The California Wildfires have made up here smokey as shit, to the point where they've considered cancelling schools and they advise everyone to wear masks when going outside and it lol'ed me because that's just normal 2020 news at this point, didn't even have to bring the wildfires into it

TBH it almost looks too good for 2001

DKC2 comin out on Switch Online on the 23rd Wasn't gonna start anything but the pre-order for Mario 3D All-Stars is probs gonna arrive (if it's not cancelled) next week sometime so I decided to hit up SNES All-Stars. Feels like there's input lag on Mario 1 SNES (never noticed it before because I only got gud at Mario 1 a few years ago), and never noticed but in NES Mario 1 you rebound off the bottom of blocks you break whereas in SNES you drive through them (fucks up the end-jump to the pipe on World 4-2)

(Twitter roasting'em pretty good, "PG and Kawhi shot enough bricks to build the Clippers new arena")

I was lookin forward to Lakers/Clippers and might've even watched a few of the full games

Still on the catchup with Boruto (harder to defend but I can still do it), but Naruto's mostly easy to defend as a great series (as long as we're skipping the filler, also can't defend the endless-anime animation valleys, don't Pain Arc me ;_;) I'm about to start a Bleach rewatch in a day or so (one episode per day pace, so 7 per week), only watched it once, didn't finish the final arc before it got cancelled. Gonna watch the filler arcs too but haven't decided if I should watch those after I'm caught up on the main story or before

Arigato, Eizan's team, for wiping out Vegas.

I remember a faction warfare storyline from RoH where Generation Next split up, and Austin Aries formed his own crew and Roderick Strong formed his own crew and Jack Evans was supposed to form his own crew but it took months later and his promo excuse in the middle of the ring was "I'm kinda lazy" so I 100% believe Jack is not helping himself out

Giannis

Welp

Game's back-and-forth as fuck

Dat Norm stank-face when he massacred the Celtics in double OT TBH after the first few mins of the first quarter, I fast forwarded because I wasn't gonna watch another clunk-clunk game and only stopped near the end of the 3rd when they'd come back and grabbed a lead. Couldn't tell you how a lot of the game went.

YOOOOOOO The G1 blocks were announced today

I can see them answering Boston tonight but I don't think they win the series either way. Raps best players and second best players are missing so many open and easy looks and not getting into a rhythm that each game feels like an uphill battle even when Boston's playing at its worst.

Looks like a washing machine

Cool as shit, but like Hyrule Warriors, I don't think I'ma buy it for full price and it's probs not getting much in the way of price drops because Nintendo, so I doubt I'll end up playing it

Good fucking god, even the things I didn't like about this initially are hype as shit now

I gave up just after the second quarter started and fast forwarded the PVR just to see if they ever got close

It's sure making the Bucks look bad. Kyle's leadership is priceless. 34 years old, taking a billion charges, dives face first into loose balls on the ground without thinking, will play the entire game if need be. If your best player's doing shit like that, and he's also one of the oldest players, that shit filters down to everyone else

Yeah, all of the major building blocks are under 25 (Quinn Hughes is only 20, what the fuck) so theoretically this group should be together awhile unless cap troubles or injuries hit

Pascal woke up, Kyle still a legend

Ye, it's a mega-corporation banking on the idea that they can sue any of their wrestlers into the ground and for the most part the mainstream doesn't pay attention to wrestling so they fly under the radar. Apparently Andrew Yang knows what's up and more or less said if Biden wins, if he's not the Secretary of Labour he'll have that person's phone number and something might get done about it

Apparently UUDD is owned by WWE so that one's fine. I saw some talk about how it's mostly about using their WWE names while promoting outside things, but WWE is also claiming to own their real names too (which is technically illegal)

I know next to nothing about Stardom besides that Mayu Iwatani was/is on the Kairi Sane/Io Shirai level of "among the best women's wrestlers in the world." And the whole Hana Kimura thing.

Yeah. I think they were expected to hang in the playoff race, making the playoffs would be a bonus. Winning two rounds (though one of them didn't exist last season), one to the defending Stanley Cup Champs, and then taking the round they lost in to Game 7 was blowing those expectations out of the water. Sophomore slump next year maybe, Vegas wrote the blueprint for cancelling out the Canuck offense
