Ever tried boiled pasta? Not as crunchy but still good

The reason you need to be guilty “beyond a reasonable doubt” in a courtroom is that the court is going to *put you in prison* or *kill you*. No such standards apply to the “court of public opinion” because the stakes are being yelled at in a restaurant! I hate these fucking people.

scully you're not gonna believe this

Was idly puzzling about the seemingly common shoujo romance premise about encountering a guy who kind of annoys you but becomes endearing over time, then something randomly clicked and I realized that is literally the tsundere archetype from the opposite perspective.

hi lalah [ #arttag ]

Mixing for the first time in months

The Ikoku Nikki anime has been great on all fronts so far but I particularly like capping off each episode with this ending song youtu.be/fyzUQiDSXqs

Thinking about this sick eyecatch from L-Gaim

i just got a new job at Bluesky Inc. where my job is i'm the person who decides if your links embed successfully on Discord or not. on a good day i spend about 7.5 hours on the toilet

Lmao it's so busted that twitter.com doesn't even 301 over to x.com right now

Well I guess Trump has now fully achieved the ambitions of Power from Chainsaw Man: - Nobel Prize - attain high executive office - enact economically ruinous consumption taxes - generally promote human suffering

Very cool that we've added yet another way for this fairly common Japanese name to confuse people. (A girl on my floor in college had mildly eccentric roommate by this name and learned very quickly to specify "Ai, my roommate" in anecdotes so no one thought she was saying "I".)

there is palpable relief every time news is like "Shounen McBigShounen Creator Arrested For Tax Evasion"

And Gundam is aircraft carriers

Never change Gundam fans I love you all

when you look at both fan recreations and AI-generated imagery, they both converge on a homogenization of the ~1985-2003 period into a single bloc, much like Lana Del Rey (and lately Ethel Cain) videos do with old Americana

they’re warning u about

Ah fuck I used this security system and two little guys snuck into my house and destroyed my most prized possession

frieren

Amuro weeping and saying, "I've done something terrible... I've done something I can never take back" is one of those lines that just sticks with me. One of the most heartbreaking moments in Gundam. Poor kid...

AI hype has included a lot of "AI can do your job!" that reveals that AI boosters have no idea what anyone does for a living (which is normal--people don't understand each other's jobs--but have some humility about it)

Finally got time to do a little doodle, made some Amuro and Gundam fanart. First time drawing a mobile suit!

sheesh, the only thing worse than getting kicked out of the polycule is finding out via jira ticket 😣

"And in his last, desperate attempt to quell the roaring emptiness inside him, Kenny started collecting anime on Video-8. Some say they found his name on a tarp behind a Dollar Tree Warehouse, but it was probably kids"

One of the biggest moments of my career: USCIS canceled my client’s naturalization oath ceremony. We filed a lawsuit, went to trial, and the judge swore him in right there in the courtroom!

Pro Tip: Instead of looking for an anime with a "90s aesthetic", just watch a 90s anime. HUGE time saver.

I think I will use the internet to experience some of the most profound art ever created, wait hold up, this one got me laughin again

Just realized I never ported this over from the birdsite

#Va11hallA season ✨🍸✨

Frozen bao half price at H Mart let's go

I like when fansubs go "I have no idea what this is" in the middle of a scene . As if it's a personal failing on their part to not know absolutely everything about the show they are subing.

"No you don't understand, I need $10,000 worth of RAM Sticks to rip VHS Tapes for people on Youtube......why are you laughing! I"M BEING SERIOUS!!! We only have a few years until all the rare anime is unplayable!!! WHY IS NOBODY TAKING THIS SERIOUSLY ???!!"

Filipino escabeche tonight

Once again getting impromptu Japanese listening practice via Netflix's shoddy subtitle timing.

talk to the guy in your life that looks like this about setting up jellyfin today

Guys, I haven’t been able to say anything due to an NDA but I’ve been working like a MAD MAN on a project for HBO the past 6 months converting a very beloved AMC show into 4K and I hope everyone appreciates all the hard work I’ve put into it 😊

All of the companies that make the software I use are increasing their prices, to account for an "investment" in AI. I'm sat here imagining how my clients would feel if I added 30% to each invoice, because I "really got into gambling".

Lol. (The VA-11 Hall-A soundtrack is my go-to work music, hence its prominence)

no Mr President, nooooo

...But with the uptick in streaming platforms using AI-generated closed captions, they end up looking a lot like YouTube's auto-generated CCs. It doesn't recognize what people are saying, it gets names and terminology wrong, and it can't pick up sound effects or musical cues. (cont.)...

day 1 is "penzeys revolution blend" and i cant stop laughing at "we have to GET RID of this lying, cheating, CORRUPT SCUMBAG PRESIDENT!! RESIST! REVOLT! REVOLUTION NOW!! good on roast poultry and carrots"
