      Man, there's something to be said because I've seen that from months ago, maybe years now (times flies!). I love your style, your way of whispering things like ASMR to appear more dramatic, just so you break that atmosphere with a funny sequence afterwards ; but please, be gentle to our EARS, I'm not a metalhead, it physically hurt my ears sometimes in your videos ; I want my hearing abilities to keep perfect when (if) I grow older, please mind the sound mixing for your next videos, thanks for reading. Take care of you and your family, happy holidays 💜

John these videos are a brilliant little pick me up in those times to remind myself of why I love wrestling, anime and other cool stuff you talk about in these videos.

      You and me both. Sometimes it can be easy to forget you like certain things. I know when I'm in a bad place I feel like not wanting to engage in the things I enjoy because I feel like I won't enjoy them the right way, instead waiting for when I feel better to take them in. Which is silly. No perfect time than right now. I'm rambling, sorry.
      I hope next year, and just every day forward will be better than the last. Have a good one 😊

He still had so much more to give to wrestling and had a family to care for and to see him die so early in his life is so brutal. RIP Windham Rotunda. You were a great person and great wrestler

    For anyone who loved Slay the Princess as much as I did, you should check out Black Tabby’s other game, Scarlet Hollow. It’s easily one of my absolute favorite games of all time, and even though it’s still incomplete, it’s still absolutely worth playing. It’s a visual novel where your choices have long-term consequences, about a dying coal mining town where some disturbing things are starting to happen. You play as the estranged grandchild of the matriarch who owned the mine, whose recent death is why you’re in town. There’s a planned 7 chapters in total, each one covering a single day of the week, and the first 4 are currently out, with the fifth slated for mid-2024 (it’s just two people making it, so progress is slower than other games). It’s so good; it’s way better than Slay the Princess, which is still in my Top 5 GOTYs.

    Mutant Mayhem was incredibly endearing to me. I can't say it's my favorite Turtles movie, but the art style and acting are on point. The brothers FEEL like brothers and absolutely sell being 14 years old in 2023. Some of the jokes linger for too long and I don't feel like Raph or Mikey get enough screen time, but that does just make it stand out as its own unique thing in the franchise all the more. The wonky "hand drawn 3D" makes me think of Psychonauts, which is never a bad thing.

    I kind of know several of the people Scott Pilgrim was based on (rode on a bus from Seattle to San Diego with Young Neil lol). I haven't seen Bryan for a bit but I think the whole thing is a testament to growing older, mature, understanding your life and how you interact with others. SP was especially wild for me as it came out because the character was younger than me when I started reading it and I had a kid on the way when it ended. The original ending definitely didn't land for me at the time and I commiserated with a few other artists and podcasters about it at the 2010 Scott Pilgrim San Diego party (sponsored by the Toronto Tourism board no less!) so it is fantastic to see it blossom into such a spectacular and tight anime in 2023 (RIP Doug Sherwood, I didn't know we lost him this year until the show came out. I remember proofreading volume 4 with Doug at the Oni office when it came out).

But watching videos like this kept me sane, reminded me that i have interests that make up myself and that its not worthless, because it helps define me. Slowly my year started to get better but im still compating loneliness after losing so many people that i thought actually cared about me but actually were masks that ended up cracking once i saw through them. Life is tough, thats why i retreat and wind down with these videos, there calming when things are hard to get through, so thank you for that.

    Hey bro, you're welcome. But thank you for sticking with it, even as you're open and transparent about how difficult it is. That's more inspiring than you could know. There were a lot of times i thought this year might be my last one. Between physical and mental health. But knowing there's people out there pushing gives me the strength to get back up.
    You mean more than you think, man. Just make sure you take care of you, too.

      Spoiler alert
      For some reason, I was desperately hoping the mc would save his daughter right before her tongue got cut off but when he didn't, I was utterly shocked and realised this movie was one of those evil kinds (especially since after you finish it, you understand the meaning of the title and the context of the scene the poster is depicting). What I got out of the movie is that you should take action before anything truly awful happens to you and your family.😨

It was a very well-made & engaging show & the promotion has been doing great since the show came out, I know at least they had a run of like 13 straight sell-outs at their weekly shows.

I also struggled with mental health problems and some real life difficulties this year. And it’s hard because you can feel alone, even when you’re surrounded by those who love you. It can be hard to share what’s troubling you and get a response that actually matters. But we care. And we all hope things get better for you. I just hope this doesn’t come across as some trite response. Because you have made a difference in my life. I found enjoyment in your videos this year during a period when any enjoyment at all was oh so difficult to find. That means something to me. So thank you. Know you have made a positive impact on this world. I hope you can find some prolonged happiness. I really do. Take care. Lots of love.

Thus Abe and Nomura tend to hit very hard and when they throw headbutts they are doing those for real which make them so gross to watch
