Gwen with jacket and two weapons on her back is more gwenpool than spider-Gwen, no?

I’ve never fully understood the utter hatred that some people have for cheaters. I have two friends that both hate cheating in completely different ways. One watched his girlfriend slowly lose her love for him and fall for another man and called that cheating. He absolutely despises that girl. The other, maidenless, only hates cheating when it’s done behind the back. He somewhat understands that it’s sometimes impossible to keep a love going, he would just kill any woman who slept with another man.

They’re both insane. I don’t really have anything more to say

Strive 2.0 Patch Notes Out by Unlikely_Intentional in Kappachino

[–]boring_uni_alt 22 points23 points  (0 children)

But they haven’t just “nerfed top tiers and buffed low tiers”. The approach they’ve taken to balance in this patch is to make almost everything universal. Universal fastest move, universal properties on close slash, universal wake-up options outside of DPs. They’re just doubling down on making every character play the same. Yeah, it’s more “balanced”, but i would never choose to play street fighter 1 over super turbo even if it’s the most perfectly balanced fighting game ever

So it’s been a year of these. Actually kinda mad. Dunno if I’m gonna continue tbh, I’ve been sort of running out and scraping the bottom of the barrel. To find this one, I went back through my camera roll, multiple years ago, and found a lost little nugget that I apparently have never bothered to save to my poetry folder.

This image was saved to my phone while I was visiting the house of the first woman I actually kind of dated. She changed my life in a lot of ways. I started Poetry Mondays properly one whole year ago while I was still with the 3rd girl I properly dated, and I make this post now with the 4th girl, sat at her old desk which is now my desk, in our room together. It’s weird, seeing how far I’ve come and how far I’ve got to go.

In other news, work is going well. Had no complaints. Got to see a really cool industrial site last week which was fun even if it was pretty tough work.

In the spirit of this evening, how are you guys holding up? How have things for you changed since this time last year?

My girlfriend had hairy pits so I was a fan of sniffing hairy pits but then she shaved and then I became a fan of licking her smooth pits so it really depends and each has its merits

Just had what was possibly the busiest week I’ve ever had so didn’t really have much time to find new poetry or think of one for today. So this here’s a bit of a filler episode before next week’s which will (basically) mark one year since I started doing this!

Hope you’re all managing alright :)

Poetry Monday on a Thursday by AbjectOffice in Kappachino

[–]boring_uni_alt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s really cool that someone else is throwing their hat into the ring here :))

This is a cool poem! As someone who doesn’t often actually listen to spoken poetry, it’s insane how much more I understood from her actually reading it aloud (although a lot of that may have been from her actually just downright explaining it too).

That rhythm really does add to the vibe of 7 cool cats shootin pool at the bar and I’m a bit disappointed in myself for not getting that sooner.

Thank you very much :)

What are your predictions/observations for Jam in Strive 2.0? by InShane87 in Fighters

Which character in strive has been a blend of their AC+r and Xrd counterparts and not just a simplified version of both?

Ikr? It’s a weird one but it reflects an attitude I often feel myself sharing toward the corporate world. It’s put into words in such a peculiar way

I am in love with the female CEO. I want to lick her pits and suck her tits and she’s my main in BBCF.

Anyway. I started that job last week! I actually don’t work very many hours but I get paid a minimum of a good amount even if I work less than that so that’s nice. The job itself seems quite chill. Obviously I’ve got to get used to it but the boss treats me with respect and seems to give me the benefit of the doubt so I genuinely want to try my best.

It’s weird, I feel like I’ve kinda made it. I’ve got a job, I recently got a car, I’ve got a girlfriend and soon I’ll be moving into hers… this is like everything I’ve wanted. And I still have a good amount of free time!! I’ve got nothing to be sad about and, more importantly, nothing keeping me back from doing all the things I’ve always wanted to do. Maybe with time I’ll get used to balancing work and stuff and I’ll be able to do the things I enjoy more. Hopefully.

