aku might be the only decent impression I have smh

this does not narrow it down

after effects randomly rearranges the order of layers after you copy and paste them. It's 2025. After effects is 32 years old.

The extremely rich friend who is funding all of wes anderson's films and the extremely rich dad who is funding all of Laika's stop motion animated movies are two of the very few ultra rich people who are successfully avoiding being a net negative contribution to the state of the world

Toxic avenger was fucking incredible

Pre-assembled Wallace fit at Beals???

Once, Sesame Street was a lifeline for indie animators. It offered money and incredible freedom to create. This built an indie animation boom that powered MTV, Nickelodeon and much more. We explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/the-golden...

Revoltoso is a brilliant piece of stop-motion cubism. It comes from Cinema Fantasma of Frankelda fame -- with a little help from Guillermo del Toro. We explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/handcrafti...

my dad was always saying this

The order of science: 1.) Discover there’s a deadly problem 2.) Work for years to solve it 3.) The problem may not be gone forever, but we’ve won 4.) People forget the deadly problem actually existed 5.) People decide this must mean the science to solve it was a hoax 6.) The deadly problem returns

Glad to no longer be on Twitter but I wish I could witness these whitehouse ratios as they happen

HARD

FFS THE BAYEUX "TAPESTRY" IS NOT A TAPESTRY. IT'S AN EMBROIDERY. TAPESTRIES ARE WOVEN. THE BAYEUX "TAPESTRY" IS SEWN. IN ABOUT 50 YEARS WE'LL HAVE THE 1000-YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF PEOPLE MAKING THIS ELEMENTARY MISTAKE. SORT IT OUT, PEOPLE. Nor is it from Bayeux. www.theguardian.com/culture/2025...

I sorta want to see a remake of Harakiri that transposes the story from imperial Japanese feudalism to modern American post Regan corporate feudalism

oh shit

Oh

This is some good shit, though I do feel that nadella's name doesn't leave enough lips when this subject is broached. This all really comes down to him.

I still love what this country CAN be, and I still... sorta... believe it can live up to its promises. I guess it's just our turn on the grater.

Meanwhile my existing .key files don't seem to activate even the version they were made for. So Adobe's straight up stolen like uuuh 600 dollars from me since I was using substance live back int the day. I distinctly remember allegorithmic leadership publicly stating this wouldn't happen.

just got off the phone with adobe support in an attempt to reclaim the most recent versions of my substance key files or something. Spent 15 minutes backing and forthing before I realized that the dude thought I was talking about Acrobat every time I said Allegorithmic. -

Destroying Waymos is the most prosocial act I can think of at this point in history

Reappraising Id’s Rage. The weapon and character models are still absolutely breathtaking. The gunplay is fantastic except the fucking screen blur when you get shot. The dialogue sure… sure is there… They got John Goodman in that shit and by golly he says those words out loud.

This year's Summer Games Fest presentation was really concerned with how few people made a lot of those games, huh? It feels kinda fucked up. Not just because they're often misrepresntating the real size of these teams, but because I think it's playing directly into a new(ish) flavour of dev hate.

The sentence that impressed me that English is a really beautiful language is "This shit is so ass"

I wish Marathon a very monetarily successful launch so that N² ‪@antire.al‬ can have it all.

I hope Wendy Carlos has a good ass day today and every day

And that's how I find out that Grant Niesner died during his sleep on June 21 last year. 😢 Grant worked on the first three Matrix and Starship Troopers. I had the chance to exchange messages with him, and he kindly agreed to answer my questions. He was adorable and very generous.
