Full credit to the creator @ ThePandaRedd on TikTok who actually made this video (if he contacts me to take this down I will) but I couldn’t just not post yet another golden video of his after watching it...

I think it varies. It may correlate to being generally left of center, but the degree of that really varies. But hair dyeing has steadily become just a fashion thing, in no small thanks to K-Pop.

Is hair color the new equivalent of 60s/70s Hair Politics?

Or do some people legit have colorful hair and it doesn't mean anything?

I bike past several local theaters on one of my usual rides. At the largest and most popular of them, there are 4 available movies:

WONKA KUNG FU PANDA 4 GHOSTBUSTERS FROZEN EMPIRE RED RIGHT HAND

...

My city is having almost all of its theaters file for bankruptcy.

Every time I'm busy all the theaters are playing those made up artsy movies that insecure people talk about to make fun of "film snobs" that just end up sounding really cool and whenever I'm free it's all shit like a Winnie the Pooh Slasher Movie and a Goonies reboot

95% of NFTs are worthless, and most of the most expensive ones are priced between $5-100 where they were once drawing millions US$ apiece

Not a moment too soon, and fully deserved 😎

Coming across this the same week I got through The Sound and the Fury (specifically the second section) provides a very funny moment...and another potential interpretation.

Quentin, buddy, you are in the wrong book series.

ANTEDILUVIAN (Teaser) Animated Short Film

Video HERE

Some gifs from the Preview of an animated short film I've been working on for a year. It's traditional animation, drawn frame by frame. It's risky to do something slightly different on YT, so I hope you guys like it and give it some love.

This would be my homage to the first paleoartists, now celebrating their 200th anniversary.

Can you recognize each vintage dinosaur or the art that inspired this scene?

I've reached "The King of the Golden Hall" in my LOTR reread, and I am obsessed with the way the entire chapter circles around history and memory and narrative.

I'm bringing Hexy back.

Good visual reference on Hexadecimal (And Reboot in general) is shockingly hard to find, so when I found a guy who had done 4k upscales of the series on YT, it was time for some screencaps.

It's a pity the first(ish?) truly all-CG cartoon was probably not preserved in a state that would let it be re-rendered at higher resolution. What was at the time a massive technological undertaking could be rendered real-time on a mid-tier computer now.

Her whole mask-swapping gimmick was, itself, a way of turning tech limitations into an interesting feature. Save time on facial animation and lip synch while making her more memorable.

Every action cartoon series needs a villainous femme fatale, and Hex dispenses with most of the subtlety. She's a dominatrix-witch with a, uh, sprite-tight red leather bodysuit and latex or possibly black painted metal gloves and thigh-boots.

None of us should have been surprised by Blackarachnia is all I'm saying.

And like any good villainess, she's got a full on murder-mode.

And this is going to take more than one post.

Hexadecimal, from Reboot (1994, season 1, Mainframe Entertainment)

Jodie Foster photographed by Daniel Jack Lyons for The Atlantic, 18 February 2024

She’d been looking around the room at the meticulously diverse group of women Elle had chosen to honor, and wondering to herself why she’d been included.

“Finally I realized, like, halfway through; I leaned over to Alex and was like”—her voice dropped to a whisper—“I’m the old queer one!”

“How does that feel?” I asked.

Her eyes were bright. “Feels good! I think it feels good.” .
