Looking for newer anime recommendations! Getting back into the hobby after 8 years

Hey everyone! 👋
I’m 30 now and I used to be really into anime and watched a ton of it growing up. I’m pretty familiar with a lot of the older/popular anime, but I kind of fell out of watching regularly about 8 years ago.
I recently got Crunchyroll again and I’m realizing I have no idea what I’ve missed over the past several years 😂
So I’m looking for recommendations for newer anime that are genuinely worth watching! I’m especially interested in things that came out within roughly the last 5–8 years, but I’m open to anything newer.
What are the anime that you’d say are must-watches from the newer generation? What have you absolutely loved?
I’m basically looking for someone to catch me up on what I’ve been missing! 😂
Bonus points if you tell me why you recommend it rather than just dropping a title.
Thanks! ❤️

CRA ignoring mp?

Hello,
I have reached out to my local MP for assistance with an issue I’m having with the CRA. My understanding is that the CRA is expected to respond to inquiries from Members of Parliament in a timely manner, but unfortunately, there has been no response to my MP’s inquiries so far.
My MP first contacted the CRA on June 3rd and followed up again on July 27th. I completely understand that an MP has limited authority over the CRA, and I’m not expecting my MP to be able to influence the outcome of my case. I’m simply hoping that everything is being handled properly and that my MP can do whatever is within her ability to assist or obtain an update.
At this point, I’m wondering what the appropriate next step is if the CRA continues not to respond. Is there anything further my MP can do to escalate the inquiry, or is there another avenue I should pursue when the CRA does not respond to an MP’s requests for information?
I appreciate any guidance you can provide. I understand that there are limitations to what an MP’s office can do, and I’m simply trying to make sure that I have exhausted the appropriate avenues and that my concerns are being properly followed up on.
Thank you for your time and assistance.

One of the coolest things I’ve ever gotten from a concert 🥹
Somehow ended up with one of the band’s chord sheets after the American Football show. I’m still freaking out about it.

Anyone try the licensed IWTV fragrances?

I discovered a fragrance line that did a licensed colab with AMC for interview with the vampire, I was wondering if anyone here had tried them and what they thought and if they were worth it? There’s a pretty steep exchange rate so as interested as I am I was hoping others had tried and could give me their opinion.

How overloaded is the CRA for DTC?

I have been waiting many months I have had multiple delays I was told the target completion date is just to check in with the CRA to see if it’s finished and that it means nothing else? What could cause so much of a hold up if they say they don’t need anything else?

I have a really difficult time with vague and open ended information so the mixed messaging I’m getting from the CRA stresses me out I’m mostly just curious if others have been in the same situation/ what your experience was like.

With Charminar closed, where can I find similar butter chicken and naan?

I just found out that Charminar on Dundas is permanently closed, and I’m honestly so disappointed. 😭 They were my absolute favourite Indian restaurant in London.
Their butter chicken was my go to, but what I’ll miss the most is their garlic naan. I don’t know what they did differently, but it was hands down the best naan I’ve ever had soft, buttery, and always perfect.
Does anyone have recommendations for a place with similar butter chicken and especially similar naan? I’m not necessarily looking for the “best” Indian restaurant overall, just something that scratches the same itch that Charminar did.
Thanks in advance!

What are some sheer polishes with this kind of vibe?

So after exploring a few polishes I learned I really like a sheer formula that has a unique shifts. Clionadh Myrrh is my absolute favorite polish I love the formula so much. Then I saw this haunted polish and I think it’s beautiful too. If anyone knows any other colors of a similar vibe please let me know!

DTC issues

Hey everyone, I know this is an ODSP group, but I’m hoping some people here might have experience with DSO, Passport funding, or the Disability Tax Credit and can help me make sense of something.
I’m not on ODSP because I’m common-law, so I continue to work as much as I can, even though it’s really difficult and I often end up needing short-term disability support.

