Seeing someone else "MatPatify" LoreFi is like seeing new growth in a burned down forest.

Nature is healing and the YouTube ecosystem has adapted well to MatPat's extinction.

We not gonna talk about how Yugi Moto is the epitome of short king?

5 ft tall. King of games

Got all the ladies

Understood how to give the people what they wanted

A billionaire was obsessed with him so much he advance technology to such an insane degree just to duel his other half

Warning!!! World Men’s Handball Championship rant!!!

GUYS!!!!! I’m SO excited because tomorrow (Sun, Jan 29) Denmark will hopefully make World Cup history as the first country to win the Cup three times in a row!!! Not only that but they currently hold the record for most World Cup games in which they were undefeated (again in a row)!!!😀 I will admit that I think the game against Croatia in the Main Round should have been a win as well instead of a draw since there was a lot of messed up sh*t going on. I mean, it looked more like a battle to the death rather than a handball match. First of all, the Croatian players were a bit (a lot) too aggressive in defense, which leads me to my second point: There were at least two times where the referees should have pulled a red card or at least looked at the video in order to determine what the appropriate punishment would be... but it never happened. Let’s look at Mathias Gidsel as an example; he took several hits, slaps, and punches from the Croatian players, one of those (if I remember correctly) was a fist to the chest, JUST below his throat. You can agree with me or not I don’t care, but I’d say that one was just on the about the point of a red card, and if the referees had actually looked at the video then I’m about 83% sure they would have pulled a red card. This all leads to my third point: THEY NEVER LOOKED AT THE VIDEOS!!!!!!!!!!!!! SERIOUSLY, what good is it that they can look at the situations again (not to mention in slow-motion) in order to see what happened and what they might have missed if they’re not gonna use it?!?!?!?! Honestly, I hope the Danes will NEVER have to play a game with those two referees, because they were doing one Hell of a rotten job throughout the entire game.😡

Well, now that I got all of that out of my system, I don’t have much more left to say other than this; I can’t wait to watch the Final, and I wish the best of luck to both the Danish and the French teams, as well as the Spanish and the Swedish teams who will be playing for bronze. Pérez de Vargas (Spain’s preferred goalkeeper) was absolutely incredible yesterday in the Semi-Final against Denmark (Fri, Jan 27). He was a total beast and made some amazing saves... he was actually quite terrifying. Nothing but respect for that man🫡 On another note, Sweden will have to be without their star playmaker, Jim Gottfridsson, who has sustained an injury to his hand (pretty sure he broke it?) and will therefore not be playing. Something that is worth noting is that Gottfridsson was named World Handball Player 2022, so congratulations with that and I hope he’ll be back on the handball court soon.

Well, that’s the end of my rant. If you’re a handball fan like me and love to watch the exciting all-or-nothing-games then catch the World Cup Bronze game and Final on whatever sports channel you have. The Bronze game will be played at 6pm CET and the Final at 9pm CET.

Katniss is such an unreliable narrator. She says "Then something unexpected happens. At least, I don't expect it because I don't think of District 12 as a place that cares about me" girl you deliver strawberries to the Mayor, you hunt and trade for the district, when you fell at Prim being chosen someone caught you, when you went to Prim people parted for you, when you volunteered EVERYONE stopped. Idk how to tell you but I think you're a pillar of the community.

i just got here but sincerely what is wrong with dorian pavus. he’s a necromancer. he helped invent time travel with his phd supervisor; this is never touched upon again. he comes out to you in front of his homophobic dad by going “sex. with men. ever heard of it”. he’s canonically so good at magic that he can keep up with god in conversation about it. constantly complains about the weather and all while he has one tit out at all times. his backstory is that he’s simultaneously a delinquent and a girlboss. he’s an alcoholic. his facial hair is completely fucking indefensible. h

The manga industry, especially JUMP, needs to hurry up and do away with weekly scheduling for mangaka. There needs to better regulations put into place for their health and safety because this is pitiful. Two weeks - monthly updates should’ve already been the standard for the manga industry at this point. These money grabbers will only continue to put the lives of these artists at stake for the sake of capitalism unless some serious changes are implemented.

Listen, you know why Andrew loves Neil? Why Neil Abram Josten was the one Andrew would allow into his inner space, to allow growing roots where Andrew keeps the remaining fragments of his heart?

Because hardly anyone respects Andrew's boundaries. Renee does. Bee does. Wymack does. Andrew respects his own boundaries to the point of enforcing them at knife point.

But Neil? Neil Abram Josten?

He views Andrew's boundaries as sacred.

Renee, Bee, and Wymack would view crossing Andrew's boundaries as disrespectful at best and a violation at worst. They earned his trust that way.

But NEIL???

Neil views crossing Andrew's boundaries as a fucking sin. As blasphemous. A devoted disciple would sooner spit in their God's face than Neil ever conceiving of crossing Andrew's boundaries.

Some people would look at you erecting brick walls covered in barbed wire and would start looking for a good crack to aim a sledgehammer. Some people would watch you lock a door and try knocking, just once, to see if you'll open it for them. And some people would watch you draw a line in the sand and never dream of stepping over it.

Neil parked his ass on the other side of Andrew's barbed wired multi-layered brick wall surrounding his concrete bunker and stayed there, running his mouth. And when Andrew revealed the hidden door, Neil smiled, stayed put, and kept talking.

Andrew didn't fall for Neil because Neil wouldn't come in.

He fell because Neil waited for Andrew to come out, waited for Andrew to extend his hand, and waited for Andrew to lead him inside by his own volition.

And that's why Neil was the one who earned Andrew's "Stay".

On one hand, Young Justice is kind of neglected by the actual superheroes that should be looking out for them in a lot of crucial ways and very much failed by the adults around them

But on the other hand Red Tornado straight up hosts a parent-teacher conference where their respective legal guardians all show up, barring Batman who’s in traffic so Nightwing fills in instead because Robin’s dad does not know he’s a vigilante which is objectively hilarious

my contribution to the aftg twitter aus is i think andrew would post that tweet thats like "if the goalie saves more than 30 shots and their team still loses they should be allowed to chase their teammates around with hammers" and laila retweets it and the two of them strike up a friendship that consists solely of sending each other goalie related memes. very occasionally andrew sends laila a message after a trojan match that just says something like "nice save at 32mins 4secs" and laila doesnt know andrew well enough to know how absolutely groundbreaking it is that he would say that

I feel like Phil deserves more credit for keeping us alive during the drought (2020-2022) like, now we have the gaming channel and a whole phour it is easy to just forget when Dan was a fun surprise guest that popped up sometimes.

I don't think I could take another Hiatus, we've been spoiled.

I simply think that Steve "Asks Out Anyone He's Interested In No Matter How Many Times And How Badly He Strikes Out" Harrington and Eddie "Wears His Heart On His Sleeve, Tells The People Around Him Exactly How He Feels Without Prompting" Munson would, once they got even an inkling that they liked each other, have the fastest burn alive.

People who weren't gaming in the early 2000s sometimes have difficulty telling the Ratchet & Clank and Jak and Daxter franchises apart, but it's actually very simple: Ratchet is the creature you end up with when a furry can't decide what species they want their fursona to be, and Jak is what you get if you take this creature and shave it.
