The people who died and went to hell 10 years ago are going to be very surprised when Bill Cosby eventually shows up.

[almacambiondaughterofsaleos]

So Family man Tv show Vox. Is the Bill Cosby of hell. Bill was beloved respect person before the world knew he was monster. So Charlie tries to take Vox down for Angel (Who is actor in this au) Sure Charlie can easily kill him but Vox is in a place where if Charlie did anything it would just make people of hell hate her and put her Hotel and her friends at risk. Giving a reason why Charlie doesn't kill him immediately. "You maybe the princess. But I'm uncle Voxy, Hell's dad. So try it bitch."

Good idea

Exposing Justin Bieber [someone who works in the industry, runs in the same circles as him posted this on reddit].

TW: Racism, R@pe, Abuse.

I found this on reddit, as a Selena fan I'm sick of people still shipping her with her abuser hence wanted to share how terrible her ex truly is from an actual insider.

---------------------------------------------------------

Let's talk about Justin Bieber i.e. the teenager who has physical assault allegations against him since 2010, who talked about joining the kkk & eliminate an entire race, who admitted to abusing his relationships and disrespecting women but in the same paragraph gaslighted everyone saying "he's changed" & victimized himself in the name of "god" multiple times, admitted to being an addict & cheating, also infamously called women 'female dogs', a 14yr old plus size female fan 'a beached whale',

Funny how everyone forgot that when he was accused of r*pe and sexual assault by multiple women - he hired Bill Cosby's lawyer, and filed the $20-million suit to prevent his alleged victims from ever coming out (...the temporary defamation suits - the legal cases which most of the guilty male celebrities use when they are accused of assault and r*pe), this man settled multiple abuse suits against him, made them sign multiple NDAs. Multiple reports and articles were removed by his manager & team in which they claimed several minor girls were found unconscious and drugged out at his parties and they were made to sign multiple NDAs.

His pr team is encouraging, editing and paying videos about victimizing him when he was never a victim, Bieber had physical assault against him by other teens before he was famous (he hung out with straight men and was famous from the beginning unlike the struggling female child actors who survived through hell).

JB was Diddy's favorite student. D treated him like his son (note: D's biological son is also accused of sa and abuse like Bieber). D praised him multiple times, they even released a song together few months back. But when D's allegation were viral him and his team twisted the narrative making Biebs the victim. It's false and baseless, but it's just one of the main narratives which the Bieber pr team banks on, they paid across all social media platforms to spread it like the pizzagate theory (which was used to market 'yummy') to garner sympathy and to remain in the limelight without any projects. So you can guess how much PR agencies and paid social media comments play a major role to shift a perpetrator into a victim and complete misinformation.

Remember when Taylor Swift exposed Scooter & his clients back in 2020 and Selena Gomez also said Justin Bieber abused her. And how conveniently people forget Bieber praised Chris Brown "no one could touch you" during the time when Brown was accused of r*pe and sa, he also associates himself with Marilyn Manson, R.Kelly, among many other 'alleged' rap*sts... The list of atrocities he gets away with goes on and on...

Many sources (credible blinds, friends and people who go to church with the couple) said that his wife is 'allegedly' aware of his history and problematic behavior, But she doesn't give a damn about it, since she cares more about their public image and 'happy pap shoots' than the victims, anything else. "

Also why does Justin Bieber keep hiring managers who have experience and history in paying off their client's victims ?

[" ESMG - 'Exposing Selena Marie Gomez' which has been slickly changed into 'Exposing Scandalous Media Groups' in recent years inorder to spread hate on Selena Gomez with "pretend unbiased-ness".

I can 100% guarantee that they have zero sources they just copy and paste information from tabloids and EntLawyer blinds (ELB are same as Deuxmoi, they have very few legit sources hence 50-50).

It is very psychotic how they 40+year old women (ESMG) Angela and Shannon Lester have been harassing and bullying S Gomez since sixteen years. Few rumors I heard is that, Braun & Bieber donate, encourage these blogs. Regardless it has been very evident that Bieber and co. use bots to spread misinformation and hate on Gomez ever since she opened about how he abused her. It is paid hate inorder to influence others to join in too. "]

I think too many people have decided that media consumption (or refusal to consume some media) is not only a form of activism, but the highest form of activism.

So to be clear you can read a book, watch a movie etc without agreeing with the actions or the view points of the characters even the main character. Watching John Wick doesn't mean you believe in guns as the answer to problems. Watching Dirty Harry doesn't mean you endorse police violence. We can go on and on here, but basically watching or reading a piece of media doesn't mean you agree with the characters and their actions and often times media is made intentionally complex to make a character questionable or indeed outright bad while we still are made to understand them.

You also can read or watch a work and not agree with the author's politics. HP Lovecraft was a horrible racist, antisemite, hated women etc, but he's long long dead, hell Walt Disney hated Jews, hated them, loathed them, that doesn't mean you're a Nazi if you watch Snow White.

Of course life is complex so there are a few areas where you should boycott buying someone's work. One is when the author is objectively a horrible human being and is still alive so you buying their work will support them. This would be like Woody Allen, R. Kelly, Bill Cosby, and Roman Polanski to name a few off the top of my head, they're horrible sex criminals, your support allows Allen, Cosby and Polanski to support their life styles sadly out of jail.

a second group is when authors (or I guess copyright holders) have political views you disagree with and have made it clear they will spend the money you give them on their politics. This is JK Rowling of course, but also Orson Scott Card, author of Ender's Game, who is a devote Mormon and has given a lot of his money to the Church but also to anti-gay movements like Prop8 back in 2008, it was on the board of a national anti-gay marriage org, any ways buy Ender's Game used is what I'm saying.

