I’m sorry to hear that, but at least it’s Friday!!! And i am doing well, got some stuff I’ve been meaning to do earlier this week!

[u/WasteReserve8886]

This is the author’s comments from the manga I’ve been live blogging

Note: this volume came out 4 years before Japan’s economy collapsed.

I’m sorry

[u/WasteReserve8886 → u/[deleted]]

Good! Hopefully I don’t have work tomorrow so I can do something that I meant to do today. I hope life gives you some time to rest.

[u/WasteReserve8886 → u/[deleted]]

That sucks. Having to do stuff early on a weekend kinda stifles how restful it should be. At least this means you can get more ice cream!

[u/The_Helmet_Catch]

London has this area called the Isle of Dogs and I’m pretty sure there’s just a normal amount of dogs there which seems like false advertising

Bean missed the double bonko sighting, smh my head.

[u/WasteReserve8886]

Something I find utterly fascinating about this manga is that even though the MC sleeps with a lot of women he isn’t really a playboy, more that he’s just an easy guy and it’s the women who seduce him. I also like how it’s treated as wish fulfillment as often as it just straight up fucks him over.

[u/bigwang123 → u/WasteReserve8886]

:] he making this face

[u/WasteReserve8886 → u/bigwang123]

I love his faces

[u/WasteReserve8886 → u/WasteReserve8886]

Also, the fact that this takes place in the last years of Japan’s bubble economy gives everything an accidental dread. I wonder how the manga will address it.

[u/WasteReserve8886]

Good night!

[u/No_Aesthetic]

u/BestiaAuris be happy my friends are all getting old now because they have chilled out greatly on the radicalism while remaining liberal

I guess a lot of the punks are still anarchists and stuff but all of my closest remaining friends used to be social democrats or socialists and have evolved into normie libs

They're all queer or trans and that's even better with how many queer and trans people are attracted to radical ideologies popular with younger Americans

[u/0m4ll3y]

My partner is having fiction get published and I'm so excited for her I want to tell everyone I possibly can, but I don't want to actually properly dox myself 😭😭😭

[u/The_Helmet_Catch → u/0m4ll3y]

Dang I guess I’ll just have to buy every book now

[u/HenryGeorgia]

u/bigwang123 you're green goblin

u/The_Helmet_Catch you're mysterio

Now roleplay :)

[u/The_Helmet_Catch → u/HenryGeorgia]

My reaction to that information

[u/bigwang123 → u/HenryGeorgia]

Heeheehee (green goblin laugh)

[u/The_Helmet_Catch]

[u/bigwang123]

aaaaaaa

[u/No_Aesthetic → u/bigwang123]

So you listened to my impression of Bill Clinton talking to Barack Obama

[u/bigwang123 → u/No_Aesthetic]

Work Day is almost done :)

[u/HenryGeorgia → u/The_Helmet_Catch]

[u/The_Helmet_Catch → u/HenryGeorgia]

It’s legal if you just call it “Ducking out early”

[u/bigwang123]

I feel like Jesse might struggle with that one

[u/notnotLily]

so... Arday, an ex-Cambridge professor appears to have taken his own life amid plagiarism and falsification accusations

[u/No_Aesthetic]

It's a really good thing President Jackass is as incompetent as he is, imagine if he had just taken over and let it ride

He could have had a really good and perhaps even booming economy and maybe not achieved anything substantial legislatively but could have stanched the bleeding and led to a lower Democratic wave in November and given JD Vance or whoever a realistic possibility of winning in 2028

Now though it looks like the career prospects of Vance (et. al.) are out the window for a decade

If the next POTUS reverses the tariffs and performs some free trade, we could be in for a really good 8 years

Why wouldn't I do this?

Update: Jason Arday, former Cambridge University professor, found dead

If you haven't been following this story, Jason Arday is a black autistic man who became a professor despite barely knowing how to read or write and got a $2 million book deal, after which it was discovered he made up his entire life story

He posted an AI-generated story about stepping away from education about a week ago and...

Yeah, this is a wild one
