Support/Action/Resistance Thread (29/208)

I find I'm having to keep forcing myself to do these. I suppose that's part of why I do them, even. Even if they don't get a lot of replies, I feel like this is here to force me to remember that this fight is never ending and won't end even if You-Know-Who leaves office.

So, my family is getting a third cat. A friend of a friend is moving and needs to give away her 2 year old cat. I'm in shock. Happy shock, though. We're actually getting a purebreed Burmese. My family, Italians, who only adopt shelter cats are getting a posh Burmese. What the heck?

So, I know the season finale was actually last week, but since it sounds like Mark Watches Supernatural isn't likely to resume (at least not soon), anyone here up for rantingtalking about season twelve in general, and what we're expecting from season thirteen?

Spoilers for everything in the thread.

Through the darkness of future's past, the magician longs to see. One chants out between two worlds... "Fire... walk with me." We lived among the people. I think you say, convenience store. We lived above it. I mean it like it is... like it sounds. I too have been touched by the devilish one. Tattoo on the left shoulder... Oh, but when I saw the face of God, I was changed. I took the entire arm off. My name is Mike. His name is Bob.


So... who else watched TWIN PEAKS!

Balthier7285 plays The Legend of Zelda with a twist, I used a randomizer to change just about everything in the game. I don't know what to expect. Part one linked below, more to come. I know the audio is not very good, but I am doing the best with the equipment I can afford.

Just a warning, I am not the best Zelda player

Any spoilers for the first Legend of Zelda are allowed. (not that it will help as everything is all switched around)

Little Witch Academia TV Series Added to Netflix on June 30th


Like animation and Harry Potter (particularly the more light-hearted first half)? Then you should probably check out Little Witch Academia. This series first started as a short of the animation studio called Trigger, and throug Kickstarter that short got a sequel (both of these can be found on Netflix and Mark has watched the original short as a Patreon commission). Now this year, Little Witch Academia got a 2 cour (25 episode) anime series.

"The show's story revolves around Akko, who as a child watched the witch Shiny Chariot perform a show, and from then on dreamed of becoming a witch. She enters the Luna Nova Academy, a school for witches that Shiny Chariot attended. In this new town she meets new friends and starts a new school life. At the school she has lessons on riding brooms and the wonder of magic, but Akko and her friends Lotte and Sucy keep getting wrapped up in tumultuous events."

On June 30th the series will finally be officially released elsewhere on Netflix. However, it's only the first 13 episodes that will be available at the time. The following episodes will probably be out a little while later.

Overwatch Anniversary & Free Weekend

Golden Overwatch Anniversary Logo

Overwatch has begun celebrating a very successful debut year with an anniversary event. Cool new skins have been released, this time more varied as they aren't strictly on a theme like previous events. There's also been 3 new maps released for 1v1, 3v3 and Custom Games modes, alongside new variations of 1v1 and 3v3 modes. And dance emotes. Zen <3 !

Overwatch is also having another free weekend in a few days, running from 11:00am PT on May 26th to 11:59pm on May 29th! On PC all you need to do is download and sign up for a free Blizzard App (formally Battle.net) account, whereas XB1 and PS4 users will need a Xbox Live Gold or Playstation Plus account respectively (otherwise, the weekend is free as advertised). If the same account is used should you decide to later purchase the full game you'll also get to keep any progress you made during the weekend. All content is available during this time (modes, heroes, event loot).

I hated it so much and I ranted about it on Twitter last night but somehow a good night's sleep has not dulled my hatred at all, so let me continue to talk about just how fantastically bad the DIRTY DANCING remake was.

Anyone else watch this movie last night? I think I'd have rather read Robbie's copy of The Fountainhead with his notes in the margin.