Most books are just books, they may have themes or ideas in there that are political or cultural and you may feel some way about those but mostly they're stories first. However a small number of books are political manifesto dressed up as work of fiction. Most famously, Ayn Rand's The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged which pretend to be novels but really are odes to Rand's political philosophy that greed, and selfishness are really good things and helping the poor is evil. If you want to know what the worst people in government are talking about and want to suffer through some of the worst writing imaginable, pirate it. Rand didn't believe the government should help people so you know no copyright for you.

Finally there are a very small, tiny handful of books you really just shouldn't read. I'm thinking here of like The Turner Diaries. Like Atlas Shrugged, The Turner Diaries are political manifesto pretending to be a novel. It's basically the Bible of neo-Nazis so unless you're an academic studying the modern white supremacy after WWII, you have no reason to ever read it (same with Mein Kampf, but I've limited myself to works of fiction)

Freaknik: The Musical | March 7, 2010 - 11:30PM | Special

Whither That Crook’d ‘Sipp? 

Freaknik: the Musical! A special that I’m ill-equipped to truly go deep on because 1) I am a cracker-ass and 2) I live in a hell of my own making and sometimes it's far too difficult to tune out. Oh well! I’ll give it a shot, yuh know? See what happens! Also: I pledge to not google anything about this, so I will be speaking from my threadbare knowledge of the subject at hand.

Freaknik is based on a real-life recurring block party, or outdoor music fest, or something like that, held, uh, probably annually in, I’m guessing, Atlanta, Georgia. It probably has rap stuff going on and people probably have a lotta fun listening to live music and attempting to find sex partners among it's many attendees. I have gleaned this from the special itself, as well as the fact that when you search for this to see if it’s playing on any streaming services you’ll instead find a documentary called “Freaknik: a big party that happens” or something like that. 

This special follows a likable rap group who are down on their luck. They intend to travel to the big event so they can compete in some battle of the bands type thing. The party is happening because Freaknik, a ghostly personification of the party itself, has sprung back to life. I forget how. He’s a black ghost with money signs all over himself and hes real charismatic. He embodies good times, blackness, and above all, love. We see him going on a publicity tour, while a council of hater-ass black establishment figures (including mostly unidentified-but recognizable figures like Oprah, Jesse Jackson, Bill Cosby, and Al Sharpton) all scheme to stop Freaknik once and for all. 

The rap group have little adventures along the way, such as a memorable stop at a white frat. They tangle with a rival rap group, who look just like them. They meet a car full ‘o bitches and a brand new bong. One of the "bitches" is a character from That Crook’d ‘Sipp, but with a different name. There is almost no continuity between the two specials, just reused assets. That’s probably a best case scenario for That Crook’d ‘Sipp, which is maybe one of my least favorite things I’ve ever watched on Adult Swim. This is far from the worst thing. In fact, it’s fairly solid. 

That Crook’d ‘Sipp felt like it was speaking an alien language, and was borderline incomprehensible. This doesn’t feel that way. But, and I mean this in a non-insulting way, this show doesn’t feel like it’s for me. It’s a flavor I have a bit of a shallow distaste for. This is ultimately a good thing! I like when shows get on the air that are very specific and meant to appeal to a certain segment of the population.

I could quibble with the humor here and there, but I don’t think this special was designed with specifically pleasing me in mind. So why don’t I focus on the positive, instead? In fact, why doesn't everyone do this when faced with stuff that's not specifically for them? Okay , here I go: the characters are colorful! A lot of the drawings are great, funny, and cartoony! Even when it felt like it was about to veer into broad, stereotypical humor, it still pleasantly surprised me by aiming higher! It wasn’t boring, and a lot of the songs were pretty goddamn great! 

I actively enjoyed three moments in particular. One was the bit where Tyra Banks goes undercover as a corpse. This was a parody of the time she went undercover as an obese person utilizing a fat suit. (whoops, I googled this, just because I thought maybe I was confusing her with the episode of Fresh Prince of Bel Air where Will did that. Wait, wasn’t she on that show? Aw, geez!)

Moment two: the frat bros, who have their party shut down by the cops (you’ll hear famous white people Andy Sandburg and Bill Hader in this scene). When the cops leave, they lament being targeted by them, but then one says “I kinda like cops though, because they found the guy that killed my mom.” This right here is my favorite line in the show. 

The other part I liked, which I recalled from watching this way back when, was the scene where Al Sharpton is watching the news report that he died in his home after being struck by lightning. He looks around quizzically and then it happens. A lotta really fun cartoon gags like that are in this! I respect it!

Not my favorite thing to air on Adult Swim; not by a long shot. But the more I think about this show, especially its final act, the more I think that this special is pretty undervalued and underseen, and that’s a real shame. I honestly think that Adult Swim really should try to bring this back at some capacity. Maybe repeat it with a special promotion? Maybe a sequel? Maybe there’s a reason for it's absence that has nothing to do with Adult Swim or their parent company. But I think if they pushed this back out into the world and tried to get more eyes on it, only good things would come. 

MAIL BAG: 

From KON:

The funniest thing I ever said in my life was about Freaknik: The Musical. The special aired on the same night as the Oscars that year, the year that The Hurt Locker FAMOUSLY upset Avatar and won best picture. When the winner was announced, at one point they cut to James Cameron looking pissed. I said, "he's mad because he's missing Freaknik." Thank you, thank you

BIG LOL. I really do hope that he DVR’d it. And that he didn’t get it on DVD, because the DVD looks like shit. I hope he DVR'd it, or had a 1080p webrip from cartoonchaos on his seedbox.

