fun fact about me: i love fun shoes. i ADORE them. my favorite pair right now are these huge spiked boots with flames on the side. they have a three inch platform and make me bonkers tall when i wear them. but the bestttttt thing ever is taking off my huge shoes after wearing them all day and suddenly feeling like I SHRUNK. that perspective change is EVERYTHING.

I haven't seen much people talking about this, but the DGS perfumes are back in stock (only at the Capcom Pop-Up Stores though based on the pictures and announcements, I'm not 100% sure though)
If you're in the Fukuouka, Nagoya, or Sendai area, you can probably go check it out!

How much of a corporate kiss up can Elias be. New reports say he's asking to stay in touch with the person he emailed to prove that they shouldn't even think of hiring some other person in the coming weeks. Next he'll offer to suck dicks and take it up the ass

for a long while when I'd visit my relatives on the chesapeake for a brief respite from the hells of home life, there was an odd beat-up little cardboard box sitting amid the plastic-cased ds games in the gamestop I'd always visit (rarely to actually get anything)
finally, one time before the journey back to hell, i actually had a scattering of bills in my pocket. after looking around at the shelves of shovelware (i didnt have enough for any of the proper titles like mario or pokemon), i finally decided to bring the story to a close and give the ragged little box a home
it was Sola-to-Robo, one of the rarest ds games ever published, possibly the most technically advanced engine ever devised on the system, and among the most unique and emotional experiences I'd ever encountered in a video game (which is saying something considering I'd already all but lost emotion by that point)
i barely remember it anymore, but for the time it became my favorite standalone game of all time (although it technically is part of a series, succeeding the PS1's equally obscure Tail Concerto)
I still dream of returning to it and seeing just how well it holds up from a more experienced point of view
the one thing i do remember is that it had and still has by far the most beautiful and powerful opening song of any game ive ever encountered, which is saying something considering the hundreds out there! it's up there with Atelier Meruru's Cadena
also the fact that when you beat the game, after the credits it goes "chapter 2" and there's an entire sequel within the game. altogether both parts are probably not longer than any other rpg, but on the original ds where full 3d action rpgs were resource intensive and typically limited in scope, it was mindblowing
also it apparently had like undefeatable copy-protection and to this day still requires a modified rom to emulate or even run on original hardware without a card?
anyways.... remarkable game. i was shocked to find that it's one of the most sought after titles on the system. in rarities ive personally enountered it's second probably only to Retro Game Challenge, which I encountered at regular price once in the late 2010s but didnt have the money for at the time... that's my "one that got away"

you've used a rollator as far as I remember, would you say they're at all heavy ? I struggle visualising numbers so is there any item that is similar in weight to one ?
I think mine (drive nitro) weighed like 17 pounds? So, about half what a standard wheelchair weighs, maybe less. Back when I was strong enough to walk, I was able to get it over the top of a freeway guardrail to pick berries. If you go to a medical supply shop, they should have more than one model on the showroom floor that you can try out, and I'm sure if you ask, practice collapsing and lifting them. Plus, then you can see the pros and cons of each model of walker and find one that fits you and your lifestyle the most.
