Still remember the good times of renting the original from either Hollywood Video or Blockbuster. I forget which one offered game rentals now, but that was one of many games that had an impact on me growing up.

Speaking of manga, would @darkhorse.com consider publishing lesser known manga creators in a new anthology like the Dark Horse Presents or Manga Blast series?

I feel like most "big" manga titles will always be accounted for by other publishers, but how about more obscure works? Heard of MINT?

For the diehard manga and anime heads, do any of you by chance have more information about this mini documentary from Nippon Television Network about Osamu Tezuka (ๆ‰‹ๅกšๆฒป่™ซ), with Tezuka played by Japanese rakugo comedian Shota Shunputei (ๆ˜ฅ้ขจไบญ ๆ˜‡ๅคช)?

The video "ๆ‰‹ๅกšๆฒป่™ซใ€€ๆ˜ฅ้ขจไบญๆ˜‡ๅคชใŒๆผ”ใ˜ใ‚‹" was taken down on Youtube.

This is very much like how many Japanese will say "I don't read manga, but I do read [insert 5 manga series or strips here]."

Comics culture has a lot of work ahead to educate these new generations of readers that it's all part of the language and world of comics. ๐Ÿ—๐Ÿ‘ทโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ‘ทโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿงฐ๐Ÿ› ๐Ÿช›๐Ÿ“š๐ŸŽจ

A lot of two-faced politicians sway easily, even against their constituents.

Republicans messed up and will get what they deserve, but select Dems definitely disappointed people as well.

This needs to be more than just going "blue." We need to finally step forward in history and progress.

There are some websites online that do a good job at digging up info on who has been bought out by PACs and such, even with Dems.

That way, you can determine if a candidate may be more of a corporate Dem than a "get things done" Dem.

And even if Dems win, we need them to stay focused and work.

Hey @mihousedems.bsky.social , would all Michigan Democratic representatives, at all levels of government, refuse to take any money from DTE moving forward?

Don't want to point fingers, but recent events over the last year suggest DTE is controlling Michigan, not the people.

If you haven't cracked open Starting Point, that's worth a read for hot takes by Miyazaki.

I remember being a kid and thinking it was unrealistic that humans were so easily swayed.

Being an adult is realizing that, no, people really are this gullible and all Megatron has to do is promise to lower the price of eggs or whatever and they'll follow him to the end of the universe.

I think many of us have been on the same page as JJ here.

It's not the tech, it's the people who build, own, sell, and profit from it. Just like with weapons for war.

We want to regulate the businesses more so than anything. Predatory business practices need non-financial consequences!

I will be pushing for a moratorium on the construction of data centers that are powering the unregulated sprint to develop & deploy AI.

The moratorium will give democracy a chance to catch up, and ensure that the benefits of technology work for all of us, not just the 1%.

Agreed. Hopefully most of the film isn't in poorly lit rooms, but I'm going to trust that's just what they decided to go with for this sneak peek.

Earlier this year, around the time of the Woodward Dream Cruise, I saw a black NSX.

With all the Corvettes, Porches, Lambos, and such that over saturate the roads in Michigan, it was like seeing a mythical and majestic creature when the NSX drove by.

Shame they don't make them like they used to.

But let's not forget the waste, fraud and abuse by way of the Ai data centers in Michigan.

DTE, Consumers Energy, and even the Governor are trying to push these facilities on people without paying attention to the overwhelming push back by communities.

All of these things happening in 2025? Hmm..

And NO DATA CENTERS!

Tech companies behind the recent Ai "boom", and eventually bubble popping, should be held accountable for their crimes and illegal activities. OpenAi especially!

Regulations are needed, with penalties that can't be factored into an annual corporate budget.
