This neatly explains why Kleiner's Headcrab in Half-Life 2 is named Lamarr. Anyways, what about her companion on this groundbreaking endeavor?

Small wonder Susan Egan, Meg's VA, became Rose Quartz in Steven Universe.

Regardless on what happens to that remake, this animated movie classic deserves to stay as long remembered.

Quite a good film, all things considered. Just ignore the fecking sequel.

Not really. The right one, now that can be deemed as priceless regardless of the impurities. The left one I don't mind being "delisted", become obscure, and eventually as forgotten as whatever happened to Mary Magdalene after the Crucifixion... so many legends out there, you know.

Tumblr Tuesday: Women Loving Women in Art
It's Lesbian Visibility Week, an excellent time to be celebrating women who love women. Give it up for the sapphics, their muses, and the gorgeous art that honors them.

I remember this. Good thing YTuber PhantomStrider made me be piqued about this book recently.
Hello Mister Gaiman!
I'm currently reading "Genderqueer" by Maia Kobabe for one of my university classes on Queer Embodiment, and found this little gem. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
Morpheus helping out a questioning genderqueer person on their journey to self-discovery sounds about right!
It really does.

Either way, they're not A.I. like the fictional yet charming EDI from Mass Effect and the Freelancer Alpha-personalities from Red vs. Blue. No, they're more like the boring and unoriginal V.I.s also from Mass Effect.

Third one looks a toothed mouth. I like and fear that.

Well, then, I hope she also likes other sci-fi vessel kitbashes, like the Star Control Earthling Cruiser and the FreeSpace Galactic Terran Destroyer Orion-class.

For now, probably Porco Rosso. WW1-WW2 interbellum movies interest me, for one reason.

One thing I can gratifyingly say... I would be graciously honored if I personally made sure I get to give The Little Mermaid remake the Unreal + Unreal Tournament 1999 and 2004 treatment, only more justified. If you know, *you know.*

In a nutshell reminiscent of The Matrix and The Amazing World of Gumball:
Willow: "...I know brain-fu."
Boscha: *"Show me."*

Sucks that the PC port is both too pricey and undeservedly wonky. Insulting, really, since the other LucasArts classics have aged well a bit while going cheap a lot.

Seeing this is very much appreciated.
Saw the ask about magical boys and your wish for magical trans kids: may I introduce you to Zoe from Sleepless Domain webcomic? She is one of the main secondary characters and she's super sweet and tries her best! (If you haven't read Sleepless Domain, try it out! It has a ton of fun concepts, pain and suffering, world cold girlfriends soft, parents know what is going on but are powerless to step in and have to let their kids fight, three mysterious gals, wholesome team(s) and survivor's guilt~
I love Sleepless Domain! I've actually backed both of its kickstarters. It's easily one of my favorite post-Madoka magical girl stories out there and I'd also highly recommend it to anyone who's looking for a good story in general.
Also imo CubeWatermelon is REALLY good at compositions. Seriously, if you like comics and can appreciate a good set of panels, check out her work (note that the first two chapters had their art made by a different artist, but Cube has done the art for the rest of the comic). I reread the comic once every few months just to study her pages. Like, take note how often she doesn't chicken out and will just make sure that excellent establishing shots and good backgrounds are included-- you never feel lost reading her work and always know where everyone is. The flow and movement are really good too. Fight scenes can be really hard to portray but you can easily tell what folks are doing.
I know that sounds like the bare minimum but you'd be surprised by how many comics out there really struggle with making sure that the reader, like. actually knows what's going on. Finding an artist that prioritizes clarity is a nice treat. I'm also always impressed at how much character and personality she can pack into a page. Off the top of my head, stuff like Tessa's room being full of her own merchandise:
Anyways yeah, Sleepless Domain is amazing and anyone who likes magical girl stuff should read it.
Edit: All that and I forgot to link the comic. Derp.

Now that's a huge gripe against Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus for me. Anyways, if you can, you may wanna like Red vs. Blue Seasons 1-14.
I’ve noticed that a lot of media that I consume (shows, mostly, but also books and movies) do something where they set it up so that the main character will have to die at the end in order to save everyone else. One of two things happens, and it annoys me. One, the character dies and then is brought back. Two, at the last minute there’s another solution and the character doesn’t have to die. I feel like more writers should commit to a meaningful sacrifice of their main characters. Sometimes it works, but sometimes I just want that brutal, bittersweet moment, and I want it to be final, so that we can really appreciate the character’s sacrifice. Or even if it’s not a sacrifice, and the character just flat out fails, I sometimes wish there was a commitment and we can feel that failure. I don’t mean to say that happy endings shouldn’t exist, I like happy endings. But sometimes it feels like it could totally work to keep the main character dead.
Anyways, I was wondering your opinion on this, my late-night rambling.
You'd probably like Sandman.
