I can't believe it's year of the rapidash that's so cool

YALL TELL ME WHY THIS STEAKHOUSE PIANO PLAYER IS PLAYING THE DRY DOCKS THEME FROM SUPER MARIO 64

Year of the Fire Horse

This style of light doesn't really appear in animation anymore. You know it when you see it -- it's bright, hot and almost dangerous. Our new issue explores the tricks behind it, and how one artist has revived the look for the digital age: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/dangerous-...

Cupid is interesting because until I was a parent I didn’t understand the idea of a baby who gets to decide when two people have sex

Chat, is this real? (But I'm asking a French cat and it pretends not to understand with Gallic insouciance.)

Me at 20: I’ll have it all figured out by the time I’m 40. Me at 40: wtf do you mean they rearranged the grocery store

Mom Goals.

finally found this tumblr post expounding on how stupid owls are piraticoctopus.tumblr.com/post/6741867...

My age verification is that I - owned the first Backstreet Boys album on cassette tape - have a music video of me singing Hakuna Matata from Blockbuster's grand opening - remember when the N64 was first released and everyone was losing their minds - learned to pump gas when it was under $1/gallon

Crushes are stupid.

All chocolate is Dubai chocolate to me cause I do buy it

gonna repost some of my bangers from the old app

A nail tech can be a great artist. A poster can be a great artist. Democratizing art involves destroying prioritizing prestige or training from expensive art schools. It’s admitting a weird short on YouTube might be the best thing you’ve ever seen

For any of my artist followers who play XIV, I'm one of the managers hosting an Anti-AI art auction in game (for gil commissions) and sign ups close tomorrow! The event itself is on February 21st at 7pm EST, but you can also have a representative show up for you if you can't make it!

I actually agree that there is going to be a skill gap between people who regularly use AI vs those who refuse to use it, and it's that after the bubble pops the refusers will be fine while the AI-dependent will be missing or have let atrophy basic skills

Can't say it enough, if you are going to build ANYTHING, you are going to be criticized much more than you will be praised. Do not be deterred. Build what you want to exist. Find your people and seek their counsel. Keep it moving.

Democratizing the arts looks like universal income, low-barrier grants for both emerging and working artists, well-funded municipal arts & recreation programs, vibrant third spaces, and a well-funded public school system with progressive curriculum. Not a free pass for corporate-owned slop engines.

I fell so atrociously behind on things during the two weeks we didn't have heat. I couldn't comfortably sit at my desk to work, and my January was packed with a todo list as it was. Now I have a million things due by this Saturday and I'm considering an all nighter tonight.

Elon not being happy despite having all the money is like someone losing at a game in tutorial mode, which he also does

What a year, huh

There is an actual argument that this curse actually worked.

It's wrong that they won't let me live in a 55+ community simply due to my age. They should let you in if you match the "general vibe"

twitter must be dead dead cause someone posted a rat coin purse that would have 2019 twitter losing its collective mind and most of the top comments are bots saying random words or people not nearly amped enough about the rat coin purse

Every day Mamdani comes out and is like "hey guys, I turned off the orphan-crushing machine. Literally just had to flip a switch. Took less than 5 minutes." After decades of dem leadership pissing and moaning and fundraising about how complex an issue it is and how difficult the process is etc

My politics

Elites have been doing sex crimes while forcing the rest of us to say "grape" and "unalive" to avoid having our posts taken down Not being able to accurately describe abuse makes people (especially children) vulnerable to it

TikTok peaked with this guy

“Meta spent billions just to be outdone by this Steam game made by four people” WHAT. A. HEADLINE! 🤩⭐🔥 Sit with friends and strangers at the bottom of our screens while you work/study but with animal crossing/ webfishing vibes (and not meta hehe)

So says Metem (while Tom Morello's music blares in the background of the fight)

If there is a time traveler here from the future looking for a good opportunity to Do The Thing, this is your sign. The sooner the better.
