Legends Z-A Is Just Good Enough

I’d been wanting to get back into Pokémon for some time, but just as many longtime fans have become disillusioned with the main series games, I had no interest in Scarlet and Violet. After its disastrous launch, I was looking forward to Game Freak learning some lessons. Legends Z-A had a lot of hype around … Read more

Too Busy to Meet People

I’ve stopped making an effort to meet people in recent weeks. I put blame on starting an internship and doing school at the same time, but a part of it is definitely just not wanting to deal with the disappointment of using my free time to hold a conversation just to be flaked out on … Read more
