He/Him. I'm a critic and podcaster for sites like @AnimeNewsNetwork. Godzilla Stan. World's #1 Lightning Returns apologist.
also I'm just tired of people using "slop" for anything that's not AI, and is just shorthand for "thing I don't like"
Maddy Myers 🏳️🌈@midimyers.com · 24h agook how about friendscore instead of friendslop. friendslop sounds derogatory and so it’s therefore not a good term. be part of the solution people
[Review] While Beast of Reincarnation doesn't quite reach the heights of its truly brilliant inspirations, it still accomplishes more than enough to prove itself as a genuinely excellent game in its own right.
Beast of Reincarnation Game Review

While it's a little rough around the edges, and it owes more than a fair share of influence to NieR, I think Game Freak has made a really excellent foray into the character-action RPG space with "Beast of Reincarnation." You should definitely give it a chance!

Welp, now I have to scrounge up some dough for a commission and become PNGTuber, because this is the coolest thing ever
Nick (Breadbotnik)@breadbotnik.bsky.social · 2d agoStop-mo PNGtuber for @foxander.bsky.social in the style of Fantastic Mr. Fox. Foxander messaged me about the idea and it seemed so cool! He sent me drawings and screenshots for the idea I got to work, it took a bit, but I streamed most of the process and am happy with the result! #3dart #vtuber

[Review] The best comparison that my broken brain can conjure up is this: Watching The Elusive Samurai is basically the modern anime equivalent of catching an episode of The Muppet Show back in its heyday.

You all have no fucking clue how much my heart was racing when I temporarily thought that this somehow was referring to beloved YouTube food historian Max Miller.
Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com · 3d agoMax Miller released audio recordings of conversations he has with his ex wife. In one of them, she accuses him of clandestinely recording their conversations. “I have never recorded our conversations” he says, while recording their conversation. This is domestic violence. Ask me how I know.
Well hot damn, Marvel remembered how to make an actual movie, with a real script and a whole-ass story and everything.
[Review] Can anyone think of a more wholesome way to cap off an episode than by having a terrified bungee-jumping streamer squirt out a cat-piss rainbow to color the sky with those vibrant ammonia hues?

NOAH: Oh Lord, please, can you send us some kind of sign from heaven? A promise that you won't ever lay waste to the world as a punishment for mankind's sinful ways? GOD: best I can do is some anime cat-girl piss NOAH: Wait, wha- GOD: get soaked, bitches, that smell is never coming out
[Review] While our heroine has been forced into pretty dire circumstances, this will all clearly be worthwhile if it means getting a canon confirmation of Alicia's adorable fursona.

Satanic panics are common as mud. Almost everything that has been wildly popular has been accused of being in league with the Devil. Jazz. The Beatles. Elvis. It is just the way the Christian right works. They are a vocal minority and of little importance. And yes, "most of the US" means that.
Literally what fandom discourse has turned into I fear.