ODSP would be extremely helpful but because of the significant barriers put in place if you’re in a relationship, I would get nothing. I don’t understand why ODSP thinks it’s reasonable to start clawing back after your partner makes $200 when a person on ODSP can make 1000 before clawing back. Which seems unfair. We wouldn’t be able to afford rent. So now my only other option is DTC which would help at least some.

My question is whether anyone has been approved through Developmental Services Ontario (DSO) and Passport funding, but still been denied the Disability Tax Credit (DTC).
I’m really struggling to understand how these systems can come to such different conclusions.
From my understanding, DSO eligibility is based on significant lifelong limitations in cognitive and adaptive functioning that started before age 18 and have a major impact on independence and daily life. In my case I had formal psychological testing that showed very significant impairments in both areas, with scores around the 5th percentile or lower.
After being assessed, my psychologist told me that I am very debilitated by my disabilities. I also needed significant accommodations throughout school and now at work just to function at all, and even with those supports I’m still much slower and able to do far less than my peers.
Even with medication, therapy, memory aids, and other accommodations, I don’t really see meaningful or consistent improvement. I still struggle a lot with day-to-day functioning and I rely heavily on external support to manage basic parts of life.
Because of this, I was approved for DSO supports including Passport funding for community participation, employment supports, supported independent living, behaviour support services, and an Adult Protective Service Worker.
From what I understand, DSO approval can also place someone into the ODSP prescribed class, meaning if you meet the financial criteria you’re automatically considered medically eligible without needing to go through the full disability adjudication process.
That’s why I’m really confused about CRA’s decision.
On a daily basis my disability has a major impact on how I function. I need support and supervision to take medication reliably. I struggle a lot with understanding and managing money to the point where my partner handles all financial responsibilities including budgeting, bills, and decision making. He also makes sure I get where I need to go safely, helps with food and meal planning, and basically supports my day to day wellbeing because I can’t consistently manage these things on my own.
My memory and processing speed are also severely impaired based on testing, in the lowest percentile range in some areas, meaning most people would be functioning far above me in those cognitive tasks.
I’m just trying to understand how it’s possible to qualify for extensive disability supports through DSO but still be found not eligible for the Disability Tax Credit. If anyone has had a similar experience or successfully appealed a decision like this, I’d really appreciate hearing how it went.

I made my first ever nail polish purchases!

made a post here a few days ago asking for advice as someone completely new to nail polish, and I wanted to share what I ended up getting! I’m honestly shocked by how
quickly Mooncat⁠ shipped—my order arrived so fast. I tried to keep things minimal since I want to get my money’s worth and actually use everything up, so I ended up with three polishes and a top coat. The sparkly blue and top coat I got at the drugstore I already owned a nail strengthener and cuticle balm, and this already feels like so much to me 😅

Shades are death trumpet and jewel beetle from moon cat and frosted fantasy from Essie

New to nail polish

Hi all! I’m pretty new to nail polish and indie polishes in general, and I’d love some advice from people who’ve been into this longer than me.
Ideally, I’d like to build a small collection of around 5 shades to start with. I’m curious what brands people love the most, and whether you’d recommend any of the brands I’ve been looking at.
Brands I’ve heard about so far:
Moth and Moon
Holo Taco
Cracked
Abomination Cosmetics
Mooncat
From what I’m seeing, I’m really drawn to unique shades — especially colors that shift, glow, shimmer, or change depending on lighting/angle. I seem to like weird, moody, magical-looking polishes more than standard crème shades.
These are the specific shades I’m eyeing right now, in case anyone has experience with them:
Mooncat:
Garden of Evil
A Midsummer’s Dream
Artemis’ Deathkiss
Mechanical Tree
Take Me to Your Leader
Jewel Beetle
Death Trumpet
Holo Taco:
Cereal Killer
Cat’s Evasion
Hydropower
Moth and Moon Nails:
Shrouded
Out of Time
Maypole Dance
Let’s Take a Detour
Hedge Witch
Florals
Cherry Thing
Abomination Cosmetics:
Strawberry Patch
Strawberry Lemonade
Call of Cthulhu
Corvidae
Anura
Which shades feel truly unique or special to you?
And if you were only choosing 5 polishes for someone just starting out, what would you pick?

