Got a reply that was like "you must be desperate for attention if you're posting this," and it's like, no. My problem is I can't shut up. That's a slightly different thing

The “Person who wants a political party to lose describes what that political party must do to win” genre of article is just incredibly insulting to everyone’s intelligence yet it will persist until the end of time

"the girlfriend of one of the founders of antifa"

VIZ Media quietly added an AI-translated manga to their app and hoped no one would notice. We did. Manga deserves better than cheap, soulless automation. This is a betrayal of translators, fans, and the art form. We don't want your AI translations!

Good call.

Because I think random passers-by might believe I am simply referencing the video game coming out tomorrow, let me remind you once again that, oh no, I am not. I am referencing a wholly different weird-ass death threat. bsky.app/profile/marz...

Trump handed Hochul re-election on a silver platter and she slapped it away, never underestimate the craven incompetence of NY Dems

Last real significant grabs arriving in this box: the Pink VHS and soundtrack CD! Combining those with the other stuff I already had (original manga, CD single, anime comic, movie pamphlet and guide book)… I have a pretty comprehensive Pink collection!

Believe it or not, but I was personally missing a couple Shenlong Times (even though obviously between us all at the site we had them). I rectified that! Now I have two of most of them! 😂 …… and an extra copy of Daizenshuu 7 to specifically keep on hand in my office at arm’s length at all times.

A brief pause for the not-necessarily-so-exciting documentation materials: I like keeping track of the random compilation giveaways at events like Jump Festa. This JF2025 book has samples from a few different DB manga. (I have an unpublished wiki page listing all these books…! 😂😭)

Grabbed the 1988 No. 23 issue of Weekly Shonen Jump, notable for DB chapter 173’s title page featuring Toriyama’s drawing of a contest winning Goku outfit! Subsequent printings don’t include all the explanatory text. Also: have you noticed this design just hanging out in the Daizenshuu 1 interview?!

That was supposed to be 2009-2010 V-Jump issues (not 2019). This is the Kai and Dragon Battlers and Raging Blast era. Real dire in terms of artwork and content (pre-Heroes/Xenoverse), but specifically wanted to get certain Super Saiyan 3 debuts for the archives…

Oh yes, Homer’s famous “Tes Thdpssssps.” 👍🏻

seeing this chart set in he’s doing sex selective IVF for boys and that’s why he lost his fucking mind and became a hardline fascist when vivian came out as trans, he’s a freak

they can’t be weaponizing the DOJ, i was specifically told that’s bad

is it good that the unelected billionaire shadow president is randomly declaring his opponents to be criminals

the prince of all sickos!!!

When conservatives they want the usa to be like it was in the 1950s they mean they want pizza to be considered a weird unpronounceable ethnic food

The thing to understand about Metaverse techbro griftlords is that they all got their brains blown out in 2020 when the pandemic forced everyone indoors and turned (specifically) Animal Crossing: New Horizons into a juggernaut. That game is being cited by ALL OF THEM and it is so fucking ludicrous.

He's gonna fuck up every single independent creator who depends on the mail for their business. Call your reps and tell them you didn't vote for Trump to destroy your business. reps.fyi

Another proxy box arrival! Mostly filling in some 2009-2019 V-Jumps via a ridiculously cheap lot I found, but also some other great finds, and even some surprises I wasn’t expecting (lol just giving me free Divers cards). Will dive in and share more item specifics over the next day or so.

Someone who doesn't understand why we need a forum account activation text check vs. precisely why we need a forum account activation text check.

No need to debunk this. The word ‘bunk’ is a shortened form of ‘bunkum,’ which came from Buncombe County, North Carolina (where Asheville is located). In 1820, the congressman from Buncombe County gave an intentionally boring and long-winded speech to Congress...

They also have plans to go after interracial marriage. This is we we can't abandon /anyone/. Trans rights are human rights, and if you want to stand up for human rights you can't ignore any of them.

We tried telling everyone that it isn't just about trans kids, or just about trans people. They are coming for ALL LGBTQIA people, cis or trans. Far too many pretended the right is mostly targeting gender. That was never the case.

40th Anniversary Tribute "Dragon Ball Super Gallery" No. 42: Eiichiro Oda With this, the gallery comes to a close! Check out the linked article for Oda's full comment translation, and a note about how these images will be used as new "double covers" for an upcoming manga set in Japan.

"...certain altars and stones suggested forgotten rites of terrible, revolting, and inexplicable nature, and made me wonder what manner of men could have made and frequented such a temple." H.P. Lovecraft, 'The Nameless City'

Twenty years ago today (January 6), Neko Majin Z 5 by Akira Toriyama was published in the February 2005 issue of Monthly Shōnen Jump. This one chapter saw a surprise English release in Viz's Shonen Jump magazine... but nothing since then... www.kanzenshuu.com/manga/spin-o...

Maybe my favourite channel on YouTube. They are most known for a decade plus long analysis of Dragon Ball but there is lots of other stuff like the Star Wars radio plays or old 1940s Batman serials. Anyway support the channel, GT videos aren't big money earners. www.youtube.com/@MistareFusi...

"You already own Dragon Ball multiple times, you don't need any more copies" ok but what about the large ass edition that recreates the WSJ format with historically accurate extras like bundling the posters those had

another protest flag. just thought you all would like this one a lot.

I can't believe there's people finding out about THE ODYSSEY because of the new Nolan film and complaining about spoilers. Sir please it was written almost 3000 years ago what spoilers are you talking about.
