Everything in this blog is sick and I want it. Except the banner, who the fuck cares about a banner.

Are these promoted somewhere before they happen? I feel like I always find out about them in a post about the results, which is a shame because I like Connor.

I think it's to give the top women a platform, for young girls to see people like them on the TV and make them believe they can do it too. If enough young girls start playing and keep playing, there should be plenty of female players that can compete with the best men in short order. There are also women's titles that have lower requirements than men's. It's a pretty controversial thing; some women refuse to take the "lesser" WGM title over the open IM title.

I'm not saying this works or I agree with it, but that's the thinking.

It's called the Peter Principle.

Pick and Shovel from mlm, or Coil from Zulrah. What bangers.

This attitude on here is really annoying. Starting a community is a big time commitment if you want it to be moderated and run effectively. A lot of us don't have the time to do that, no matter how much we want the platform to succeed.

RIP Gigi, she looked like a sweetheart. She's very lucky she had you to spend her life with ❤️

His little baby face is adorable!

This, so much. Especially if you cook short grained rice like sushi, makes it almost impossible to fuck up.

Some bosses have high ticket drops, some have consistent money drops. Having both would be broken.

I don't think the dirty air issue is solved as much as you think it is. It looks better than it used to, but you can see in situations where drs is disabled that following close is still pretty difficult unless you're Max Verstappen.

The FIA are finding it really difficult to tune the drs zones though. Passing either seems guaranteed or impossible most of the time, haven't seen much happy middle ground. Maybe they could invest in some better simulation software to make their guesses better.

"Science fiction" is kind of broad, most anime has elements of science fiction because the medium (i.e. not being real) lends itself to more fantastical ideas. I upvote others recommendations for steins gate and cowboy bebop, here are some offbeat recommendations.

If you like emotional anime, I really enjoyed Plastic Memories. The last couple of episodes especially really hit me, the running theme of the agency having non-human employees is kinda interesting.

Serial Experiments Lain is a psychological horror thriller type thing with very heavy sci fi elements. Considering it's from the 90s, it's commentary on the internet is surprisingly relevant these days. A bit artsy and kind of disappears up its own arse sometimes like Eva, but really interesting regardless.

Wonder Egg Priority is kind of sci-fi, tbh I don't know where sci-fi ends and fantasy starts, but I really enjoyed it. Just forgive it for the fucking dire ending, I think they ran out of budget, which is a shame. Kind of a "monster of the week" setup with cool action. Killer soundtrack too.

Finally, Eden of the East is a series I'll always recommend. A mystery/thriller series where a group of people have access to a concierge that can basically do anything and they have a vague mission to "change the world". Borderline sci -fi because of the heavy use of technology as a plot device. Also has an underwhelming ending, but the rest is top tier.
