Went to Waterstones and collected my copy of The Eternaut. It’s an Argentine comic series by Hector German Oesterheld and drawn by Francisco Solano Lopez. It’s very acclaimed and it’s finally been reprinted in English. The Netflix sticker is on the plastic film.

Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Chapters 1 - 3: Jujutsu Kaisen always felt like a very Rob Zombie action manga. The series might as well be called Super-Doom-Hex-Gloom-School. With that in mind the shift to focusing on aliens who know magic kung-fu feel almost makes sense. I swear the Rob Zombie...

“Mr Mamdani, how will you insert Gundam Unicorn and the currently releasing Gundam Hathaway series into this curriculum? Surely production order is the ideal way to experience the UC Timeline.”

Confessions and Creepy from CEX and a Region A 2022 copy of Needless from eBay

@Titan In my experience they only send a confirmation email when the last item is dispatched and if you order multiple items they will ship separately.

Kagurabachi Chapters 104-107 - Hokazono has so far been able to resolve some big mysteries in the series while keeping the action fast paced and tensions high. I’m guessing this arc ends in the next 6-8 chapters so that they can wrap it up in the 12th volume (they have enough for 11 right now)...

New trailer for Hathaway: The Sorcery of Nymph Circe confirms that the opening theme is Snooze by SZA @lonelywolf23786 I’m very jealous of your new Wing Books.

Terror in Resonance An odd show where it feels like a tremendous amount of the intended impact is missing because I'm watching it outside its original cultural context. While I can understand what the series is about or parse out its meanings it feels like the project demands a perspective I...

My Lesbian Experience With Loneliness by Kabi Nagata from Ebay for my bookclub later this year. Preorder Volume One and Two of The Five Star Stories by Mamoru Nagano from Blackwells. They pushed the release date back a few months but hopefully my order goes through.

Got two John Lewis bookcases delivered yesterday. Spent the afternoon making space for them and will spend tomorrow screwing them together and filling them with stuff. Hopefully this will help me get my collection looking presentable.

Diebuster is shipping out for me as well. I’d resisted buying the standard edition in HMV yesterday so that’s a nice coincidence. My Christmas order was made at 16:30 on the final day of the sale as a calculated move to have something to look forward to in January or February.

Exactly. They haven't gotten close to sorting out the Venezuelan crisis they just started before listing Mexico, Greenland and Cuba as states they need to 'take care of'. Claudia Sheinbaum is popular in Mexico. She won an election fair and square. There's no moral pretext for presumably bombing...

In one week my new bookcase should be delivered. So I’ve managed to get most of my stuff into boxes and I hope to spend next weekend getting things in order. This requires getting rid of a lot of stuff but hopefully that will also work out. Got really bored at 1am and went through two boxes...

Trump is very open about the fact he wants the oil and American companies to get control over that industry. While also saying that he has zero faith in Maria Corina Machado to actually take power. Additionally he and the secretary of State Marco Rubio have both said they except Maduro's VP to...

The trick with AI isn’t that we are waiting for it to get so good that it’s indistinguishable from real human art. That can’t happen and everyone implicitly understands that. It’s the reason a very common sales pitch for this technology is trying to convince you that its success is inevitable so...
