Priestess Po played by a man

I'm most of the way thru the 3rd Space Sheriff series (Shaider) & they just keep getting better. His partner Annie has lived up to her legend. The plots are bonkers. The villains are fascinating. Casting a man to play Priestess Po was a genius move.

Had to get the remains of a broken tooth removed today. I was shocked at how easy & almost painless the extraction was. Now I'm feeling a dull pain. Tomorrow I'll try eating again.

The BD of Nobody's Boy Remi arrived today. It's a late 70s anime tearjerker directed by Dezaki Osamu & based on a book. I thought they were joking about the 3D, but no. It uses the Pulfrich effect, which I'd never heard of. That explains the multi-plane panning.

I remember those! I had 1 or 2. Pretty sure they're long since gone. There's not many places they could be hiding.

Watched GQuuuuuuX #2 Friday. Fascinating how one little difference (Char replacing Gene) changes so much. OTOH, the Fed's still win at Solomon. Did Char disappear in an Axis Shock? I assume Amuro died, possibly in the Guncannon. What happened to Sayla & Lallah?

Adulting in progress. New phone in mail (to replace old phone showing many signs of extreme age). EZPass in mail (just in case I need to go south). 1st shingles shot done (& I'm feeling it today). Still need a plan for end of Win 10.

From the trailer, I was expecting something closer to a “Gunpla Build” series, but I like the idea of a deep dive into UC lore a lot more.

Just saw Gundam GQuuuuuuX (ジークアクス) #1. Liked the story. Like seeing Challia Bull again. Not a fan of the chara/mech designs or the songs. I see others noticed the ジーク in the title is the same spelling as “Sieg” in “Sieg Zeon”. There're fan theories re: the 6 (silent) u’s in the English spelling.

And now it's back. Still no coherent explanation.

My Facebook account has been suspended because it "doesn't follow our Community Standards on account integrity". Whatever that means. The first step in appealing is taking a video selfie. I don't think I can be bothered...

I read Dahlgren in the 80s. Don't remember much beyond the knife gauntlets, the weird story(?) structure, & enjoying it.

In a break from current events, I just watched Macross: DYRL in 4K! I feel like I've finally seen this flick properly. All the details! I don't think I ever noticed the cars driving upside-down. Misa's lyrics were even legible.

And here I am.
