And this is what happens when representation is so limited that everything has to be compared to everything else. Y'all, shit can exist on its own without having to be compared to another major IP. Expecting a Raya comparison think piece in 3... 2...
@dwanimation.bsky.social I'm going to need you to drop some character art ASAP so I can put together a Jo cosplay for Comic-Con in July.
ABOUT TO START CRYING WHAT DO YOU MEAN ITS ABOUT TWO FILIPINA BEST FRIENDS?!?!?! www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8RH...
Black and white parody image of Rocky from the movie Project Hail Mary with the words, “ABSOLUTE CINEMA” written underneath.
I need to move the book up my TBR list immediately.
I know things are (still) going to shit, but the Bay Area no longer feels like we're sitting in Satan's butt crack so there's that.
I will never forgive weird ass toxic Star Wars “fans” for the shit they put her through.
This year felt like it was going by incredibly fast, but then I watched the new Dune teaser and now it's like December is eons away. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_9v...
What are the parameters for The Perfect Pasta Bowl?
Career update: did a 5 minute presentation at work yesterday titled, "Star Trek + Japan + Internet = Heated Rivalry". Not sure if I'll ever top it.
Screenshot of a message request asking if I’ll be their sugar baby for $7k/week.
Got another one and I’m trying to figure out the scam. I say yes, give them my payment info, then they run chargebacks/refund requests off fraudulent funds? Like, Michael, you can’t even see my face, dude.
Screenshot of the message request portion of the social media app UpScrolled showing a series of DMs asking if they can get to know the user better.
Mirror photo of a Filipino woman showing her outfit of a black t-shirt, loose camo pants, and black shoes with skeleton feet printed on them. Her face is covered by her phone.
I started an UpScrolled account for ‘fit checks and these bots are giving me a taste of what it’s probably like to be an Instagram baddie. Amusing when all my posts are like this.
OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit
I have determined that everything right now is All Too Much and it needs to be Considerably Less, so if reality could just dial it down a fucking iota or two, I think we'd all like that
Celebrating wins however small: this auntie just did her first house dance class and did not fall flat on her face. (Don’t ask me how my knees and back will feel tomorrow, though.)
Just found a site that had NewJeans’ 22-23 Yearbook and their first EP with the bag that was released before anyone knew them and I’m literally just trying to find joy wherever I can so yeah, I bought them. 🤷🏻♀️ Shout out to Danielle, shout out to Bunnies, NewJeans forever.
I fear my tipping point into madness is "Thus is un-American" posts in response to ICE terrorizing immigrants. I beg you to open Wikipedia (I would say a book but let's start small) and read up on The Trail of Tears, Fugitive Slave Catchers, Japanese internment, Indian Boarding schools & Jim Crow
Thank goodness. Never mind that it should have been an automatic ban without having to have a bunch of artists speak up on how bad the original requirements were. Do better, @sandiegocomic-con.bsky.social. www.404media.co/comic-con-ba...
As a lifelong Californian, I’m hella ready to learn Dutch. Hej!
Three women dressed up as the Three Good Fairies in their peasant outfits from Disney’s Sleeping Beauty
We got the full Sleeping Beauty group together for SF Fan Expo. Another fine example of us cosplaying something that only appears for <3 minutes in any media.
Dispatch with the Channel Tres song at the end?! I love this game even more!
Pre-Thanksgiving earthquake? Bless.
We've entered the time of year when saying someone is "hotter than a parking spot at Costco" is the highest form of compliment.
TikTok is telling me that quarter-zip sweaters/sweatshirts are it for Gen Z guys and I’m thinking it’s only a matter of time before business-casual-in-the-club becomes a thing again.
AND the Warriors won!
Fuck yeah, Prop 50! LET’S FUCKING GOOOOOOOO!
Hell yeah! Congrats Mayor Mamdani!
Became a SoundCloud rapper for Halloween. Shout out to the Guaplord @jild.bsky.social.
“LeBron is pleased!”
Cut to shot of LeBron looking absolutely stoic.
Promotional card of D’Angelo with Levi’s jeans on from Macy’s. Autographed by D’Angelo with “Stay up O.K. Playa” on it.
In 2000 I got to meet D’Angelo briefly at an autograph signing at Macy’s in SF when he worked with Levi’s. It was peak Okayplayer years and, like a dork, called out, “Okay, player!” when it was my turn. Staff told us he wasn’t personalizing any autographs, but he did for me. RIP D’Angelo.
