I was like "why does this look jittery and shitty" and then. I remembered. arcs

been so long since I animated I FORGOT ABOUT ARCS

my life is like animal crossing city folk

wait b*n shap*ro's eyebrows really look like that? I thought it was a photoshop

woke up at 4am to my kitty stepping on my hair and I immediately started making a mental venn diagram comparing and contrasting Tony Zaret and Dan Hentschel

[buys a video game toy] oh god am I a class traitor?

I gotta read more theory man I just had to think for a second on whether I'm petite bourgeoisie despite never owning a business and never having employees and being, in fact, currently unemployed

they start with THE SAME SONG and have THE SAME VILLAIN REVEAL and even incorporate themes of grief and loss with a slightly angsty teenage girl protagonist

it was almost 100% a coincidence but there are SO MANY weirdly similar elements in Hoppers and that Netflix movie Next Gen that it shocked me

often they are multiple. cartographer is Jay + Rarity, diplomat is Matt + RD + AJ, bodyguard is Fluttershy + a little bit of Big Mac, and wizard is Twilight + Spike

when I make a character I think "okay, are they a Matt, a Jay, or one of the MLPFIM mane 6?"

like finding out that Pokopia is all grid/voxel/blocky made all desire to play it vanish instantly

having weirdly specific hangups/turnoffs in terms of game design has saved me soooo much money and time

I literally just needed a Primary Quest for them to start on before they get sidetracked on accidentally becoming the first rockstars ever and didn't want something that involved "going to get an item" or "bringing an item to a place" and they're all too friendly to be on a "kill a thing" quest

cartographer (fancy kinda guy who has been waiting his whole life for this)
diplomat (his childhood friend who conned her way into the job)
bodyguard (mysterious woman with a sword, half asleep at all times)
wizard (accidental stowaway who basically never left her wizard hippie commune before this)

something about the calming way he says it

how it feels to see people eating prosciutto now that I'm vegetarian

update: I finally figured out what they do. they're cartographers (or one cartographer and his bodyguards/friends)

I need to see him again he suuuuuuuuuucks

2012: Wheatley (sorry)
2016: Megamind
2022: Grover Fischoeder
2026: the goddamn Jon Hamm villain from Hoppers

AKA I go from "this was fun! I enjoyed it!" to smiling and tugging on my collar a little bit and searching the character's name on every site just to see if anyone else feels the same

every couple of years I witness a piece of media with a villainous character who's juuust pathetic enough that I become a different kind of fandom person

I think someone in my neighborhood is just having a wood fire for some reason but that's not a good smell to smell in Cally Fornya

kind of a terrifying feeling to hear "does anyone else smell smoke?" at the exact same time my pokemon game freezes mid-battle

every time I get an ad for some sort of car accident settlement app I become a worse and angrier person

I've been falling asleep watching youtube videos lately and by far the worst one I've chosen was the Emergency Alert System Iceberg

the kimchi hit

this is such a cool idea that I'm gonna manually transcribe this playlist to Qobuz to listen to it

oh my god Siskel and Ebert thumb guessing daily game
movienight.games/play/thumbs/...

that makes a lotta sense!! I'm also the kind of person who games for just an hour or a two at a time so that all tracks. and also YEAH like sometimes a game has enough side quests to bulk it up (like Yakuza) but other times it's like, what is this time going into
