workplace discussion,
and someone I’d just met there was like "I’ve been dealing with this sort of thing for seven years; this will work."

Meanwhile, I was thinking, "I’ve been working in this field since 2012, that’s 14 years,
and I don't feel like this is going to work well. But sure."

Maybe I’ve just gotten too old to keep up with the changing times.

Call it comic, manga, picture book, or graphic novel.
Sure, call it whatever you want.

But when someone calls an audiobook 'graphic audio'
I'm like,

As I was preparing for this year's summer hike, I realized that I had apparently lost my 5 years' worth of Fuji climb souvenirs while I was moving.
Can't remember where I put them.

I felt so devastated.

Moving is done. House is clean. Project is completed. Business trips are over. The conference wrapped up, too.
Now I can read manga again.
Wonder how many pages of updates I've missed?

80 pages.

Yep, I'm never catching up.

My new place has many stray cats poking around, which makes me quite happy.

But then I noticed that many of them are sneezing a lot. So, that makes me concerned that this place is not as healthy as I originally thought.

"Mii-chan and Yamada-san" is getting an anime?

I haven't read it again since I made that post last year.
And it's ending too?
I need to catch it up.

Yuri manga How Do We Relationship is getting a TV drama adaptation, and I saw that the two lead are training on the guitar and bass for their roles.

I think that's really cool, especially since it's not even a music-focused story like K-ON! or Bocchi where the VAs underwent similar training.

Visiting my old uni, and I can't help but notice that the lecture slides I made as a TA when I was doing my PhD almost a decade ago are still being used today.
On one hand, I'm flattered that my slides are considered that good they keep using them.
On the other hand, has nothing been updated at all?
Man, those slides are pre-COVID.

Haven't read manga in almost a week, I'm totally feeling a manga deficiency.
Made time to read a few chapters on a packed train,

Man, I need to stop wasting money on sketchy food and drinks just out of curiosity.
But Japan loves changing up packaging and dropping a new flavor quirk every few months,
leaving me intrigued by the new designs to try them,
making me question myself whether I've actually tried it before,

only to make me remember that it tasted like shit.

Months and months ago I filed reports, twice in fact, to tell MD that
hey this manga is not finished yet, don't mark it as completed, I have a copy of the manga, there's another volume is coming out next year.
Rejected.
Oh well, it's whatever, not the end of the world, nobody cares.
nobody else but me, maybe.

Now that the next volume has come out, and another one is scheduled for next year,
MD finally decided to change the status information,
So yeah, to whoever rejected my reports,
....
....
f*cking told you.

Almost had a heart attack while jogging this afternoon.
As I passed through a dark, quiet parking lot, I didn't notice a woman sitting inside the only parked car.
As I approached, a light from inside the car illuminated her from below, revealing a head obscured by long, wavy hair
(probably from a smartphone or something).

Fucking hell, old lady. I thought a Japanese yokai had finally appeared!

I know typhoons are a disaster, especially double ones.
But I won't lie, I kind of like this situation.
It's summer, but the air is still cool.

After listening to the Harry Potter full-cast audiobook while jogging these past few months,
finished them twice, all seven volumes, back-to-back,
I still haven't found another audiobook I want to listen to.

For some reason, I'm no longer interested in other Western fantasy books anymore,
and I absolutely can't listen to Japanese fantasy LNs with non-anime voices.

Now, my jogging time feels so empty.

Three days in a row, it started raining the exact second I finished my morning run.
It is as if God knew I was out there jogging and waited until I stepped inside the house before letting it drizzle.

Well, not three calendar days in a row. I skipped Friday, so three consecutive jogging days!

I noticed over the last few days that there seems to be a bug in the latest update section on the front page, which causes the list to not update correctly when compared to the latest updates page.

Or is it just me?

This manga is so infuriating.
Like, it's so stupid, but I can't exactly pass it off as unrealistic, because I've seen these kinds of people with my own two eyes.
The story itself is just the classic karma/comeuppance trope.
Something to read if you want to increase your blood pressure.

But what's interesting is, in the 2nd arc, it's like they tried to make the antagonist, the shitty person from the 1st arc as the protagonist.
That is new.
