Trauma, probably.

Or was that rhetorical?

Datto is dogshit for his first few levels but he eventually becomes the fastest non-Guado blitzer in the world. Blitzball's basic (busted) mechanics mean that speed is king, and so a well-developed Datto becomes the biggest weapon you can have.

The working hypothesis is "their hotshot supposed genius coach really is a genius, and Anthony Richardson is just terrible."

Final Fantasy X would have been more subtle if its tagline was "The Catholic Church is bad, mmkay?"

This procedure / enchantment is 100% connected to high-level blitzball, and the only reason Rikku got it is that the Psyches know or are part of the Al Bhed excavation / piracy crew.

The Jaguars have existed for 30 years, now, and they still feel a little bit fake, moreso than the Panthers (who came in at the same time) or the Texans (who are newer). They feel more fake than the Rays and Diamondbacks, who are also newer.

Is that me? Is it the city? The franchise?

That's not how "kids" talk. That's not how "boys" talk. That's not how "gamers" talk. That is how fucking racists talk.

Ten dollars a month will not be the make or break for WBD or HBO Max or AEW or anyone, but there's absolutely no reason to expose myself to this.

A screenshot of the HBO Max subscription cancellation page. A poll asks "what made you decide to cancel?" My response: "Repeated offensive ICE recruitment ads during programming."

Buddy this take is a scorcher and you may wind up regretting it but please never for a second doubt it. Glorified tech demo ass game.

What's the worst game you finished/rolled credits on?

(games media folks, it can't be something you were assigned to review; this has to be something you subjected yourself to of your own free will)

You're renting out a movie theater for you and your friends/family for three films. What are you choosing?

The only guy I can think of who feels similar to Alonso and didn't collapse immediately in his early 30s is Mark McGwire, who was a much better hitter at his peak and fell off a cliff instantly at 36 instead. Is there one that I'm missing?

I think you make that call at the next race. If the M's are leading or it's close, Humpy wins every time until the M's lose. If that game is a blowout loss, Humpy only wins in deciding games.

It’s a ‘26 Corolla Cross SE. Her name is Becky. Drives like my old car but a little zippier and more cargo room plus modern features like cruise control and backup camera.

I've noticed the opposing team's fans only cheer when the opponents score on us. To win those fans over, I recommend we score on ourselves repeatedly; that will surely make them so happy they'll start supporting us. And I'm sure all our fans will keep cheering for us—who else is there to cheer for?

I spent it (and more) buying the old laundry detergent. And itch relief.
