Yeah, there's been people posting it online. Apparently it's a safety concern. Of course, I'm thinking of the South Park episode where during Christmas all the alcohol and drugs get restricted to prevent drunk driving, but the adults all refuse to drive while sober. God it'd be nice to discuss South Park clips and not Trump and existential dread for a while.

We needed stronger checks and balances on all sides. This might be why some places are refusing to sell alcohol today.

I hope so. I have two bottles on standby right now: champagne (as in French champagne from France) and vodka. I hope I get to drink the former.

People were earmarking it as a possible Toonami show, but after a poor outing over the summer on Netflix (complete with getting battered by Hajime no Ippo on the service), it's done.

Homemade clam chowder with cheddar biscuits.

No lie, the clear view that MAGA supports a fucking squirrel belonging to a gay porn star more than women and Puerto Ricans is only going to make them vote against him harder.

Also the judge just declined to issue an injunction. He did not rule on the legality.

That might explain the three polls with little credibility suddenly appearing about Iowa to "WELL ACTHSUALLY" things. I don't want to be overconfident, because 2016 screwed us. I do think that there are some fundamental differences this time.

Now that the show has failed to hit the top 10 on Max, which is actually something all of the Adult Swim original action shows that weren't FLCL sequels have done since they started measuring a top 10 (so roughly going back to Ninja Kamui) I think an issue here is that...men don't want to see men beat up women in a sport context. This is another ramble, but hear me out. It's one thing for Wonder Woman or the Powerpuff Girls to beat up bad guys. They have superpowers, and they clearly have an ability that puts them beyond normal thugs. But in the context of a sport, well, we don't have men fight women in combat sports for a reason. It feels wrong to have a dude wail on a girl. I mean the whole setup is kind of stupid for a serialized show we're supposed to take semi-seriously, (it worked in Kinnikuman because the warring factions of superhumans decided pro wrestling matches were a more sporting way to settle their battles than all-out war, as well as a means to limit collateral damage), but that sort of thing just makes you feel icky more than anything. Tiger Mask had female villains, but when they got in the ring, they fought other women, which is probably why W had a subplot of the main character's female manager taking on the mantle of Spring Tiger to wrestle herself, so she could wrestle other women when having Tiger Mask himself beat them up would just feel wrong. I'm also not the biggest fan of Andy's design, since it hits all the Current Year stereotypes, and doesn't really lend itself well to action in an equal setting without superpowers.

At least he seemed to die peacefully with friends and family. RIP.

Unlike MAWS, Rick and Morty the anime and Uzumaki, the Invisible Flop Girl has failed to crack the top 10 on Max. Meanwhile the Hashira Training Arc of Demon Slayer is bouncing around the Netflix Top 10, peaking at 7. Take that Outer Wilds!

See, this is what I meant about the show being a cargo cult production. It's disparate elements thrown together to make an incoherent whole.

It’s being heavily artificially boosted by Elon and his troll farm, but the fucking squirrel had rabies.

Golf is a fucking expensive hobby. Maybe this is why I liked grappling so much. Lack of necessary equipment. Still the lesson today really fixed a big flaw in my game. Now I just need to be consistent so I can play with family, friends, and clients.

They worked against fascists.

This is either some weird reverse psychology or they’re sick of being associated with trash people. I’m honestly confused. Maybe they worry that Trump as a symbol eclipses the hate they want to promote because he just wants self-adoration.

Something something worst person you know. ”It’s supposed to be about the hating, man! Not loving Trump!”

That’s the long and short of it.

That's a market predicting he's going to lose bigly.

I might be expecting too much that actual professionals engage with their material outside of the most surface-level takes, but Ultimate Muscle was fairly successful in the US, to the point that it got a whole extra season because of its popularity here. Why are you trying to imitate anime in the first place? That's my first question. The guy has experience on numerous comic book adaptations that didn't need to imitate anime. We have our own distinctive art styles. Use those. This already looks girlbossed to hell with the usual Current Year requirements, and the fact that it is a cargo cult of a production is not helping.
