#God we're so fucked

[kanasous]

no because like. the veil looking floaty piece of fabric in kanatas card falling off of him and hes facing forwards and he looks like hes in motion and how soumas card has him completely out of the water and again, facing forwards with a smile, ready to keep moving, how theyve both been moving towards the future happily and with pride. contrasting against madara, curled, on the ground, the water washes over him and still leaves him soaked, face that screams Hopelessness. in last mission it seems (ive only read the livetl threads, and only once) he came to the conclusion that he was basically just an overgrown child, that his idea of being a mama was nothing more than clinging onto the childish urge to keep playing house with kanata. hes stuck, he cant keep moving like the other two, he cant even stand up.

RIP Information Age (1970-2024). It was fun while it lasted.

Democrats give such few fucks about addressing climate change, they aren't even pretending that Biden is keeping the promises he made on the campaign trail in 2020 and are in fact bragging about how much Biden has increased domestic oil production.

(for the record you should vote for Biden if you're in a swing state, but genuinely fuck these ghouls. what an awful, awful country we live in)

listen I expected literally Nothing from the D&D movie okay, like I can't make it clear enough that I expected the most soulless money grab with a good cgi budget imaginable, I went in having already gone through every stage of grief and landed on acceptance and LISTEN

I fucking CRIED during this dumb RPG movie. it wasn't just "not terrible" it was objectively good with a clever plot and compelling characters and sincere emotional beats. this movie loves D&D so fucking much and it NAILS the "a bunch of goobers try to be cool and accidentally discover The Power Of Friendship And Also Great Violence" classic D&D party vibe. their barbarian's last name is fucking Kilgore and my entire family cried in the theater.

I hope they make twelve of these motherfuckers.

MK: "What!? But you said the Samadhi Fire was the only thing that could stop her!"

Sun Wukong: "I know what I said! But I've beaten her before I'll- I'll do it again! Mei was right—I need to stop dragging you into my fights! All of you."

Dragging everyone into his messfights.

Sun Wukong: "I know I can never make it up to you. Honestly, I- I never thought I'd live as long as I have let alone be someone's mentor—turns out I'm not very good at it. I guess what I'm trying to say is...I'm sorry MK. For all of it." MK: "It's okay—I can always get another bowl of noodles."

Sun Wukong: "Wha! No! Not the noodles! Ugh! I mean, I'm sorry for being a bad mentor and making you clean up after my mess!"

Macaque: "No that's YOU! You're the one always running off! Looking for more power, more sources of immortality—you're the one who wouldn't quit while were were ahead! Not the great sage, he's got to drag EVERYONE else into his mess!"

I'm so mad that post was misinformation because there is actually an EXTREMELY important conversation to have about the production schedules artists are forced into. There's no need for exaggeration, the conditions are bad.

I work for webtoon. My publication schedule is weekly. While publishing I'm required 10-15 pages a week. Fully colored.

This means I'm finishing a 150 page fully colored graphic novel every 10-15 weeks.

When my comic is not updating, I am not getting paid. Any time writing, editing, or off is out of my own pocket. I don't get healthcare. They do not provide any assistants. They expect me to promote myself; they chose to deprioritize me before I even launched and gave me an end date half a year in. I never had a chance.

And this is the industry standard! Every company has artists forced into crunch hours, overtime, and burnout. Artists are literally dying early due to it. So many of my friends can't afford to go to the doctor.

It's unsustainable and untenable, and it's also the expectation our audiences have.

If we want to have this conversation, there's plenty of conversation to be had with the realities of the situation. It's bad as is.

[oidheadh-con-culainn]

it does make me laugh when general purpose academic advice is like "all citations must be RECENT, if it's over ten years old it's probably been superseded" and it's like. maybe in sciences bro but over here i still regularly have to cite stuff from the 19th century because nobody has written on the topic since
