So, folks are finally getting their Dirty Pair BDs after 4 fucking years, & here’s the TLDR on what we all expected 1. Several missing stretch goals 2. Bootleg-tier art design/packaging. Cases are low quality & discs are stacked 3. No menu music. It takes <5sec to cut an OP out of an audio file btw

Lest you think it’s a bunch of rednecks boycotting it…two of the stations are in Seattle and Portland (Oregon).

Bills are starting to pile up. Dance classes aren't filling up like they usually do. Need help. Please consider recommending me for a freelance writing job, donating to my Venmo, or reposting this to help me stay afloat. Venmo: @LBBryant001 Writing Portfolio: lbbryant.journoportfolio.com

Going in for my top surgery consult tomorrow! I have a Ko-fi to help with costs while I'm recovering. If you're looking for a trans person to support, you found one. I've waited 6 years since realizing I wanted this to be certain it was not an impulsive choice. It's time. ko-fi.com/U7U613D3A4

My company is getting LIT UP a with calls and e-mails about us advertising on KOMO who’s not airing Kimmel lol

What the fuck

It’s the day of FLASH POINT reviews it seems! Another great review which ponders the different perspectives readers might bring to this book.

Progress is underway, thank you all for the support so far. I've gotten today's bill fully covered, and I'm now just about $229 away from having the overdue payment taken care of too. Thank you so much so far. Every little bit helps!

I'm really sorry for things still being so hard--I need all the help I can get today, without exaggeration. I'm trusting it'll all be okay... I'm $3 short for a bill due today, and I still am raking up $300 for an overdue payment needed ASAP. Nothing is too small. paypal.me/kittytama #helpsky

This week is a great time to make sure your collection development policy has language about information accuracy. Budgets are limited and we have a responsibility to our communities.

It is okay to feel exhausted; it is okay to feel discouraged We live in exhausting times, we live in discouraging times, we live in the times that try everyone's hearts But it is NOT okay to stop fighting For ours is the fury, the side of what's good and right and just in the world, and must win

At times we feel overwhelmed by the constant bombardment from the regime. They want to paralyze us. To help us focus & decide where to begin my “Say NO to Whack-A-Mole” web pages are published. Centre Co, PA, focus but some apply elsewhere. @indivisible.org @keystonecc.bsky.social

There is little distance between this and preventive detention in concentration camps. Dachau was started in 1933, not long after Hitler took power.

this isn’t cosplay, but this is an example of something you can trust (this is the single best video I’ve seen in my life on how to cover acne and it has English subs) Skin is visibly imperfect at the beginning and some of these concealer palettes are heavily used. That’s how you know it’s real.

This has got to be fake...

Cool translation event coming up in Tokyo feat. Yuki Tejima, Jesse Kirkwood, Ginny Tapley Takemori, and Kalau Almony 👀📚 parallelwords-1.peatix.com

But do pay attention to what he says about immigrants in Britain or "suppression of free speech" which is just as unscientific? The Government should co-ordinate its messaging or at least spell out which idiocies it expects to to believe and which to reject.

Governments should encourage rewilding. It's good for the environment and the level of top quality work at very low cost cannot be matched by any current public works contractor.

This Gyaru’s Got a Thing for… Vampire Hunters?! LN 1 review: suitablefortreatment.mangabookshelf.com/2025/09/23/t...

Call of the Night S2 far exceeded my already high expectations, leaving a hole in my heart with no more weekly episodes to translate. Hopefully there'll be a S3? Please? Miyuki Sawashiro's top-notch voice acting absolutely stole the show, from Anko's unhinged banter to the heart-wrenching

Very good panel.

The joke here is that it’s a Pacific saury or sanma, 秋刀魚, very roughly translated as “autumn sword fish” (or fish that’s shaped like a sword that shows up each autumn).

Time to polish up my writing resume and portfolio. I'm ready to jump back into the field and start applying for writing work again. I have 20 years of experience with reviews, news, short-form features (1500 words), and helping with fiction shaping. If you know of any staff openings, pls ping.

