Do my AB volunteer pals a favor and share your questions!

I have 23 days to finish my Akanebanashi yuri fan art and get y'all on board with my ship before episode one goes up.

Logging on to Bluesky for the first time in a month to share my gym goals Gold Ship:

At a time when fan entitlement of celebrity bodies is through the roof, this thriller about kidnapping a K-Pop idol is more relevant than ever: www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/holy-...

My goal was to draw 30 horse girls in January. Each one got more complex, and I only drew 12. But that's still 12 drawings I didn't have before.

I cannot emphasize enough that horse girl yuri is the glue that is holding my life together

For the general strike today, I went to my local romance bookstore Friends And Lovers to connect with community, write letters to my representatives, and buy the green yuri with cash.

Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

I reviewed seasons 1 and 2, and now I'm back reviewing the 3rd season of Oshi No Ko: www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/oshi-...

Grok is so much worse than you think.

Went to a neighborhood block party and a hyperlocal Dems party and it made me feel more hopeful and ready to take action than the last few weeks of reading the news did.

This is why trans rights are my number one issue.

I can't trust politicians who are anti-trans. Not because I'm "only searching for perfection" which is what centrists will be accusing me of for the rest of my life, it's because if you're not pro-trans you'll be garbage on lots of other issues too. Being anti-trans NEVER exists in a vacuum.

I reviewed the Oshi No Ko premiere:

my nth attempt to uma-lized 🔴

Discord wants to know how you feel about AI. Go tell them: discord.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

There’s a loneliness crisis which the media decided to treat as just as male loneliness crisis open.substack.com/pub/theargum...

Remarkably good thread about a bad tendency on here

I can’t get over all the journalists and centrist pundits who sneered that “Twitter isn’t real life” when it was full of weird leftists but now insist it’s a vital window into the public mood when the entire site is Nazis, illegal porn, bots, and Belarusians calling themselves “Iowa MAGA Farm Guy”

i miss when this guy was the only LLM

The success of Heated Rivalry makes the disappearance of Yuri on Ice and Sayo Yamamoto all the more sad to me.

This month's goal is to draw an uma musume every day.

A reminder - before Trump, MAGA, Musk and Fox rewrote history - that this is what the entire country agreed had happened five years ago today:

Weird glitch on the Golden Kamuy premiere that made it only 5 minutes long. Or at least it went by so quickly, it felt that way www.animenewsnetwork.com/preview-guid...

So when can you start

new years thoughts

Gym was surprisingly dead for 1/1. I wore a 10-year-old shirt.

Hello, I’m Boichi. A mangaka. Nice to meet you. はじめまして、ボイチです。 漫画家です。 よろしくお願いします。

I wrote 8 of these! It's been a good year for anime and manga.

I assume someone has posted this before but it's my morning intrusive thought

This is the best bit of advice I’ve seen on the internet 😂

Y’all, the Castlevania: Awakening In The Moonlight musical by Takarazuka Revue is available legally on VOD with subtitles starting today until the end of March, this is a great adaptation and the women in this show are so good, PLUS this is a rare experiment globally Please see it if you’re curious

never has a meme format been so well matched to its subject

meee :3

Everyone is making fun of this but we should really be paying our brave penissmiths more. I remember when my son was born and they whipped it up faster than tableside guac.

The silver lining of this show getting dubtitles? I watched the English dub and I loved it. www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/disne...

Harikitte ikou? Harikitte ikou tonite queen?

In today’s flagged as adult content edition of This Week in Anime, @bwprowl.bsky.social open up the gift of new-to-us anime! Our lovely editors treated me well this year! Something off about that one show though… Can’t place my finger on why… www.animenewsnetwork.com/this-week-in...

Ya boy was one of the people reached out to for providing info to this piece. Thanks again to @laurenorsini.bsky.social for putting it all together.

Just read Madeline's Christmas to the kids in which Madeline (she of the old house in Paris covered with vines), it turns out, is not an orphan? My whole life has been a lie.

Idk who needs to hear this, but talking to blorbo on the plagerism machine is crossing the picket line.

This is 100% a horse slur @bwprowl.bsky.social

One of the wildest parts of the Luigi story is that he didn’t actually do it lol We’ve been saying that since day one
