New profile posts

I thought I'd post an update on my progress in Mario & Luigi: Brothership! I'm happy to report that I'm really enjoying the game.

Say what you want about Baby DK but he's at least cuter than Baby Kong

According to my dad, people's opinions about the Holland's Got Talent finals last Friday have been quite mixed. While I agree with a lot of people that a different act should have won, I'm still glad for the winner all the same, and for the rest of the stuff that people are saying about Got Talent, I feel people need to stop their pissing and moaning, because while I get that Got Talent is a cliché ridden concept, I still enjoy it much more than something like The Voice or Idols or something like that, because Got Talent at least has more variety compared to the other shows that are purely singer oriented.

Goldfish are easy pets to keep.

For them to live through their short life span of 10-20 years, you just need space for a 28+ gallon tank (bigger is better) that's at least 4 feet long so the fish can grow to its proper length at over 1 foot long and the tank has been already cycled for several weeks with a strong filter to deal with the high ammonia and help oxygenate the water, and the temperatures are kept low. Extra fish will be just 10 extra gallons, some goldfish can get lonely.

Don't put them in bowls, that's just putting a baby in a portapotty for life.

i have astigmatism lol

Love your new profile picture and name. It's a flashback to my childhood. I love Atlantis The Lost Empire and grew up with it. The sequel wasn't as good, but I liked that too.

Just so you know, Rugrats in Paris is currently free on YouTube, really good movie (Get an ad blocker first though if you don't want to be constantly interrupted)

for anyone that was wondering, i'm 99% sure my most listened artist of the week was The Smiths. i personally think it was warranted...

I know I haven't been here basically at all in like a month so let me just say there's a couple reasons for it. For one, over the course of October, I had a really big dropoff of my actual interest in being here so I decided to just step back for a while.

But then November started with me having to listen to a group of nine people shit on my writing style and be surprisingly ableist about it? All the things they said were bad about my story could just be chalked up to "This is something I struggle with because of my autism" and it hurt a lot because I couldn't defend myself.

And then the election happened and my spirit was completely broken. I'm still trying to come to terms with it because I'm terrified of a nationwide ban on trans rights, even though I still think the states that I'm associated with (Illinois and Massachusetts) will keep protections in place for trans people. Needless to say though, I'm very tired and scared.

I'll just have to see what happens with my life and the world and everything to determine if I'll ever come back fully. I might still drop in from time to time to finish out my term on the Poll Committee but things are pointing toward retirement right now.

If you do want to keep in touch with me, the best way to do that is by sending me a friend request on Discord. My username is multimediacelebritypoker and I have it open basically all the time.

Time to avoid Mario and Luigi spoilers like the plague

My tier list of the enemies I hate the MOST in Minecraft now that I've been playing it for a little bit LOL. These enemies are so freaking annoying.....I wish they didn't spawn at night. Like, I'm not that angry at them-but I do hate them. They greatly irritate me. LOL also each enemy I put down here will have an emoji depicting how angry it makes me. First second and third worst enemies will each have a trophy as well-gold for #1 most hated enemy, silver for #2 most hated enemy, and bronze for #3 most hated enemy.

1. Skeletons. They chase me and they shoot me with their arrows over and over again. Argh! I can't stand them.

2. Spiders. Everyone who knows me in real life knows I HATE spiders (they have SCARY looking faces!) and I hate them in this game, too. They're harder to kill than both zombies and skeletons combined. They seem to really hurt me, too, when they attack me. And they're really fast.

3. Zombies. They take so many hits to kill and if a horde of them advances on me I'm basically done for.

4. Creepers. They follow me around annoyingly and explode when I accidentally walk right in front of them. And if they explode next to me, they kill me.

5. The "Guardians" in the sea areas of the map. Even when they are not hunting me and I'm not even in the water at all, they still do that rip current attack thing with their mouths continually. It is so loud and when I'm near the water I can hear them doing it over and over again. I find the noise incredibly irritating.

So yeah, relatedly (did I use that term right?), I HATE all of the annoying enemies in Minecraft, so killing them understandably makes me very happy. Also may I add that the most irritating thing ever in Minecraft is when I'm trying to chop down trees to build my house, and zombies and skeletons and other enemies attack me while I'm doing that and gang up on me so they kill me and I have to respawn and have to literally walk all the way back to where the tree was I was cutting down? Ugh......

Anyway yeah LOL. I hate these enemies so much in Minecraft. What are some of your Minecraft enemies you hate the most? Can anyone relate to all of this?

Your pfp looks like a creation or form of Antasma

You want my treasure? You can have it.

Just a little reminder that anyone can jump into the Game Changer and earn points! It's fun and will only take a minute or two of your time. I want to keep a fairly fast pace so if anyone online feels like tuning in every now and then I would super appreciate it! https://www.marioboards.com/threads/47978/

Nintendo's recently released their sales figures, and one of my favourite things is this from their presentation slide:

I know it's not much but I revel in the fact that Mario Party is big enough to be placed side-by-side with the other two greats, Super Mario and Mario Kart. Mario Party is a favourite series of mine so to see it get an upgrade in how Nintendo sees it is very reassuring, not only for its popularity but for its future. If Jamboree sales were added (note that the sales were up to September 2024, before Jamboree released), it could very easily sell better than Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (at 35 million currently).

The only thing missing is comparing the series with their 3DS+Wii U games, because I want to know how well (or not) their 3DS Mario Party games did overall, since Star Rush and Top 100 didn't reach a million. Note that Kirby, Metroid, Xenoblade, and Pikmin have this comparisons so we were able to get a rough idea on how well their less-popular games like Hey! Pikmin and Kirby Battle Royale sold (the former definitely would be good to have a Switch port even if it's not popular with fans, so that every Pikmin game that's not the mobile one gets to be on Switch).

Thank you for reading.

Sorry for the hiatus again... school is school. Although I just got the perfect thing to say. Mods, if/when you read this, I want you to know that you all are most likely the purest and kindest team to work a forumI'll ever have the pleasure to meet. I don't need to explain it, I'm sure everyone knows why. But... thank you, moderators and patrollers and everything, for being a person with heart, kindness, and compassion

I've sustained a workplace injury from excessive repetitive motions several months ago and just now I got my CA-2 approved so that's cool. My right forearm hasn't felt the same since I first felt it all the way back in June.

I like how you're a big fan of Mario Kart Wii. I loved playing that as a teenager against my dad all the time. First Mariokart game I ever owned-first one I ever played was one they had at the orthodontist's office for the kids to play back when I still had braces (I HATED having those on my teeth lol).

If Yoshis were real, how would you get on one to ride it?

hi quen!! i missed u gurl

Sometimes I can't tell if Brawl in the Family's depiction of Waluigi is generally a good thing or bad thing for the reputation of the character.

I guess it's good in that it's a popular webcomic so making Waluigi one of the standout characters augments his popularity, and he's kind of funny.

But it could also be bad because he is depicted as the most repulsive and unwanted thing in the world, and he also is drawn purposefully much uglier than usual as his regular depiction.

I am probably inclined to think that there is some good with it, but... I can't deny that negative influences exist.

Thank you for reading.

I just beat the 193 United Nations Member States quiz. It's on the website Seterra if any of you would like to try that or other map quizzes.

Any serious villlain should familiarize himself with potential lands to conquer and influence should he not?

Dun-DUN! "Leave it to-a me!"

grieve and take care of yourself today so you have energy for tomorrow's fight

If you want to cry, do it, let your emotions flow out so you can be relieved, that's what your tears are there for
