So I put my no show ankle socks on, which was the style at the time

Some Millennials in my timeline are insecure because Gen Zs are telling them their ankle socks age them. I can't stress enough that you don't need to care about what a bunch of 20-somethings think about your clothes, mainly bc you don't have to care about what ANYONE thinks about your clothes.

For many, "felon" describes bad people, so of course it can't apply to the rich white man they want as POTUS. Conservatives criminalize people based on identity rather than actions. It's why certain people are "illegal aliens" and why they're literally making trans people existing against the law.

I don’t even know where to begin with this.

#HappyJuly4th to those in the U.S.A. from all of us at Tenchiforum! #tenchimuyo #天地無用

Beautiful artwork! Yes, July 3rd is kind of a special day for many TM! fans in the US. On this day, way back when, Toonami viewers got a chance to experience it for the first time thanks to @clarknova.bsky.social and a few other crazy, pioneering individuals.

Happy Toonamiversary! For July 3rd this year, Tenchiforum has a new welcome banner! This fantastic piece showcasing each era of Tenchi characters was done by the amazing @phildragash.bsky.social ! Go check him out. #tenchimuyo #天地無用

A convicted felon is applying for the only job in the world that lets him do as many crimes as he wants.

The US failed a very, very simple test in 2016: Don't elect an unfit moron who will absolutely abuse power to the highest office in the land. Even still, he could've been stopped many times. But Trump showed us all how dilapidated our legal and political institutions at the highest level truly are.

a thing to remember, in all of this horror, is that these are not the actions of a political party that is confident it represents the will of the people, and who is currently out of power and enslaved to a deeply flawed avatar. the struggle is not over and they have not won

I don't like how some oldtaku insist on being elitist or even exclusionary toward younger cohorts discovering anime that came out before their time. Like, zoomers getting into old anime and genuinely loving it is SO cool! You're gonna' pour cold water on that? For what? Social media clout? Come on.

It is #weebwednesday once again! You know the drill, quote-skeet with your weeb shit but no racist stuff, nothing intentionally inflammatory, hit me!

Ads for LLM AI are like, 'Look! It can summarize notes from that business meeting!' and it hit me how top-down this push is: 'Why isn't outsourcing THINKING seen as a detriment?' we wonder. Because for these CEOs, THINKING daily doesn't matter. 90% of their jobs literally don't require sentience.

The wildest part of this to me isn't the shoes vs no shoes thing, it's the idea that guests should be dictating these things to the hosts! When you visit people, it's their place, their rules! I thought everyone already knew this. Don't like it? Cool, thanks for not coming to dinner! 👋

Can the dishes just be done and the floor vacuumed and the trash taken out without me having to do it? 😭 Trying to sell me AI as if it can just magically do things, well why do they want it to take writing, drawing, and cooking away from us? Why not all the actual chores??? 💢

there's so much work happening behind the scenes to keep my bones, muscles and blood on the inside of me- it's really a high stress operation, tho I'm proud to say I'm nearing a 50% lifetime success rate but please it's serious that you don't stand so close to me you're in the splash zone thank you

This should be front-and-center in every “hey why are so many VCs backing Trump this time” article. Joe Biden has spent 3.5 years rebuilding administrative capacity. We now have regulators actually saying “hey knock it off that’s illegal.” The VCs would much prefer autocracy to accountability.

The strongest Kengan Ashura episode and the weakest Baki episode is a hilariously accurate description of this special.

[Review] This is the strongest Kengan Ashura episode and one of the weakest Baki episodes.

Baki Hanma vs. Kengan Ashura Anime Special Reviewwww.animenewsnetwork.com

It's fascinating how accurate this is. Hence, largely cishet dudes favoring canons, a 'natural' order, proper hierarchies, & established traditions who also use these for power/position and oppose any intrusions in 'their' spaces being politically right-wing/reactionary ain't no coincidence!

It's a huge part of why we're where we are now. The (especially older) men feel their natural ownership and default position in media is slipping but don't have the same creative capacity to deal with it maturely, so they lash out at the threat. The woke mob "taking" from them and changing tradition

If we Millennials can only do one thing right as we age, please, PLEASE let it be killing 'the customer is always right' bullshit forever and ever. Banish it to the deepest pit.