THANK you for your neon knome review. As one of five people on planet earth who actually likes the problem solverz I'm glad to see another fan out there. Granted, PS was nowhere near as good as Neon Knome (even one of Ben Jones' own friends said it was 'too shouty'), but it's definitely not like, "Consistently and infamously ranked the worst cartoon of all time among a large amount of people" bad. Most of the hate seems to be from people who hate the brash art style and think the colors hurt their eyes, and from people who think that Alfe is annoying. I'll give them the latter, but like you said the style is very deliberate and I like how... 'visceral', it is, for lack of a better word. I unironically feel it was just too ahead of it's time and aired on the wrong network. This was when tumblr normies were geeking out over Adventure time, so something like this freaked them the F out and it stuck cause of word of mouth. Kinda like how Freddy Got Fingered was called 'the worst movie of all time' until pretty recently. I think if Neon Knome came out 15 years later, on [AS] in it's original form, people would love it. Cruelty Squad has like 10,000 positive reviews on Steam and it's just as visually abrasive/experimental as this is.

Thanks! Hopefully Criterion Channel will add Problem Solverz to it’s line-up so we can properly reassess it’s place in the culture at large. It does feel like if it got deleted by Zaslav that nobody in the world (except you and me, I guess) would stick up for it. People all snarkily saying “at least he got this one right”. The snark would be off the charts. The snark charts.

[beardedmrbean]

Oh btw it was zoomer Huey that pointed out the BP hypocrisy. Also yeah about the entitlement black Americans have towards black Panther

>That was created by 2 Jewish men as well, which if the current system is running that means they're white too, (handy when it's not flip flopping every other day, someone puts a horn in a game they're an oppressed minority. )

I shit you not I saw a black socialist YouTuber saying he was surprised that white guys could write stories about a black man protecting his home from invaders

Are you saying you surprised that T’Challa fought to protect his home by invaders even though he was created, written, and overview by

SONS

OF

DAVID?!

It not like half of the holidays Kirby and Lee grew up and celebrated their entires lives were based off how many times invaders tried to wipeout their people but failed

But here the thing about that racist person

It hurts writers like ME

I want more black mecha pilots, I want more black stories tbh told.

But I DONT want them to be solely defined by their races and act racist as fuck

Fuck I hate modern black writers, they are the childhood bullies that now call their victims coons when they get pointed out

It not like half of the holidays Kirby and Lee grew up and celebrated their entires lives were based off how many times invaders tried to wipeout their people but failed

That bit about Louis Armstrong and his Lithuanian Jewish neighbors who he was surprised to see were still treated badly by other "white™ people" I don't blame him for not getting the whole Jewish thing, people still don't as you've seen lately.

I want more black mecha pilots, I want more black stories tbh told. But I DONT want them to be solely defined by their races and act racist as fuck Fuck I hate modern black writers, they are the childhood bullies that now call their victims coons when they get pointed out

That's one of the nice thing about scifi just make everyone not human, but that doesn't work for what you want I know.

Could go and watch "Our Gang" see how Buckwheat does his thing.

Jefferson's were great hell Cosby show was good, bill kinda killed that being wholesome the same way we lost 7th heaven except stephen collins didn't fight it.

I loved Sanford and Son as a kid, we wouldn't get something like that now, not because of white racists but because everyone seems to be dead set on making everyone a stereotypical representation of their race/skin colour.

You, just write your stories though don't bother with the haters.

One of the good things about making Dumbledore gay after the fact is nobody could try and dissect his behaviour to say X is gay culture.

I also don't think the Rowling thought about him being gay till after the fact anyhow, but in the end for the one character it doesn't really matter.

Only thing that changed when the announcement was made other than the jokes was that ok he was gay, had no baring on his character at all.

So write your stories and whomever is black they can be black just write them however you feel.

I think South Park is great for all that since we get Token Black, and he's treated exactly the same as all the other kids by all the other kids.

They rip on him.

Navigating Narcissism Podcast: Helping Those Who Battle The Self-Involved

Psychological disorders seem to be trendy, just like fashion, memes, and food. Two decades ago, bipolar disorder was a thing. Any disruptive or toxic person seemed to be diagnosed as bipolar. Today's go-to psychological diagnosis is narcissism. I was at a dinner party where gossiping about non-participants was expected. For every lurid tale of bad behavior, someone concluded with: "They're a narcissist."

Don't get me wrong. The world is full of narcissists, but not every Karen is a narcissist and not every narcissist is a Karen. I think many people have a sketchy idea of what defines a narcissist. So let's try to do that. 

"Narcissism is extreme self-involvement to the degree that it makes a person ignore the needs of those around them. While everyone may show occasional narcissistic behavior, true narcissists frequently disregard others or their feelings. They also do not understand the effect that their behavior has on other people."

That's why the podcast Navigating Narcissism with Dr. Ramani can help people to deal with true narcissists.

The elevator pitch for the show is: "We all have to deal with narcissists. Now, it’s time to heal from them. In this groundbreaking series, clinical psychologist and world’s leading expert on narcissism Dr. Ramani Durvasula talks to survivors and experts to help millions left reeling from narcissistic abuse."

The Navigating Narcissism podcast can break down classic narcissistic patterns like manipulation, control, gaslighting, and love bombing and help unpack feelings of betrayal, shame, confusion, pain.

The host of the show is Ramani Suryakantham Durvasula, who is an American clinical psychologist, retired professor of psychology, media expert, and author. In 1989, Durvasula obtained a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Connecticut. She has also received a Master of Arts in Psychology and a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Clinical Psychology from the UCLA in 1997.

So the good doctor is eminently qualified. 

 She has also appeared on media outlets discussing narcissistic personality disorder and narcissistic abuse, including Red Table Talk, Bravo, the Lifetime Movie Network, National Geographic, and the History Channel, as well as programs such as the TODAY show and Good Morning America.

I mention these TV appearances so you can understand that Dr. Ramani is good in front of the mic and camera. She's comfortable on her podcast discussing one of her areas of expertise, and she's a solid interviewer. Unlike other podcast psychologists, Dr. Ramani does not make extravagant claims about treatments and cures.

