The funniest possible outcome for Yoko Taro’s Evangelion =

It takes place 10,000 years after TV Timeline Eva, with zero returning characters that Eva is known for, EXCEPT for Mari Illustrious Makinami due to the insanely obscure implication by Fututsuki in Rebuild 3+1 that Mari is probably immortal

this is a really good piece

also, the fundamental issue with the Eva shipping wars is that Shinji sucks

he's been dealt a terrible hand, his dad is an abusive piece of shit, he has reasons for sucking

but he sucks! he's not good for any of them! especially Asuka!

A friend of mine has a Limited Equity Coop, the kind where they take a huge cut on sale value to reduce speculation. He loves it. By poisoning the resale value it naturally reduces market interest and makes it so it’s only a good investment for real people that want to actually live there.

A fun thing happens when you kill home equity: it changes how you approach renovations. By factoring out resale value, it makes you want to do renovations that improve your quality of life, that feel yours, instead of trying to imagine what will be attractive to a theoretical buyer with no taste.

4 pages from the Challengers of the Unknown 1991 limited series: on the first 2 pages, three panels lead to a massive explosion on a mountain. at the bottom, there is a sequence of a robot walking forward, which has been running the entire issue, like a time bomb. on the next two, the explosion ripples like it's tearing into the page itself, as if it was glass, creating dozens of fractured panels, spiraling out in immense white space

on a whim i decided to check out the 1991 Challengers of the Unknown limited series and i gotta say, tim sale does some of his best panelling work ever in this little forgotten title.

Accidentally put Pompompurin through the blender when I was making my morning smoothie. I'm sorry. Pompompurin is a wet paste now. He was put through seven to eight pulses then a full strength blend setting and he's a paste now. He's a paste with some strawberries and bananas. He died in the blender

I am shocked to learn this is actually underestimating costs, because it ignores the infrastructure costs.

This video is lowballing it.

it’s easy to laugh at the British when they fail at sports like Baseball or Basketball, but it’s important to remember they have their own rich tradition of sports like Soccer, Cricket, and Rugby that they also repeatedly fail at.
