Ngl I've been feeling very unmotivated to draw lately but I'm gonna try and get back into the groove of things real soon, in the meantime I'm gonna use this as an opportunity to watch and listen to some things I've not yet gotten to

I've been getting a lot of questions re: chronic pain + art lately and I'm begging people to consider regular tablets over screen ones, and don't hunch over them. They take some getting used to but they allow for much better posture and reduced strain!

Remember when Animaniacs 2020 prided itself on being feminist yet had less female characters, mostly men writers room and had writing decisons that are ironically more misogynistic than a show produced in the 90s lol.

I always thought McKimson was a little under appreciated when it comes to the LT directors. You always see people crediting jones for certain things like Bugs’ design when in reality it was McKimson who gave bugs his signature look. Not to mention, how Foghorn and Taz have become so iconic now.

yall remember… companies dont make art, people do. there is no disney art, there is no unreal or tencent art. they create a wrapper around someone else’s art. find out who makes the stuff you love

I feel like "90's cartoon style" has become the new "anime style" as in that people generalize it to a specific style not knowing a lot of them are pretty different art style wise

also we should be thankful bronies didn't exist in the 60s

Nelly's Folly (1961) predicted cancel culture if you think about it the satire here is very timeless

Happy anniversary to the Looney Tunes franchise. Warner Bros. debuted this series of theatrical shorts on April 19, 1930. Their legacy is everlasting. Bugs Bunny and a cast of cartoon stars are proud to be a part of American animation, film and pop culture history. #LooneyTunes #America250

I’m watching that superman movie from last year rn and oh my god it’s so fucking ugly why was this so beloved it looks hideous

Look I get that the john k fanboys are annoying but that doesn't mean the beanmouth art style isn't a problem cuz it very much is, having so many shows with nearly identical art styles for well over a decade thus far is objectively bad for the medium stop dismissing facts as "bigot talking points"

LRT BSKY DDOSSED THEMSELVES because of a fucking vibecoded glitch AHAHAHA the outage was their own fucking fault!!!! AKSHOEALLY.... Never fucking stop clowning this site's staff for being proud of their AI usage. Hahahaha

Duckos Oh, and Happy 89th Birthday yesterday! #daffyduck #looneytunes

Happy birthday, crazy darnfool duck

Do you think back in the 60s, audiences viewed the looney tunes watching television as the "Homer get Ipad" of its time?

Happy 89th birthday, you screwy duck. Here's a clip from one his best films where he's up against a guy with a pen who screws him over in every sort of way imaginable. Cartoon: "Duck Amuck" (1953, Chuck Jones)

Happy 89th anniversary to the amazing marvelous stupendous colossal tremendous gigantic astounding unbelievable spectacular and phenomenal Daffy Duck!

how you know zohran mamdani is doing well. the billionaires and capitalist class fucking us all over are scared

Bluesky is just pre muskrat twitter but for tumblr brained liberals and/or fandom millennials and zoomers. To be frank the only reason I'm still here is because all the other platforms are somehow worse.

More good news!

No matter how many times I watch a Max Fleischer cartoon from the early '30s, I marvel at the endless flow of creativity and beautiful rubbery motion. True visual jazz (and the actual jazz on the soundtrack, courtesy of Cab Calloway in this case, doesn't hurt either!).

"animation is cinema" mfs when animation is in the cinema

The previous bargain of “we pay for your healthcare so you can be loyal to us” is breaking down because they want more money

Medicare for All is legitimately an issue of job security

this shit is the mark of the beast

1983 was a damn good year for popular music filled with so many classics and very few duds, so few in fact that I could only think of 5 I outright disliked and here they are, this time with descriptions as to why(going forward I’ll be doing this with all the best and worst lists)

30 years ago today, Principal Skinner purchased fast food to disguise as his own cooking at an unforgettable luncheon with Superintendent Chalmers. #TheSimpsons episode “22 Short Films About Springfield” first aired April 14, 1996.

Didn't think metv toons was successful enough to encourage competition but apparently hasbro does as they're launching their own broadcast tv channel focused on old cartoons at some point, if they had anything actually worth watching in their library I might've cared but as is count me out.

Redraws I don’t really think any of these are better or worse, they’re just more consistent and stylistically cohesive now

these later Jones shorts made post-golden age are so fucking boring it makes me wish he took his dignity and retired when it was right Like wow are they bad, the animation is good in them tho lol

A lot of people are quick to say they *can't* give up Amazon. Okay, don't. Just don't make it your default. That thing you threw in your basket that you can get elsewhere? Get it elsewhere. If everyone still buying from Amazon reduced their spending by 20%, Bezos would be screaming bloody murder

The 2000s are the new 80s in how people make surface level nostalgia garbage based on it despite never living in it

Smiling Friends run may have been short but it stayed good thru the end so I cant complain too much

You know what doesn't get its support unceremoniously pulled by a tech company? Fuckin' books, brother

Smiling Friends style humor has always been with us all along.

Leave it to tumblr brained chronically online cartoon fans to go completely off the rails over the non issue that is the digital circus finale being in theaters early like grow up already

I think people need to realize indie means “independent control” and not “niche”

When it comes to the animation world, there is something that brushed me the wrong way for the past decade and it's when people call an animator or an animation "bad" because it's not smooth like sakuga/anime ; vintage disney era. All animations does not need to be smooth to be called "good".

sometimes i think about how much comedy has changed over the decades and am fucking just, stunned at not just how well looney tunes gags hold up but at how fresh they feel

Early regular show is genuinely hilarious those first couple seasons are top tier cartoon comedy

From 2018. Originally captioned “Joe Rockhead runs into his other selves”

These mfs really thought they were the next termite terrace it's funny I for one still enjoy those shows, but there is a smugness to them I don't really miss

Cartoon reviewers: "Support Animation! Animation is Cinema!" The popular cartoon reviewers suspiciously when Looney Tunes: The Day The Earth Blew Up came out, which was in cinema:

So now they’re sending their own civilians to off to fight a war that that our own government started. I truly wish nothing but the worst things in life to happen to the people currently in power making these decisions.

Free Palestine 🇵🇸 Free Lebanon 🇱🇧 Free Congo 🇨🇩 Free Sudan 🇸🇩 Free Kanaky 🇳🇨 Free Kurdistan Free Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 Free Hawai’i Free Eastern Samoa Free Indigenous Turtle Islanders Free the Rohingya Free the Baloch people Hands off Iran Hands off Yemen End genocide, imperialism & colonialism.

The High Fructose Adventures of Annoying Orange is, by sheer technicality, the first CN show created by a trans woman

Insane way to find out the annoying orange creator is trans. Also I'm sorry for her for having to live with being the person who made the annoying orange

New internet rule if you see an uninspired cast of colorful and marketable characters 9 times out of 10 it’s for a shitty horror project