Just offering some casual art knowledge that liquid chalk marker shows up extremely bright and lasts longer than regular chalk, even through several rains.

It's a double dose of green yuri today thanks to letterer @brandonbovia.bsky.social! Lettering handwritten notes doesn't necessarily mean rewriting everything from scratch! A keen eye for font selection and deft hand at skillful placement makes all the difference in a smooth reading experience!

Hey Seattle! I just found this list of companies on Reddit that advertise with Sinclair Broadcasting. I think you know what to do. www.reddit.com/r/Seattle/co...

work in progress

Reminder that Disney+ is a BDS consumer boycott target. If you were boycotting, by every and all means, continue. So many people figured it out for that moment. Keep using your alternatives! Tell a friend!

When you’ve been in Japan so long that you have pictures of Sky Tree mid-construction 😂 I lived on a Tobu line during that time and they wouldn’t shut up about this project. I think one day I got curious and walked over…

Yvaine and Kaylee 💜

Please help Ayumi if you can!!!

Does anyone else need less bullshit on their feeds and more trains? Let me help you. Shinagawa to Kawasaki on the Keikyu line, now. May the ever 気まぐれ gods of video compression be with you.

"Todas las opiniones son válidas 🤗" es algo que se le puede decir a un nenito de jardín que piensa que el azul es lindo y el verde es feo. No así en el caso de un señor cuya **opinión** es que hay que batar a los put0s y dejar de vacunar a las niñas. A ver si nos ponemos pillos.

I just hEARD THE RAPTURE IS SUPPOSED TO BE WEDNESDAY PLEASE GOD PLEASE. PLEASE COME GET THESE MOTHERFUCKERS. PLEASE. I WILL HELP YOU WITH GAS MONEY OR CLEANING UP EMPTY CLOTHES. PLEASE. I WILL HELP WITH MOVING ALL THE CRASHED CARS. I WILL FEED ABANDONED PETS. JUST PLEASE COME GET THEM.

Good morning and welcome to equinox flower appreciation week over here at this account. As it has always been and so it will always be.

I’m so sad S2 of My Dress-Up Darling is over 😭 but it was so wonderful… I love these kids and their nerd friends so much. Thank you to everyone who watched S2! 💖💖

SCOOP — Part of the reason Disney/ABC may have rushed to sort things out with Kimmel is because tomorrow they have a planned price increase for Disney+ streaming, a Disney source tells me. With subscriptions hemorrhaging since last week, they couldn’t risk losing more users with this announcement.

Check out my friend Elissa’s new blog post. It will come in handy since the U.S. government is pushing out nonsense not backed by science.

Visited Ishinomaki, Miyagi Prefecture. Shotaro Ishinomori, who is from the area, and his legacy are celebrated here, and as such, the streets (the main one of which is called Manga Road) are filled with Kamen Rider, Cyborg 009, and more statues!

If you’re in the area (which isn’t too hard to get to from Sendai Station, just need to time it right!) you must visit the Ishinomori Manga Museum as well. It’s chock full of awesome displays and interactive exhibits showcasing much of Ishinomori’s works.

Always interesting to be reminded how culturally bound things like "fame" are. I was out with a group of about 20 Japanese people and not a single one of them had ever heard of Junji Ito. When I asked them if they knew Mizuki Shigeru, they all looked at me like I was joking. Of course they did.

Three weeks left on my current writing contract. If you're interested in having me work on your team as a freelance writer or a full-time project manager/coordinator, I will soon have availability for both.

this week: hilary back again on the BL beat! @fujoshiunite.bsky.social on arranged dating! i wrote about when i worked down the street from comet ping pong!

Good news! With the release of the City Hunter and Cat's Eye manga this week, we're coming back to record a new episode of Mokkoriplay, the Internet's only City Hunter podcast! Recording an episode about the manga release this week, so I'll be updating with more info on that soon!

I hadn’t heard anything about this guy for a long time, so I’m very glad that’s he got out.

one last little loc note: this kid says "...the day my ~fantasy~ began" (fantajii: as in, the genre) in JPN, but that needed a qualifier to work in ENG, lest it sound like he's talking about a kink
