Maybe not "revolutionary" but in the coming years I will do my best to try and be a source of positivity in what I do. Whether that's my daily life, Pokémon events, wrestling events, or anything else. Life is going to be hard enough, I'll try and make it better in at least some small way when I can.

Genuinely baffled at the takes coming out questioning intent or talking about how people go through phases etc.

It's a Totenkopf.

If that doesn't disqualify you from public office what does?

Do people not realize political candidates come and go but defending actual nazi tattoos lasts forever?

It's just so.... Fun. The focus of setting it all in one small location was such a good call. Lumiose feels like a city.

Chris Wolfe @woffles.bsky.social · 9h

Anyway Legends Z-A is the best Pokémon game in a long time, probably since ORAS. It actually feels like a game that Game Freak wanted to make instead of just adhering to a release schedule, and it did a lot to elevate X and Y which is no small feat.

YouTube keeps suggesting videos from outrage merchants about how a new game that I really love is actually a huge failure and a blight on gaming. No thanks, I'm good.

Legends Z-A is so much better than I expected. I'm thinking this might be the best Switch era Pokémon game.

Mega Meganium is everything I hoped for and I really hope it will be good competitively. She deserves it.

This morning, I was hit in the face by a baton.

I’m going to have a pretty gnarly bruise but we need to remember why this is happening: Trump and ICE are rounding up our neighbors, treating them as subhuman, and shipping them off to labor camps in foreign countries. It has to end.

I gotta say it's kind of fucked that Lumiose City has anti-homeless benches.

I was skeptical about the setting of Legends Z-A being one city but it's a surprisingly inspired choice now that I have my hands on it. Absolutely loving this game.

Chris Wolfe @woffles.bsky.social · 6d

Yeah, or lots of them are just not broadcasting their conservative leanings and they actually like that nazi platform.

Chris Wolfe @woffles.bsky.social · 6d

You don't need it for your brand or reach. Those still on that platform aren't those you should want to reach anyway. There's no good reason for remaining. The old Twitter is long since dead.

Chris Wolfe @woffles.bsky.social · 6d

You don't need it. You will be a better person without it.

Long story short, an actual Nazi doxxing ring. Enough people reported them that they went away for like 12 hours and then Elon personally brought them back. The site is dead. If you’re still on there, go lock your account right now

If you still have a Twitter/X account at this point I don't even know what to say other than "Why?"

I don't like balance patches to single player games. Or at least not ones like Silksong and souls-like games. I beat the game already, 100%. When I revisit it I don't want it to suddenly play completely different. Bug fixes are good, but nerfing playstyles? Nah, don't like.

Hey look, Israel broke the cease-fire, twice, in two different ways, within 24 hours - again.

NEW: Israel informed the UN it will permit only 300 aid trucks into Gaza daily, not the 600 mandated by the ceasefire it just signed.

Microsoft is plugging more holes that let you use Windows 11 without an online account

Microsoft is disabling the best local account workarounds

Chris Wolfe @woffles.bsky.social · 7d

Honestly I was probably going to go this route with the decision to block using a local account in 11 and being forced into using a Microsoft account, but I'll take more than one reason.

Chris Wolfe @woffles.bsky.social · 7d

Despite the fact that my PC could easily run Windows 11, it's listed as not compatible, so rather than spend a bunch of money I don't have to "upgrade" I guess I'm going to learn how to use Linux. 🖕 Micro$oft

There do not exist any reforms that would make ICE or DHS acceptable going forward. Both must be abolished.
