Miss Mess is a curmudgeon, but at 18 and having lost all but one tooth over the years, she's kinda earned the right to be.

For our cat, her schedule is once a month/30 days. It can vary a bit, depending on your cat's size or progression, but that's a conversation to have with your vet when the need arises.
And it doesn't have a human equivalent that I know of, but I haven't needed to research that yet, thankfully.

Our elderly floof has been on Solensia for about three years now, and it's been life-changing for her. Without it, I'm certain we'd have had to say goodbye long ago. Absolutely worth the money every time.

Having search is a major improvement, thank you!

I haven't seen a large number of outright Nazi Linux users, but a decent stripe of alt-right adjacent Libertarians are, and some of them have been loud voices in the open source community (e.g. ESR).

That may be a miscut - all five of mine are the same size. I had to return a volume of a different series a few years ago that was cut too narrow, and got a correctly-sized version after the exchange.

Looks pretty henka to me. He was shifting to his left before his first step touched down.

I'd love to see Ross and Brennan together for sure, though I'm not sure who would play best as the third. Maybe Izzy, Vic, or Siobhan?

My copy is out for delivery, and I'm just waiting for the "10 stops away" notification so I can start following it... on a map.

I completely agree. Both the number of entries and the number of contests has made policing a "no awards" rule effectively impossible.

Aegisub can handle a lot of sub formats, just one of them (a popular, well-formatted one) is Advanced SubStation. ASS is a revision of the format used by an earlier widely-used program, SubStation Alpha, which used .ssa for its original, more basic sub format.

Too many good things have been stuck DVD-only. My hope for a "someday, somebody" release is the Ah! My Goddess movie. The TV series (and I think the original OVA?) are on BD, but the movie and later manga pack-in OVAs have only gotten DVD releases.

Has Crest/Banner even gotten a BD release in Japan? I don't recall seeing one. I think Kaleido Star got one, but I'd have to search to be sure.

Nice! Two quick questions:
Does this also apply for the US edition?
If one has already preordered, will the lower price be applied, or is this only for orders made today?

Rayearth is one of my favorite series of all time, but I haven't thought about Metal Fighter Miku in forever. That's a blast from the past.

That's awesome, and I think a lot of textbooks could be done like this - students would have an easy way to take notes on things they need to, right next to the part of the book they need to clarify. I wonder if print-on-demand could make it work (with left- or -right-handed editions, too!).

I get more of a Kenichi Sonoda BGC/Gall Force vibe, personally. Fanattik has a numbered print of it listed, but no artist info in the description.
It may have been a work-for-hire thing where the credit has been lost in the years since. Wouldn't be the first (or last) time, sadly.

Five minutes into the episode, I was already thinking "I can't wait to see the making-of video for this." And it did not disappoint. Beautifully done, and I eagerly await Sam's revenge in S8 (or later, if he also plays the long game).
