I watched less wrestling than ever last year so itโ€™s just going to be a bunch of AEW guys and, like, Ben the Bean, but the list needs my basic bitch opinions in the mix!

Every year I say Iโ€™m going to make my VP100 list early, and I always forget until thereโ€™s like one day left.

I wrote this and then started Act III for the first time, and my god this game is so much meaner. The cruelty is so much more impactful. I love it.

Iโ€™m just realizing I should have said:
โ€”

Goodbye, cruel world.

Hello, cruel world!

โ€”
Alas.

The gameโ€™s really good, by the way! Intensely familiar but constantly surprising. I keep saying โ€œOh thatโ€™s a cool change!โ€ over and over again.

Iโ€™ve done all kinds of stuff, including a trilogy of books using public domain characters. The paperback of the first two books is only six bucks, and a guaranteed conversation starter!

Itโ€™s an incredibly unique and incredibly stupid story. I couldnโ€™t be prouder.

A midi player that replicates the Game Boy speakers for accuracy is the kind of cool that caught me off guard, where I didnโ€™t even know I wanted it until they mentioned it.

But the cartridges are idiotic. Itโ€™s sort of neat, but having to change carts every song is off-the-charts dumb. It ruins it.

I do not have the reach of a gaming website, but if itโ€™s something you want to write and you need an excuse Iโ€™ve got a zine for ultra-niche passion projects and would love to read/publish it.

My DMs are always open for this or anything else thatโ€™s making your brain itch!

Thatโ€™s cool, but god itโ€™s bothering me that itโ€™s not 141 2/3%.

How did they end up with 159? The numbers lie, Capcom! SHOW ME YOUR MATH!

As a former weird kid/current weird adult, I love how strongly youโ€™re supporting that aspect of him and helping him become the raddest version of himself.

Iโ€™ve got a zine show in April; time to force issue 7 on my bad ideas zine These Are All Inadequate into existence. Iโ€™m looking for submissions until the end of March. DMs open.

Perhaps take a moment today to think of something youโ€™re passionate about, & consider writing or drawing about it for me!

โ€œExistence is Godโ€™s sinโ€ is a hell of a spiritual starting point. Iโ€™m just rolling it around in my brain, letting it pop for a bit.

I donโ€™t know, Iโ€™m still hoping to see Claudio unleashed. I need him to find that final boss energy we havenโ€™t seen since he tried to gatekeep Sami Zayn in NXT.
