Dynamite gets close to beating Raw in the prime demo and suddenly I get something I want

It's because of the federal election. Conservative Premieres are hiding out so they don't indirectly damage O'Toole's run. Got my Vaccine Passport. I like these things for international travel but I don't like these things for ordinary everyday non-essential things and hope they disappear sometime soon. They both won't affect me either way though.

Whoa

They're totally getting sold soon anyways

31) Metroid Zero Mission (9:23:12, 100%) 32) Metroid Fusion (07:05:00, 100%) 33) Metroid: Samus Returns (14:35:14, 100%, Normal Mode) 34 :gb: Donkey Kong '94. (100%) 35) Hey Pikmin! Kirby's Mass Attack with a very fitting Pikmin coat of paint. Also a little Yoshi's Island and sounded a little Donkey Kong Country. I prefer Pikmin this way as a puzzle platformer than as a strategy game, it removes the thinking element and is a chill play. Probably my favourite part is how they collect enlarged everyday objects and Olimar tries to guess what they are (like an Ink Pen is a "Peace Missile" and a Pawn chess piece is an "Unassuming Lighthouse") and they're amusing little write-ups. I hope more Pikmin games are made like this

31) Metroid Zero Mission (9:23:12, 100%) 32) Metroid Fusion (07:05:00, 100%) 33) Metroid: Samus Returns (14:35:14, 100%, Normal Mode) 34 :gb: Donkey Kong '94. Still fun as fuck, still weirdly timeless despite being on the Gameboy.

We're generally not very "American" about things for lack of a better word, but I do think there'll be pushback here from this covid passport stuff if it's in any way long-term.

Eh, we had one in BC last year during the thing, they'll probs just give more mail-in options so people who really want to vote but don't want to be in the crush of people will just avoid it anyways

Ayyyy, we just crossed the 70% fully vaccinated threshold for people over 11 years old. 80% of the population over 11 has at least one dose. -10%ish for both when you include under 11s. Not bad.

NXT: "No more midgets. No more guys starting in their 30s." RIP, NXT

Dragon Quest with more '90s shonen hype

Spoiler results plz, I'll try to watch that one eventually

Nope, but Darby Allin is from Seattle and Bryan is from Washington State too so there's a natural thing there. Any sane person knows in their soul that it's Punk but Tony Khan's goofed before and I can see ways it can be goofed

Punk took "Best in the World" from Danielson in the first place (who used it in RoH). After Christian's hype, I think Tony Khan could actually make that mistake

BIRTHED

Yeah. The under-11s drop everyone by about 10%. Not counting them, even the prairie provinces are hovering in the low-to-mid 70s for 1st doses, and you kind of assume any slowdown on getting the second is because of things being opened back up during summer or the younger demos just haven't been called yet for the second. The only Province/Territory that has over-12s in the 60% range is Nunavat, which collectively has the population of the town I live in. It's still probably too early but we're already inside or close to the initial herd-immunity range (60-70%?) and seem to be on pace to surpass it if it's deemed safe/necessary for young children. Govt stats page btw

Canada's overall number should reach 70% in the next two or three weeks unless things stall out, and that's without under-11s being able to get them.

31) Metroid Zero Mission (9:23:12, 100%) 32) Metroid Fusion (07:05:00, 100%) 33) Metroid: Samus Returns (14:35:14, 100%, Normal Mode) And 100%ed Fusion. It was easier to 100% than Zero Mission but more of a hassle to get around in the end-game Except for Other M and Pinball, I think I've played all of them now

31) Metroid Zero Mission (6:03:09, 100%) 32) Metroid Fusion (05:12:00, 61%) 33) Metroid: Samus Returns (14:35:14, 100%, Normal Mode) 100%ed Zero Mission, with assistance from a guide. I used save states on a few of set-ups for the these (like one where you have to light off a bomb and then screw attack multiple times while the bomb wall detonates itself) but I did manage to do them all eventually. Half the problem was just figuring out the proper controls, once I figured out that you just need to press forward on slopes to even yourself out and can press down to recharge it even while running flat, I managed to figure it out. Even managed to beat the last boss only losing two full health tanks eventually. This is also the first time I've gotten an ending in a Metroid with Samus taking off any pieces of her armour

Ayyyyy second shot, when does Ultra Instinct kick in?

31) Metroid Zero Mission (6:03:09, 71%) 32) Metroid Fusion (05:12:00, 61%) 33) Metroid: Samus Returns (14:35:14, 100%, Normal Mode) Effing great game. This is exactly what I want a Metroid game to be. Searching for collectables and backtracking was rewarding, and I loved the scanning feature meaning not having to parse through a faq at the end to see which collectables I missed. I liked the melee counter mechanic, was surprised how easy it was to die in this game, and still didn't like the boss fight battles as much, though at least the checkpoints made it easy to get back at it and recognize patterns quicker.

My list for this season: One Piece Pokemon Boruto Dragon Quest: Dai no Daibokan Digimon (I think it's the last season) Boku no Hero Academia Slime Kobayashi's Dragon Maid How A Realist Hero Saved The Kingdom (Almost dropped it) Girlfriend to Girlfriend (Almost dropped it) Goddess Dormitory I find it's a pretty weak overall season, combined with feeling a bit less in the mood for generic anime tropes and cliches at the moment. Gonna catch up on anime movies I've been meaning to watch instead before continuing with Bleach filler

I believe both. tfw got the Good Brothers, Andrade, and Danielson back, and almost got Joe back before he swerved (RIP ;_;) Just need AJ now (which I don't think that one's gonna happen) and Nigel to come out of retirement (def won't happen) and I've got all the guys I want back

>Tokyo Dome on the weekend >Ibushi has pneumonia It takes the worst luck in the universe to make Shingo the IWGP Heavyweight Champion, and he might even get a decent reign out of it because of even worse luck

31) Metroid Zero Mission (6:03:09, 71%) 32) Metroid Fusion (05:12:00, 61%) God damn, it felt like I collected 80% of the items, how THE SHIT did it just end up being 61%? I can understand why Metroid fans are a bit split on this one because it's so linear, but I really liked it. I'm a fan of exact mission directives and then side-exploration available (I think they could've allowed a bit more side-exploration). I was mostly having fun with the game up until a few bosses later on (the spider boss, the vine boss, and I think there was one other that really annoyed me). I'd gotten more used to the controls since playing Zero Mission, but some of the combinations were hurting my hands (the end boss with Charge Plasma was definitely activated some arthritis).
