    I was a button masher when this was still a big game back in the day, so I never learned how to properly play. Now that I have this, I’m hoping to learn and with the help of a friend, revive the FGC in my area. Like, I started really getting into FGs around 2011 with MK9, but I will never play MK seriously again or touch that series. Skullgirls was next and I really only ever learned Squigly, but it helped me figure out execution to a degree. I got really serious about DBFZ, but I put it down in 2021 (I wanna knock the rust off, but I don’t think there’s a point now). GBVSR, GGST, and (to a lesser degree) SF6 are the games I’ve been playing since then so my brain is having trouble adapting to team games again and calling assists. I heavily prefer 1v1 FGs and I now have access to all of the Marvel games, but I know MvC2 is going to reign again, so I’d prefer to focus on that. I just don’t know how receptive my midlife brain is to figuring it out.

    Sorry. Was in a mood earlier and I was being an asshole. Here’s a real response that isn’t just anger.

    1.) This country shouldn’t be as car dependent as it is and should be a lot friendlier for pedestrians and cyclists (sidewalks, crosswalks, and bike lanes where they matter)

    2.) Vehicles (this applies more to trucks than anything) should be a lot damn smaller than they currently are to improve visibility. I am sick of seeing 10 ft. tall civilian trucks that take up the entire lane that you cannot see past and obscure the drivers vision.

    3.) Lifted vehicles and noncommercial vehicles with giant wheels need to be outlawed. Not only do you look like a chud, you’re endangering others by obscuring visibility (also applies to section 2).

    4.) Put your damn phones down while driving. Holy shit.

    I realize this isn’t going to end accidents and won’t be easy to achieve as long as our representatives keep letting corporations funnel money into their pockets, but something absolutely needs to change. I should be able to walk or bike to the damn store without having to look over my shoulder and be on edge because I might get taken out by a dick in a Dodge Ram who’s wolfing down a burger, texting/watching YouTube, and has a massive blindspot in front of him.

    A damaged, depressed, and unstable piece of shit who makes self-deprecating and suicidal jokes to cope with the reality of existence that are also cries for help because I’m lonely and miserable and hate that I was ever conceived.

    Pretty much the same except I actually don’t have it in me to follow through with suicide even though I’ve been extremely close. I really just want close friends I can depend on, for life to get better, and be able to take care of the ones who’ve taken care of me and stuck around. I’m so tired of being and feeling lonely and unloved. It hurts so god damned much.

    I lost two long time friends in the past week (one amicably, one blocked me because I’m too depressing for them presumably. I didn’t know they bailed until I split with the first friend). I moved to a new area where I only know my roommate, and I don’t leave the house except for work and to walk my roommate’s dogs.
