sorry for the abruptness, but i gotta disappear from the internet for a few weeks to take care of some irl obligations that were scheduled before this election even happened. here’s what that means election-wise:
in the event that me/late are crowned the winners of the election following vote verification, @late has agreed to temporarily assume the presidency and share our victory speech on my behalf until i’m back, then we can do a real inauguration later or something idk how you guys want to handle this
and in the event that we lose, @late will share our concession speech and we’ll all… uh… move on with our lives i guess
either way, try not to burn the place down while i’m gone!
just watched My Neighbor Totoro for the first time (I’m not big into anime or anything so I’m VERY late), it was definitely absolute cinema
if you have any general animated movie/show recommendations (anime or non, doesn’t matter) feel free to let me know!
“♫ it’s a lovely day to walk down the road, and if i ever stop singing i will explode- ♫“
“hey steven!”
“what have you done”
explodes
so i signed up for the digg relaunch to see what it’s like. if you’re unaware, it was reddit before reddit became reddit, and since… uh… people don’t exactly like reddit’s newer decisions, they’re trying to relaunch digg (with the help of one of reddit’s co-founders)
fine print that i don’t think was communicated as well as it should have been: the new digg isn’t actually out yet. by paying the five bucks, you’re not actually getting access to the new digg, you get access to a sort of private forum thing to discuss what the new digg should be like.
but it’s still kinda cool to watch the whole thing take shape! in case anyone here signed up as well, feel free to send me a dm there, im @kiwi2
i’ve never seen the show or anything, but the smiling friends end credits theme basically sums up what the inside of my brain sounds like at any given moment
currently trying to make an amateurish personal backup of OK KO on DVD because they never made a complete series box set, finished burning season 1 today
i just got an email from gocomics telling me they redesigned their website to be better than ever
what they actually did was make the website harder to navigate and locked almost their entire archive behind a monthly paywall while acting like said paywall was always there, when it used to be free to access with an optional subscription if you didn’t want ads
guess i just lost access to where like 65% of all popular comic strips are hosted, crapification strikes again
look I get that inflation is worse than ever, but charging $80 for mario kart 9 is ridiculous
just watched robot dreams after randomly stumbling across it on disney+, ‘twas absolute cinema
and i guess the final movie i’ll ever watch before the switch 2 direct lol
