That was my thought as well.

The CTO at my last job was pulling down millions a year despite barely knowing anything about anything, and being little more than a glorified bully. He got there via project management, after all.

…eh, close enough.

Our washer died a couple of months ago so we had to hit the laundromat for awhile. Brought our own detergent of course, but we also got the dregs of whatever the last dozen or so people poured into the dispenser. It was like histamine roulette that landed on 00 suspiciously often.

I resemble that remark.

Hyperlinks are a liberal psy-op. I’ll only click regular links.

Any word on if cross-platform multiplayer will be supported? Would love to play with my nephew but he’s a PlayStation kind of guy.

That was absolutely beautiful.

I make it easy for people.

“Start at the beginning and watch in production order. A bunch of stuff happens between/during those early entries but it’s all essentially retcon, save it for when you have the context. It’ll be more impactful.”

But it’s so olllllllllllld I can’t watch this!

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ That’s my advice, do what you want with it.

slice of life, feel good

Gundam

Gundam doesn’t really fit those descriptors at all 😅 But… there is the Build Fighters series, which takes place in near-future real-world. It focuses on fans of Gundam model kits, and technology that scans the kits and lets them battle. It’s not slice of life, but it’s (mostly) kids and low-stakes conflict revolving around competition.

Opinions vary on which entries are the strongest or weakest, but IMO the first entry (Build Fighters) is fantastic, and really nails the whole fan enthusiasm feel. A lot of the references are going to be lost on people who aren’t already fans of the franchise, but it executes on the shonen format well enough to stand on its own.

Edit: Honorable mention for slice of life goes to The Witch From Mercury, which made a lot of people very angry for hitting some of those notes early on.

I’m, uh, just gonna go back and grab a coat real quick.
