A Brighter Outlook on Wellbeing: My Positive Experience with Claritox Supplement
My family has always prioritised natural health solutions, so when a close relative started experiencing concerning fluctuations in their cognitive function, we embarked on a dedicated research journey to find a safe and effective supplement. After meticulously exploring various options, we came across Claritox Supplements - Health, and the positive testimonials, coupled with the product's focus on natural ingredients, convinced us to give it a try.
Improved Cognitive Performance
One of the most noticeable changes observed after consistent use of Claritox Supplements was a significant improvement in cognitive performance. My relative reported feeling sharper and more focused throughout the day. Tasks that previously required significant concentration seemed less daunting, and their overall mental clarity improved considerably. This newfound mental agility translated into a renewed sense of confidence and a more positive outlook on daily activities.
Enhanced Memory and Recall
Another welcome benefit experienced was a noticeable enhancement in memory and recall. Previously misplaced items were easily located, and remembering names and dates became significantly easier. This improvement in memory function was particularly encouraging, as it indicated a potential reversal of the concerning cognitive decline that had initially prompted our search for a solution.
Natural and Safe Ingredients
A major factor that influenced our decision to choose Claritox Supplements was the product's commitment to natural ingredients. We were wary of synthetic solutions and their potential side effects. Claritox, on the other hand, boasts a blend of herbs, vitamins, and minerals carefully chosen to support cognitive health. This transparency regarding the product's ingredients instilled a sense of trust and made us feel confident about including it in my relative's health regimen.
Overall Wellbeing and Positive Impact
Beyond the specific cognitive improvements, Claritox Supplements also seemed to contribute to a general sense of well-being. My relative reported feeling more energised and experiencing better sleep quality. These positive changes likely stemmed from the product's holistic approach to brain health, addressing not just cognitive function but also the overall well-being that underpins it.
In Conclusion
Our experience with Claritox Supplements has been overwhelmingly positive. The product delivered noticeable improvements in cognitive function, memory, and overall well-being. The focus on natural ingredients provided peace of mind, and the observed results solidified our confidence in the supplement's effectiveness. If you're searching for a natural solution to support cognitive health, we highly recommend considering Claritox Supplements.

really really enjoyed your article on hazbin hotel. have been hearing about it for years, but did my active best to learn literally nothing substantial–until your article. even all the incredible bigotry aside, it's shocking to me just how...messy the show seems to be? i've never, EVER heard of a show where you're expected to have fandom and pilot knowledge ahead of time. that's nuts. cannot fathom how it all got approved with such a massive budget & cast given how Clearly Haphazardly put together it is. anyway. great article, spread it to a few friends, your writing was really engaging and drew me in 👍
I ended up not talking about this in the piece because it was already more than long enough, but I do wonder if the messy writing could partially be a result of A24 being a bad match for the project. Because, you know. A24 is not an animation distributor. This was the first animation project they funded.
Obviously I wasn't a fly on the wall at Spindlehorse and this is pure speculation, but based on the show itself it does feel like A24 looked at the millions and millions of views the pilot had on YouTube and went "Well, you guys clearly know what you're doing! We'll stay out of your way." When in reality, like I said in the review, what I think the show really needed was just an experienced cartoon showrunner on hand who could gently nudge things in the right direction and help them nail down basic TV writing stuff. Not calling the shots, but just looking over Vivzie's shoulder with feedback like "Does this episode have a satisfying three-act structure?" or "Could you explain this worldbuilding detail a little more clearly?" or "This episode doesn't have a clear enough focus on its central emotional arc." I have to wonder if a studio with an actual history making cartoons could have more easily hooked Hazbin up with someone like that.
(Some of the work on Hazbin was also done by Bento Box Entertainment, who've worked on a bunch of adult cartoons like Bob's Burgers, but I'm not sure how much creative input they actually had.)
Without that outsider perspective, I can see how it's extremely easy to get lost in the weeds and just write for the audience that's already there. Of course dedicating an entire three-minute musical number to Vox in the second episode seems like a good idea when you're surrounded by excited fans who've spent the last five years asking what's up with the TV head guy teased in the pilot. Of course you take for granted how much people already know about the characters and world when you've been talking about them online for years, and also producing a bunch of supplemental material like a whole spinoff show. It takes a lot of effort to not fall into that mindset and put yourself in the shoes of someone who's going in blind.
Again, this is all speculation. But these are easy traps for independent creators, especially ones coming from the world of webcomics, to fall into.

Yuri Subtext (?) Anime List
A supplement to my earlier yuri anime masterlist, this list covers anime which aren’t marketed as yuri but which prominently feature F/F pairs, whether canonical or subtext! Since subtext is so subjective, this post only includes series which I’ve actually watched, and so is by no means intended to be comprehensive.
Also, since the above description would not cover certain series with well-known yuri pairings, I've also included a few "bonus rounds" for the curious (although these are still limited to series I have watched).
At-a-glance list:
Revolutionary Girl Utena (39 episodes + 1 movie, 1997)
NOIR (26 episodes, 2001)
Puella Magi Madoka Magica (12 episodes, 2011)
Haibane Renmei (13 episodes, 2002)
.hack//SIGN (26 episodes, 2002)
Read or Die / R.O.D. the TV (26 episodes, 2003)
Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury (24 episodes, 2022)
Black Rock Shooter (8 episodes, 2010)
Izetta: The Last Witch (12 episodes, 2016)
Violet Evergarden: Eternity and the Auto Memory Doll (movie, 2019)
Canaan (13 episodes, 2009)
Ga-Rei: Zero (12 episodes, 2008)
Bonus rounds:
Sailor Moon S3 (38 episodes, 1994) (subtext)
Mai-Hime (26 episodes, 2004) (canon)
Psycho-Pass (41 episodes + 3 movies, 2012) (canon)
My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! (24 episodes + movie, 2020) (canon)
Summaries under the cut!
1. Revolutionary Girl Utena (39 episodes + 1 movie, 1997) - Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
(Copied from the Yuri Anime Masterlist post, since technically it wasn’t marketed as yuri)
When she was a child, Tenjou Utena (Kawakami Tomoko) was saved by a passerby prince, so she decided that she too wanted to become a prince as an adult. Fast forward to high school, and she hasn’t forgotten that conviction: Utena gets sucked into a series of duels while trying to protect her best friend’s honour. After winning the first duel, she becomes ‘engaged’ to the eccentric “Rose Bride” Himemiya Anthy (Fuchizaki Yuriko), and the two start living together in the same dormitory.
First things first: there are a million content warnings for this series, including implied rape, sexual assault, incest, and homophobia. Although the issues are handled well (in my opinion), it does go to very dark places, so those wanting a light, fun anime to unwind to should look elsewhere. Second, this series is very much a psychological drama utilising the episodic duels as a way of hone in on Utena’s opponents and their stories, so Utena and Anthy’s relationship – though important – is definitely not the focus of the anime. Third, the TV series is limited to hinting at the romantic relationship between Utena and Anthy, not to mention that they spend most of the series being little more than acquaintances rather than actual friends. The movie Adolescence (which can be taken as a retelling or sequel, depending on your perspective) is much more explicit on this front, but also suffers from a significantly shorter runtime and a much more opaque approach to storytelling.
That being said! If you’re okay with all of the above, this series is pretty much essential. The simplistic premise belies a much more complex and nuanced story about gender roles, sexuality, and human relationships and remains one of the smartest anime ever made, over twenty years on.