Dr. Ramani also reminds listeners that "this podcast should not be used as a substitute for medical or mental health advice." One of the most intriguing yet disturbing episodes was about Hollywood producer Scott Rudin, who The New York Post called "Hollywood’s Biggest A-hole." The male guest was not identified by name and had his voice modulated. 

In her opening, Dr. Ramani explains that Rudin is one of those rare producers who have won a EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony). But the doctor chides, "You can spell EGOT without ego." The episode is a freak show of horrible behavior by Rudin, who adopts a familiar delusion that geniuses can get away with anything. Listen to the episode, and realize that Hollywood -- with its Weinstein's, Rudin's, Mel Gibson's, Bill Cosby's, -- can be hell on earth.

 Dr. Ramani has an episode on narcissism in the fashion industry. In another powerful episode, we hear from Dylan Farrow, daughter of actor Mia Farrow, about surviving sexual abuse, and one of the engrossing episodes was in June 2023 when Dr. Ramani talked to singer Jewel about how she survived an abusive father, a mother who abandoned and betrayed her and found healing in the most profound ways.

The June 2023 episode with dancer Cheryl Burke relates an all too familiar tale of a family friend who raped her as a child. 

In her September 28, 2023, episode, Dr. Ramani eschews guests for an Ask Dr. Ramani episode. Dr. Ramani answered listeners' deep questions about the most difficult - but most effective - way to heal from narcissistic abuse: going no contact. While that seems self-evident as a successful strategy, Dr. Ramani has taught us loyal listeners that narcissists have powerful weapons at their disposal -- gaslighting, playing the victim, love bombing, and blameshifting. 

Check out Navigating Narcissism with Dr. Ramani. Whether your particular narcissist is in your workplace, in your family, or in your own home, the podcast episodes can help people identify and then separate from narcissists.

As Dr. Ramani once said, “Relationships with narcissists are held in place by the hope of a ‘someday better,’ with little evidence to support it will ever arrive.”

Not Chris Benoit's disgusting cultist fans saying they should make a biopic about him and glorifying the sack of shit. No fuck you.

I will say the same thing about when they petition him to be in the WWE HOF.

“But his workrate” I DON’T GIVE A FUCKING SHIT ABOUT HIS FUCKING WORKRATE. HE BRUTALLY MURDERED HIS WIFE AND KILLED HIS SON. HE HAD THE CHOICE, THEY DIDN’T, FUCK HIM.

No one talks about OJ’s football stats, cause him being a MURDERER outweighs that

No one talks about Bill Cosby’s comedy or movies, cause him being a rapist outweighs that.

No one talks about Hitler's artistic talent, cause him being a genocidal warmongering racist cunt outweighs that.

No matter how good his work rate was, it will forever be tarnished and overshadowed by brutally murdering his wife and drugging & suffocating his own son.

JR, Stone Cold and Paul Heyman have said it best.

What Jim Ross said

“Chris Benoit does not belong in the WWE Hall of Fame now or ever”

"Chris Benoit does not belong in the Hall of Fame now or ever, simply because the last 48 hours of his life is what everybody would want to focus on, they don't want to talk about Brad Armstrong and Chris Benoit having a hell of a wrestling match at Clash of Champions.

"I don't think he would like that. Is his skill set good enough to go into the Hall of Fame? Oh my God, yes. Is it all about your skill set? No, it's not. He would be a distraction and unfair to the other talents being inducted and their families."

What Stone Cold said "He's one of the most talented, hard working people I've seen in the squared circle. Anybody who knew Chris would tell you those exact things. One night, Chris ended up killing his wife and his kid; that is an act so terrible and horrible, I can't even comprehend or even guess as to what happened in that house. That will always overshadow any accomplishment that Chris Benoit had in the ring. He'll never be in the Hall of Fame, it'll just never happen. His career will speak for itself, but his record as a human being is first and foremost, and his actions will never be forgotten. Chris Benoit as the person I knew? Loved him. Chris Benoit as a wrestler? Loved him. Chris Benoit the person who did what he did? Unforgivable. Bottom line."

Like Paul Heyman said, “Yeah you can admire his work all you want, but I’ll give you my take on it since you keep on yelling out ‘my boy’—three people died in that house that night, three. Three people died in that house that night, only one person had the choice behind it. The other two didn’t have a choice to die. So if that’s your boy, fuck you. So a talent? Remarkable. As a human being? I don’t care about CTE, I don’t care what the reasons are Nancy and Daniel had no option, he did. Fuck him.”

He ducktaped Nancy, broke her back over his knee and strangled her. he brutalized her. Then he drugged Daniel and suffocated him. Whatever happened between Chris and Nancy ended violently. There was a history of an abusive relationship. Yes there were drugs, yes, there was CTE, but Sandra starts and stops a story from years earlier where Benoit hurt Nancy and says “out of respect for his surviving kids, I’ll stop.” There was a pattern of abuse. There was an existing pattern of behavior with Benoit and domestic violence. Grunge was over there a number of times to sort things out. There was obviously a lot of this information that was withheld. The documentary also glossed over key details, like Chris taking out an insurance policy on Nancy and Daniel a month earlier. It was planned & he fully intended to go to Vengeance and Raw had he not heard the cops were coming. My opinion on what caused it is Nancy has had enough and threatened to leave and take Daniel away and that’s what caused this tragedy.

He didn’t snap or lose his mind. He premeditated the murders and made sure his son wouldn’t suffer. Sounds to me like a Familicide. This wasn’t a CTE/drug/alcohol fueled, spontaneous rage fit where he regretted it afterward. This was pre-meditated. He planted a knife under Daniel’s bed. He planted Bibles by their dead bodies. Left messages for everyone to find the bodies. He googled specific Bible passages and the quickest way to snap your neck. He planned this to happen

No matter how much you loved him as a wrestler or how much you admire his work, murdering your wife and son disqualifies you from ever entering the Hall Of Fame. It grinds my gears that every year, some female star gets her parade rained on because the HoF is some hallowed achievement that also means nothing by the people campaigning for a domestic abusing murderer to be inducted in their place. It’s honestly the most disgusting part of being a wrestling fan.

