Always liked the Zaku's a bit more than the Gundams! They have a lot more personality!

I was telling one of my kids that it was physically impossible for an ad to play between songs on any of the records I own, and they asked "and you only have to pay for it once?" and you could see how strange that seemed. You cannot overstate how many basic rules of media consumption have changed.

I'd be a little remiss (and outside of contract) if I didn't also mention the new This is Fine store with newer shirts and stuff galore over at www.thisisfine.shop
The Topatoco store remains as-is, vintage stock of shirts and the plushie you know.

Oof! This was that really sinister episode about the rectums in the condom factory! 😂
Crunchyroll having bad AI captions for Gundam despite actual legitimate captions existing is so wild. They don’t have to use these!! They’re putting in more effort to make their product worse!!
Here's the ones from my Gundam watch thread (which is #PhoenixWatches0079 if you want context for them)

I have always loved the Locust! Very cool light mech!
Mech Advent 2025 Day 14: Locust. This is a semi-canon scheme designed by a customer, based on "throwback" USAF colors. I did nine 'Mechs in this pattern and have a bunch of supporting units on my bench. It's very cool and fun. #BattleTech #MechAdvent2025
