Dec. 5th, 2025 12:25 ammeningiomai was thinking today, and god dammit being an anime fan used to mean something.
it used to be for LOSERS. i used to dream about anime becoming big, but now everyone is into it. but what have we gained besides more secondaries that bully actual otaku for le ebin twitter notifications?? theres still no doujin culture. whats the point?? art has got to get weirder and people have got to get more dedicated to making it because they love it. thats the biggest loss with ai stuff. now with every niche, people can just ai generate it and jerk off by themselves, instead of reaching out to an artist and jerking off with them. give me a time machine...

dw_newsHello, friends! It's about to be December again, and you know what that means: the fact I am posting this actually before December 1 means karzilla reminded me about the existence of linear time again. Wait, no -- well, yes, but also -- okay, look, let me back up and start again: it's almost December, and that means it's time for our annual December holiday points bonus.
The standard explanation: For the entire month of December, all orders made in the Shop of points and paid time, either for you or as a gift for a friend, will have 10% of your completed cart total sent to you in points when you finish the transaction. For instance, if you buy an order of 12 months of paid time for $35 (350 points), you'll get 35 points when the order is complete, to use on a future purchase.
( The fine print and much more behind this cut! )
Thank you, in short, for being the best possible users any social media site could possibly ever hope for. I'm probably in danger of crossing the Sappiness Line if I haven't already, but you all make everything worth it.
On behalf of Mark, Jen, Robby, and our team of awesome volunteers, and to each and every one of you, whether you've been with us on this wild ride since the beginning or just signed up last week, I'm wishing you all a very happy set of end-of-year holidays, whichever ones you celebrate, and hoping for all of you that your 2026 is full of kindness, determination, empathy, and a hell of a lot more luck than we've all had lately. Let's go.
