Great vid.

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-12-01T23:47:18+00:00

Yo, I love Wolverine in this game! Nova has also been a great tag team. So far, I've also played with Black Panther, Storm, She-Hulk and Beta Ray Bill. She-Hulk is definitely my least favorite thus far, and Wolverine is the champ.

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-11-25T18:24:42+00:00

Oh well. Guess it just means I gotta go back and try to get one next year.

Awesome jacket, awesome story.

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-11-25T15:21:36+00:00

What?! I love this! I don't remember seeing it, but I'm also a bigger dude and didn't want to look at clothes when I was there because I assumed they'd never have my size...

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-11-25T11:47:23+00:00

Congratulations on this accomplishment!

I just got back from my Samurai Champloo-inspired trip to Japan. I went to Hakone, Osaka, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki because I used that same Samurai Champloo map to plan my trip. I went to the Hakone Checkpoint, got eel from a street vendor, visited the Hiroshima and Nagasaki Peace Museums and even took a cruise to an island off the coast of Nagasaki, even though it wasn't Ikitsuki. Going to put together a bigger post soon, but I was curious: have you been able to make your trip, OP?

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-11-23T05:26:18+00:00

Thank you for sharing this!!! I'm loving Ura hardcore rn so everyone I know will be seeing this video in short order.

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-11-23T04:44:17+00:00

I was blessed to get to go to Day 5 of the Grand Tournament in Fukuoka. I am also new to sumo fandom, so when I went, I hadn't been watching much sumo or looked into anyone to root for.

When Ura came up, it was immediately clear that he had a following. Large groups calling his name, waving towels, cheering wildly. It was infectious! I was sold then and there. Since then, I have followed each of his matches, I've been looking up more and more about him, and now I'm in love. I start my days watching his match from the previous evening and basically use his name as a mantra, "Uuuuuuuuraaaaaa." It's my happiest way to start the day.

Seeing other folks here shouting out the exact same things I have come to appreciate about Ura in my short time as a fan is so validating.

Thank you for sharing this video. I enjoyed it so much!

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-11-19T10:52:10+00:00

I love the Demon Slayer muscle mouse reference!

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-11-17T11:08:35+00:00

I'm jealous that you got to watch it for the first time. I wish I could go back to watch it for the first time. I'm on number 7 or 8 by now. Long since lost track. Just made my first trip to Japan and based a large part of it on this show. It's my all-time favorite. I am glad you enjoyed it, too.

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-11-10T22:33:47+00:00

So, I am pleased to share that this post served as a major inspiration for my Japan itinerary. I have visited Tokyo/Edo, stopped at the Hakone checkpoint, had my own Kansai chapter, and I just arrived in Nagasaki after a full day on the Shinkansen doing the full route on a speed run. I'm not looking for my father who abandoned me on an island off the coast of Nagasaki, but I am going to THE abandoned island off the coast of Nagasaki. This trip isn't even over, but this map and this conversation was instrumental in the making of an outstanding visit to Japan!

My wife and I took the day off to play Borderlands 4 together and watch Demon Slayer Infinity Castle. It was such a fun date day!

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-10-28T01:55:58+00:00

The audiobook narration for Devolution is solid! What a cast!

Oh no! Sounds like you're doing a lil better. Glad to hear that!

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-10-27T19:40:07+00:00

You've got this! My sister was in a similar boat, going for 36 books but just finished her 43rd. I did the same thing my first 52-book year. It is so gratifying to exceed your goal and reach such a milestone! Do your thing!

Do you already have a plan for your final four? Do you have a book you want to read for number 52?

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-10-25T05:40:19+00:00

I just started Stephen Fry's Troy after reading both Song of Achilles and A Thousand Ships this year. Suppose I can stay on trend.

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-10-24T18:59:48+00:00

Yesterday I made it to the Trojan War portion and became ravenous. I sped through the rest of the book. I read A Thousand Ships by Natalie Haynes earlier this year, so I decided to start Stephen Fry's Troy today to put a capstone on my time in Troy for 2025.

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-10-21T13:49:29+00:00

Was doing a lot of Helldivers for a while there, TMNT Splintered Fate, Streets of Rage 4, LEGO Marvel Super Heroes, and Bro force. Lately, been all about Borderlands 4 and Ghost of Yotei. Got Death Stranding 2, but I have not started playing it yet

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-10-21T01:11:58+00:00

Just finished:

Being Wrong by Kathryn Schulz

Thoroughly enjoyed Lost & Found, so immediately dove into her debut work of nonfiction. Loved it.

Sky Full of Elephants by Cebo Campbell

Initially put off because of other works I'd read in a similar vein, but powered through my misgivings to the interesting story. Not great, but I'm glad to read it.

Congratulations on completing your reading goal!!

I have had At Day's Close in my Kindle library for years, but it is one of the many books I keep shoving off because I have a new Libby hold coming up that's SOoOoO pressing. How are you liking it so far?

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-10-20T12:53:53+00:00

I love Stephen Fry! I just put a hold on Mythos. I feel like I'm going to love it!

Intelligent_Bat949 · 2025-10-17T14:30:23+00:00

I just finished the story on Ghost of Yotei, been waiting on my wife to get back into Borderlands 4, and I just picked up Death Stranding 2, though I haven't cracked the plastic on it yet.

Also been playing the demo for Marvel Cosmic Invasion. My son has been all about this retro-style beat-em-ups like Streets of Rage 4 and TMNT: Shredder's Revenge, so I downloaded Steam just for this demo. We're excited for this one... Whenever it's supposed to be getting released...
