💗🐴✨🪩Pink Pony Club!🪩✨🐴💗
Last night I had an amazing bestie night with my dear @fancylatte at @superficialparty ‘s Pink Pony Club Pop Party!
I’m used to going to clubs in a group and while that was the initial intent, we ended up losing everyone we came with and just danced the night away together 🤭🤭
I love this girl so much, Vikki is my best friend in this entire world and I needed a night like this more than anything!

2.) Factory and! Lion
I did two prompts this time, I wanted to practice drawing scenery and adding a lion was an easy way for me to add interest for me.
I definitely want to at least add black ink shading on this at some point to add depth and make it easier to understand. I'm pretty happy with this as an idea though for a larger piece. (I couldn't get the eyes right tho whoops)
2024 @artchallengegame ! Go check it out and join (at any point, you will be welcomed!) :O one drawing you create is better than no drawings!

Ooooh ok wait, can you rank the teams in order of how much they bore/compel you this season? Or is it just a big bucket of boring and like 1-2 mildly compelling teams? 😭
Idk if I can rank them per se but here's how they're compelling or aren't :
MCLAREN : wasted potential
Grow a dick. I'm begging.
REDBULL (and vcarb) : villain making machine
Went from top of the world to fighting for scraps. All their drivers are part of an elaborate psychological experiment to see how much you can fuck with one's mind and it has NOT been approved by the ethical committee. Are you employed or not? Only for the next 10 minutes. We'll see if we keep you for another 10 minutes after that. Oh actually you got a promotion. Yeah. The new job is seeing how long you can survive in a 3m³ cage with a starved lion. Oh btw it's a talking lion. Only knows swear words though.
MERCEDES : saved by its drivers (just like their on track performance)
Is Lewis washed? Is Lewis tortured? Is Lewis getting kicked out screaming and clawing or does he wish he could say what he really thinks but the NDA runs for 75 more years? Is George the new n1 or is he getting sideline by the barely legal twink? Can they figure out where to put the wheels on their cars? Did the entire strategy department get burnout? Is Toto about to lose it and kill Allison in a murder-suicide after setting the paddock on fire? How did their fans become the Qanons of F1?
FERRARI : will be next year
Yeah yeah you have the most pathetic blorbo. We've seen him. We get it. Yawns. What else?
ALPINE : for 5 minutes at the start and for 5 minutes at the end
Failing so catastrophically that 5 senior dudes quit and an entire factory closes is an art only the French can master. And then you go from your own grave to a double podium? Just slap a dreamworks logo on it already.
ASTON MARTIN : McLaren's antithesis
It's like these movie trailers that get you superhyped and once you've paid for your overpriced theatre seat you realise that all the good things were in this 2-minute video and there's nothing else to see. Stroll senior walks around like he has the biggest dick in the paddock but I've yet to see it.
HAAS : haasbands? more like haas-beens
Gene needs to act like Stroll and invest in that dick lengthening surgery with actual cash instead of stuffing his pants with socks. And no you will not convince me that the drivers are interesting. Never were for the 35 years that they were in F1, still aren't.
WILLIAMS : saved by their team 🤢 principal 🤢🤢 ?
I want to like Williams, they have all the cool haas lacks, but Vowles is simultaneously the only thing happening there and extremely offputting. The best thing they have going for themselves right now is a driver who will be gone in 3 minutes.
KICK SAUBER : who?
Now I get why they made their car highlighter green. We would all forget that they exist if they didn't burn our retinas every GP.

2D Purists, Cut It Out
Once again, I'm seeing people get all ornery over the latest look at WISH, the new feature from Walt Disney Animation Studios that marries their post-TANGLED house style and aesthetic to a more watercolor-based look. Once again, people are grousing that it doesn't look as good as the 2012 short PAPERMAN, and others are grousing that it just isn't 2D, period. I feel like the artists and film crew behind WISH are getting a lot of flack, especially on the heels of the recent Writer's Strike coming to an end. Not a good look, if you ask me.
