I was explaining Shadow the Hedgehog (the game) to my 5-year-old and she said she wanted to see Shadow run around and kill monsters and then go fishing.

She thinks that all Sonic games are like Frontiers.

I also asked her if she wanted to see some peak fiction and she straight up said “no”

I love when people say that Infinite’s character was badly written. I know “Forces bad” (and it was a pretty shit game) but how was Infinite badly written? He is a loser and intended to be seen as such. He’s not written as the genius supervillain because THAT’S NOT WHAT HE IS. He does have some badass moments that I LOVE, but he’s such a fucking loser at the end of the day. His hunger for power consumes and (likely) destroys him, he’s so up his own ass that he cannot fathom the idea of being defeated, and he’s literally hiding behind a mask that he’s constantly adjusting throughout the game. HE IS PATHETIC AND SAD AND I LOVE HIM SO MUCH.

The biggest issue I have regarding Infinite is how the events of Episode Shadow were not referenced at all in the main game, so there’s a sort of disconnect there that people have to fill in themselves. What we learn about Infinite in Episode Shadow doesn’t fully translate over to the main game, though it definitely does make him a more interesting character.

This game was essentially a bunch of slop heaped onto a plate and shoved across the table at the audience, but I don’t think that Infinite’s character suffers from it. If anything, it makes him even more hilarious.

Ah, well, back to my fanfiction and headcanons…

Well, I just finished Sonic Prime and even though it was 23 episodes, it was still too fucking long. The action scenes in the last season dragged on FOREVER

The show could have been a miniseries that was like 10 episodes long and nothing would have been lost.

My biggest complaint was that Shadow wasn’t in it as much as I would have liked.

It was okay, but I won’t rewatch it.

I remember one year I got a holiday bonus. I was 18 and working at a gas station to help pay my way through college. The regional manager gave me an envelope with $50 cash in it, which at least helped put gas in my car for a few weeks.

A decade later, I’ve moved into management in an entirely different industry and the hourly employees here don’t get shit. Once upon a time they got little stockings with small gifts in them and their own holiday party. Nope, that’s all gone now. Of course all the managers get invited to a fancy party held off site, which comes with a free dinner and hotel room for the night, but the people at the bottom of the ladder get absolutely NOTHING, not even a little candy cane taped to a dollar store Christmas card.

Absolutely fucking abhorrent.

I’m not going to that party because I barely tolerate everybody in my office and have zero interest in socializing with any of them. I wonder what the reaction would be if I gave my ticket to one of the people who report to me…

I’d probably get fired.

My social anxiety is so fucking ridiculous that I’m too nervous to even talk to bots. IT’S A FUCKING BOT. IT’S NOT ALIVE. IT CANNOT THINK FOR ITSELF.

Brain, what is wrong with you? ChatGPT can’t hurt you. AI can’t hurt you (yet). Are you really this fucking stupid?
