If anyone wants some fleshed out references and details of my characters designs, this is the thread of links to their respective folders!
I'm still messing around with these folders as we speak, but I have comments on in case you're looking for something specific

Random but I posted Shana in a character design subreddit and I'm surprised how many people said her having long hair isn't practical or believable
I think it shows how fighting game and anime pilled I am that hair practicality is something I have never thought about in character design ever

More convinced in it than ever considering what that investment actually is is Bob Iger using Disney funds to prop up OpenAI which is a company he is personally invested in from other sources.
@patstaresat.bsky.social now that Disney wants to use AI to make entertainment, do you hold the same stance on the AI bubble?

When I saw Sinners the first time it was pretty great, especially when folks were cracking jokes about Cornbread going to take a piss.
I saw it a second time in IMAX and some asshole college kid yelled out "Stop simping" when Sammie was getting some to dead silence

Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?
Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.

It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

I have a confession to make
I really don't like character designs with high ponytails
I made it lore that Shana hates having her hair put up specifically because of that lmao

I hate that the RE protags switched numbers. Chris was odd number entries, Leon was even, until Chris showing up in 6, 7, and 8 fucked up the pattern and now Leon is in 9

so, this right here? this is one of the absolutely most lawless, brazenly unconstitutional impeachable offenses ever committed by any president other than trump in the history of our country.
like, this is an open and shut case. and it's a case which targeted *republicans.*

This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.
I don’t know how else to say it…

For @prospect.org, I wrote about SINNERS as the movie of 2025 (not necessarily the best, but certainly the one that best fused popularity and acclaim) and why Hollywood treated its success like a threat. prospect.org/2025/12/11/s...
The Hit Hollywood Didn’t Want - The American Prospect
Ryan Coogler’s bloodsucker blockbuster is all about Black creative freedom. No wonder the industry saw it as a threat.

So much of the hideous bullshit of modern business makes a lot more sense after you realize that the “customer“ for the products being peddled aren’t actual human beings that go “Oh, that looks good, I’ll buy that,” but the investors shoveling money into the burn pits of these go-nowhere companies.