I've gone over it many times before, I'm farggin' exhausted. Walt Disney Animation Studios, as they stand, are likely lucky to even be making films, let alone make it to 100 years of existence. It's the bedrock of the entire company: No Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio, no Walt Disney Company. It seems as if it's alive by virtue of that alone... They were on the chopping block multiple times in the post-Walt span of 67 years, as recent as 2006, believe it or not! Each movie has to do well in some way in order to justify to the heads that they're a building worth investing hundreds of millions of $$$ into. When reliable hitmaker Pixar is right next door, too. Remember, Disney purged a long list of animation studios/partners: Blue Sky Studios, Disneytoon Studios, several arms of the animation studio, Skellington Productions, etc. etc. So, I'm just going to take what I can get. I'm sure I'll find something of merit, both visually and storytelling-wise, in WISH. The recent trailer, I thought, was a bit of alright. Nothing too fancy to me, but it looks like it'll be a fun time nonetheless. I haven't been wowed upside-and-down by a WDAS feature in ages, but that's a me thing. WDAS is doing THEIR thing, and I guess it's not entirely for me. That's OK! Clearly it's working on someone else... Note ENCANTO, RAYA, and even STRANGE WORLD's sheer success as streaming titles, ditto slightly older movies like the FROZENs and MOANA.
But I think some people should understand that in animation, on one half of the playing field, it's not about the art unfortunately. It's called the animation INDUSTRY for a reason.
I get it. We miss the halcyon days of Disney making a new, gorgeous, splendorifously animated feature using pencil and paper, and post-1989, a lot of digital aid. I get that. I'm a 1992 baby, that era was my era, my jam. THE LION KING alone is one of my **formative** films. It's why I write stories and make comics and would LOOOOVE to turn them into animated movies. I was a preteen during the BROTHER BEAR/HOME ON THE RANGE days when it was all fading away, and I watched - as a late teen/young adult - the studio try to make it a thing again, only to blow it.
It's because it was never about the method, the technique, or anything.
To the artists and filmmakers, it absolutely was! No denying that.
To the bean counters? NO. It's product to them, builds the bottom line, fills the pockets, etc.
That's how it's been in the post-Walt age, post-Golden Age, whatever. Steve Hulett, who worked at Disney Animation circa 1976-86, summed it up once: "These are studios. Not Renaissance art factories."
It makes me think of how a lot of classical art was commissioned by merchants, it was largely glorified fanart of Biblical scenes, but the artists who made those works put their ALL into them. Much in the same way the filmmakers put their all into [name any Disney/big studio 2D animated movie made from 1990 to 2004].
In order words, they more than understood the assignment, no matter how flawed the picture might've been on a writing level. (Like say, POCAHONTAS, an utterly gorgeous movie that the filmmakers clearly went HARD during its production.)
There are so many 2D movies made around the world or independently. I recently saw Disney and Pixar veteran Jim Capobianco's THE INVENTOR, a half Rankin/Bass-style stop-motion half European-like 2D film, in a theater! All by myself, may I add. 10 years in the making, a personal labor of love of his own.
Are these complainers *ever* there for those types of films? I thought so.
Where am I going with this? Ah yeah, that's a big reason why 2D was shuffled out of the question by executives. CGI was huge in the early 2000s, and it seemed that even the least-liked features (note SHARK TALE and CHICKEN LITTLE's critical reception) could outgross or out-success the most beloved 2D features of that period. Both of those movies outgrossed LILO & STITCH, for context...
Now, couple that with CGI being less of a hassle in certain ways. Suppose a big change is made to a movie well into production, and scenes have already been animated. Shaded and lit, even. Well, the sets and character models are still there, so the worst they have to do is shoot a scene from a different angle and reanimate their digital puppets. In 2D? New background to draw and paint, gotta redraw and reanimate the characters AGAIN and keep them ON MODEL- ahhhhh! You can see why CG is preferred in this instance. Perfect for a pipeline of movies that can't be disrupted.
So to bean counters and execs, it was only about getting movies made and them making money. In the early 1990s, CG wasn't at a place where it could sustain a feature-length film, so big-time animated movies were done in 2D almost exclusively. And it just so happens... The animators at studios like Disney, like DreamWorks, like Fox Animation, like Kroyer Films, like Warner Animation, etc... The makers of all your faves from HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME to THE IRON GIANT to THE ROAD TO EL DORADO to ATLANTIS, etc. The filmmakers got the assignment. That assignment being "Make big family film that's sure to be big franchise and McDonald's Happy Meal hit". They took that assignment, and WENT HARD. They didn't have to, but they did anyways. They gave us the coolest damn 2D animation we could've asked for, no matter the writing or the finished movie and how it would fare with critics/audiences. And even the writing, it's like, they did what they felt was right - even if it didn't register for critics nor get audiences interested.
