  • Since AEW's All In on Saturday night I've been basking in the afterglow of one of the most satisfying wrestling experiences I've had in years. Hangman Adam Page's redemption has been so great to experience and having him once again be the Men's World Champion feels right now that AEW has fully restored the feeling.

    His entrance was just a hair shy of the highs of the phenomenal one before he defeated Kenny Omega to become champion the first time.

  • Comic Book Club published a podcast episode of Alex's recent discussion of the history of Archie Comics. It's not exhaustive, but definitely worth listening to.

  • I've played Pokémon Go nearly daily for 9 years. It was so exciting to have an augmented reality game from the Ingress developers that plugged into my childhood love of the Pokémon franchise.

    I think the game had some significant stumbles, such as never making raids fun, and rolling back the accessibility of remote raids, but I enjoyed much of the time I played during those years.

    I'm finally ready to step away from the game as a daily habit.

    @MamaLake the colours were really vibrant in person and the light brought out some subtle differences in the shades.

  • We stopped in at the Public Gardens on Sunday and the roses were particularly nice.

  • I went to the East Coast Kite Festival Sunday with my family.

    Spider-Man was there struggling to get his kite to fly.

    Celestine's $1.50 Miraculous kite held up well.

  • This sphinx moth caught my eye when walking along Spring Garden yesterday.

  • The last day of Halifax Mural Festival was Sunday, and Celestine and I started our day by stopping at one of the sites, where one artist was finishing a piece.

  • I played through the fourth map of Waypoints today. The hikes through a ski resort had fun twists that complicated traversal on the map. I was just barely able to make it through each segment of the map.

  • We visited the library for Celestine to take part in Super Science Saturday and get 12 more books to read for her Summer Reading Club. I left with a stack of comfort comics. I read the Delilah Dirk and On A Sunbeam books as webcomics, and the anime adaptation of the Your Lie in April manga is one of my favorites. Celestine added Pita-Ten to my stack so that will be the one comic unknown to me.
