No one ever tell me anything bad about the person who runs this account.
the person who runs this account, Katie Gouldin, is an evolutionary biologist who has an EXCELLENT podcast called Creature Feature which compares and contrasts the weird behaviors of man and beast! she is super cute and funny too!
i think one of the things thats so beautiful abt yugioh to me is that truly anything can be a card. like most tcg have a general theme (pokemon mostly being animals/animal-like for example) but yugioh has NO boundaries. we got sushi boats , dragon maids , a flying fuzz ball , an imprisoned tomato , 12 foot killer magical robots from space and some dog named marron
main side effect of knowing tech when watching vrains is having the most potent datastorm fuel actually be. the yusaku Immediately installing some code revolver gives him on a sketchy floppy disk. like that's such a transparent and obvious cybersecurity risk that we ignore without a secod nthought that i have to be like. oh okay. even after all of season 1 we trust him with our life. like implicitly. without having to even think about it. okay!
(second effect is getting taken out at 'i activate my trap card, DDOS attack'. THIRD effect is being ??? at flame marveling at bohman being able to process 216 possibilities. for context, that is a comically low number if you actually do computer science. like you can use horribly inefficient algorithms at n = 216 and get away with it. that's not even byte-sized! i just have to assume that flame is based off of takeru and thus soulburner managed to create an AI that sucks at math.)