So, again, it was all assignments, and 2D was pretty much the only method they could use. Stop-motion was reserved for the likes of NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS and CHICKEN RUN, more off-beat projects. There was never a stop-mo wave. LAIKA literally runs off of commercials and shoe money, the exploits of a nepo baby. So, it was mainly 2D til TOY STORY came along. TOY STORY came out in fall 1995, and once you started seeing films like ANTZ, A BUG'S LIFE, TOY STORY 2, SHREK, etc. That was it. And these developments coincided with audiences choosing the 2D animated movies they wanted to see, and avoiding the rest... And also them getting so wowed by CGI, while seeing 2D as same-old same-old. Capitalism then cemented 2D features' fate, unless it's based on a TV show, like SPONGEBOB or MY LITTLE PONY. It didn't matter that the CGI wow factor was a fad, and that by the end of the 2000s, audiences didn't flock to see *every* CG movie on the block. CGI was the way, and that was that about that. Because it's about getting the thing made and released without the special challenges a 2D movie presents.
Only FIXED is the anomaly right now, which Sony Animation was willing to take a chance on. It is still unknown if it hits theaters or streaming. If it's the former, this is... I think the first 2D animated **theatrical** movie from a mainstream animation studio that's *not* based on a TV show in ages. Like, since... What? WINNIE THE POOH? (Which is based more on the classic Disney shorts/feature than any of the TV show iterations of the character.) THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG?
You can never guess what audiences will flock to see. If you randomly threw a solid 2D feature out in, say, 2027... It could be big, it could flop hard. But the studios, the industry, they're unwilling to chance that. Thus they aren't, and will not. Quality doesn't matter, because you could throw a **great** 2D movie out, and it could still flop just because... If FIXED does well, I don't know what it means. Could move a needle, maybe not. I kinda don't care, because capitalism is an unmovable object. I don't have a crystal ball, and I can't say for sure what could happen. I guess you could say I'm "Will 2D Come Back" Agnostic. I don't deny it, but I don't think it'll for sure happen. I DO NOT KNOW, haha.
The mass refusal to make 2D animated features in mainstream theatrical feature animation (not streaming, mind you, as we did get KLAUS, WOLFWALKERS, and MY FATHER'S DRAGON from some of the high-end services) was so firm, so absolute, that the idea of traditional animation might as well been tax write-off'ed and Men In Black-erased from our minds. That's how FIRM these companies were in getting rid of it, that's how FIRM they are in NOT wanting to utilize it for a feature film.
So instead, we get stylized CG films like the SPIDER-VERSEs and PUSS IN BOOTS 2 and MITCHELLS VS. THE MACHINES and NIMONA and such. We get maybe a brief 2D scene in a larger CG movie, or some small 2D elements. That mix has got the advantages and the 3D immersiveness of CGI, mixed with that special sauce people love about 2D... And even then, for some people, it just isn't enough. Some will insult the artists and their work, which is not cool. But I'm sorry, either take what you can get or continue to be unsatisfied... Or, seek out 2D stuff that's regularly being made. That's just not by studios as big as Disney and DreamWorks, and not being made in America at that. Broaden your horizons, they're EVERYWHERE.
Anyways, had to vent. Sorry. WISH looks cool, will be seeing.

Unshakable Faith (2023)
Episode 17 Breakdown
He Xiwan is threatened by Lai Guangrun, and a woman comes into the barn to offer her some food but she refuses to speak to either of them. The woman leaves the barn, telling Lai Guangrun that kidnapping a high profile expert is reckless and he gives the order and the electrician Liu Simao boards up the door to the barn.
