@IncroyableSauce Honestly shocked you didn’t discover this sooner. With all the manga you read and anime you watch, I figured it would have come across your feed at some point. Have you read her autobiographical manga? It’s hilarious.

Just found out the author of Beastars is the daughter of the author of Baki. Freaky ass fucking family wtf😭😭😭😭

@dead_baseball Do you think he’ll surpass Trout?

He's going to be one of those guys where you blink and he all of a sudden has 50+ career WAR.

@gartblart @AceHainley It’s my family’s whole philosophy: the best sports player is probably an accountant who was told too young they weren’t athletic enough, and there’s probably a sports meathead who was told he’s too stupid for poetry, so he’ll never fulfill his laureate potential.

@AceHainley the greatest poem of all time is probably some bullshit written down in a diary somewhere by someone who doesn’t realize they’re a poet

beautiful

@IncroyableSauce With it being so close, I wish it wasn’t Mappa. I want those people to be allowed to live.

A1 or Mappa please

@thebenchesclear @rexdeaz Actually, they’ve decided it’s more likely than not (civil trial found OJ liable), but that it’s not provable beyond any reasonable doubt (found not guilty at the criminal trial). So the court’s opinion is: “The probability OJ killed two people is 100>x>50%.”

@rexdeaz according to the legal system oj simpson’s wife was killed by colombian hitmen so i’m good on that

just discovered a new type of guy who thinks that barry bonds did not do steroids

@JamesPetigru @Halalcoholism I’d put him as not a great songwriter, but definitely a good songwriter who’s one of the best performers.

@Halalcoholism Where does this schema leave Elton John?

It’s a pretty flawed framework that views even the greatest rappers (who mostly only write lyrics) as better songwriters than great singer-songwriters who write both the lyrics and music to their songs.

@HO7MGREN It’s really funny. Stood next to Anthony Leal (IU basketball player). He looked diminutive on the TV, and yet he still towered over me and my 6’ friend

seeing basketball players who are considered short in the context of basketball next to average height people is so funny

@dyingscribe Had this convo with my dad, and we basically came down to, “His wife was wrong for cheating on him. He was wrong for sidelining his wife and treating her like she was second to his job – all while not respecting her wishes - therefore it makes sense she ended up cheating on him.”

Guys keep talking about Tom Brady like “He was six feet tall” “He was rich” “he was famous” “He was ambitious” “ what more could a woman want?“ And ignore like the explicit reasons why he got divorced. You guys kill me cause you’ve been doing this for years

@DrWallkick While an hour earlier complaining about the carceral state.

One of the funniest genre of post is when someone does an epic clapback because they don't know what words mean and think it's cop speak to refer to someone on trial for a crime as "the defendant"

@IncroyableSauce People need to start delineating their opinions more. Because to this person, maybe something they saw on the endings of the stories made them bad. But, in a general sense, the only one with a “bad” ending is, as you said, TR. Also… maybe they mean disappointing, but not bad.

Tokyo Revengers is the only bad ending here?

@dead_baseball I would have figured her naziism was the reason she was called a bad owner, but that’s just me.

A lot of people are pointing out that game 5 was in Oakland, so this can't be true, but playoff teams share gate receipts regardless of venue with players getting a 60% cut of required games (first 4 of a 7 game series). Using 2026 dollars...

@IncroyableSauce Always love the dichotomy of your posts. Either it’s (most often good) critique, or it’s you publicly announcing your tastes like you’re Todo and Yuji.

Larp larp larp. The main trio dont NEED to have kids, we dont even know if Megumi didnt. Nobara is happy as a rich old cat lady and Yuji is immortal. Yuka wasnt meant to fight, she goes against her mother’s orders numerous times and one of those times is to fight Dabura. Which is the literal fucking opposite of the old system. Sorcerers are sent in pairs, never alone like Haibara. Young sorcerers arent allowed to enter Tokyo for ghe exorcism ritual, only specifc grade 1s are. Curses only exist really in Tokyo because of the barrier. Mei Mei killed the Head of NSS because she was siphoning life off of Ui Ui. It wasnt some noble cause, she did it because her brother was actively being harmed. You also need a permit to join the NSS, you cant just join. Modulo shows us that change must be carried on by the next next generation, it didnt. Iori disappeared. They were lax, now it falls to Usami and Yuji to guide them as people like Iori should have. Ill put it to you like this, was racism eradicated after the Civil Rights movement? Was homophobia eradictaed after legalising gay marriage? Was poverty eradicated after the introduction of the welfare state? if your answer to these are no, you acknowledge that social reformation doesnt occur because of the organisation of one generation.

@JoestarJokic Sorry, if the ten seed makes it to the playoffs… do they still get that pick?

feel like this also really incentivizes punting the season to some degree if you’re the 7-10 seed

@lukeisamazing I dislike Embiid because I think he’s a dirty player who attempts to intentionally injure opponents. This obviously means I hate him because he’s African. Hence my dislike for Alex Caruso as well.

I think yall should take politics more seriously so you don’t say silly shit

@visceralscenery St Paul, Minnesota? Really? Because I could see calling A SINGLE block gritty, but not in any way St Paul as a whole.

@mrs_g_rider Something I’m doing as I leave college and have to start paying for books on my own. Check out a book, and if I like it enough to want it in a collection, put it on a list to buy later. Otherwise, return it after finishing with the knowledge that it’s done.

My coworker said he doesn't use the public library because he likes to own the books he reads. I told him he can do both - buy the book and check it out from the library. It helps the library and everyone who uses it as well as helping the author, plus he loses nothing. He was

@its_hipolita Also, “asking for beginner movies?” Like… why people do when they say, “What horror movies should I watch?” Or, what parents take their kids to see in movie theaters?

99% of the time, "beginner anime" just means "battle shonen series that I like" and not like, something that doesn't depend on understanding tropes and conventions unfamiliar to first time watchers.

@ulansahulyo Same thing with comics. Was reading Bone by Jeff Smith, and there are occasional art mistakes that are similar to the mistakes AI makes. It was published in 2009, so there’s no way it uses AI. But a new artist who’s trying to find themselves and makes the same mistake…

What's so sad about this whole thing is that just recently, I've read maybe 2-3 fics that raised "AI alarms", only for me to remember that nope, I'm scouring this tag chronologically and I am now on fics written in 2020-2021. They couldn't have been AI, but they were definitely

@IncroyableSauce No duh, obviously. I more meant the reason we even have the double dungeon as an inciting incident for the rest of the story.

@dnc_rlplcrtk The inciting incident of the show is the double dungeon tbh

The fanbase is cooked but I would like to give them the benefit of the doubt because well… its the only time he shows this kinda emotion towards her. SL probably would have been better if it started with her falling asleep, so its the inciting event for his journey
