Metroid Dread HOLY COW.... I thought I'd be playing a Metroid game, turns out I'm playing a horror game. I'm jumpy like a pogo stick, so that's probably why, but still Thankfully the game loads pretty fast, otherwise all these deaths would be quite annoying.

Is there a way to check if an email was properly sent? Sent an email with outlook (the website, not the client) and it gave me an error, said try again later, but if I check on the sent items folder, it appears normally, as any other sent email. Been a while with no reply but I also don't want to resend just yet, specially if the first one did go through. Kinda late to do anything about it other than wait though, this is going to be at the back of my head all weekend.

It's going to be great, I can't wait! \m/ \m/

LMAO We may be about to outlaw solar panels. ??? Round 2 of AMLO and his cult trying to pass their electric reform, with one of the main points being the elimination of self-sufficiency, meaning stores, corporations and even homes that use solar, wind or other forms of energy generation would have to get rid of them and rely only on CFE. There's other stuff, mostly the same old, "neoliberal concepts like regulatory agencies, clean energy and a reliable electric grid are evil and should be removed". There's a lot of pressure on PRI as they're the ones that could tilt the balance either way and the president has already warned that he will "expose" those who vote against him. ???

After the announcement that it was getting an anime I started reading the Komi Can't Communicate manga and... BEST MANGA EVER*. It's super cute and wholesome and fluffy and comfy and.... *happy caveman noises* It's also super relatable. lol Seriously considering just buying all current volumes as an early Christmas and/or Birthday present for myself. *Terms and conditions apply, all opinions presented reflect the will of the universe, Elder Gods and other sentient beings, including the person who wrote it.

Their next album is going to be fun. \m/ \m/ From the Halloween Kills OST, be cool if their next album is like that too. \m/ \m/

At first the warning at the start seemed a bit overkill (for a metal video at least), then towards the end when it starts to give The Boys a run for its money* it made sense. *

Honestly, it's been 15 years since president Calderón began the "war on cartels", longer if you count the 2004 deployment of the army to Nuevo Laredo (that was when Fox was president), and since then it hasn't been one day without violence, sometimes more, sometimes less, it has escalated recently a fair bit, but it's basically been there for most of my life, it's the "normal" thing in a way, so yes, part of me realizes how fucked up things are, but there's also a part of me that's just like "yup, this is the way things have been always" and honestly, it's mostly thanks to the internet and meeting people from other countries that I started to see this as "this isn't normal, things aren't like this in other countries (with some exceptions)". To (try and) answer your question, it hadn't been a thing that worried me too much, it was another thing to be careful of, like looking both ways before crossing the road, if that makes sense, up until 2018, when AMLO gave the cartels carte blanche, now, it is a bigger concern, but at the same time it's not something I get too stressed about, I get angry when something happens and there's no response from the authorities, or the president mocks the victims, stuff like that really does piss me off, but I wouldn't consider it to be something emotionally draining, not yet, there's still 3 more years of this dude. Last time I remember this being something that did really leave a mark for a while was when I was a kid, there was a time when we had army trucks full of soldiers, humvees with turrets and more patrolling the streets, there were army trucks pretty much on every corner, back then it was scary, but even that became normal after some time. Though I also have to confess, I do live in a relatively safe area, there's been some attacks on restaurants and bars, and the chief of police of a nearby town was executed on his way to work, his shot up truck was found on a highway I've been on a fair number of times, but still, compared to Michoacan, Guanajuato, Sinaloa, Guerrerro and others, we're doing pretty well. TL;DR: I'm kinda numb to it now, so it's a "whatever happens happens" kind of deal. Sorry it took too long to reply, just never had to actually think about this kind of stuff for too long, and now that I read it... It doesn't look too good lol. I feel it makes it seem like I'm insane or "broken" in some way.

First thing I did after reading this was check my monitor and system settings... All at 144hz. ?

Gertz Manero, Attorney General has issued arrest warrants for 31 different scientists, researchers and academics, according to him, due to "organized crime" and money laundering. This however, is just a facade, he's going after people who criticised his recent appointment as a level III researcher, the highest rank possible, by CONACYT (science and technology commission). For the last 11 years, CONACYT had rejected his applications, citing a lack of proper scientific methods, inadequate research, and published papers that were just "a reflection of his opinion, rather than the result of research and experimentation" among others. Of course, since he's friends with our god-emperor who has declared Gertz Manero "incorruptible", and since the current head of CONACYT is also a member of the cult, he was immediately awarded the highest rank, going over people who are actually doing some kind of scientific work or research. So now he's going after some of the people who spoke against this, not only that, he wants to send them to El Altiplano, a maximum security prison, where heads of drug cartels are imprisoned. https://politica.expansion.mx/mexico/2021/06/10/conacyt-gertz-manero-sistema-nacional-investigadores https://www.elfinanciero.com.mx/nacional/2021/09/20/gertz-manero-vs-cientificos-por-que-el-fiscal-quiere-encarcelar-a-investigadores-y-academicos/ Meanwhile in Guanajuato, the owner of a bar and one more person were killed by a bomb, the owner was celebrating his birthday when two people in a motorcycle delivered what was supposed to be a gift, which ended up being an explosive of some kind. https://www.eluniversal.com.mx/estados/salamanca-victimas-de-explosion-recibieron-paquete-bomba-como-regalo-de-cumpleanos Last Thursday, while the president and generals bragged about the army and their weapons and training during the independence day military parade, Michoacan was still recovering, after Tepalcatepec and La Estanzuela were attacked by the CJNG, in La Estanzuela they killed and beheaded five men who were manning a checkpoint designed to try and keep criminals away from their town. This, apparently after the cartel detonated drones carrying explosives near the checkpoint. https://mexiconewsdaily.com/news/cjng-launches-offensive-against-michoacan-municipality/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2-mexican-guardsmen-wounded-in-michoacan-fighting/2021/09/15/90902e96-1661-11ec-a019-cb193b28aa73_story.html So yeah, business as usual in this country I guess... ??

\m/ \m/ "new episodes every week!" HELL YEAH! \m/ \m/

Holy Cow! Didn't know there was new Pentakill, thought Riot was all about KDA now.

I'm sure there's a joke in here somewhere, my favourite "Viva Mexico" song is by a Spanish band....

God Eater 2

Yeah, just look at Eddie Hall (though I think he's lost some weight recently), Zydrunas Savickas, Tarmo Mitt, bunch of dudes from the World's Strongest Men competitions aren't just chiselled mountains of muscle.

All I know is that I'm in. Looks awesome. \m/ \m/

At this rate their next album will debut with a 666 BPM single.

Album of the year easily, not a single bad song in there. HELL YEAH! \m/ \m/
