Spy x Family: The chapters with Daybreak and George Glooman were fun

Vivy continues to impress, I’m already excited for next week!

Shadows House — I still think Mia is pretty sus Those were just the shadow’s emotions. Sure. The phantoms and soot sickness were pretty damn creepy.

TWEWY makes me want to watch more anime adaptions of RPGs. I hardly ever have time to play games anymore.

I read up to chapter 23 of Spy x Family this evening. Some random thoughts... I love a good dodgeball match! I was secretly hoping that Anya would somehow singlehandedly win the whole thing, but it was probably better that she didn’t. Oh well, she got her first star not long after that. The extra mission chapter, 15.1 IIRC, where Loid and Yor go on a date and Anya and Scruffy tail them was great The whole dog bombers thing was good. Loved the panel where Yor is spinning in mid air, just about to wreck the dude who was threatening Anya Yor reminds me a bit of Mikasa. The dog is cool

Read a couple more chapters while I was eating lunch... Yuri's first encounter with Loid was funny, especially drunk Yor giving Yuri a beatdown

Get a some OJ and a bottle of sparkling wine, mimosas are what I would prescribe in this case. Also a shot of scotch before bedtime won't hurt.

I got to chapter 11 last night. The part where Anya drilled the Desmond kid right in the face was perhaps the most satisfying thing so far for me Take that, shithead Of course, now he's probably got a thing for her because she actually stood up to him...

Super Cub is such a feel-good show

I don’t think the A’s will keep this up. But they have a knack for putting good teams together out of spare parts.

If you like “Bone Machine” then start with their earlier material. Come On Pilgrim EP and then Surfer Rosa. I don’t think I’m familiar with that YouTube channel but I’ll check it out!

Well, you keep telling me the story gets better, so I can’t help but be curious! Despite my (numerous? ) complaints so far about the anime, it is an interesting premise with some interesting characters, so I’ll keep giving it a chance even if I’m not in love with everything about it.

Hmm... so that's a bit over 100 chapters to get current. I might have it in me.

If one wanted to read Dr. Stone starting from where the Stone Wars anime ended in the winter, then what chapter would one start at..?

I dunno, I think Brazil is botching their COVID response pretty badly, so I don't think US and A gets to be No. 1 at failing-to-control-COVID

Anybody know if the final season is also going to be 25 episodes like the first and second seasons..? Or could this one potentially be shorter? I'm unfamiliar with the manga so I have no idea how much story is left Poor Machi

Rather than learning from the mistakes made in the U.S. and other places, we decided in Ontario that it would be best to just repeat all the same mistakes

On a big Pixies kick this week. I wore their albums out in high school / college. It's been years since I last listened to them because of how much I over-listened to them years ago. Really enjoying hearing these songs again now though

I didn't get to Spy x Family yet, but I just read through the first few chapters of i tell c, and it's pretty amusing so far. Good enough for me to continue reading.

The Ms might be bad when 162 games are over and done with, but they're on a nice little run to start the season! I hope it continues.

I think the last MCU movie I watched was Ant-Man (the first one)... I lost interest in the whole thing and have been out of the loop for a while now... but I'd be tempted to check out Shang-Chi. These movies don't go on Netflix anymore, right? Guess I'll have to try to catch it on a plane someday if we can ever travel again

It makes sense why Sony would be unhappy over this, but it's great news for fans of baseball games. It's nice to have some choice and it sucked that The Show was a Sony exclusive for so long. Realistically, I don't think this is that big of a deal because I don't think The Show is going to move a lot of consoles for either company, baseball just doesn't seem as popular as other sports.

Try not to get sick. Keep going to work. Try not to get sick at work. Keep going to work even if you do get sick (or stay home and I guess just stop paying rent or stop eating???).

I'll read the first few chapters of each later today and then decide if I want to keep reading. Based on the descriptions I've read about Spy x Family, it sounds like I'll really like it.
