Ephemeral

Fleeting short posts.

  • Every day it’s looking more and more like the two democrat Senators from Arizona (Kelly and Gallegos) are rubber stamps for Republicans.

    As an Arizonan, it’s frustrating to see both senators ignore the will of those who voted for them.

  • Me when it’s time to adult.

    Markl from Howl’s Moving Castle putting on his old man disguise.
  • In the gathering darkness
    we shine our light.
    Neighbors lighting a
    path for each other.
    Steady we move, afraid and unsure, but hopeful and joyful too.
    Awake and aware of
    pain and suffering.
    Miraculously mending the fragile fabric frayed by hate.
    Our actions today, build the future and set the past.
  • Season 2 of «Ishura» is turning out to be a really good anime. Season 1 was all over the place, with a large cast of characters that didn’t always deliver.

    Season 2 is tightening the story and characters, and giving a more focused anime. Glad I stuck through the first season and seeing a better S2.

  • Happy Lunar New Year! Year of the Snake! 🐍

    This year I’m shedding everything that doesn’t serve me.

    I told chat about it, and here’s what happened.

  • «Promise of Wizard» — my fluff anime of the season — surprised me tonight with a bit of dialogue that felt relevant to what’s presently happening in the US.

    “That’s what they’d do. First it’s fear, then confusion, then they go straight to violence.”

    Scene from the anime “Promise of Wizard”. In this GIF, the character Faust, a wizard dressed in green robes and green hat, talks about how humans attacked the wizard tower. He says: “That’s what they’d do. First it’s fear, then confusion, then they go straight to violence.”​
  • An epiphany I had today:

    Threads – easy to join, easy to get into.

    Bluesky – easy to join, harder to get into.

    Fediverse – easy to join, hardest to get into.

    Easy to join = Easy to sign up.

    Easy/Hard to get into = Easy to find people, communities, and conversations.

  • 11 PM on a Saturday night.

    Me crying because of episode four of «Medalist».

  • Power Rangers + Konosuba = The Red Ranger Becomes an Adventurer in Another World.

    I wasn’t sure I was gonna like this anime, but it had me laughing with its ridiculous humor.

  • I’ve been enjoying «Sorairo Utility». An anime about a girl learning to play golf.

    Minami gets fired up at the driving range.
