Some pretty nice pickups this month. Especially happy with the One Piece volumes, they're in Norwegian and were a Christmas gift from my (Norwegian) girlfriend.

People crying on X: The Everything App™️ about the new Grok AI feature letting you use anyone's posts, including images and art, to create new AI generated content. What did they all expect staying on Nazi Twitter? I can't say I'm surprised...

YONA SEASON 2 IS CONFIRMED!

My son is home.

Merriam-Webster’s human editors have chosen ‘slop’ as the 2025 Word of the Year.

Shiori Experience Chapter 83 shorturl.at/u3rmp

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

I should probably shut up more.

Utterly unbelievable. Bungo Stray Dogs, published as a simulpub by @yenpress.com keeps getting leaked in English because they keep allowing webstores to offer a preview of the chapter BEFORE IT'S RELEASED. This means that the official English version is leaked before it's even out in Japan!

Mad Men 4K

look I live and breathe shonen manga, but I've been banging this drum for decades now there are *so* many excellent comics and shows from Japan that aren't for the shonen demographic--and more importantly--don't run in Weekly Shonen Jump

the fact that nick fuentes isn’t here but ms rachel is illustrates perfectly that groups like this don’t actually care about antisemitism at all

I fucking hate Adobe and their garbage software but I cannot deny that their support is goated. If you work for Adobe support, you're appreciated.

Quite excited about this new series by Shima Shinya!

Why isn't Pennywise in the Rings of Power?

Got a 📦 in from 🇯🇵! Got Afternoon issue 6, 2011 featuring VS chapter 73. I had never seen this cover before and ended up way overpaying for it in a bidding war... Next up is Look Back and the exclusive Original Storyboard given out at screenings in Japan. And the ending with Medarot DVDs!

Loving today's news that the mysterious "fedora man" outside the Louvre heist was actually a 15-year-old museum visitor who dresses like a 1940s French detective all the time, just because. apnews.com/article/louv...

Oh damn, u heard about this? a.co/d/0mVmipB

They say good things come in threes. Cheney died, Mamdani won... what's coming next? 👀

The ICJ has ruled that Israel’s Gaza aid blockade violates international law, citing its obligation to facilitate humanitarian relief for Palestinians.

I still remember my grandparents landline number that's been defunct for years. 465928 lol.

WildWords hundred percent autoleading

Had the absolute pleasure to see Black Country, New Road tonight in a sold out Paradiso, Amsterdam. Especially appreciated the moment they took halfway to reflect on the fact that they've sold out the most iconic and important venue in Amsterdam two nights in a row. "It's definitely not lost on us."

Some fantastic news this evening: Ian Watkins is rotting in hell! 🎉

It's... complete. After more than a decade of following this series, I finally have the final volume. What a journey it's been. It's crazy to look back and remember what a different person I was when I started reading it. Thank you Vinland Saga, forever. 🌾

"We all get something out of respecting pronouns. The people that are requesting certain pronouns get the respect they feel they deserve and we're learning a little grammar and syntax." Love these boys. youtu.be/BN6_3EGAvnQ?... (From 21:05 onwards)

the political policy cure for “male loneliness” is - more time to hang with the fellas (4 day work week) - more money to spend with the fellas (higher wages) - more things to do with the fellas (taxing the rich and building 3rd spaces)

Join Bilbo Baggins, Thorin, Gandalf, and all your favorite characters on the journey to the Lonely Mountain! There may or may not be a dragon involved. #MTGxHobbit

I'm back from my US trip. Was a really great three weeks. Had the chance to meet up for the first time with my best friend that I met online years ago, which was amazing. She gave me my Kagurabachi mug that I asked her to buy for me from the M+ store, so that's being used immediately!

Beautiful homage to Matt.

Fuck. I don't even know what to say. Matt inspired me back in his scanlation days with his unending kindness and support. Needed an obscure 80s manga that had a tiny print run? Matt would help you find it and scan it for you, all because he loved the medium so much. I'll miss you, Matt.

Cat bit me at 3am so i turned her into a wojak

Boarded my flight to the US. Aim to eat so many flamin hot cheetos when there that I'll be the first person in medical history to get cancer from red 40 in 3 weeks.

On 2 September 1973 J.R.R. #Tolkien died aged 81. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings is the best-selling book of the 20th Century, and is joined by seminal works The Hobbit and The Silmarillion. He may have died 52 years ago but his influence and legacy lives on in us all. Namárië. #BookSky

You love to see it.

Look what they did to Notepad. Shut the fuck up. This is Notepad. You are not welcome here. Oh yeah "Let me use Copilot for Notepad". "I'm going to sign into my account for Notepad". What the fuck are you talking about. It's Notepad.

'Meer dan 80 procent van doden in Gaza is burger'

Fucking weak sauce statement. Oopsie woopsie we accidentally used the plagiarism machine 😢 Fuck off.

I am unbelievably excited to say that @lettererbrendo.bsky.social and I are lettering the English release of Billy Bat! Both of us!

Dream team right here!!!

👏👏👏👏

We interviewed Hidemi Shiraki, the Editor-in-Chief of Young Magazine USA, to discuss the upcoming special edition of the magazine, differences between Japanese and overseas audiences, and more!

Didn’t want to believe this was true. It’s true.

Man, you just had to be there when this album came out.
