and I now have an appointment for this Friday at 11AM for my first shot. I also set up the second shot for the 30th. Not sure which one i'm getting yet, but i'm going to have to pretty much rush to work afterwards so I won't be late. It'll be worth it if I can finally get it done, though.

I was really not expecting to see Madripoor brought up without the X-Men. I feel like every time I see that city it involves either Wolverine himself, or the X-Men as a whole. It was even cooler to see it realized in the MCU. I was really hoping they'd bring up Tyger Tiger while in Madripoor too, but maybe she's not in power yet at this point in the MCU timeline. I'm really surprised that Zemo stuck with Sam and Bucky after the explosion at the secret lab, I figured he'd be off doing his own thing from that point on. You know he's gonna try and bail at some point, although I gotta wonder if that Dora Milaje agent that Bucky ran into at the end (or another of them) will end up with their hands on Zemo. I'm hoping he gets away somehow, he's too interesting of a bad guy to get rid of this quickly (not that it's stopped other Marvel villians from dying). The theory on reddit is that Sharon is the Power Broker...could be interesting.

NXT moving to Tuesdays

Hb@u

When he told Sam and Bucky to stay out of his way, oooh I wanted to punch him so bad. Someone else on reddit pointed out that from Fake Cap's perspective, he's trying to help them out by bringing them in and they keep rejecting him, so it makes sense. But for Sam and Bucky, it's just some asshole running around in Cap's clothes.

I still can't stand this new Captain America (and i'm sure that's the point). He may have been a good soldier, but he's no Steve Rogers. He also seems to be blindly following what the government wants, which is something Steve never really did. That fight scene on top of the truck was pretty cool, but too short for my tastes. I'm glad Sam and Bucky had that little therapy session midway through the episode, it was a nice way to break the tension, although I wish Sam had responded to what Bucky had said.

For me it was probably the third season of Daredevil. Either that or the last season of The Blacklist. I haven't really been watching much TV at all lately, which gives me a huge backlog to go through when I do feel like watching.

I've been watching a shit ton of Shark Tank lately. A lot of the financial shit is way above my head, but the ideas and the personalities associated with them are super interesting.

California is apparently ahead of the curve with vaccine rollouts, as everyone over 50 can get the vaccine April 1st, and everyone over 16 can get it on the 15th. I still wish it were sooner, but oh well.

I love me some Kyle O'Reilly

Most of these I knew, but there were a few that I didn't
