RE: "Anne Hathaway said Inshallah" distressing how many people are effectively shocked that a privileged Western person would lower themselves into marking themselves genocide fodder by saying things only subhuman mulch would say. So much of the discussion is looking for a "justification"?
The Witch Hat Atelier anime is goooorgeous and I will praise Shirahama as a master of her craft till I die.
But I only discovered it when s3 of TOH was being made. Any similarities are entirely coincidental!
If you want to read something that inspired me for TOH, China Mieville’s Bas Lag series!
Fuck, all translators I've searched have gen AI shit. I have an offline one that translate very direct and poorly, sort of works for me but hard to show someone. Where did all the ones that used a basic lightweight context go. Shitty age
Google translate now forces Gemini, just so you know
#serious ok, from what I've seen yes, google translator is using gen AI and hallucinating stuff. Don't trust it anymore. I'll see if there are better ones (I need to make sure DeepL isn't built on the same shit)
He used a block list composed on millions of users who are against AI. So feel proud

Now, I guess I know this bc I know Japanese & follow lots of mangakas (some of which have actually disappointed me with their ideology), so if you don't know your only follow the narrative presented in your feed, so I can't blame them. But if you're reading this please fight back against the impulse
Lots of mangakas are also constantly protesting against the LDP's attempts to reform the Constitution so Japan can go to war if they want to. Opposing that is not "woah how cool!", it's a moral duty, use their reputation to call attention to that crisis, not to feel good about which author you like
I know at the end she's just the "socially conscious mangaka" poster child right now, mostly bc she's the most well-known and nobody pays attention to the rest, but don't use those anecdotes to just have a stan ecstasy for her and her only
Other authors should be payed attention (Hiroe Rei, Sumi Eno, Fujimi Yoiko...) to know this is a collective thing for many & that the point is not to glorify individuals so you feel good, it's to actually take steps towards a better future bc of their collective effort. At least push that narrative
#casual I don't want to dismiss Shirahama Kamome but I don't feel good when people post things like "she donated to this! She is cool (unlike the rest of mangakas)!" just to feel good to like her series bc "she's one of the good ones". Lots of mangakas have done it, don't try to deify an individual
One of the two cards I had the pleasure of painting for Swords Without Master
The next step would be to abandon Windows, though in a way it still lets me play my Steam games
Now I only need to abandon Google Mail and make a backup of my Drive stuff, and I'll have abandoned Google in every way (except YouTube)
#casual since apparently Google Translate now uses Gemini, I uninstalled it and now I use a simplistic literal shabby translator. And it works for my purposes, I can even use it offline (though to force it I must put the phone on flight mode)
#casual women clothes are great. Men really suffer by having so limited options socially allowed. I'm rediscovering a sense of (responsible) fashion that until now I could only reserve to my drawings
in Tomodachi Life, Miles Edgeworth from Axe Attorney is asked, "What should he call Phoenix (Wright) when talking with others?" the option "that man" is selected
"that man"
Then have another: your voice in your videos is very soothing, that along with the pacing and tone makes seeing your videos a very pleasant experience.
Though I get hating your own voice, even me going to a speech teraphist (thus listening to my voice over and over) has not made me cringe any less
In Spain we are still on volume 14 and the arc is about to finish but not yeah, so I'm still biting my nails :<
I dunno about y'all but I'm fairly sure we were sold out. Everybody involved needs to be held accountable for this, and the data centers need to be held not just to the same, but to higher environmental standards.

The fact that "being taxed on a wealth that would take most people dozens of generations to gather" is "the scariest thing she's ever seen" means the world isn't scaring millionaires and billionaires nearly enough yet.
Sigh lookism is everywhere and ruins us so much
I also remember a part in the neat autobiography manga (I can't remember the name sadly now) about a trans woman about her surgery on Thailand (the one with the Otaku nurse whose japanese is all shonen dialogue) but still had the MC thinking a bearded receptionist lady should have decency & shave it

This seems to be a day to talk about it, bc this series (SとX) also released free a chapter about body complexes, about a couple where the man got a shobby and unneeded circumcision and the woman an unneeded and also shobby labia minora shrinking surgery bc of complexes that make their sex miserable
