Introducing my mom to Taskmaster. It’s going well.

All I do these days is look for work, read, write, draw, run/walk/exercise, and take my cats to the vet.

DHS funding bill faces new Senate hurdles after another person killed in Minneapolis Some Democrats who voted for recent funding bills said they'll vote against any DHS bill without restrictions on enforcement operations. The deadline to avert a shutdown is Friday.

YOUR PHONE CALLS TO THE SENATE ARE WORKING. KEEP CALLING.

202–224-3121

Three Democrats who previously broke with the party and voted with the GOP are now saying they will not vote for the bill. That’s enough for the bill to be unpassable right now.

Let them marvel at how poorly I am constructed. Let them wonder how I have lived these thirty-two years.

It doesn’t feel like a new year at all, it just feels like an extension of the horrors. A continuation.

Senate switchboard: (202) 224-3121. Call and leave a message. Then call again on Monday and talk to someone directly.

At this point to find a job you already have to be employed by a studio and rolled internally onto the next show 🫠

I think 4:3 is the superior aspect ratio.

Me: why do my legs hurt in this specific way when I run?

Multiple sources across the internet: you’re built wrong lmao, suffer or see a physical therapist I guess

I’d love to see the full list of professionals he’s gathered, I’m fascinated by this

No one could have predicted どんな料理よな好きがですか would be such a mine field. I’m so baffled that I can’t even remember the exact wording, we spent 25min on this topic as we all desperately tried to determine what was and wasn’t a valid answer. Our poor teacher did her best. I’m sorry, sensei.

In YEARS of learning Japanese, the closest we have come to this level of chaos was when I asked about adjective order.

I have never in my life been more confused than while trying to figure out what is and is not considered りょうり。

Is a salad prepared enough? What about specific salad, like a Caesar salad? Does it specifically need to be cooked with heat?

Learned that no dessert can be considered, even baked ones.

I’d like to win another essay award, that was fun.

All You Need Is Kill was so good I immediately bought the light novel.

Excellent film, proof that you can have bright, colorful, cool art direction and production design and still tell stories with darker tone and content.

I saw god, flirted with god, came onto god, became a cleric, and got the final hit on the BBEG to save the world.

I did briefly die though. Good job, Ferris!

The Last Goodbye

Well, I’m off to go play my D&D character of 2.5 years for the very last time 😭

Alexa, play the saddest song you’ve got

Happy #PortfolioDay again! I’m still open to work :)

Zohran Mamdani is from the Sesame Street version of NYC, Curtis Sliwa is from the Hey Arnold version, and Eric Adams is from the Alienist version. I will not be explaining further.

I loved Nobody, it was great in a theater. Art College 1994 was similarly well-crafted, but a very different kind of film.

I have, multiple times, cut myself on cat food tins.

Never dog food, never tinned food for humans, only ever cat food.

Have you seen any of their 2D films? Absolutely gorgeous.

China has built their animation industry brick by brick the last 10-15 years and it shows.

I can’t enjoy any of the fun cool treats of Japan and Korea, they love melon there and I’m like “do I risk it”

Counterpoint: I don’t like them because they make my mouth itchy

(I have discovered it’s an allergy)

いつも、図書館で本借りたでも…私の図書館が有さない。

5冊を買ってしまいました、高いね。

Guess who is back in a coooooone with a drain and stitches?

(he somehow got a golf ball-sized abscess on his neck)

No issues with scaling up video or anything. I find Mint to be very user friendly, but I’ve worked in Ubuntu and CentOS no issue as well.

I think it’s a good, lightweight option for what you intend and easy enough to do.

Oh nice. I love working in Houdini on Linux (prefer to PC, but that’s likely because every professional environment I’ve touched it in has been Linux-based). The MintBook is a daily use browser/word processor that is also used as a streaming interface for non-app platforms. Handles it nicely,