New to all this and overwhelmed.

Hey all! I just learned about KOReader, and it’s safe to say I’m a bit overwhelmed 😅

I’m curious—what are the coolest or most useful things to add/setup? Any must-have plugins, tweaks, or features you’d recommend?

I’d also love any tips and tricks for customizing it and making everything look nice/prettier!

I’d also really appreciate any resources (guides, videos, posts, etc.) that helped you learn. I’m especially interested in learning more about how to use it with Calibre.

I also have a learning disability, so if anyone has beginner-friendly explanations, step-by-step guides, or can explain things in simpler terms, I’d really appreciate the extra help.

Can someone explain what calibre is?

Hey all!

I’m hearing a lot about this and I did download it but I just don’t fully understand what it is and what I can do with it?

Is there some benefit to using this vs just dropping epubs into your kobo?
What am I supposed to use it for?

Fished third kit! Tone cheer Onsen Saga

this year I became interested in building book books I have ASD/ADHD and learning disabilities and this can be a barrier to enjoying hobbies but my fiancée is so sweet and helps me build them together. We just finished the tone cheer Onsen Saga. It took a lot longer than the time the box says it would take to build. We both love studio Ghibli and decided to marathon them on VHS! It took 5 Ghibli movies to complete this kit.

The next kit we want to build will probably be cats crossing.

My experance with bigme highbreak dual

So I recently got the Bigme HiBreak Dual, and I’m loving it so far! I just wanted to share how I’ve been using mine. For refrance i got the colour version with the largest memory that was offered.

​I decided to use it alongside my regular phone. I mostly use the Dual at night, a few hours before bedtime, to reduce my exposure to blue light and build healthier sleep habits. I have ADHD, and regular phones have always been a massive distraction for me, especially at night.

​I also really enjoy using it at work to make checklists it makes a fantastic memory aid! Plus, I can doodle on it when things are quiet. It’s also become my go-to e-reader for on the go. I have a Kobo, but this fits right in my pocket, which makes it so much easier to bring everywhere.

​I don't mind using it as a secondary device at all. Most places I go have Wi-Fi, so even if my main phone is away, it's no big deal to send a quick message to a friend or family member. I can also see this being the perfect travel companion; I plan on using it as my only phone when abroad with an eSIM to avoid any roaming fees.

​If I had any complaints, the screen isn't quite as crisp as my Kobo, and the colors look pretty washed out, but I don't mind all that much. Also, the dyslexia friendly font was a bit of a pain to figure out how to install, and it still doesn't look quite right to me.

Looking for a cool-toned goth eyeshadow palette!

I’m trying to find an eyeshadow palette that leans heavily cool-toned and works for both everyday goth looks and more dramatic looks.I’d really like to avoid having to buy and switch between multiple palettes if possible. My goal is to find one versatile palette that I can use daily

Ideally I’d love a palette with:
Grays (light to dark)
Black
Pastel purple/lavender
Mint green
Pastel Cool-toned blues
And a white
A mix of matte shades for everyday wear
Bonus points if it also includes:
Shimmers, metallics, or multichromes/chromes
Sparkly shades for more dramatic or fantasy-inspired looks
I tend to prefer softer, cool-toned colors over warm tones, and I’d love something that can go from subtle goth to more elaborate looks without needing multiple palettes. I am also open to the idea of building a custom palette if anyone knows of any places that allow this.

I used to own the Kat Von d pastel goth palette and I really enjoyed and miss that pallet I currently am using the blue pat McGrath mothership.
Does anyone have recommendations?
