“Internalize the concept that git is designed to forget things. If you haven’t seen something reach another repository, maybe it didn’t. Heck, even if you did see it go somewhere else, maybe it fell out of the historical record there and then got garbage-collected.”
— How to use Git to lose data, by David A. Eckhardt, CMU CS ProfVividgreen Operation
One thing that’s always bugged me about the opening credits of Vividbutt Observation is Wakaba-chan’s kendo scene.
She’s swinging her bokken more or less horizontally, which means she’s hitting with the flat of the blade (foreshortening distorts it, but at best it’s at 45° to the target). Much, much worse, the curvature of the blade says she’s holding it the normal way, but the edge is up, and she doesn’t look anything like Rurouni Kenshin (fortunately).
Dear Funko,
I am deeply saddened to find no Funko Pop figurines of Pinky, Froppy, or Ruby Roundhouse. How can I keep my office safe without them?
Update
Well, when this comes out, I should be protected from any hostile force. Even idiot managers.

To make this one a bit of a challenge, I set some ground rules:
- no pervy crotch or ass shots.
- exclude age-inappropriate activities.
- include Hot Dark Girl Rei with her Kickass Scarf.
It wasn’t easy…
I think it's a hit...
Jumanji is still in over 2,500 theaters, and the Bluray pre-release (March 20) is #2 on Amazon in both the Comedy and Action/Adventure categories, and #7 in Movies/TV (any format).

Or, “y’know, her” (and friends). I kept seeing fan-art of this visually striking warrior babe with an odd face-mask and a penchant for thigh-high stockings. Thanks to the 50% off Steam sale on NieR: Automata, I now know that her name is 2B, her mission is slaughtering mechanical mooks, and her panties are air-cooled.
Pool closed tomorrow!
Found this in my junkmail folder. It must be really important to be sent to me in California, so I’m sharing it with you as well:
Dear Member,
Due to the adverse weather conditions, please be advised that the swimming pool at Royal Russell School will be closed to members on Saturday 3 March. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
Kind regards

This is a real boarding school about an hour south of London, and the
email went to my me.com email address, so it looks like I have yet
another evil twin who doesn’t know his iCloud email address, quite a
bit younger than the one in Boca Raton or the one in County Cork.
Prime time!
Well, Amazon Prime has my movie nights planned out for March:
- The Color Of Magic (season 1)
- Earth Girls Are Easy
- Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
- F/X
- F/X 2
- Hackers (just for the young Angelina Jolie, honest)
- I’m Gonna Git You Sucka
- big batch of Bond films
- Valerian (based on the reviews, “free” sounds about right)
Update
Attempted to watch Valerian last night. I had to stop, because everything about it was just dull. At first I thought, “is the guy trying to sound like Keanu Reeves on ’ludes?”, then I thought, “is the chick trying to sound like a zombie version of Android from Dark Matter?”.
In the end, I decided that Luc Besson had the entire cast snorting the herb Valerian, which is why they all talked like they were sedated.
I think I’d like to see stills of the CGI backgrounds, but they’d be too busy to use as wallpaper on my laptop. They were certainly too busy to enjoy on-screen.

No time yet to look at switching my posting script to use Pixiv or Danbooru URLs, so once more into the Gelbooru.
