Miyazaki survived the bombing of Utsunomiya as a child. His family escaped in a car, but left a neighbor and her daughter behind to save themselves. Miyazaki regrets this, and said this has stayed with him and shaped his film making. He hopes his audience will learn the courage he lacked in 1945.

The literal reading of this statement is Pam Bondi is planning extrajudicial executions of random protesters.

"We see here the pinnacle of human physicality on display in a entertainment ritual enjoyed by what many would call the common person. It is a strange mix of opera and martial arts performed by actors who double as body builders. While perplexing, it is an act of impressive skill and dedication."

Cute!

a true story from 2011

A reminder to myself to block and move on. Don’t engage. Just block and move on. I am mentally more healthy that way.

If it’s making so much money, why should it get a sales tax exemption?

OPE! Sorry about that, then. For some reason I thought I'd seen you post ride watches before. Well, when you get there, just remember that Zi-Oh's first episode came right after the end of Build and you'll get what I mean.

Okay, but can we talk about how heart-wrenching it was to hear a corrupted villain say “Best match?” In the first episode of Zi-Oh?

Stream is complete! We completed the iterative world-building section today! Thank you to @gloriasunshine.bsky.social for the raid. I was going to raid @lijourt.bsky.social, but it failed for some reason, but you should all go check her out anyway!

We're live with a TTRPG Work Stream!

It’s all connected. Follow the money‼️

Once again I was woken up early, but we're going to work on more ProtoDrive tables despite that. We got two of the four world-building tables done last time, so let's see if we can round that out today!

Join me for a co-working stream at 12pm EDT over at:

We either need to hit our goal three months in a row, or get $7000 in a single month to have any chance at BEGINNING to catch up. ko-fi.com/farronox/goa... farronox.carrd.co #MutualAid #Helpsky 💸💕 #KoFi #Throne

Ah. Hm. I can deal with spiders in a written format I think.

Spent my first morning in my library in a while. There're a bunch of detective pulp novels I've been meaning to get to, but life has just been too busy lately, you know? What are some other books I should check out?

I absolutely hate that we're back at this part of the social media cycle.

Half of the hardcore goths I know listen almost exclusively to jpop, so you do you is all I'm saying.

Stream is complete! As predicted, we completed The Lamplighters League today, then played a bit of 40k Mechanicus. That means I'll be adding a new game to the rotation soon, and that game will be Shadowrun: Dragonfall!

We passed the love on to @thorngobo.bsky.social, who's playing Outer Wilds!

Going live now with The Lamplighters League!

This is one of the reasons why so many artists were raising the alarm about ordering specialty art supplies that we use from overseas. Probably wont be able to do it again for a good long while
