[Review] I understand why Tamaki has been a divisive character, so I just want to say that I was totally right about her, and you doubters owe both of us an apology.

Pride month reminder: Japanese stories about girls in love have been around longer than you have. ^_^ Buy my book!

Daring to Speak its Name: Goodbye, My Rose Garden and the queer historical romance Utilizing the narrative devices of early feminist and WLW literature, this yuri series is a shining example of nuanced, happy historical queer fiction. www.animefeminist.com/daring-to-sp...

My 2yo’s current fixations, ranked: 1. Maisy 2. Hilda 3. Godzilla films prior to 1976 4. The ‘95 BBC animated adaptation of The Magic Flute 5. Clifford the Big Red Dog

this is way cooler than those terrible waifu cars.

This was also my secret soapbox to yell about cool old shoujo series shhh ....and to tell people to watch Bravern and Fairy Ranmaru

We were watching Arcane a few months ago with my nephew, who is still not yet even two, around, thinking he wouldn't pay it any attention But then there was an explosion on the screen and he spontaneously looked over and shouted "DIE, DIE, BOOM!" - a phrase that none of us had taught him

I was panicked that my 7-year-old might freak out during the face melting scene in Indiana Jones but she said "I guess he shouldn't have opened that" as seriously as possible and I've been crying laughing for 10 minutes

Please, Mothra.

1. LLM-generated code tries to run code from online software packages. Which is normal but 2. The packages don’t exist. Which would normally cause an error but 3. Nefarious people have made malware under the package names that LLMs make up most often. So 4. Now the LLM code points to malware.
