Pro wrestling, specifically AEW, NXT and Mystery Wrestling. I'm a sucker for good comedy wrestling, and Chuck Taylor is my favorite male wrestler (even though he had to mostly retire this year). https://youtu.be/zlAHrHL_FCc?si=kaj76TB8WZP78nSj links to one of Chuck's best spots, the BOLA grenade!

Rabbits. Rabbits are incredible. They're not rodents even though their teeth continue growing throughout their lives, and they have no paw pads. They're basically like having tiny cuddly fuzzy deer or horses in your house without the poop issues.

Pokemon first gen, particularly Jigglypuff and her evolution family including Scream Tail. I found out today that Rachael Lillis, the original anime voice of Jigglypuff (and Misty, and Jessie) passed away this weekend and I'm a little heartbroken.

I'm also crazy about rogue-likes and rogue-lites, and I can't wait for Hades 2 to officially release ๐Ÿ˜

I hadn't heard of that one! Can you tell me more about it?

[โ€“] mcmodknower@programming.dev 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Its a pixelart rougelike that i found somewhere in my linux package list, tried out, and liked. I could tell you about some mechanics, but its probably better to see for yourself at its website http://shatteredpixel.com/shatteredpd/ or the pixeldungeon community pixeldungeon@lemmy.world .
