Oshka being angrier at Bargello for not being a fraud than he is at the rich he has been trying to take down is a great commentary on how socialist progressive communities slit each other's throats over authenticity and commitment to the cause. Bravo.

Oshka buying all the towns food and weapons and resources then blocking the roads to easily kill everyone off is probably the most genius villain plot I've seen in a game in a while. When Octopath Traveler 0 works it works.

Octopath Traveler 0 having a creepy priest Father Taigan is certainly a choice.

THE VANCOUVER CANUCKS BEAT THE EDMONTON OILERS IN OT HAHAHAHAHA

010

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 16h

As per usual something from 30 years ago doesn't make me feel old. Gavin McKenna saying he was 8 years old when he saw Auston Matthews play in his rookie season a decade ago and now both play for the Toronto Maple Leafs? That made me feel ancient.

So many new sentences I wish I never read.

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 18h

"Can you believe the Vancouver Canucks are currently leading on the Edmonton Oilers?" no I cannot. "Can you believe a team currently trailing tried to play Alex Formenton on their top line?" well that explains it.

What's embarrassing is Cody Rhodes should have no fear. He should be saying AEW any time he wants because he used to be there as a star. WWE needs him more than he needs them. And yet he's afraid to rock the boat. Absolute wussy. No spine.

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 18h

As I pointed out elsewhere, they don't say names because they are scared of Pritchard (who still represents Vince), Hayes (who for some reason has power still), and HHH, who is a sour ass empty chip bag. The Rock had no issue saying his name or AEW. Because he's above those fucks forever.

Dorofeyev and Tolvanen I like. I don't think I trust him to move pieces and allow the Rangers to properly rebuild. Oh well. You're getting first overall regardless. Have you ever heard a name that screamed NEW YORK RANGERS STAR like Landon DuPont?

010

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 18h

I'm only now learning the Rangers traded Boston for Korpisalo!? But why!? Sigh. Drury needs to be fired.

The #Habs beat the Maple Leafs 3-2 Montreal's top six couldn't find the net but the bottom six got the work done. Defensively the Habs look better than last season. Dobes on form. Florian Xhekaj should come in. Alex Texier out.

030

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 19h

Dobes will get most of the credit but this was Derek Lalonde tightening up the Habs defensively and beating his old club.

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 19h

Leafs within one now with 4 minutes remaining. All those Leaf fans who left early will feel dumb.

100

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 19h

CARRIER! He deserves that after excellent penalty kill work. #Habs

110

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 20h

Florian Xhekaj better get in next game after that dumb penalty Texier took.

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 20h

This VISION QUEST thing looks awful. I almost feel bad for people who think they have to watch all Marvel content.

000

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 20h

I love that Sportsnet cut to Arber Xhekaj because Toronto got rowdy.

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 20h

This ice in Toronto is AWFUL my lord everyone keeps falling.

Good hit by Struble on Paul.

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 20h

Third period time for the #Habs time to close this out. #GoHabsGo

120

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 20h

Alex Formenton playing top line for game one of the Edmonton Oilers. Deeply unserious organization.

020

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 21h

BOLDUC! Great work by Matheson too. #Habs

000

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 21h

Struble almost got puck stripped by Zack McEwen. I need him off this team.

100

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 21h

Big stop by Dobes on Marchenko

100

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 21h

Alright second period starting 1-1 #GoHabsGo #Habs

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 21h

With Bill Skarsgard looking like goth Cody Rhodes

Street Fighter movie looks like unwashed ass. Reminds me of that Crow movie that came out in 2024 but leaning harder on comedy.

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 21h

Some excellent puck control on the boards by Xhekaj. What he needs to show to stay in the lineup.

010

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 21h

Honestly liked the PK work there. Lalonde making an early difference.

100

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 21h

Time to see some improvement on the PP. Though the Leafs got some killers on their PP1

100

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 21h

Josh Anderson is once again a Leafs killer. We're tied! #Habs

110

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 21h

Good movement for the first half of the PP but still too fancy. Gotta fire the puck on the net.

100

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 22h

Awful pass by Bolduc. After getting his money I really need to see more from him.

100

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 22h

The Hutson - Carrier pair does not work. They should either switch Carrier with Xhekaj or call up Reinbacher.

100

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 22h

Toronto media really pushing the PRESSURE IS ON MONTREAL TO WIN NOW stuff. I'm good with it. Pressure makes a diamond. Even if the #habs slip up here and there they are on the right track.

100

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 22h

I saw Oliver Kapenen is out and Alex Newhook is in as 2C. I don't mind that. I think Newhook is better at it than people suggest. He might end up the 2C all year until Hage's NCAA career is done.

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 22h

Game 1 for the #Habs versus the Toronto Maple Leafs tonight I don't really start caring too much about a team performance until late November but I didn't like Monty and Engstrom staying up while Fowler and Reinbacher went down. Hoping for changes without a lot of losses. #GoHabsGo

A lot of pro wrestling games are RPGs but categorized differently just due to the gameplay. It's basically an RPG but instead of a world of battlefields there's only one.

010

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 23h

I'll have a drink with you when people deny that action RPGs count for the N64 list just because they weren't turn based (since so many RPGs are now non turned based) Harvest Moon is also an RPG that simply exchanges warfare for farming.

Back in 2019 he was praising Cody and Jericho in the build up to Full Gear and said he watched AEW in 2020 and said he was happy about their success. This is one of the few things he gets better than most over there. Especially Paul.

Dwayne has his quirks but he was never the same level of fed brain as others. He always considered WWE the top level since it's all he knew but he was friendly enough with Meltzer to get his input on wrestling outside that bubble. He's always been respectful to promotions outside of WWE.

Like you're basically Battle Jesus. You're the chosen one of the dominant religion of the land uniting three kingdoms from an evil that nearly destroyed those kingdoms and you're standing in watch of the peace treaty but nah you get forgotten.

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 29/09/2026

At some point Octopath Traveler 0 tells you that your work on the battlefield and protecting essentially everyone and saving the day will be forgotten to only a few Kings. I think this was supposed to be a nod to Final Fantasy Tactics ending but boy it doesn't work here.

Of all the awful uses of generative ai this is one of the most quietly disgusting. These aren't tributes. They are snuff sympathy cards done by dopamine addicts groping themselves over the clout they can squeeze out of a tragedy. I'm furious when I see these. Can't imagine how their peers feel.

Since WWE's trying to exploit PAC's death, it's time to talk about this: Remember how PAC suddenly had visa issues when AEW started? That's because, when the AEW trademarks were filed, WWE called USCIS to claim he walked out on his visa. After leaving him alone for a year and giving him his release.

Really good video that discusses how record labels now have to separate "online popular" bands from "IRL" bands who actually make money touring. He also did a good video on how arenas are ruining bands due to their costs. youtu.be/-K_GHA8RmrA?...

It's always chasing a tail. I do think 96-98 was unique because it truly felt like there was no trend to chase. It was just alternative music. I have an affinity to post 07 when electro and synth got some good bands again. There's some good bands today but few are mainstream.

Aaron Wrotkowski @aaron.wrotkowski.ca · 29/09/2026

Hey there's stuff from then that's still good. I throw on Stupid Girl by Cold all the time. Deftones is a bigger fresh air than I realized at the time. But when you see the volume of good to great songs between 94-98 compared to 99-02 it's incredible how bad things got.
