Pause! Indiana Fever schedule for the next several games is wild when considering it on the rookie level. Nika finally getting her WNBA debut Wednesday (to guard CC lol). Then CC vs. Brink x Jackson. Then CC vs. Kate. Then CC vs. Reese x Cardoso (in her reg szn debut!). WNBA script writers made the rookie edition MESSY 🍿

The Deathnote Movies Are top tier and I will defend them with my life!

Rewatching the deathnote drama, years after it first came out, I can now absolutely appreciate it better.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING L EVEN MORE CUNTY THEN HE WAS BEFORE

Although I still can't appreciate what they did to Mello! WHY WAS THAT THE CHOICE THEY WENT WITH???

y'know, every day I'm glad I've mostly left the countryball community. mostly because I finally just stopped drawing spheres and now draw humanoid stuff! Big win for my art!!

imagine an X-Men Krakoa era show, but with the same amazing animation as Arcane, that would be insanely beautiful

In my mind both Logan and Janus are fans of The Count of Monte Cristo

Janus likes it for the revenge plot, Logan likes how intricate and detailed it is

Gonna need Holly Black to stop writing Elfhame books. I can't keep up with all these

i'm a big fan of tv shows where they do an episode from the POV of a side character and they're living in a completely different genre than the main character

[yeah-yeah-beebiss-1]

in case you were wondering how things went down at the pokemon world championships this weekend:

-during the top 8 of the TCG masters division, chilean player fernando cifuentes was running a gimmick deck that consisted exclusively of four iron thorns ex and a whole ton of control-focused trainer cards in a strategy that either completely shuts down opponents or shits the bed entirely

-through skillful play and some good luck, fernando made it through 2 days in a tournament with over 1100 players to get to the quarterfinals

-fernando lost 2-0 to ian robb, who was running regidrago vstar (widely considered one of the best decks in the current format)

-in an overexuberant victory celebration, ian did what can only be described as a jacking-off gesture, on a stream with tens of thousands of viewers run by a company with very firm player conduct expectations

-the judges determined that this warranted a penalty of game loss, but for some reason, rather than applying it to ian’s next game in the semifinals, they applied it to the one he had just won in the top 8

-(it should be noted that the prize money for making top 8 is $15k while top 4 is $20k, so this jerking gesture cost ian robb $5,000)

-nearly an hour after fernando came to terms with his loss and the end of an impressive run, he was told that he was to get back on stream because he’s now playing in the semifinals due to winning by default

-the player he was up against in the semifinals was playing a deck (miraidon) that happens to get shut down hard by iron thorns’s gimmick, so fernando wins the semifinals

-said player, jesse parker, had notably had an undefeated run throughout the whole tournament up to this point, and likely would have continued that streak had his intended semifinal opponent not gotten a game loss penalty for miming a lewd act on stream

-meanwhile, the other semifinal winner is japan’s seinosuke shiokawa, running a deck (roaring moon) that players had largely written off as underwhelming months ago

-the grand finals are on the following day, so saturday evening was abuzz with a lot of people baffled by the absurdity of the situation

-come sunday afternoon, the grand finals are set to begin, with fernando cifuentes running iron thorns and seinosuke shiokawa running roaring moon

-it should be noted here that the roaring moon deck doesn’t rely very much on abilities, so iron thorns’s gimmick has very little effect - this is basically an even matchup

-fernando wins the first game of the set, and seinosuke wins the second

-the third and final game of the set is a bonafide cheek-clencher, with both players reaching a state where a single KO will win the game, but fernando manages to clinch it at the last minute

-and that’s the story of how a guy pretending to jork it led to the first instance of a pokemon world champion who also lost the quarterfinals
