#how is the internet so big

[fauxfickle]

We now return to your monthly fruitless venture or the search for "The Great All-American Pizza Show!"

Last month wasn't really all too interesting, and neither was this one. It's not like nothing has happened, it just feels like I'm just hitting a bunch of dead ends.

Alright, let's start with the animated commercial. I'm not sure about other lost media searchers, but I like to see how other people have solved cases and try and apply that to my search. I think I was watching blameitonejorge and he was talking about a demo reel made by the people who made Barnyard that was discovered completely by chance on Ebay. So I figured that something made by Colossal Pictures must of made it's way somewhere. I went through a bunch of ebay listings and auction sites, but couldn't find so much as a cel being sold.

As for the Bob Wilkins ad, I looked through videos shot at the Psychotronix Film Festival, but couldn't find anything. I've considered contacting the person that's in charge of the festival, but I'm worried that they might get scared off or something. I guess it wouldn't hurt, I just need to word the email in a way to make it seem like I'm not just there for that commercial.

I'm still a little unsure if the "Westland ad theory" from a while back is true. On one hand, I contacted Retrontario to see if they had it. They never got back to me, soooo maybe it's not real? On the other hand, the pieces line up and it doesn't feel like a coincidence. I'll still keep most my searching around CA

Sorry if this post was a little boring, life y'know? Going to start working at a paper mill next week (which I learned on the tour are freaking HOT, like 90F), but I think I'll be able to squeeze in some research time :). Hopefully there's some more interesting things to go through next time. Until then, cya nitwits later!

Was thinking about how much of a normo I come across as irl, how I’ve felt a lil odd person out at their shows bc of being a bit older (29) and looking so aggressively normal, how generally confused people in my life would be if they knew about my d&p obsession, how thoroughly i mask weirder traits and essentially codeswitch to suit the mainstream, etc.

i feel kind of fish out of water when I imagine how all the people that populate my tumblr phandom ecosystem are likely presenting to the world irl (I.e. more visibly queer, counterculture, and so on). But then I think maybe the most visible phannies are the ones with the most curated, alt, deliberate daytoday lewks/style? So maybe what I’m picturing is off base? But then I’m also basing this off of what audiences look like in audience footage, m&gs, etc.

Sooooooo i would like to know… do you guys feel like you present as someone who may be Deeply Online and obsessed with two gay nerds from the internet? Or do you hide it and fly under the radar, masking as a total normy and living a double life?

(To clarify I don’t mean you’re like out and about wearing the fringes boob sweatshirt lol I more mean vibes and overall lewk yk?)

( hi just a quick heads up - im not really adding people to the vocaloid-official masterpost anymore. its gotten really overwhelming to keep up with so. if you’ve asked me to add you and I haven’t done it it’s not personal it’s just kind of become A Lot so im gonna stop doing it I think. the current masterlist will stay up though!

also sorry for no funny posts in a while. ive been really busy with school and also not really in a good headspace to be cooking up Funney Jokes. im still alive and cool just busy with other stuff )

Heeey ladies, how's it going? oh what's that, You wanna see my motorcycle? Oh of course

Pretty badass huh? Wait why are you walking away

[dailypokemoncrochet]

I've mentioned it here before but another reason I don't really like to post on Reddit anymore is because anything there gets cheaply made into a shitty article on Gamerant or whatever and that just irritates me. Hate that. Hate when people make the lowest effort articles that are just the reddit thread reposted. A bot could've done that. A bot probably did that. Who is benefitting from this. Gross.

i know im an overemotional, overreactive pathetic little wimp about my hyperfixation, and i dont even mean that derogatory, i think its both my best AND worst quality, im well aware of it, especially in moments when im already stressed i have a hard time to get my brain back into control, im so well aware of it that i HAVE been managing to learn how to deal with it actually which is why, instead of letting myself spiral any further, i went to bed to let my brain calm down

and it worked!

i still hate the live action zelda thing, i still think it WILL be bad, and it will still negatively affect how i feel about the franchise as a whole, i am not spiraling out of control about it though, which i think is a win in my book, some people hate that i say my opinion at all though, more on twitter than here so hey, im grateful to not be called pathetic to my face bc i said something someone might decry as too 'weird'

I bought a refurbished surface go 2 for school, and I drew this on its touchscreen in the meantime.

@ the mag7 fam, I realize I have no way of convincing you this is not a 'and then everyone clapped' fake post, but i LITERALLY MET MANUEL GARCIA RULFO this weekend at a TIFF party, and we LITERALLY SPOKE FOR LIKE 5 MINUTES

Takeaways:

he is really ridiculously handsome, excellent brown eyes, A+

really not as tall as he seems in character, and much slighter, i may have to revisit how 'looming' i've written him in fic lmao

(on that note it is biZARRE meeting someone whose character you've written fic about, that is the first time that has happened to me. i can only be grateful i haven't written too much with him, i'd have withered if it was ethan hawke or LBH lol)

he was extremely friendly! and as it transpired he lived in my hometown for about a year so we just chatted about that. he loves poutine and hates the winter, and he has my full agreement on both counts 👍

he also appears to be dating vincent d'onofrio's daughter which is sO cute, the mag7 fam lives on 🙌 (she is gorgeous btw. and I don't think this is like a 'scoop' or private info or anything lol, I asked if he had anything going on at tiff that day and he was very openly like 'no only next week, today I'm just supporting her!)

(also the context for All This is my gentleman friend is a journalist and i joined him at TIFF for the weekend and basically larped as a famous person all weekend lol good times. weekend was crazy but this part felt the most relevant to tumblr)

hey sending you another ask since i was apparently eaten in the womb (your inbox), i just made a new post relaying dybowski's abuses with updated info from former HSE students/IPL members I've been working with and they hope it gains traction, you can share it if you're interested (warning, it's a lot of text) thanks for all the support!!

you were indeed eaten in the womb of my inbox i was checking in emails to see if the asks had showed up and i was about to screenshot yours and reply like that when you sent this one ^ so. perfect timing. mr electric and so on

Can. Can we talk about how fucking damaging internet trauma is, and how nobody fucking talks about it?
