Giant Robot Store and GR2 News

First photo, my friend Julia got me these from Japan. Powerful minty eye drops. I’ve written about them before, and was disappointed at the weakness of one of my choices. These are supposed to be powerful. The one on the left looks strong, but in the end, it’s medium. Much better than the eye drops I’m currently using which are too weak. Zi has high marks for power.

Artist Saelee Oh offered to come over and cook on my 1950s O'keefe and Merritt. I wondered if it was out of guilt because she was super late on some editorial writing for Giant Robot. She says it's neighborly. Either way, I was hungry, and she cooks well. I hope the guilt comes over her more. I'll eat well that way. She even did dishes!

Artist Saelee Oh offered to come over and cook on my 1950s O’keefe and Merritt. I wondered if it was out of guilt because she was super late on some editorial writing for Giant Robot. She says it’s neighborly. Either way, I was hungry, and she cooks well. I hope the guilt comes over her more. I’ll eat well that way. She even did dishes!  She made seitan and kale, and salad with salsa and beans and no dressing. The brown rice, she bought. She did a great job very quickly. She knows nutrition well, so this must be a very balanced meal.
