The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

Anyone know if Pune airport has any retiring rooms or sleeping pods? May have to spend a day there (middle of the night to early evening). Any other option to spend time thereabouts will also be helpful.

Tried asking on twitter but that place is worse than useless. Please reshare for reach. 🙏

Inktober Day 6 – Miyamura from Horimiya First up, sorry for the late post. I drew this 2 days ago (a day late already per the Inktober schedule) but couldn’t get around to writing about it till now. Period cramps and all that. Anyw…

A very belated #Inktober Day 6 post featuring a very dear character (Miyamura from #Horimiya) and my best sketch yet.

Parents fucking up their kids for life seems to be a universal phenomenon. As someone dealing with parent issues myself, you have my fullest empathy. Hope you are able to break the cycle and find some peace and joy.

Inktober Day 5 – Secrets of the Silent Witch So, like I said yesterday, I decided to interpret the prompt for Day 5 a bit creatively. The prompt was ‘Deer’ and I had a hard time finding deer in the anime I’ve watched. Meanwh…

#Inktober Day 5 blog post. Another review of sorts. This time about Secrets of the Silent Witch, which you should all watch.

Yup yup, it's all coming back to me now 😅 Hi hi! 😁

Package of nava rice kanji mix

I very randomly found this small place that sources heritage rice varieties from across the country and picked up this nava arisi kanji, that also includes some samba, and it blew my mind how good it smelled and tasted. Will check if they have the one you've mentioned.

Ahh karaboondi rings a bell! (And is making me hungry 😋)

I'm following you, so clearly I know you. Why am I drawing a blank here? Please help jog my (completely useless) memory. 😔

Hi. Do we know each other? Is this a new handle? Don't recognise it. 🧐

Omg those eyes 🥺😭

Monica from Secrets of the Silent Witch does it best.

Second the Firefox recommendation. I play music in the background using it all the time. It even works when you have your screen turned off. Just have to click play one additional time in the notification panel.

Long time! Good to see you active around these parts. More reason for me to stop by bsky. :)

A+ thread. Good progression, satisfying denouement. Would read again.

Inktober Day 4 – Endeavor from My Hero Academia The good drawing run continues! For day 4’s sketch, I decided to follow along with this excellent YouTube tutorial. When it comes to things like drawing, cooking, or any kind of art, really, …

Inktober Day 3 – Sett from Nina the Starry Bride Slowly starting to get better at this drawing thing again. Today’s is finally a sketch I’m not ashamed of. I didn’t quite get his face shape right and he therefore doesn’t l…

#Inktober Day 3 blog post featuring my best drawing yet, a bit about Nina the Starry bride, a bit about my favourite voice actor Uchiyama Koki and a bit of rambling.

Inktober Day 2 – Your Name (2016) First up, apologies for the awful drawing. I tried to do something new – used those oil pastels I mentioned yesterday – and I failed big time. Not sure if I’m supposed to, like, s…

Blog post featuring my (awful) #inktober day 2 drawing, which is from Your Name (2016), and the story of how I watched it and how it indirectly spurred my current anime obsession. (Day 3 drawing came out much better but I still need to write it up)

Inktober Day 1 – A sad beginning After a break of a couple(?) of years, decided to do Inktober again this year after a friend sent me the prompt list (thanks again, E!). I’m going to try and keep it anime-themed this year si…

Trying something new for #inktober this year. Hopefully rest of the month won't be as sad.

An ink, sketch pen & crayon drawing of the aforementioned emperor.

Inktober Day 1 - Prompt: Mustache

Supposed to be drawing of the Emperor from The Apothecary Diaries - proportions are a bit off though.

I'm sort of forcing myself to get out more. Went to some 4-5 nature walks last month (Madras Day events) and that helped hugely. Hoping to keep that momentum going. Let's see.

Dangerous question to ask. Saw it and literally logged for like a week. Alive, coping, struggling - take your pick. 🥲

Hi pere. I'll try to stop by now and then. All well with you?

Tried again and same shit. Right then. Tata.

Tried to QT a pic and bsky flipped out on me. What happened to this place?

Might as well put attendance here too

The US and UK will bomb Yemen for three reasons

A distraction from the #Gazagenocide trial against #Israel

To ensure that the genocide in #Gaza continues

A collective punishment for standing up against #IsraelApartheid
