Millennial (sorry) with AuDHD (not sorry). Jungle Asian. A volleyball anime saved my life, a guy with a giant duck thing made it better; both made me cringe af. Red panda on the other place. Probably your only Melanau friend.

This is Skittles, she's an 11-year-old literal scaredy cat and got me through some of the worst times of my life.

Please dear God, have a local Hyacine cosplayer buy this and throw it at people

Picture me in a supermarket furtively taking a photo of a loaf of bread and then DM-ing multiple people about the bread (it's new, and from a favourite brand of quite a lot of my friends). Anyway here's the bread.

So I finished my antibiotics but I feel like the thing is was supposed to address is still somewhat there. If I have to take another course of antibiotics I am going to Riot! At The Hospital*

(* By this is mean Dissociate! In The Ridiculously Fancy Lobby, pictured below)

She with the expensive af problems. Just spent 400+ ringgit on specialised cat food and another 300+ on supplements because she needs to be on them for a while after her surgery.

I like Gintoki and I like Katsura BUT I LOVE THEM MORE TOGETHER
November 17, 2025 at 1:51 PM
Apart from the bit in the opening where Gintoki wakes up from a nightmare, this is the first glimpse we have of Gintoki's PTSD.
November 17, 2025 at 1:51 PM
YOU KNOW IT'S GOING TO BE GOOD WHEN KATSURA SHOWS UP (I'm not biased at all)
November 17, 2025 at 1:43 PM
I feel like Gintama does get better as the person who watches it gets older; I've watched the show before and don't remember finding Gin relatable, let alone attractive. NOW THOUGH?
November 17, 2025 at 1:43 PM
Actually ykw a friend dropped off a few packs of red kolo mee and I decided to have one for lunch (the rest are in the freezer). Here's Ushijima!
November 16, 2025 at 6:47 AM
Before I get back on my Gintama watch, here's a little Haikyuu breather. I also have an Ushi one of these now but I didn't have him with me yet when I was at dinner.

Don't talk about your dad that way, Shinpachi!

So I'm starting a prescription skin thing (no, not Accutane) and was looking up suggestions on reddit about what to change in my current skincare routine. There were VERY detailed descriptions of routines and someone wrote this (ACCURATE BTW):

This feels like that time Burnout Syndromes came for a convention; I love the music but I really, really hate local ACG convention crowds (let's just say I live in a very hot and humid country and the stereotype of lacking hygiene if you're into ACG is sometimes true)

You can't say Gintama doesn't know its audience (people who like Men With Issues™, but also cute things).

Have been struggling healthwise so haven't been updating this thread, but Mr. Raindrop is one of my firm favourite EDs in all the anime I've watched, and I love this shot at the end of Elizabeth and Katsura.

#RinWatchesGintama, week 2! We're starting to get to the serious episodes now.

Also being big into Haikyuu for the longest time has skewed my perception of character heights because I looked at this and was like, "Wow, Gin's short" HE IS NOT LOL he's average height-ish (Ennoshita's height-ish).

The stalker-pervert is the chief of the Shinsengumi btw

I think anyone who has known me long enough to be aware of my proclivities when it comes to fictional men will not be surprised that I briefly thought Hijikata was hot.

Also I think if you're plotting to overthrow any government, the karaoke is the perfect place for it because no one can hear you.
November 9, 2025 at 2:53 PM
Literally me at ACG conventions, especially if there's a concert or vtuber event.
November 9, 2025 at 2:31 PM
This is how I talk about Skittles sometimes
November 8, 2025 at 5:53 PM
Leaving the two teenagers to fend off gangsters on their own while he searches everywhere for a copy of Shounen Jump. Priorities.
November 8, 2025 at 5:32 PM
I forgot that Gintoki and Shinpachi met Kagura because Gintoki ran her over while he was lamenting about not being able to buy that week's edition of Shounen Jump. Also I think it's cute that Shinpachi now has a helmet of his own. Gin is good weirdo uncle material.
November 8, 2025 at 5:13 PM
Gintoki is a broke-ass slob with eyes like a dead fish and PTSD and other issues but at least he can bake AND ice a cake (my standards are low but they are still standards).

Also he has nice abs (that he doesn't really show but whatevs) and a scooter and a chronic-but-reluctant need to help people.

Once again a reference that absolutely dates this show lol
