Man... I haven't played World of Warcraft since maybe 2013. I got an expansion (Shadowlands) through an AMD promo a few years ago but logged in for all of 30 minutes before forgetting about it. I still kinda play FFXIV though... moreso I sub every couple months to keep my house.

NFL games in Europe are kinda nice but 14 hours of football every Sunday is just too damn much. I did end up watching the end of the Texans game before Eagles/Cowboys; that team is really coming along. I'm not sure what to make of the NBA season so far. Sixers are doing really nicely, while the jury is still out on a lot of stars that switched teams. I used to have a soft spot for the Clippers but that's pretty much gone now after the Harden trade. I'm morbidly curious how that experiment will work out though. A lot of teams sacrificed depth for stars so we'll see how that goes.

Are you still watching Kimizero? I couldn't get into any of the romcoms this season which is sort of unusual. 16bit Sensation has probably been the surprise of the season.

Josh Harris had a fire sale yesterday and now James Harden is finally gone, while the Commanders seem to starting "the process" of their own. Chase Young to the 49ers has me a bit concerned but we'll see. LA strip clubs better make the most of 2023, cause there's no way Harden is getting paid what he thinks he's worth in 2024. I doubt anyone else in the league will want him either.

I'm only checking box scores for the World Series but I honestly questioned whether the Phillies could beat the Rangers for a while now and Arizona is pretty deep in the hole against them. We'll see I suppose.

Oh yes. Some nice pictures out there. The show seems to be even more popular than I thought.

All I really know is that the reputation is very good, and I haven’t read any comments too worried about the age thing (maybe it’s less in years than it appears to be?). I do know that figure skating - like ballroom dancing - is going to be very tricky to convey with a TV animation budget.

Apothecary is 24 eps, and I haven’t heard anything about it being a split cour. I will say that the batch of new series announcements over the past two months has been pretty awful, but there certainly is some good already announced stuff coming up in 2024.

Pretty good. I really liked the Apothecary diaries' first three episodes.

I was kinda impressed that the Ravens held the Lions to almost nothing. Eagles D looks vastly improved even with a banged up secondary. Allen seems to be hitting his limit in Buffalo. I have no idea what's going on in the ALCS right now but it is going to game 7.

I'm so sick of hearing about the 1972 fins but that was a painful game to watch regardless. As far as injuries Lane Johnson has some kind of ankle issue, hopefully just a high ankle sprain or something but we'll see.

I'm not the biggest baseball fan but I am a hometown team fan so I'll see how the Phillies do. Not sure what to make of the Diamondbacks...

KimiZero? I checked the first dozen chapters of the manga and it was some of the worst garbage I've ever read. I'm surprised you're enjoying it, but I guess it wasn't so bad at the beginning.

It's going well. Lots of shows to like, and there is Frieren that is an absolute gem. It's the kind of show I love.

Its pretty much always rewarding to watch the Cowboys lose. Lions, Niners, and Eagles probably the top of the NFC right now. I was hopeful the Vikings could upset KC but no such luck. Their season is still in the toilet for now.

Kinda surprised you took to KimiZero, I have had the opposite experience. I haven't picked up any romcoms this season, and barely any isekai either. Its kind of a weird season, nearly everything I turn on is an edgy power fantasy. I'll see if it improves.
