Update: won a silver medal yesterday, then turned into a dog.

Someone knew I was coming.

Fencing update: bronze today. A bit miffed I didn’t get silver, partly because I could’ve won my last bout, but mostly because I’ve never won a silver medal before.

an exerpt from an article from Little White Lies: "For a blockbuster with such lofty ideals, where Godzilla’s sex plays no essential part in the story, it makes just as much sense for its sex to remain ambiguous, much like it did in Toho’s Shin Godzilla from 2016.
