iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I’ve been revisiting Generation III of Pokemon with the release of FireRed and man, it’s pretty fun outside of the lack of QoL stuff I’ve gotten used to in modern generations. Never been a fan of the instrumentation of the GBA Pokemon games but the compositions are still solid.

Something that’s always been irksome is when some public figure is outed for doing something terrible, there are an alarming number of people claiming vindication because of their dislike of said figure for unrelated reasons. That makes it seem like they don’t actually care about the issue at hand.

I’m convinced that they are just trying to be on the wrong side of everything. I’m also convinced they’re that evil that they actually think they’re right.

RE: the Cornell allegations. People are claiming the accuser is a right-winger. It should go without saying but even if someone goose steps with the energy of a Rockette, sexual assault is bad and no one should wish it on anyone nor downplay credible allegations.

Trans rights is inherently a bodily autonomy issue. Just like abortion rights is. We can't have gender equity or reproductive freedom without trans rights. Full stop. You can yell at me and make up shit that you claim I've said if it makes you feel better. I don't care. I'm right. And you know it.

Ed Sheeran always gave the energy of a basic weak coward who doesn’t have the balls to stand up for what he believes in. Him not standing in solidarity with a fellow musician using his platform to advocate for ending a recognized genocide is just par for the course.

A reminder that you don’t have to consider the feelings of Charlie Kirk’s pearl clutching fans. These are the same people who love talking about how cool it is when their political opponents suffer or die. They uplifted a doughy killer because he killed people they don’t like. Fuck Kirk and them too

I don’t care what anyone says, I really like Pokémon Legends Z-A and its DLC. The game has its flaws but the way people talk about it they treat it like it murdered their dog

I like Robert but this is easy to say when you’re straight, white, probably financially secure already, and not a target of this administration. It’s not a culture war that’s being fought. They are passing real laws with real consequences out of contempt for those groups, not a distraction.

Miss Patti, a wealthy Black Woman, had no problem quickly dismissing & excluding tr*mp-supporting family members from her life, as she should. But you got no-backbone-having ass white folks out here still hand-wringing over the thought of ridding themselves of their tr*ump/gop-supporting relatives.

I’ve been practicing Tetris: The Grand Master 4 lately and it is a beast. I’m trying to get used to the TGM control scheme but it messes with my muscle memory because the tetrominos don’t move within the matrix like in the current world ruleset for Tetris. Nor do kicks work like the standard ruleset

“Bluesky is dying” No, there are plenty of active people here still. The problem is that there are a bunch of drama-addicted people who can’t stop using Twitter. I really don’t see the point of posting there when the whole site is infested with bots and cranks. It’s just 4chan with usernames now.

You know what? Yeah, I was happy there were less slurs and straight up bigotry online. That was a nice time online. I liked it when people who acted like assholes were ejected from spaces, not upheld or treated like serious actors. That was a fleeting period I liked. Call me soft or whatever.

Racist white leftists and their asskissing minority friends are gonna “woke 1.0 was crazy” into a new Jim Crow with the caveat that their student loans are paid off. It’s annoying that so many on the left are trying to cater to white supremacists to convert them.

Kinda wild how people are saying “we aren’t in woke 1.0 anymore” to try to appeal to their bigoted friends and family only to be rebuffed because you can’t appeal to these losers. Stop trying.

Supporting Israel should be a non-starter for any politician at this point. There is so much evidence of their evil documented by very reliable sources. Shouting “anti-semitism” at anyone criticizing the actions of a government and its military is obvious bad faith. The average person sees that now.

I tell you man. when I used to date, there were so many Black dudes who treated other Black men like competition instead of potential partners or even potential friends. Tons of 🦝ing in those spaces. They did not want other Black men around them. This is a prime example of that

People jump on the cases of Black voters but it’s gonna be white voters who are the biggest supporters of Republican candidates. Those same white voters are the relatives of the holier than thou white leftists who love to yell at people. They never criticize their own family, though

Gradius III was one of my favorite games growing up. It’s one of the first games I remember playing on the SNES. Unlike the arcade version, the Boss Parade gave each boss their own theme. This one is fitting for Crystal Core, who you fight second in the SNES version. youtu.be/A-Vxcove6PE?...
