I used to hang out on the Serebii forums as a preteen/young teen, back in the days when Pokemon games were released in Japan months earlier instead of the simultaneous international releases we have now (we're so spoiled).
Anyway, as a result a lot of hardcore fans would get attached to the Japanese versions of Pokemon names before the English versions would be revealed. And when the English names would be revealed, a lot of them would throw a fit. idk why but I have such fond memories of chronically online Pokemon fans being like "NOOOOO!!!! THEY CHANGED THE JAPANESE PUNS TO ENGLISH PUNS!!!"
I cannot believe there's absolutely no way to watch free shows and movies anymore, there are too many paid streaming platforms and pirating websites have viruses and ads preventing you from watching it uninterrupted((.)) id rather follow the rules and purchase media moving forward because it is too inconvenient. Seriously, free and no ads or viruses with 1080p streaming is DEAD.
The IDF has been invading refugee camps in the West Bank with the intention of destroying them to make way for settlements. The Palestinian resistance has been fighting them off every single day. The fighting has only grown more intense and so has the destruction left behind by the IDF
Kind of hilarious to me how poorly the title "Mob Psycho 100" localized to English-speaking areas. To someone whose first language is English, it scans as:
Mob (Yakuza, Mafia)
Psycho (violent person with "crazy" behaviors)
Thus: a particularly violent member of organized crime.
But in Japanese it scans as:
Mob (background characters in crowd scenes in manga or anime)
Psycho (short for psychic)
Thus: a psychic who looks/acts like someone you'd never pick out of a crowd scene in a comic.
Cancel your disney+ subscription, stop buying mcdonald's, stop buying burger king, stop buying starbucks, i am so serious
I boycott mcdonald's despite it being just about my number one favorite food, despite being a picky eater, despite having depression and therefore a hard time making meals. If i can, so can you, there is absolutely no excuse
And pirate disney+ stuff, it is so easy, especially cartoons. You will find places to watch things if you look, i Promise you, just cancel your fucking subscription
I understand that there have been talks about an Israeli invasion of Rafah and I understand how absolutely catastrophic that would be for what is potentially the most packed area in the world, but I just want to point out that it feels like everyone is anticipating with fear a potential assault on Rafah whereas attacks and airstrikes are already happening and in fact they never even stopped for over 6 months now.
Keep talking about Rafah and keep talking about Gaza. There are absolutely no "safe zones" in Gaza and there never have been.
