Remember folks: Amazon, Walmart, Steam, Playstation, Nintendo, Xbox, Blizzard, Google Play, Apple Apps, Netflix, Hulu, and many others still offer physical gift cards you can purchase with physical money at most general stores. You can get surprisingly far online without a bank card.

Hold on... Well, I'll be damned... Thanks for the tip, TC.

A #retroanime I've had my eye on has finally gotten a fansub. It's the kind of animation we rarely get in the USA, because it's an adult drama that isn't bloody or sleazy (the MC IS a hot redhead in a well-cut suit, but the story is fairly sexless). Give #ReporterBlues a watch. C'est magnifique!

So, over/under on The Management wiping the servers, rebranding the site to RedSky or something, and then actively vetting all new accounts until they get the "literally just X but WE own it" they actually wanted?

Jessica Jones but starring Kimmy Schmidt. An anime miniseries adaptation of Shin Megami Tensei 1. A period piece adaptation of Nancy Drew, back when she had a gun. A remake of The Thin Man (1934) and a new adaptation of the comic strip Blondie, paired as a double feature.

Five Shows to Get to Know Me: • Doctor Who • Warehouse 13 • The Big O • Baccono! • Kablam!

Operation Portland II. Build a city in Wyoming or Montana and transplant as many LGBT and PoC folks from right-wing hot zones as possible and watch as two of the big right-wing strongholds shift left through sheer numbers, like Portland currently does to Oregon.

Idea that no one has done, apparently: Chiaki and Isamu obtain magatama and are transformed into demi-fiends like Naoki (with the tattoos, eyes, and everything). #shinmegamitensei #smt #megaten #smtiii #nocturne #artprompt

You know, there is a relationship pairing I rarely if ever see from the #Persona fandom that feels very obvious: #Aigis and #Elizabeth. Two feminine-presenting non-human entities. Both struggling to fully internalize concepts like "humanity" and "living". 1/2

I've got the outline of a #LandOfOz cartoon forming in my head. WW & ML run in parallel until Dot and Tip cross paths, team up, fall in love... Until the reveal. Ozma freaks out, thinking it's over, until Dot shuts her up with a kiss. "I don't care who you are, just that you're with me." 1/3

Quit my terrible job in food service, set all my bills to auto-pay, and just go full NEET for a while. Probably try to find a low-stress position if/when my hobby/food budget starts outstripping the stipend.

Oh, easy. Operation: "Artificial Portland". Long/short: Build a mid-sized city in either Wyoming or Montana, fill it with leftie transplants, and then flip the state blue by drowning out the red voters with sheer numbers. Like Portland does with Oregon.

They actually did it! Thanks, @bsky.app!

Words. To. Live. By. #WWGAD

Yeah, a condo in NYC and enough to live on for me. The rest probably goes to PBS... or decent passenger trains... or my harebrained "Artificial Portland" plan... Long/short: Build a city in either Wyoming or Montana, fill it with leftie transplants, flip the state blue. Like Portland with Oregon.

I'm all for a service that covers most of ones digital needs (finances, productivity, media, communications etc.). Shame for these dipsticks that iOS and Android bet them to the punch a LONG while ago.

Yeah, turns out there are far fewer Wealthy, Cisgender, Heterosexual, Anglo-Saxon, Protestants, Men than there are... other people. Catering to them exclusively seems to SEVERLY limits your potential customer base.

I'm going to give the #Switch2 a half-year before I jump in. My current plan is to grab a Steam Deck as a semi-replacement for my aging Razer Blade 2020. Keyboard's semi-busted (I have to ctrl+V to type in Ds) and it roars running ANY games. Maybe see about a cheap netbook later.

I'm not getting the hate for this. Having a way to be 100% sure that [insert public figure/organization here] actually IS [insert public figure/organization here] is useful. As long as it doesn't become a Premium Badge of +5 Engagement, I see no issues. Though, I'd have come up with a NEW icon.

But they ARE fixing the most glaring issue with out economy: The fact that the economy isn't entirely based around them and their closest friends continually passing wads of cash back and forth like the world's most boringly asinine game of Go Fish.

Caesar has become so consumed with envy and avarice that he is willing to put the torch to Rome personally to keep the plebs from eating any of HIS bread or enjoying any of HIS circuses. Screw us, got his AND ours.

Just got out of #thedaytheearthblewup. Probably one of the best films I've seen in years. We NEED more classic cartoons like this. Shame on the WBD big wigs for trying to bury it.

Here, flipping, here!

We MUST nip this madness in the bud before it fully sprouts and starts choking the entire forest. #TransRightsAreHumanRights

Support trans people 👍

Honestly yeah, good advice. I'll try to follow it, myself. #neversayhisname

Dear, @bsky.app, If I could make a feature suggestion: could y'all set up push notes for posts? I check a box on a profile and get a ping when that profile posts? It's the ONE feature from the OTHER site that y'all don't have, yet. Please & Thanks.
