for something completely different

Aw, Jesus, I thought I'd escaped the Sunday headaches but no, it slipped in under the wire.
Or maybe the universe is just punishing me for being a petty, petty bitch and cackling like a feral demon at every update on the Rainbow High/Shadow High pop-up thing they did over the weekend and how it was an absolute clusterfuck if you weren't one of the influencers or lucky as fuck. I promise you that I am not playing into the manufacturing feud (because Mattel frequently ain't shit either) but you know damn well how messy MGAE is on a GOOD day. This is both right on brand and surprisingly stupid for them and that, that is the essence of the company for me outside of the actual dolls produced. CACKLING.
So maybe I earned that headache.

But Larian is a total West Coast snob and I'm not surprised he didn't bother to acknowledge the majority of people who spend money on his products.
I'm just glad it's over so maybe we can finally get proper releases. I'm sick of waiting.
