Lonely people on the internet when they see an animated girl with a butt:

Twinning

The Soviet Winnie-the-Pooh is a wonderful thing. And its version of Pooh himself is one of the great animated characters. The artists didn't take from Disney's version. They aimed for an "absolutely new bear" -- and they pulled it off. We explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/the-absolu...

Also a useful PSA for those who would like to block him now.

we could also literally just not do this we don't need to keep pretending that some vc money hole is real or good

Twitter is apparently melting down over a notion that these are "fanservice" characters while here I was more bothered by how sanitary and samey that's been in the industry?? Why does every cartoon woman have the same hips and no other curves. Stop doing that.

Happy 5 year anniversary to the Retro Sanae translation! Here's an updated version to remind everyone of the passage of time! x.com/KangaerunaMi...

I know there is a big He-Man and Masters of the Universe Movie coming out very soon. The He-Man Effect explains why this is happening to us. It also predicted this would happen. us.macmillan.com/books/978125...

Published in The New England Journal of Medicine. Peer-reviewed. Large sample size. Sound methodology. An antiviral pill has, for the first time, been shown to prevent COVID-19 in individuals exposed to SARS-CoV-2. Ensitrelvir blocks the enzyme coronaviruses need to make new copies of themselves.

Right wing freaks getting mad at the government for subsidizing parenting in any paltry capacity is always funny, you’re the “declining birthrate” people. You should want having kids to be a cinch.

R.I.P. JUNIPER BLESSING.

Peppermint Patty, regardless of what you say, is gnc as fuck

Oh hey steam's very selectively enforced prudishness is very predictably being used as a cudgel towards a queer VN. Who could have seen this coming?/s

Strong Bad after December 2010

i’ve been thinking of what could even be said about such a tragedy. someone said it best that trans people are “born so late and die so young”. we uproot our lives and transition and live more life than anyone else ever does and society punishes us for it. we deserve better

“[something]-slop” is the worst kind of modern lingo. No shame to those who use it but I do not like how it sounds when reading it.

This happened against a backdrop of a large scale migration of trans people to the Seattle metro area combined with an alarming rise in the number of hate crimes against trans women in the area. These events are happening in the city’s university district, and in its ‘gayborhood’.

still not quite over the fact that i watched 15 year olds get sued for millions of dollars for downloading twelve songs and now we all have to accept AI slop because every tech company in the known universe decided that IP laws don't exist now that they're inconvenient for them

In 2017, Criselda Vasquez painted this portrait of her parents and titled it "The New American Gothic." Last month, her father, the man in this portrait, was abducted by ICE after being in the US for 30+ years. The family is now struggling with bills. A GoFundMe has been started: gofund.me/456d8a193

yes. correct.

saw someone say season 5 of the boys has bad worldbuilding because they don't show enough establishing shots and now i'm genuinely concerned how many people think worldbuilding is just when you show establishing shots

interesting rationale from a prospective juror in the Elon Musk Twitter stock manipulation case

heard a guy say "you have to access it through the portal" and i was momentarily struck by how sad it is that what he said is so boring :( "accessing it via the portal" should be wonderful. we deserve that at least. it should be cool to access it via the portal and instead it sucks shit

If you go by Atari's internal newsletter Coin Connection, today is the 50th anniversary of Breakout, their most popular title since Pong at the time and such a massive hit in Japan that it spawned a bunch of clones and inspired Space Invaders. Granted, other internal sources say April 76, but hey

This but also, twitter ain't got nothing I can't find here Cute art? I arguably have TOO MUCH Memes from people as terminally online as I am? I literally got to watch as Nanao from one of my favorite videos ever became a psuedo-mascot for this website and there's a CDI meme going viral every week.

The Super Mario 64 source code lists names for Mario's footstep sounds. The list starts off normal but becomes poetic with names like "Footsteps in the Fallen Leaves" and "More Than Anyone Else in the World". It turns out the names are actually taken from a 1994 dating simulator.

no, babe. you’re not “defending western civilization.” you are a dip shit

Finally wrote about Perfect Tides: Station to Station, far and away the best game I’ve played this year.

In Super Paper Mario, Peach ends a dating simulator segment by blowing it up with a bomb. This is most likely a reference to classic 1994 dating simulator Tokimeki Memorial, where girls neglected by the player character will destroy his reputation, represented by cartoon bombs.

i think people are too harsh on bsky because it is actually social media itself that is dying, not any particular site

"im not owned im not owned" Watchmojo continues to insist as it shrivels into a corn cob

boycotts work. anyone stating otherwise is spreading state & corp sanctioned propoganda