It's bad enough there are psychotic fans who want him to be in the Hall Of Fame. Now they want there to be a movie made about him?

We don't need a movie glorifying the child murdering sack of shit.

This is stupid. Look at what happened after Dahmer on Netflix. People are still humanizing him to this day due to the show. All this will do is give Benoit defenders more shit to whitewash him with.

Chris Benoit does not deserve any more acknowledgment or recognition. Regardless of his past accomplishments, his actions were evil, and he's a monster. He doesn't deserve the attention anymore.

Jonathan Majors has had one of the quickest downfalls I’ve ever seen. The man had back to back #1 movies at the box office and there was talk of him being a potential Oscar contender next year. Marvel is definitely gonna recast him, they have no choice. This situation is not going away. There are MULTIPLE victims and more and more keeps coming out about his abusive behavior not just towards women but also on set. I also think it’s very telling that not a single one of his peers has spoken out in his defense cause these celebs will ride for the absolute worst people. You had people defending Bill Cosby like he was their own father. Even Tory Lanez had the biggest rapper in the world calling Megan a liar. Hollywood loves to rehabilitate horrible men but I just don’t see that happening for Jonathan I think his career is done

Jonathan Majors has had one of the quickest downfalls I’ve ever seen. The man had back to back #1 movies at the box office and there was talk of him being a potential Oscar contender next year.

Giiiiirrrrrrrrrll..... That downfall came so QUICK it made my head spin! 😅🤣

I ain't NEVER seen a downfall happen that fast in Hollywood lol. Lawwwd...he was JUST at the Oscars presenting on March 12th, and then BOOM! March 26th..... all hell breaks loose lol 😅

Whew!

I definitely feel Marvel is going to recast him. That's just a given. They can't really do much with Loki 2 since they've apparently already filmed all of that lol.

But his other projects he had lined up?? Kang Dynasty? The Dennis Rodman biopic??? Oh yea...He's DONE!!!

I think there were SOME defenders of him when the news FIRST dropped. I think I saw some celebrity men defending him somewhere online. But you're right, there weren't too many people defending him at all. 👀

Maybe people have worked with him and have known him to be someone who has a bad attitude.... 🥴

[disdaidal]

I saw your answer and I really don't understand why so many people struggle to separate artist with their work. Do I think it is horrible what Kevin Spacey, Bill Cosbey and so many more people did? Hell yes but I still love movies or shows like the Bill Cosby show because I grew up with or I really enjoy the movie Baby Driver and so I forget what Spacey did. But beware of you say it.

I don't know. I think maybe people have become a bit too obsessed with celebrities and "morality" these days (plus all this social media kind of makes everything way too easy and way too accessible, so).

I also enjoyed the Cosby show as a kid and I too was shocked to learn about the horrors he did to those women. Same thing about Kevin Spacey, and a few other celebrities who have done and said disgusting things.

But unfortunately, sometimes the good stuff comes out of the bad stuff, too. Like fiction. 🤷‍♀️ I don't condone the actions of those people but I can still enjoy good fiction. And I'd like to be able to enjoy it as long as I can, even if the artist is/was bad. Maybe that's selfish of me but I only get this one life and I'd like to at least try my best to enjoy some of it, without constantly worrying that my choices may have hurt some people sometime in the past... or maybe even present, who knows. Maybe I'll go to Hell for these choices, or maybe I don't. Only time will tell. 🤷‍♀️

Bradley GT

Yeah he helped with it a lot he helped me design it and I knew what I was talking about but he helped me design it to be a kit it came out much better than the first one and Diana was helping too she was princess and she's the one who's buried at dispenser rounds she is my sister. We went ahead and made a few design changes to hers and added things and she said terrific 1 thing that he wanted to have was to tire fill the wheel well and it looks like it's pretty good it looks better than the 1st one it's not zero clearance but they couldn't get away with it they said it was too hard and there's too many different tires and back and back then the tires were not that cheap. And you couldn't get a size that fits it that you can get everywhere. But this was a nice look it's like a determine so tire and rim and it looks pretty hot now there's a few things you do you take the aluminum off and you flared a little wider tires things like that but really this is gonna be a wide body and all sorts of things you can do to it and people are already getting it ready and I'm gonna get mine ready. This one here is a girl who heard about the contest you can see their stuff in the video.

Hera

I do see it but it could have been a year ago so we're checking and I'll tell you what this is gonna be preposterously strange a lot of people their eyes are bugging out I do know what they're saying this is it you're going to see your master and what they do. And I love it.

We heard this crap from him for a long time singing we think he's working with them we're manipulated and he says no it's by power and they're blaming him. And we're gonna see it he says we'll get wiped out like Trump has been. And Oh God this is hell. These cars to drive around in right now. Have this contestbja

We will manufacture them we want to get that going it's one of our goals. His idea and hers and we're going to go ahead with it now you'll see whose car it is and whose design and basically they took the one from the amusement ride and changed it a little and Dave was tickle pink he said this is the greatest idea I've ever seen. So what we're all very impressed with how far this one win it went all the way to number one and it was the analogy in the name this is gonna be a heck of a time.

