In a game with tons of NY tropes and stereotypes, Deadlock has somehow outdone itself and made a character with the MOST NY motivation ever.

Posted this in my Discord, then pointed out the years all these movies were set in, and.. I think I might have done some real damage there....
A post saying that the main characters in Twelve Monkeys, Children of Men, and Blade Runner would all be millennials. And, just so you know, Children of Men is set in 2027, Twelve Monkeys is 2035 , and Blade Runner is 2019.

Need to come clean and admit that I've been watching the World Cup games exclusively through vtuber watchalongs.
Is Brazil v Japan that most ANIME of the World Cup games? I say, yes.

What's crazier? That it costs around FIVE THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS to get nosebleed seats for the NBA Finals. Or that I legitimately thought "hey, if there's ever a reason to take out a loan..."?
SeatGeek letting me that I could either own a home, or see the NBA Finals in person.For $4939 you, too, could have a worse view of a basketball game than if You watched on TV.

What a difference three years will make...
Bill Simmons sort of hating on the Knicks. Which, to be fair, was justifiable at the time, but Imma talk smack about it now.Bill Simmons kind of bandwagoning the Knicks. Which, again, very justifiable, but we still gonna dunk on him.

I'm not depressed. Would a depressed person spend money like this?
I mean, maybe I REALLY need a Steam Controller. Have you thought about that? Maybe this $99 isn't depression, but thoughtful financial spending.

It's true.
Richeh, in episode 5 of Witch Hat Atelier, saying that "All are helpless before the power of a warm bed" which is objectively true and why Richeh is the best.

Seeing this in the OP for Witch Hat Atelier, and internally screaming while my friends watch in total ignorance.
Why you gotta do this to me, Witch Hat Atelier? This is so pretty and so bordering on spoiler territory.

"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adults—Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe—living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.
Now that I think about it, Osaka would probably be Phoebe.

Are they going to delete the post? Maybe. Anyway, here's context for the future.
Some doofus posted: "Writers if you could drop your novel or short story into an AI and have it make a great and watchable movie out of your story,  and you could sell that movie, would you do it?"
