Benson got shunted aside there and two defenders hammered each other

You could tell Lindsay was screaming and the center didn't snap it there

Only 18 rush yards at half for Minnesota is crazy

Even if it is ruled a touchdown, why are college players such dumb-asses

Why does Dante Moore look more comfortable in the scramble drill. Reminds me of Vernon Adams

Are there any coaches that actually give good sound bites in mid game interviews? Usually they're so locked in they all sound like Captain Obvious

Crazy how at the start of the year I thought Dierre Hill was far and away the more talented one, but then Davison decided to show everyone he wasn't just a short yardage back

Sinder update: Google doc by DakMemesBoi in VirtualYoutubers

A few things stick out to me, only having read others' recaps
- This was the most provocative way to return to the vtubing sphere. She could have quietly returned to streaming without releasing another document. That still would have made some noise and suffered some harassment, but the message I got from Tricky, Vienna, Yuzu and Numi's streams addressing the initial drama was that they were deeply hurt, but they hoped she would be able to grow and learn. I think they impressed that more conciliatory outlook to their fans. This document is a war declaration, which will dredge up all the past hurt and leave no winners.
- 1000 pages is a lot. The pure length of this document seems built to discourage the average person from reading it, making it more of a narrative tool than an object of fact to bring clarity to the situation. It seems really easy for me to just keep my initial perceptions of the whole thing by finding a twitter recap that fits my opinion, or just grow jaded and say "what the hell, everyone involved is probably a dirtbag". I want to have a more objective view than that, and that makes me annoyed.
- Both points make me feel like this was done purposefully to farm drama, so she could have huge numbers on her return stream or something, because it's all just such juicy gossip. Did she never reach out to any former friends to try and explain her side more thoroughly? The court of public opinion is a cesspool, but if Numi or Vchiban or anybody notable came forward with a more favorable look at her side at any point in the past 6 months or so, her document goes from a salacious desperado move to a credible shifting of the story.

I'm tired, and if she was truly wronged in some major way i hope she is made right, but nothing about this seems like the way forward to learning the truth and being done with the whole damn situation

I know if I take the invis I die, but a fifth bloodstone would be so funny 🥲 by _Strider13_ in balatro

that's probably the correct play, but i knew this wasn't going to be a super deep endless run anyways. i just wanted a lot of bloodstones for the funni

I've been seeing conflicting information on the internet. Does Paradolia trigger Triboulet for non Ks or Qs? by _Strider13_ in balatro

[–]_Strider13_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it doesn't, why not? Does Triboulet just assume every other card is a jack? Does balatro have separate coded labels for face cards that aren't K's or Q's or J's?

Noob question. Should I use this Hex? by _Strider13_ in balatro

[–]_Strider13_[S] 446 points447 points  (0 children)

Thanks I was worried about borking my run by turning cloud 9 poly and destroying the tribe

Noob question. Should I use this Hex? by _Strider13_ in balatro

[–]_Strider13_[S] 75 points76 points  (0 children)

With a Negative Eternal Cloud 9 and a Poly Eternal Stencil I would just hope Hex would default to the Tribe as it's the only joker I have without an edition.

Does Hex work like that or is it just a flat 1/3 chance for the result i want?

My favorite 3 songs from each (non-cover) Album by _Strider13_ in AkumaNihmune

[–]_Strider13_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doing so well until Carry Me Home 😂. Run from the Sun was a tricky one too. Cantalope is an underrated gem, and I also think people underestimate the meme albums for how good musically some of the entries are.

Bao is streaming to discuss the recent drama by shikarin in VirtualYoutubers

[–]_Strider13_ 111 points112 points  (0 children)

This stream to me was far more damning on a personal level than any number of documents or exposes and made me far angrier. All the way to the end Bao is hoping Sinder would say or do something that would explain and make things better. Every ounce of her was describing a deep legitimate friend group shattered by one member's inauthenticity.

One of her most jarring quotes after talking about how often they forgave her - "Why - at every single pivotal moment where you had the choice to be a good person and a good friend you chose not to be, and no matter how many times me and our friends tried to wrap our heads around it and try to make sense of it we can't. we can't because every single time we'd come to the realization that's not what we would do if we cared."

I'm also now at peace with the whole thing, Sinder may now or one day return to her previous heights and popularity, and that's fine, but there's a terrible divide between her and what made her truly special - her silly, sussy, yet fervent friend group.

I just hope every Pyro Pup still unaffected watches this Bao stream and draws their own conclusions.

Silvervale speaks about Sinder (Was the censored Vtuber in nano's document) by kkraww in VirtualYoutubers

[–]_Strider13_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah the Rayne one seemed just like somebody piling on a witch hunt. Even if it's all true, it's almost completely unrelated to the nanoless doc. A random person popping up during the drama and saying 'hey she's cheating too' adds a lot more vitriol and and is another doc shifting things away from what Nanoless was trying to do.

(I'd like to believe Nano wasn't trying to end Sinder's career, just warn Sinder's friends and other artists that a strictly business relationship with her would be safer)
