Happy Lunar New Year to all who celebrate it! Call up those folks who will forever be disappointed in your choices as a human being and take every opportunity to shame you for your happiness and not being Asian enough! You know, because Asians are all about supporting family, just usually only in one direction ( Read more... )

I was planning on doing this ass-long post about the suckage that 2011 was for me and how I basically hated everybody on the planet with whom I had regular contact (and even those I wasn't seeing all that often), the BFFAEAE being the sole exception, and how it was good that I wasn't around much because I spent 2011 a pissy little bitch about ( Read more... )

I'm totally losing my taste for anime. I could not for the life of me get into two of the "best" anime in recent years (Fullmetal Alchemist and Soul Eater) and even the slice-of-life stuff (my favorite genre, mind) is so subpar (K-On!, I'm looking at you. HARD ( Read more... )

Which I still suck ( Read more... )

Satoshi Kon, my favorite anime director, of whom I just yesterday said "I would take him over Miyazaki any day," is deadWhen I found out I literally felt like I'd been sucker-punched in the gut. I went numb. This is ridiculous. I didn't know him personally, I never met him, I have no reason to feel this way. I didn't even see everything he did, ( Read more... )
