Mushoku Tensei is fantastic and I'm sorry I missed that conversation
There's an extremely uncomfortable aspect of that even if I think the actual all-encompassing story is pretty good (read the translated graphic novels)

Anything with middle-aged 'mentally/soul' main character and then female adolescents is massively icky... I don't care what his reincarnated bodies age and appearance is... His mind and memories are completely intact from dying in his mid 30s in Japan

I think I would relate to that more if we spent more time with the protagonist as a middle aged man in the beginning of the show. As the story is laid out though I don't even think about him like that though, which I'm sure is probably intentional. He still acts like a child/teen learning the ways of the world, and most of the time I don't even remember that he is supposed to be that age. And the story is VERY good.

Exactly, the isekai genre seems like a convenient excuse for the author and audience to explore certain fantasies with impunity.

And if the two seasons of anime have followed the MC's tailspin, how much deeper will he dig the hole before the redemption arc begins? I'm still not seeing that he gives a shit about anyone but himself. It's painful
 
First Christmas gift purchase of the year. A Roblox gift card for my nephew (first cousin once removed according to the family tree but he calls me his uncle)

$100 Roblox gift card but got it for 40% off at Target with their current promotion.
I thought gift cards were always exempt from sales

I think it's cause Roblox giftcards are really a virtual currency thing. They're called "Robux" so maybe it's a loophole workaround?

Edit: Also there's less leaks of Black Friday Ads online this year. Which sucks for planning things out. ARGHHHH

Edit of the edit: inb4 Jojo comes in here with a Black Friday Ad connect for each major retailer.
 
I’ve apparently been here for 10 years as of 56 minutes ago.
Mine says I've been here for 13 and while thats unbelievable to me I remember lurking for quite a bit before I even actually registered. I used to be active on the Flyers NHL site forums for a while before finding HF. I thought this was the coolest thing ever. I used to just sit on here for every single workshift for hours. lol