2. NOIR (26 episodes, 2001) - Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
The first in anime studio Bee Train’s “girls with guns” trilogy, NOIR follows globetrotting assassin duo Mireille Bouquet (Mitsuishi Kotono) and Yuumura Kirika (Kuwashima Houko) as they partner up to search for Kirika’s missing memories and the truth behind Mireille’s parents’ deaths. The series is pleasingly restrained despite the sensational premise, alternating between “business trips” to far-flung locations and snapshots of the pair’s domestic life in Mireille’s Paris apartment, and devoting more time to the unfolding of the relationship between the prickly Mireille and puppy-like Kirika than to action sequences. I won't say too much due to spoilers, but their relationship numbers among my favorites due to how naturally it is developed throughout and how it is very much at the heart of the series both narratively and thematically.
This is also the first anime soundtrack entirely composed by the legendary Kajiura Yuki, heralding a long collaboration with director Mashimo Kouichi, and her mix of classical and modern sounds provides the perfect accompaniment to NOIR’s atmospheric cityscapes. Also, for fans of Mitsuishi’s work (Sailor Moon! Utena! Evangelion!), I’d say NOIR is a must-watch for her performance alone; her Mireille is brittle and proud, and she brings so much humanity and nuance to the role. In fact, I don’t care if you’re a fan of Mitsuishi or Kajiura or assassins or whatever, please just try the first episode— this anime deserves way more love!
3. Puella Magi Madoka Magica (12 episodes, 2011) - Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
Puella Magi Madoka Magica opens with ordinary middle school girl Kaname Madoka (Yuuki Aoi) standing in the ruins of her hometown, watching as a lone girl struggles to defend what remains of the city against a much more powerful enemy. A little rabbit-like creature informs Madoka that the girl is sure to lose without her help, and so Madoka decides to become a magical girl right then and there— at which point she wakes up and dismisses it as a strange nightmare. But then that very day, her school receives a new transfer student who looks just like that mysterious girl, and she also finds a hurt animal that closely resembles the rabbit-like creature from her dream. Madoka is then faced with certain questions: do magical girls actually exist, and will she become one herself?
Since Madoka Magica was all the rage back in the early 2010s, I don’t think it too much of a spoiler to say that the cheery first three episodes hide a dark, gritty story which uses the concept of magical girls to explore the tumultuousness of adolescence. The queer subtext only comes in at the end but tight plotting and inventive presentation make this show a quick watch— and if you’re the type who likes queerness in fiction to be intense, world-shakingly significant, and a wee bit problematic, the payoff should be more than enough. A word of warning: there is a movie sequel called Rebellion, but if you’re happy with the ending of the anime, it’s best not to watch it (although I love the movie, myself).
Side note: I won’t go into it too much due to spoilers but if you liked Madoka Magica you might want to check out Serial Experiments Lain – even if most of it is utterly incomprehensible (as it was to me), it’s worth watching until the very end (wink). Also, for the rare fan of Rebellion, Adolescence of Utena is a must-watch if you haven’t checked it out already; so much can be said about its conceptual and aesthetic influences on Rebellion!
4. Haibane Renmei (13 episodes, 2002) - Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
(Note: slight spoilers about the tone and overall themes of the show – but I think it’s necessary for the purpose of writing a more representative summary.)
Written by ABe Yoshitoshi – character designer of cult classic anime Serial Experiments Lain and author of the very unfinished manga which this show adapts and significantly develops – Haibane Renmei starts off as a light-fantasy slice-of-life anime following freshly-arrived Rakka (Hirohashi Ryou) as she searches for a suitable job in the town of Glie, before transforming into a nuanced exploration of grief and depression about halfway through. To say more would be really too spoilery, but I just want to say that this has probably the most grounded and sensitive depiction of depression I have seen in an anime; it shows that sometimes people struggle even if everyone around them is kind and supportive, but remains hopeful about the healing power of time and understanding. The subtext is between the protagonist and Reki (Noda Junko), the first person she meets, who also helps her get acclimatised to her new life in Glie. Again, I won’t say more, but their relationship really is wonderful. That being said, this show does touch upon suicide and suicidal ideation in the course of discussing these themes, so please steer clear if that is something you are wary of.
5. .hack//SIGN (26 episodes, 2002) - Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
A standalone spinoff of the .hack PS2 games, this show was the most well-known anime about players getting trapped inside a multiplayer game before Sword Art Online’s arrival in 2012 (ironically, Kajiura Yuki composed the music for both). Rather than being an action-adventure story about a heroic protagonist trying to find a way back to the real world, SIGN stands out as an introspective piece, far more interested in the psychology of those who play online games and the issues of human connection and identity. In fact, the female protagonist is all too happy to remain within the MMORPG as male player-avatar Tsukasa (Saiga Mitsuki) after becoming unable to log out; the story is more about how the player grows to accept the real world with the help of the other players she meets, rather than about figuring out the exit route.
On the F/F side, some way into the series, Tsukasa makes an instant connection with fellow player-character Subaru (Nazuka Kaori) and they soon start spending a lot of time together. I really love their scenes together; the series' masterful use of body language, framing, and music all comes together to create these beautifully tender moments of intimacy. Although there’s no kiss scene nor explicit discussion of dating etc., a lot of the other characters talk about their relationship and perceive it as being romantic, to the point where one gets homophobically “worried” about Subaru when they find out that the player controlling male avatar Tsukasa is female. Tsukasa and Subaru's relationship becomes a lynchpin for both characters' development, and in general is used to illustrate the series' underlying themes in a thoughtful and heartwarming way.
6. Read or Die / R.O.D. the TV (26 episodes, 2003) Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
A spinoff of the Read or Die series which takes more from espionage thrillers and Hong Kong action flicks than shounen anime, R.O.D. the TV takes the unusual approach of starting with its main character - elite paper-maniuplating superspy Yomiko Readman (Miura Rieko) - being nowhere to be seen after burning down the British Library in a dramatic resignation announcement. Instead of focusing on her, or the spy agencies clashing in her absence, the story instead follows her friend Sumiregawa Nenene (Yukino Satsuki), who joins up with a trio of sisters with paper-manipulating powers and criminal connections in her quest to find out what happened to Yomiko. The queerness is mainly implied through Nenene's focus on Yomiko, which is unrequited and sadly fizzles out narratively speaking in the back half. Unfortunately, this is coupled with an increased focus on more heteronormative topics, such as Yomiko's grief over her dead male lover, and the child one of the characters had with the villain of the OVA. That being said, I also want to shout out this series' surprisingly earnest depiction of budding queerness in a young (like, elementary-school young) side character - something that is rare in fiction even now.
7. Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury (24 episodes, 2022) - Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
The most recent entry on this list by far (the final episode aired just a day ago at time of writing), The Witch from Mercury initially seems to forgo the Gundam franchise’s usual grand scale, being set in an academy run by the corporate giant Benerit Group. Main character and new student Suletta Mercury (Ichinose Kana) - the franchise’s first female protagonist since its beginnings in 1979 - accidentally bumbles her way into fighting a mecha duel, and, when she wins, is shocked to find that she is now engaged to the sole heiress of that self-same corporate giant, her classmate Miorine Rembran (Lynn). So far so Utena, but after the first episode, things start to diverge significantly: though the duels continue, the focus shifts to how big-picture tensions such as the manoeuvring within the Benerit Group and the conflict between the space colonisers and people on Earth play out within the student body, and how the arrival of Suletta and her mysteriously cutting-edge mecha start to shake up the status quo… until things come to an explosive head.
