they could even leave out the catastrophic design failures that doomed the entire product line, as a treat

there's gotta be a better way to hold that sword

having looked into it, i'm definitely under the threshold that i'd need to file at the moment anyways but that just keeps things nice and neat and on the books so there's no chance of any nasty surprises later!

it's recognized, i actually have 2 legal passports (tho there are some quirks specific to being a US citizen like i can only enter the country on my US one) it's mutually beneficial for me & my ex to still joint file so we just do that (we're not in any other relationships so it's legally ok)

short version: i was born Irish, moved to LA in the 2010s to get married, lived there 10 yrs or so, was fun didn't pan out in the long term (covid being a huge factor there), amicably divorced, moved back home where i am currently! so there's your tmi for the day 🫑
comment in response to post
this may be different for born citizens idk (i was naturalized)
comment in response to post
yeah that was the twist to my earning citizenship i didnt see coming! you technically can revoke your citizenship but it takes a lot of time and effort and costs a fortune (at least $2500 just to file the papers alone last i checked)

amazing news, thanks for the update! genuinely one of the best shows ever

ooh this is so cool!

at least with the random solicitation there's a non-zero chance the dude genuinely might not know any better i suppose

i am absolutely enough of a mark to buy that mouse and keyboard separately if they do decide to sell those though πŸ₯΄
comment in response to post
it's very pretty but that is a staggering amount of money for what's still just an emulator in an unusually nice box. also worth noting they currently have "no plans" for an english-language option in the OS according to their FAQ

i ended up jumping on it immediately, in hindsight it was maybe a little rash of me but i know once these boutique labels sell out that tends to be pretty much it (though there's currently plenty floating around mercari at a not-terrible markup) this was actually my first new record πŸ˜Άβ€πŸŒ«οΈ

cant see anything here either at the moment

Carter USM does balance it back out a bit at least

happy to discover regardless of postage method the items arrived in the same excellent condition (fromjapan are outstanding packers it has to be said), though i'm not sure i'd wanna wait that long again any time soon πŸ˜…

tryna decide how to approach this one, a decent chunk of the content is serialised manga and stories (most famously for manga fans of a certain age this is where Dragon Half was serialized), do i cut that stuff or just keep it complete? πŸ€”

and a few extra bonus scans 🫑

if you're in the EU prepare to be 😊 bc this was reissued by a german label and for once it's actually cheaper over here! www.soundmetaphors.com/release/3406...

aw thanks! yeah this is one of my absolute fave yΕ«yu shoots, i love how it came out!
comment in response to post
they really nailed the launch on this one. it's sold out for the moment, but on launch day i could've picked one up from anywhere around here that sells that kind of thing, they all had both sets in stock despite obvious high demand. that's some serious planning compared to the usual mess.

either way's fine with me but i do like the tweeting, makes it feel like more of an event 🀭

short version: he accidentally backed up hate speech imagery (as part of a whatsapp group he was investigating) to his main google drive. went as well as you'd expect
comment in response to post
i guess we're not really the target audience, i'm a lot less interested in broad nostalgia than i am in interesting obscurities and stuff i'm not already familiar with. feels like we already did all that stuff back in the 2000s!

just let me have the weirdos fiddling around in their spare rooms and you can keep the rest frankly

the only time i've seen this guy's content was when he reviewed The Spectrum and it was probably the tipping point where i realised that corner of retro youtube had lost me entirely

and as a commenter already noted it basically still exists as the virtually identically-cursed Frosty Jack's
