Full disclosure: I've been doing contract work for Funimation (aka AnimeLab down under and Wakamin in parts of Europe) and they're debuting a new anime series about a young girl who brings joy and adventure into her life with the purchase of a Honda Super Cub. It's a genre of anime I'd call "soothing." Definitely brings back memories of buying my CT90 as a teenager. First episode is up. Enjoy!

So I mostly proofread their social media posts (yes, I get easier tasks and more money as I get older) but one of my favorite projects is editing the close captions on their promotional videos ... here's one with Lauren Moore, who is easy on the eyes:

I'm still a cager, but I did pick up a 2018 Ford Focus ST ... which I got to play with in the twisties of northern Arkansas and southern Missouri last week.  My goal was to buy a manual transmission car (in this case, a hot hatch) before they became extinct.
However, I'm a little too used to sequential gearboxes, so a few shifting gate fails ("Wait ... where's third again?").

Ok, I gotta ask. If she doesn’t have any money, how did she get the Cub?

A totally different reality than what we sods endure.
