you forget she is fueled by justice and determination, my gramma made it to 92 after almost giving up to a pretty bad heart attack in her mid-80s out of sheer determination and spite after she heard a couple of my aunts and uncles arguing over who got what from the house when she died right outside her hospital room…

there’s a few left trying and going mostly unnoticed, the fraction and aja Hawkeye books were amazing, and the squirrel girl books were good until things started getting meh because of interference from higher-up. companywide though it’s a problem they have yet to address properly, and mishandling of properties and…

we have historic landmarks that old too, there’s a UNESCO world heritage site called Cahokia Mounds that is right outside st louis that is the remains of a massive stone and earthwork city dated back to the year 800-1400. people tend to forget america has a history that predates european arrival and the naming of the…

google the Cahokia Mounds, they’re the remains of a massive city full of massive earthwork and stone structures in north america, and they’re not the only pre-colombian (year 800-1350 estimated inhabitation) city existing in north america. for the most part the oldest structural remains of our past are ignored in…

that depends on whether you’re willing to count the remains of the native american mound cities, the massive stone and earthwork pyramids and animal sculptures in ohio and other places in the midwest, and other structures still left in america predating european arrival by more than a few thousand years. People kind…

I’m running the same version of chrome, and mine just has a toggle option in the menu dropdown on youtube already and has for quite a while. look in where the dropdown from your avatar icon opens the menu with your channel info and options about halfway down. mine actually says “dark mode: off” with an arrow toggle…

it’s really not a secret, mine actually has a toggle option for it right in the menu dropdown section on Youtube in Chrome. It’s been there for quite a while actually.

If you would like to know an interesting fan theory that’s been batted around the net for a while, it is believed that HotD was also a bit of a ‘love letter’ and nod to Kouta Hirano, creator of Hellsing, as not only is there a character named for him that resembles him physically who is an otaku and gun nut much like…

it actually might not be, it depends on who has the permissions and owns the actual copyrights. Japanese copyright laws are different than most places (which is how the fancomic/doujinshi market gets away with so much). depending on the publisher they’re working through, sometimes artists and writers can actually not…

Yep, and their entire family is named after underwear, much like there’s an entire family named after kitchen utensils, and other people named after food and household appliances, and even a few named for slang terms for body parts (like poor Chi-chi). The theory has been for many many years that Toriyama didn’t feel…

my 90+ year old slovak-descended grandmother voted for Obama the first time, and actually cried when he won. it was the last election she got to vote in, and it pains me to say i’m almost glad she’s no longer around to see what has happened in just this last year and especially the past few months. That Man is…

A big part of the package size to price problem is that they think they can charge more for less by presenting themselves as a higher-end product by making the fancy special types. Another part of the reason is their aggressively killing off every single competitor, clone, and potential knockoff recipe as they find…

An associate brought packs of the swedish fish oreos to a convention we were staffing as a surprise for people to try because they weren’t being carried in most of our home areas. Those of us foolish enough to give them a try still had the aftertaste over an hour later.

The smell triggers something in sense memory…
