Good morning and all that wonderful bullshit.

Think I'm gonna spend most of the NBA season pirating the games because fuck their broadcasting contracts. I'm not going to subscribe to 473638294 streaming services just to catch these games, nor am I going to pay for an NBA League Pass that doesn't even stream all the games.

Fuck corporate greed.

I feel like I need to watch this anime soon, I hear a lot of good things about it.

Bro, fuck the NBA's corporate greed, why can I not watch the Warriors play on a local broadcast? I'm not shelling out money to stream this on Peacock, I'll pirate it instead.

Way to fuck over the consumer, Adam Silver.

I'm about 70% done with The Way of Kings GraphicAudio. I'm excited for the Sanderlanche I know is coming as I get near the end of the story.

It's crazy how I sometimes get shivers with how good this book is.

It goes without saying, Warriors.

Having my third cup of coffee in the morning, and the caffeine is hitting just right. This is nice.

Hell fucking yeah, I'm locked in. Only 12.5 more hours to go before tip off ahahah.

Damn, the Anime & Manga EN 🆕 feed is broken. Is this another metaphor for the AWS fiasco that happened yesterday and how we may need more redundant feeds of the same topic?

Okay, 15 episodes in, and I'm starting to feel confident that Victory Gundam might be pretty good. The art isn't anything to write home about, but the story is enough to keep me engaged.

I like Uso way more than I liked Judau in ZZ, but Judau does have the better character design.

New Bluesky handle, who dis?

This feels better ahahah. Ryuuji is my go-to handle for anime-related spaces, and since I'm mainly on AniSky, might as well be consistent.

Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination.

Update: made an offer on one I found on eBay and it was accepted. Guess I will be a proud owner of a custom ipod classic again.

This will be my birthday gift to myself, next I'll need a pair of audiophile headphones. Any recommendations?

Fuck, I've never related so hard to a character and depression than I have to Kaladin from the Stormlight Archive. Sanderson is a master of his craft and we are truly lucky to experience and appreciate his work in this lifetime.

I am so so sooooo tempted to buy a modded ipod classic for nostalgia's sake.

Is this the start of my audiophile origin story?

I've been listening to the Graphic Audio rendition of The Way of Kings to prepare myself for book 5 of Stormlight Archive and I'm reminded once again why Kaladin is my favorite character.

Going to make my way through the first four books like this and then bust out my kindle to read Wind and Truth.

Good morning and all that wonderful bullshit.

Something I've been thinking about is how I'll best utilize this social media account and I think I'ma be a Threads kinda guy once I start sitting down and formulating my thoughts better.

Same, I left Twitter for this, but the experience hasn't been exactly a 1 to 1 match in terms of ease of use. Reddit's even worse for politics, but at least there's enough subreddits to subscribe to and scroll through, BlueSky keeps all feeds separate. Wish feeds could be merged.

One of my gripes with Bluesky is how political the trends tend to be. I'm more likely to stay within my own feeds rather than clicking on the search tab and seeing what's trending.

Favorite? I'd have to go with Overlord, Code Geass, Toradora, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, and OreGairu.

I rewatch these at least every two years or so.

Good morning and all that wonderful bullshit. What a glorious day to have some morning coffee.

I too watched Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash for the plot.

Watching NBA games is kinda bullshit this year. You're telling me I need to subscribe to 3495648 different platforms just to watch my local team play? Even the official NBA doesn't livestream every game, that's ridiculous.

Adam Silver is basically telling us to go pirate this shit.

Finished Stardust Memories and now I'm on Victory Gundam and the animation is... interesting, to say the least.

11 episodes in and the story is there, it's actually been good so far, but the lack of shading and less detailed animation is taking a while to get used to.

Good morning and all that wonderful bullshit.

The new Pokemon game got leaked and guess who has a modded Switch ready to test it out after work?

That's right, not me, Nintendo, I would never.

Totally.

Piracy is bad.

Using a toothpick or tweezers helps a lot with these tiny stickers.

My work schedule has been hectic lately and doesn't give me a lot of time to myself, hopefully this weekend I'll have the chance to be able to consume some media, namely the Fall anime I listed I wanted to watch.

Ahahahah I appreciate your support! Makes me feel better about the way I consume and support content I like.

Good morning and all that wonderful bullshit. Hopefully the last day I do this early morning shift.
