Bit of everything...

The Other World's Books Depend on the Bean Counter 1 (Kazuki Irodori/Yatsuki Wakatsu/Kikka Ohashi) - manga, read before and why I ended up getting the novels. I still have the last novel to finish (or, probably, a re-read of the whole series; it's only three books) and then maybe I'll get back to picking up the manga? BL isekai-gone-wrong series, does start off rather dubious.

Land of the Blindfolded 1-9 (Sakura Tsukuba) - from the box of manga I dragged home to read last November and then, uh, just put in the stacks. This is some vintage shoujo where the leads have supernatural powers. (In this case, being able to see the future/past at times.) A nice romance, and all the side bits with the puppy and turtle are cute. I'm debating keeping this one; I suppose I have a month to decide.

Disgaea 1-3 DVDs - the Disgaea anime is okay. It's certainly an adaptation, and it's enjoyable on its own but it also has moments perpendicular to the game but... (It kinda makes me want to replay the game, really?) I think this was out, originally, because my mother had wanted to watch it back before she decided she did not actually like the Prinny plush she'd adored for more than a decade. Anyway, she also did not like the anime and I suspect that was the beginning of the end for the plush, which I rescued.)

The Perilous Void (Jason Lutes/Keny Widjaja) - this is a TTRPG book to use for generating basically everything you need for Space Adventures. It's a joy to even skim through. I don't really have a dedicated tabletop shelf right now (or shelves, at this point) and need to rectify that somehow.

Mobile Suit Gundam Movie Trilogy - I think this was out because the boycritter isn't actually familiar with much Gundam/Universal Century.

Try Knights - I bounced off this the first time but enjoyed it on try no. 2 (lol). This is a sports anime about rugby, which I have no knowledge of and the series expects that of its audience and does its best to teach along the way. (I cannot say I understand much more, but-) Lots of pretty boys, lots of ship bait.

A pile of keepers this time (and debating for a bit on Land of the Blindfolded), surprisingly.

There's nothing quite like having a good old-fashioned yap session with your cat. Your feline plops down beside you, gives that knowing stare, and suddenly you're deep in conversation. From chirps to trills to dramatic meows that sound like full sentences, cats always seem to have a lot on their minds. Maybe they're sharing the latest birdwatching gossip, complaining about a slightly delayed dinner, or simply giving you an update on the mysterious hallway shadows.

Every sound feels like part of a secret language that somehow makes perfect sense. You respond in your best "meow," and they tilt their head like you've just said something profound. Before you know it, you're both chatting away, neither entirely sure what's being said but completely understanding each other.

Cats are natural conversationalists, blending sass, sweetness, and just a touch of judgment. They don't need words to get their point across, just perfectly timed meows and expressive whiskers. Whether they're demanding attention or just catching up, a chat with your cat always leaves you smiling and maybe even a little humbled by their purrsuasive charm.

https://cheezburger.com/42829829/i-guess-i-have-a-cat-now-cute-kitten-abandoned-at-dog-rescue-center-employee-agrees-to-only-foster

This is exactly why we don't foster cats - because we will 100% get attached to them, fall in love, and end up with 400 cats in our house. Especially if the foster is a kitten. We simply can't resist their purrfect pull, their gross (as in large) gravitation, their luscious love! When the time is right for us to get a new cat, we put a box outside and wait for the Cat Distribution System to deliver one to us. We'll leave fostering to the people with stronger hearts and wills than we.

But, if a tiny orange kitten were to show up at our workplace, who are we to say no to this chance occurrence of feline fate? That's what happened below, although it did show up at the opposite rescue center! Upon being found at a dog rescue center (only an orange would show up at a dog shelter and not a cat one), one employee offered to foster the cute kitty for a night or two until they found an alternative solution. They lasted longer than we would have, and after one night, they caved and decided to adopt the fuzzy feline for themselves. The ginger, now named 'Ziggy', gets along purrfectly with her pups and is living his very best happily ever after. See more of Ziggy below!

Happy meowrning, friends! Another incredibly long week is behind us, and it is finally time to take a break, take a breath, sit back and relax for a while. We don't think it has always been like this - where every week feels even crazier than the last. The need we have for wholesomeness and pawsitivity in our lives has grown a million times bigger than it was, and there is truly only one thing that can fill that need for us on a constant and consistent basis, and that is obviously funny cat memes.

Listen, there are very few things in the world that can make us smile unconditionally, but hissterical cat memes always can. There's something meowgical about silly cat memes like these, something that gets straight into our hearts and soul, something that makes us smile and laugh and just appreciate the little things in life. Maybe that is why the obsession that people have with cats on the internet only seems to grow, never lessen, because it's always pure, and it always makes us happy.

The Fantastic 4: First Steps (7/10)

I saw the 2005 and 2007 Fantastic 4 movies in theaters when they first came out but wasn't particularly interested in seeing the 2015 remake when it was released. Wasn't particularly interested in seeing this one either, though I also wasn't against seeing it with the family when someone floated the idea.

