I have zero connection to animation other than having watched it, but this article about technical lighting effects in cel animation and how these analog processes created effects almost impossible to replicate digitally is INCREDIBLY interesting!

"So, you got detention for punching a Nazi. Good job, soldier!"

The depths of legal arguments:

Punch Nazis erryday

Me at the end of go-live week

The upstairs pup is hanging out with Stan, and I swear she’s GOTTA have some husky in her, with all this Chewbacca noise…

The sneering condescension of right-wingers that can barely string two words together at this clearly smart and articulate woman tells you all you need to know about their misogyny. How many Republicans could extemporaneously answer a question like that with depth and clarity?

Do not meddle in the affairs of wine moms, for they aren’t subtle at all and quick to anger…

Prison isn't even the moderate position anymore, it's the unacceptably lenient position.

It continually amazes me that we took the original thing computers could absolutely do better than humans (and were NAMED after) and made them bad at it. (Reading a book on the Revolutionary War and wanted to know what the British Army enlistment bonus was worth as a fraction of annual pay)

I mean, MY thought would be medical experimentation for the remainder of their lives for the benefit of the rest of us. Let the punishment fit the crime, and all that…

everyone shut UP it's gromit's birthday HAPPY BIRTHDAY GROMIT

Wake up, babe, new political alignment just dropped: CUMMUNISM

Whaaaaaaaaaaat? youtu.be/HgMbkitzhEM?...

This headline is violence.

There is no way that this backfires on WB. Absolutely no way.

All my machis, hachied.

“...but enough about Donald Trump.”

Yeah, and child rapists promise candy in their vans, too.

Anyone who defends this needs to be in the ground themselves.

“Jonathan Swift penned a bold, unconventional approach to relieving hunger among the poor, but will anyone in power listen?”

Looks like SOMEONE needs to have their posting fingers broken like their jaw.

Okay, and then, to improve your odds, we can roll a bunch of bet pools together into a "securitized wager tranche". These will just bring cash flow because we're offering outrageous odds, but don't worry about our exposure, nobody wins these things anyway...

Another weekend, another reason to love the city. Irene's Bagels, on Montrose, has absolutely delicious coffee and fresh bagels every morning.

Bring Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie on, cowards!

“This isn’t the ‘getting bombed’ that *I* like…”

Glad to see Peanut is willing to take a stand

LMAO oh my God

The perfect opportunity to bust out the Groucho Marx quote "I wouldn't want to be a part of any club that would have me as a member."

The two best Bluesky posters secretly pine for each other. Skeeted Rivalry.

My wife just sent me this. It’s nice when your spouse just GETS you, y’know?

All of this. Defiance and solidarity on the world stage!

LMAO okay, this is A Choice™

I’m sorry, there are ways to apply for a job that AREN’T this?

The entire sequence of clips is incredible, but I'm just marveling that Trump has made me, an atheist, aghast at the level of heresy and blasphemy that he's engaging in at the National Prayer Breakfast.

Turned to my wife earlier this morning and said "No work, only rest in bed?" with a sad face, if you're wondering where my head is right now.

Looking at this new “ski mountaineering” sport they’re including in this year’s Winter Olympics, I see that it must be another attempt to knock biathlon off the “most sadistic winter olympic sport” throne

As a pilot, the reputation of pilots as suave lady-killers is at least fifty years out of date.

the epstein files make it abundantly clear that individuals having this degree of wealth is directly the cause of every horrible thing in the world, and any coherent vision of a better future cannot involve billionaires existing. They have to go, be it taxed out of existence or otherwise removed.

It was about that time the David Duke boy knew that he was in a heap of trouble...

So TIL there's a large warbirds preservation group. They were formed in 1953, in Alabama (currently based in Texas) as the "Confederate Air Force". The name was a tongue-in-cheek joke, rather than any sort of honorific. Very much more in the vein of Foghorn Leghorn than Robert E. Lee (ctd)

they should make a movie series about how it’s irresponsible to use technology to mess with the natural order of things for profit

No notes 🤌🏻

I attended U of IL and lived in Champaign-Urbana for over a decade. I love the cities and the university. The poisonous little fascist fucks behind this need to be expelled INSTANTLY for this shit.
