was about to joke about how like 50% of Always Sunny will get thanos'd but i googled it and how are netflix only removing a single episode lmaoo

@mrmattimation sure is
-
I know that they're pulling an episode of Community for implied blackface, and without even reading into it I know the exact scene they're talking about and I sincerely do not believe that a single person with any stake in societal progression watched that scene and thought it was actually a problem
Monday, 29-Jun-20 10:45:08 UTC from web-
@tiff Similarly, I’m pretty sure pulling an episode of Golden Girls is not especially high on BlackLivesMatters’ priority list.
-
@mrmattimation I dunno how far exactly I'd go to defend these sorts of jokes but pretty much every example I can think of is pretty obviously a subversive criticism *of* blackface. Obviously I am not the person who can/should decide if that makes it more okay, but I feel like removing these scenes is stifling discussions of anti-racism if anything. Like just put the disclaimer in front like WB and Disney or whatever

@mrmattimation I would prefer it for future reference if POC actors got to voice POC characters, especially in the current industry where they aren't getting the same treatment or opportunities as white people; but I absolutely agree that this current wave of networks removing TV episodes with instances of racism and actors conveniently regretting voicing POC roles all of a sudden is largely posturing in the absence of actual willingness to, you know, hire and support and pay POC. I also don't think it's a particularly far reach to suggest that companies are just pretending this is what activists are asking for as some sort of psyop, since it will most likely push the needle back in their favour (i.e. still not hiring, supporting and paying POC)

I gotta say, blocking would-be constituents is a really great way to keep losing elections.

@mrmattimation The rep for Corona keeps blocking constituents on Twitter, I've heard it's unconstitutional
-
@scribus iirc the ruling was that government accounts (which includes Trump’s personal account, due to some records act that encompasses both his and Obama’s Twitter history) are public forums and therefore cannot block people, but PRIVATE political accounts are not. IE, the state party can block users because the party is not affiliated with the government, and “campaign accounts” (which most Reps tend to use instead of their office accounts) can do so as well.
-
@mrmattimation I see. I figure, screw twitter anyway. The internet needs a cleansing fire. One day, the impure will be destroyed. One day, the Users will return. #tronlives heh

@scribus I’m such a boring Fluffle Puffin drunk too, I didn’t do ANYTHING regrettable besides get sick. Never drinking again.

@mrmattimation I don't blame you, even I rarely even have a beer anymore.

Keep thinking about how papayaed the animation industry would be if this Covid thing happened in the 80s or 90s or even in the early 2000s.

@mrmattimation I bet Disney would have been pitching the isolated campus model
-
@scribus There is PRECEDENT for something like that, bits of I think The Lion King and Pocahontas were animated remotely after an earthquake temporarily shut down Disney’s Glendale campus, but there’s no way it would be able to be coordinated on a large scale long term basis pre-digital era. Al Jean said that he encouraged staff at the Simpsons’ relatively new in-house animation studio to work from home well before California’s stay-at-home orders and work wasn’t slowed in the slightest in spite of that. Could not have happened twenty years ago.

Good news, I didn’t have to lock the doors. Not sure what that would have done anyway, the doors are all glass.

@mrmattimation No roll-down shutters or pull-out gate or anything?
-
@mrmattimation Pretty sure my buddy's Rite-Aid has them, I seem to recall his apocalypse plan involving locking up the ground floor and living on the roof. Which was the same one I had for the PennySaver when I was there... and out of, like, so many movies.... What was I getting at? hehh

there’s a protest happening in front of my store tomorrow, and I support that, but if anybody starts looting I’m going to go apepapaya

Every now and then the guy who tried to molest me when I was in middle school comes into my store. Awkwaaaaaard.

