Not even a full four months. And still we’re being told that this is humane, moral, and necessary. A kind of evil and brutality that would be hard to imagine if it wasn’t real and being treated as normal.

Seeing this a lot so worth a reminder: Seven Seas has been officially releasing The Ancient Magus' Bride for years. They are not involved in this simulpub situation and do not use AI. You can absolutely support the series legally without reading scans or AI.
Replying to @G0ffThew
Imagine paying over a million dollars for the license to a manga just to send the entire English fandom straight to the scanlators

hmm… if only there were a word to describe the act of deliberately “thinning out” an ethnic group confined in an open-air prison on its 17th year of an air, land, and sea blockade…
Netanyahu is shopping around a proposal to US Congressional leaders to “thin out” Gaza’s population and expel the surviving residents into neighboring countries. bit.ly/3Neo0xP

Alright, since you decided to ask me, I'll tell you why the same guy you praise for "wonderful analysis" also concludes, based on the facts & evidence, that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza:

THREAD. Something must be said about today’s irresponsible New York Times article about antisemitism. I can’t believe it was published.

Gazan poet Heba Abu Nada, who died yesterday in the bombardment.
This is one of poetry and novelist Heba Abu Nada interviews. She is reciting one of her poems. Heartbreaking.

A few Dragon Ball Super production examples to remember alongside the Akio Iyoku discourse today, many (most? all?) of which we have seen wildly misunderstood and misrepresented in various conversations: 🧵 (#/?!)
According to Bunshun Online, Dragon Room head honcho Akio Iyoku has stepped down from Shueisha and established his own company, Capsule Corporation Tokyo. Supposedly he wants Shueisha to keep DB’s manga publishing rights but for CC Tokyo to handle DB games/anime/etc.
