Not to give them free publicity, but it is absolutely insane to me that cygames is reimbursing everyone's travel expenses + cancellation fees for the cancelled umamusume concert.
Happy None Pizza, Left Beef Day to all who celebrate. The infamous order came on this day in 2007.
Candidates need to run ads declaring “The US Government Won’t Let You See Your Precious Umas”

Obsessed with Damascus goats lately. They look like they were created by H. R. Giger. They both looks and sound stupid as hell. An utter catastrophe of an animal. I love them.

I'm so busy translating Magical Explorer that I totally forgot to start watching the anime adaptation that started this season.
Ah yes, a joke focused around incorrectly shortening a hiragana phrase into a romaji abbreviation, why thank you I would like to die.
Man, I sure love when I make translation choices based on little to no context only to have them invalidated and proven incorrect *thirteen* volumes down the line.
My mind is in a very weird place because my father-in-law is coming to spend five days with us to meet his grandsons for the first time--but also me, since after almost ten years of marriage, I've still never met the guy. Very bizarre situation.
