we made a critical error allowing reactionaries to make-up concepts like “biological sex” and frame them as non-ideological when it’s the exact opposite: people who undergo HRT *are literally changing their biological sex.* this is not some philosophical distinction, it is actual biological reality.

Chris and a very special guest see what's behind OceanVeil's diaphanous drapes.

Am I crazy, or does the new Mario Kart Direct use the Switch 1 sound effect with the Switch 2 animation? I could have sworn the Switch 2 sound effect had more of a woodblock thing going on.

I think we would all be served by occasionally repeating to ourselves that anime is a big tent and people like the medium for different reasons so maybe instead of telling other people how they should be spending their time you should just focus on how you're spending yours ok cool thank you🙏

Hololive is the new Phoenix University that is somehow getting people accredited just enough to get into the masters program at San Francisco State.

BLUESKY POWER USER TIP: this website isn’t full of humorless tone-scolds if you block them on sight

the absolutely limitless bog of transphobic vitriol that is jk rowling means that we cannot fuck with harry potter on any level and JOURNALISTS ESPECIALLY should be interrogating every single person associated with the new show about where her money goes. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

It's not easy every day but I know this in my heart

Trans exclusionary "feminism" is fascism and its proponents are nazis. Fix your hearts or fucking die.

Autistic sluts who are good at spreadsheets RISE UP!!! We are being erased and this will not stand!

I'm sorry, my autistic ass can't hear what he's saying over all the money I'm making and paying back to the government AND the pussy and dick I've drowned in for years. What's he saying?

The writing is on the wall for the corpo model, I think indie VTubing is going to become more popular as we see a rise in VTubers rejecting the idol model and instead doing things like reaction/news content, crass personalities, lewdtubing, things harder for a idol corpo to sell

Not just saying this because it might go up, but $450 is a totally fine price tag for the Switch 2. Suped up hardware (that everyone wanted) means suped up prices. Yes, Nintendo brands themselves as a toy company, but $450 is a competitive entry cost to play some of the best work in the medium.

Said something akin to this before, but with fascism on the rise, more should be done to remind right-wing weebs that the anime industry was originally built on the backs of anti-war commies

Considering the degree to which zoomers grew up online I feel like this divide really illustrates how social media was more of a progressive force in society up until it was forcibly weaponized into a fascist radicalization pipeline a few years later

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

my friends and i had a heated Super Mario bracket to determine which is the best mainline Super Mario platformer, the seeds were completely randomized, our results were: 1. Super Mario World 2. Super Mario Odyssey 3. Super Mario Galaxy 4. Super Mario 3D World

I have really good news to announce to everyone. Because of our reporting and many readers contacting Planned Parenthood of Arizona, the organization will NOT over comply with Trump, and is restarting its trans adult care. Good work everyone.

Soooooo... is now a good time to mention that Uma Musume's success correlates with a rise in the uptake in betting on horse races in Japan?

Thrilled to say I've been working on editing the subtitles for the TV version of GQuuuuuuX. My first time working with NYAV Post. An honor to be trusted to work on this. Can't believe my name appears in the credits of the same half-hour video that has Char's face in it.

Gacha games are genuinely the fucking devil and we need to hold nothing but absolute hatred for them. Please play more single player games.

I can't think of a bigger nail to slam into your career's coffin than signing on with the biggest, loudest, richest transphobe alive who spends unimaginable amounts of her wealth fighting against trans folks' civil rights. Fuck each and every one of these assholes, they're absolutely dead to me.

I am so glad that the epidemic of cis women shoving dildos in their panties pretending to be trans hasn't reached this site

Is it a coincidence that, in a season where there are less isekai and RomCom anime than usual, that the average of each is better than I’ve come to expect? Who can say! Either way, WITCH WATCH has the best OP of the season, if not year, and the same is true of Ballpark’s ED!

Hmm, I wonder if Bluesky’s reputation as a progressive social media platform will keep channers from jumping ship here, or if its growing density of anime and games focused folks will make it more a prime target? Either way, channers repent or fuck off!

Toho's year-end consolidated financial results show the final price tag of its acquisition of GKIDS in October was ¥19.2 billion (≈US$129 million), paid in cash. The original estimate given in January was US$140 million.
