Reminds me of this genuine photo of bison skulls from the late 1800s

The US government encouraged mass hunting of bison to force Native Americans to give up their way of life that depended on them and move to reservations where they would be "allowed" to live. Unless something valuable was discovered on that land later.

When colonists first started arriving there were upwards of 60 million bison in North America, traveling in vast herds that provided much of what various nomadic tribes needed to live on. At the lowest point in the late 1800s there were around 541 known animals in existence. Now there are around 500,000 in NA, the vast majority of which live on ranches and are farmed for meat. There are around 20,000 living on conservation lands.

It's great when dystopic defense contractors take names from the things I love! Palmer Luckey started one called Anduril, and I just can't tell you how much I love these fucking shits co-opting Tolkien's words in their endeavors to profit on oppression and murder.

Isekai Ojisan. it's a show about a nerd in his early twenties that gets isekai'd, then 10 years later comes back and talks to his nephew about his adventures. but he's a really weird dude, and makes utterly bizarre choices. I hesitate to use the word autism, but he's definitely not neurotypical. It's a funny show, I recommend it

didn't like Uzumaki

We can't be friends.

You should read it all, imo, but maybe focus on anthologies? Don't bother with No Longer Human, I don't think you'll like that one.

I also prefer the 2012 art to the modern style, but if Mike likes to draw the way he does now then good for him. He's clearly demonstrated his artistic prowess over the years and I'd guess wanted to make his own exaggerated style. It's definitely instantly recognizable as his
