If you're trying to "solve art" you're either incredibly stupid or incredibly evil. Art isn't a problem, it's a solution

I'm categorized as an AI subscriber, because I'm subscribed to the 3 TB tier of Google Drive and and they literally just changed the name of the plan to "Google AI Plus." Those "AI subscriber" numbers are 100 percent juiced and phony, and you're a sucker if you believe otherwise.

I do not like the way certain people keep saying Forgotten Island was too fast, but phrased in a way that’s an insult to younger generations. “It’s for short attention-span brain-rot kids!” I say this sincerely, from the bottom of my heart: Fuck you.

If you are unfamiliar with Lackadaisy, pick it up on Sweet Shop now. You will fall in love with it. And the Essentials (the art book) is fantastic. There are bits where readers have asked Tracy questions and she answers with comics... and those answers are fantastic comics.

Why is it that 26 years after I first played Final Fantasy VII on the PS1, my brain occasionally switches back to “O is confirm / X is cancel”. WHY.

Kubo is an excellent example of the journey being more important than the destination. The sword, the breastplate, and the helmet don’t matter. Everything that mattered was in the space between those things. God, I love this film more each time I revisit it.

Double feature today. Just saw #Coraline, now on to #KuboAndTheTwoStrings! I was not expecting to see a making of featurette for #Wildwood. God, seeing close-ups of the sets, props, and puppets on the big screen is INCREDIBLE. #LAIKA

...and I think that; particularly for stuff like WITCH HAT ATELIER and BERSERK, BLADE OF THE IMMORTAL, etc etc; these Deluxe/Library Editions just feel more SPECIAL. They are a more prestigious presentation of what I could consider prestigious material. Like...LOOK at Kamome-Sensei's art!

IDW did a really great job with this deluxe edition--it's got the whole series plus some fun extras in one beautifully designed volume with more gilding than it has any right to possess. The title is gilded! The binding is gilded! So much gold!

Speaking of Transformers, I'm annoyed another outlet got to speak to Robert Kirkman and didn't ask him about Warren Ellis. Just as well his run is apparently a disappointment I guess.

It frustrates me to no end the way people talk about themes in soundtracks as if the only thing that gives them any value is how catchy they are. Like John Williams’s Superman theme, which resulted in it being reused as a zombie version in the 2025 film. An poor imitation without understanding.

I am always gonna suggest a domain of your own as the best choice for hosting a webcomic, but if that simply isn't a possibility for you, check out this thread. You have options.

It’s interesting hearing the people at LAIKA discussing the Wildwood’s rating, and how it is what it is simply so they could be authentic to the story they were telling. (Which should always be the primary reason for a film’s reading, yet this rarely seems part of the conversation.)

Murielle Vuilleumier was a wonderful chocolatier in my city that made the most amazing truffles (especially the ones with matcha, yuzu, or pink champagne). Sadly, the store never reopened after the COVID lockdowns.

Little Amélie or the Character of Rain came out in February in Australia, and it’s easily my favourite. However, if it doesn’t count because it’s technically a 2025 film, then it’s Mother Mary.
