@witchfynder_finder in fact i think this is one of the best ways to enjoy pokémon

wonder how much of this decision was prompted by Gen VII being forcibly sunsetted with the close of the eShop

i'm happy for a new pokémon game but i feel like they coulda waited a year

@witchfynder_finder anyway what i mean though is that i think the setting looks cool and i’m excited for the pokémon world to expand to different places and the game will probably be mediocre but i don't really play pokémon for the gameplay these days anyway

@witchfynder_finder there was an episode about ash's mom and i started it like “oh no an episode about ash's mom” and i ended it like “oh NO an episode about ash's MOM”

@witchfynder_finder pokémon journeys is excellent if you ever feel the need to watch something completely mindless on netflix with lots of good milf representation

i can't make someone fall in love with you because that's a major ethical violation, but i can help you lie and do crimes

@noelle i think email is also more parasocial, like, you're getting a letter addressed to you stuck in your inbox!! it feels personal!!

but it's not actually?? that personalization is a lie?? so it feels like it's taking advantage of the same sorts of tendencies leveraged by social media to trick people into getting invested

which really does not appeal to me at all

it’s not like email got better in any way!! email has only gotten worse!

i really can’t imagine why people in the 2020s think email, a notoriously lacking format with a built‐in mechanism for being spammed with the inane thoughts of any passing stranger (or bot), is the best way to syndicate content now

and not, like, the significantly more modern and sophisticated technology of Having A Blog

you ever read an interesting blogpost and only after you reach the end realize it was designed to be distributed via email rather than atom|rss
