Hello, new Bluesky faces and followers!
If you did not know me from elsewhere, I'm Mike! This feed will not be coherent, as I'll be jumping between topics: movies, television, video games, tokusatsu, anime/manga/webtoons, and comics. Apologies in advance.
The blog should be up... eventually.

I just found out that the creator of Love Advice from the Great Duke of Hell, unfins, started their second series, Vampire Family.
Already, you can tell they still got it. A masterpiece of cringe romantic comedy. I recommend it as highly as I did Love Advice.

I made it. Another year done.
I admit, I came into the year a bit burned out. Kept my head down, focused on surviving.
2026, I'll get back to some additional projects.
I hope your year was okay. If it wasn't, I hope next year is better. Salut!

The problem with playing so many games throughout the year is you end up forgetting like half of them when Game of the Year rolls around.
But look! I remembered some of the games I played! You should play them too because they're good and my opinions are correct!
And yes, I rec an #Atelier game!

But "video essay" is already taken! Maybe "video talkie"? ""Visual scrum"?
(Perhaps we can try "search action" or "command RPG".)
