Current mood. Short post this week. Just not feeling it. My company wants to pile even more responsibilities onto my plate again, but when will I get a new job title and thus increased compensation? TBD! It’s funny how salary is always the last thing on the list for them to figure out. If you’re curious what I do for a living, let’s just say there’s a kanban board and lots of bad pull requests that are never thoroughly tested. But I digress. Hopefully, I can catch up on my weeb shows next week.
Chio’s School Road Ep. 9
Chio pole-dancing outta nowhere is probably the funniest moment so far in this entire series. Then Ando shows up, and I’m back to being semi-bored.
Grand Blue Ep. 8
Crabs in a bucket waste their lives cock-blocking each other.
Overlord III Ep. 9
Jircniv goes to apologize to Ainz in person (by pinning the blame on someone else), and it’s just one big dick-measuring contest for Nazarick. Oh my God, he’s got everything! Wealth, power, status, and hot babes. Especially the hot babes. Then afterwards, we do the same tired song-and-dance where Ainz’s sycophants think that he’s smarter than he really is:
Demiurge: You fools! Did you simpletons really think that this is all there is to Ainz-sama’s brilliant plans?!
Everyone including Ainz: Eh?!
Ainz: Ahem, w-w-why don’t you tell everyone what my true intentions are?
Demiurge: I’m not worthy, but if you insist, Ainz-sama!
Like I’m not even exaggerating. This is exactly what happens. The problem, however, is that this has also happened countless times before. Nothing ever seems to change on this front. The only thing that does seem to change is humanity’s oh-so-slow realization that they need to do something about their burgeoning Ainz problem. Unfortunately, man has only ever managed to kill gods that have never existed in the first place.
Anyways, can’t root for Ainz, but I can’t root for Jircniv either. What to do, what to do…

I watched the first season of Overlord, but did not pick up the 2nd… Nothing I’ve seen has convinced me this was a mistake.
