We cannot, as an unorganized niche nerd collective, allow people to be nostalgic for Windows Vista

My brother, we had to explain a 1/3 pound burger was bigger than a quarter pound burger and still failed

*explaining Umamusume to fellow old otaku* Okay, so, Still in Love is the mid-decade denpa heroine, and Aston Machan is the Key heroine, but not one of the ones Maeda wrote -- there aren't enough scenes where she's doing manzai bits with her Trainer for that

Something that speaks to a sudden decline in our society is the amount of people I’ve seen lately approaching stop signs and then going right through them like “nope, don’t believe in this anymore!”

It seems like a common pattern with a lot of these companies trying to poach big established talent is to be like “no budget, no rules, sky’s the limit” then arbitrarily decide that they’ve overspent their blank cheque. There’s a limit, you just won’t know until you hit it.

Takamura: Good morning. Akiurara (me): Good morning. (Politely)

Takamura: You don't need to be so polite with me. Say it like you would to a friend.

Akiurara: Really, well, then... Good morning. Takamura: Yes, good morning.

RE9 comic Big monster dragging Grace away as she screams Monster gets shot in the face BLAM!! Leon smugly: "Seems like she was... a bit of a drag" Grace, having nearly died by a giant freakish monster, looks up at Leon entirely confused "huh?"

i almost had my head bitten off by a giant freakish monster, why is this old man making lame jokes at me 😭 #re9

every time i hear about theme parks and how they are managed it feels like i'm communicating with another species. what do you mean, star wars land was set in a specific point in the timeline. a kid goes there and wants a picture with princess leia and is told sorry kid she's canonically dead

A black-and-white cat wearing an yellow flower collar, sitting next to a large Pikachu plush toy.

Uni with Pikachu

this was an idle joke a year ago but what with current events and so on i think there is now a legitimate chance that by the time this game releases whatever world it is satirizing will be so dead its genre might as well be fantasy

Every lengthy write-up on "lessons learned" after someone lets an AI process delete their database or all their emails reads like this to me

tenchi masaki from tenchi muyo dressed in a grey schoolgirl uniform walks through a scifi scanner thingie

a computer screen showing his skeleton and a DNA strand, captioned dialog reads "everything looks okay"

the space cop or whatever says "but did you know your frame is very masculine?"

tenchi says "uh, i... have a father who's a man"

it's a pleasant surprise if you find a crossdressing character in a 90s anime and the joke being told is funny

Too bad we're rolling with it. 😼

The other day I watched a coworker with what I would describe as a "loose" typing style whip out the "Revise with Copilot" on a message and all I could think was "my dude, everyone on this thread has read your e-mails for a decade, c'mon"

"omg did you see Rotta the Hutt? He's Jabba's son and he is going to fight the Mandalorian and Gr-"

You bolt awake in the hills of Burbank. It is 1976 AD. You are Marcia Lucas, and you have changed your mind. The future cannot come to pass. Star Wars must match George's original vision

「Ｄ■ｓｉｔｅやＦＡ■ＺＡの紳士用ＲＰＧの世界だったのです」 For your convenience, I have obscured the portion of this comic panel inappropriate for some audiences.

Book Walker promo banners provide a valuable window into all of the ways publishers are trying to capitalize on current trends, like a "technically, it's not porno" comic about a girl getting isekai'd into a low-budget doujin porno RPG. Sasuga Young Champion

Sword Art Online's best feature as a Media Franchise is how often it takes itself incredibly self-seriously, regardless of how plainly stupid any and all parts of it are

loool the new sao game reveal new trailer in japan is a billion times better
they made a real fake documentary with celebrities like enako and kajita showing up as cameos (and some popular vtuber but I'm an anime boomer so I don't know them)

Quattro: I would like to start by apologizing to the members of this Assembly and all Federation citizens. We mean no disrespect to you by taking control of this session. Chotiner: OK Quattro: Deep down, we all believe that humanity should no longer pollute the Earth! Only the Titans, whose souls are weighed down by gravity, still think of ravaging it! Chotiner: But that's not the only reason you've come here today, is it? Quattro: What do you mean? Chotiner: I've heard you have another name.

there is no universe in which Char turns down an interview with Chotiner

Thoughts on the one-of-a-kind theatrical experience of seeing the voting-driven Hypnosis Mic rap battle concert movie. I had a great time.

One upside of rarely talking about certain media you enjoy in public is you don't have the obnoxious teenager (or worse, teenager at heart) in your ear or your mentions wondering if you present appropriately to be seen enjoying this work

also, i think yuri should be appreciated by all sexualities and genders.

TIL people have no idea what himedanshi are and also think the term is invented by english-speaking people.

the term has always existed in the 2010s thanks to the popularity of the yurihime magazine (also where himejoshi come from). you can find people asking about the term in like 2015 lol.

I think they're bad parents because doctors and nurses are telling them what they should do and instead they're listening to a 22 year old nick shirley fuck on tiktok or a man with literal brain worms.

Unfortunately, “Yo brother, legal team confirmed we can’t work with minors rn” is an instant classic
