I noticed this as well, and also the horrendous joint problems of the kicking horse in the stable. Horses are hard, but holy shit titmouse animations and @criticalrole.bsky.social why you gotta do horses so dirty?
sfaira.bsky.social Oliwia Białek @sfaira.bsky.social · 2d
Listen, I know animation is hard. I know background objects don't always have to be perfect in animation. But I beg artists to draw a horse from time to time, do not follow anime in this trend of absolutely horrendous horses.
a screencap fragment of The Mighty Nein show featuring extremely non-anatomical horse. It has zero front muscles and too big head look like it attaches directly to legs. There's no withers or arch in the back at all, and the whole animal is very short. Neither the bridle, nor the carrige gear has full sense and there's a blob of a saddle postioned right in the middle of the back. Overall it looks like no horse was referenced during drawing this.

Forget-Me-Nots Kitty -2022

[ #art #illustration #botanimals ]
A digital illustration of a white and tabby kitty lying in a grassy place. The kitty has forget-me-not flowers sprouting from its body. The kitty is looking over its shoulder at you with large green eyes as if to say, “AI kills creatives. Support human artists.” Or maybe it is saying “I’m hungry.” Yeah probably that.

Happy whale explosion day to those who celebrate! 🐋
opb.org OPB @opb.org · 12d
On this day 55 years ago, blubber went boom at the Oregon Coast.

That's when officials made the legendary decision to blow up a dead whale.

Here's a look back at the explosive piece of Oregon lore with a 2020 story by OPB's Tiffany Camhi written ahead of the whale of a tale's 50th anniversary.
‘It was like a blubber snowstorm’: Why Oregon blew up a whale in 1970
The exploding whale is a piece of Oregon lore that just won’t go away. It’s one of those real-life stories that just sounds too strange to be real.

ICE out of Oregon. Get gone Gestapo.
#resist
opb.org OPB @opb.org · 13d
Recent speculation that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement might be planning a new base of operations on the Oregon Coast arose, in part, because of a vague inquiry by a government contractor last week.
Inquiry from defense contractor spurred concern about ICE facility on Oregon Coast
A letter to the City of Newport last week suggested that unspecified federal operations are planned for December.
