apologies to ms. lung for parlaying this salient point abt artistic freedom into something else, but god as a moral ocd sufferer that period of time was fucking m i s e r a b l e to be online lmao

putting a message in a bottle here - anybody know a good website to sell 2nd-hand japanese manga volumes? trying to get rid of some stuff and ebay is kind of useless bc the algorithm seems to only show my listings to uk-based buyers no matter what settings i use.

if i was adapting homestuck into a movie i'd probably adopt the chatlog framing device from all about lily chou-chou, and also copy that movie's general tone and aesthetic

www.twitch.tv/straycatrock/ im playing spyro the dragon pwease come tell me im doing a good job

writing letter to ex - i'm trying to be concilliatory but also "i mistook you for a sexual predator and had a months-long anxiety attack where i erroneously thought i was going to face criminal prosecution for being associated with you" is a very hard sentiment to convey without hurting somebody

www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJFC... this video makes me genuinely emotional

i was hoping this website's userbase being largely older than 25 would prevent the Terrible Arguments About American Kids/YA Media brigade from taking hold but clearly i was wrong

deltarune feels like "the ultimate promise of tumblr". silksong feels like "the ultimate promise of newgrounds". these are both sincere accolades

i want the relationship with america that makes somebody write metal wolf chaos

the tekken games have some absolutely incredible osts but i feel like they dont get much recognition from VGM people, maybe bc the series is too "Jock"-coded?

coconut oil really is like a cheat code for fuller hair

as a kid i had no idea who rodney dangerfield was and as a european i still kind of don't, so the movie where he was a cartoon dog remains the most prominent version of him in my head

omg you guys elonm usk just shot a CAR into SPACE!!!!!WTF!!! O_O

world's first zeuhl-themed vtuber

i've been trying to form a working theory as to why or how certain works of art are able to feel this way, and i don't think i've got anything more concrete than "idk sometimes shit just hits different"

i hope people finally realize that dmc fox news level wasn't actually inciteful commentary on right-wing news.

theme of disney+ subscription numbers plummetting www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbO3...

cleeewd, become a square shape cleeeewwwd

knights of guinevere has The Sauce

a videogame with a 7/10 story is more enthralling to me than a movie with an 8/10 story, and i think some of thats just bc videogames have the worst batting average when it comes to the story being good

this movie feels like a very young child who doesnt quite grasp storytelling wrote and directed it

chat is it worth reconnecting with an ex i broke up with on bad terms if i'm not interested in rekindling a relationship and mostly just want some answers abt something

i sometimes wonder who legally owns the rights to morshu, nintendo or philips

i think hollow knight and silksong both have ~good~ soundtracks that mostly dont stand out but uhh holy shit the choral chambers theme is fucking gorgeous www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTic...

k i got to act 2 of silksong so i think i'm going to take a break. excellent game so far but also i got other shit to do

mechsploitation but if instead of armored core 6 everybody's looking towards metal wolf chaos as the primary source of inspiration

i feel so fucking bad for the victory heat rally devs

@discord.com I have just forwarded my ticket to you AGAIN. I want you to remove my personal information from your servers IMMEDIATELY. I have been waiting for nearly 60 days now for you to do so when you claim that banned accounts are anonymized in 14-30 days.

its so funny how little italian americans have to do with the country of italy

every now and again i think abt that time anime news network published a review of one of nagi kabata's autobio manga that was so casually ableist & denigrating to the author they had to pull the article entirely and apologize

reread an old issue of nintendo official magazine uk recently, and there's a LOT wrong with that magazine in retrospect but i think it was very cute how they were all huge fans of the naruto fighting games while also being barely aware that the source material existed

i've seen two people independantly describe breath of fire 2 as a game that has the emotional intensity of a weird dream you're having, so i guess i have to add that one to the docket

www.twitch.tv/videos/25670... watch 8 minutes of me playing astro boy omega factor with the worst sound mixing ever (i sound like im standing the length of a football pitch away from the mic)

tv shows should have bestiaries once you finish them

this is a more sensible way of going it than nothing but also i think they should just classify videogames by Elemental Energy rather than any kind of hard science

decided not to put this in my 2025 arts thread bc i only caught the last 30 minutes, but a discord server i'm in streamed the japanese dub of david cronenberg's the fly, taped off of tv with the adverts still intact and it made me think some things about like. purity of artistic intent

starting to wonder if seeing an artist i like get momentarily cancelled for "understandable but ultimately blown out of proportion" reasons might have caused like a mini OCD Hellride

www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FWC... this video is pulling double duty today

www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ziq... whenever somebody on the far-right gets owned i have a tradition of posting "metatron defeated" from the smt: nocturne ost. i think i'll use this for events that are like one step above that.

damn im the same age as charlie kirk? that coulda been me up there wtf am i doing with my life

synchronicity

damn people werent kidding abt lost media youtubers. i'm watching a guy talking abt how they recovered "the passion of joan of arc" and its set to droning industrial music and ghost wails.
