i was gonna watch it sometime this season but then the mangaka turned out to be a trumper conspiracist somehow

right wing japan is wild

Unless he's obtrusively pushing his politics in the work itself, what's the issue? Are you incapable of enjoying something unless you agree with all of the creator's personal and/or political views? Because that's kind of a shitty way to go through life.

i don't want to financially support anyone who thinks january 6th was a false flag orchestrated by antifa by giving them views or discussion when they use their position of renown to spread that misinformation

tax evasion's fine so i'll still read log horizon, supporting violent terrorists is a bit more serious than "personal and/or political views"

hell i'm still fine with Gate despite it being very clear pro-JSDF/Japanese imperial superiority propaganda

Considering that you likely pirate that shit, it's not like you're supporting them anyway. Otherwise it comes back to the same issue: Are you going to fuck yourself to maybe possibly fuck somebody else the tiniest of bits? Because that's just stupid. Not to mention that this is the weirdest of places to draw the line.

lolwut? No matter how many times I follow the loop on that circular logic, I can't find the endpoint because it's completely contrary to what you're trying to claim. If the guy is disavowing and denouncing the capitol riot as the work of antifa (by the way, "false flag" and antifa don't work together anyway, unless the argument is that antifa is working for the government), then he's doing the exact opposite of supporting the rioters who stormed the capitol. It'd be one thing if he believed the rioters were in the right and was taking peoples' money to pay for their legal defense fund, but all you're claiming is that he's "supporting" the riot by criticizing the riot (albeit by advancing a conspiracy theory, but criticizing it all the same), which makes no fucking sense.

Man, Haachama/Haato #coexist is like a real life anime arc. She has been good content lately on her approach to 1M. Just watched her english lesson stream where she taught japanese viewers the wrong english (for example, hajimemashite = nice to meet you, what color are your panties?) and then cleverly scammed a bunch of people out of 30 bucks before ignoring a skype call from akai haato and then running an add for her english speaking supplement which is clearly just black scorpions. I really wonder what the hell kind of person she is off camera.

Kind of like how you maintain you only ever have one or two accounts then we see another fifty? Or how you don't try to hide your identity behind new accounts when your new sig specifically claims that it's not you so I thought it was another Duke or Ziggy spoof?

Otherwise the only thing you've "maintained" is your gimmick of accusing people of having gimmicks and your gimmick where you accuse people of doing shit you do. And your gimmick of trying to start shit with me wherever and whenever you can.

Adam_Savage posted...

Kind of like you had immediately try and argue against my criticism? Which is doubly silly because you're blaming me for him bringing that shit up, and then you're complaining about somebody complaining about bringing politics in this topic which is exactly what you're doing. Fuck!

And it's silly and hypocritical because you do the exact same thing when you see somebody randomly and awkwardly bringing politics into something, except you only do it when you disagree whereas I tend to criticize it across the board. Otherwise instead of criticizing me, you'd be criticizing him.

This has been a very calm weekend. Late Friday night I got tilted in PoE, and ended up working until pretty late, but reworked a bit of my code that I was unhappy with (and it was a pretty calm experience). Today leveled my KDF Recruit to 65 in STO and got my now 54 characters set up again to grind currency. Wrapped it all up with Horimiya and Non Non Biyori Nonstop. I might catch up with Yuru Camp S2 tonight or tomorrow.

I want to watch a movie tomorrow night now that I'm not playing PoE (trying to take a break - the game was stressing me out). not sure what to watch, I was thinking of maybe The Wind Rises, or maybe a movie I haven't seen before.

It's only fun if you're good at it.
Otherwise I'd compare it to something like Dark Souls. If you hit a wall, you hit it like a fucking truck. This league has some very hard content that there's no way I can clear. I don't know how others can do it. I just do not have the damage, and the amount of grinding required for me to brute force it, I don't think I could physically stomach.

Just watched the latest ep of horimiya (episode 5) and this show is kinda weird. Like, it introduces problems way over dramatically, but then after the characters worry way more than makes any sense for a few minutes, it just kinda resolves reasonably. I actually like it, it's just strange to see.

Latest chapters of Hero? I Quit That a Long Time Ago kinda undermine a good chunk of the rest of this arc >_> This whole arc has pretty much been garbo, though.

Oh, and Witchcraft Works is still cliffhanger-y. I should have waited to continue until I was sure the current arc was finished, but I was thrown off by the side-chapter.

He says while posting on his umpteenth account. You've had what, five or six different accounts going in the last hour? And I'm rejecting ever teaching you the word projecting. Your vocabulary may be small, but man is it ever consistent. Not only do you use it in nearly every post, but you use it multiple times per post. I'm debating teaching you a new word or two, but I suspect the situation would just repeat itself with that new word.

I've been watching so much hololive lately. It's kinda crazy how much there is because even with basically unlimited free time I still can't watch it all. Although I have also been watching some nijisanji (mostly clips of kanae and ange or collab events) and independants (mainly yuuka bear and kana kamiko) as well.

I'm gonna end up fluent in japanese at this rate.

As far as JRPGs go, I beat Legend of Legacy (3DS) as Garnet. 43 hours, spread across nine months because I put the game down more than once due to frustration. The game is a genuine Sa Ga tribute ... in that it has poor balance, mechanics that are never explained, and difficulty that waffles between easy enough to be boring and randomly snuffing your entire party in a single round. I liked the ending, but getting there was a pain in the ass. ... If I revisit it in the future, it will be as a different character with New Game + benefits.

A few series I had followed years ago have apparently completed their run. The only problem is I'm not sure where I left off, since the site I had been reading them on in the past got shut down >_>

One of them had turned to such crap later on when they had all of this future timeline shit and revealed that the antagonists had been coming from the future all along, which I guess was partly foreshadowed by an antagonist who had the power to send people to the past. Granted, the bigger problem was the stupidity and implausibility surrounding the main antagonist.

Haachama has been popping off so hard lately that she flew to 1M subs too fast before the stream she was gonna do for it was ready. The first vtuber whose content you can classify as psychological horror. The revivehaato thing was pretty effectively creepy.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z86cMpo4SQE

She's been keeping it up consistently for a few weeks now swapping between akai haato and haachama. She's even been swapping her channel name as one takes over and she keeps up the act during entire long streams. It's honestly really cool.

Pretty sure it's all going to finale in 5 hours, she has a stream titled byebye set to go live then and she just hit 1M subs.

The card game is actually very fun, I used to play TCGO during the XY and ORAS formats, but stopped because an online card game can't be a substitute for r real life social interactions (also why I originally quit Yugioh).
The recent popularity is because of the pandemic and people having expendable income to do stupid things with (like invest in pieces of cardboard). Most of those pieces of cardboard don't actually have any value, and it's just another iteration of artificial scarcity that comes up every once in a while due to people coveting relics of their childhood.
I say that I'd like to play TCG in real life, but I don't think I'd really play TCG in real life. My local card shop went away years after I stopped going to it, and it's not coming back, and card games are really expensive anyways.

Now if we had a new TCG or board game resurgence post-COVID. That would be pretty cool. It's not going to happen.
