Hilarious that I call a spade a spade and then it acts like a spade for 15 minutes while I'm taking dinner out of the oven. Anyways.
I think I'm done with mainline.

The new announced waves really don't look like anything even remotely interesting in any regard, and Inferno cost me fifty fucking dollars because of how shit my country's economy is, plus these massive price hikes. For a figure objectively worse in every regard than voyagers from only 2 years ago that were ten bucks less.
It's fucking depressing as shit, man. I've been trying to tell myself that mainline will get better for the last 2 years and it's only been getting worse. Praying the remaining ROTB stuff looks mildly interesting or SS picks back up.
