Another new @udonentertainment.bsky.social / @mangasplaining.bsky.social book from Jitsugyo no Nihonsha announced at San Diego Comic-Con is "Rondo," a mix of retro chic illustration and visual storytelling that depicts an imaginary fashion magazine, by Hiromi Matsuo. Coming in 2027

Someone once told me that it's "classist" to advocate for people to have indoor cats because you need to buy them lots of expensive toys. Marcel has been playing with the discarded stem of a fresh green bean for 20 minutes. 🤷‍♀️

I once saw Douglas Adams live on stage for a book tour. His final rant at the end of the event was that www was the worst abbreviation because it takes so much longer to say "double you double you double you" than to say "world wide web."

Wholesome Week is about to start because I get the Discounty update on Switch, the Pokopia update, AND a new season of Ted Lasso, all within the same 48 hour time period

US has sent out an email requesting ideas on "new creative and unconventional ways" to defeat Iran. “Hey chat, CENTCOM here 🫡🇺🇸 We’re low-key out of ideas 💀 Drop your most unhinged ways to defeat Iran or get them to negotiate.👇Best one gets a 3 month Rip Its and Zyns drop."

I hate how Amazon completely f*cked order emails. I ordered 3 rolls of 3d printing filament just now and it calls it my "order of hardware items". -_-

Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers Fruit Snacks (1991-1992): Assorted fruit-flavored gummy snacks, shaped like characters from the animated series, such as Chip, Dale, Monterey Jack, and Gadget. Part of a fleet of fruit snacks based on Disney Afternoon shows

It’s hard to explain but tv was better when you couldn’t watch the show you wanted whenever you wanted to watch it and most of the shows were worse and the TVs were worse and the entire experience was worse, that’s when it was better

People using instagram and twitter etc still: Just how bad does it need to be for you to give those up? The primary reason I see people unwilling to leave either one is economical (small businesses convinced they will no longer get enough business if they leave those apps)

Got stuck in a crazy torrential downpour but thankfully the storm passed and we are waiting for Muse! Also, we got to see The Temper Trap perform Sweet Disposition, one of my favorite songs!

Husband is taking some time off work, so I thought we would go see the new Spider-man in the middle of the day during the week, and have our pick of seats. Apparently that only applies if you got to a showing before 10am, because everything after that was already mostly sold out.

The Odyssey was fantastic, and it felt truly epic. I loved seeing Tom Holland in a different role than usual, and while Elliot Page’s screen time was limited, his performance was unforgettable and moving.
