I have a dislocated jaw because I once yawned too hard many years ago. I can't blow up balloons because of this.

Inside me are two wolves. One says red haired shoujo protagonists are best. The other says it's the pink haired ones that are superior. They've long ago moved in together and are planning on adopting a child.

It's telling that the best news I've seen in the last week on this website is that the horrible news I saw was fake.

Canada's British Columbia to adopt year-round daylight saving time The province on Canada's Pacific coast says ending the twice annual practice of changing the time by an hour is "about making life easier".

Congratulations to the people of BC for entering more civilized times. May the rest of Canada one day follow suit.

I see they're trying that thing from Godzilla vs Gigan again where he and Anguirus talk in speech bubbles. But I'm not really happy with what he has to say.

โ€œFriendsโ€ is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adultsโ€”Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebeโ€”living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.

It will never be the thing that we really want it to be, because we all know that Disney will hold on to that with an iron grip.

If you're a fan of mecha series, you owe it to yourself to buy and assemble at least one model kit. It doesn't even have to be from a series or franchise that you're watching, and can even be a budget model. But I guarantee it will give you an appreciation for how mecha in general are designed.

Just heard a clip from a podcast where the hosts said Return to Oz (1985) was bad. That's it. Shut down the internet. We had a good run but things are getting out of hand.

The photo shows four images of the same Roman iron stylus (pen) one below the other, with knib to the left. This stylus is octagonal in shape, with an inscription dot-punched along its length on four alternate sides. The stylus is 132 mm long and 5 mm thick, and the letters are circa 2 mm high. The four images of the pen show the four lines of inscribed text (highlighted) which read:

โ€˜ab urbe v[e]n[i] munus tibi gratum adf(e)ro
acul[eat]um ut habe[a]s memor[ia]m nostra(m)
rogo si fortuna dar[e]t quo possem
largius ut longa via ceu sacculus est (v)acuusโ€™

Translated as

โ€˜I have come from the City. I bring you a welcome gift
with a sharp point that you may remember me.โ€จI ask, if fortune allowed, that I might be able (to give)
as generously as the way is long (and) as my purse is empty.โ€™

This inscription is generally interpreted by scholars as a humorous, tongue-in-cheek acknowledgment by the giver of the cheapness of the gift. 

The pen was used to write on wax-filled wooden writing tablets. Found in London (Roman โ€˜Londiniumโ€™) by MOLA, during excavations for Bloombergโ€™s European Headquarters in 2010โ€“2014 . Photo by Juan Jose Fuldain for MOLA

Timeless humour!

A 2,000 year-old Roman souvenir pen with a joke inscription roughly equivalent to:

โ€œI went to Rome and all I got you was this cheap pen!" ๐Ÿ˜‚

Dated circa 70 AD, this iron stylus pen was recovered in London during excavations by MOLA. ๐Ÿ“ท Juan Jose Fuldain/MOLA

Glad I work in a hospital. It's still the regular pain drugs but I at least don't have to pat for them.

Bourne Legacy. Such a stupid movie with a stupid premise, where the villains make the stupidest decisions, and what little potential it had was wasted for a generic Hollywood climax that I can't even remember. Mostly, I was angry at myself for spending money on it.

Viz needs to reprint more of their OOP Shojo Beat titles (From Far Away, Here is Greenwood, etc.) Or at least put them on the Viz app to read. A lot of these titles aren't available online to read because they were probably taken down when they were licensed.

If you're just going to sit through it without putting any thought into what's in front of you, you're not watching anime. You're giggling at jangling keys. Take it from someone who lived it.

Focusing on quantity with anime is the absolute wrong way to go about things. You've got a lifetime to watch what you want, so don't try to blow through everything in a single shot. There was a time when I just consumed at a furious rate, and I remember near nothing from then.

Genuine interaction between me and a coworker:

Her: You know those decorative globes? The ones with the snow in them?

Me: You mean snow globes?

Her: Yeah. It looks like that outside right now.
