Yeah, This Looks Right. It’s Been A Fun Year.

I’ve begun my new Christmas tradition of building the cool Lego set that my wife got me. This year it was “The Mighty Bowser” set. I finished the stand Bowser goes on and I’ll finish Bowser tomorrow. My wife is the best. We usually celebrate Christmas with just the two of us a week before actual Christmas because we have, like, three Christmas’ to go to. Her extended family, my immediate family and her immediate family. Should be a fun time.

Just so people in the US know, Hulu will be raising their subscription price next Monday, when Bleach: The Thousand-Year Blood War premieres. I signed up for the ad plan which is currently $6.99 and will be $7.99 on October 10th. I assume the no ads plan will be similar. I know this isn’t a huge price increase but I still think it’s worth mentioning. So get your free trials while you can.

I was watching the new Bleach episode this morning and realized something really funny. It may only be funny to me but I thought it was worth sharing. Spoilers if you haven't seen the latest episode yet:

Okay, so Nel drops in on Ichigo to tell him Hueco Mundo has been attacked and I'm like, "Yay Nel!" Then Pesche follows shortly after and I'm like, "Ehhh, okay." Until I realize that Pesche's voice sounds very familiar. Specifically, it sounds like Takehito Koyasu. I look it up and yup, it is him. Now why is this so funny, you might ask? Simple. Because it means that this guy,

is voiced by the same guy that voices

Dio Brando from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

Again, this may only be funny to me, but it's really funny.

Bonus fact: Takehito Koyasu also voices Bobobo-Bo Bo-Bobo from the series of the same name. Also really funny.

I GOT NEW GLASSES! FOR THE FIRST TIME IN SIX YEARS! (I think.)

I have desperately needed to update my glasses for a while now. I normally wear contacts but sometimes it’s nice to just wake up and not have to stick tiny lenes on my eyes. Anyway, it’s nice to have glasses I can actually see clearly out of. My previous glasses hadn’t been changed since I got them and my eyes have definitely changed since then. Hooray!

I don’t plan on advertising my Twitch everytime I stream but I might start doing posts at the beginning of the week to be like, “Hey here’s my schedule!” or something. So that’s what this is.

Tonight @ 7:30 pm (CT): Paper Mario

Thursday @ 7:30 pm (CT): Paper Mario

I’ll probably talk more about what my plans are for future streams soon. I plan to play a lot of older games that I’m familiar with but I’ll mix in some newer games every now and then. But for now, more Paper Mario!!!! Woo!

Who I Am

Hello! I'm Will! I know I just did an introduction post a week ago but this will be slightly different. This post will have links! :D Anyway, I'm a huge weeb with ASD and ADHD who also streams on Twitch occasionally. What do I stream, you might ask? Whatever I want! Mainly games that I really like, such as Mario, Zelda, and Pokémon to name a few. Big Nintendo person in case you couldn't tell. I also really enjoy reading manga and watching anime. Some of my favorites include Bleach, One Piece, Jujutsu Kaisen, Oddtaxi, Space Dandy, Chainsaw Man, Komi Can't Communicate, Laid-Back Camp and so much more! If you are curious about where I might talk about these things aside from here, then you're in luck! You can find links to all of my social media and my Twitch channel here at https://linktr.ee/stillwill76. I've been on a stream hiatus for a few months now but I'm gonna be coming back on the 29th of November. I'll post more about that soon. I said this before but I hope I can make some new friends here!

My 2023 in Summary

Okay, so this year was weird. Like, it wasn't particularly bad but it wasn't great either. Where do I start? I guess the biggest thing that happened was that my wife got laid off from her job and we've worried about that since May. She just got hired for a new job recently and I'm working now too, but more on that in a sec. We had to seriously consider what we were gonna do next if she didn't get a new job by the end of next month. We probably would've had to move back to our hometown. It wouldn't have been the worst thing but we've made a nice life for ourselves where we are now. Thankfully, we have a great network of supportive people who are willing to help us and I'm so grateful for that.

Anyway, I got my first real job a couple of weeks ago. I'm working as a sales associate at my local Vintage Stock, which works for me because I'm autistic so it's nice to be surrounded by stuff pertaining to my special interests (anime, video games, etc.). I haven't had luck with finding a job before because of said autism and a lack of a college degree. I once bombed an interview to work as a library page that it kinda scared me. So that's fun. It's been a big learning experience. A friend of mine from college is my manager so again, I'm really grateful for people in my life. Ordinarily getting a first job is not a huge deal. But I turned 30 this year so yeah. Speaking of which...

I turned 30 back in August. Big milestone, I guess. I don't feel that different. What has happened since I turned 30, you ask? Welp, I accidently ripped off a toenail on the day of birthday party. It's growing back so no worries, nothing serious. Hurt like hell, though. Then my wife and I went on our first vacation since our honeymoon, five years ago. To be specific, our first vacation ALONE. We've been on plenty with friends and family. Anyway, it was super fun. We went to Denver and had a great time. Two of my favorite manga (Undead Unluck and Mashle) got anime adaptations this year, along with the continuation of Bleach: TYBW. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom took over my life for most of May and June and it was great. I found out that my favorite game of all time, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, is getting a remake next year. I went into another indefinite hiatus with streaming. And I found out that I might have scalp psoriasis. Cool.

Like I said, it has been a weird year. But, I am kinda curious to see what 2024 has in store. To anyone reading this, I hope you have a happy New Year!
