Counting just DVDs and up – not VHS or digital purchases – I have 493 movies and TV shows on physical home video.

I'm not saying you should be where I'm at. But I am arguing you should consider getting closer.

mediablastersinc:
Sorry for any confusion but let’s make it clear, we are releasing GARO in the future and we are actually starting with Kiba, Taiga, Red Requiem, Wailing Dragon and Under the Moon.
Actually just starting to figure out the configuration, extras and the like so no clue yet.

Such an easy thing to flex about when you have nothing to be ashamed of. 🍻

We don’t use AI for subtitles. Every line is carefully timed and translated by real people (who cry during finales and debate Best Girls, just like you).

If I could get a boost for what few items I’ve got on eBay I’d appreciate it, I simply haven’t been able to get to stuff to put up other things.

I have been more physically and socially active in the last three years than I think I was in almost my entire 20s.

Absolutely.

I’ve started something of a career, made lifelong friends, and have had a handful of once-in-a-lifetime opportunities appear before me.

Social media is a crapshoot, but every once in a while, it presents a chance to make real connections with other people.
