Going to start posting more here, but hey! I'm Cheems, I make mecha/Gundam videos on YouTube every now and then. Analyzing Gundam specifically has been really fun, so I hope I can reach people and help them find new ways to love this amazing franchise!

Since it's the perfect time of year for it, I definitely recommend reading COWA by Akira Toriyama if you want some very light spooks!

It's only 1 volume long and is pretty cute, you an even find it all on the Shonen Jump app if you use that!🎃🦇

Had an absolutely amazing time meeting Yoshikazu Yasuhiko at MadeInAsia this weekend! 🩷
And that Miles and I could bring out our Ramba Ral & Hamon cosplays for it created some truly lifelong memories 💕

Thank you so much to Vega Livres for this amazing opportunity! #gundam

It doesn't matter how despicable a person is, mocking their innate physical appearance is always wrong.

Not because it's cruel to them, but because it perpetuates the harmful idea that innate physical appearance has anything to do with one's character / beliefs / actions.

Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

I don't care if you fear demonetization; if you say "Unalived" or "pdf file" I'm not taking you seriously. If you're too chickenshit to use real words you're too chickenshit to take the subject matter seriously and need to find something else to talk about.

I don't care if Skybound issue 25 showed Elita-1's wrong, but I still support her and I think she's right to call Optimus their enemy now.

Listen, I think the scene in the motel IS the true climax of the season, and I'm glad it happened. I loved it.

But a huge, integral plot thread is unresolved. One that also completely uproots the central character in the show's final moments, now to be addressed ELSEWHERE.

THAT'S BAD STORYTELLING.

I find it crazy how it took only one issue with Kirkman present in the writing room for TF Skybound for me to lose almost all interest, that’s honestly commendable. (I’m bummed the artist changed, but Dan Mora’s usually great, so I’m sure he’ll do fine)

as if I didn’t need to tamper my Skybound Transformers expectations further, Kirkman is basically a lib Z*onist 🤡
www.kcrw.com/shows/the-bu...

rough transcript of his both-siding ass response to a Hollywood actress getting cancelled for *checks notes* being openly anti-gen0cide!

Hollywood is an industry that was founded by Jewish immigrants… and that I think, especially for some of the older guard, that have been around and have seen how the anti-semitism has played out over the decades — that is what is so troubling by the writer’s guild’s lack of a response to Maha Dakhil here. And then on the other side, people have complicated feelings towards Israel and some of the things that it has done, so I don’t think that this is an easy “you’re with us or you’re not” type situation.

On Wednesday evening, CAA‘s star-whisperer Maha Dakhil reposted a statement from an account labeled Free Palestine, which weighed in on Israel’s response to the Oct. 7 terror attack executed by Islamic extremist group Hamas. The post read, “You’re currently learning who supports genocide,” to which Dakhil added her own caption: “That’s the line for me.” She then posted a second photo captioned, “What’s more heartbreaking than witnessing genocide? Witnessing the denial that genocide is happening.” She later deleted both posts from her account.

There is an affability in sharing and speaking with others instead of letting your feelings dictate your hobbies totally. I find that niche subsets of the internet are rife with covert narcissistic behavior for no other reason than that many of these folks are legitimately mentally toddlers.
