They should announce modern ports of Street Fighter EX at the partner direct. I'd appreciate it.

Now that the Adobe debacle has started to die down, please don’t forget about the animators. There are a lot of crafts, including animation, that have gotten the shit end of the stick during bargaining for decades. My craft is dying. We need more in house animation.

It would be nice if we could get the bare minimum of all shows having subtitles with translation being done by well paid humans.

Looks like the upcoming MST3K/Rifftrax collab is going to have some insanely awesome production value! ✨

Wow. Just… wow.
Called and spoke with Adobe customer support and the guy told me Adobe is discontinuing Animate because apparently the company can't think of any new features to add to the program and they feel it's gotten stale.
So they're just GETTING RID OF IT???

Someone has a year to buy the code for Adobe Animate, make it open source like Blender, and really do something worthwhile in this world.

Bleak. I mean it can take some getting used to with older films or films about more complexed and difficult subjects but like reading the more you do it the easier and more satisfying it becomes.

Bit of an update for my work down the road! Port seems to have hit a dead end with studios and the best thing for me I think is to focus on something more longterm I've been working on a graphic novel based on my first series as well as little animated something, and hope to share more soon!

there is too much anime. we are getting more tv anime per season than any single year of the 1980s or even some years of 1990s. Nobody can watch this. it is absolutely unsustainable and when this inevitably crashes, it’s going to make the 80s bubble and the 2000s bubble look like tiny little blips.
Friends, #weebwednesday is upon us once again! You know the drill - quote-post with your weebiest hot takes, nothing racist, nothing intentionally inflammatory, have fun with it ♥

I’ve been staying with family during the big winter storm. How many game nights, movie nights, story shares, or meaningful conversations have been snuffed out or never started by the advent of the smartphone?

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes! 🎉 It’s been a busy day so far between juggling my freelance gig + getting ready for the winter storm + treated to dinner with my folks tonight. My birthday wish is for my family and friends to stay safe, warm, & fed during this gross weather.

I'm a pretty firm believer that nobody in a modern civilized country should have to go without food, shelter, or healthcare. That should be the baseline for every citizen in this country, and I'll never understand why we aren't all aiming for that.

On an intense deadline grind over the next couple of days but the “Escape 2000” episode of MST3K keeps the spirits high. The movie is a perfect fit for the format:
✅ Rock dumb yet incomprehensible at times
✅ Cliche-ridden characters
✅ Super-violent
✅ Dubbed
✅ Nihilistic ending
✅ Rockin’ soundtrack
