I'm going to put aside the weird feeling of seeing a saint born after I was, but since we know the guy was big on halo 2 there are now people who in 2004-2005 got fragged by a saint on xbox live
Pope Leo XIV canonized Carlo Acutis, a 15-year-old who died in 2006, as the Catholic Church’s first millennial saint on Sunday.

First Monday I’ve had to work at the day job in a few weeks between returning from NYC and the holiday. Thankfully I don’t mind my client schedule on Mondays!

Late night scrolling led me to learn about the “Glomar Response”, which is the legal term for stating you “neither confirm nor deny”. Us old school anime convention vets used to hear quite a few Glomar Responses - IYKYK. 😉

More cleaning on the long weekend. Lots of clothes to ditch for a good reason as I’m carrying a bit less weight these days. Trying to do more with less!

On a low spend this month - essentials only. You damn well know this means that stuff I’ve been waiting for will all become available this month (affordable Gundam CG boosters, I’m looking at you).

Using a large display book for my prints since I have no wall space was such a great idea - thanks @greyishwight.bsky.social and @bluewyst.bsky.social for the thought! Now I can flip through at any time!

A former anime piracy site turned streaming service decided to kill the ability for public libraries to legally show their content to teenagers who almost always turn into consumers and didn’t even dignify professionals who’d relied on it for years any respectful response.

Nothing like trying to find the 2nd steelbook of Gundam: WFM without spending 300 bucks. Missed grabbing it when I had the chance and definitely paying for it now.

Crunchyroll started as a piracy website that would steal the work of fansub groups and lock it behind paywalls, which caused Fansub groups to literally encode messages during the "Brought to you in part by these sponsors" segments, warning viewers that if you paid for the subs, you got scammed

A few years ago, Crunchyroll closed RightStuf completely, replacing it with their own Crunchyroll online store. However, in doing so, they failed to renew the deal RightStuf had with Sunrise to distribute Gundam on Blu-Ray, meaning that now basically all Gundam series are out of print

After driving home from Anime Boston, I promptly took a nap. In the words of Roger Murtaugh, maybe I am getting too old for this shit.

My brother is the real MVP - got me an in-person Switch 2 preorder at GameStop because I had to work and he got out early.

Sometimes being an adult is realizing sleep is more valuable than the new electronic thingy that you wouldn’t find time to play at launch anyway.
