Digimon Beatbreak really feels like a Pokemon Game storyline run through a Digiimon filter.

This is a good thing.

This week's Gozyuger really smacks of "okay, a bunch of this isn't working. Wrap up the plotlines so we can change course!"

One nice thing about my Ghostbusters get up is with all the gear a mask does not feel out of place at all.

Again reminded of the demons in Frieren who simply don't understand some human concepts but understand the reactions they elicit.

"Do you know what a Mother is?"
"It's a magical word that keeps humans from killing me."

As someone who (sort of) does the not-fascist version of this for a career, something I've realized is that a lot of these guys are genuine descendants of Andrew Breitbart and think moral/political allegory is just a rhetorical trick you can just do a parts-swap on and make it work just as well.

Tron being in Kingdom Hearts II was a highlight of the game, for me.

Also, TRON has to have the worst luck out of any title character. He was a supporting character in the first movie, barely an entity in the second one, and not in the third one at all. I think he had more screentime in Kingdom Hearts than he did in the actual movies.

I think what's impressive about TRON is that, visually, it's still so much more interesting than any of it's sequels. It's crazy that they tried update this digital world by making it as 'realistically rendered' as possible. It's a complete misunderstanding of the original's charm.

Not to mention a chunk of the people who ARE Tron Fans (like myself) were very put off by the casting. 🙃

I'm perplexed at watching pundits in the trades struggling to explain Tron Ares' disappointing opening.

Was it covid? Do people just not like science fiction? etc. etc.

The main reason is pretty obvious: Tron isn't a popular franchise. Nobody's interested in nostalgia for a failed 1980s project.

I had to have a less complicated surgery for a similar problem a few years ago, and I'm keenly familiar with the pain it causes. Donate if you can, share if you cannot.

Hi guys! After what happened, it's evident that my mom's surgery can't wait, so I'm asking for donations to help to gather the money for it

She almost lost consciousness last night and the insurance keeps refusing to help us

Every help counts 🙏💕

Gohan and Videl in their wedding:
Gohan- Are you happy in your wedding Videl?
Videl- Of course! But when you said you wanted something from your childhood for a wedding photo as well...
Everyone included them, are being chased by a dinosaur-
Videl- ... I didn't know it would be something like this!
Gohan- It's just so nostalgic!

The cynic in me looks at Milly Thompson's Stargaze design and just pictures the animation team going "No giant coat! We can't have people thinking Milly doesn't have a rocking body and massive breasts!"

The only benefit of comic books becoming such a niche interest that you have to go to a specialty store to buy them is I have made a ton of friends via the comic book store

Some brief nonsense at the dayjob yesterday has gotten me all wound up because my various neurodivergences mean my body stays "on alert" a hell of a lot longer than it probably needs to.

Cat Lingerie Felicia.
This year for cosplay month (aka Spooky Month), it was voted on patreon that I do 4 characters in one costume and the costume that won was the meme cat lingerie set.

So to start of I went with cat girl in cat lingerie.

A bunch of tech nerds obsessed with their intricate machinery accidentally made a social media platform full of queers and leftists that now has 40 million users and now they're mad that people think they should run it like a social media platform with 40 million users

It is incredibly funny how the Bluesky team thinks that everyone is here because of their cool new coding system and framework to build your own siloed communities meanwhile 99% of their user base has no clue about any of that shit and is only here because it is like Twitter before Elon bought it
