“It's gonna be the future soon”
If we make it to January…
…we get more Maomao. With luck, we’ll still have Western Civilization as well.
We’ll also get Behemoth…
TL/DR: half-nekkid busty elf and friends who really like her kitten. This is definitely based on the manga, since the light novels collapsed after only two volumes.
(unrelated half-nekkid busty elf chick is half-nekkid, busty)
Age-old problem
Massad Ayoob’s advice for people having trouble getting crisp front-sight focus with pistols as they get older is to have reverse bifocals custom-made, where the reading prescription is on the top. My eye doctor’s advice on Sunday was to just go to Amazon and buy stick-on bifocal lenses and optionally trim them to cover just the part of your glasses that you use for sighting.
Ayoob talks about using your reading prescription, but the doc recommended using a computer prescription (diopter = NV-ADD / 2, rounded up to nearest 0.25; add to Sphere for dedicated computer glasses). Of course, Ayoob was talking about wearing them out in public, while I just want want them on my range glasses (which are safety glasses from Zenni).
Another idea comes from Good Glasses, which recommends splitting your prescription, putting your computer prescription in the dominant eye and distance prescription in the other.
My concern with the stick-ons is based on my historical inability to get window film to cling properly with no bubbles, and some reviews I’ve read have matched that experience.
(in addition to the new prescriptions and shooting advice, he also had some interesting reloading recommendations for light revolver loads for kids)
(related, his office is attached to a Costco, and while I gather that in some states their stores post no-gun signs, that is not the case in Ohio)
Bye-Bye Earth, the novels
Translation of the first one coming in April. I don’t know if I’ll be willing to take one for the team, but it would be nice to find out if the adaptation was bad, or if the source material was incomprehensible dreck, too.
