Happy New Year, lovelies 🥳🎉💜

Two of my friends challenged me to use LibraryThing because they wanted to see exactly how much manga I own. Bets are ranging from 100 (definitely more than that 🤣) to 400. Place your bets on how many mangas I actually own 😁

It's time to count down the very best anime of the year, from the characters we couldn't help rooting for to the songs at the top of our playlists!

I just saw myself on AEW Collision cheering on the Protostar. OMG 😅

Celebrating with some Christmas Yuri. Merry Christmas, everyone 🎄🤶🏾❄️

LFG!!!! 🤩

Meeting Dalton Castle at the AEW Collision taping, and him complementing on my Luna tattoo was so epic! Equally epic was one of the referees gave me an ornament from a demolished tree. Best Christmas gift ever!

Listen to Sailor Moon. (Also, transfeminine people are beautiful regardless of whether they are feminine or "passable", damn it.)

I want 🤩

Oh my God....

The Darwin Incident TV anime will debut on January 6, and the staff have revealed a new promo video and five more cast members.

Happy Pansexual Pride Day 🩷💛💙

KOMODO will launch its manga platform NIUHI on the iPhone App Store in the U.S. and Japan on December 1, 2025, with a Google Play version coming soon!

I want and need this. The movie was so damn good 🖤

BREAKING: Zohran Mamdani will be the next mayor of New York City after running on a platform centered on making the city affordable for working people.

He did it!!! 🥳🥳🥳

Friends, Tuesday is Election Day in NYC, and it's time to VOTE FOR @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social! Here's a thread of why I'm voting for him, along with photos I've taken over the past few months. FIRST, the dude cares. He loves this city and he loves us. And care > punishment, baby.

Something else I did today 😊

I already heard about the VIZ issue. Dick move, VIZ. I really wanted the manga too, but don't disrespect your fans like that. Everything's toxic enough as it is.

And with that, NYCC is done, and I get to rest from conventions for at least eight months. This was another great year spent with friends and colleagues and meeting industry pros. If I didn't see you, I'm so sorry. Looking forward to next year. I'm not looking forward to laundry tomorrow.