For those who curious about G-Witch due to Suletta and Miorine, but who wouldn’t normally be interested in Gundam or space operas, I’ll just say that if the hype has led you to expect a big queer romance where Suletta and Miorine shout their love from the rooftops, well, that’s not how it goes. It’s a mecha anime first and foremost, after all! But lower your expectations and you may be pleasantly surprised. Season 1 offers plenty to enjoy in terms of Suletta’s earnest attempts to be a good “bridegroom” and the tsundere Miorine’s bouts of jealousy over Suletta. And while their relationship takes a bit of a back seat in Season 2 due to there being So Much going on, it remains one of the key elements of the series and their scenes together are the emotional peaks of the season.
Side note: Some might criticise Gundam for taking so long to have a female main character, but let’s not forget about how the even older Ultraman (1966), Kamen Rider (1971), and Super Sentai (1975) franchises still have not had a single mainline series featuring a female protagonist… Come on guys, I’m dying for a female-led Kamen Rider over here!
8. Black Rock Shooter (8 episodes, 2010) - Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
One of the two anime inspired by the Hatsune Miku song of the same name, this Okada Mari-penned series hones in on the passionate friendships and jealousies of a group of middle-school girls. In a twist that feels informed by the psychological allegory of the popular Persona games, this interpersonal drama plays out in the surreal battle world of the music video, with the titular Black Rock Shooter being the main character’s alter-ego. Of particular interest is the first half’s focus on the blossoming friendship between protagonist Kuroi Mato (Hanazawa Kana) and her shy classmate Takanashi Yomi (Sawashiro Miyuki), which has strong overtones of two girls developing crushes on each other – it doesn’t go smoothly, but hey, that’s life.
9. Izetta: The Last Witch (12 episodes, 2016) - Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
Set during what is basically World War 2, Izetta: The Last Witch asks the daring question of “What if a small European country about to be invaded by alternate-history Nazi Germany could fight back with magic… and what if it was (subtextually) yuri?” The show follows politically-minded princess Finé as she and her best friend (read: girlfriend) Izetta think up ways to leverage the latter’s witchy gifts to save the country from invasion – a rare case of a military anime where female characters are significantly involved at the strategic stage. Those who enjoy the classic princess-and-knight trope may find something to like as long as they are fine with Finé and Izetta not having much relationship development (as their dynamic is established from the start) and them not having many one-on-one scenes together (as the series’ main focus is on the political manoeuvring). Note that this show is also pretty heavy on the fanservice – IIRC there was at least one moment of egregious sexualisation per episode.
Side note: those who like Izetta may also want to check out Last Exile: Fam, the Silver Wing, a female-focused dieselpunk anime with a lot of military strategizing and a very cool world setting, though Izetta is better-paced and the main relationship is much more plot-significant. (That being said I do like the relationship between Fam side characters Tatiana and Alistair… Tatiana is probably the adult character with the most screentime in Fam, being the main characters’ commanding officer, and although it’s very background, she has this cutely settled dynamic with former piloting partner turned wife right-hand woman Alistair.)
10. Violet Evergarden: Eternity and the Auto Memory Doll (movie, 2019) - Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
(Note: this entry’s a slightly weird one, it only covers the first 40 minutes of this movie due to it being basically two episodic stories smushed together into a single package, and only the earlier story is relevant to this list.)
In this standalone spinoff of the Violet Evergarden anime series – itself an adaptation of the light novel series by Akatsuki Kana – the titular protagonist Violet (Ishikawa Yui) takes a break from ghostwriting letters to serve as companion to aloof young noblewoman Isabella York (Kotobuki Minako) in her last months of finishing school. The story is a quiet coming-of-age tale focusing on how the kind (and rather dashing!) Violet helps Isabella to open up, or, in simpler terms, it’s fodder for butler-and-lady fans. Don’t get your hopes up too much, though: Violet learning about her romantic feelings for her deceased male superior is one of the main throughlines of the anime, and this (half of the) movie also ends with a heterosexual arranged marriage for Isabella. That being said, this movie is really a feast for the eyes, its historical-fantasy setting being brought out with beautiful backgrounds and detailed linework, so it’s worth checking out if you don’t mind the very Class S narrative.
Side note: if you want F/F butler-and-lady or princess-and-knight vibes I would really recommend watching Fate/Zero for Saber and Irisviel – yes Irisviel is already married to one of the (male) main characters and yes Saber is absolutely the main love interest for the famously-straight Fate/stay night, but their dynamic is really good and Saber gets to wear a stylish suit and be all chivalrous to a woman… Please watch the third episode of season 1 at least…
11. Canaan (13 episodes, 2009) - Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
There’s quite a lot going on in Canaan – perhaps unsurprisingly so for a spinoff of the FMV visual novel 428: Shibuya Scramble, which is famous for its intertwined storylines – but in true action-movie blockbuster style, all you really need to know is that the titular mercenary Canaan (Sawashiro Miyuki) is on a hunt for her mentor’s protégé-turned-murderer, and a lot of flashy fighting is involved. Also, there's no need to worry if you haven't played the original game, as Canaan is pretty much a standalone work and all of the significant characters are original to the anime. Yuri-minded viewers may enjoy her clashes with the villain Alphard (Sakamoto Maaya), but the main source of F/F subtext is her relationship with the young photographer Maria (Nanjo Yoshino), for whom she cares deeply and must rescue on multiple occasions. However, do be warned that the one canonically queer character in the show – Alphard’s subordinate Liang Qi (Tanaka Rie), who is fixated on her boss – is handled very badly, being portrayed as a raving predatory lesbian who is mocked, rejected, and finally killed by the object of her affections. Canaan and Maria’s relationship is also framed very definitively as friendship by the end of the series, although they don’t get paired off with male characters. IIRC there’s also some fanservice but I can’t remember the details as it was a long time ago, sorry.
12. Ga-Rei: Zero (12 episodes, 2008) - Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
Back in the old days, I had heard this show talked about in the same breath as yuri classics such as Kannazuki no Miko and Mai-Hime, and, well, like those series it comes with significant caveats (though thankfully there is no sexual assault). Although it’s a prequel to the Ga-Rei manga by Segawa Hajime, the anime is basically standalone and focuses on original characters Kagura (Chihara Minori) and Yomi (Mizuhara Kaoru), the latter of whom welcomes protagonist Kagura into her family and demon-hunting squad, only to leave the team in a devastating betrayal. After the explosive opening, the series jumps back to explore the events leading up to that point; fans of director Aoki Ei’s work on Fate/Zero should note that the dark tone disappears in the third episode and never quite comes back even when things get serious. Viewers should also keep their F/F expectations in check, since despite the premise I would say the series is more plot- than character-focused, and on top of that a significant amount of time is devoted to Yomi’s relationship with her male fiancé (Yomi and Kagura have more screentime together, but there’s not much development whereas Yomi and her fiancé are given a whole romantic arc). There is one very fanservicey scene between Kagura and Yomi in a car early on (in episode 3?) which viewers may want to skip, but IIRC it’s an outlier and the rest of the series is nowhere near as bad.
Bonus Rounds
1. Sailor Moon S / Season 3 (38 episodes, 1994) (subtext) - Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
Possibly the most widely-known F/F couple in anime, Haruka and Michiru (Ogata Megumi and Katsuki Masako, respectively), make their first appearance in episode 3 of the third season as mysterious newcomers who refuse to work alongside the Sailor Senshi. Apart from being consistently framed as an ideal couple throughout (they practically cruise to victory in a couple’s contest in episode 5 of S3), they also get some juicy narrative moments, being the main subject of the excellent episodes 17 and 21 – the latter being the mid-season climax. They return in S5 but I haven’t watched that season yet.
