Do you use any particular site to meet penpals? I've been thinking about it, maybe getting a PO box to make it more private - but I see a lot of stories of flaky pen pals that don't write back.
Kon Peki has never let me down, though I have been enjoying Robert Osters Sea Green lately too.
Oh nice, didn't know that was a community. I'll head on over.
Last time I checked, they were using DDOS Protection from Cloudflare which breaks all federation with them. Until that stops, it will not work.
I have a Kobo Libra 2, and it's what I use for at night reading or when I'm out and about. Otherwise I use my Supernote for the bigger screen and the notetaking capabilities. Naturally everything is organized through Calibre.
I can see your comment fwiw
A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin. I used the first book as a palate cleanser after finishing Blood Meridian. It's very whimsical and playful in many aspects but also builds out a beautiful world that you can definitely lose yourself in.
Pictures you can hear. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Even though I select "All" as my default type, it doesn't seem to populate anything after the second page of results? But if I click on "all" manually, I get all the pages. Otherwise, I'm just discovering things still, and exploring - which is fun!

For my watch history, I think https://kitsu.io/users/DiscoShrew is mostly up to date.
Though not being too old myself, I do gravitate towards older shows. My introduction to anime in general was through the Toonami programming block. Specifically Rurouni Kenshin and Yu Yu Hakusho. Naturally, my introduction to manga was Shounen Jump and Shojo Beat. (I'm still waiting for Nana to be finished! More than ten years later...)
I have a love for the earlier Gundam shows though holding that 08th MS Team may be my favorite. I love the beauty found in hand drawn anime, and much prefer it to the CGI stuff of today in most cases, though I'm not totally a luddite.
hear hear! I echo the appreciation for anything hand drawn and with Sels. One of my favorite anime, Legends of the Galactic Heroes - is beautifully rendered. (same with Rose of Versailles and many others of that era, Vampire Hunter D too!). I've been trying to find a production cell from them for ages, either that or Serial Experiments Lain.
Super cool that you could get a job in an industry you love and can appreciate.
Also, is it intentionally spelled aniime, or was that a typo in the forums name? Just curious

Nalgene covered in stickers, as was the style at the time. Somewhere around 5-6 years old at this point? Been through quite a lot.
