  • Honestly wonder if it was due to that interview with Jon Stewart where an EFF representative was basically told that if you’re not on Twitter (X) you’re not relevant to the discussion, effectively. While I don’t agree with that, I think that the EFF not leading by example means it’s hard to argue that other people should leave to bluseky or mastodon.





  • Really love the manga so I was excited for the show.

    I’m a bit concerned that the pacing of the TV show is a bit slow and would have preferred that the Mother/Daughter interaction was handled a little bit more abridged compared to the manga. Comic pacing can generally be a bit more punctual despite covering a lot more due to pacing being “flexible” based on reader engagement, if that makes sense.

    Overall though a very faithful adaptation. But I do worry that some people might bounce off the show if it doesn’t “get to the point” fast enough, I’ve seen people seemingly thinking this will be a magical girl slice of life show and it definitely isn’t that…

    I always go mint chocolate chip when I’m getting my own ice cream.

    It’s really rare for me to opt into getting a tub of it, as often I’m getting that for multiple guests or whatever, and forcing mint chocolate chip on everyone in that circumstance feels like forcing Hawaiian pizza on others at a party. So when I’m getting a scoop in store, it’s like “now’s my chance!”

    I couldn’t believe how many people bought that Harry Potter game that came out like 2 years ago. Not only was the game shitty looking ubishlock, but also we’ve known for years just how f***ed up jk rowling is as a person.

    Having said that, as I child I remember protesting against the school trying to encourage me to buy Harry Potter at the school book faire. I get now that they were only trying to encourage me to read by suggesting a popular book, but I really didn’t like the cult-like obsession around this book even as a kid, so I’ve had bad vibes around the book series since the very-late 90s lol.










  • Lovely. Looks great!

    but the color selection in my pack was a bit odd.

    Yeah, it’s a bit like this sometimes. One good thing about packs though is that you know that the colors mix well together. The only thing to watch out for are packs that are designed specifically for scene painting as they tend to veer a little too much into the greens (which makes sense, as accuracy in that area for painting is really important.)
