4 SOMETHING DAYS UNTIL THE WORLD IS TO DIG COMES OUT!!


 I'm extremely excited for April 14th. The new They Might Be Giants album is coming out that day!!! This is the first TMBG album that's come out since I became a fan (became a fan c. Summer 2024) and their first in 4 years.

 The Instant Fan Club people already have it (because of course they fucking do), and it seems that according to this mailing list newsletter they're offering the album digitally EARLY. Not some IFC BS, but to the GENERAL PUBLIC as a "Fundraiser for studio time". For a bit there it was SOLD OUT! I'm honestly not sure how digital files can sell out, but if this gets us album 25 faster then hell yeah!!

The only downside is that I have to go in and do my PSAT test the same day. I really don't want to do it, it's kind of stressful :(

Also I won't be getting my CD copy of the album until the 17th. I'm getting it from Amazon (I would've bought it from the TMBGshop, but like every online store their shipping + handling costs are absolutely terrifying) and for some reason they aren't getting it in until the 17th. I'm debating waiting until I get my CD, I don't like listening via digital/youtube.

The Wiggles Concert That Time Forgot

  Do you ever just forget that you did something one time, then see a picture or two a few years later and react like "Wait, that happened?" That's basically what happened to me. Back in the day, whenever the live production of a show I liked came to town, i'd probably go see it. Yo Gabba Gabba, Sesame Street, Thomas the tank engine, even Sid the effin' Science Kid! But there was one group I saw more times than any of these. While not nesecarily the "live production of a kids show" like the others, but I knew them mostly from TV. I'm of course talking about The Wiggles.   I first came across the Wiggles back when PBS Kids Sprout was airing their TV shows back in the day (Which I talked about in a previous blog post). While I wasn't as big of a Wiggles kid as I was for Yo Gabba Gabba, it was defnitely a top 5 favorite show for me at the time. I think it might have been #2 on my list actually. Back in the 2000's and early 2010's, The Wiggle...

The Janken Game: Am I Too Late?

Image
 So basically I recently learned of an old Japanese rock paper scissors arcade game by Data East. Romanized it's called "Janken Game: Acchi Muite Hoi!". I would love to play it but I wouldn't have a clue how to play it with a standard game controller/keyboard lmao So basically this video of the game got recommended to a bunch of people around September/October. Suprisingly I don't think I ever saw it during that time. I usually get all the randomly recommended stuff too but not this one. During that time it also went viral on Twitter. I believe it reached its peak a month or two ago since that's when most of the fan content about this game was put out. I had seen it around a bit but I didn't learn more about it until recently. It seems that for the most part, the Janken Game hype train has died down. Better late than never I guess?
