Boomerangs, sling stones, arrows, the occasional anti-tank round.... maybe a SLAPP lawsuit or two. 🙃 And that's not even getting into an undiagnosed congenital heart condition (corrected in 2021). The Seventh Doctor once said "You can judge a man by the quantity of his enemies." I only...

I turned 50 a couple of days ago. This is happy news, as I can point to multiple times in my life that I did not think I would make it this far.

Or at least, it's true for the posters' social class and location, not necessarily the country as a whole. As one of the posters said, 1.4 billion people. That's a very broad brush.

In which Miley, Minmiko and Japan Explorer go to a purification ceremony to improve their fortunes. We could use something like that on this side of the Pacific, I think.

Amid all that has gone on the past few years, there have been a few missed milestones in our fandom. Hasbro has been a bit lax at anniversaries for Beast Wars, for example -- though we did get Kingdom and the Rise of the Beasts movie. RiD's 20th was a victim of pandemics and rights tangles...

Wouldn't it be the Gazpacho, if it gets that far? All dark humour aside, I suppose the fact that I am (for the moment) beyond the reach of all this has given me some comfort, even if it limits what I can actually do. Besides reminding my American acquaintances (most of whom are toughing it out)...

Taking a break from all of our -- uh-oh.

So, the next arc of the anime adaptation of Chainsaw Man was announced as a theatrical release. (Possibly inspired by how Demon Slayer: Mugen Train revived the Japanese cinema revenues. I'm still largely in the "Aware that the characters exist, owing to various cosplay skits" category, but even...

The comic's hard-right turn started in 2019 (apparently a side effect of 2011's radical-feminist reboot, connected by a trans-woman-phobia pipeline), but the canards and caricatures appear to have taken off more recently, per TV Tropes' capsule summary.

From the subreddit devoted to tracking the Sinfest webcomic's descent, via imgur and Patheos (where I found the image): Considering the logarithmic leap at the end of such a year of ... content, how long before the creator ends up making headlines?

To answer a question with a question... How long have you interacted with online fandom?

How's 2025 so far? Perhaps a delivery for our host will be of help to start the year?

While a pretty egregious example of Later Western Lore From A Different TF Storyline overriding the original Japanese writing (which is cool and Japanese, or so we said in the Before Times), I feel this overlooks the best descriptor Sixshot ever had.... ...I refer, of course, to "Ninja...

I opened it up a few times and had real people in it, but it's unlikely from their post contents that they were living in anything like reality (though they did have a consensus of sorts). And the one who was talking about real things then jumped off a slippery slope, so.... I've been only...

So... a border-case Quadwal/Iocus stream, then. ;)

Charles III could dissolve Parliament without being first asked to do so by the PM, certainly. He could do it exactly once, at which point the UK is in uncharted constitutional waters.
