FUCK! I can't pull electric drill from my power tools booster packs! It's been months now. Guess I gotta buy from a scalper now :(

I've been flipping for the last 10 years and can tell you, this is the end of Pokemon.
When Nike started releasing too many Jordans, everyone stopped wearing them.
During covid, when Walmart started selling too many inflatable pools... everyone
stopped going there. When Rae Dunn pottery became overprinted, all the white
women stopped buying. Over printing is the sign of a failing business, and Pokemon
is on its last legs. As for me, I'm going to try and return all this inventory. It's useless
and no one is buying. Plan on shifting to reselling power tools next. Extremely
untapped market and builders have infinite money.

Been poking my head back into Pokemon TCG stuff. As a circus and clown enjoyer, I absolutely gotta find a deck this can actually work with. I do honestly have an idea but I have a feeling it will not be able to keep up remotely with the meta. Still... The temptation is strong...

Harlequin Pokemon Card, shows a clown juggling pokeballs.

"Each player shuffles their hand into their deck. Then, flip a coin. If heads, you draw 5 cards, and your opponent draws 3 cards. If tails, you draw 3 cards and your opponent draws 5 cards."

I think the guy who runs the ferry has a crush on some girl?!? Said something about her leaving on a trip on the 12th. Gotta remember to stop in then.

I did a lot more fishing and bug catching today! Through my exploration, I found the local little graveyard. It was quiet, but pretty. I also learned you can go swimming in the ocean?!? I found a cool bottlecap of some kind at the bottom!

I met Yasuko on a ferry to my lil summer getaway. She's a bit older than me, but stopped by to invite me over to visit. On the way to her place, I got a fishing rod! Caught a few random lil fishies, and caught a bunch of new bugs! I also met her younger sister, who thinks boys are gross. Rude!

Yasuko says to the little boy who is my player character, "For what it's worth, this place is a bit depressing for kids."

My first day wasn't too eventful. The controls were a little awkward to get used to at first, but I was able to get around the house some and explore a bit outside of the place my Aunt and Uncle have that I'm staying at while my Mom gives birth.

A diary that looks like it has been drawn on in crayon, showing a young boy. Text reads, "I finally made it to my uncle's beach house! The big summery sun shined down the whole way to Fumi. Listening close from my bed at night, I can hear the sound of waves."

If you aren't watching Candy Caries, you're missing out on some incredibly stylistic animation (and a lot of fun!) From the same director who made Pui Pui Molcar, so ya know it's good~

Sorry Harlock, the actually answer to this question is, "No, absolutely not, go back to get them immediately." What the absolute fuck is wrong with your space pirate?!?

Sorry Little Mac, gotta be real, you probably can't win this one. She has immense plot armor and basically cannot lose. Your only chance is if she's suffering from an emotional existential crisis of some kind. Her grandpa makes that happen a lot, but we can't count on it. Try not to get flipped!

It's really cool how Captain Harlock managed to make a space pirate crew primarily composed of people with dwarfism.

A picture showing Captain Harlock and several members of his crew standing near each other, looking out at Venus. Two of the men standing next to everyone else have the proportions that someone with dwarfism might have.

I've done it! With the help of an old TV Guardian, all VHS and LaserDisc movies I stream for friends can have closed captions on display!!!

An OBS window showing a VHS playing. You can see the closed captions displayed over the video, they are clear and easy to read with an almost transparent background.
