Friends meet Ghostboy.
Ghostboy just woke up in a dreary place illuminated by dim jack o' lanterns, full of grotesque terrors, unsure of his identity - and all he wants is to LEAVE.
Wanna help bring his story to afterlife (written by @shannondenton.bsky.social, art by me)?

MST3K was such an inspiration growing up.
It's really hard now to grasp just how crazy it was as a kid to see a show that I loved on TV, AND it was made in the same place I lived! It wasn't some faraway place like LA or New York or something!
It made getting into entertainment feel achievable.

In the '60s, an all-star team of Soviet artists assembled -- including Yuri Norstein. Together, they crafted a gentle, quiet gem called The Mitten.
It's lovely stop motion, and it laid the groundwork for the team's later Cheburashka. We explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/a-film-for...

Anyway, abolish ICE, protect trans people, impeach the pedo, and if there's still time, pre-order my new book, SHOCK CITY PUNKS. (It's about a couple of crybaby meatboys who get repeatedly humiliated. Very satisfying.) www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/711869...

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.
The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.

In animation I've seen plenty of people assume their dept. is the hardest/most vital. As someone who's worked from vis dev to final stringout I can tell you: it's all vital. It's all skilled work. An engine is an important car part, but it still won't run without wheels. Be a team, not a tier list.
the discourse on what jobs are acceptable to replace with generative AI reveals a lot about what we think of other people's jobs
