This doesn’t do much for me with 50% hearing loss in one ear, but kinda cool

The Delta Club in Seattle has oddly mediocre food, IMHO. At least compared to LAX and JFK...

New on the MediaOCD blog... While revisiting an old favorite of mine, I stumbled upon the legacy of an animator who left an indelible impact on the entire anime industry. In today's edition of Beside Myshelf, I pay tribute to the great Yasuo Ohtsuka. mediaocd.com/beside-myshe...

Without Yasuo Ohtsuka, there'd be no Castle of Cagliostro... or a Studio Ghibli.

They're back. We took them down due to a potential logistical issue but it should be OK now.

Our discs ship with the slipcovers packaged separately in a plastic sleeve to protect against damage.

Vampire Princess Miyu will start to ship when the new slipcovers arrive on Wednesday. There are over 2000 packages to ship, so it’ll take the warehouse several days to chug through all of them. Should all ship before the release date of 10/11.

On audiobook five of Dungeon Crawler Carl. This appears to be the year of nerdy niche lit categories breaking containment, and I am here for it. Also I now mentally announce “NEW ACHIEVEMENT!” to myself whenever I accomplish something dumb.

Join me in celebrating the tenth anniversary of my #1 anime movie of all time. It's a nuanced masterpiece that deftly delves into the complexities of disability, bullying, guilt, depression, suicidal thoughts, and ultimately redemption. And it's gorgeous. www.fandompost.com/2026/09/24/t...

Frame stitch of a recap illustration of Sasuke, holding a Kokeshi doll, the remains of the ninja who gave it to him littering the ground. From episode 2 of the 1968 anime TV series Sasuke (サスケ)

Pencil and watercolor illustration of a boy standing in the distance, a shocked expression on his face, while a dismembered leg and arm lay on the ground before him.

Portrait-oriented vertical frame stitch of several screenshots from episode 2 of the 1968 anime TV series Sasuke, composited to look like a single consistent image.

A friend of mine in film school had a night job as the bellman for Duncan Sheik’s building. Said he was super nice, and he’s often invite him up to do blow. Y’know, in retrospect… 🤔

Justin Sevakis @worldofcrap.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

I'm going to MIPCOM, the big content trade show next month, where I will inevitably be approached by a bunch of tech bros offering AI dubbing and subtitling. I will then smile very large, look them in the eye, and say that I would rather shit directly into my own hands and eat it.

I'm still new at this, but I would think, if I was trying to attract investors, I would be trying to tell a growth story and pointing out how uniquely positioned we are to tap into an underserved market or something.

They put it up on the service, but with no marketing and no ready made inventory, it’s possible nobody bought any, so none were made

AD Police may be awash in boobs, but at least the sette was kind enough to include shirtless twunk Leon.

It really is a major differentiating factor for them these days, especially considering how much crapware telemetry is built into Windows 11.

Obvs every streaming platform tracks you, and Apple has its share of data gathering, but so far it seems the spying is mostly kept to a minimum. And nobody spies on you like LG. They're by far the worst.

Justin Sevakis @worldofcrap.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

Finally bought an AppleTV for my office TV display. Every modern TV now spies on you to a shocking degree (incl video from other sources, and mics even when it's off), so turning its internet off and using a device with better security seemed like a no-brainer. Also the interface is WAY better.

Laserdisc player died. Totally dead, won't power on. Fuse is fine. The only place I could find that would repair it held onto it for 3 months without giving me an estimate. If anyone knows a place, hmu, I'm resigned to buying another player.

Halfway through the third Dungeon Crawler Carl audiobook, and I'm now 90% convinced this is an analogy for late stage capitalism
