Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgiastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that’s no matter—tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther…. And one fine morning—
@LudwigAhgren
im really sorry man i didnt mean to ruin your night that one time, i know you think about it a lot still. i hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me. sincerely your friend, sa nick.
Very pog and champion USA trip! Finished 65th at Genesis, 25th at pound, 17th at Emerald City (I think) and 17th at function 2. Loved meeting all the gamers and fun side characters and I also got to see a LOT of rats on the subway which was such a privilege. Subscribe to bundun
hypocrites really be calling parasocial relationships unhealthy and then turn around and worship the lord Jesus Christ the son of god who died for our sins 💀💀💀 amen
They say a person dies 3 times: once when their heart stops beating, once when someone says their name for the last time, and many years later a third time when the final tweet is sent joking about them breaking joshmans arm
Twitter today has made me realise that I need to be more actively welcoming/friendly to the young members of the smash community.
I never really considered them a vulnerable group, and look forward to being more mindful of that.
Hope others are coming to the same realisation.
Bad news gamers I've just tested positive for covid on 2 consecutive rat tests and am now stuck in sunny Victoria isolating. Hope BAM gaming goes well and I look forward to thug finals vs the winner. Very cringe!!!!!
Won COM over goodie, sock and duck! It's my first LAN tournament after coming back from the states so super happy to get a win on the board. Duck is becoming terrifying to play against and
@Goodieee_
had an amazing run, so look out for some of Australia's God gamers at Phantom!!!
If anyone was wondering why I didn't play on stream at ECX, it's because Bundun and I skipped the tournament to go see the White House. (Pic included.) Can't wait to compete again at the function 2!!!!!
Out of pound at 25th, losing 2-1 to wally and 3-1 to swift. Sucks losing to strategies and matchups I'm inexperienced in but I managed to take a game off swift with puff on dreamland for the discourse. Better luck next time !!! Peace and love to the gamers at home. That's I (1/2)
Practicing ledgedashes instead of cleaning the bathroom in preparation for tomorrow's inspection, because how can a man clean if he himself is not clean.
Idk why i spent $70 on the weekend to go into a sensory deprivation tank for an hour when I already have a broken car radio and lost my contact lenses
I experience a mystical mind journey every day driving to work
Nick 10/10 really cool dude
SA Nick 10/10 love this guy
Nicholas 10/10 Haven't talked to this guy much but he has a really cool vibe and I'd love to interact with him more
SA Vic 10/10 lot of great memories with this guy
Microsoft J 5/10 get kind of a weird vibe from this guy
Played quite badly at Camp FF but it was an epic event!
Prob should have dedicated more time to learning c buttons in the leadup, fingers kept forgetting where they were lol, but props to the gamers who defeated me
Jimmo is a generational talent in Melee TOing and vibe creation
Just confirmed I have broken my arm, currently in hospital and it’s looking like I’m here for the weekend
Boxing dream is dead and I’m uncertain if I’m allowed to even fly for the next 6 weeks
Plz send good vibes I am beyond owned :(
The internet is an increasingly on-rails experience
Back in my day there were hundreds of websites, now you can basically count them all on one hand (youtube, twitter, neopets, neopets wiki, forbes)
Idk why I entered this tourney lol, I didn't play for 2 months and didn't have a working controller until today. Feel like I should have lost every stream set. It was nice to kick the football with everyone on Saturday though! Congrats to the winners and bad luck to the losers
Stop using the phrase 'middle of the road' to describe things that are boring, standing in the middle of the road is actually very dangerous/exhilarating.
PHANTOM was very good to watch, GREAT COMMS throughout especially from sora/calvin in grands, ALL OF THE spud sets were very insane, VERY EXCITED to compete again at BAM
On the plus side,
@Microsoft_J
has let me stay in his house alone and install Path of Exile on his PC, so I have a magical weekend ahead of me. I will also be doing an AMA on the contents of jordis downloads folder on Saturday so tune into that if you are a fan of Aus smash.
Not sure I like Melee enough to grind when people don't want me to win, and turns out i can't win if i don't practice. Gonna take a nice long break and think about M2K until the love returns.

Very happy to have been on the right side of history re: wobbling, but can somebody knowledgeable about the ICs meta please explain to me what an 'insular scrub' is? I keep seeing the term thrown around. Hopefully it's not another boring ass infinite
Me: mom can we get some Melee Tournament
(picture of nice big crowd full of friends and happy memories, the sound of gamecube controllers click-clacking can be heard faintly in the wind)
mom: we have Melee Tournament at home

In this tweet I will predict future memes, so that I can come back and farm likes when they become ubiquitous
- Wartortling
- Buzz Lightyear/Mr. Potato Head hybrid
- "shinbone'd"
- the letter ü

@MuscatAUS
Wow... it's been a wild ride, and I can't believe it's coming to an end. Just remember Muscat (and this comes from personal experience) that it is better to have been sponsored and left the org after a month than to have never been sponsored at all.
@LilTrickshot
@SockSSBM
Sometimes you can play so hot that you make your opponent miss tech skill and blame their controller, that's the sockmyson effect
Pretty cool that all the 'heroic' 'essential' 'frontline' supermarket workers won't benefit from Jobkeeper and will have to continue working in unsafe, stressful and scary conditions while by and large making less than $750 a week.

@MmCailan
Hey Cailan, good job on the seeding for the most part, however one thing that I found interesting was that you seeded my friend and practice partner 99th and seeded me 130th, when in actuality our friendlies are extremely close.
Would you rather have a million dollars, or lunch with jay-z (every day for the rest of your life, and you are never allowed to eat lunch with anyone else)
