If you know someone who is trans or non-binary, make sure to give them as much love and support as possible during these rough times.

And if you don't, there's always other ways to show solidarity. Donate to charity, commission a trans artist, anything that isn't just spewing out empty platitudes.
The amiibo bug is biting me again.

I don't know why it's hitting me now of all times, after being amiibo free for over a decade, but it is.

Why am I like this?

A bit weird to post a normal manga haul on Christmas Day, but fuck it. Better late than never.

More backlog titles like usual (some of which I could stand to pick up the pace with), meaning there’s nothing really new to say.

So uh, happy Holidays everyone! And try not to get frostbite out there.

This, right here, is why you shouldn't give these companies any benefit of doubt when it comes to AI.

You give them an inch, and they'll take a mile. You let them get away with a few minor lines of dialogue being AI generated, and they'll put out whatever the fuck this shit is.
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

Another manga haul? Another manga haul.

The sale bug bit me again, and I ended up walking away with a decent amount of volumes (and Gintama) this go around.

And that was before I received the second One Piece box set as an early gift.

Welp, that monkey paw had to strike at some point I guess.

I rise from my grave once more to bring you my monthly manga haul.

The series that started this whole collection, MHA, comes to it's end, and these BOGO manga sales continue to be the bane of my fucking existence.

And I'm still just hanging in there, like always.

As bad as things can be at times, it's the little things in life that make you smile. And this is ABSOLUTELY one of those cases.

If you think a game about going after the KKK would be controversial due to the current political climate, it's a good sign you should make a game about going after the KKK.
SCOOP: Last year, Ubisoft cancelled an Assassin's Creed game set during Reconstruction. Was to feature a Black Assassin who, among other things, fought the rise of the Klan

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

You know, just once, I'd like for a social media platform to be run by people who actually give a fuck about trans/queer folks and minorites, and aren't actively protecting the pieces of shit who want us dead.

So hey, it's the obligatory monthly manga haul!

Depression's still keeping me down big time, but I've been slowly getting things back on track.

Finally got my hands on that goddamn laptop, so maybe now I can actually start doing art on a regular basis again.

like this is the most irresponsible level of hysteria i’ve ever seen. most of these people are either paid by the republican party, or are high level advisors and allies. this is insane

This man will not be fired for calling for the murder of American citizens, yet multiple journalists/reporters/teachers lost their job for accurately reporting things Charlie Kirk actually said and stood for.

But it’s the “violent left” that’s the problem

It's not lost on me in the midst of this eulogizing and memorializing a monster that my home state, Florida, has made it a crime to commemorate or remember the victims of the Pulse massacre.

In America, only some deaths are considered grievable. The rest of us are just "collateral damage."

You are under no obligation to mourn the death of people who would’ve celebrated yours.

Manga haul time.

I could not have picked a worse possible time to make a poor financial decision, but it is what it is.

A whole shitload of backlog pickups this time around. Nothing much else to say other than that.

So uh, I hope you all are doing alright. :)

Gotta love how the Dems will whine about not having enough support from queer and trans folks, and then in the same breath, put their support behind this piece of shit.

You know, I'm not out here asking for a perfect candidate. I'm just asking for someone who isn't another goddamn bigot.
Gavin Newsom suggesting that 25 years of age is too young to transition and agreeing to right-wing entryism of concern trolling about trans people in sports. This is your opposition leader?

I will never vote for Gavin Newsom anyone who thinks trans people are actual humans will follow suit.

Manga haul time. I may be sick as a dog, but I can still show you all the goods, dammit.

Went in expecting this to be a rather dry month, and I ended up walking away with the final Fairy Tail box set, and a decent bit of backlog titles. Funny how things turn out sometimes.

As of this month, I've been playing Final Fantasy XIV for a whole year.

Never really thought I'd find myself ever getting this engrossed with an MMORPG, and yet here we are. All the way up to post-Shadowbringers.

TL;DR The game slaps, and you ought to play it for yourself.

It's been another rough month for me, but I just wanted to say I hope everyone had as good of a Pride Month as you possibly could've.

Thing's are looking rather bleak right now, but it will get better. You've just gotta keep hoping and fighting for it.

Alright, I'm doing a little better mentally, so I figured I'd go ahead and crank out this month's manga haul. It's split pretty evenly between pre-orders and backlog titles this go around, so that's neat.

It's gonna be real bittersweet for me when the final MHA volume comes out, that's for sure.
