It feels like tempting fate as we keep nicknaming phenomeon of the universe like this

If you see this post your favorite final fantasy character Beyond everything in the game narratively he is the playable character the first time The Man with a Machine Gun plays.

Seeing end of year lists is never "I put my time into many things I enjoyed" but "why didn't I put my time into all this".

JIMMY CORRIGAN: GOD'S VENGEANCE ON EARTH

Truly funny to watch the mcu lurch uncontrollably into the continuity and retcons inherent in all the stories it is pulling from, at a record pace too.

Its time

This is the cover art I did for NOVA, a manga zine from the 1980's. I was a huge fan of Patalliro, and had the albums, laser disc film, and most of the manga. I don't keep up with it anymore, but I really loved the unique art style.

It's been weird listening to the podcast for the first time in the year in which the 45 brains are supposed to come online.

A new Your Uncle’s Beach House! I was joined once again by @greatgrebe.bsky.social and @poyfuh.bsky.social to talk about It’s MyGO!!!!!’s dissonant sequel Ave Mujica! We have a lot of thoughts about this season, but we are united in one thing: we stan Nyamu www.abnormalmapping.com/your-uncles-...

These 3 days of work feel the most fake

A new Abnormal Mapping! We played Mega Man 7 & 8 and talk about the highs and lows of jumping and shooting. Mega Man 8 remains cool as hell one of the best www.abnormalmapping.com/the-abnormal...

"look we're not using AI in the final product we're just using it to speed up the conceptual stage" is what a lot of dopes affecting an enlightened middle position keep saying. I truly do not get that one. You hate imagining stuff? You don't like thinking and conceptualizing? Get a grip

I do think people generally do not connect the dots from we all use platforms that monetize and are fuelled on attention and this includes artists trying to make it, so when you decided to give brainstorming to generative tools it still reflects back on artists.

I dunno I think the lord would appreciate a backwards long jump

I feel like this will become the "sensible" answer to questions of companies using this shit going forward as more upper management pushes it down on people. Shit sucks.

Last friday, we released our first discussion episode on Turn A Gundam! We covered episodes 1–6 and unpacked what is even happening in the first few episodes as we immediately drop to Earth with bewilderment. Listen now at exportaud.io (or wait like a chump for it to hit the free feed next friday)

lmaooo

A new Around the Long Fire! Life got very busy for both of us so we didn’t read The Iliad this week, but we have plenty of things to talk about! Please enjoy this eventful free talk www.abnormalmapping.com/around-the-l...

My webcomic ANNIVERSARY is launching? debuting? early 2026 on Neocities. very excited, been working on it for the past few years, and now it’s ready For mature readers, it’s BL in a very loose sense. It’s gratuitous, sexy, and a bit gorey, set in an anachronistic medieval world. 🖤

Lmao looking at the credits of the next Mirror Mirror and beyond the 2dc shit the perfect mix of stuff I want and no fucking thank you.

The #NewYorkGameAwards nominees for Best Games Journalism are: 🔵 Duncan Fyfe 🔵 Felipe Pepe 🔵 Jackson Tyler 🔵 Joseph Earl Thomas 🔵 Lewis Gordon 🔵 Nicanor Gordon 🔵 People Make Games

A new Block Busters for all $5+ patrons! We watched Dark City, a movie that really reminded us of the joy of going to the movies and watching some mid-tier genre fare back when movies still had the magic to them. Shout out to Kiefer. www.patreon.com/posts/block-...

Had to cleanse by looping this a few times after seeing that trailer m.youtube.com/watch?v=O8hi...

Crystal review...!

So much hand wringing about people hoping governments can be trusted with this ghoulish shit and then immediately oh you can't travel and the system is broken all we can approve is death www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

There's a new Manga Cafe up for our $1 patrons! Em and I dive deep on the recently completed series, Land of the Lustrous. I think we are in agreement that this is a masterpiece of sci fi manga and an all time fav for us both. It's a great convo, and also very silly. www.patreon.com/posts/manga-...

🚨PLEASE BOOST IF YOU SEE THIS🚨 We’re on the last day to pay our landlord back before they seek legal action!! We still need $1350. We’re desperate and stressed and really need a break. Every repost and $1 genuinely helps out two disabled trans lesbians!! #MutualAidBoost #TransCrowdfund

A new Around the Long Fire! We reflect on Thanksgiving and family trauma, talk about the history of queer identity, and watch some movies. Also, the Iliad. Please enjoy! www.abnormalmapping.com/around-the-l...

qt dunking on the news post for an ai commercial feels even less relevant than the other forms of those dunks that just serve to spread shit you dont like or support into everyone's face no one needs to be told the people who work at the evil burger company are working overtime making garbage.

It’s the weekly schedule! ALF continues to read the Iliad, Pootan ponders who knows what (we record tomorrow), Em takes control of my other podcast with her to cover Land of the Lustrous with Autumn, and Ghost Divers starts to dig into the first 6 episodes of Turn A Gundam. Listen at exportaud.io!

For our $5 patrons, there's a new episode of Coffee & Comic Books! Rick and I talked about Inio Asano's Nijigahara Holograph. It's a great episode IMO. You can hear me learn to love the book over the course of the conversation in a fun way www.patreon.com/posts/coffee...

There are many comics I love more however no comics to me hit the brain more perfectly than late 80s drawn Giffen comics.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque: "This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

Who says that time has to move ahead toward the future?Forget all about your regrets, and dive into Turn A Gundam... This week, Connor and Niamh discuss their own dark histories with our upcoming series Turn A Gundam and with Gundam in general. Listen to the intro episode at exportaud.io/ghostdivers

It's weird reading the timeline today given I just watched Get Lamp earlier this week, that is a fun doc.

This is from 2022 so these numbers are probably worse now but this is a breakdown of Netflix movies by decade. Just think about it whenever they come up.

Fun fact: Spotify Wrapped is the biggest marketing push of the year for a company that steals money from artists and invests that money in AI and drone warfare.

everyone is still lost in the end of history neoliberal brain curse huh? “What if non disabled people use disabled accommodations tho?!” Make accommodations for everyone and it doesn’t matter, universally, make a more accommodating world and everyone wins. No one can “cheat” w universal programs
