Binge culture is crazy, people put so much emphasis on habitually fixating on and consuming as much of something as possible.

The longstanding culture of webcomics doesn't help much either, it's crazy how it's assumed a comic should be producing a WHOLE PAGE every single week.

concocted truly the most annoying sound i have ever heard
cooked up in a lab to drive people crazy

lenny is sat with homer at moe's with some pokemon cards scattered across the bar. Lenny: hey whatcha got there homer? Homer: oh i don't know... it's some crap the boy is into these days Barney: hey! moe! this one looks like you! Moe then snatches the card. Moe: what? gimme that! i oughta sue the hell outta- Moe then contrmplates the Magmar card, and finds recognition within it.

a simple "ah shit, i was wrong, my bad" gets you a lot farther than you'd think

Yeah, like, they got NEW art for the covers, so... get good art! Something evocative!

The reprints of the old BattleTech novels are a crime.

Just a reminder, the greatest living American historian filmmaker, Ken Burns, released a 720 min exploration of every facet of the American revolution using zero generative AI and paying for all of its assets instead of cobbling it from stolen data, then he gave it away for free on PBS this year.

People put too much stock in random internet heuristics for things for no reason other than they're pithy. Annoying!

THE PHILLIP BANKSS Thanksgiving SPECIAL

phib telling chill guy "happy thanksgiving, Chill Guy!" to which he responds "thanks mom"

chill guy gives him a hug and says "im thankful for you" to which philb responds "Aw... Im thankful for you too!"

unchill gal is far off in the corner. she just goes 'okay.'

happy thanksgiving... try not to get TOO scared!!! 🦃🥧

this is all fun and games but you gotta go outside and breathe the fucking air to live, this shit ain't real, this is the fucking illusory realm, this is the realm of spectacle and unsuppressed urges man, this is 100% performance, none of this means jack shit, peel your fucking eyes away

Congratulations! You two look great!

I'm increasingly noticing people ONLY experience new things because others are too. It's created an environment where only passionate people & the insane are allowed to parse new information. Watch random anime OVAs on Youtube. Listen to music on shuffle. Break the cycle.

The anime I watch, & the anime you watch, are fundamentally different on a number of levels.

Bam Margera had a pretty sick VHS editing station.

It's odd that people don't mention it. It's even tagged as such on e621, and his FA uploads have conspicuously tapered off.

Anno: Oh, I’m critical of Porco Rosso, myself. Tomino: What was wrong with Porco? Anno: As a picture, nothing. But because I know Miyazaki-san personally, I can’t view it objectively. His presence in the film is too conspicuous, it’s no good. In other words... it feels like he’s showing off. Tomino: How so? Anno: He has the main character act all self-deprecating, calling himself a pig... but then puts him in a bright red plane, has him smoking all cool-like, even creates a love triangle between a cute young thing and a sexy older lady. Tomino: Ha! I see what you mean. He and | are around the same age, though. So I get how he feels, unconditionally. So I may think, “Oh boy...” but I can’t stay mad at him (laughs). Anno gets a little too into talking about underpants, and Tomino of all people has to check hit Anno: From my point of view, he’s being very presumptuous. Tomino-san, you put so much of yourself into your works, it is like you’re dancing naked in them. I like that! (balls fists) In Miya- san’s recent works, he makes you fhink he’s dancing naked... but on second glance, you realize he’s still wearing underpants. (getting carried away) I hate that! I feel like shouting: “Take it all off!” (getting really carried away) And to add insult to injury... he’s wearing fancy underpants! Tomino: You don’t beat around the bush. We get it, we get it already. Anno: (shrinking) Excuse me.

Tomino: i do get what you mean, and i don’t mean to play devil’s advocate for Miyazaki, but... generally speaking, that’s just how you get when you age. It’s the same for me, surely. That was my first time hearing it put so frankly... but you get what I mean already. It does feel nice letting it all hang out, waving your dick around. That’s how movies ought to be! Anno: Yes, I agree. I don’t like it when people try to obscure themselves like that. If you’re gonna wave your dick around, wave it all around! If you don’t have the guts to do that, then wear the best clothing you can. Tomino: Right... Dress yourself to the nines! Anno: Commit yourself to putting on a show. He couldn’t do that. I felt betrayed. Like, this guy isn't really naked!

i think often about this discussion between Yoshiyuki Tomino and Hideaki Anno. it's one of the funniest ways anyone has ever talked about restraint vs self indulgence in art.
