I have news for him: Guys dress like so called "whores" at the gym, too - Tight shorts or leggings - Form fitting shirts, skimpy tank tops, t-shirt with arms+sides cut off so nip slips happen constantly He just doesn't take note *AND* to people like him men can't be what he deems "whores."

I don't know; I feel like it's pretty clear why living under queer-hating fascists would make people less likely to identify publicly as queer.

Fun fact: I came up with that ep of Dex Lab because crew member Dave Smith wanted to meet Paul Williams, asking if I could come up with a story for him to guest voice Dave storyboarded/co-wrote & did music for that ep. He got to not only meet Paul but work on a song with him, too. It was a delight

Jason Butler Rote @jasonrote.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Love it! BTW: When I pitched the idea for that ep nobody liked it... except Craig McCracken - he loved it. Usually, when only one other person vibed with an idea, I moved on to another with more consensus, but Craig insisted he wanted it so the others shrugged & said okay And Craig rocked it

“This is the first time in my adult life where there's been an issue that's come up that I feel like is going to directly impact me,” says Dave Lowe, a lifelong conservative Republican who lives near a proposed data center in Texas.

Fun (or not.. probs not) rando fact: BIS contacted The Powerpuff Girls creator, Craig McCracken, to do a music video for them - he wasn't available at the time but he and I (and others on crew) liked their music + vibe so they were commissioned for the end credz song

That's the silly brain of Craig Mc - he'd be delighted you saw that juxtaposition as a kid And also gotta give Genndy T props for supporting such silliness Also, aside from creating The Powerpuff Girls in college, Craig also did these (note the title art similar to puppet pals)

Craig McCracken & Dave Smith worked the live-action puppets. All "timing" was done by them on-the-spot - Dave was into puppets as a hobby Btw: all or most Dex Lab eps that had musical numbers were storyboarded/co-written by Dave
