They made some great additions, that's for sure!

Bo Bichette is instantly my new favourite player. The Jays have gotten way more fun to watch lately. Gonna miss Stroman though.

I'm OK if he dies

They blow the game today and then the trade is announced. Fucking rough. UGH.

Aaron Sanchez is actually pitching kinda good lately, which is weird considering how bad he's been for most of the year. I thought he was cooked. And Stroman's been great lately. Some really strong starts. I hope they keep and extend Stroman. But if another team sees something in Sanchez that makes them think he could be good for them, I think the Jays should take whatever they can get for him. Not likely to happen though since he's been so bad up until, like, last week...

I've been on vacation for a week so I haven't been playing anything. Didn't even bring the Switch with us. But now that we're back home and I'm going to be back to my usual routine, I have a few more tracks to wrap up in Radio Hammer Station one night this week. And I got a good deal on the Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection while I was out shopping in my hometown earlier this week, so I guess there is some SF in my future

Taiju is pretty much carrying this show for me. Dude's the man. Still don't like Senku (plz stop the "ten billion" schtick). And while part of me admires Tsukasa for the not wanting to bring back the adults thing, it just doesn't make sense how overpowered he is. Or that he was so easily able to figure out what Senku's plan was. Like obviously this is an anime and it doesn't have to be realistic or believable, but this guy is pushing it pretty far...

Radio Hammer Station, it's a goofy little rhythm game. I think I'm almost 3/4 of the way through story mode. Some solid tunes. No vocals in any of the music so far, which I really appreciate. Got my eye on the Kill la Kill game coming out later this month. Not sure yet if I wanna get it.

A while back I was planning to get one of the USB adaptor thingys to use a DS4 controller with my Switch, but I got rid of my DS4 when I sold my PSTV (RIP my Vita/PSTV stuff ) so that was no longer an option. For the most part I'm okay just using the joy cons, but there are times when the asymmetrical design of Switch controllers really bugs me. I like it better when the analog sticks are directly across from each other. When I saw this controller in Best Buy the other day it caught my eye. So far so good. I like it.

I think it's doubtful that ad revenue alone would cover Crunchyroll's operating costs. I don't think their competitors can get away with not paywalling content either.

Picked up one of these things today: I'm looking forward to testing it out! (wrong pic - I got the Bluetooth version - but whatever...)

The ads are unfortunate I guess, but you didn't expect everything to be immediately available for free did you? They gotta make money somehow. A premium membership isn't even very expensive. Less $$$ per month than Netflix or Spotify IIRC. It's not a bad deal to get all the latest anime that they have licensed, ad free. (+ a kinda shitty selection of manga ... easy way to stay current with SnK at least!)

I'm more on board with Tsukasa's plan than Senku's Still can't stand Senku and the way he is written. Taiju is alright though. "Yuzuriha doesn't have a dick!" I fuckin died

Cytus ? and VOEZ Rhythm games are great for short bursts of gaming. I usually don't have more than 20 minutes before the family interrupts me. Final Fantasy V on SNES emu for the Four Job Fiesta. I sneak 10-15 minutes here and there when it's quiet at work. I know this game inside and out so I make pretty heavy use of fast forward to get lots done in little time. Thinking about getting back into NBA Playgrounds 2 Those games are fun and quick. Might as well see if I can win the Raps another title

Finally getting to the bits I missed in the later movies. I loved the part where Sayla finally gets angry and starts wasting dudes as they try to attack her house. Also, the scene a bit before that where Crowly sings a song and then it cuts to the Eden Club's neon sign going out was low-key one of the saddest scenes in The Origin Gotta wait now for the next episode though...

Depending on what games it supports / doesn't support (I don't know if there's going to be a different like 3DS vs. New 3DS?) I might prefer the Switch Lite to my regular Switch. I put away the dock a while back because I never play it on the TV anyhow.

Sacred Beasts, on the other hand, I'm pretty into it so far. The story ain't great or anything, but I liked the twists in the first episode of dude getting screwed over by his girl and then her getting backstabbed by the other guy. I like the captain being on a mission to terminate all his men because that's what they swore they'd do. And I like the introduction of the defiant cute sidekick in episode #2. It's like a really weird anime spin on a buddy cop movie Start out hating each other but have to be partners, but they'll be buds by the end.

Fell asleep during this one I didn't find the 1st episodes of either this or Dr. Stone super compelling.

Victory #2 in the books. I had just barely enough max HP to take an Almagest as long as everybody had Shell status. It was close though. And I nearly screwed up my timing at the end and NeoExdeath got one Meteor off. Luckily only Faris got hit hard by it.

I think the Clippers were his goal all along. Nobody is reporting that Kawhi would have for sure stayed in Toronto had they pulled of that trade. So that's a pretty big question mark. What if they make the deal and Kawhi decides he still wants to be in L.A. anyways? I get the feeling that OKC was just using Toronto as leverage against the Clips.

I haven't watched yet but I was curious about it based on the PV. Good to hear that the animation is high quality, at least. But I was also interested in Dr. Stone based on the PV and after having watched the first episode, I'm not so sure about it. After watching a full episode I realized I didn't like the character designs, and I my first impression of Senku is especially not good. Kinda hard to enjoy a show when you think the main character is a dipshit I'll give it one, max two more episodes. Looking pretty drop-worthy right now though...

If the condition was "get another superstar and I'll sign" then I don't think the Raptors had a way to match that kind of trade package. What OKC got for George is pretty nuts.

Kawhi to the Clippers, Danny Green to the Lakers... Raptors aren't running it back next year The Clips apparently traded a pretty big package for Paul George as well. SGA, Gallinari, and a bunch of picks. Seems like a really good haul for OKC.

I fucking love the Rals. Ramba Ral is the man. And Jimba Ral is a total nut