I found this much more interesting than the early 2000s versions, mostly because of the retro-futuristic aesthetic. (Though to be fair, I don't really remember much about the earlier versions.) I hadn't seen any trailers beforehand so it took me a moment to process what I was seeing. Very cool! The sisters and I were also all so enamored with Sue's maternity uniform. So, so cute!!

Two things I felt strongly about in this movie:

( Cut for mild spoilers. )

Random stuff:

I was hoping for more Ben/Rachel. I thought they were very cute!
Very much enjoyed the banter between Ben and Johnny.
Cackled that Sue would rather have a dude with literal rocks for skin catch her delicate newborn baby rather than her own brother. Is that supposed to imply that Johnny's super clumsy?
No strong feelings about Johnny/Shalla-Bal but wouldn't be opposed to seeing their relationship explored in a sequel (if we get one).

https://www.merriam-webster.com/word-of-the-day/veritable-2025-10-19

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for October 19, 2025 is:

veritable • \VAIR-uh-tuh-bul\ • adjective

Veritable is a formal adjective that means “being in fact the thing named and not false, unreal, or imaginary.” It is often used to stress the aptness of a metaphorical description.

// The island is a veritable paradise.

// The sale attracted a veritable mob of people.

See the entry >

Examples:

“The Roma are often described as an ethnic minority, but many Romani communities view ‘Roma’ as a broad racial identity, stretching all the way back to our Indian ancestry. Indeed, to look at the Roma as one ethnicity is to disregard the veritable mosaic of Romani subgroups. There’s a thread that holds us all together, which to me feels like a string of fairy lights scattered across the world. Each of these lights shines with its own unique beauty.” — Madeline Potter, The Roma: A Traveling History, 2025

Did you know?

Veritable, like its close relative verity (“truth”), came to English through Anglo-French from Latin, ultimately the adjective vērus, meaning “true,” which also gave English verify, aver, and verdict. Veritable is often used as a synonym of genuine or authentic (“a veritable masterpiece”), but it is also frequently used to stress the aptness of a metaphor, often with a humorous tone (“a veritable swarm of lawyers”). In the past, language commentators objected to the latter use, but today it doesn’t draw much criticism.

Having somewhat wiped out my reserves with the glories of Corporation Beach, I only made it out to the salt marsh for about an hour between low tide and sunset, which was still great. I saw the copper-glaze glint of fiddler crabs in their burrows in the crenellated banks of mud. I saw the dark-fringed silhouette of an osprey sailing over the green-rusted brushes of cordgrass and salt hay, where they nest with the encouragement of the Callery Darling Conservation Area which includes the wetlands around the Bass Hole Boardwalk. The engine noise floating over from Chapin Beach turned out to belong to a powered paraglider who so annoyed me by effectively buzzing the boardwalk that I let all the other sunset viewers with their phones out enthusiastically take pictures of him. The long-billed, long-legged, unfamiliarly tuxedo-patterned shorebird stalking the deeper edges of a sandbar looks to have been a vagrant black-necked stilt. With the tide so far out, I am afraid there was little chance of another seal.

( Take a little comfort from the little you've done. )

After which I ate dinner, read a little, and passed out for about an hour and a half. Family and friends have been sending me pictures of No Kings, the necessity of which I hate and the turnout of which I cheer. My mother told me about her favorite sign she did not carry: a photograph of the butterfly, the only orange monarch we need. I loved everything about the spare, specific exploration of marginalized languages and historical queerness in Carys Davies' Clear (2024) until the slingshot of the ending as if the author had lost a chapter somewhere over the side in the North Sea. Since the Cape is still autumnal New England, I am drinking mulled cider.

1. It got sunny and warm later in the day, but this morning when I took my usual neighborhood walk and then later walked to the farmers market was actually very pleasant. I didn't get hot and sweaty at all!

2. We had a nice lunch at Disneyland, though I definitely felt the sun then! Sunblock and a hat did what they could, but the UV... D:

3. Seeing all the photos of the No Kings protests today is so heartening. They're saying an estimated seven million people, which is more than the ones earlier this year!

4. Jasper loves hanging out on this sofa when we watch TV.

First of all, relax! I'm far from being picky, and I can pretty much guarantee that I'll love whatever you decide to create for me. These are nothing but guidelines, for you to take to heart or ignore to your heart's content. Also, hey! You're writing me fic or drawing me art! That's automatically a good reason for me to love you, no matter what. So, please, keep that in mind. Trust me, you can pretty much do no wrong. ♥

Viable Paradise is about to begin, which means hunkering in the bunker.

But today the weather was perfect for the protest gathering at a very busy five-points intersection here on Martha's Vineyard, with A LOT of people and some winsomely unique signage. Lots of laughter and horn honking, and although there were two protesters for the current regime, and a couple of cars went by with passengers waving thumbs down, there was no violence whatsoever. Yay! I wish that would be true everywhere.

Interesting patterns in signage; many quotes from the Bible and from the Constitution, and so very many crowned clowns. One frog, one unicorn, and a bee. Many, but not all, were my age or older.