The lion clock leads the police team to the story of an old prestigious local family, whose farms are now abandoned. Shortly after this they get another call from Zhou Jun arranging an exchange at the river on the opposite side of the region. Knowing it's a diversion but stalling for time, Police Captain Chen and Officer Tongbin go to the river and find only a note stating to give up the Water Drop project or more experts will die. Officer Hongmei and Officer Ding reach the abandoned farm and find the boarded up shed, breaking their way in when they hear He Xiwan calling for help.
The art exhibition is held and Officer Jiang interviews several of the attendees about Zhou Jun and his style is recognised by one professor, bringing their list of suspects down to one teacher.
Officer Hongmei and Nurse Bai take Ji Danyang in his wheelchair to see the progress at the construction site and he is greeted by Master Welder Niu and many of the other tradesmen. In his excitement about the work Ji Danyang even gets out of his chair and Officer Hongmei teases him about being on his feet.
Ji Danyang is allowed back to his dorm and settles right into the problem of the pool construction, explaining how the concrete needs to be poured all in one process to have adequate pressure stability for their future testing.
The night before the pool construction, Officer Hongmei is tasked with searching Security Captain Li's room while he is on a job, but he's suspicious and comes home early while she's still there. Avoiding being found, Officer Hongmei completes her search and finds the letters and photos of Security Captain Li's sweetheart - who turns out to be the same woman who tried to intercept Ji Danyang in Hong Kong. The Police team are now certain that Security Captain Li was behind several sabotage attempts in the past but he must also have an accomplice that is still unidentified.
Officer Hongmei tracks Security Captain Li to a meeting with a messenger and watches them exchange bags. Her team arrests the messenger and she follows Security Captain Li through the evening market crowd, but he evades her by cutting a power line and escapes in the dark.
.......................................
Good for He Xiwan to use her teeth and not trust anyone until Hongmei arrived! I was thinking that they gave up rather quickly about trying to get He Xiwan to talk, but clearly this was a diversion so that they could try and sneak their way into the construction site. These KMT spies are really good at layering their diversion tactics, keeping our good guys on their toes.
It's great to see our math man healthy and happy again and it seems like he's got a lot of friends not just with the women at the factory but the construction crew as well. And he's back to giving Hongmei grief - she has to physically restrain him when he decides to try and run. Dorks.
As Hongmei was following Security Captain Li through the crowd I was seriously expecting someone to suddenly stab or shoot him, and the bag he'd been given to have junk paper instead of the money and passports he was wanting. The KMT have already said to Dr Bai that you can't walk away from your actions, and I'd doubt they'd want Security Captain Li out of their grasp when he can identify Lai Guangrun as Lizard and the plans for the pool sabotage. I imagine he's probably scared of that too, but we'll have to wait and see if he survives long enough to be caught and confess.
It's really interesting how some of the spies are really sympathetically written and some are very black and white villainous, Dr Bai and Security Captain Li being the former and Zhang A Shui and Lai Guangrun being the latter. The sympathy for Dr Bai was developed before the reveal of his past and him being roped back into the spy game in the present, whereas Security Captain Li's treachery reveal was early on and the sympathy has been developed the more we see him being coerced.
And I felt sympathy for Lai Guangrun and the electrician Liu Simao before their spy reveals but none after, and I wonder if the longer the time to know the characters before their reveal will mean a bigger feeling of betrayal for me as a viewer. I know that the influx of new workers likely means there will be a few new spies coming into the factory, but we also know that Snow Wolf is somewhere nearby and unrevealed, and logically will likely be a character we already know well.

WEDNESDAY 13 ANNOUNCES AUSTRALIAN TOUR FEBRUARY 2024: CELEBRATING 21 YEARS OF MURDERDOLLS:
WEDNESDAY 13 and his current band – which features former MURDERDOLLS alumni Roman Surman and Jack Tankersley – will be performing a full set of MURDERDOLLS songs, taken from the band’s celebrated 2002 debut album, ‘Beyond The Valley Of The Murderdolls’ and their triumphant 2010 return, ‘Women And Children Last.
Murderdolls’ frontman and songwriter, Wednesday 13, will resurrect his songs from the twisted depths of their dual album discography and unleash an unforgettable set when they descend on Australia, breathing fire into the raucous anthems that have defined an entire subculture.
