Hey, some people are into leather.

The pharma-go-round is torture, even with a good doctor. With a doctor that doesn't listen, it's unbearable. Which means finding a new doctor and starting again. It's a vicious cycle. Glad you landed on something that works.

Sega does what Nintendon't.

It warms my old man heart to see the console flame wars still going strong. Tribalism, what a thing, lemme tell ya. Human nature at its naturist.

So, all the uploaders deserve a ban?

Plot twist: the toddler has a multi-year marketing push worth tens if not hundreds of millions, which convinced a lot of people who don't know the first thing about chess that it really is very impressive, and all those chess-types are just jealous.

5 seconds later

When the stack gets too big, you buy some shelving. When the shelving gets full, you buy some storage tubs. When you run out of tub room, you get a storage unit. When the storage unit is full, you realize maybe it's time to sell off the backlog. Then when you're almost done, your spouse gets into Gundam. And this time you start a spreadsheet to keep track of the cycle. Then P-Bandai opens in your region.

Huh, I didn't know people anyone even painted with baby oil.

 
 

Posting this as I was prompted by a memory in !metal@lemmy.world . 08th Team is one of my favorite Gundam shows, and Nightwish is one of my favorite bands. I think the editing here is top notch.

Hard to believe this came out ~20 years ago. Rubyeye, if you're still out there, cheers.

 

On a related note, I have successfully gotten my nephew into Gundam... but his 14 year old Transformers-obsessed brain simply refuses to accept that Optimus would get urfed by even a GM beam spray pistol, let alone a newtype snipe.

Nothing terribly exciting this week IMO. I like the color scheme of the First Lot RG Nu. Probably not enough to buy it though.

Heavy spoilers for Gundam X, plus a long-ish in-video ad for some licensed Gundam Seed gear. I wasn't expecting too much out of this but Kakarot's humor carried it for me. RIP Unit 3.
