My brother got me an oled (bless him he is too sweet) so I decided to sell my first gen switch since I feel like the new one will be coming out this summer
And the gamestop employees are first of all the best employees ever. There's a manager and a second in command who are always there and are so chill and play dnd together and always run events. We came in and there was a pokemon trading event going on and they were giving away prizes. I got a sticker.
We roll in, my friend and I, and are talking to the manager about the sale. She's laughing like oh I'll give you full price if you give us some of that sauce (we had just gone to get me gluten free hoisen sauce)
So we chatted for a while and the second in commend floated up to us and goes "You want to hear a story?" Immediately we were both like absolutely.
So he proceeded to explain how a customer was pissed that they had only gotten $20 cash for an Xbox 360. The day he sold it the dude was like cool whatever gas money. But the next day he realized that he could have gotten a lot more either in trade in value or selling it himself. And so dude called the employee and said if he didn't give him a refund he would put a curse on the Xbox.
So the employee goes "jokes on you my mom is a witch" and then hangs up and calls his mom. And the mom tells him to write in permanent marker on his arm. He says no he's at work and can't do that. So she says okay then instead get some toilet paper. Draw a circle with an x. Put it on the Xbox. And flush it down the toilet.
He does so and he said he pet 4 dogs that afternoon. One was named pasta. So good luck acquired.
He left us with one regret. That he didn't get the details of the curse from the man. He would have asked. "What diety do you intend on cursing me with so i can properly protect myself?" And I want that as a mug.
The manager also proceeded to hand me pokemon chopsticks with no explanation at first mid story and afterwards was like oh yeah a Ramen bowl just broke and you look like someone who eats a lot of Ramen. I mean. You probably can't because you're gluten free. But you have options right? Right. Take the sticks.
Love them dearly.

Party (2-11-24)
@its-target-official @fr-winn-dixie
Winn-Dixie frowned slightly as he surveyed the party, heading towards the couch, cup of punch in hand.
"Why did I let Nokia talk me into this...?" He muttered to himself, sitting on the far end. When the party ended, he would be giving her a piece of his mind.
"...And then I got my car towed!" Target finished, grinning at the laughter its story received. As the small group dispersed, it headed to the punchbowl, where Publix was filling up a cup.
"I've gotta say Pubs," Target grinned. "You always throw an awesome party." Publix smiled at the compliment.
"Thanks! Anything to get everybody all together!" Her voice dropped to a whisper. "...Speaking of everybody, there's a new guy here..." Its brows rose, and Publix gestured to follow her.
The pair headed to the kitchen, out of earshot of the other party-goers.
"The new guy's name is Winn-Dixie, and he just moved here." She spoke quietly. Target blinked, leaning against the doorway.
"You think I should shoot my shot?" Publix nodded.
"Of course! You should get to know him, before Jersey does..." It stared at her, dumbfounded.
"Jersey Mike's is here?!" Publix shushed it.
"Yes!" She discretely gestured to the couch, where Jersey Mike's and Winn-Dixie were quietly chatting. "I'll cause a distraction so you can get in there and do your thing." Target glanced at her.
"You will?" Publix nodded.
"Yeah! You're my friend." She opened one of the cabinets, pulling out two bottles of wine, and giving it a wink. "You've got this, Target! Channel that inner heartthrob!" Publix returned back to the party.
Target nodded, inhaling and exhaling before leaving the kitchen and heading to the couch. Jersey Mike's was at the punchbowl, pouring themselves a glass of wine.
Winn-Dixie was sitting on the couch, looking bored.
"...Is this seat taken...?" Winn-Dixie looked up as Target spoke, craning his neck to look it in the face. He shook his head.
"No, no, not at all." He blinked at Target, staring at it with sharp red eyes as Target sat down. "Jersey Mike's was here, but they went to get some wine and chat..." Winn-Dixie extended a hand.
"I'm Winn-Dixie." Target shook his hand.
"Target." Now that it was closer to Winn-Dixie, it could see why Publix had pointed him out.
He was totally its type.
"So..." Target racked its brain for something to make small talk about. "How are you enjoying the party so far?" A small smile graced Winn-Dixie's features, and Target was smitten.
"It's a wonderful party." He replied. "And though I've just moved here, everyone here's been very kind..." Target nodded.
"It's nice to see a new face." It spoke, giving him a wink. "Especially one as nice as yours." Winn-Dixie blushed faintly.
"Target." He murmured. "After this party's over, I'll be heading home to finish unpacking. Would you...?" Target nodded, giving him a smile.
"Like to help?" It spoke. "Of course. Matter of fact, we could go now." Winn-Dixie blinked at him.
"Now? I don't want you to miss out on the party..." Target shrugged.
"I don't mind." It replied, glancing up and seeing Publix. She gave Target a thumbs-up. "Besides, we can have our own party unpacking, just the two of us.." Winn-Dixie hummed thoughtfully.
"I do have wine..." He mused, and nodded. "Alright, let's go. Just let me say goodbye to Jersey Mike's first." Target watched as Winn-Dixie hopped off the couch, making a beeline to where Jersey Mike's stood, chatting with Aldi and GameStop. They exchanged a few words, before the three hugged Winn-Dixie, and he moved back to where Target was.
"Ready to go?" It asked, smiling and he nodded.
"Yes." Winn-Dixie glanced up at Target and blushed faintly.

Dumb Money (2023)
🎬Dumb Money is the ultimate David vs. Goliath tale, based on the insane true story of everyday people who flipped the script on Wall Street and got rich by turning GameStop into the world's hottest company.
📝I remember this crazy story from 2021 when we were all some sort of lock down. I saw the trailer and decided to check it out.
It's a fun story and it is enjoyable but it felt a bit rushed, there were many characters and I felt that they didn't spend enough time on them. It is entertaining and kept me engaged and amused but if you want a lengthy in-depth story, you may be disappointed. I was rooting for the working class investors and it has a good every day guy giving the hedgefunds a run for their money which was fun and great to watch.

Dumb Money
Director: Craig Gillespie
Starring: Paul Dano, Pete Davidson, Vincent D'Onofrio, America Ferrera, Nick Offerman, Anthony Ramos, Sebastian Stan, Shailene Woodley, and Seth Rogen (+ bonus Dane DeHaan with a rattail)
Release Date: September 29, 2023
My Rating: 5/10
My Review (NO SPOILERS):
I mean...it got the job done? The preview led me to believe this would be a funnier and more dramatic movie than it actually was. Felt like it just did the minimum...everything the movie would *almost* get there, and I'd think they're going to break the barrier and go a bit deeper, it would cut away. Still, it told a story about the STOCK MARKET (ew) in a way that wasn't boring. It was no Wolf of Wall Street, but it kept my interest so I'll give it that.
It explained the whole Game Stop situation in a way that mostly made sense to someone who knows very little about the stock market and the situation going on. It explained why it was bad for the rich guys and good for the rich guys. I didn't leave the movie completely understanding the stock market, or even the Game Stop incident entirely, but I could at least explain to someone else in very basic terms what it was about. I think.
It was a fun enough movie. I don't know if I'd recommend that you go out and see it in theaters or even rent it, but it'd be an interesting enough movie to watch if it's ever streaming for free somewhere.

For a group that constantly shouts how oppressed they are and how they hate the cops they sure are quick to call them for confusing hurt gender feelz for actual emergencies

Just wanted to share my old drawings over 13 years ago. I drew it for a work convention in Vegas for my husband.
