"Hey Homer, what'd you do, get a haircut or somethin'?"
"LOOK CLOSER, LENNY."
"Ohhh, I know what it is. You're the biggest man in the world now. Aaaand you're covered in gold!"

You never know if the art school buddy you haven't spoken to since 2018 will reach out to you about making a director's cut of one of their weekly assignments and just needs that footage of an old CRT television

So awesome being a data hoarder. Hey do you think I'll need 200 gigs of 4k b-roll from a movie I edited 4 years ago? Idk, but what if I do?

Rewatched OBAA yesterday and I keep thinking about the drum beat that kicks in during the final chase right as the bad guy's car drives into frame. It's just suspence suspence suspence, BOOM drums

I uploaded two identical shots, one with a cooler color and one with a neutral color, hit ANALYZE and it turned everything bright orange lol. What are we doing here man?

Daniel Gallegos @beanwalrus.bsky.social · 6d

It's absolutely bonkers that adobe doesn't have a "here are two similar shots, color grade one to match the other one" button. Actually technically it does have that button, but it's powered by their BS AI so you'd probably be able to guess that it doesn't work even a little bit

Spielberg saying "I've never smoked pot" and PTA chiming in with "yeah I don't smoke either" lmfao. Ok man

Watched Donnie Darko and my blazing hot take is that Richard Kelly could've been a David Lynch if we'd let him. They threw him in director jail at the first opportunity because they knew and couldn't handle the possibility

This is also my operating theory. Same reason people started playing Instagram reels in public at full volume all the time

I just really don't understand the woman who walks around my neighborhood with an off-leash chihuahua, and now started *bike riding* while the chihuahua follows her, and expects the dog to not start shit. It's a chihuahua!

Daniel Gallegos @beanwalrus.bsky.social · 8d

Has anyone noticed a sharp uptick of people not taking care of their dogs lately? I've run into three off-leash dogs in my neighborhood in the last day. Is this a societal collapse due to individual narcissism thing or what
