My Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green Hall Of Fame Team

This is a quick one today. I recently bought Pokemon Fire Red on the Switch 2 as I had a credit on my Nintendo account. It has been a while since I played Fire Red/Leaf Green and while I was playing this playthrough, I was reminded of my time playing Pokemon Blue when I was a child. I thought I would share my Hall of Fame team that I used for this recent playthrough, and let us hope that we will see more main-line Pokemon games show up on Nintendo Switch Online.

Let's Talk About BMO Field's World Cup Upgrades

Last week, I went to the international friendly between Canada and Iceland at the new-look BMO Field (which will also be known as the "Toronto Stadium" for the purposes of the upcoming World Cup). While I can talk about the match and the atmosphere, I want to talk about the upgrades to the stadium. While I know there has been some chatter that BMO Field will be the worst-looking stadium in the World Cup, after being in the stadium, I can say that this sentiment is true. However, I do not think this stadium looks completely terrible.

The Death Stranding Games Were A Premium Experience

I have long delayed trying to play this game, but I saw Death Stranding on sale for $20 on Steam, so I decided to pick it up and play one of the most talked-about video games in recent memory. Death Stranding is an action-adventure game released in 2019, and it is the first game from director Hideo Kojima (most famous for the Metal Gear franchise) since leaving Konami. I admit to having some preconceived notions prior to playing this game where I thought it was going to be rather boring and be a walking simulator delivering cargo to different people. When I played this game, all my preconceived notions came true, but I ultimately still enjoyed the experience.

March 2026 Update

Hello!

I hope everyone who is reading this is having a wonderful 2026. I felt like I did not have the best start to 2026, as there have been a number of weird things going on in my life. I have been dealing with my own set of struggles lately.

This Is Finally The Right Time To Talk About Tyler Perry

When I was in Atlanta back in 2019.

I have had long-held opinions about Tyler Perry and his movies for years, but I have not found the right time to express those opinions on this blog…until now. I just watched FD Signifier’s 4-hour video on Tyler Perry where he talks about his beginnings in theatre, to the issues with Perry’s movies, to his vast business empire. This is an incredible video and I highly recommend people to watch it and understand how damaging Tyler Perry is to the black community and other minority communities as well. I am not going to rehash anything in the video, but I want to talk about my personal anecdotes on watching some of Tyler Perry’s movies (particularly the Madea movies) and how I have come to have the opinions that I have about him.
