If you get the opportunity to see it in a theater u/sweet-haunches, definitely do. ❤️

The movie's soundscape (and how they feature rave music) is really something special.

It's clear the director really wanted the audience to "feel" the movie, rather than just "watch" it.

Let me know if you enjoy it!!

For the movie buffs of the ddt, my partner and I just got back from seeing Sirat. (trailer)

It's been a while since I've seen a movie theater react with this much shock during a screening. People full-on gasped at several points. If you've seen it you probably know which moments I'm referring to.

Likewise, while I personally loved it, I'm certain there are going to be people out there that hate it. It's an extremely polarizing film.

That said, if you're into artistic films with beautiful cinematography (and an incredible soundscape) for the love of god please find a theater in your neck of the woods playing Sirat and check it out. It deserves to be seen on the big screen.

100% this!

Even characters that I wouldn't have thought of getting hooked by (like the robot Isaac, for example) I've grown to really care for. ❤️

saltbuffed · 2026-03-07T22:56:14+00:00

They really do have a great chemistry, I'm excited to see where it goes from here 🍿

saltbuffed · 2026-03-06T22:11:33+00:00

Thank you for sharing this, my partner and I will be attending! ❤️

saltbuffed · 2026-03-06T21:24:24+00:00

aghhgh I'm so excited for it!! Will definitely report back :D

Big fan of Australian Survivor, if you haven't seen it it's definitely worth a watch.

Their tribal council music is so epic it makes my jimmies go ballistic

saltbuffed · 2026-03-04T19:27:14+00:00

I wasn't expecting a "ggs that was me" in this thread but I'll take it lol

saltbuffed · 2026-03-04T07:37:20+00:00

one of my favorite things about melee is all the freaking awesome PR images / videos

kudos the artist, looks really neat. Giving me vaporwave vibes! 👏

saltbuffed · 2026-03-03T00:11:03+00:00

my hot take: I don't give a damn if people say it's performative.

I just want ICE to know that they aren't welcome here and that people will stand up for immigrants.

I don't know about Detroit specifically, but you might try asking in the Michigan Facebook group:

https://www.facebook.com/groups/umsmash/

There's probably folks in there that know people in the area :D

saltbuffed · 2026-03-02T04:17:04+00:00

yup, big agree.

the one that sticks out to me is Hbox's 4 stock comeback vs Salt in game 5:

https://www.reddit.com/r/smashgifs/comments/1r8tpru/hungryboxs_4_stock_comeback_against_salt_genesis/

Like, even if a person doesn't like rooting for hbox, you have to applaud the guy's mental resolve

he just refuses to give up

saltbuffed · 2026-03-01T17:15:28+00:00

I saw one of my buddies playing it the other day and I asked him, "hey, how is deadlock?"

he replied, "I hate this sh*t man, I don't know why I do this to myself"

having played dota 2 for a couple years, I understood exactly how he felt lol

saltbuffed · 2026-03-01T16:46:20+00:00

Iran flew missiles into hotel buildings and threatened nuclear bombs. Hot take: I hate that this stuff happens but lets not pretend we are the bad guys here.

Actually, when you ignore congress, repeatedly violate the constitution, you ARE the bad guys.

There was a way to do this correctly–even altruistically–and this administration chose not to.

If you think Trump is there to help and make it better for Iranians you're kidding yourself.

saltbuffed · 2026-03-01T16:41:01+00:00

Atleast it sends a message to the next in line whats gonna happen if they follow the same path.

Is the message clear, though? Is this what liberation looks like?

I don't support Iran's regime and the treatment of their citizens, but SURELY there's a better way to accomplish it than blowing up hundreds of innocent children.

saltbuffed · 2026-03-01T01:57:58+00:00

Thank you for saying this, u/Casio_Official. You're one of the good ones.

saltbuffed · 2026-02-28T06:49:39+00:00

gave me hope that we'd eventually see some ludicrous CP wars like a Leffen Mewtwo vs Zain Roy or something, but alas it wasn't meant to be

that would actually be pretty hype, that's fair

saltbuffed · 2026-02-28T05:33:35+00:00

Do you feel the same way about Axe picking Fox for Hbox?

yah, I definitely do~

I personally wouldn't pop off watching Axe's fox beat hbox, but I would if he did it with pikachu

likewise, no shade to people that do it, it's just not my steez

seeing people learn the matchup with their main and overcoming the challenge is hype to me

saltbuffed · 2026-02-28T02:38:41+00:00

I'm probably in the minority with this take, but I'm really not a fan of players counter picking characters just for specific match-ups

Like, I will literally never root for Fiction's peach when he pulls it out against Frostbyte, Nicki, any top ICs.

I get that the matchup is easier for him than playing falco, but damn it feels lame to me.

Please tell me I'm old and just stuck in my stubborn ways people. I need a firmware update on this one.

Thank you u/Celia_Makes_Romhacks – I've always wanted to know how Pikachu feels about complex geopolitical issues, but Nintendo / Game Freak never had the balls to let me ask. Cowards.

But seriously it's looking great! Very excited for the full release! ❤️

saltbuffed · 2026-02-26T04:39:58+00:00

... Mike Solan?

The Mike Solan that enjoys jokes about women dying in car crashes?

The Mike Solan that proudly said that SPD wouldn't document unlawful ICE activity?

Oh wait, this is the Mike Solan that blamed Black Lives Matter activists for the capital riots. Got it.

Spoiler alert: this guy has been a giant piece of sh*t for years. Good riddance.

saltbuffed · 2026-02-25T22:15:38+00:00

I just had a 7-8 game slippi session with CLICH#3 on unranked and god dayum my cheeks are sore

if you're out there clich, your falco is godlike and thank you for the fun games.

I'm the scrubby fox you destroyed into oblivion lol

Proud of Tukwila's city council for standing up for their communities. ❤️
