The only thing stopping me from doing a George Lucas re-release to keep that comic up to date is that I don’t know how to draw Joe Biden, I’ve tried so hard and I just can’t do it

@mrmattimation Try drawing Jim Carrey, but older?

The first computer I used was a Commodore Plus/4 and the first I owned was a 286 Compaq Portable III.

@scribus I was too small to remember but my parents said that it was sold soon very soon as it was mostly incompatible with the C64 software library.

Borderlands 2 is fun right up until I either run up against the usual "What am I stuck on, why am I not running, why can't I even jump, if I'm not supposed to be here how did I even get in and why can't I get out again" antics of every FPS ever... That, or the keyboard-as-controller issues of "I wanted my knife, not to throw a grenade at my own feet..." !vgp

@scribus True story: I grew up pretty much entirely on PlayStation 2 and Xbox 360, so when I finally got a PC that could properly handle video games I was immediately put off by the keyboard controls and plugged in an Xbox One controller instead. To this day it's really hard for me to play shooters the "real" way.
-
@mrmattimation I had had an NES, GameBoy, SNES, Atari XE, and Sega Genesis before we got our first "real" family computer, a 486 running Windows 3.11. My parents declared that the computer was therefore not for games, unless they were educational. I believe I would go on to N64, 3DS, and Xbox 360 before trying WASD-anything.

So this guy watched my video about how we can separate the art from the artist... and saw it as a symptom of cancel culture? LMAO http://rainbowdash.net/url/875785

Great! My car was stolen. A serious medical emergency and I get a BINGO on my Bingo card.

@scribus And I bought all the parts for repairing my rear window wipers. The car has a completely full tank. Luckily there aren`t any expensive or personal objects in there. I have contacted my insurance and I was at the police. I hope I get a good cash out for the car to buy a new used one.
-
@adiwan oh, I totally misread that, too. I had somehow construed it to mean that both were, collectively, a single square on the card... haha
-
@scribus I guess it's an eldrich and cursed Bingo card that slowly merges all squares into one.

Accidentally making straight people a minority in your cartoon universe because the only straights around got sucked into a different cartoon universe and it’s been too long now to resolve the situation

@mrmattimation The only good straightman was Bob Newhart. Because it sure wasn't Dean Martin, lol https://youtu.be/gfOb8JhDatI

Valentine's day is again soon. How about we abolish Valentine's day and replace it with the Sonic Movie Anniversary.

On the night from Thursday to Friday I had to call the police because a drunk person with an empty vodka bottle slept and snored on the staircase about next to my apartment. Probably one of my hate neighbours acquaintances. Then the next two days were extremely noisy and I had to call the police 3 times. In the span of the 3 days I was awake for 44 hours straight.

@adiwan Ugh, that's painful... I think I got 3 hours of sleep in 72+ hours the last time "Sage and Savant" did a live show.

Gee for some reason it's not easy to find sealing wax in the store, almost as if wax seals are some kind of anachronism or some junk

Maybe I try participating in the lottery. Only 6 numbers out of 49. Only a chance of 1 in 140000000 for winning the jackpot. It's more likely I get killed by a rogue falling coconut or a shark or a lightning bolt.

@adiwan Maybe we can make you out to be a vague European prince and work something with them...
-
@scribus Yeah. A lot of US citizens are very bad about geography (I've heard) so it'll make it quite easy.
-
@adiwan I myself tend to peter out around "...Colombia, Venezuela, Honduras, Guyana and still..." before "Ecuador, Chile, Brazil!" and kind of losing the thread again.

Hey here's one, how are they gonna keep the animation cell fan industry going when everything is all digital?
Thursday, 28-Jan-21 03:59:36 UTC from web-
@scribus Three answers: The first is that The Simpsons didn't switch to digital animation until the mid-2000s, so there's always about fifteen years of that to go through (and Disney not-withstanding (they've been doing digital since The Rescuers Down Under in 1990), the rest of the industry was also pretty late on that train), the second is that a 22-minute program averages around ten thousand unique drawings (more than that if it's a Simpsons, less than that if it's a Flintstones or Jetsons) so there's a LOT to go through, and the third is, and you didn't hear this from me, a lot of those animation cels you see on eBay are actually reproductions or pieces of promotional artwork which have been created expressly to be sold, so they quite literally will be able to send you Itchy's arm for decades.

@mrmattimation I keep threatening to spend my tax return on a Bakshi cell some time, but something else always ends up seeming more fun

Starting watching Brooklyn Nine Nine. It's the better The Office just for the fact it is not pure cringe and it has Terry Crews.
