@bear_necessities I do like the bizarre lol

@Ominous I tried to get into Frieren a few times but somehow it just didn’t click for me.

My take on Frieren is ‘cute, but so predictable I’m getting bored’
I do not fault people for liking it! I don’t necessarily DISLIKE it, but I can also only watch a couple episodes at a time.

(Tho most of the time if I feel like watching Frieren I end up watching Delicious in Dungeon instead.)

@Gashlycrumb Take your expenditure for parts, props, and other sundries, jack up the price by 60% for labour costs, and that’s your daily.

If we’re going by daily, don’t forget the retainer.

@junipersky Best of luck and my greatest wishes for your family.

@Wizz Thank you for your payment.

At this time, you currently owe:

Alucard awake pictures. Alucard cute pictures.

(On the serious, ❤ )

RL is eating me alive. I sustained what I am no longer in denial about it being a career ending injury several months ago, still doing my best to soldier through my remaining settled contract hours all while jumping into the abyss of despair that is job searching right now (and starting over in roles that I dont have 30 years of experience in). Ugh.

Sad to say there’s another one of these currently running for another member of the MU* community. If you’ve been on Ares games over the last few years, there’s a chance you know Cameron. And hey, if you won’t do it for him, do it for the cats. 🐈

GoFundMe: Help keep Cameron, his kids, and his cats housed!

@catzilla Who gave you permission to access my MU* TS logs?

I didn’t even realize Crunchyroll did an Anime Awards, but it also dawns on me that any Award ‘show’ presented by an anime company is probably going to be heavily biased.

Is there an Awards show for Anime independent of the companies that produce it somewhere else?

Solo Leveling definitely doesn’t stack up to a lot of those other shows ‘nominated’, but I won’t deny that I enjoyed watching it. Personally, out of those options, I enjoyed Dan Da Dan and Kaiju No. 8 the most. Can’t comment on Apothecary Diaries because it’s honestly not my thing, and I’m not done with Frieren yet, so I’m still deciding on that one.

cool cool cool this isn’t problematic at all

honestly, the only reason I didn’t love it is because there was enough material there for at least one more season, if not two, without any real concern about filler. every “ONE YEAR LATER” smash cut made me wince and groan.

… how the killer will handle this one in the remake of Se7en, which will have to be called Ei8ht.

Obvs the exact same, just Empathy is the Goop-filled Gwen so her death is a two-fer.

@Arkandel said in Book Recs:

The Blacktongue Thief by Christopher Buehlman was, in my opinion, excellent.

The Daughter’s War by Buehlman came out this summer and is a prequel to The Blacktongue Thief. Very different than the Blacktongue Thief, but very good.

The Bright Sword by Lev Grossman. Another take on the Arthorian legend. If you enjoyed the Magicians you’ll probably like this
