brass solidarity band performing “stand by me” in the streets of whittier next to alex pretti’s memorial. the crowd started chanting “the people united will never be defeated” so they incorporated it into the song. i love minneapolis

One of the main ideas behind the Ikoku Nikki anime so far has been to use the structure of the house that the two leads share to underline how "living together" has been a technicality. They're still two separate lifestyles and there is tangible, solid separation between the two

so don't get too comfortable. #art

Funny that Saito stepped aside as Frieren's series director, yet was fully in charge of an original puppet show. Self-indulgent in that he's such a big doll guy he has dedicated accounts, yet representative of the anime's thoughtful expansion of its world's culture. That's how legends would spread!

ARMITAGE III

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.

Frustrating hearing “nobody cares” and “Americans are so disengaged”. It’s a disservice to the many, many activists and orgs who are indeed fighting to make things better. Immediate drastic change would be nice, but it’s the consistent work that actually builds longterm change. Help do that work.

Netflix has revealed a sneak peek video in several dub languages for Yōko Kamio and Wit Studio's Love Through a Prism anime, which debuts on January 15.

this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to jump out of a helicopter to kidnap a head of state and his wife so some oil ceos can make a lot of money. we’ll be watching from a resort in florida that still serves wedge salad and checking how many retweets we get. good luck soldier

I’ve been laughing at this panel for like 3 days straight

Solidarity to the people of Venezuela.

So I’m sick and haven’t had time the last year or two to just do nothing but binge an anime and it feels great again. I have also discovered that I might be partial to the subgenre of villainess in isekai lmao it’s bc it’s shojo ✨

Banana Fish doesn't deserve this.

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

John Tarachine's award-winning Credits Roll Into The Sea manga ended on Thursday, but will get a spinoff chapter in January.

Nothing is inevitable if we organize

Wrote about The Summer Hikaru Died / HikaNatsu being planned as a sensorial experience, but in a way that reinforces its themes. Inescapable sound, morphing visuals, and inventive direction give slithery form to the horror of conformity & the allure of the other blog.sakugabooru.com/2025/10/19/h...

Andrew Cuomo: taxpayers should pay for $60 million in legal bills for my sexual harassment allegations Also Andrew Cuomo: $60 million is too much money to spend on a pilot program to deliver cheaper groceries

There are currently 16 data centers in Scotland. They use enough tap water to fill 27 million bottles per year. And that number has quadrupled in just four years. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Feel this through my body lately. I’m in pain

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Too exuberant a show to stop being fun to look at, though

Finally caught some Fall anime premieres. Favorite so far is Yano-kun, which I was preemptively down on because it got tantalizingly close to a Yubisaki-like miracle adaptation yet ended up more down to earth. However: GREAT vibes and lowkey gorgeous color design by one of the best in the business

Getting a Snapchat ad for temu and opening it up for it to say 18+ is terrifying

New York City, I can see a future with you. And it’s one we can afford. Our new ad just aired during The Golden Bachelor.

bsky.app/profile/doom... folks seem to be organizing to send complaints about it, link down there

Donate to mutual funds. Take a first aid course. Offer to help others with yard work or errands. Check in on your friends, family & vulnerable community members. Contact your senator. Help out at a food bank. Do not give up. The road is long & small positive actions ripple outward.

Let's all help each other live long enough to see Project 2025 collapse.

One of the true powers of Trumpism 2.0 is that corporations have realized that placating his ego and giving him a cut means they'll get away with even more blatant white collar crimes than the leniency they already enjoyed under the neo-liberal order.

Every TV network that's instantly caved to the administration's requests has a direct financial interest in letting the president do whatever he wants so their billion dollar deals to further consolidate and monopolize all media can clear.

In 1983, 50 companies controlled 90% of the U.S. media market. That number is now down to 5.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

Damn r/renters subreddit is pathetic. No sauce. No rizz. Just folks who wanna complain and do nothing and can’t imagine organizing for their collective liberation bc they’re too busy crying that it’s just capitalism. LAME AS FUCK Join a tenants union today

Entirely in love with the new Tatsuro Yamashita banger for Pokémon Concierge COMPLETE WITH STOP MOTION TATS AHHH 😍

That time y’all decided to recast the VA for the main character of Mob Psycho 101’s dub rather than even entertain his request to just talk about allowing union work in future productions.
