but they won't be good, or have a reasonable trajectory towards becoming good at some point

if i'm gonna spend any amount of time making something artistically, it has to be good, otherwise it's a waste of time

i'll listen to your stuff later i guess

I feel like this is just going to rally support from his base.

I don't think anyone expects the Republican led senate to actually remove him from office, so I'm not sure what they're trying to accomplish here.
we're trying to remove him from office, that's what

i know you said that already, but then in the same sentence, you said that you weren't sure, so i decided to remind you

imagine if we as a people only tried to accomplish things that were easy or expected

objectively speaking, this is a wonderful thing to have happened

it won't amount to anything because we have a red senate

but it's a little victory for those of us with common decency

are you trying to do a living dex? or you just want the zacian entry and call it a day
i guess i'm doing a semi-living dex thing, where i'd like to actually own every pokemon along with their dex entries, but i don't need to have every single member of the line--just the fully-evolved form

one of my friends did say he can hook me up with a zacian though, since he doesn't care

he's only on the sixth gym, though

Shiny Pumpkaboo I found a couple weeks ago (it's a Gourgeist now)
https://twitter.com/jacob_potila/status/1201971092631379968

Shiny Gastly I found a couple days ago (it's a Haunter now)
https://twitter.com/jacob_potila/status/1206716759631286272

the fact that they were glowing in the overworld is just a coincidence

both have the square animations, which are new to this gen, but it doesn't really mean anything

it's nice being able to clip these moments

i only need like 25 more pokemon to complete the dex, so maybe if i breed another shiny gastly or something, i'll be able to use that to leverage a zacian--otherwise, i'm not sure how i'm gonna get one of those

it's not a problem when grammar is intentionally broken to create an effect, though

or if it's a dialect thing, because that just lets you know where the band is from in a way

>i can't get no satisfaction

despite being an english band, the rolling stones were obviously inspired by a lot of old american blues bands, so the use of the double negative here contributes to the song's appeal by invoking (through dialect) the cool yet rough-around-the-edges attitude of the american south, from which this style of music originated

therefore it's cool

>can i be as my god am
>can you be as god am


this one is probably my favorite example of grammar being broken for the sake of wordplay

by using "am" instead of "is," layne staley creates a play on the term "goddamn," an expression of frustration at the difficulties of heroin addiction, while simultaneously asking if such difficulties can only be overcome by achieving god's level of power (or something like that)

so that's cool too

it's only ever a problem for me when it makes the singer sound like an actual dumbass

subjunctive clause violations are generally pretty forgivable, but nonetheless

roughly ordered, no gigantamax

pretty good dex all around, imo

so i beat the game, finally

6/10, i think

definitely the worst and most underwhelming games in the main series so far, but not as bad as reddit wants you to think

i have some more in-depth thoughts that i might divulge later, but i'll leave at this for now
what did you think of the battle against the unbeatable™ champion?

Spoiler
i actually found it enjoyable, i was surprised to see his team competently leveled with mine

 my strongest pokemon was only, like, 2 levels higher than his, and i barely won the battle with 2 (both badly weakened) pokes
yeah, i had a similar experience

Spoiler
despite what i said before about keeping myself from getting too overleveled, there eventually came a point where i kinda stopped giving a shit (around semi-finals, which is probably the lowest point in the game), and i was pretty much one-shotting everything in my path and not really caring

then the champion fight happened, and just like you, i was pleasantly surprised that his team was stronger than mine

i still stealth rocked the shit out of his charizard, though, so that was funny

i still have around 45 pokemon to get before my dex is complete, so i can see myself continuing to play for the foreseeable future, which i genuinely cannot say for a lot of games that i'd consider to be a 6/10

getting tired of one-shotting so many opponents
l've legit been on a rotation of 18 different pokémon just to stay beneath the levels of my opponents

it's been fun and all, but i've never had to try so hard to keep from being overleveled

not that i care about difficulty that much in a pokémon game, but still

Where can I watch these rebuilds
And what are they, reboots?
starts out like an HD remaster of the show, but then goes in a completely different direction by the second movie while attempting to explore the same general themes

it's like if anno took his meds for the first two, but the third one goes near-EoE levels of fucking insane

the fourth and final one is coming out in 2020

i watch everything on kissanime because i'm a sick animal

the only thing i wish they expanded on a teensy bit more, as far as Rei goes, is her vegetarianism

when she mentioned how she dislikes meat in that one episode, it's one of the few times pre-climax where she actually states an opinion about something, as innocuous as it may seem

it also made me like her more as a character for obvious reasons

Spoiler
they do end up expanding on this a bit in the rebuilds, which is probably my favorite thing about them
