The latest Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episode has dropped the balls.
Friday, 10-Jul-20 17:04:50 UTC from web-
@adiwan that whole show is a dropped ball
-
-
*not actually for real this time, he hasn’t filed any of the paperwork and he’s straight-up too late to get onto the ballot in some states.

@mrmattimation Great now I need a detox
-
@scribus one of the things Biden has going for him is that he’s running against a maniac, if it was Biden vs Romney then Kanye would probably run off with a Ross Perot sized vote haul that ultimately would change nothing but would make him feel like he did something.
-
-
I'm not even sure some of these changes are "problems" and not more like "just an obvious place to maybe recast for a start," really?

@scribus the sentiment is nice and all but working from the societal equivalent of an F to a C- and calling it a day is not the big move they must think it is
-
@tiff Oh, and I totally get that. Like, a BW vid saying "I take responsibility" or whatever? Jegus... It's all been showboating and easy answers so far, it seems.
-
@scribus oh yeah that too, I was thinking about the industry at large but also individual people saying "I didn't know this racist thing I actively engaged in was racist" is something I don't often buy
-
-
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

@tiff Is it the Lethal Weapon one
-
@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

in the mood to chase someone off the site again, quick someone say something headass

@tiff apu wasn’t really that big of a problem
-
@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.
Sunday, 28-Jun-20 01:20:38 UTC from web-
@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

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

Is there a name for people who are basically terfs but instead they hate gay men because they think male homosexuality is the result of misogyny? I seem to recall knowing someone like that in high school.
Friday, 19-Jun-20 22:46:58 UTC from web-
@mrmattimation that's called being gay

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.

Started binge-watching Community. Before I have never watched more than a few episodes.
Thursday, 11-Jun-20 16:48:56 UTC from web-
@adiwan Community season 2 is one of my fave seasons of anything ever so I'd definitely take it that far at least. The rest ranges from okay to pretty good for me if you pretend the show ended with season 5
-
@tiff Finished Season 5 today and it was a stinker. I'm mid-season 6 and it ain't better.
-
@adiwan I got like 4 episodes into season 6 and gave up lmao, it is not the same show at all by that point
-
-
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?
-
@scribus Nope. That’s suburban America for you.
-
@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

@mrmattimation Company's property, just like it's the bank's money. :p But I genuinely hope it remains peaceful. Thinking of jumping in outside of your shift?

@scribus It’s running concurrently with my shift so I can’t join in. :P

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.

Does anyone else find it particularly gross when for-profit corporations send messages about donating to charities or supporting a particular political opinion that doesn't have to do with their main business? It makes sense on the hiring end of course, and I get that companies are made of humans, but doing it on the public end just feels like capitalizing on people's emotions. The realty group holding my apartment made a donation to a campaign related to the protests. Why not give that money back to your leasers, or even your employees instead? They can then choose to do what they want with it.

@thismightbeauser dismantling systemic racism at its core by making a vague "black people deserve to not die" statement on twitter and then asking the patrons of my multi-million dollar company to donate money for me

I wonder what news today will bring. I'm waiting for the stress to be the one last thing for Spraytan's heart.

@tiff I was hoping, man, I was hoping...

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"
-
-
When I was in high school I used to talk endless batcave on BLM because I was dumb and saw Ferguson on TV and, in a profound inability to recognize my own privilege, clung to the idea that the riots were a failure of the community, instead of a result of failure by society. I’m truly, truly sorry to anyone I offended with that kinda BS

@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.

@tiff Oh, just let me organize a rant on content warnings, and how an initially good and considerate idea has turned into a mollycoddle circlejerk, and if you're so terrified of spiders that I can't say "Spider-Man" that's YOUR problem, etc etc
-
@scribus I am wholly sympathetic towards people with those sorts of predispositions but at the same time we are at (arguably past) the point where people act like the Internet should be catered towards them and their sensibilities specifically and it's to the detriment of years of societal progress

Does Papa Spraytan not realize that the "Liberate" halfwits who are going to get themselves and their families killed following his quarterwit advice are the same braindead followers who he needs to stuff the ballot box in November?

@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

@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