“After 21 years since its release, and the recent sad and premature passing of Joey, it only feels right to go out and celebrate these songs. We made two amazing albums that I was very proud of, and unfortunately much of the world didn’t get a chance to hear the songs live. In 2018, we all got together at Joey’s house and discussed plans and possibilities for the future, but we both had other immediate plans, We will be performing tracks from both MURDERDOLLS albums on this upcoming tour and celebrating the legacy of the band.” – Wednesday 13

Pasiklaban 2024 is the week of energy, excitement, and camaraderie at the GFI-Campus! The intramural week unfolded with the captivating theme of '𝐏𝐚𝐠𝐬𝐢𝐤𝐥𝐚𝐛 𝐧𝐠 𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐬, 𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐧 𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐮𝐬𝐚𝐲 𝐚𝐭 𝐥𝐚𝐤𝐚𝐬'.
The opening ceremony kicked off with a burst of colors and excitement, as teams dressed up in their unique pag-siklab-inspired costumes. The Legendary Lions roared onto the field, showcasing our fierce spirit and enthusiasm. Throughout the week, we engaged in a variety of activities that showcased the talents and skills of our school community.
The stage came alive with solo and duet performances, as students showcased their singing abilities. The air was filled with melodies and applause as the performers captivated the audience with their talent and passion. Next is where dance crews took the stage, mesmerizing everyone with their impressive moves and synchronized routines. The energy was contagious, and the cheers echoed throughout the campus.
In addition to the performing arts, the intramural week also featured mind games that challenged participants' intellect and critical thinking. Students engaged in thrilling competitions, such as word factory, scrabble, quiz bowl, etc. showcasing their mental prowess. Of course, no intramural week is complete without ball games. Basketball, volleyball, sepak takraw and other sports took at gymnasium, as four different teams battled it out on the court, displaying their athleticism, teamwork, and sportsmanship.
As a member of the Legendary Lions, I had the opportunity to witness the incredible talent and dedication of my fellow students. From the soulful performances on the stage to the intense matches on the court, I was in awe of the passion and commitment displayed by each participant. We are very thankful and grateful for all of the teachers that keep supporting us.
And on the night of the highly anticipated pageant, the rain poured down, but it couldn't dampen the spirits and glamour of the participants. The stage was transformed into a dazzling showcase of beauty, grace, and talent. Contestants from different teams and backgrounds took part, exuding confidence and charisma as they walked the runway and showcased their unique talents, embracing the rain as part of the experience.
After that we celebrated our achievements as the Legendary Lions. Being overall second place in the intramural competition was a testament to our collective effort, skill, and dedication. It was a memorable week filled with unforgettable moments, personal growth, and lasting friendships. Intramurals week truly showcased the spirit and unity of our high school.
The intramural week encompassed a wide range of activities, highlighting the values of creativity, teamwork, sportsmanship, and intellectual growth. It was a celebration of the diverse talents and abilities within our school community.

Favourites
Soo~! I was tagged by @raichana-artblog so I'm gonna do this!
favourite colour: THIS IS SO HARD. I love so many colours. Like I'm a big fan of a lot of combos, too. Orange holds a special place in my heart, but so does turquoise, and certain shades of pink and purple!!
favourite flavour: I can't stop thinking about ginger. This is another situation where I have a LOT of faves, but I've been eating ginger candies, my family got crystalised ginger, we have gresh ginger in the fridge, etc etc etc. Pesto is another good flavour.
favourite music: Oh god. That I don't know how to answer. I have so many faves. I do listen to the local classical station pretty much 24/7 though so I can sleep at night.
favourite movie: Big Fish or Secondhand Lions. I'm also a fan of "A League of Their Own" or some title similar to that.
favourite series: Games: Rune Factory. Anime: Ascendance of a Bookworm or Natsume's book of friends Book: The Magic Circle and related books by Tamora Pierce.
last song: Not sure! The radio doesn't always tell me what song I'm listening to.
last movie: Into the Spiderverse, I think? WAIT NO. The pokemon movie with Zeraora, The Power of Us I think?
currently reading: Ascendance of a Bookworm p1b3, and several art books.
currently watching: Uhhhhhh. I'm sure there's something, I just can't remember. Unless randomizer nuzlockes count?
currently working on: Several pieces! Including a couples YCH!
I have no idea who to tag, so if you want to do it, consider yourself tagged!
