The best play is to have neither a real nor a fake girlfriend. More money for comics and action figures!

@scribus This is true, I did have to pay my girlfriend at first. I mean, this was before we dated, and also she ran a cash register in my store at the time, but like, that’s just a couple of degrees away.

Just spoke to my girlfriend, she says if I’m really good at my eye appointment I can have pick ONE MOZU doll to have and use on the weekends after I’ve finished my homework.

Tried watching The Sandman. I ended watching the second episode and my impression is that everything feels, for a lack of a better term, "disjointed". Disjointed from emotion, disjointed from establishing a relatable main character, disjointed from a clear plot. I heard a lot that The Sandman has a cult following and it is highly regarded. So far I cannot agree with that sentiment.

Just spoke to a very nice man who enlightened me on the absolutely batFluffle Puff insane conspiracies he believes in

I download things multiple times by accident because I forget I had it in the Downloads folder or I had a copy in the more appropriate folder, which I also forget I had.

Federal officials are reporting that over 300 pirated copies of the Disney-Pixar film Cars 2 were found on President Trump’s personal computer. The password was “EricDonIvanka123”.

You gotta admit, getting raided by the FBI the day after your spokesman declares that flushing classified documents down the toilet is totally cool and normal is a LITTLE funny!

Stuck in traffic. Nothing’s moving. Directly ahead of me is a Metro bus. On the back: “It doesn’t get more DC than this”. I think he might be onto something.

The beefiest update yet, and we're still not finished! Another Demo is on the way. Look out for the Free Public Demo on August 25th, just in time for Everfree Northwest.

Literally as the store manager is telling me about how he’s never had a power outage at this store… total power failure.

All those MTV cartoons in the late 90s/early 2000s had the right idea, animating with thick outlines is way easier than thin ones. Daria should be the gold standard.

@scribus I’m sure it’s eyeroll-inducing when I talk about how I think The Simpsons looked better before the switch to HD but this is basically exactly why. The new studio is better about it than Film Roman was but the crispness of the art drew a lot of attention to the crudeness of the character designs and made the whole product look a lot worse. The brighter colors are headache inducing. The improved readability of small movements means characters aren’t moving much at all. And now that things are going into 4K that’s all probably gonna get a lot worse. There are gonna be a thousand individually animated objects in a single frame just to prove it can be done. It’s gonna be visual overstimulation like you wouldn’t believe.
-
@zeldatra Overstimulation... That's what I sometimes feel watching anime. Some try to fill a frame with so much detail and end up distracting at best and unreadable at worst.
-
@adiwan Kind of how I felt with Bless the Harts. It's like amateur movies, where they used cheap cameras and full-focus lenses, and everything is clear but nothing clearly stands out. Sort of a soap opera effect.

This is the second time Ann Coulter has advocated for the removal of voting rights from women after an election in Kansas. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it’s happened twice, right?

(that was not sarcastic, I genuinely believe that the size and resolution of modern displays allow for design choices that I would consider hostile)

F U Windows for being such a pain in the butt.

Finally I found a way to fix my Windows Update problem. It got stuck and refused to update at all since March of 2021. Because of this I rarely used my desktop PC as it would take 20 minutes to boot undoing the update installation and constantly nagging me to install the update. I had to use the Windows Media Creation Tool and "reinstall" Windows 10 from within Windows 10.

Chantilly Virginia was previously a town I had only heard about but never visited. It is now the town I drive through on my way to work because the toll road around Falls Church is too expensive.

Linda Ellerbee once said that in television you’re not supposed to sound like you’re from anywhere, but I think that’s BS, so next time I’m doing a Cajun accent.

@zeldatra I believe I ended up calling my Sage and Savant narrator voice something like "Euro-American Transatlantic Null" because "A Don LaFontaine impression that misses the mark enough to be so unrecognizable it's considered original" was wordy and too insidery

I hide my southern accent when acting to avoid having to explain why characters who live on the west coast talk like they have a confederate flag on their Ford pickup and I’ve only just today learned that the generic, region-ambiguous accent I’m doing when I do that is called “broadcast English”. Fitting.

@zeldatra It's not that weird, my grandma has an Okie accent and she was born in New Mexico, lived mostly in California. There are even pockets of accentedness tucked here and there in back neighborhoods of, like, Norco and stuff