@mrmattimation Peer or elder? (Like either way is even remotely tasteful...)
-
@scribus Peer, slightly older, we went to school together. I’m pretty flippant about it because “tried to” is a key phrase, I was fortunately able to recognize what was going on pretty quickly and remove myself from the situation.
-
@mrmattimation Yeeeeesh, that's still gotta be weird.
-
-
And I feel like the asshole for sitting here and watching them, after first shouting, then yelling, then cursing, then fuming, then apologizing, but I swear to god I have tried to grow something for years with setback after bullbanana failure and right now these goddamned gourds are about the only thing I have going for me in my life and I swear if anything happens to them I will jump in the pool wearing ankle weights

@scribus Do this with a few wooden poles or metal tubes and some wire. You can also use it as a support to lay a nylon or wire mesh on top if you expect hail. http://rainbowdash.net/attachment/875532
-
@nerthos Yeah, I'd thought about it for shade, but it didn't turn up necessary. Now that they're done, I expect that's it. They basically butchered the trees. :-/
-
@nerthos But ultimately, the question is, is it so goddamned hard to look where you're dropping kiwi? Or keep your customer's mess in their yard? Basic respect. Show one move's worth of forethought for those around you.

So do I cut the scene in The Twin Souls 5 where civilians start looting or nah
Saturday, 30-May-20 22:42:19 UTC from web-
@mrmattimation Guess it depends on whether or not the looting is a joke.
-
@scribus I don't think I'm capable of doing anything without making a joke about it (ie episode 4 had a very frank and real discussion about suicide with the subtext being that I, the creator, am depressed, followed immediately by a joke about it) but the scene as it currently exists is not a "joke"

@mrmattimation For decades a lot of countries have voting by mail. There are real world numbers how insignificant the frauds are. Also not giving people the opportunity to vote is soooo democratic.
-
@mrmattimation It's damn welcome, but I feel too little, too late.
-
@adiwan We’ve had states IN THE US that have been majority mail-in voting for YEARS before Covid. It’s just that they were all Republican states like Utah and Arizona. Wasn’t a problem before. Now that everyone else is doing it suddenly it’s an “invitation” for voter fraud. BS.

Two dozen people (including many children) fired up the grill and partied in plain sight of my window this afternoon. Because of those idiots we have all to suffer.

@scribus his campaign is a papayaing disaster so far. he planned to make up for inevitable lost ground in the midwest (specificially MI, WI, PA) by instead somehow winning Virginia and Colorado, without actually changing anything about the way he governs or campaigns to facilitate the six-point flip he would need for that. even as someone who hates the guy and wants him out as soon as possible, it's actually frustrating to watch him run a campaign so bad that Joe grapein Biden is winning Arizona and North Carolina

Disney+ has a collection titled "The Simpsons Predict the Future", which includes episodes of The Simpsons in which they make jokes that later became fact. One such episode is "Bart to the Future", in which Lisa mentions "President Trump", and "The Serfsons", where they predicted the ending to Game of Thrones, and "The City of New York Vs. Homer Simpson", where... uh...

@mrmattimation And the Lady Gaga episode, iirc, which uuhhhmmm.... evades me, at least.
-
@scribus Lady Gaga's performance in that episode was really similar to a halftime show that she would do after the episode aired so i'm assuming that's why that's there

@mrmattimation Ah.

@mrmattimation I thought you needed a certain threshold BEFORE it was okay
-
@scribus I think there’s a zone. Have below a certain amount, you’re weird. Have above a certain amount, you’re a creep and you’re abusing your power. But there’s gotta be a sweet spot where you’re famous enough to do it but not-famous enough to get away with it

That is to say: everything is animated together, then gets separated after the animation is done.
Wednesday, 15-Apr-20 23:23:37 UTC from web -
That was the first cartoon to utilize my new workflow which I think makes it the most overly-complicated grapepost I’ve ever done. Each character gets their own Flash file now and the animation is composited together in After Effects. Makes it easier to do effects like Mufasa blending with the clouds but it also means my folders are even messier than before, and they were already pretty messy. Here’s what the comp layers look like, will probably get more hectic for more convoluted cartoons. http://rainbowdash.net/url/875488
