I just got a coffee scoop. Flavors are subtle but I appreciated it more as I got to the end. Service was great. I'll probably get a scoop of something else, though.

EDIT: there is a bonus picture that might get posted when I have time to do some photo editing

Should have gotten the Meloncholy of HoneyDew Suzumiya.

Soooo Fate Zero sucked. The fights were very bad. Nothing even tries to be the level of the first Saber vs Lancer fight. Caster and Berserker were extremely dull fighters. Rider had one moment but it was treated like an aside like it didn’t matter at all. Gilgamesh doesn’t even loving show up like what the gently caress. Like yeah that’s his thing but come on. Nobody likes no sells.

The plot was dumb. Like I mean it was fine. I dunno like it did nothing besides tell the story it was meant to tell.

I unno when I think about it specifically there’s nothing I can say I really disliked but overall it was not good. Besides the fighting which was bad. Also worm guy sucked but he sucked on purpose and the show calls it out but like that doesn’t stop it from sucking. Should have been a movie.

While ostensibly meant to be a prequel with its own story to tell that was built up in the original story, thematically the only important thing that Fate/Zero has to actually say is the downfall of Kiritsugu. It's a story that exists only to show how much of a fuckup he is and therefore why it was so important for Shirou in FSN to ultimately not wind up like him. This has the effect of making the rest of the story and cast quite thin without much to say or do of relevance, and when combined with Zero's rampant misogyny it makes it a story I've liked less and less over the years.

It introducing Waver and Iskander are basically the only actual positive contributions to Fate.

well, its popularity when it got an anime also led to basically every other fate thing after it. obviously fsn was popular in its own right too but its fz that led to the conditions for it to blow up with fgo.

Mountain Time is like, only Arizona, right? Because they ignore Daylight Savings? Dude's wild for asking for commissions via ransom note, but I appreciate how willing he is to reveal his home.

What am I gonna do if I find out where he lives? it's not like I can do anything to someone that has grown up in Mountain Time.

Skipping daylight savings means Arizona alternates between Mountain and Pacific time IIRC.

No, it's just MDT and MST, just like every other time zone?

The pic you linked only includes the Navajo nation part of Arizona, which does observe daylight saving time, btw.

Arizona doesn't observe daylight savings. It stays the same year round and matches up with PDT and MST.

Ah, the image includes places currently on Mountain Time, and the rest of Arizona is on PDT now.

Yes. I don't know where the image is from, but I'm guess it's showing where Mountain Time is right now, which is MDT. This wouldn't be accurate for Arizona, which is why it isn't highlighted. It's an odd distinction, but people conversationally don't specify daylight savings or standard time, they just state the timezone, like how Reik said it alternates between Mountain and Pacific.

As someone residing in the other US state that doesn't have daylight saving, I think that's stupid.

What's the deal between Green and Beige zones? Is the beige zone "We do Mountain Time but we also sometimes do one Daylight Savings" or something?

I dunno, I kinda like it. My only complaints so far is there's no Fit-to-Screen option, and all the issues are on a separate tab, so you can't immediately see them when tapping the manga titles.

And I do wish it still did dual columns for the manga listings that include a blurb.
