it is never that serious

Dexerto@dexerto.bsky.social

A drug dealer has been jailed after accepting Pokémon cards as payment from customers Police said officers are "on a mission to catch them all" after seizing the cards

Resident Evil movie was good wish there was a bit less jokes and more seriousness but overall the right direction for a video game movie imo Expand the already existing universe and tell alternative stories

Checking in: I'm a Pokémon shiny hunter who believes that Palestine should be free, GenAI should be abolished, everyone deserves the right to bodily autonomy, FUCK ICE, Trans rights are human rights, and love is love.

You know you'd think the tcg community would care more about how their product looks given trading cards have such awesome art on them but no they see it as a money making opportunity

If an annoying ass mon like Archaludon is gonna exist in pokemon champions can we at least get Sacred Sword on more guys or more special ground types than fucking stunfisk good lord

Pokemon Unite would benefit from removing 70% of the bullshit in that game It just looks like such a scam when they have 9 different ways to get money outta you such a damn shame

to add to everything i was saying last night, i think as a society we're just trying to move too fast and we just need to slow down and enjoy things. you aren't watching something if your attention is split and you're not actually soaking it in

ultimately it feels like people are trying to min-max their time and i get it. time is my worst enemy but ultimately i believe you are wasting your time by only half-experiencing something, to where you don't even remember any details because you weren't actually soaking it in

i will say i have a huge backlog of unfinished games that haunts me because of how i choose to consume video games. maybe that's something i need to adjust to be less rigid with having to experience every part of a game but i still prefer that to rushing through a game

it's okay to take your time with something. i used to speed through pokémon games, not read any dialogue, etc., but I enjoy gaming most when i take my time and i explore every nook and cranny. that's not to say you have to do the same but i think it's okay not to be the fastest or whatever

this may seem really obvious to a lot of you but as a content creator it feels like you have to be the first; otherwise no one gives a shit and that's just not true. being first can help but i think there is a lot of value in being thorough

This applies for second screen watching. For a while I’d turn my 2nd monitor off when I watched something just so I wasn’t distracted

I think everyone would benefit from forcing themself to fully engage with media Don’t pull out your phone when you’re watching a tv show or movie. Give it your full attention. You cannot multi task as well as you think

- “watching” a TV show on a second monitor while I work as truly watching it and I’d rather save the first watch for when I can fully engage with it. I don’t mind rewatching TV while I work but I usually have music, a podcast or a youtube video on

I’m talking about this because I just saw FFVII adding a fast forward button and I can only imagine there’s people that get bored of cutscenes and pull out their phone midway through 😭 brother those games are beautiful enjoy your cinematic video game

I struggle to watch TV shows alone because I’d rather spend my alone time playing games or creating If I’m watching something with someone else though I fully engage. It feels less like a “sub optimal” use of time because I’m spending it with someone. It means I watch less TV but I don’t see -

if it was 80% rng i don't think we'd have consistent top players, nice art tho

NeyKey@neykey.bsky.social

I don't know a damn thing about competitive Pokémon because I never understood why a game that's 80% RNG even has a competitive scene, but I'm super happy my little angel won the World Championship.

hehe hoho haha
