The separation anxiety in these ring fingers is strong
Finger independence exercises suck
I think the healthiest thing I've ever come up with in my fight game career is the phrase
"just be nasty"
At all moments the solution is to just be nasty
Did I fuck up defending vs a set up? Could have been nasty
Drop a combo? Could have been nasty
In my latest for Playboy, I wrote about meat, masculinity, and "boy kibble," the trend of men eating a pack of unseasoned ground beef for dinner. I argue it's the perfect meal to illustrate the isolation and nihilism in our ultra-capitalist system www.playboy.com/read/lifesty...
I've mostly taken to quiet resignation at this point but I still do get a little sad when some of our oldest slang ends up breaking containment
black slang generates and aggregates meaning across decades of folkways and lived experiences. way before y'all saw the gladiator sandals on the innanet, we were noticing that every dude manning a grill had 'em on. taking it out of context erases that accumulated power.

really important context in this thread about..... why there are video games about some topics and not others
many such experiences when I was on the apps

unfortunately I am NOT to be trusted
Sorry past me...
Tonight I learned that trust is rewarded with betrayal. We won't be making that mistake again #VLR

DrifterDane: I'm tired of being shackled by Bedman. I want to be strong! I want to go to the top!

It’s been 3 weeks and I’m still dropping bnbs
It’s a little baffling how adding a couple frames of delay has tanked my execution

I EMPHATICALLY REITERATE!!!
I won’t say who it was but I was playing a Ky and my hitbox fell mid combo in a spot that is essentially undroppable. They were churning DP on hit. There’s no hope for them.
Nah they wouldn’t make it on Jam
This is my first time seeing this and I would like to go back to sleep now
Staycation next week and I keep telling myself that I'll finish a new novel. Just leaving this here to either be happy or annoyed with myself in about 10 days.

Can't sleep and all I can think about is how inept I am at clicking a mouse. Zero Escape will the be the death of me.
Almost did some REAL hater shit today and honestly I’m a little relieved that that part of me is just dormant and not dead
Been thinking about this sentence and how people who are on the outside looking in miss the point. "This game sucks" is very much in the same vein as saying hi to a close friend by calling them a "bitch"
There's a familiarity and appreciation there that's lost on 3rd parties
I forgot how nice it is to go to bed early on a weekend

it’s so funny that we call them “normies” but if you have like a 2-minute convo with an offline person, they’ll start telling you about how god turned the muppets gay because we took prayer out of school or some shit
