Oh man, it's been like what, 5 years? since the last time someone said this. Time sure flew by while in sealed-room simulator Namek.

Elf in hybrid armor powered by 3 different methods--external frame + servos, muscle cables & direct magical enhancement of the wearer's limbs. Elven mental architecture offers an advantage in controlling the sub-arm.

I have never liked Woody Allen, and now there's one more reason I never will.

Turkey!'s shaping up quite well, with the latest episode dealing with the girls' 21st century morality running head-first into the Sengoku era.

As usual, Mai with her terminal case of foot in mouth disease leading the charge upon hearing of Sumomo's arranged marriage.

Watching the latest episode of Clevatess, and I like how the wizards aren't skimping out on the armor.

Should be noted that 'magic' in this setting is a relatively new & novel thing.

Older-style AsGear, uses external frame + servos instead of muscle cables. Simpler & cheaper to build, with well-understood operating principles. However is bulkier, less efficient & redundant, more vulnerable to damage.

Should be easy to guess who she's based on.

"Shoot that guy."

Experimental AsGear in the form of a bodysuit with muscle cables integrated into the weave. Requires extensive custom-fitting as, unlike armor, the wearer's own body has to function as rigid support & anchor points for the musculature.

Just read the latest chapter of Tower Dungeon which concerns Aridellia's circumstances, and it has this fairy-tale quality to it leaning towards the darker Northern European sort.

The paneling also has a very storybook feeling, which adds to the tone.

Couple of designs for fantasy 'AsGear' powered armor utilizing advanced, 'ribbon-type' muscle cable with a much flatter profile. Left is a fully-integrated harness, right is a composite harness assembled (scavenged) from various sources by the local raubritter from podunksville.

Just finished reading Benford's Galactic Center series and, from Great Sky River onwards, it can't be overstated how foundational it was to Nihei's Blame!

As a Roman Catholic, I was hoping for Cardinal Tagle to become the new pope, but this is quite the ringing endorsement for Cardinal Prevost.

God bless the newly-elected Pope Leo XIV. May he continue to bring, like his predecessor, new life & positive relevance to Mother Church.

Well, this is quite the escalation.

R.I.P. Pope Francis

As a Roman Catholic, I didn't quite agree with some of what he said of late but he was, nonetheless, a deft hand & positive influence in guiding Mother Church forward into the future.

More importantly, to him, the poor & defenseless actually mattered.

From Top Secret! to Top Gun 2, he always gave it his all.

Last ep. of Ubel Blatt. It was a faithful, almost 1:1 adaptation of the manga (minus the saucier parts) such that viewers were left confused at scenes which only made sense with the prologue--the lengthy prologue that was reduced into a series of montages in the OP.

S2 with bigger budget when.

My friend, finally with a clean bill of health after a month of treatment.

Also in need of a bath.

After 1 1/2 months, the current US administration is an astounding SSSS-tier.

-Short-sighted
-Self-centered
-Spiteful
-and just plain Stupid

Quite glad that Ukraine has trustworthy friends & allies that continue to step up, like France.

Rest in peace, Gene Hackman.

As a kid, the role I first knew him for was, of course, Superman's nemesis Lex Luthor. And a charmingly funny, con-man of a Luthor at that.
