I'd honestly say that you're probably taking your life in your hands if you mess with old reddit. That's the version the most powered of power users are on, and they're a motivated and creative bunch who can bootstrap a rebellion.
It’s also planning big changes for developers and old Reddit. www.theverge.com/tech/975398/...
"it looks like you're using an adblocker to visit our site." yep! ha ha! it rocks!
That NY Magazine article about the supposed taboo against admitting you're struggling is such a classic case of a feature writer taking a thing their upper middle class friend group does and turning it into a general trend.
For two white people from eastern Mass who are only a year apart, my husband and I had extremely different upbringings. I grew up in a majority-minority city in a family that was always yelling at each other, and he lived in the suburbs in an old money family where no one was allowed to get mad.
Scenes from Awajima seems to be missing from the list. Did you mean to do that?

If you can give, find a donation place soon. I can't give again until September but I would if I could! If you have never given, I encourage you to check into it. People will die with a critically low blood supply.
Who is going to find time in their week this week to donate blood? The American Red Cross declared only its second ever national blood crisis in 145 years. There’s only a day’s worth of O+!
We've had a dip in support for the last few months which is totally understandable since finances are looking tight for a lot of folks. But if you are feeling up for supporting an independent media site that focuses on manga, now's a good time to sign up for a yearly or monthly membership.

I've been wondering when we were going to actually get this. It was an excellent one-shot.
Kami Nishio's "Still You" one-shot from the Young Magazine US issue will start its serialization on August 24.
I was fascinated by how unlikable every main character was, but especially Koichi. At every possible opportunity, he chooses to slam his dick in the door. It's impossible to imagine him happy or successful.
[Review] There’s a difference between “being real” with your audience and calling a rant your motivational speech.
Oh nice. I can finally replace the Big O Blu-ray I lent to my BIL years ago and never saw again.
Watch out for falling skyscrapers? Why? Because it's SHOWTIME! The Big O!
Hello and welcome to anime content tailor-made specifically for me.
There is no age limit on loving cute things 💕 Uncle’s Obsession with Cute Things premieres October 2026 on Crunchyroll.
I have nothing substantial to say for yaoi day. Gay’s Anatomy.
"A boycott makes demands. This made none, set no conditions, named no grievance, and offered the Recording Academy no way to win them back. You negotiate with an institution whose judgment you still need. The one whose judgment you have outgrown, you simply inform." Damn. 🫳 | | 🎤
What Grammys lost when BTS walked away | Aju Press
For five years, BTS wanted a Grammy, and the wanting was never hidden. The group submitted its music every cycle. Its members flew to Las Vegas and delivered performances that outclassed the ceremony ...

I haven't played a fighting game since Marvel vs Capcom on the Dreamcast, but I am loving this series about girls playing Street Fighter 6 in secret at a boarding school. The love for the subject is overflowing, and the girls themselves are a delight.
[Review] These girls would fit in very well in the Melty Blood scene, with how good they’ve gotten at making tournaments happen even in the unlikeliest places.

I get it, and it's nothing the artists or writers have done wrong, but I just hate seeing long, apologetic hiatus announcements. Ma'am, that is simply not my business. Take whatever time you need for whatever reason you need to. I am not your boss. Please never apologize for not being healthy.
Twitter is playing the classics lately. Last time I visited, they were arguing about whether or not changing your name at marriage is a free choice, and today there seems to be some kind of beef between childfree women and parents.
In my experience, ADHD exists so there are people to work in hospitals.
“While traits of ADHD undeniably exist – the question is why they exist. Is ADHD actually a neurodevelopmental disorder? Do people with ADHD have differently wired brains? Or does our world – with…processed food, and regimented education – serve as the catalyst for certain…patterns of behaviour?”
People need to stop coming to reddit to ask for anime they can watch in the background. Why am I going to spend the time to recommend an anime you've just told me you're going to ignore?

I'm 100% behind Nguyen purely because the other two frontrunners smell like consultants and podcast bros. I'll take the experienced immigrant woman who knows what she's doing.
Legislative experience and lived experience are better qualifiers for office than self-funding and privileged family connections. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/07/28/o...
I don't really do cons or anything, but the time a bunch of guys half my age tagged me on reddit to tell me Bean Counter was getting an anime felt pretty good.
OK, we've had the talk about bullying and the discourse that's been bubbling today. Let's do something positive: What as your coolest, most favorite experience as an anime fan? Doesn't have to be anything special, just has to be something that you remember fondly.