Thor Freya

I'm really induced it's got my name i'm gonna have a lot of fun this is gonna be tough but boy what a time what a day this is awesome I appreciate my friends interesting me and have me do it. And he said Brad stood he'd good and I don't know if that's the future this is so weird I don't think we've touched that car in 30 years. Be awesome I know how to do this it's a simple method it's gonna be easy we've been doing it for 20 years the Y body stuff. And really there's some techniques we have you know what this is probably the best idea I've heard of in ages and we can reinforce it just for the being the prototype so it doesn't fall apart but we're going to have a race there's a racetrack out there and everybody's interested.

brad

You can count me in i'm gonna get my car. I got one yeah. Kids car. Story we knew it was from the kid we knew it and we knew about the visit to Disneyland and we watched him roar and laugh at Bill Cosby who's his grandpa. I was the most wonderful thing ever. And yeah okay and the white guy coming out down to the junkyard taking the stuff that's probably good right there. And I said Albert is coming to ask me what I'm doing so I'm telling him it's my stuff it says we're sorry I miss you this is where we come to relax and blow off steam from school. It sounded like. But they taught him very well we're gonna start this contest we're gonna open it up we're gonna get the prizes for people and we mean the big ones the rich ones they said it's gonna be them but usually they don't do it. In this case they want to make a deal and provide some of it so I'm going to go ahead with it because it entices me.

rd

Actually we like what that sounds like we might have another one for a saline but really designed for Chevy and people will come out from everywhere. And you know what these guys might win and they can manufacture it out there and he wants the guys to start and they said we have one and so it's on i'm gonna put it out there. Is a design competition and it's for a whole bunch of parameters price is a key factor too. We're gonna provide some things for the contest as prizes it's gonna be a pot this is getting better and he says richer and that's good. What if I win it. Well it goes to your people says no it'll go into storage so we're laughing and saying then you get the contract to build it and that's actually kind of funny and you can win your own contract. Now I've got to tell you something this is going to be enticement right now he's saying what if I win because usually he wins he's only one of few but he he can win and he knows how and he had Sherry win and beat all of us and that was embarrassing.

If Val act like this. How the FUCK did Angel Dust fall for him especially since Angel was in hell 30+ years before him. Oh wait Viv will say Angel/Victims are dumb because they can't pick on on signs. You know how Bill Cosby for decades people saw this family man comical until the truth came out. Oh FUCK. We're going to get flashback episode of Val romance Angel and the dumbass Val fan will love it.

Again I would be more convinced Angel was the one who became an overlord first and not Val. He really would have the skills if he got interested in politics. Also I kind of think Angel should have actually known who Al was instead of just go the lazy not big in politics. It would be interesting to see him say that Val had talked about Al. And again guy could show he let's more on than he knows.

HEY THERE PEOPLE OF TODAY AND ROBOTS OF TOMORROW! IT IS I, SANTA CLARK! Chestnuts are roasting on an open fire. Jack Frost is nipping at your nose. Mom and dad can hardly wait for school to start again. All the dogs in the neighborhood somehow learned to bark Jingle Bells in sync. Yet retail workers are still more annoyed with Mariah Carey. Snow is getting shoveled, tossed, and formed into sentient beings leading parades without permits. It makes for an excellent distraction as the Krampus abducts children for bad behavior. Fruitcake is exchanged only to find its permanent home in the garbage. Terrorists have hijacked the Holiday office party right before your boss can give you a Jelly of the Month Club membership as your bonus. And of course, the Turducken has returned to wreak its fiery vengeance upon an unsuspecting world! If all this doesn’t put you in the Christmas spirit, perhaps this festive slice of cheer from the Clarktoons will!

Let's make like The Ghost of Christmas Past and rewind back to 2014. Folks were suffering from Frozen Fever, both as a result of the movie and the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. That year also saw Jimmy Fallon take over The Tonight Show after Leno stepped away for real this time, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 swung low while the Guardians of the Galaxy aimed high, people still cared about Kanye and Kim's relationship as if either people are worth your attention, Bill Cosby was outed as the horrible monster that he is, and most importantly of all, I initiated the 12 Days of Christmas event. Yes, clearly that's as major a moment as those other things I mentioned. Starting December 14th I would post a new pic or comic everyday leading up 'til Christmas. Our first year saw the Pizza Bites writing their oddball letters to Santa (with help from Mr-Herp-Derp), Crocie visualizing his perfect yuletide, and even a full length action comic starring me as a seasonal superhero. And in case anybody asks: no, the Holiday Knight isn't coming back. Sadly, neither will the 12 Days at this rate. Despite my continued best efforts, this festive event hasn't been able to return ever since 2020. Blame that on the last four months of every year becoming an increasingly busy time for. Should the choice arise, I will always pick spending the season with my family over drawing. Weird to hear, I know. Still, that's not to say I haven't been hard at work. You can tell I have considering this giant page of sketches I found lingering in Clarktoon Christmas limbo. Thus we have Dumpster DUDELZ: Regifted Edition! Let's take a peak to what's waiting under the tree?

[1] KARL THE KRAMPUS People credit that crummy 2015 horror movie for introducing Krampus into the popular culture. To that I say; you're all wrong! Clearly I did that a year earlier with my own character, Karl. Being a Clarktoon take on a German folk monster, naturally he became a big, bumbling goofball envisioned to have the voice of Richard Kind. It also meant he encountered Croc's Swamp Gang the most, Xena and Bumper especially. After years of the two (or at least Xena) tormenting the fluffy demon, it was time for a facelift. Honestly this design is a drastic upgrade over the original, making Karl more monstrous while not losing his approachability. Cuz only in the Clarktooniverse will you meet a cuddly monster who drags naughty children of to hell. XD

[2] NUTCRACKER: REB00TED CAST Nutcracker freak'n sucks! I have made my opinions regarding this boring ballet no secret over the years. For crying out loud, I compared going to see it to the Five Stages of Death. Nothing against anybody who does enjoy it, just don't count me among your masses. Getting me to like adaptations lacking Mickey and Minnie is a challenge. Then again, I enjoy a good challenge. While contemplating what I would do with the story one year, an ad for Matrix: Resurrections dropped onto YouTube. After seeing it I thought: what if the world of Nutcracker was set within the Matrix? Hence we have Nutracker: REB00TED! I plan to diverge more plot details later, but for now you can at least meet our cast. Starting from left to right we have Prince Leon, the Nutcracker Prince who's grasp on reality is slipping. Helping to guide him is the Count Drosselmyer, turned into Love-A-Lot Larry Beary. Don't let his cuddly facade fool you, he will whoop yo' @$$! Alongside his niece Clara, the badass ballerina determined to rescue her beloved and free the kingdom from the evil Rat King! What does the king look like? Good things come to those who wait...

