Gposing has no right being as enjoyable as it is. Here, have an elf.
Right around 2 weeks now of maintaining this weight and feeling very accomplished. Giving myself a +/- 2.5lbs buffer (because weight is weird and fickle at the best of times) has been good for the mental.
Finally have all 6 commander decks to a "built" state and cataloged on Moxfield. Another project complete 🙏 (profusely patting my past self on the back for getting a set of 4 Cyclonic Rift back in the day)
Oh, yeah. I hit my goal of 200lbs last weekend. Now for the fun of normalizing calorie intake for building muscle a bit.
Twitch (and by extension Amazon) can fuck aaaallllll the way off with this Gen-AI training bullshit. It's on by default, so go to your account security settings to disable. Can't disable it on the mobile app either, gotta be the webpage.
What Pokémon would you choose as your first partner that isn't a starter?
Four favorite video game villains 🎮 Emet-Selch - FFXIV Saren - Mass Effect Ketheric Thorm - Baldur's Gate 3 Kazuya Mishima - Tekken
Brain needed a break from work, so I did this during an extended hold. Glaring omissions on my part include: Pokémon, Metal: Hellsinger, and Total War. grids.fun/t/about-me-v...
Work took its toll and killed my enthusiasm for both streaming and Tekken, so instead I tinkered more tonight. And now we got ourselves a working scoreboard. 👀
Amuses me to no end that Tribes Ascend is still my second-most played game on Steam despite not having touched it since 2015. Though Tekken 8 is only 18hrs behind it 👀
2 cents on the Tekken patch: It's not as egregious as launch S2. Some good changes, some confusing changes, some (likely) bugs. While the noises from the kitchen might be a bit concerning at times, I'm gonna wait to see what they're cooking because it's still my favorite restaurant. More to come?
Welp, not doing great on my New Year's resolution to play ranked at least once a week (tonight was my first time since December). But S2 I definitely have played more Tekken in total than any other year ever. Here's to S3 and hopefully new heights. And hooray for Miary existing. 🙏
Alright, locking in with these. Time to actually learn a tag fighter 🙏 #dbfz
Call me fuckin' heartless, but I don't for a second believe any of these accounts are legitimate. And frankly, trying to appeal to people's empathy in order to con them out of their money is some of the scummiest shit imaginable.
Oh yeah, it's all coming together. (Totally lost track of time farming last night)
Season's Beatings! 👊 19-game winstreak starting in Mighty Ruler to blow past my previous peak of Fujin! #Tekken
If you post AI generated bullshit, just know that I am absolutely actively mocking you. And if you follow me, I will block you just as fast as I block right-wing chuds.
Oh yeah, that's the good stuff. Time to get that MR pumped 💪 #Warframe
So, Shape of Dreams SLAPS. Never thought I'd be one for roguelikes, but between Vampire Survivors, Ravenswatch, and now this - Yeah, they're sick.
Steam Wrapped 2025! Feel like I did well enough keeping consistent on Tekken practice. Gotta turn up the pace for the next 5 months though.
Right? Was very "eugh..." until we saw the dev icon 🤣. Literally the meme:
