There are definitely different choices being made when creating the show. I saw s1 before playing the games, so I didn’t have any issues with Bella as I had no frame of reference for the character. Having played the games now, I can point out some distinctions between each version of the character. Since I view the game as canon and the show basically adding context or detail, I don’t mind those differences. Bella is great. The games are great. The show is great. The internet is gonna internet.

I don’t know why I even watched that direct, lol. The attach rate for MKW to the Switch 2 is going to be near Wii Sports levels. I have minor concerns about the frame rate though…looked a little hitchy at times with a lot on the screen. Hopefully something an early patch can address, given that they are touting 120fps mode for this.

I feel like I made some tangible progress tonight - got some codes/passwords, set up some moves for future days - now I just want to play another day to see if I can execute on my plans!

This Is How Grooming Works: My 2006 LiveJournal Entries About Jesse Lacey Thank you to everyone here who’s supported me—your belief gave me the strength to keep going. I’m sharing something I never expected to share, let alone see ever again: some of the LiveJournal entries I wrote in real time while I was being groomed by Jesse Lacey in 2006. The response to my first article made it clear that the truth and visibility matter, and simultaneously, how deeply misunderstood grooming is, even today. I won’t be checking responses much today, but I did want to share this here with the folks who have supported me from day 1. Thank you for continuing to witness and validate me in my process. This is all I have left to contribute to this conversation, at least for now.

At this point we just need to declare 2005–2007 a federally recognized disaster zone for men with access to tour buses.

I feel guilty not commenting directly these last few weeks and don’t have anything new to add, but: I just want to echo what @wheneyeawoke said. Please don’t feel obligated or feel pressured to share anything unless you feel comfortable with it. I’m sure you’ve thought this and are in total control of what you want to share, and with that I just want to say sorry and thank you at the same time @aiyana91 I’m sorry these horrible things happened to you. I had a visceral reaction seeing the photos you shared as it reminded me of a non-related but similar situation in my life and HOW YOUNG you truly were. These power dynamics and the gross & disturbing things artists, teachers, managers, etc. can do to young teens has a ridiculous lasting impact. This dynamic impacted somebody very close in my life, and I was the first person they confided with. And I’ve seen first hand what it does to a person a decade later. And that’s why I want to say thank you for doing this. You’re using your pain, grief, and story at a significant time with all attention to really fucking do something brave, important, and necessary. You’re giving hope to other victims to also feel vindicated, and I’m just another person here who will support you the whole way.

I don’t have any tattoos, but have always thought about getting some band tattoos. However, this conversation is reminding me of why that would be a bad idea and how I should go with my other idea which is just getting an arm sleeve of hot dogs doing random cool shit like skating or at the beach or, like, a hot dog eating a fuckin hot dog

Kind of piggy-backing on this, as I have been wrestling with the appropriate way to discuss it - but as much as I think a lot of the people here would be curious to see these messages to help complete the picture of all the transgressions that occurred, I hope you only share what you feel comfortable. You don’t owe anyone here anything, and if in revisiting these memories you feel it best to keep certain things private, I hope you do what is best for yourself.

Finally got around to listening to this today, and it is a very easy listen. The back half of the album really works for me - Justin really just knows how to sing a duet. Get him on any track with a female vocalist and it is just pure gold. It feels like a cheat code - no wonder If Only I Could Wait just keeps circling in my head, but I really loved From as well.

I felt like Bella’s slight change in performance was enough to convince me that Ellie is a bit older. Just the way they carry themself was enough for me.

Bella Ramsey is going to play teenagers their whole career I am afraid - I kind of wondered if they’d tried to age them up this season, but doesn’t look like it! I think they must have settled on adding a line of dialogue to mention specifically that Ellie is 19 to really drive the point home.

Oh, if you want to avoid spoilers, don’t watch the behind the scenes at the end.

The dance was damn near a shot for shot remake - beautiful! I was curious to see how they’d introduce Abby, and as much as I love the game, I understand some concessions were likely to be made…just cannot wait for next week already!

I made it to the antechamber last night too, but was forced to end my day with 40 steps in the bank! I had such a good run going…not sure if I will be able to duplicate it.