Side note: Utena fans may be particularly interested to hear that the aforementioned Haruka-and-Michiru-centric episodes 17 and 21 are helmed by key Utena creatives. Both were written by Enokido Yoji, Utena's lead scriptwriter, while episode 17 was directed by Igarashi Takuya (who storyboarded 5 Utena episodes) and episode 21 was directed by Utena director Ikuhara Kunihiko himself.
2. Mai-Hime (26 episodes, 2004) (canon) - Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
Way back when, Mai-Hime was very popular among yuri fans for including a canonically queer female character who was in love with another female character… even though, like in Kannazuki no Miko which was broadcast the same year, she commits sexual assault against her. For those still curious, Mai-Hime starts out as a quirky fighting-monsters-and-going to school anime but turns into a battle royale where characters fight each other using robots – the twist being that the robots symbolise their love for the person most precious to them, and if destroyed, that person will die. The queer storyline comes in only in the last quarter or so, but is compellingly told and at least the queer character isn’t quite as maniacal or otherwise demonised compared to some others (looking at you, Liang Qi in Canaan). It's a fun reveal, so I won't spoil it here even if you're likely to have heard of it already.
3. Psycho-Pass (41 episodes + 3 movies, 2012) (canon) - Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
Psycho-Pass is set in a dystopian world where people are rated on their criminal tendencies; the main characters’ job as police officers is to arrest those whose tendencies exceed a certain level. The F/F is canon but very, very background; one of the surprise twists of the finale is that forensics expert Karanomori Shion (Sawashiro Miyuki), whose appearance screams “sexy doctor character” but is played with surprising warmth by Sawashiro, is actually in a relationship with seemingly aloof field officer Kunizuka Yayoi (Itou Shizuka). I only watched the first season and so can’t comment on the rest, but apparently they are still in a relationship in the third season.
4. My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! (24 episodes + movie, 2020) (canon) - Anime News Network | MyAnimeList
An adaptation of Yamaguchi Satoru’s popular light novel series, this show headed the wave of reincarnated-villainess isekai, focusing on the bumbling Catarina Claes (Uchida Maaya) – in actuality an otaku who has been reincarnated into an otome game – as she tries desperately to remove her character’s image as a villainess and thereby inadvertently attracts the attentions of many a suitor. Among this reverse harem are three female characters Maria Campbell (Hayami Saori), Mary Hunt (Okasaki Miho), and Sophia Ascart (Minase Inori).
While the female suitors’ romantic interest in Catarina is generally not undermined or played as a joke, they are not necessarily treated as equally valid options compared to the male suitors - it doesn't feel like Catarina has a real chance of ending up with any of the female characters. I've heard this starts becoming more obvious in S2 (which I haven't watched), which apparently focuses on Catarina's relationship development with one particular male suitor compared to the others. Also, the VN spinoff had 6 routes in total (all 4 male suitors + 2 original male characters) but did not include a single female route, despite being non-canon in nature.

Do you know at what point ASPD is unlikely to reverse in minors (like 17 or 16 but I know 18 is necessary for diagnosis) or if a certain amount of symptoms is unlikely to reduce enough to not be ASPD anymore?
I've heard the 18+ thing is necessary because ASPD can be reduced/reversed before 18 but I'm not sure if it consistently includes 16/17 as ones who can also be reduced if they meet the criteria.
I'm just turning 17 next month and trying to get therapy is difficult because of my provider so I'm worried my ASPD traits are irreversible already (mostly because of how much I experience them, which is relatively a lot compared to prosocials)
So the younger you are, the easier this is, but realistically I wouldn't be surprised if it has wiggle room even going over that 18 year range - which is somewhat arbitrary and is not built with the actual ages of impulsivity and emotional regulation in mind as far as I can tell. It's just that ASPD can only be diagnosed in adulthood, and in the US which is the book I'm reading out of, you're an adult at 18. I don't think it's a hard and fast rule bc the wording is "cannot be diagnosed until 18" not "should be diagnosed if these symptoms persist past 18". It's basically saying that you can't diagnose anyone under that age with it bc it could just be normal teenage behavior.
The things that can reverse the set in of ASPD symptoms are all based in adequate support and ability to heal, so the freshness of the events leading to ASPD would also be important to consider. You're less likely to be able to be helped to recover from this to where it's not diagnosable (meaning you don't have it bc you genuinely do not under any definition fit the criteria - this is what ppl mean when they say with their antidepressants, they're no longer considered diagnosable with depression and are therefore considered successfully treated) if you've spent longer in survival mode. What the support needed to avoid ASPD is based on is getting you out of survival mode in time for your brain to socially develop properly. As the brain doesn't stop developing until around 25, my unprofessional behind would not be surprised if you could, in theory, be given enough respite that you can avoid ASPD for a couple years after that 18 starting line for diagnosis. And the less time you were in survival mode without adequate support to remove you from it, the lower chance antisocial traits would develop in the first place.
It is absolutely worth an attempt if you're able to start trying to get that support, but try to do it outside of the mindset of running from ASPD, bc that will ruin your brain's ability to focus on healing. In the meantime while you're getting that therapy to process, you can also be supplementing your therapy with researching and attempting to understand social cues and dances and all of that. If you're getting help and you're researching this, then even if you do end up having ASPD you'll have done a good amount of the heavy lifting to learn to best cope with it and have more typical relationships and social interactions with those around you.
No matter what, you have all the time in the world to heal to a very significant degree bc ASPD does respond to professional help to mitigate some of it's symptoms, so please don't let turning 18 discourage you from getting help. With or without ASPD, you deserve to heal from whatever trauma you've dealt with.
Plain text below the cut:
So the younger you are, the easier this is, but realistically I wouldn't be surprised if it has wiggle room even going over that 18 year range - which is somewhat arbitrary and is not built with the actual ages of impulsivity and emotional regulation in mind as far as I can tell. It's just that ASPD can only be diagnosed in adulthood, and in the US which is the book I'm reading out of, you're an adult at 18. I don't think it's a hard and fast rule bc the wording is "cannot be diagnosed until 18" not "should be diagnosed if these symptoms persist past 18". It's basically saying that you can't diagnose anyone under that age with it bc it could just be normal teenage behavior.
The things that can reverse the set in of ASPD symptoms are all based in adequate support and ability to heal, so the freshness of the events leading to ASPD would also be important to consider. You're less likely to be able to be helped to recover from this to where it's not diagnosable (meaning you don't have it bc you genuinely do not under any definition fit the criteria - this is what ppl mean when they say with their antidepressants, they're no longer considered diagnosable with depression and are therefore considered successfully treated) if you've spent longer in survival mode. What the support needed to avoid ASPD is based on is getting you out of survival mode in time for your brain to socially develop properly. As the brain doesn't stop developing until around 25, my unprofessional behind would not be surprised if you could, in theory, be given enough respite that you can avoid ASPD for a couple years after that 18 starting line for diagnosis. And the less time you were in survival mode without adequate support to remove you from it, the lower chance antisocial traits would develop in the first place.
It is absolutely worth an attempt if you're able to start trying to get that support, but try to do it outside of the mindset of running from ASPD, bc that will ruin your brain's ability to focus on healing. In the meantime while you're getting that therapy to process, you can also be supplementing your therapy with researching and attempting to understand social cues and dances and all of that. If you're getting help and you're researching this, then even if you do end up having ASPD you'll have done a good amount of the heavy lifting to learn to best cope with it and have more typical relationships and social interactions with those around you.
