Hiiii. I'm not really sure how this happened, but last night I wrote basically a whole article in one sitting! I couldn't unlock if I tried! I guess I had a lot on my mind! That's why it's good to sit down and start. I've got a new article about the currently hot new comic, D'Orc by Brett Bean. I am really in the weeds with comics right now, in a fun way! So that's why I keep writing about them.
By the way, I started reading Naruto for the first time. I only caught it sporadically on TV back then, but I can't really say I'm going in blind. I mean, everyone has seen or heard a few things about Naruto in life. I read the first volume and I'm really liking it. It's funny how old school it is, but it's also just like some of the shonen manga that come out now. I guess some stuff never changes.

Hey everybody! Well, this site went a little bit on the backburner this month. But don't think I haven't been doing much. First, I have a fun helping of YouTube videos, including some shorts which I have been having a ton of fun making! Though, if you're reading this here, you've probably already seen them or heard about them through Bluesky.
Next, I have been working on my drawing skills. This has been really exciting and enjoyable for me. Right now, the fastest and easiest way to see my drawings is Newgrounds! NG and Bluesky are where I'll be posting my decent drawings. I also want to thank Mike and Catgirl Island for regularly, and enthusiastically, hosting my artwork in the Guest Gallery. Meowza, what an honor!
Right now, I'm splitting myself between all of these things, so no one thing has been super regular or 'the main thing'. So it goes, though! By the way, I recently finished my read of Yugioh, and it was amazing, so if I get cracking on a new article, that'll be the next one most likely. But who knows.
My friend Alli just did a special post on her site about Pokemon Gold, Silver, And Crystal. Who could say no to that?

Oh my goodness netizens, HAPPY NEW YEAR! I was supposed to have some new stuff for you all, but I got very sick with a nasty cold the day after Christmas. So, that really sucked and slowed everything down. Almost no writing, no YouTube, etc...
I have a fun(?) new post Jane Parker's Guide to Discovering and Buying Comics. This was a doozy to write up but I really enjoyed it. This is everything I do to shop and find out what's coming out in the world of comics and manga! I always feel the need to include both... it seems like a lot of people are only interested in one. I like to think the comics world is one big family though. Hopefully my guide makes SOME sense to somebody...
It's only this week where I'm starting to get the "Wow, 2026..." feeling. I've been posting visibly online and doing lots of stuff for some time now. I have posts here from the end of 2023. Jeez. Anyway, I'm really happy to update the site again after so long. I am still loving my Linux Mint setup, and I did get my Switch battery mostly fixed. I have been playing so much Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate, which is probably the best game ever made.
I'm really sleepy, so, see you all later!

My Nintendo Switch battery is swelling! Noooo! After eight and a half years! My precious baby! Baby come back...you can blame it all-on-me.
My yearly awards are back! This time with a slightly reduced scope because, well, I just didn't want to talk about some of the same terrible things I have the last two years. There is a new worst anime award though, so you could take a look for that. :3
I'm currently enjoying the slowness of our holiday season. I was going a little crazy with that much free time, but I think my chakras are centered now. Happy holidays, everyone!

The holidays are right around the corner! Thank god. Last week, I did upload a special YouTube video where I show off some Zeta Gundam stuff. Soon I'll be showing some Uma Musume doujins there as well, which I bet many of you will find exciting!
New article today is about the increasing gamblification in the comic book industry, which is part of a growing trend in this crap infesting our lives. It's a short one, but I think it's a good piece.
The Linux post below ended up being a huge hit on Bluesky. I think Linux is the talk of the town right now, but I'd still like to thank everyone for the great response and sharing of that article. I'm still loving it, by the way!
I didn't make anything special out of it, but I recently replayed Jak 3 on PlayStation 2 for the hundreth time. It's a comfort game of sorts, not very challenging at all or as well paced as Jak 2. But it's a great time nonetheless.

I usually forward date these posts by a day, but I'm actually writing and uploading this on Halloween in the afternoon. Happy Halloween! I hope you get a nice treat. My treat has been my new Linux set up, which I have been loving. Now you can read all about it with the power of yapping. If you're a Bluesky follower of mine, you probably noticed I wouldn't stop talking about Linux (Mint, specifically). I'm getting ready to upload this with the Neocities CLI, which I've only done one other time. It feels nice and fast on Linux, though it can be done without much hassle on Windows to my recollection.
I'm thinking about getting back into Gunpla. I've also got some interesting Uma Musume doujin books coming sometime in the next month. Hehe, I've been splurging quite a bit lately. I haven't built a Gundam model in 10 years, so I'm not sure about all the improvements and innovations that have been made. Maybe I'll write about that and some fun memories?
You might notice the gray color on the site is darker. I've been meaning to adjust it for a while, because I run my monitors pretty dark, I see it differently. Everything seems bright when I view the site on other device. Hopefully it looks a little more like how I intend.

I've been quite hard at work on so many things lately! First off, I have a fresh new article of decent meaning. Jane Parker Vs Mobile Games is here, where I talk about my experience getting into Uma Musume! It was kind of rough, but here I am.
Second, I do have a new YouTube video with the much improved camera. This one is getting close to 300 views, which I find to be very awesome. The new camera is working great, the footage is so, so much better looking. Phew!
Lastly, you're probably aware that Microshit is officially discontinuing support for Windows 10. Yesterday morning, I actually went ahead and tried out Linux Mint on my machine, and so far I've loved it. I might be turning into one of those Linux girls. I'll keep you all updated on that, but this could be the last update done from Windows! I have no particular desire to stay on it, and haven't thought of anything I MUST have it for. But, perhaps some time and more testing will reveal issues. I want to thank my friend Aubrey for encouraging the idea of trying out Linux.
