When I mean "bitter sweet tragic", the first anime song that comes to mind is the song that plays when Kikyo is mentioned/enters in "Inuyasha"

I'm trying to learn German& Polish and definitely quite the experience, especially for Polish. Polish folks, how do you do it?

"Sign of Affection" is very wholesome anime. Is there someone I can discuss this show with?

Me and my sewing machine aren't friends rn.

Did someone say "DILFs"?

Japanese Okarun and English Okarun! 😄 Anime Expo story time! On one of the last days of the convention, i ran into Hanae-san in the elevator 🤯! We were So excited to see each other after it had been so long, we just had to take a quick picture! Haha So good to see you! @hanae0626.bsky.social

Guys….the seasons over :(

Here's another cope. Not everyone can STOP working to take care of the kids. In the US, having two incomes is how you survive. If you give a flying fuck about parents why aren't you advocating for parental leave and job protection? These are really dumb ppl coming from the Kirkaverse

MANY conservative talking heads do NOT practice what they preach. Erika Kirk was OLDER than Charlie. She has a job. She attended University. She had kids in her 30s. Also, she is not the only conservative pundit to do this. Again, they don't practice what they preach.

My latest sewing project is driving me up the wall.

Gosh, we can never go a year without a supposed rapture date.

I would love to see a Zelda and Link as ancient CHamorus.

Do we need to go over the list of people who are NOT White but push white supremacy? At this point, we need to stop acting shocked.

I’d completely forgotten that Homan spoke at the Moonie offshoot church that worships AR-15s. Remind me again, why did we stop calling them weird?

This

This shouldn't be seen as "un-American" nor should this be seen as a "hot take"

Also, I am feeling inspired. Thanks #FruitsBasket

If you're mad about the changes made to the live action Lilo & Stitch movie, read Sisters In The Wind by Angeline Boulley. Keep Native families together. Protect ICWA. Uphold Tribal Sovereignty.

So if you watched Fruits Basket, you learn about Tohru's mom Kyoko being in a "Delinquent Girl Gangs". I didn't know it was a Japanese subculture. It's interesting. So I figured I'd show below what it looked like in the 70s and show comparison Arisa and Kyoko.

So I never really watched AnimeMen, but I did listen to their music covers a few times. But holy shit this was a good breakdown of why AnimeMen's analysis was bad. You may not like some of the older anime, but you have to try and put yourself in the shoes of older ppl who grew up with this.

Marin is everything that JK Rowling hates about women characters or ppl in general. -Marin is super girly in her attire. -Marin is a romantic and expresses her feelings. -She can be perceived as "ditsy" but she's a teen. -She also has dressed as the opposite gender and learned to be "masc".

Idk if JK Rowling likes anime, but I know she really doesn't like hyperfemme/traditional women. BTW, I think we should have discussions about beauty conventions and how ppl are to conform to their "role". But I have a feeling that JKR would HATE Marin from "My Dress-up Darling". IFYKYK.

Hey, all! I'll be at #TheNostalgiaCon in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in a little less than 2 weeks! It's from September 26th through the 28th at the Baird Center. 400 W Wisconsin Ave, Milwaukee, WI 53203 If you want to come say hi, you can get your tickets at thenostalgiacon.com. Hope to see you there!

1/2 Orig post: Anime Aeschetics on Twitter. I understand preferring sub over dub. Gods know, I remember Sailor Moon dub erasing Uranus and Neptune's relationship, but these days, many anti-woke grifters complain about dub vs sub, because "woke", I guess.

Ok, I finished "Fruits Basket" all the seasons within 4 days. Damn, my fee-fees got hit.

So aeschetic

Here's the discussion that HAS TO BE had when discussing "big pharma".

I hope you can enjoy this Ceramic Pumpkin, with Polish Design. Perhaps as a #palatecleanser.

Laura Loomer pretends she wasn't beefing with Charlie and apparently she's 32. How do I look younger than Loomer?

This is very important.

Neoliberals are dangerous and are more worried about their fascist friends than anyone else. The Democratic Party elite is complicit with the fascist attack on society. Ezra Klein, abundance and neoliberalism are an authoritarian threat to the country. Carlie Kirk was a fascist. Nothing more.

You’d think Charlie Kirk was the pope the way they’re covering his death

Dammit, I started watching "Fruits Basket".

Mr. Roger's mom told him when a bad thing is happening on TV etc & one is feeling scared, “Always look for the helpers. There will always be helpers.” Always strive to be a helper in life.

One day after the Supreme Court lifted the ban on racial profiling, federal agents swarmed a car in Van Nuys. Four masked agents with guns drawn yanked people out, slammed them to the ground, and pointed a weapon at a pregnant woman. There is no justification for this. None.

New video is up on why Sesame Street is such an essential TV show and why PragerU Kids will never replace it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_R9...

It would be funny if women went on strike, women in Iceland did in 1975.

found out what former Wondery COO Jeanine Wright is up to: flooding the internet with unlistenable AI podcasts Her company has put out around 156,000 AI podcast episodes in two years and has averaged about 64 listens per podcast total in that time (less than one download a week)

I know my web novel isn't the best, but I at least I have enough dignity to NOT use AI to write slop novels.

It feels like a troll recipe. A troll recipe an American gives to a non-American to see if they make it to share on the internet.

People romanticize the past of "Organic food, no phones, and humble living" so much they'll overlook "Disease, shorter life spans, and hard labor". I wonder if anti-vax people would like to go back in time and tell their ancestors why they wouldn't vax. Their ancestors would slap them.

I'm rewatching "My Dress-up Darling". I really like it.

When does a critic on YouTube become a grifter?

There is a fascinating podcast called "SNAPPED" by Lucy Taylor that goes into various pieces of Greek Life history and dark underbelly.

LA peeps and Native/Pasifika creatives! 👀

Graham Linehan finally got noticed by JK Rowling. In other words "Senpai noticed him".

The thing about Graham and other Gender Criticals, they go after women. Especially women who empathize with transpeople. They think ciswomen who support transpeople are to be met with suspicion at best or as traitors at worst.

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana or Pearl Jam.

Watch literally anything made by an actual Indigenous person instead of a non Native white British woman who calls us Indians.

Why are you guys taking the word of a non Native white woman over the Indigenous people who are literally telling you NOT to call us Indians? Why do you think this is remotely acceptable? Why does your social justice not include us?
