Pretty much all affordability discourse could benefit from just posting this chart.

If you're in the better off America, all the luxury goods you want in excess are for the most part much cheaper. If you're in the poorer America, most of the shit you need to live/grow is more expensive.

Instagram used to be annoying because of the narcissism. Now it's annoying because it reduces the past to bite-size clips and regurgitates them for likes. It's like an attention-hungry dog endlessly eating another dog's puke and puking it up again while being bafflingly praised by halfwit onlookers.

Zohran Mamdani won NYC Mayor while unapologetically:
-Calling Israel's siege on Palestinians a genocide
-Upholding ICC's warrant to arrest Netanyahu
-Upholding BDS as a legitimate form of free speech
-Demanding Palestinian self-determination
-Securing a plurality of Jewish voters

This is the future

We found a CD in our archives containing dozens of unused voice lines from MLB Slugfest 20-03 rejected by the MLB. Here's some of our favorites.

The Art of Angel’s Egg reprint (released this month to coincide with the 4k restoration) is a great way to revisit a long out of print book. For fans of Mamoru Oshii and Yoshitaka Amano it’s worth picking up though like the name suggests it’s really just artwork, very little text.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWCl... hey if you like Sublo and Tangy Mustard you'll probably like Kevin Doan (voice of Tangy Mustard) and me being interviewed on Picnic in the Park! we talk about Sublo, a little about Bojack, the state of the animation industry, Dragon Ball, Kenny vs Spenny and more.

I hope it's ok to post about this now: I recently joined the board of directors at TAIS (Toronto Animated Images Society)! TAIS is a major hub for the indie animation scene in Toronto, providing resources, support and community to a lot of local artists. I'm excited to be part of it!

I keep seeing blatant whole-hog ripoffs of Shin-chan and Yuasa. clearly I love that stuff too but at a certain point it's like "ok yes we all know this internationally beloved series and world-renowned auteur. you got anything else?"

I know it's a fool's errand to expect anything from the media but "President posts video of himself dumping diarrhea on America" is an important thing to call attention to for a dozen reasons

I'm visiting the UK soon, please advise me on what to see! definitely staying in Cheltenham and visiting Bristol, staying in London as well as probably up to Yorkshire for a bit. any cool shops, museums, exhibits, cafes, pubs, parks, whatever you got!

The cool thing about indie animation is that you can make whatever you want however you want without being bound by the restrictions of a studio/network/etc. But then everyone just wants to show you how close they can get to making something that looks like the stuff on TV.

Mascot work for a 24-hour sandwich shop is a 24/7 calling for Sublo and Tangy Mustard! @aaronlong.bsky.social crafts snappy dialog & superb acting into a painful sitcom about two friends whose costumes & job are their whole lives.
