    silly inconsequential things that make you like or dislike someone more

    Positive: Likes lemonade. Negative: Is fixated on the Crusades/the DEUS VULT meme/Christian power metal.

    Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 In-Game Tier List (Reboot)

    You've correctly identified strong areas for Magnemite, but IGTs are based on efficiency, which affects how much certain strengths are weighted compared to others. Yes, a great defensive typing and easy Thunder Wave are points in Magnemite's favor, but a Pokémon that has to go on the defensive...

    Social Neurodiversity

    The namesake of the term, Hans Asperger, was associated with the Nazis during WW2, which has prompted a reevaluation of the term. A small amount of looking things up tells me that the diagnosis has been folded into the larger diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder.

    hey! whatcha listenin' to, hotshot? (no embedded videos please)

    Will Wood and the Tapeworms - Thermodynamic Lawyer Esq, G.F.D. I'd recommend listening to the Spotify version instead of the YT one, because the Spotify version is louder.

    Mario 64 DS would be a clear improvement over the original if it wasn't on a system that only has a d-pad. That shit is so awful that it pretty much kills the game for me. Playing it on 3DS is marginally better, but it treats the circle pad like a d-pad, so it's still not great. I'm aware that...

    Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 In-Game Tier List (Reboot)

    Finally finished my run, Jesus. Here are my nominations. I can provide logs upon request. Tepig -> B This one was interesting. I tried to test this the way I imagined a casual player would use it, which meant that the most advanced strategy I deployed was Work Up. I didn't use any of the more...

    What are the most defining moves of in-game playthroughs to you?

    Thunderbolt is a staple of pretty much every playthrough I do, regardless of game. It's a powerful, accurate, and spammable Electric move. This makes it great for dust-busting two of the most common types in Pokémon games: Water and Flying. Every region has at least a little bit of water, and...

    Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 In-Game Tier List (Reboot)

    I feel that the sequence break detailed here is too niche to be worth taking into consideration. In order to do this, the player has to: 1. Catch one of the three Pokémon in the game that learns Dive by level up and isn't a trade evolution. 2. Go to the Abyssal Ruins before they're supposed to...

    Noting here that I'm currently testing Tepig, Pidove, Elekid, Zorua, and Staryu.

    The Internet focuses too much on eccentric tech billionaire types like Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk and not enough on the executives at corporations like the big tobacco companies who rake in billions by convincing people to develop extremely dangerous addictions (like Billy Gifford, chairman...
