oh hell no, I'm not getting into any discussions about music genres in 2025. especially with people who clearly should know better, I'm simply not giving them the engagement and deleting my comments instead.

ways VW apparently f'd up the nana collab collection:
- they put things in the stores before announcing it, so some of it was already sold out by the time they posted
- offered the really in-demand rare pieces in the "wrong" color/cheaper make to diehard fans AND made them v limited again

fuck I am so proud and relieved right now.

This excellent article covers the history of Crunchyroll subs, the strengths and weaknesses of different subtitle formats, executive disdain, and the importance of giving people who care about their work time and support enough to do a good job. Give it a read, I promise you’ll learn something!

A ton of research and effort went into this one. This is the article to read to get to the bottom of Crunchyroll's subtitle changes!

Crunchyroll is destroying its subtitles for no good reason | Daiz.moe

hey hey mouse, real quick: if there's a SW movie (or live action series) about a character you could just *not* make, I have a few ideas for you. just give the original authors the green light for books instead and we're all good.
