So many people got yelled at for months on here when they correctly pointed out that Gavin Newsom was a rat.

What you need to understand is nothing we built was “off the shelf.” Store-bought environmental assets for stop-motion features do not exist. We were given concept art and told “make it look like this.” Everything you see here, down to the dirt and moss, was meticulously designed and crafted.

The fact we have an executive class that doesn't know what to do with the Looney Tunes or The Muppets really sums up what a joyless, barren world they inhabit.

Damn it. Tim Curry's gone home. If we take nothing else from the two losses these past two days it's to proudly be who you are. Fuck the haters RIP Tim Curry. You inspired a generation of horror kids and outsiders not to dream it, but to be it. Thank you

The coolest thing you can do is comment on older art and fics. Commented already? Comment again. The creator would probably LOVE to hear you're enjoying it again. Slow down the fandom cycle, let's keep enjoying and appreciating things!!

Disney has now shelved three episodes featuring storylines centered on transgender characters and gender identity. The episodes, from ‘Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur,’ ‘The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder,’ and ‘Win or Lose,’ were either cut from release or have since leaked online.

Musk and his culture war chuds are somehow still crashing out over Nolan's Odyssey instead of moving on to the next outrage, weaving conspiracy theories about no-show ticketholders and churning out their own AI slop scenes based on Homer's epic.

‘The Odyssey’ Is Inspiring Unprecedented Levels of Cope
Elon Musk and the online right convinced themselves that Christopher Nolan’s “woke” epic would go down in flames. Now they’re crashing out.

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references. Enter this: a repository of open-access, AI-free images of wild & exotic taxa. Artists creating *without AI* have blanket permission for derivative/transformative use.

Matt Damon revealed his stunt double in ‘The Odyssey’ was a woman.

“My double was a woman, a female stunt performer who had the greatest arms I’ve ever seen. When she came into the catering tent, it was the first time I met her. I went up and hugged her and thanked her for all the work she put in.”

Are you having fanatical thoughts about other people's crotches?
Has hating a minority group become your entire personality?
Do you obsess over other people's toilet use?
If so, you could be a danger to others - it's time to seek help.

Well, this article is incredibly depressing for cooking enthusiasts. The short version: private equity has, over the last couple of decades, quietly bought up most of the classic brands you’ve heard of and then traded on their names while drastically cutting quality and closing American factories

WHOA DHS does not say that the agent feared for his life… just the vague concern for “public safety.” So he killed him just because he did not want him in America, not because of any specific threat to agents?
