Oh, goody. It looks like the Internet Archive may be under yet another DDoS attack, a good time to remind everyone that two versions of Cayce's "This is NOT Greatest Site" are currently being built.

Kakidokei, formerly known as Kame, who was the official co-creator of the original NGS of nearly 20 years ago, is uploading here. Currently, all Buck-Tick, The Mortal, and Schwein lyrics are up, as well as a number of magazine and interview translations. Check them first.

This is NOT Greatest Site

This is NOT Greatest Site

Bringing J-rock translations and culture like it's 2006 again.

A mirror site of the original Geocities site, which may be most familiar to fans before the site was lost a couple of years ago, is being built here. Currently, features, articles, and guides are being prioritized to send translation-seekers to Kakidokei's site first.

no you have to contribute to your fandom if you don't want it to die. most fandoms die because people say 'it's so sad watching the fandom die when the hype dies' without doing anything about it. I'm not saying you have to push out 100k word slow-burn fic, I'm not saying you have to make fan art or gif sets or edits or anything. I'm just saying we as a community should contribute to our fandom if we don't want it to die, and by contributing, I'm talking about giving kudos, commenting on your favorite fics, reblogging your favorite art and just talking about your favorite characters. that's enough to keep a fandom alive. that's the most effective way to keep a fandom alive in my humble opinion.

fandoms die because people stop talking about it, fandoms die because people stop engaging with fan content once the hype is gone. what I'm saying is, mainstream media's hype may be gone, but our fandom can stay alive and thriving if us as a community don't let it die.

I am finally watching the new BT movie (New World 1 to be precise) so little spoiler regarding Imai below the cut

He's balancing his fucking cane on 1 finger... and I thought he couldn't turn into more of a circus artist.

(Photo of my screen instead of a screenshot cause I am watching on PS4. My disc drive doesn't support bluray 😭)

Buuut at least that's an excuse to watch big screen.

I LOVE being autistic and trying to communicate because every time it’s
