@gordito1031 @cheapuniverse__ Uh…. I think you may have missed his point. Now we have to wait another week to see Fisk’s true reaction and inevitable retaliation for Vanessa’s death instead of getting it THIS episode if she had actually kicked the bucket like we all thought she did LAST episode.

Que decepción fue ver a Vanessa viva en este capítulo. Esperaba ver a Fisk quemando Roma #daredevil

@shinobi602 Kinda insane when I was just thinking Marvel made a comeback. So far, Daredevil, Wonder Man, Fantastic Four, and Thunderbolts have all been a return to MCU form

My biggest VHS regret is getting rid of my old original Star Wars movie tapes. Because now those versions are very hard to find AND George Lucas no longer allows those original versions to be seen…a choice Disney also adheres to. So If you watch the OG Star Wars today….its the altered 1990’s remasters/special editions that cut original scenes or added new effects entirely. :(

Gonna age myself a little here. Some of my old dvds. 2004-2007. I was a huge ghost hunters and ghost adventures fan in high school. Check out those old Sci-Fi and Hollywood Video logos! #Movies #Film

@Iridian_Willow I have my same copy of A Nightmare Before Christmas on VHS that I’ve had since my parents got it for me in 1995. It’s all black case and I still got the old Touchstone Home Video sticker inside although it no longer sticks.

Finally, some of my old CDs. As a teen I got hooked on Pink Floyd & they’ve been my favorite band since I was 14. I remember using a site in the early 2000’s torrent The Wall album & get it on disc. The rest was either gifts or bought at my local record store, Zia Records. #Music

@Iridian_Willow Kmart was awesome, too. But the adult hobbyist in me wants the shack and the kid in me sorely misses Toys R Us. 😂

@Iridian_Willow Yeah, I remember when I worked for Directv I’d have to explain blackouts to people cause they’d want both SEC and PAC 12 Network and call very mad that they couldn’t get some of their games here on the West Coast.

@TheCactusCosmic He only gets the one for Cub games and he cancels at the end of the season. It's not that bad. Unfortunately there are some games that they don't carry and they're on random networks. He doesn't get to watch those.

@icyveins The Horde, The pay offs and story beats need to be TIGHT, expansion of previous lore…give us different perspectives but do not bluntly retcon, keep the self inserts to a min, enough with the Windrunners. Also the Scourge has to be badass! Vyrkul also have to be badass!

@wtxguy4real @TheLaurenChen Also just cultural/business mixing back in the day. Kind of like Blacks, Jews, Italians etc in NY. The shirt was made with Chinese thread, using European buttons, and sewn all together by a Jewish man who enjoyed the occasional dumpling. It’s the best kind of blending imo.

@TheLaurenChen It’s partly because in the past Chinese immigrants opened so many Chinese restaurants in black neighborhoods.

Today was the Cherry Blossom Festival here in Nashville, which is an annual event that celebrates Japanese culture 🇯🇵🌸 After spending 3 months in Tokyo last year, I was curious to see what a Japanese-inspired event would look like in America. The first thing that I noticed, however, was that other attendees were disproportionately overweight white women. And among the people dressed up for the event, they were almost exclusively obese white women with colorful hair. This struck me as strange, because this is not what the average person in Nashville looks like. Despite being in the south, Nashville is a relatively lean city. I definitely think that the Cherry Blossom Festival itself was attracting a specific type of crowd. And I find that so curious, because these overweight, unkempt women were clearly fans of Japanese culture and esthetics, but they simultaneously couldn't have been further from embodying Japanese beauty. Japanese women tend to be lean, feminine, well-groomed, reserved, and modest. The women at the Festival were basically the complete opposite of that. It seemed like they thought they could just put on a costume and emulate Japanese culture, but what they failed to realize is that Japanese culture is considered so beautiful and desirable because it's disciplined. It's precise. It's intentional. From the looks of it, these are not values that any of these women hold dear. The image of a tattooed, 300 pound woman, with unbrushed hair, spilling out of an anime cosplay outfit is... jarring, to say the least, because it goes against so much of what makes Japanese culture Japanese. It seemed like they believed Japanese culture was beautiful, but didn't understand that that beauty took work and a certain character to achieve. Work they weren't willing to do, and a character they weren't interested in aspiring to. And the fact that this type of woman is so interested in Japan is also strange to me, considering that Japan possesses a lot of the same qualities that these women likely complain about when it comes to America. Japan is an ethnonationalist country with strict immigration. They are tough on crime. They are socially conservative. They value social cohesion and personal responsibility. These qualities are all strengths when it comes to Japan, but these women, once more, all but certainly oppose such practices in America, failing to understand that Japanese success isn't an accident. It's specifically thanks to these policies. In any case, I don't share these thoughts to body shame anyone, but rather to note how, despite their apparent interest in Japanese culture, western liberals are essentially its polar opposite. Esthetically, politically, and socially.

@Catscollecttcg I’ve been using EBay since 2006 and haven’t ever had issues with sellers but then again I auto-select my sellers to be US/NA only when buying any TCGs even foreign language ones.

Tucson is plagued by inept elected officials although I vote in every election and special election somehow the same people stay in office. But I love my city and I will defend it, always. What I said still remains true. I’ve volunteered for my city numerous times even got an award from then mayor Bob Walkup and the city as a teen for helping the homeless.

It’s not Phoenix, It’s Tempe. We Sun Devils and Wildcats will never agree although I do support the Wildcats during March Madness. I will challenge you to observe one thing. There is so much trash along I-10 going through Tucson that you just don’t see in the valley. When you see it, especially lots of plastic, you’ll probably want to start a project to clean it up.

Fun fact: Arizona does indeed have a mountain called “A Mountain,” it is real, and it is in Tucson. Sometimes the simplest names really do stick. This is hilarious. IYKYK… 😂

@Iridian_Willow Thank you, I figured 3 years was enough time. This May will also be 4 years that we’ve been together. :) anytime with her will be a blessing but I’m hoping for a solid 50-70 years or forever.
