STATION ID! HELLO!

I do stuff with puppets and animation, including Obsidian National Forest (a comedy/horror/mystery series about owls in a spooky forest) and Quantum Pavilion (a series about abandoned edutainment theme park robots).

You can see 'em here: https://youtube.com/@seamesihla

The experience of realizing you procrastinated too much and you gotta pull an all-nighter to finish writing something and then you look back, strung-out and half-alive, and LIKE what you wrote, and could only imagine how good you could be if you were kinder to yourself

...that's the important stuff

I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.
wrote 20 pages on Faulkner's The Bear four hours before final papers were due on trucker pills and coffee and cigarettes and got an A, fuck you. You people couldn't hang with real slackers. finn wokeupchic • 4d It's fuck Al till your homework due in 25 minutes

Ooh, the career of Norman Lloyd is a great example of this. He costarred with both Charlie Chaplin and Bill Hader.

The first season of SNL wasn't all that long after the end of I Love Lucy, but seeing Desi Arnaz share a stage with John Belushi feels, for some reason, incredibly disorienting.

One fond memory I'll always have of the Nine Inch Nails show is when the pre-show music was Throbbing Gristle's "Hamburger Lady" blasting through an arena that usually hosts NBA games.

October Comes to Puppetland, day 7! The ants in Pee-Wee's ant farm! One of my favorite things about this show is that it takes the time to have all these different kinds of animation in every episode, like the paper cut-out animation of the ants. #PlayhouseTober #Drawtober
A mixed-media art piece of the ant farm and the ants from Pee-Wee's Playhouse.

It's Sunday night, it's October, so it's the perfect time for a VOID broadcast tinged with the strange. The dormant WHR 1025 has come back online, and a new DJ has found their way to the booth. They brought Billie Eilish, Sleep Token, Rush and more with them.

This paragraph from Vincent Price's autobiography feels particularly perceptive.
Text: "But seeing is a much-neglected course in most of our schools. In fact, visual education is a little like sex education in America. You pick up what you can, impelled by natural passions. Either that or it's unappetizingly clinical. The schools teach us what to look at, if at all, but almost never *how* to look at anything."

WHY DID THEY GENTRIFY THE AUDACITY LOGO
the regular audacity logo on the left (a waveform between two headphones) and the REAL NEW audacity logo on the right (flat style red headphones, where one of the headphones is a half-circle to fit with the rest of musehub's design Thing. It simultaneously looks extremely generic and like a sperm cell is flying out of a semicircle)