[3] ROSIE MEETS THE HOGFATHER Any excuse to draw Rosie Stardust is an awesome one! Even if the sketch is last minute like this one. During the Holiday season last year this random little idea sprung into mind of Rosie exploring Christmas contemporaries across the multiverse. This would include Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Festivus, Hearth's Warming Eve, Life Day, and of course Hogswatch. Anyone familiar to the works of Terry Pratchett will recognize the name. Just like those esteemed few will also recognize the mini-Claus counterpart the Cosmic Cutie's encountered. It's not the Hogfather she was expecting, but she will gladly take it!

[4] WILBUR'S PLASTIC TREE You'd think a collection of coupons would be the easiest to complete. Just like you'd think the monkeys would stop flying out of my butt at some point. Nope, that ain't happening. Blame it on my nitpicky attention to details, otherwise Wilbur's White Elephants coupons are already a third of the way done. In fact, the sketch here is already fully colored just waiting to be posted. Being the cheap sonuv'a bush he is, Wilbur naturally won't go for a natural Christmas tree, instead opting for plastic. No, the other kind of plastic. The kind that'll guarantee some poor tree manufacturer in Hoboken will get an angry phone call from an irate store manager. And in case you're wondering what he sounds like, my ideal voice actor is Daran Norris doing his Jameson voice from Spectacular Spider-Man!

[5-7] REDESIGNS FOR RANDOLF, CUPID, AND ZED My, here's a jolly trio that haven't been seen in a good while. Probably because I keep wanting to give them better designs! This is an itch I can't ever seem to scratch! Since I've listed all three of them together, let's go over each character:

RANDOLF: The cocky but caring step-brother of a certain red-nosed reindeer, Randolf hosts the famous North Pole 1 radio show alongside his bear buddy Zed whenever not hosting the even more famous Reindeer Games. Out of all the characters, Randolf is the one who's design if the toughest to crack. I want him to look young, but not super young. Think early to mid 30s if you will. It'd probably help if I could pin down a potential voice for him. Sam Rockwell is the top contender in my mind.

CUPID: Following some messy drama between princessofDisney27 of Disney and I, the original version of Cupid was thrown out and reworked from the top down. With an extreme hairstyle I 'borrowed' from MLP and an athlete's need for speed, Cupid lives up to her namesake who first pulled Santa's sleigh years ago. No idea on who would voice her if I could afford it.

ZED: Raised by gay penguins on a diet of Polar Cola and smooth jazz, Zed is a laid back bear with a beach comber's attitude.  So long as wherever he is has a heater and is populated by his buddies, Zed will go with wherever the flow will take him. His design is the easiest, being a polar bear in a Hawaiian shirt. One of these days I wanna draw him with his two penguin papas too, but for now we at least have the bear. Again, not sure who I'd have voice him.

[8] BUMPER'S A STAR! A sad truth about my Christmas tree is that I can never put a star on top of it. Everything we've tried is too top heavy. For the longest time I meant to make one featuring everybody's favorite floating marshmallow, finally following through on this desire this year. I made a shape template in Illustrator, drew the front and back of Bumper around it, colored it all in Illustrator, printed both sides out and glued them together. I would've just printed both sides on one sheet of paper, but printers are evil devices meant to torture mankind as a whole. I hate them! But I love this tree topper! ^^

[9] PANICKED TURKEY It's a shame Panicked Turkey didn't get to come out of hibernation this year. Especially when I had some good ideas for tips involving Canon Events, certain cartoon rodents, time traveling, dragons, and Rosie. Chances are I'll be able to use these ideas again in the future, but for now I just wanted to post something with the cowardly bird. So here's the sketch detailing his redesign from last year. Like Karl, this is another change I really like, PT feeling more expressive than he previously was. Hopefully we'll get to see this design in action again next year!

[10] I'll Have a BOO Christmas Without You ...I'm not even sorry! XD

[11] ALIENS OF THE ROCKAPOCALYPSE! Hey look, more characters you haven't seen in forever! This is Phil, the Clarktooniverse's resident one-eyed rockstar from outer space. Back in the day I used to do mock album covers for Christmas, Phil's girlfriend Yezzi standing in for Mariah Carey on one particularly great one that still holds up. Sadly there's only so many iconic Holiday CD covers you can do that aren't just the same generic 'things coming out of a box' design. Heck, it's why the last one of these I did was based on a Manowar album. That following year would've seen an all-new, totally original creation depicting Phil and Yezzi rocking around a dried out Christmas tree in a Nuclear Winter Wonderland. Sadly the full sketch was never realized, save for Phil's rocker gear here. Worse still, these characters have been retired until I can iron out the finer details of their story. Once I do, expect the ultimate comeback tour from the Aliens of the Rock! Just in time for the yuletide / end of the world!

[12] PANICKED WHO? What turkey? I don't see any turkey. All I see is this friendly induvial with a mustache! One who was just drawn randomly with no other intent behind it. Totally. XD

[13] KREEPY KRAMPUS Once upon a time I was able to complete entire comic storylines before Christmas. That couldn't be said for this one comic where Bumper and Xena both try to buy each other Christmas gifts, each of them going after different notable Christmas creatures to pay for them. Bumper would've gone after the wild Nog while Xena would've picked a more frightful foe: the Krampus! This image of the German monster is what she'd find while searching for information online, my intent to be truer to the original folklore than my usual interpretation. It would've made Karl's inevitable appearance that much funnier. Part of me still wants to see this comic fully realized someday. Until then; let this haunt your nightmares!

