Malcolm Rambert (Looking for Work!)

If Super Sentai truly is just straight up ending, I'm okay with that. 47 years without ANY pauses or breaks is a recipe for fatigue in any franchise, and Ultraman and Rider have both taken extended hiatuses. I love Sentai, but it's okay to let things stop for a while.

The USA wasn’t the only country that was fearful of anime & other Japanese media getting popular with the youth. This was pretty much the case for every Western country, though sometimes of a different flavor.

People keep saying they’re aren’t any legit Halloween songs outside of “Monster Mash” (I guess we all forgot about “Spooky Scary Skeletons” by Andrew Gold)

So on this Hallow’s Eve, I want to bring more attention this neat collab constructed by UNICEF of all places: (1/2)

From the description of the 2006 YouTube upload: Arcade Fire's Win & Regine + Redd Kross' Steve McDonald + Beck + R.E.M.'s + Joey Waronker + Buck 65 + Rilo Kiley's Jenny & Black + David Cross + Roky Erickson + Devendra Banhart + Sloan's Chris Murphy + Elvira, Mistress of the Dark + Smoosh's Asya & Chloe + Feist + Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore + Gino Washington + Sparks' Russel Mael + Les Savy Fav's Syd Butler + Subtitle + Islands' J'aime + Sum 41's Stevo + Malcolm Mclaren + Tagaq + Peaches + That Dog's Anna Waronker + Postal Service's Jimmy Tamborello + Wolf Parade's Dan & Spencer + Yeah Yeah Yeah's Karen O

is meant to be a tongue-in-cheek-parody of all those charity songs like “Do They Know It’s Christmas” by Band Aid, but it’s also a legit charity song in its own right.

Aligning up with their Trick-Or-Treat for UNICEF campaign, they got a BUNCH of artists to join in. Has 3 remix tracks. (2/2)

I recently discovered this cool website that documents instances of crossovers between webcomics and/or fan-inserted cameos of webcomic characters in comics that aren't their own.

This post is the 2nd part of my first contribution. Very useful and fun database.

Three new pages and two others fairly reworked for the rough draft of The Town-Ho's Story. Pages 30-37. Poop emoji stickers getting a workout.

Did you know! I just discovered that the two major abridged additions of Moby-Dick do not include The Town-Ho's Story? That's insane.

I miss Micheal Eisner.

Edith Ann’s Christmas - The Peabody Awards While it might appear on the surface that this Yule-tide tale strays from the mainstream, it presents positive and especially timely messages of caring and forgiveness. Irreverent and often outrageous...

Funny enough, this is the only one not animated by Klasky Csupo, ends up having the best animation, AND it one a Peabody Award. (2/2)

Throwing my hat in the ring and recommending the Edith Ann Christmas special. Yes, the SNL character played by Lily Tomlin got not just one, but THREE animated TV specials back in the day. (1/2)

Thanks for the reply and explanation.

Very interesting! I too have my own weird pop culture oddities I obsess over (like my complicated relationship with the 2009 Astro Boy film being one of 50 kids who read the manga before seeing it in theaters).

This is a good joke post.

Question: is there a reason why your PFP is that one old lady from the gift cards, but specially a screen grab from the direct to home video Christmas special?

I’m just curious because you don’t typically see avatars like that in the wild.

I’m pretty sure I’m subbed to you on another account, so I’ll add my stuff there later in the month.

Minorities manage to hold onto their cultures even when they are the smallest group in a country. If your culture is under threat because you’re not *majority enough* then your culture wasn’t that rich to begin with.

shit rocks tbh

I’m assuming this is about some random short film the Catsuka account was bringing attention to.

You only feel this way because that’s the type of stuff the account likes to signal boost.

Even so, I can’t think of much you’d prefer to watch otherwise. Not even trying to hate.

Late question: I’m writing for a publication that is reviewing the other Adventure Tome episodes you helped write for.

How did you get into philosophy?

I don't want to say the thumb-fingered venality of the Trump administration is going to ruin US anime cons, but I spent a little time looking through the guest lists of upcoming shows for the rest of the year, and there's a notable absence of Japanese names on those guest lists

Say this for Curtis Sliwa, the Republican mayoral candidate: Unlike either Cuomo or Adams, he has never tried to portray Mamdani as a terrorist or played footsie with Trump.

This is such a dark realization.

What I think a lot of people don't grasp is that hypocrisy is a display of power. The sovereign is he who makes the exception and all that.

Congratulations on the survival!

Hope you’re feeling better.

Here’s the thing: none of it actually matters to them and they’ll have different grievances next week. You can’t gotcha them
