We were so afraid it was an inadvertent coincidence, and that after a lifetime of schoolyard teasing, any mention of the great Captain Picard would make Jean-Luc hate us all... Luckily he's a Trekkie like the rest of us ^^ I can only hope my own future children will be as good humored about their inevitable geek names...

No, really, being an intern is a lot more exciting than doing a lot of random organizational nonsense. Really.

may 2012

Despite TCAF's "no costume" rule, many of us nerds donned Homestuck T-shirts and spent many hours in line hoping for a face-to-face with Andrew Hussie. I was one of the weak ones whose pained feet forced me to abandon hope and my place in line. But! It was a super-fun time (not to mention the event is free), so if you're in Toronto next May, you really ought to stop in and see some of your favorite artists in person! Or in some cases, from a short distance... ^^;;

I think every company should invest in a conference table that converts into a pool table.

february 2012 afterwords

In February, YEN PLUS became the first manga magazine to simultaneously publish the English edition of a Japanese series with the release in Japan. (Sorry, SJ Alpha, you are two weeks too slow!)
Tania, Wendy, and Abby here are the three main characters of Soul Eater NOT!: Anya, Tsugumi, and Meme. (Meme has a bit of a memory problem which is why she/I looks so lost.) And my bosses stand in for the witch Shaula and her henchman...
Hopefully we'll have more simul series someday~