[14] ANGELICIA, THE SPIRIT OF THE SEASON Remember earlier when I mentioned a comic centered around me as a Holiday hero? The one I will never bring back? Part of that idea involved a literal spirit of the season named Angelicia, an adopted sister of sorts to Finjix's own character Aklamos. Both of us have tweaked and upgraded her overall appearance over the years, this being her last for an intended Sketch BOOM that was scrapped. I really should use this character again, the question is for what?

[15] A TURKEY DINNER TO GO! Like I said, there was once a Holiday Sketch BOOM that was never completed. This Panicked Turkey sketch is one of the few things to survive from it. Ignoring how this design was pre-2022 makeover, I still think this silly little pic is hilarious! Next Thanksgiving I'll make sure to remake this in full color!

[16] THE NOG Along with Karl, the Nog has become a seasonal staple of the Clarktooniverse. For years mankind has wondered where the eggs for Eggnog have come from. Some silly saps think they come out of chickens, but we all know that's a lie! Obviously the eggs come courtesy of the wild, North American Nog! These rambunctious creatures hail in the colder climates, sticking primarily to the North States where they graze on wild berries, tree bark, and rare flowers. Whenever it's not foraging for food it's fending off wild predators, displaying its tusks for potential mates, running for Congress, or raising their young. That is, the young that actually get to hatch. Good luck drinking that next ice-cold cup knowing the Nog is 100% real and you're feasting on what could've been one of its young you sick monster!

[17-18] TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLE DOVES Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Doves! Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Doves! Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Doves! Heroes for the Holidays! BIRDY POWER! Back in 2019 I made a silly little parody of the Ninja Turtles based on the beloved Christmas carol "The 12 Days of Christmas". Was it an extremally obvious joke to make? Yes. Does my earlier pun prove I will stoop to such lows? Heck yes! Thus these two goofy characters were born and eventually given the names Currier and Ives by AnimatedTigerGirl. Currier is the one with the bo staff on the left. At home he's a easy-going party animal, but in the field he's a dedicated leader fighting to keep his family safe. Next to him is the nunchuck-wielding Ives, a hot-tempered brainiac with a big heart. Together the two must save their mother, face the 10 Evils of Christmas, and help out their new human friend Ash.

Standing in for their April O'Neal is Ash, one of their few human friends who helps her fine-feathered friends move about New York. Since this story is set during the 90s, she's naturally a skate-boarding tomboy ready to prove to her dad that she's more capable than given credit for. That chance comes suddenly when her father is abducted by the Partridge Crime Family and their ten specifically themed assassins. Now Ash must rescue her dad alongside these two magically enhanced bird-themed ninjas. Y'know, that old chestnut!

[19] SHORT-E AND SHER-I Dang, it's been a while since these two were seen either. I'm sensing a pattern here. At leas these designs have held up the best. Heck, they look especially good in their winter ensemble. SHORT-E wears basic gloves and a jamaica while SHER-I went shopping with EMIL-E to get fancier gloves and a beret! SLAY, QUEEN!

[20] SNOW CONIE MEETS THE NOG Yes, another refuge from the scrapped Sketch BOOM. This one featuring the unofficial mascot of the Sketch BOOMs, the Snow Conies! Or at least one, facing down the angry snout of a mother Nog. I envision these creatures having the temperament of wild hogs, much to the misfortune of this innocent sentient dessert!

[21] SIR PANICKED TURKEY, THE CANADIAN! Along with redesigning this cowardly bird, I also made a special bonus Panicked Turkey tip for Canadian Thanksgiving. It was very last second, going through a few iterations before settling on the final idea. Before then the plan was to either have PT surrounded by angry canucks with guns in a style similar to the John Wick posters or the giant chicken disguising himself as a Mounty, not yet realizing he'll find no peace in the Great White North. Ultimately both were dropped in favor or one menacing Mounty looming over the frightened fowl, which I thought wouldn't work until I saw the final product. Funny how that works, innit? Still, what about the entre in shining armor? That has to do with an idea I mentioned earlier, but I dare not spoil the surprise further than that. Like I mentioned, said idea can be reused for next year. So when Turkey Day rears its ugly head, Sir Turkey turned tail and fled!

[22] UGLY SWEATERS, TROPICAL WEATHER Yet again another idea I hope to bring back, though slightly modified. Originally the plan was to make Ugly Sweater pin-ups for the couples (or friends) of 3K with my friends Finjix and @burningthrucelluloid. This one was the only one sketched before Alec lost his Adobe art programs that would've allowed him to help in this project. Even then, my nitpicky attention to details got the better of me again and too much time was wasted attempting to draw the other pics. All we got out of this failed collaboration were Nerva and her buddy Weed Eater in their Hawaiian-style sweaters, the latter not happy about his situation. He was even depicted eating the sweater and partridge at one point. Who would've guessed the living Christmas tree would be a humbug?

[23-24] CROCZILLA VS TURDUCKEN When I released by Terror of the Turducken posters back in 2020, peeps said they would totally pay to see that movie. Hopefully the same can be said for its sequel, an epic clash between the titular Turducken and the colossal Croczilla! Why are they fighting? Who cares, it's two giant monsters beating the stuffing out'a each other! No doubt the posted to go with this creature feature would've been a legendary one! At least had it not been for my nitpicky attention to details. Plenty of poster designs were drawn up, including this one that was inspired by the then-current Godzillva vs Kong posters. Perhaps I can recycle this idea next year when the sequel comes out and the two fight another giant monkey. Until then, feel free to place your bets on which of these festive Kaijus come out on top!

And if you're rooting for the Turducken, enjoy this redesign of the character where each of its heads feel more distinct. Hey, if nothing else it's cooler to look at than another freak'n ape.

MAY THE GLASSES BE WITH YOU!
