IM PUERTO RICAN SO DONT PUT ME WITH THE EMINEMS

Im like 13 eps into Gundam IBO so far and have hella conflicting feelings about this series. Orga is possibly my favorite character in this franchise outright, and I'm a sucker for well done found family (doomed as it may be) so I've really enjoyed Tekkadan so far. On paper its straight up my fav Gundam, not to mention Barbatos' design is raw as hell. That being said, the writing is just not good a lot of the time and the more Gundam series I watch the more I feel that G Witch might be the only one in the history of this franchise with romance that DOESNT make me wanna turn my skin inside out. (Mikazuki kissing Kudelia made me sigh so loud dawg) I've got quite a few grievances but I'll save my full thoughts for when I've finished the series.

Freaky ass nigga he a 69 god

I finally finished up w/ Gundam IBO and ended up enjoying it a ton. I have complaints, its definitely a lot more "Anime™️" than what I typically watch as far as tropes go with like the harem ship and stuff but I just really liked the story it was trying to tell and the tragedy of Tekkadan's existence. I actually thought the mobile suit designs were pretty dope but that could be the result of them feeling Armored Core adjacent, and the OST was great. I was worried about season 2 going into things since I had heard complaints about it but I might even like it more than the first, the emphasis on showing the fallout of Tekkadan makes the commentary feel more complete, it was an interesting tidbit of info we got hearing that the group's success at the end of s1 "proved" the efficacy if child soldiers and in a roundabout way made things a lot worse though that specific aspect wasnt super explored. There's a lot I could say in regards to the story's themes and a ton to dissect but im lazy and my impression of the series rn was that it was a great ride. Also it was raw as hell and that's important for me.

Playing p3r in the rain, vibes are up rn.

Baylan Skoll is one of the best Star Wars characters in a long time, I'm very much one of those people that has only really been able to get enjoyment out of Andor and TLJ as far as live action sW goes these days, but there are some things I've really been enjoying about Ahsoka. First of all, the choreography is actually GOOD. It feels like there's a different rhythm to each battle due to various fighting styles being shown, we see guard switches in tense standoffs like with Ahsoka vs Baylan and its dope and reminds me of this series' kurosawa roots. Baylan is super interesting and I love how the mercenaries bounce off our main two chars. And I am Shin Hati's strongest soldier just on account of her being really cool I love and support evil women

Evil women are so cool I love women who are just bad people

Started playing NEO TWEWY since I finished up emulating the og on my 3ds a few weeks ago, im already liking it a lot. Music goes crazy which is to be expected by now, combat is fire (though I wish I could ramp up the difficulty) and Sho Minamimoto has grown on me a lot this time sround, hes dope asf now I think in large part due to his VA. And Nagi better back tha fuck up off my homie Fret I dont really appreciate how shes disrespecting my guy. I see the GOAT dripped out on the cover art hiding back there in corner as well, cant wait to see what hes been up to since the last game.

Kissinger.

US bombs dropped on Laos, 1964-1973. [Map published in article: Rosita Boland. "Death from below in the world's most bombed country." The Irish Times. 13 May 2017. Though map first uploaded on Redd/it by Andrew Gloe, as u/AJgloe, 12 September 2016.]

Laos. From 1964 to 1975, the US dropped over 2 million tons of bombs, equating to over 250 million bombs/ordinances. By some estimates, this averages as: full plane load of bombs dropped on Laos every 8 minutes, 24 hours a day, for 9 years. After the official end of the US military campaigns, US bombs on the ground continued to kill dozens of people every year for decades; the bombs still maim today, as over 80 million unexploded bombs/munitions still remain on the ground in Laos.

Cambodia. Kissinger was architect of the "Secret War", which the US president initially tried to hide from the public. Beginning in 1969, the US dropped over 2 and a half million tons of bombs at over 112,000 sites; over 11,000 sites were bombed indiscriminately. Most estimates suggest that US bombing of Cambodia directly resulted in hundreds of thousands of civilian deaths. On 17 March 1969, when the president's office received news of the first bombings in Cambodia, Nixon's chief of staff wrote in his diary: "Historic day K's [Kissinger's] 'Operation Breakfast' finally came off at 2:00 pm our time. K really excited, as is P [President]." The next day he added: "K's 'Operation Breakfast' a great success. He came beaming in [...]."
