I made this just for you. Days ago. But the mood’s all sour now.

I was looking forward to a real Toonamiguy rant on the side of all this, and now I’m just immensely bummed out. I feel for Doc. My heart goes out to him. He’s doing the right thing, but he really wanted to pour his passion out for the fans and he can’t because of asshole corporate greed above him. I had pretty much an “eh” attitude towards general pop culture PR shit and reading his post still got to me. What an incredible team.

The Metalocalypse panel has been cancelled. https://comiccon2023.sched.com/event/1OX8F/metalocalypse-army-of-the-doomstar

“I’m not allowed to legally own a Meerkat? Bullshit!” *Sees image of Meerkat ferociously unhinging its jaw* ”Oh fuck. Never mind.”

I was thinking about Phantom Limb’s arc in the earlier seasons just days ago. I get it’s been commented on numerous times, and the show’s gone on to do grander things, but I don’t know. Stuff with him still feels unfinished. I remember he was just starting to grow on me right as the show told him to fuck off. I’d like to see this film really take him on all over again, but I’m aware that’s raising my hopes too high.

Aw, so sorry about your AC! I’ve been looking forward to what you and Leichenvene have had to share for awhile now if that helps any. Just hope you’re staying cool and hydrated!

The shine box line was the funniest fucking thing. Frank Vincent was a card. And I love how he says it with noticeable anger on his face because he’s mad Tommy “got fresh” with him.

Meatball marinara. Bleh, didn’t care for it.

*Can’t delete comments but I was just suggesting a reversal idea with Venture Bros having one good comic issue since that’s all I could think of*

Fuck man, I hope you’re alright. It’s always a death trap with these drivers.

She’s a NERD! D:<

Red vs. Blue just released their final season trailer days ago and I had no fucking idea lol.

In general I get by with whatever I can, but the worst is when I got something important going on in the day and my body refuses to let me sleep. I’ve gone to work a couple times knowing I haven’t slept in over 24 hours and felt like a different enigma entirely.

It’s funny how influential Animation Domination’s outdated model is even today. Have Bender and Pajama Bobby dance to Party Rock In The House like Comedy Central did a couple years back. We got the LOLs On Demand!

A little animation history nugget that sparked my interest. The people of Cartoon Network Studios are in the process of packing their $&!t and leaving to a WB space. Very unfortunate situation. Notable people from the network such as Craig McCracken have taken the time to reminisce this establishment they practically helped build. Within the first few weeks of CN having the building, not only was there some local hijinks with production crew over excessive spray painting in the halls; a familiar-looking flag was ordered to be taken down. Quite the story! Brian later corrects himself that the logo was designed by Linda Simensky. Still pretty cool. I always thought the Skull thing originated right at the heart of Williams Street in GA. Didn’t know it was meant for California sights.

Excessive fireworks nonstop all week long has flared up my tinnitus. And it keeps fucking going.

They were aggressively trying to make Delocated a thing in the early 2010s. I loved Jon Glaser’s previous work but I couldn’t appreciate the witness protection gimmick/having that voice modulator the entire show. I wouldn’t say I’ve grown to love the show, but I find it alright now.

In fairness, that’s a huge jump from outright requesting to attack the uploader. You can have your own opinion about an AI fan video being mass reported, and you absolutely should think the lowest of everyone on the internet these days. But most online would only like to believe their followers are not parasocial sheep, and can do things the adult way if they truly cared. That naive behavior is not something exclusive to just Erica. Some broken heads out there would go by any little excuse to start dishing out the unfathomable. Both could’ve easily been harassed if that’s where you’re getting at, which looks like just that happened. And there’s only so much responsibility you can take *if at all* for some fucked up rando choosing to go completely out of line.

Ingrates already had serious lack of respect for the profession of voice acting, and this AI shit has only made that conversation ten times worse. I’ve seen videos where more humble VAs making less money in the industry would have their voices lazily automated to narrate. Then the actors would see them and be like “yeah, I had no involvement and it’s unprofessional to use me in this way instead of reaching out.” Things have gone too far. I can’t say for sure that I’ve seen the worst yet or not, because there’s always next week. But the humans actually working in the field should be outraged or at the very least put off by what’s being used. And something should be done.
