I remember how much credit Disney wanted for The First Gay Character and it was live action Lefou raising his eyebrows at a man in one frame of a dance number.

First of all Timon and Pumba adopted and raised a kid together how dare you

That has to be it, right? Lightyear was mid and would've come and gone but The Reaction Industry got its titties twisted about the most nothing second of animation and now The Money People learned the wrong lesson.

Is the gay pixar story an exec's overreaction to Lightyear being poopy cava cause I think the problem with that movie is that it was poopycaca anx not that a couple of gays made eye contact

The SNL audience cheering a second time when they realize Gorillaz are playing Clint Eastwood filled my heart.

The band coming back for Moon Cave with like three times the musicians cracked me up.

I like the idea of a politician logging on to Bluesky to do whatever grassroots marketing they think they're cosplaying as, and the thing that ruins their scrolling is some gif of dudes being awesome

The not-traumatizing part of my life where my parents drowned at sea.

Oh hey, Pete Docter can go to hell! Just call us faggots at this point, that’s less offensive than saying our presence is going to send kids to therapy because their parents don’t know how to handle parenthood.

I never actually went through this process before and I wouldn't do it if not for the fact that there's just not a lotta civilization or activities here

"hi stranger you're wrong and here is my unsolicited opinion, irl face, and government name" is a wild life to live. At least anime pfp have self awareness.

I do not like the Switch form factor and emulator handhelds are a crapshoot

Haven't replaced mine yet but from what I've seen it's just a matter of unscrewing parts.

Serious question: what possesses people to reply to strangers who

1) they don't even follow
2) are minding their own business

with a "nuh uh"

Like why

Yup! Sd2vita works on modded Vitas (it's very easy to mod) and slips right into the game slot. EZPZ. you can get an hshop-like app that'll get you the whole library, too. Solves everything.

Fits in a pocket, has twin sticks, nice OLED screen, plays three generations of Sony libraries.

I packed mine with games cause I'm trapped in my in-laws' tiny single room remote cabin and it getting me through this weekend.

PS Vita was the perfect form factor and perfect quality and had tons of backwards compatibility and everyone just left it to die.

I copyedit dialogue in the lettering phase because I'll find out the linebreaks are garbage.

I just write in my sketch layers now and bank twenty something sketch layers ahead of when I start drawing them.

Those DSes won't fit in those backwards pant pockets.

Rhetorically, I don't know how comic writers write pages in just a word doc without thumbnails or blocked panels.

I mean I know how but I've sketched entire pages before realizing the pacing is ass or the conversation won't physically fit or the layout won't work.

AI is entirely dependent on big businesses though???

Seems like relying on one of the three big businesses to power a calculator that's too stoned to do math reliably is, uh, terribly fraught.