No matter what, you have all the time in the world to heal to a very significant degree bc ASPD does respond to professional help to mitigate some of it's symptoms, so please don't let turning 18 discourage you from getting help. With or without ASPD, you deserve to heal from whatever trauma you've dealt with.

Okay, so I wrote this on reddit to a depression doomer, but I want someone who might have an iota of openness to considering it to read it, so I'm posting it here. I assume there will be doomers here too, because depression is depressing. All of these things are things that I've tried, and all of them are things that have made my life better than it was before. All of them I have started in an incredibly janky way and they've still helped. If anyone is interested (or I receive the same combination of depression-based hostility and intense focus), I'll make separate posts on how to actually do the thing.
Things that might make a person's depression improve that don't involved going to a therapist:
Aerobic exercise 4x/week
Membership in a community/close relationships/human touch/human interaction. I'm bundling these together, because in a practical sense, you're making about the same decisions yourself, and the interactions with other people will follow. I recommend finding a "Third Place," such as a sports league or dance community (see exercise), game/knitting/metaphysical store, bar, cafe, meetup group, adult learning class, regular volunteering gig, music venue, RPG group, book club, brunch group...you get the idea. The best ones are open to the public if you're socially isolated or looking to date, because you'll meet a greater variety of people, but anywhere where the same amorphous or literal group of people shows up at a place and time will help you build relationships.
Omega 3 Fatty acids, Vitamin D, Vitamin B-complex, Magnesium: I'm not a doctor and this is not medical advice. They might give you energy and run your body more smoothly.
St. John's Wort: I'm giving this its own thing because the above are supplements that the body gets in its diet, this is a drug™, but you can purchase it over the counter. It inhibits the reuptake of serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine, for which there is some evidence that it helps depression on a chemical level. It has mad drug interactions and PLEASE do your research before taking it.
A lot of things in the cognitive behavioral therapy realm. Gratitude practices, affirmations, I'm sure there are CBT workbooks for depression that one could find. The idea is to reframe your thoughts to make sure they are a) true and b) priming you to feel emotions and take actions that will make your life suck less.
Going outside. Living in a suboptimal space is depressing, and so many of us do it. We do better when we see and hear trees. We do better when we see and feel the sun. We process things when our brains run electricity back and forth between the two sides, as happens when walking (drumming is also good for this, or bilateral stimulation from something else).
Accomplish things. I know. This, even more than the many difficult things I've listed, probably feels impossible, but I'm writing it anyway, because it really does help. If you have small tasks you've been putting off, try and get one done. Break up big tasks into accomplishable steps. Not like "Clean the house" to "Clean the bathroom," like "Clean the house" to "throw all the trash on the couch in the trash can" or "get out all the products to clean the bathroom" (the second kind doesn't vibe with me but some people like it)
You'll notice none of this is going to fix the world, except for the shitty little corner the person doing it is sitting in. That's the point. There is so much wrong with the world, and it asks a lot of us to fix it: our labor, yes, and also our joy. And also, our ability to get out of bed in the morning, our ability to send emails, our ability to check in on each other, our ability to keep ourselves out of entanglements with the state and other institutions. I'm not saying this because it's fair, I'm saying it because it's the way out I see in front of us.

How often have you spotted someone taller and sighed "If only I too were…" You are not alone. There are so many who are blessed with so much, but the height. There may be many causes for that and even there may be factors that are beyond your control such as genetics. But there are ways that can help you inch up. Height growth supplements and height-increasing formulas are in vogue. Are they really the go-to medicine that makes you taller? How effective are they, let's check.
Where do you get your height from?
Genetics is a major determinant of your height. How tall you will get rests mainly upon your DNA. There may be rare cases when your genes aren't the cause of your short stature. Other than genetic factors nutrition, lifestyle, physical activities, environmental factors, physical trauma, and stress may play vital roles in physical growth.
Normally, a child after the age of 2 grows at a rate of 6 cm per year till she or he reaches adolescence. Most of the growth in height takes place during puberty and stops when the growth plates fuse, limiting further growth of bones. This means you have to focus more on increasing height during your adolescence stage.
Can you grow more?
There are things that you should also continue to do to optimize your ability to grow and maintain your height even after you attain adulthood. Follow these steps to look taller and maximize your growth potential.
Nutrition
The growing stage requires adequate nutrition. After puberty, although they don't give a spurt in your height, but will make and keep you strong and healthy-looking.
Add more fresh veggies, proteins, dairy, fresh fruits, and grains to your diet. Stay away from sugar and saturated fats. Keep checking your calcium levels. If you are wondering which vitamin is needed for height growth; they are vitamin D and K. Vitamin D and K are vital for bone health along with minerals such as zinc and magnesium. They support the body to absorb and utilize nutrients essential for growth. The study results have proved that a deficiency of vitamin D results in stunted growth in young children.
Exercise
Aerobics, flexibility exercises, and power-building exercises such as sit-ups and push-ups keep you healthy and help make your bones and muscles strong. Flexibility and stretching exercises like yogic poses maintain hormone levels, correct your postures, improve your mobility, and reduce the chances of injury in later years of life.
Supplements
Choose height increase medicines wisely. According to your needs, the doctors advise you supplements. They check whether your growth is stunted due to a deficiency of growth hormones or if you are an adult they may check for your calcium and vitamin levels and likewise.
There are natural height growth capsules and powder supplements that can be tried if you are in a growing stage. Unlike synthetic supplements, herbs are natural and often free of major side effects but be cautious if you are allergic to any herbs. For that do check the label for the ingredients in it.
You should consider the following before taking any supplements that claim height growth:
Effectiveness: As it is unlikely that supplements may bring a drastic change in your height if you have crossed puberty, some improvements can be expected if you are still in a growing stage.
Side effects: Synthetic hormonal supplements with human growth hormone or HGH may have side effects such as muscle, joint, and nerve pain. The best supplements for height growth don't have side effects. Mostly herbal supplements are safer as they are natural.
Only facts no fiction: Keep a realistic expectation. Don't expect 2 inches of height growth in a fortnight. Even natural hormones that your body releases take time to give effect. Here, you can't expect synthetic hormonal supplements to work magic.
Sleep
Human growth hormone is released by the pituitary gland in the body during sleep. HGH is responsible for the growth and multiplication of bone and cartilage cells. If you don't get enough sleep then HGH release is disturbed, causing slow growth. Growth here means overall growth, including height.
How can you look taller?
There are some tips that you can follow to look tall, and they are:
Correct posture: Maintain a good posture. Poor posture such as slumping and hunching may affect your height in the long run. Postures like mountain pose, cobra pose, and warrior pose correct your posture.
Clothing selection: Check for the fitting. The right-fit clothes can help you look taller. Check for styles that create an illusion of height.
High Shoes: Specially designed shoes can elevate your height instantly.
The bottom line
Focusing on height growth measures during adolescence is vital. It's a fact that height growth stops by the end of puberty; however, some steps can enhance your growth and development and help maintain your height during adulthood. Height growth medicines are a hope for those looking to add a few inches, but should be taken with taking necessary precautions. Opting for natural products with herbal ingredients is safer as they have minimum side effects. Consult a physician before you start any supplements or medicines. So, keep growing!