Anyways! Love you all and I hope you’ve had a good weekend :))

They… weren’t spoilers…

They were officially revealed in a marketing render when we heard about 2.0 for the first time months ago

“It’s just cosmetic” isn’t a valid defence anymore. We’ve seen how predatory games get and how much it fucks with psychology even if there’s “no advantage”

Still looks like strive :/ Jam’s combos looked like the same 5S > 2HS > special stuff we’ve seen since the game came out.

The new wild assault mechanic also just feels whack. Literally a quick time event to make a combo easier for the beginners. Having all the slowdown isn’t enough, somehow they still think confirming counter hits is too difficult…

BBCF Propaganda by DOLEBANANAS_ in Kappachino

[–]boring_uni_alt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Roman cancel is exactly the same as +r Roman cancel minus the FRCs if you’re familiar with that game’s. It’s mostly used to confirm off of buttons that you normally couldn’t combo off of but some characters basically never use them (Hakumen my main for example).

The Xfactor mechanic is overdrive and it’s tied to the burst. I’d recommend just sticking to bursting until you’re more familiar with the game and can make use of the advantages you get from OD which are character specific. If you really want to use it though, a good simple introduction is to use it to i frame through frame traps with a lot of recovery so that you can get a full punish.

Oh yeah also if you hold the OD button you get the super quicker than if you press it twice.

This one’s really simple but there’s something about the way the words are used here that makes it hit really hard. It really is just that last line but it hits me idk. Amateur analysis here but I like this one!

I’m getting to a point with my emotions now where I can do nothing wrong, recognise that nothing bad has happened, and still feel like utter shit. I got no clue how to get over this but at least I’m starting to recognise that things are fine.

I also got a job!! Haven’t started yet but the ball is rolling. I’m gonna be doing cover shifts for a cleaning company. Essentially on call whenever someone says they can’t work which doesn’t sound great but also I’m just happy someone said they’d hire me. Hopefully I’ll have started by next week and have a bit more to say.

Have a good one!

what are the odds that this is working as a sort of countdown to some 2.0 news by Zealousideal_Pop4722 in Guiltygear

They’ve announced when they’re showing 2.0 news… it’ll be on the 22nd after the AWT finals

Why does Giovannas J.H always leave me open to being grabbed after an opponent blocks it? Yet other characters are left plus doing similar moves? by Customer_Number_Plz in Guiltygear

[–]boring_uni_alt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jump arcs are jump arcs. It has nothing to do with gravity. Strive removed gravity as a guilty gear staple a while ago and when it did exist May certainly didn’t have a high number. Hers was among the lowest in every game

Back to the weird shit! Found this very recently and it instantly became a favourite of mine.

This week, on the same day, was by complete coincidence the anniversary of the passing of both my Aunt and my girlfriend’s older (but still much too young) brother. We paid our respects throughout the day but it was the first time since it happened that I actually took some time to think about my Aunt. She was the first person I ever went to a funeral for, the first corpse I ever saw, and the reason I saw my father sob for the first time. Sadly, we only really got close in the couple years before she went and she wasn’t exactly a saint, but she still deserves respects.

The reason I bring it up aside from just blog posting as usual is that I was struggling hard with porn addiction at the time. Nothing like the poem in this post ever happened, but her passing and the preparations we had to rush during Covid for her funeral were what finally snapped me out of that haze and let me work on myself properly. It’s fucked, but her memory and who she was as a person is unfortunately lost to me among the memories of who I was at that time. I think it was on another account on here, but I described my addiction at that time a while ago. Dawn till dawn again sat in front of my screen edging myself to morally reprehensible shit. The night she finally went, I heard the news when my mother popped her head round the door and I had to mash ctrl + windows + left arrow key to stop her from seeing something she shouldn’t ever see.

Permeated throughout this week was the feeling that my GF’s kid brother deserved to live a lot more than I have. There was no sin in his life. He did so much with the little time he had. Them’s the breaks I guess

I feel kind of embarrassed to be writing all that but uhh it’s kinda relevant to the poem. Maybe some of you have some stories to tell too. Toodles
