these entertainment mergers have to stop. a diverse and distributed market is healthy; monopolies aren't.

"My final challenge, you must endure 10 minutes of people who don't know shit about animation talk about the technicalities of animation"

i think the thing that first truly got me into Sonic the Hedgehog was issue 3 of the Archie miniseries Sonic Quest. As far as an introduction to what this whole franchise business about you could do way worse, plus the story itself is a lot of silly action fun on the Death Egg

Most of all, drop that "we're fucked" mindset. Time to leave that doomerism bullshit behind and focus on doing good.

"yes, they were a hitler fanboy, but it was 5 years ago"

i don't care how long ago it was. heinous actions are heinous actions, and i really prefer not to support people with that sort of history regardless of whether it aligns with their current self

MAKE AN EMERGENCY DONATION to Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate there and they are overwhelmed with requests. CO borders KS, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out. GO DONATE. tcpipeline.org

Absolutely nothing this fascist-ass government is doing is a "distraction" or whatever the fuck from anything. They have a billion fucking atrocities they want to commit against anyone who isn't cis, white, straight, male, and Christian, and they're gleefully partaking in all of them at once.

Even if you don't live in Kansas, we should all be really loud about Kansas right now. We aren't "on the road to" fascism. We are there. Trying to make human beings illegal is straight up evil shit and we as people shouldn't stand for it.

While cancelling Nitro is all well and good, just a reminder that age verification itself won't go away as a whole unless KOSA, the SCREEN Act, and tons more are buried and done with. Please contact your reps if you don't want this to spread to other platforms.

I've written up a brief script for anyone who wants to call or write your representatives regarding this bill (yes, even the ones you think won't care). PLEASE DO THIS IF YOU ARE ABLE. This bill *cannot* pass. You can find your representatives here: www.congress.gov/members/find...

There's no ethical way to use Twitter in 2026. Get off of it. Now.

Hey yall this is your chance to show the trans community you really are an ally and you're not just saying it for brownie points!! -Do not support ANY of this -JK Rowling has said on numerous occasions that her income goes DIRECTLY into anti-trans legislation in the UK -Seriously. NONE. Of it.

Kaizo Slumber - Tummyache makes a very great "going to work" album

"no one wants to work anymore" i just saw on tumblr an ad for AI saying "Stop Hiring Humans, the era of AI Employees is here", so it seems more like it's that no one wants to HIRE anymore

cliff climbing!

a quick stop to smell the flowers 🛸🏵️

Colorful structures (2022)

had a dream where my grandmother told me "the forest is 128kbps" and i replied "actually i think the forest is flac quality" and she was flabbergasted

another reason i know the whole enshittification thing isnt just nostalgia goggles is no greater than 15 yrs ago it was widely understood that sharing your personal information with e-strangers is very very bad. now gigacorps have literal children doing it & nobody bats an eye. adware is normalized

TW// ABUSE, SA Do be aware that the creator of Vac Woman, Andrew Dickman, known online as AWD, has a history of misconduct towards others that he's made efforts to cover up. While much of this occurred years ago, I do encourage you to read over the posts below, if only to be informed of his history

What are some good albums that are licensed under CC-BY Attribution? Yanno, stuff I could use in the bg of videos and streams and possibly more. Music with Non-commercial licenses I would rather avoid given video/streaming sites frequently put commercial ads on non-monetized videos anyways

i didn't choose the power-user life, the power-user life chose me.

i kinda wish bandcamp did what discogs does and adds the shipping cost to the base cost of the physical item on the page, to ease the burden of having to estimate before commiting to buying it

There have got to start being serious consequences for these companies.

Pressure VRchat now, they also use Persona. Vrchat uses persona. Vrchat uses persona. Persona is backed by Peter Thiel. Peter Thiel is pushing for a surveillance state in the US and appears in the Epstein files hundreds of times.

Always bouncing around ideas, hoping one of them gets across the first incline

I like to imagine St. Elsewhere's Tommy Westphall soon found an environment where he was more understood and his imagination accepted, and grew up to be a successful creative writer and Autism advocate

I've tried to keep my head up and not worry people, but I'm in a very bad financial spot right now. I currently owe $2500 in back rent or else I'm getting evicted in 2 weeks. If anyone can help me out, I can pay you back in April by the soonest. paypal.me/CurtisBonds... CashApp: $ItsCurtDogg

The 1993 Super Mario Movie's sticking point is that it is nothing you'd expect a Super Mario movie to be like. The 2023 Super Mario Movie's sticking point is that it is everything you'd expect a Super Mario movie to be like.

this is why the whole “oh, suffering creates great art” thing is bullshit you know what’s conducive to art? a roof over your head and food on the table you know what isn’t? stressing out over where the fuck the rent money is going to come from

I am happy because everyone loves me

I am tired of media subscriptions. They have their merits and I know millions of people find them convenient, but what if my idea of convenience is paying once to be able to keep something forever? What if I don't want my access to something dependent on perpetual fees AND the provider's whim?

Physical media may not be invincible, but streaming & the erosion of ownership of entertainment has gotten to a point where some cases don't even bother with 1-time payment options. Even if more viewers prefer subscriptions, there's plenty who feel otherwise & aren't having THEIR needs accounted for

"I mean I don't see why you should be so upset that Nintendo doesn't let you permanently buy their old games anymore if a flat monthly fee for NSO gets you pretty much all of them" What do you think happens when online support for Switch 1 is discontinued. What do you think happens then

this hasn't personally happened to me, but i've seen other artists here talking about it intermittently. so here's an infographic about a handy feature i think a lot of people are overlooking! #artsky #artistsonbsky

my oc holly gets CHIBI'd because shes STUPID and TERRIBLE

"why couldn't the whole movie have looked like the concept art?" animation is a massive physical commitment and budgets aren't infinite, so you kind of have to make compromises

and here yall go! you want your OC or favorite character turned into a robot? send a ref in here some things to keep in mind: • characters that are robots already aren't eligibile, because duh • give me time, I'm not neccesarily setting a deadline, this is purely for fun #Artificzation

whatever happened to bone hurting juice? you kids used to love bone hurting juice.

why the fuck was i making Adobe OCs as a kid