I think my main problem with dawntrail's writing is that none of the characters have ever read a science fiction novel in their entire lives, because science fiction hasn't been invented yet on etheirys, so obviously they can't tell what's going on from a mile away even though I, the player, can. (more of me thinking through this, spoilers for the whole damn msq):
the problem is that my main wol is "me if I got isekaied into the game a year after I started playing it", and I have read several science fiction novels in my entire life, in addition to having been raised on a steady diet of farscape, stargate: sg1, and star trek: enterprise supplemented by tng and tos. so she's got plenty of "educated guesses", to borrow a phrase from the msq, about where all this is going.
but the story has to constantly repeat itself because gamers can't fucking read and a chunk of the playerbase still thinks garlemald was the good guys and a lot of the audience probably wasn't raised on the early sci-fi channel's offerings or the japanese equivalent (which I suspect is a steady diet of gundam). and the wol has never been written as one of the educated adults in the room; that's what we have the nerd squad for. and the wol waits around for them to do all the smart people stuff, except sometimes for a dialogue choice where one option is to prove you've been following the conversation just fine and the other is to ask alphinaud to explain in little words.
the game's always kind of been like this, and I like it just fine, but then you combine it with all the little stuff like how when the group splits up to do stuff, we're always paired with lamaty'i and never anyone else, with the Singular exception of shaaloani, which is also the most attention the story pays to erenville for its entirety even though his home was destroyed and his mom's fucking dead and now only lives in the matrix (I have not yet been to the matrix but I do know that it's zone 6, and I'm not hopeful of erenville getting the focus he should there). and krile! she was supposed to be a big player here, we literally learn about her past and where she came from, and she gets like five lines of dialogue per zone and all of them are super generic.* what's she thinking? how does she feel about all this? idk, maybe we'd find out if the story ever let us hang out with anyone other than lamaty'i!
and to be clear: I like lamaty'i! you can tell because I consistently only refer to her as lamaty'i instead of wuk lamat! I wanna take her on a world tour, ostensibly for Diplomacy but mostly because I think she'd have a great time and it would be super fun!
but like, I would like to be able to check in with all my other friends, too! and I know she's Extremely Orange Cat Coded but I'm pretty sure she, at the very least, should be like. checking in with erenville, her childhood friend???? the story keeps telling us they're friends, but it feels more like they're two kids whose parents were friends and who were therefore forced into each other's company a lot, but not like actual friends. like we know erenville was a fussy kid so him being really snarky kind of tracks, but when you combine it with lamaty'i's general lack of... idk, care? checking in? I mean, nobody's really checking in with erenville and seeing how he's handling things, and maybe it's because the scions just generally don't really know him very well but they do know he's pretty private and therefore think giving him space is best, and that if he's struggling he'll reach out. but lamaty'i and him are supposed to be actual friends, and until about three years ago when he left for sharlayan they seem to have been spending a lot of time together, even if it was just because erenville's mom dumped him at the palace so she could go run off and have adventures (cahciua doesn't seem to have been a very good mom tbh, but maybe zone 6 will change my opinion). like. lamaty'i should know erenville well enough to feel comfortable actually checking in on him and making sure he's all right. but she just. doesn't do that. which leaves the lingering impression that they're not actually friends.
(part of this is that nobody ever fucking touches anyone in this game. it's super super rare - see me yelling about somebody finally fucking hugging gulool ja earlier. I get that they don't like to rig anyone physically interacting with the wol, because they could be anywhere between lalafell and roegadyn or hrothgar-sized and that's fucking awkward and a pain in the ass, but lamaty'i reads as a super physical person and even her just bumping shoulders with erenville once or twice and like. having one singular moment with erenville where she's like "I'm here for you" and gives him a reassuring bicep squeeze would go a long fucking way to establishing them as people who actually like each other.)
* literally nothing about the story so far would change if krile had been like some random orphan from the isle of val and just. found an old letter to her grandpa from gulool ja ja containing the earring and decided to go see what all that was about. if the two lalas from alexandria had just smuggled out the key and the earring, instead of those AND their baby. hell, she doesn't even have to be galuf's adopted granddaughter, she's just The Only Person Who Survived Val Disappearing so she's in charge of the students now! here's this letter to our organization's founder from across the globe, let's go see what that's all about! but she is his adopted granddaughter, and also g'raha's foster sister, another relationship that dawntrail has seemingly entirely forgotten about. although I suppose it doesn't matter, since krile sure doesn't seem to have any kind of emotions or even really reactions to learning about her original parents or where she came from, so what would she need reassurance from her literal older brother for? (unrelated I hate hate hate that krile's one of the youngest scions even though she's so extremely older sister coded. she's only older than the twins and maybe tataru? it just doesn't make sense to me.)
SO ANYWAY I think my ultimate conclusion for alisa being so blasé about plot developments and probably being stoned the whole msq because goddammit she's on vacation, is that aside from zoraal ja thinking he's zenos and definitely not being zenos, alisa has correctly identified sphene's entire deal as being shadowbringers writ small, and sphene's definitely not emet-selch, so alisa can just kinda hang out and let lamaty'i prove her mettle and only jump in if she asks to use a lifeline. this is a problem to be solved by having eight warm bodies to throw at it, not a problem that actually Requires the warrior of light. I almost even wanna take off her serious title since she's not taking this very seriously, but I know it's going to become relevant later because I couldn't stop clicking on spoilers lol
#azu plays ffxiv#dawntrail spoilers#that is so many more words than i thought i had lmao. and i didnt even get in the fingerpainting bit!

I can't promote Slim Surge specifically, but I can offer some general information about weight loss supplements and suggest safe and effective alternatives.
Here's the truth about weight loss supplements:
There's no magic pill. Supplements can assist weight loss, but they aren't a quick fix.
Many are ineffective or have side effects. The best approach is a healthy diet and exercise.
Talk to your doctor before starting any supplement, especially if you have underlying health conditions.
Safe and effective alternatives for weight loss:
Diet: Focus on whole foods, fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins. Reduce sugary drinks and processed foods.
Exercise: Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week.
Doctor or Registered Dietitian: They can create a personalized plan for healthy weight loss.
Instead of promoting Slim Surge, consider this message:
"Want to lose weight? We recommend a healthy diet, exercise, and consulting a doctor or dietitian for a safe and effective plan."
This approach is honest, informative, and avoids promoting potentially risky supplements.

Since round 2 of @sonic-oc-showdown is so close right now, thought I'd do this questionnaire for dog! after going through some other competitors' summaries vs propaganda, i definitely get a much better idea of the character from this supplemental stuff!
Original post by @/redd956 here! Banner by @/bunnymajo :) ty!
✨- How did you come up with the OC’s name?
Hmm poorly! ^_^; But the logic became: Dog picked his name* because he was amused by the idea of having a name that can be general slang. he's always waiting for the day when someone says "what's up, dawg?" (he lives in a 90s sonic comic okay?) and he can.. well.. he hasn't really realized his response would not be different whether that was just a normal greeting or his name. and I'm not sure it's going to happen either, but it amuses him anyway. he's easily amused :) *all three of them in their core friend group have picked their names. dog + bebe for transgender reasons and fleet just for general Identity reasons.
🌼 - How old are they? (Or approximate age range)
16 (or 16-ish; i actually have to check his ref every time so the specific number isn't that important since I can never remember it)
🍕 - What is their favorite food?
i feel like this kid could DEMOLISH some chinese takeout. he's going for noodles, he's going for dumplings, he's going for spice.
🎹 - Do they have any hobbies?
skating! dog + her friends all meet + bond over skating :) dog prefers to board and honestly takes it real casual. she can do some tricks and will go out there and focus for a while, but usually she just slowly rolls around on her board and chats with her friends. she also collects trading cards and plays videos games.
