I see that even Ted Danson is doing TV ads for mobile games now. We need to go back to the days when name actors were too stuck-up to be in commercials.

5 4-McNuggets
11 Fries
6 Soft Drinks
11 Apple Pies
6 Chocolate Chip Cookies
4 McFlurries

It's election day and the only thing on my ballot is mayor and city council. Fourteen people are running for six positions. There's less than 10,000 voters here, but less than 3,000 will bother to vote, even though a local election probably has a greater direct impact on you than a federal election.

The past few years I've had some pretty good candy to give out on Halloween, but this year my supply was pretty small and lackluster. One trick-or-treater remembered my house from last year, so now I'm feeling bad that I disappointed that kid. I was supposed to feel good after giving out candy!

I thought I'd try to watch all of the shows that have aired on Toonami, but it turns out they aired way more than I though they did and the block got way more kiddie when they moved to Saturday nights in the mid-2000s.

I finally started watching the extras on the Eden of the East discs and came upon this interview with Kenji Kamiyama and Chica Umino. They had to place a stuffed animal directly in front of the camera so that you can't see Umino.

I've got three episode of Giant Gorg to watch and suddenly it's disappeared from Tubi and RetroCrush. I hate when that happens!

Making my way through City Hunter 2, getting a bit bored by the repetitive soundtrack, when a new song is finally introduced! Strangely, it kind of sounds like a ripoff of "The Way It Is."

I've also started re-watching The X-Files (I only saw bits and pieces of it when it first aired). The first episode features Scully in her underwear; even most anime series wait until the third or fourth episode.

I started re-watching Batman: The Animated Series. I've only gotten through the first episode, On Leather Wings, and I'm sure they put some extra pizazz into that one, but this show really puts most animated series to shame. The writing, acting, music, animation, everything is just so top notch.

Tried to start watching Hajime no Ippo (in Japanese) on @retrocrush-tv.bsky.social... but the video has obviously been cropped on both the top and bottom. Where is the quality control on that site?

I wonder why Funimation feel it was necessary to emphasize that their release of Takagi-san, of all things, was uncut.

It seemed like an odd way to start a series, but apparently the first episode of Blue Seed on RetroCrush is actually the last episode. They continue to be the absolute worst anime streaming site.

Going to be interesting to see what tonight's USA vs. Sweden hockey game looks like now that it's completely meaningless.

Sure, it has some coarse language, but it's still crazy to see a TV-MA rating attached to National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.
