I just made my first audio post! I’ve been having so much fun with Beepbox lately that I wanted to post what I’ve made! I didn’t have a set theme I wanted for this one, but the more it developed the more it became clear that this is a rural, secluded village of sorts. I love this so much! Super proud of myself!

Good Stuff: Bluey's The Sign
Bluey is still great and I don't need to go into why again. What's most important is that even in such short time of knowing this cartoon, you can see the growth of it all. Joe and the crew share how the world of the Heeler family gets to learn, adapt, and grow without rapidly warping the status quo. You go through and see how everyone is able to work through rough and weird times with sincere maturity. Season 3's Finale is where this all comes to a head and it's as beautiful as I expected, MORESO.
Brandi got to be happy would've been enough for me
The Sign deals with the idea of hard ideas. Those hard ideas that aren't inherently about change, but issues that when faced with initially, it feels like a bad ending. A bad ending which can't be easily fixed and you don't know where to go from there, and it hurts. It hurts when hard ideas swoop in, ruins your mood, festers your mind, and leaves you aimless. Bluey shows that it happens, this is the rare time where a ton of crap hits the fan in one day and it's not something Chili or Bandit or any adult can fix right away. I've never experienced this, but I felt the pain Bluey, Bingo, Frisky, and Chili went through where they're bargaining, burying, and avoiding confronting a potential reality they didn't want. This is where the real hero of the special comes in...
Haven't said before, but Calypso is a masterful teacher
The parable of the farmer works as an incredible seedling thought for Bluey when she reveals her moving. It's not a story I ever heard, but known the message all too well. The message of not just accepting bad things that happen to you, but know that it'll never be the end of the world because of them. Don't think of it as deep, but a natural motif to grow with. This is where a debacle regarding the episode churns with me. It can seem like a cop-out that every character gets what they wanted by the end, as I said before the cartoon can be more idealistic than what our real life allows. Then again, the true beauty of Bluey I believe has always been if it's possible, the family will find a way and do it responsibly.
If happiness can be achieved, they'll know how to get it
Beyond all this, the special is great. They waste no minute here in art and storytelling, and as said before, it's like Smash Bros Ultimate where everything is here. There are great callbacks to episodes you probably wouldn't have thought about, on top of getting to see the whole Heeler family on Chili and Bandit's sides like that blew my mind. Plus I love seeing weddings, dude, like I wish I was there with them. The feels are tsunami-ous like it's unfair to say this is the all-time best episode of the show, but darn if it wouldn't be earned.
When else will I see the epicness of riding shotgun?
But to conclude, it's been said that after this the Ludo crew will take a indefinite hiatus from Bluey the series, especially when they have a new project underway. And honestly? I'm more than satisfied. The show could've ended here and I would've been somewhat at peace with them giving us this beautiful episode. I of course didn't get into this series since its beginning, but I came around the right time to enjoy it myself, to see others recognize its greatness, and to finally make it here. It's great to know this was only another chapter in the book, and I'll see to be around when it gets to come back. As for The Sign? What else is there to say?
It was Beautiful. Cheers to the crew for everything.

So like obviously I'll have to watch Good Omens S2 and decide how or if my OC au fits in it, but like putting that aside, you'd have to admit it would be funny if like toddler Kaia was just there in the background of the season. Not only do Az and Crowley have to deal with whatever's happening this season, but they're also raising a toddler. Across the Spiderverse vibes like Peter B. Parker and Mayday.

common ground i think is one of the only episodes of mlp i would say is mainly For adults, not just adult fans (with kids) but adults in general, like, parents who are watching the show with their kids
and im kinda curious abt that, this was definitely an episode mainly focused on rainbow dash helping her friend try and bond with his girlfriends kid cause she wont marry his gf without her daughters approval, package deal thing, and the way they go abt it absolutely has mlp fun and flare that make it appropriate for kids but the way they write like a very Adult problem with the adult characters, it definitely feels more like the writers wanting to give something to the parents (mainly step or Soon to be stepparents ig) something to snack on and take from which i really dig

I made another audio post! This one is very different from my other one. It’s very space themed with a lot of pads and synths! I figured out how to get the notes to bend/warp and it sounds so cool! Really loving these!

My favorite Episode of Bluey
I've talked before about how Bluey has immediately become a favorite cartoon of mine. It's the equivalent to fishing minigames, you really just enjoy your downtime of talking puppies getting into creative hijinks with their supportive parents and friends. Don't think I talked about my favorite episode though so here we're doing that. There are plenty of episodes I can say are better than this one, either with their emotional or funny moments, but I found this to be the reason I came to love this series.
"Rain" is the rare episode where it basically has no dialogue. There are a couple lines at the beginning, but after saying goodbyes it's nothing but the sounds of the skies and a beautiful instrumental. Joff Bush and Jazz D'arcy kill it in making a soft but jovial tune about playing in the rain. I never really played in the rain because I always worried about catching a cold, but like Looney Tunes, this knows how to capture the tone without any voicing necessary; a good detail is that more instruments get added when Bluey and/or Chili get involved. As for the story, it's the most simple but wholesome to me.
It would've been one thing for Bluey herself to just jump around or play in the mud, but no. This is something I honestly would've done where she tries to dam up the gutter stream in front of the house. It's such a simple goal but it's built up so well because this is so inline with who she is; when she commits to something, she sees it through. Then again, she's not the only story in this.
Chili's side of things is the initial frustration of Bluey making wet tracks in the house. Again, it's simple and what works is that you don't dislike Bluey for being so into this thing she's while empathizing with Chili's increased annoyance. I don't want to read too much into it, but where Chili isn't pleased with her child's neglect, she knows well that Bluey is going to be Bluey. That's what works about this series, the synergy between the parents and children is more ideal, but it lets you understand the parents' perspective.
Makes me a little giddy every time
The joy of Bluey is the light, blessed fun in the experience. Something simple can be made into a memorable time because you see the characters having a memorable time, no matter what troubles can come from it. Not only that, but they know how to make everyone feel satisfied by the end. "Rain" hits those good notes not just as a fan of Bluey, but as a lover of animation in general. It visually looks amazing, with the right amount of gloominess and a kind of nightly atmosphere fitted for those perfect rainy days. Again, there are better episodes I can admit, but I find this the show at its most comfortable to me. Don't know what else to say...
It's My Favorite