🎯 -What do they do best?
dog isn't really the competitive type--she's just here to have fun and be herself. as such, she doesn't really care to think about whether or not shes 'good' at things... he's just chilling! i think his friends might say his strengths are in handling stress, being a good listener, and first aid. and then theyd tack on that some of the casual little gum wrapper crafts she makes are wicked cool
🥊 -What do they love to do? What do they hate to do?
loves: chilling, being with friends, hanging out, having a good time
hates: when anything starts to be not that. majorly avoids anything that is too much Not the above things.
❤️ - What is one of your OC’s best memories?
not really a memory, but i think he treasures his childhood friendship with bebe :) he loves to see how she's grown into a more confident and happy person. any time he makes a new friend is a good memory. any time his friends make a new friend is also a good memory. reaching out and welcoming in that nervous yellow hedgehog lingering at the edge of the park for the first time and seeing him warm up to the group was a good memory :)
✂️ - What is one of your OC’s worst memories?
dog good vibes forever <3
🧊 - Is their current design the first one?
Pretty much! I've gone back and forth on what kind of gloves to give her, and the hoodie is just a normal skull instead of sans, but otherwise is still check my work on her original ref
🍀 - What originally inspired the OC?
Fleet Needs Friends dot MyMind
🌂 - What genre do they belong in?
Dog being part of canon-divergence au in the fleetway comics puts her in variety comedy/adventure i guess :) in my mind, the stories the group get up to are "working together to defeat a minor villain in the area even though they don't have powers" and "getting possessed by/having wishes granted by/retrieving one of ebony's magical macguffins." the non-story fanficky stuff is mostly Chilling, Hanging Out, Shooting the Shit, and Being Unbothered. (as well as like. semi-grounded melodrama. you know the fun of taking character moments So Seriously?)
💚 - What is your OC’s gender identity and sexuality?
gender: ? sexuality: ??
🙌 - How many sibling does your OC have?
none that I've bothered to make, but i could see her having an adult older brother
🍎 - What is the OC’s relationship w/their parents like?
dog's parents aren't really in the picture! he lives with his nan. they have a semi-strained relationship--they love each other and have their bonding moments, but she can get pretty riled up about some of the things dog does (knuckle tats, dirty room), even if there are others she just doesn't seem to care about (skipping school, extended stays at friends' houses, nosering). dog usually defaults to "ignore and avoid" if things are anything less than peachy.
🧠 - What do you like most about the OC?
he's just so easy to draw and i got that design down PAT. im really happy with dog + bebe + merger fleet all sharing color across their designs :) the friends. (i need to get bebe some green +gold accents tho it seems...)
also the knuckle tats detail and this
✏️ - How often do you draw/write about the OC?
usually when i'm having a fleet Moment dog comes along for the ride, maybe gets slingshotted forward into his own moment. so not that often, but in batches
💎 - Do you ever see yourself killing off the OC?
dog live forever <3
💀 - Does your OC have any phobias?
none that she would tell you 👍
🍩 -Who is your OC’s arch-nemesis or rival?
dog everyones friend forever <3
🎓 - How long have you had the OC?
Just over a year! the ref is dated august 6th 2022 and i did the original sketches the day before.
#myaa#socs#couch art#reading other ppls' character summarizes makes it much clearer what makes a good summary and i left those things out so </3 oh well!#doggy i love doggy vote my special girlguy <3

The Perfect (Editorial or Agent) Match
Hey there, Yogi Bear!
To start out today's blog, I wanna talk about a kinda fun recent thing. Steve Lieber, who I've mentioned before for having his 12 point portfolio review critique without even looking, asked about the writing review equivalent. Jim Zub took a stab at it and his list is pretty good. And Chip Zdarsky's were also recommendations! And all of these are from Bluesky, so hope you can read 'em all! But, while I liked the other lists, I also had some thoughts. So my 12 critiques are here, which I consider pretty supplemental to Jim's!
And now that you've taken all this advice and are feeling really comfortable with your script, writer-type, what're you gonna do with it?!
What Does an Agent do?
Before I get too far, let me make explicitly clear--I do not have an agent. I've worked with a number of agents. I know lots of creators who have them. But I don't have one myself, so I can only provide so much guidance. Okay, that disclaimer out of the way, what is a literary agent and what do they do?
It's a lot like other forms of agents you might've heard of. Your agent is a person who supports you and represents your interests in business. They are an advocate on your behalf. This means everything from reading your manuscripts to help refine/sell them to reviewing paperwork for you to making sure you're getting paid what you're worth and more. In the book market, there are certain publishers that will almost exclusively review agented submissions--you need to have someone who has been trained to know what the publisher might want and who has access to contacts there to advocate for your work. The reason for this is often to cut down on submissions that otherwise just have to go unanswered and to preserve some level of privacy for editors. Having an agent might not work for everyone, but if you can find someone who you like working with and can afford, they're going to be a lot of help. Agents can get your work to more potential buyers, help identify where your work will best fit in the marketplace, and, again, generally advocate for you.
But just like publishers and editors, not every agent is looking for every type of story. Specific agents, and even whole agencies, can have niches that they are interested in working in and representing. This is really important when we're talking comics. There are some agents that don't really represent cartoonists because they don't do art representation. There are some agents who only do art representation and might not be the right fit if you also wanna write. There are agents who primarily focus on books for middle grade or young adult readers. There are agents who just plain don't do comics. So how do you find an agent who might be a good fit?
Manuscript Wishlist
Manuscript Wishlist (or MS Wishlist) is *an* option for finding your agent, but it's one that I think can be really helpful. The basic idea of MSWL is that the website version has vetted agents and editors who have submitted profiles explaining what they are looking for in submissions. It's built off of a Twitter system where agents and editors tag posts #MSWL to flag the sort of work they're looking for from writers. One of the things I really like about the site is that in addition to details on what the agents and editors are looking for, and how to go about querying them, a lot of folks also take advantage of the sidebars that include things like lists of "what I like" so you can get an even clearer idea of if your work will mesh well with their interests and if your personalities will mesh well while looking to work together.
There are a ton of other resources out there for how to write good queries and each agency/agent/publisher/editor is going to have their own submission guidelines that you'll have to look up and follow--so I won't get into those--but this is a way to start seeing who might be interested in building a relationship with you.
Also, keep an eye on Publishers Marketplace. This is a primary source for what publishing deals are happening. Maybe you want to submit a query to an agent about a talking dog. Might be good to check publishers marketplace to make sure that agent didn't just sell a book about a talking dog.
MSWL Editors
MSWL also includes editors and for similar reasons. Editors have things they're interested in working on and it helps clarify to agents and to unagented folks what sort of titles they might be interested in acquiring. I *do not* currently have a MSWL set up on my own because I am not currently seeking submissions (sorry), but next time I think I might be, I'm going to be looking into it because I know what sort of stories I like to tell and what I would like to see from other folks.
Obviously, if you don't have an agent, double-check that the editor you're submitting to accepts unagented submissions. That's hugely important. But especially in comics, only taking agented submissions is uncommon. And if an editor is making clear what they'd like to acquire, you wanna get it in front of them because that is the most direct pipeline to traditional comics publishing. But it's also worthwhile to remember that because of how agents and editors work together, there's a lot of outreach between the two where editors are searching for talent, but only want to reach out, not be reached out to--especially if you're looking to do work on an existing property, rather than an original.
Now I'm gonna go batten down the hatches and prepare to ride out the rest of the coming storm!
