"I didn't get to finish reading that book, that jerk Mr. Hooper tried to swallow my soul, the witch's ass dented my can's lid, and she slapped me when I asked what her what her OF name was. Then she hit me with a bolt of lightning when I suggested she let dogs out right here and get one started. MY TRASH CAUGHT ON FIRE! This is war, WAR I tell you."

Just put together my first non-transformers Blokee...

They seriously need to be given the keys to every liscense kingdom. I had a few transformers, but Oscar is just so much fun. For some reason they chose to give him some cake though... I mean, whatever floats their boat. Really makes me want to swing into an import store and just grab everything they've done.

Wait a ding dang minute here, did they forget to add the free item for Tuesday or did they get rid of them entirely?

Just logged to do the Tuesday challenges and there's no free item...

Is there a scientific term for how the algorithm reacts when you watch a single video outside of your usual fare?

It's like, you watch a single video, and then your entire feed is FILLED with those videos.

Doesn't matter how many years you've been watching other stuff. I'm starting to get why content creators keep talking about how easy it is to screw up their metrics, cause seriously.

YEARS of watching only specific stuff on my account, and I click through for a single video to find out about something, and now my ENTIRE feed is videos about that thing.

Literally. I scrolled through 30 videos before I gave up lol. Not a one was something besides what youtube has decided is "my new thing".

Yesterday, action figures, retro fps games, snarky movie reviews, and synth music.

Today? Nothing but ai scam product reviews. All because I wanted a video to link to my mom so she stops getting tempted by them.

A single video demolished years of viewing history.

Is there really nothing like a Fit on the new market today? Maybe I'm bad at Google, but it really seems that way.

Currently driving a mazda3 hatchback, and hating every moment of it anymore. Decent enough of a car, but on a design level and footprint level, it just suuuuucks in the city. I'm close enough to paying it off that I've been looking online some for ideas about my next car.

I have previously had a 2009 and a 2013 fit, and my parents recently traded in their 2015 fit (without running it by me) for one of those uselessly huge "normal" suvs.

Maybe I'm just dense or can't use google, but I can't find anything new on the market that is similar to the fit. Everything that comes up in the searches are either larger traditional suvs or hatchback cars like my mazda3, all of which have way bigger footprints than I want, which is the near perfect subcompact footprint like the fit.

Is there seriously nothing? Never bought a used car in my life and not really jonesing to start anytime soon, but if there isn't anything like I want on the market... does that leave me any choice?

And no, not hating on nikki despite my jokes leading up to the show. Seems to be a perfectly acceptable addition to the lore, even if there is some wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff going on about nobody mentioning her in the main series lol.

It's just, it all feels, off. Like the characters are in some kind of uncanny valley, where they tried to make them sound and act like the live action show, but then forced it too much instead of just leaving them to grow organically.

I can almost see this being a show made IN the stranger things universe, like a meta show like how lightyear is related to toy story.

Nvm that hardly any of the jokes landed for me.

So is it just me, or is the first ep rough, and does it get better? Cause this wouldn't be the first time a show had first episode blues, and it won't be the last. But still, there's a lot of stuff to watch and I really don't want to sit here and plow through a show just to regret it.
