After digesting so much comedy that punches down on people's weight, it's a refreshing change of pace when a story like Plus-sized Misadventures in Love! comes to flip the script

So uh...not sure if CR has actually gone back to using Aegisubs overnight, but they HAVE at least gone back to their old subtitle font, so looks like bullying works

Teenagerisms: "That man is not handsome enough to survive." (Referring to Kevin Bacon)

"A kid drowned or something, idk, his mom is probably the one killing everybody."

Halloween Movie Nights #7: Friday the 13th (1980).

While not differing much from Halloween, Friday the 13th is a fun conversation with Psycho by way of a gory slasher. Betsy Palmer is acting with her whole face and is the best part.

Also, Makoto Yukimura said trans rights.
io9: Your portrayal of Indigenous and transgender characters—like the Lnu tribe and Cordelia—stands out in a media landscape where such representation is still rare outside of series like Golden Kamuy, Skip and Loafer, and Paradise Kiss, where they’re often mishandled. What impact do you hope these characters have on expanding the narrative terrain? How do you see your storytelling challenging the ethnocentric lens that dominates much of mainstream media when it comes to that representation? Yukimura: I did have written characters in [Vinland Saga] from a marginalized ethnic group [and] who are LGBTQ featured here. I actually wanted to portray a character with a disability in the story, too. However, because of the setting, I really couldn’t find the right place to incorporate such a character into the story. One thing I really don’t understand, though, is why do people attack such folks? Is it because they’re different? Why do they just focus on bad things about these groups and generalize them? I truly don’t understand why people do such things. I plainly feel sad when it comes to the way people treat each other. To me, it’s quite normal for people to have uniqueness. It’s almost needless to say that we all individually have a uniqueness that might be considered different than what is the majority. For example, I grew up in an era where higher education was considered to be the most important thing in society in Japan. You almost had no paths in life outside of that structure. I actually do live outside of that structure, and I’m living perfectly fine. I really want to say that uniqueness is okay. I don’t understand why people are making those judgments to say, “This is okay, but this is not okay.” I haven’t really thought about what this type of storytelling or character would have an impact on society at all. I’m just writing, drawing, and portraying society as I see it and what I think is normal from my eyes in the manga. If people don’t agree with that version of what I think is a normal society, then oh well. (Laughs) That’s too bad. Those people don’t have to read my manga.

David thought he was acting out of mercy, so it's always felt off to me that he was punished for it. I'm sure part of it is demanding we don't give into despair, but I think he had proven himself enough through the movie's events.

Halloween Movie Nights #6.5 The Mist (2007).
Oh man, I was REALLY excited to show this one to Erik to see how he'd handle the ending. I told him nothing. HE IS SO MAD.

I've always liked the risk this movie took with the ending. Now, I'm having a hard time with its point.

"To become mature is to become kind" is actually beautiful.

Makoto Yukimura was worried that Vinland Saga's farming arc and "I have no enemies" moment was a gamble that readers wouldn't like. I told him about the J. Cole meme from the Kendrick Lamar and Drake rap beef. This is how he reacted.
o9: To give more color on that, Thorfinn’s famous declaration that he has “no enemies” has become a meme in the west—used affectionately, especially during the high-profile rap beef between Kendrick Lamar and Drake, through J.Cole reaction images in social media posts, and as a shorthand catchphrase in anime circles. How does it feel to see such a pivotal moment in your story take root in popular culture in this way? Yukimura: (Laughs) First of all, I feel very happy that it has turned into such a phenomenon—my work turning into a meme—because it means that my intention to make what I’m trying to say in the story into a short, compact sentence was successful. People won’t remember if it was a really long sentence or something very complicated. If “I have no enemies” has become a meme and people remember it, then maybe people will understand what I’m really trying to say through the story, which is that humans are immature, but we can mature. To become mature is to become kind. This is the foundation of what I’m trying to say, but it really has to be much shorter for people to remember. But it does give me hope that people remember these short phrases as memes. Then, one day, it will click in their mind what I was trying to really say in the first place.

The more all of you keep reposting my industry tweets, the more likely I am to get a courtesy email about it.

Please I'm so tired.

I’m not keen on jumping ship just yet but if this place goes belly up I’m not going back to the mechahitler app. I’ll just go live behind the walls of the internet and play a pipe organ all day like the phantom of the opera.
