it's so funny when movie companies (and maybe still now) always labelled horror movies as thrillers so not to "condemn" their movies before they're released and also get them nominated for awards. jaws and the silence of the lambs come to mind (i will not accept anyone saying the silence of the lambs is not horror or jaws, they're both horror)

The absolute fucking irony of Hiccup "Drowns A Lot" Haddock of getting this loves water quirk.

Also, not the element I would associate him with, actually. You can't take the sky from him.

Propaganda below the cut:

This starts off as artifact descriptions and stories of the artifacts in the Mistholm Museum of Mystery Morbidity and Mortality(a museum that specializes in the “unknown and surreal”) told to you by an AI called the Audio Tour Guide. Gradually, it begins to develop an overarching plot about events going on at the Museum in Season 2. Would recommend this to people who really enjoyed the format of the Magnus Archives (a mixture of shorter stories that may or may not be related to the greater plot with some but not much plot-relevant events in between) although it is way less scary / depressing than the Magnus Archives.

Am I the dummie who has been wondering why she has been fighting a migraine all week while simultaneously devouring books on a tiny old phone with a speed she hasn't reached since she was 12?

Yeah. Eyestrain is real folks. I've swapped over to my paper white, which I've had the whole time, just didn't think to use for some reason sksksks

The New Gabe Order Will Celebrate KQED Plus' (KQEH's) 60th Anniversary With A Spotlight Show Of The Science Fiction Night!

Salutations, anime fans. I am Gabriel Ramos, DJ and broadcaster of Toon Time Theater. October 19 will be a special day, because KQED Plus (KQEH) will turn 60 this year, and I wanted to showcase the programs of the Science Fiction Night that aired between 1996 and 2003. When I was born in Hayward, California, I had access to the network back when they were known as KTEH. However, I didn't know they aired science fiction anime on Sunday nights until I read about how Tenchi Universe aired on American TV networks for the first time. My brother got into Neon Genesis Evangelion because of KTEH, and since then, he watched the series from time to time.

On October 19 at 9 PM PDT, join me for a 7-series Spotlight Show showcasing select animated programs that aired on the KQED Plus Science Fiction Night back in the day. Plus, there will be a sneak peek of the New Gabe Order's special Toon Time Theater edition of Key the Metal Idol, which will reach the 30 year milestone this year.

Anyways, here are the lineups that will be played on October 19, but you don't have to take my word for it.

The inclusion of Key the Metal Idol is dedicated to my late father, Oscar Ramos, who was into computers and got me (and my brother) into computer technology. I had to use whatever I learned on VEGAS Pro and OpenToonz to edit all 15 episodes so Twitch would be less likely to confiscate my channel due to live-streaming risqué content. (Thanks, Dad. It's been a month since you lived until your last breath. Hopefully I'll use all your computer knowledge to help others in this world until I die one day.)

I think the best part of the babbledrogs’ translation gas as a mechanic of the setting is that any weird dialogue bits that wouldn’t normally make sense with the worldbuilding can just be considered the translation contextualizing for an earthling point of view

Since my time away from Tumblr, I found myself getting into and loving the Macross franchise. Here are the alternative colors and alternative concept works for the YF-19 and VF-5000G by Shoji Kawamori. I swear, Kawamori-Sensei has nothing but absolute bangers for his mecha designs most of the time.

I def want to use these color schemes for future painted builds. I hope I can get some of his art books really soon.
