It's pretty cold here at the moment, so here's snowman Mr. Saturn I made back in 2009.

Another cake I was given for a past birthday, this time from way back in 2009! A Pigmask from Mother 3.

I just read Factory Summers by Guy Delisle and it was a really good graphic novel! A very different, down to earth sort of feel compared to his Pyongyang book, but the in-depth, melancholy, but amusing look into such mundane-seeming subject matter was genuinely engrossing.

I just read Konosuba volume 6 (light novel) and it's great! It's an interesting change of pace from the previous volumes, without a main bad guy present, Iris was a fun addition to the cast and it's just as funny as the previous volumes!

My life would be improved if there was a way to stop Disney+ from instantly minimising the Bob's Burgers credits. There's always stuff to watch during them!

I just read volume 10 of the Zelda: Twilight Princess manga by Akira Himekawa and it's definitely a must for anyone who's read the previous 9 volumes! A particularly dramatic volume with some surprisingly graphic panels for a Zelda manga, this one.

Sumo in London was a surprising thing to come across on TV, but it was an enjoyable watch!

Spy Kids 2 was on TV earlier. I feel like these thumb men need explanation.

I just read Sealand, by Dylan Taylor-Lehman and it's a great read! The history of a micronation declared on an abandoned naval fort was bound to be a unique one, but it's even odder and more interesting than you'd expect. A great book about a very unique country!
