It genuinely annoys me when people who only really know Lolita via Vkei want to talk about the fashion.

Gonna be real, I haven’t seen any millennials over the age of 30 reacting this way and I think the small contingent still in their late 20s will get over it soon.
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.

A New Jersey lawmaker “is crafting legislation that would prohibit landlords from using RentPage and other similar rent-setting software. The services collect data on rents from participating landlords, then use their algorithms to suggest rates…”
NJ lawmaker looks to ban algorithms blamed for jacking up your rentgothamist.com Critics say using software like RealPage's service amounts to illegal price-fixing.

Every pundit fretting over Biden’s age should mention that he could be a walking corpse and electing him would still be the only way to protect abortion rights.

So many people see this and get a moment of amusement and surprise but never think more about it: This is all of ancient history and archaeology: All of the fatty nooks and crannies lost to the decay of time until we take what remains and reimagine it as a leaner, purpose-built, brutal existence.

Hello, it is I, the maker of the tok and recovering Enfant Terrible of the Texas con scene. Vic is an asshole. AM is an asshole. Go to Anime Fest, San Japan, or Onicon instead.
HELLO IT IS I, THE ED COSPLAYER WHO SHOULD HAVE VOMITED ON VIC'S SHOES. Don't go to Anime Matsuri. As @mllejacquesnoel.bsky.social explains, they're run by assholes, which is why they think they can invite assholes. Texas has so many cons!! Choose one without creeps!! www.tiktok.com/t/ZTNLocEhw/

*every anime fan makes a sound that's only audible to small animals in perfect unison as we point to the list of shows that were nuked from streaming over the past few years*
Why you shouldn't throw out those DVDs and Blu-Rayswww.popsci.com Don't count on streaming.

Are there vkei fans on Bluesky? People complain about the TikTok kids but Twitter is currently driving me up the wall. Why are you complaining about them wearing too ~few~ clothes??

I keep searching the Japanese Internet for the word 腐人/"fujin," & I'm increasingly convinced it was either made up for the English language fandom or ported over from Chinese. I think if you tried using it in Japanese, you might not be understood. But there's 貴腐人/"kifujin," which is gender neutral.

THIS IS WHY WE GET LOOKS. Well also this
...Does the fact that I'm familiar with all the musicians and bands mentioned in "Let's Go Karaoke" mean that I have the same taste in music as a mid-level member of the yakuza...?

I keep getting ID’d at the supermarket for booze and like. One thing that people who know me now don’t realize is that I have been perceived as “20s” since like 2002. Like the minute I was off the leash at cons people figured I was probs just a baby faced college kid.

Bringing this over here because I would like to be more active— 16 childhood shoujosei titles. I limited this to things I was obsessed with prior to age 14.

AEW fired an announcer for being a Qanon weirdo so if you’re keeping track of “industries that have higher standards for ethical conduct and truth telling than the American Presidency” you now have to add “Professional Wrestling”

Real shit you can do to support International Women’s Day: • donate to an abortion access fund in a state with limited or no access • donate your local female progressive candidate • donate to DV shelters • NOT hop into a woman’s replies w/excuses why you can’t do the above or any supportive work

THIS. "Boycotting" an election doesn't send the message that you're unhappy, because it doesn't lose them money like it would for a business. You're not the nation's customer. Refusing to vote sends the message that you're fine with whatever result you get, that other people can decide for you.
And unfortunately some well-meaning people fall for it, thinking not voting would work the same way as boycotting a business.

My vague and unpopular opinion today is that I think it’s totally valid to celebrate Toriyama’s contributions to shounen manga and to mourn his passing as a fan. I am skeptical of people who make big statements about his contributions to manga as a whole. Shounen? Yeah totally.

PSA: fanfic puts authors in an awkward position legally, so they pretty much have to avoid ever seeing or acknowledging it. This is a universal thing and is never personal.
