I will defend Mario + Rabbids and Immortals: Fenyx Rising to my dying breath

Unfortunate about the cancelled Immortals sequel.

An update in the last year added a "feature" where, when I search something, if my query is even vaguely close to the name of an app on my phone, Android will open that app instead of doing my search. I, for the life of me, haven't been able to figure out how to disable it. That alone made me hate Android.

Off the top of my head, not counting the plethora of gift cards:

  • A first edition Kindle Fire a month after it released. For being tech-illiterate, she ended up loving it and upgraded a few times through the years.

  • Several Roku boxes and Fire TV sticks, which are just now getting used because my parents are finally cutting the cord.

  • Lots of concert tickets for various bands, including Foo Fighters, Green Day, and Kiss.

  • 1-week all expenses paid trip to Nashville for some big New Year's party that some celebs showed up to.

  • $600 cowboy boots.

  • $300 KitchenAid mixer.

  • A full set of Paula Dean cookware, and she LOVES Paula Dean.

Fast X yes, Turtles no. TMNT tells a self-contained story with the sequel hook being in the mid-credit scene.

Yep, there is a vendor that shows up to farmers' markets here called "CornHub" with the same design.

Counterpoint: Wearing and maintaining a clean mask takes nearly zero effort and provides peace of mind for a lot of people.

In 2018, someone maintaining a ROM site was ordered to pay Nintendo $12 million.

In late 2021, someone was sentenced to 10 years of prison and to pay Nintendo $14.5 million. That person got out on good behavior last April, but 25-30% of their wages are going to be garnished until their debt to Nintendo is paid off - which will likely take the rest of their life.
