Unleashing the Power: Understanding UPS Batteries

UPS Batteries are essential components of uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, providing backup power during electrical outages or fluctuations. These batteries serve as a reliable source of energy, ensuring that critical devices and systems remain operational when mains power fails. Typically consisting of sealed lead-acid or lithium-ion cells, UPS Batteries come in various sizes and capacities to meet the specific needs of different UPS configurations. Regular maintenance and monitoring are crucial to ensure the optimal performance and longevity of UPS Batteries, including routine checks for capacity, voltage, and overall health. Many modern UPS units feature hot-swappable battery modules, allowing for seamless replacement without disrupting connected equipment. Investing in high-quality UPS Batteries is paramount for businesses and organizations seeking uninterrupted power supply to safeguard against potential downtime and data loss.

So I finally got around to replay Arkham Asylum and City and I just finished Arkham Knight (or as I have been calling it as I seethe in rage, Batmobile: Arkham Knight has Crashed). My thoughts are many and my feelings moreso and that will be coming out in random spurts so apologies for whatever comes in the foreseeable future.

ren and stimpy adult party cartoon ranked from worst to least worst imo

6. naked beach frenzy - already not very fond of the contents of the episode but knowing anything about john brings it all down for me

5. ren seeks help - mostly extremely boring to me but it did have that nice walking segment and that one frame i took a screenshot of

4. fire dogs 2 - just didnt care for it. laughed

3. onward and upward - a little gross at times but generally left a positive impression on me. laughed

2. stimpy's pregnant - would be my favorite if it werent for the poop twist tbh. i dont know what else to say about it

1. altruists - would be significantly improved if it was shaved down 10-15 minutes but like other than that it was just fine for me. actually I don't remember if I laughed watching this one.

I searched "Ren Seeks Help" on Tumblr and I stumbled across your APC posts. I just want to say, that they were quite fun to read. I also find this show really fascinating - my favorite thing to put in the background while drawing are Media Mementos' videos about this show. I admit, I'm too sensitive to gross-out to watch the show in its entirety, I only watched some clips and Ren Seeks Help.

A big part of the reason why I am interested in this show, is because I am interested in John Kricfalusi in general. He's just... a fascinating kind of person, you know? Whatever he makes is weird in a way you can't quite get anywhere else. And he is such a great artist, too. I read through his whole blog, and he really knows his stuff about animation. You can just feel how passionate he is, how it really is his whole life. He is well known for having ridiculously high standards, but you have to admit he knows what he wants and what he wants is quite tasteful, cool and stylish. Well, most of the time. That's the thing with John K, his taste is really weird and specific. Half beautiful moody art, half gross-out jokes.

To me, Ren Seeks Help is just... beautiful! The expressions are so specific and inventive, the colors are so moody (I especially like that sequence of Ren walking to get help). Though, from what I've seen, the other APC episodes aren't as pretty. Altruists, from what I've seen, has this weird thick lined style, that just isn't that appealing. You can't help but think - what if we took this skilled director and staff, but gave them some restrictions, to showcase all that artistry without the bad parts? But then I realized, that was just the original Ren and Stimpy haha.

Anyway, this show is super unique, because it's one man's (almost) unrestricted vision. It's so finely crafted, so much thought went into it, and yet it sucks. Like, you'll see a character do this beautiful, smooth, well drawn sequence, but they're doing something absolutely stupid.

Usually, but not always, writing and art tend to be similar in quality. If a show is made by people who don't care about the writing, then the animation is usually also not that great. And similarly, if there is enough care put into a show to make it beautiful, then there is often some passion behind the writing too. Of course, this is not a rule, but what I'm trying to say is, that it's rare to see a show like APC, that has such a high gap between artistic quality and actual content.

So yeah, that's about it. Thanks for posting about APC. I rarely see people talking about it, and when they do, they often just repeat the same points.

Cheers!

Holy shit, another person interested in Adult Party.

For a start: I do not blame you for not watching the thing in its entirety if you're repulsed by gross out, LOL. As I have said before, I gagged twice getting through it. It really tries to be the most vile thing you could possibly animate.

I do think John K is a fascinating case. I mean, what do I say about him that a thousand people haven't already? He's a groomer and overall abuser, especially to his workers, and he is pungently nasty and bigoted. He should never be allowed to be in any position of authority ever again and he certainly should not be worshiped in any way.

I absolutely do not want to downplay John K as a case of the industry propping up abusers. John K was only really fired from Nickelodeon because his constant fighting with the network and terrible direction was causing issues with getting episodes out, not because he treated his workers horrifically. And even then, it took until 2018 for the decades-old grooming accusations to come out for his public image to be soured. It was horrible and a significant marker of how broken Nickelodeon is systemically.

John K has been exposed for years at this point and, while he should've faced more real legal consequences for the shit he did, I feel confident saying that he will never be given another job in animation and his cultural influence has waned just about as much as it will. And there really is a lot of interesting stuff to talk about with how John K's life and opinions influenced his work (the constant recurring father problems, for instance, to the point where it's uncomfortable) and his work's subsequent cultural impact for the time, as well as how his abuse punctuated all of that.

Ren and Stimpy was a darling of the nineties, after all- and that makes it even more interesting to look at how John K's abuse of his staff, extremely poor ability to communicate what he wants, and refusal to just finish shit made him a nightmare to work with and caused so many issues with production that he was fired off his own show. The animation is really technically good and fascinating to analyze, and it culturally changed animation, but you know the nightmare behind the scenes it took to make just wasn't worth any amount of good art.

Adult Party Cartoon is a very unusual case of a show for many reasons, but one of the biggest ones is indeed the contrast between the obvious technical skill in the animation (despite me really not enjoying it aesthetically due to John K's obsession with making everything extremely ugly) and the actual content being... Like that. I do think I would be less interested in it as a show if it weren't so well-animated.

Sometimes the focus on animation quality actually tangibly worsens it. The horrifically slow pacing of the series is used to accentuate the skill in the animation of every scene, yet it also completely evaporates any comedic timing the jokes could have. Like, in Onward & Upward, there's a scene that lasts for about a minute that's really well-animated- and it's of Stimpy eating a guy's snot. You're aware that this scene required skill and talent to animate yet it's absolutely abominable and it just drags on.

I'll stop rambling, but basically: Yeah. Adult Party is really interesting yet largely culturally forgotten or dismissed, partially because I think people really don't... Want to remember it, LOL. John K is a vile person- fuck him- but he is also a fascinating case as a creator in multiple ways which makes his work interesting to talk about and look back on.
