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

I don't think many people are watching Twisted Wonderland but this is the SECOND episodic review I've written about eggs:

a reminder for the millionth time: your peers, NOT corporations, are making the media you want !!!!!!!!!

Do not use Progressive insurance. When I was in a car accident they made me describe my situation with EMOJIS. It happened December 2 and I still have not been able to talk to a human rep.

Me when the yuri hits

Me when I see a MAGA

This entire grift relies on convincing people that they don't know how to do the things they have always known how to do, and ironically, if it works, we will, in a very short amount of time, forget how to do all the things we have always known how to do.
