We need to sit down every gen z prude who said sex scenes never add to the story and have them watch Heated Rivalry.

Cold day, lazy boys.

Carnitas Pork shoulder slow-cooked in cumin, oregano, peppers, garlic, and orange juice. Chopped and shredded, spread and pan fried until one side is crispy and slightly charred. Cooking liquid added and reduced. Served on corn tortillas, micro greens, onions, and a garlic ghost pepper sauce.

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

Slightly diminish a game. Devil Might Cry

Revue Starlight and its sequel film tell such a complimentary and complete story, I wonder what the just announced new production will be about. That said, I'll never turn down more RS. The film is one of my all time favorites.

The Earthbound Mole: The animation style is unique, the characters are bizarre, and there’s something weirdly grounded about the human element of the supernatural incidents. Plus the 37 year old eccentric cat-loving wife who is aggressively affectionate with her deadpan husband, is basically me.

To Be Hero X: It’s rare to see a show w/ so many characters & overlapping plots nail the landing so fantastically, and it’s just the start of a bigger story! Ep 20 was maybe the most hype I’ve ever felt watching tv. The shifts in animation style are dynamically breathtaking. I could go on forever...

ICE agent kills woman, DHS tells obvious, insane lies about it: defector.com/ice-agent-ki...

Ok maybe auto-inserted ads in podcasts are good actually.

Hattey’s Most Enjoyed Anime of 2025! Here are my reviews and recommendations:

You should watch Apocalypse Hotel.

2025 was a phenomenal year for anime, with absolute gems in just about every genre. In no particular order as usual, here are my favorite 10 shows from this year.

Been playing the Silent Hill 2 remake. Immediately this feels much better to play than SHf. Combat is simple and frantic but methodical, whereas f is twitchy and burdened with too many mechanics. Resource management is much more balanced as well.

Watched several videos of other countries' NYE celebrations tonight. The fact that the US is the only one that's absolutely plastered with ads, literally couldn't go a minute without a visual or verbal mention, it is also the saddest soggy cardboard of a show. What are we even doing here?

If you saw the new Sword and Fairy remake and want to learn more about Chinese & Taiwanese RPGs, I wrote an overview of their history & stand-out games back in 2021: felipepepe.medium.com/before-gensh... And the thread below has recommendations of games available in English you can start with :)

NYE dinner, beef roast rigatoni.

That's a wrap on Silent Hill f. Great sound design and monster design, Ebisugaoka is hauntingly beautiful, fantastic VO (JP). Really don't like that the first playthrough is guaranteed bad ending and the true ending requires minimum 3 playthroughs.

On December 26, China opened two new HSR lines: Xi'an to Yan'an (299km) and Hangzhou to Quzhou (131km). Meanwhile, the United States bombed Nigeria and continued its aggression against Venezuela and Latin America. China builds, the US bombs.

My whole life we’ve been told that The US is simply too big to have high speed rail

In this house we celebrate Christmas the new old fashioned way: with smashed jiaozi and Vietnamese cinnamon rolls.

Titanfall 2's campaign is nothing short of a masterpiece, and what a gift it was for all of us. Such heart, incredible design, impeccable mechanics. Nearly ten years later it more than holds up, it remains arguably the pinnacle of the genre. If you've never played it, please do so.

So the season 2 finale of Ranma aired the other day and they added a line to make Akane pansexual, or at the very least, Ran-sexual

With the New Year just around the corner, we’re wishing you a safe, peaceful, and cozy holiday season. ❄️🏹☀️ The Steam Winter Sale officially kicks off today, and Nine Sols is available at 40% off for a limited time!

That's a wrap on Ghost of Yotei. A classic revenge story but at every turn there's hope and redemption. Good variety of weapons and meaningful upgrades kept my 80+ hours playthrough breezy. Visually stunning but the lighting/contrast is quite harsh on my OLED, the pause menu actively hurt my eyes

Ghost of Yotei hitting me with the "CHAPTER 2" title card after playing 60+ hours.

Kojima, nine nominations later: "I'm just happy to be here and see my friend Geoff."

Very few things I want to do less than watch them make a mockery of my favorite Mario game in theater.

I love Clair Obscur but this is just silly now.

Yan-su-ji 🇹🇼 Deboned skin-on chicken thigh marinated in soy, garlic, and michu. Batter with salt and white pepper mixed in and coated in coarse sweet potatoe starch. Twice fried with basil, chili and pepper sprinkle.

[Heartbreaking] 36 year old man excitedly explains the plots of Stranger Things to a group of disinterested retirees at the local dive bar.

Hot take maybe but you don't need butter to cook turkey.

SADAKO for VOGUE JAPAN

Sensational.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

[Out at a bar after 10pm on a weekend] DJ: Something old school for y'all right now [Plays In Da Club by 50 Cent] Me: Alright.

I have somehow managed to get a bruise configuration on my leg that looks like a little screaming face. At first it creeped me out a bit, now it just makes me laugh. Last night, I outlined it and realized that it looks like a furby. 😆

Chicken Parmesan Quick no bake version. Chicken breast breaded with crumbs and herbs and air fried. Sauce made with homegrown tomatoes. Parmesan, grated and hand torched.

HIM has a predictable plot and a villain it thinks is more charismatic than he really was, but it is visually striking with impeccable soundtracks throughout, and a really fun climatic finale.

Our foreign policy now, apparently.

Just me and my whole food dollar oysters tonight folks.

The way I cackled when Yano-kun's episode ended and the ED began with a smash cut to Yano gracefully getting nailed in the face by a soccer ball in slow motion.

Resting my arm and hand on my crossbody purse while I’m walking like a samurai

Oxtail Dirty Rice Oxtail stewed in Creole spices, chilled and shredded. Onion, shallot, celerys, peppers, carrots, mushrooms, and kales sauteed and cooked with jasmine rice in broth. Oxtail in at the end and mixed thoroughly. Topped with gravy made from the oxtail stew. Absolutely divine.

"Julia Garner, of Weapons fame" how dare.

Someone should write "They have left before. They will leave again" in bold on a whiteboard in the Bluesky HQ office.

being a cat person is so crazy bc you live with someone who is undeniably annoying and you're always thinking "maybe i should get another cat"

Nothing is true. Everything is permitted.