See ya next time!
What I enjoyed this week: Blank Check (Podcast), Dungeons & Daddies (Podcast), Craig of the Creek (Cartoon), Honkai Star Rail (Video game), My Adventures with Superman (Cartoon), The Broken Room by Peter Clines (Book), Crime Scene Kitchen (TV show), Dumbing of Age (Webcomic), Shortpacked (Webcomic--though some of these pop culture strips sure are dated and/or in poor taste!), Solve This Murder (Podcast), Praise Petey (Cartoon), the acoustic Sonic Symphony performance at the Speed Cafe (see below), at time of posting having power and not a lot of rain/hurricane weather, owning (but not having watched yet) the Venture Bros finale movie, getting 3 5-star (the best possible) character pulls in a row in Honkai (but not the character I really wanted, who I only have like 9 days to get now if I can...).
New Releases this week (8/16/2023): Brynmore #2 (Editor) Godzilla: The War for Humanity #1 (Editor) Sonic the Hedgehog #63 (Editor)
Final Order Cut-Off next week (8/21/2023--last day to get your preorders in): Brynmore #3 (Editor) Godzilla: The War for Humanity #2 (Editor) Sonic the Hedgehog: Amy's 30th Anniversary Special (Editor)
New Releases next week (8/23/2023): Godzilla Monsters & Protectors: All Hail the King TPB (Editor--on the latter half)
Announcements: Becca is at Cartoon-a Palooza in Temecula on 9/15 & 9/16. It's a cool free all-ages little con, so come on out and see them!
Wanna support me? Consider joining my Patreon! This week, in addition to this blog (but without the Patreon plugs!) and one of my legacy blogs, I shared for the $10 and up members the script (and some extras) for my Beast Wars 2022 Annual story, "Rhinox's A-Maze-ing Adventure". You can only see it there! And I'll have more scripts, pitches, comics, etc going up in the weeks and months to come! Also coming soon, just coordinating with Becca, we'll be releasing a tease of a new comic we're working on together. It'll be on both our Patreons, but if you like art and adult art in particular, definitely don't miss Becca's either!
Or, you can buy something from my webstore! A lot of what is there is no longer in print and won't be going back to print anytime soon to my knowledge. The stock I have up is pretty much the stock I have. And you can get it signed and personalized and sent to you for a pretty reasonable price which includes shipping. Alternatively, I still have a few things up on eBay and I'm going to be adding a few more!
Sorry to be hyping ways to send me money so much recently, but between rising rent and utility and gas costs, not so rising work hours/pay for Becca and I, and us also trying to plan a wedding for a year from now, money's been tight a lot! I know that's the case all around, and if you have been supporting me in any way, it has not gone unnoticed at all! This week, Becca and I checked out a venue that we really like for the ceremony and reception. So, hoping we can make that happen!
Pic of the Week: I referenced it earlier, but the Sonic Speed Cafe pop-up here in San Diego did a special mini acoustic performance of the Sonic Symphony that's about to be touring the whole world! So we had three musicians in the restaurant playing some Sonic hits! It was a lot of fun!

Enhancing Athletic Performance: A Comprehensive Guide to Sports Nutrition
Eating a healthy balanced diet is an essential component of any exercise program. The quality of the food people eat can break their progress toward their fitness objectives. Sports nutrition is the secret to peak performance and better health, whether they're a professional athlete or just trying to keep in shape. In this blog, let's know about the proper nutrition which fuels performance.
People's awareness of the value of exercise is growing, and the sports industry is developing swiftly. Thus, it is estimated to drive the market expansion. In addition, according to a research report by Astute Analytica, the Global Sports Nutrition Market is likely to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8% over the projection period from 2022 to 2030.
Sports nutrition's significance:
Athletes can prepare for and recover from workouts and contests with the help of adequate nutrition, which increases their total performance. Furthermore, maintaining body weight and increasing the workout effect requires an adequate intake of calories.

The focus of sports nutrition is on the particular dietary requirements for performance. Let's start by talking about which nutrients are crucial for athletes and whether certain supplements are required.
Fats:
Fat serves as the main energy source for low to moderate-intensity activity and fuels the muscles during endurance training. Additionally, it contributes to the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, offers important fatty acids, safeguards vital organs, and improves satiety.
The recommended daily allowance for fat is between 20 and 35 percent of total calories. It is estimated that poly-unsaturated and mono fats make up about 15-20% and 5–10% of this total.
Seeds, nuts, avocados, fatty fish, and extra-virgin olive oil are a few examples of nutrient-dense dietary fat sources.
Protein:
Protein intake has been linked favorably to metabolic, bone, and weight control. Athletes' performance, lean body mass, recuperation, and strength have all been reported to increase with it. Furthermore, research indicates that consuming protein after exercise may maximize muscle recovery and improve strength.
According to research, active adults and athletes need 1.4–2.0 g of protein per kilogram of body weight per day to grow and maintain muscle mass. Higher protein consumption (>3.0 g/kg/d) may benefit body composition.
Red meat, poultry, dairy, fish, eggs, legumes, tofu, and fortified foods are a few examples of dietary sources of protein.
Food categories to eat:
Particular food groups should be a part of a person's diet when it comes to sports nutrition. It is possible to provide their body the energy it requires to function at its peak by consuming a range of nutrient-dense foods. The following foods are among the best to put in a sports nutrition plan:
Whole grains
Healthy fats
Lean proteins
Vegetables and fruits
The vitamins and minerals included in fruits and vegetables can assist the functioning of a person's body. Lean proteins and healthy fats can help them feel full and provide their body the resources it needs to stay healthy, while whole grains give their body slow-burning energy.

How Diet Builds Better Bones: Surprising Findings on Vitamin D, Coffee, and More (Claudia Wallis, Scientific American, Jan 01 2023)
“Calcium is the key nutrient for building bone, and vitamin D enables the gut to absorb calcium from the food we eat, so doctors often recommend D supplements to counteract age-related bone loss.
Today more than a third of American adults ages 60 and older pop this vitamin.
But to the surprise of many, a huge study published this past summer in the New England Journal of Medicine found that taking vitamin D for five years did not reduce the rate of fractures in healthy adults ages 50 and older.
That result built on earlier findings, led by the same team, that D supplements do not improve bone density (or, for that matter, lower the risk of cancer or heart disease).
An editorial accompanying the fracture study declared that it's time for medical professionals to stop pushing these pills and quit ordering so many blood tests for vitamin D levels.
“Food and incidental sun exposure likely provide enough vitamin D for healthy adults,” says endocrinologist Meryl LeBoff of Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, who led the study.
But LeBoff puts an emphasis on “healthy” adults. The study did not focus on those who already have osteoporosis and/or take medications for it.
Such people would be wise to remain on extra vitamin D and calcium, she advises.
What does help maintain strong bones for all of us? The easy answer is foods that are high in calcium, such as dairy products, sardines and tofu.
Health authorities recommend a lot more calcium than most of us routinely get: 1,300 daily milligrams for kids ages nine through 18 who are building bone density for a lifetime, 1,000 daily mg from age 19 to 50 and 1,200 mg for women after 50 and men after 70.
Federal surveys indicate that only 61 percent of Americans and just half of children hit these targets, which, admittedly, takes some effort.
For example, you would need to eat at least three daily cups of plain yogurt or nearly nine cups of cottage cheese to get 1,200 mg of calcium.
Getting it from food is best, LeBoff says, “because there are so many other nutrients, and you have a more continuous absorption than with a pill.””
