ABSOLUTE POWERPUFF GIRLS . #powerpuffgirls #absolutedc #fanart #cartoonnetwork #adultswim #CN

Inspired by @danboywonder ‘s “Absolute Ben 10 . Instead of 3 powerful little girls ? We have a failed chemical X experiment who was born with 3 uncontrollable personalities that they have to control with the help of their disgraced scientist father who rescued her from being destroyed by the DICK corporation . They currently live in a dainty Citiesville apartment where they call home.

This video succinctly illustrates what animators have long know. The movies you hate--especially the neutered, boring ones--are the result of artless execs breathing down animators' necks and stamping all the life, originality, and charm out of our media www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWpl...

Jared Leto may have a toxic reputation, he may have a wildly unappealing screen presence, but say what you will, he also can't open a movie either.

I love that this New Yorker artist very clearly used the Dengeki Pikachu manga as reference, literally no one draws Pikachu like Toshiro Ono

To make up for how Power Rangers is an old Japanese show they filmed additional scenes with Americans for we should do the opposite and make the casts of Law & Order SVU and Grey’s Anatomy stop a couple times an episode to fight people in werewolf costumes

Turtlemania backlash being based in part on the Ninja aspect and any implicit "80s Americans afraid of Japan" cultural baggage is hilarious when you know the TMNT are brain children of two white dudes living in New England

Amanda Wong @amandawtwong.bsky.social · 5d

Don't worry, American culture was also threatened by the ninja turtles based on nothing but "New is bad, old is good"

In Super Smash Bros., the skeletons visible when characters are hurt by electric attacks are not tied to specific animations, and instead are a form that can be toggled on and off at any time, including in cutscenes. Below are excerpts of the game's intro, with skeletons.

I've been wondering why Dominion Voting Systems suddenly reached settlements with Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, and One America News.

Turns out, it's been purchased by a Republican-owned election tech firm that insisted on it, per Axios.

If you want to support @hamishsteele.bsky.social as he and his show are currently under fire by bad actors, I recommend picking up his latest book Go-Man. I haven't had a chance to read my copy yet but the cover alone shows it's going to be a charming adventure

Independent comics as an industry would barely exist these days without the tireless efforts of Kickstarter's staff behind the scenes. As they advise, keep supporting all the amazing projects you already are, but have their back in the process.

‼️🚨KICKSTARTER WORKERS ARE ON STRIKE🚨‼️

As of 8am this morning, the workers of Kickstarter United/OPEIU Local 153 are on strike.

WE ARE NOT ASKING FOR A BOYCOTT! Creators and allies, please continue using and supporting the platform.

Kickstarter United is on strike!
We are not asking for a boycott! Creators & Allies: Please continue to support & use the platform
swipe for ways to show your solidarity

Why We're Striking
A codified 4-day work week.
We simply want to protect the way we've been working for over 3.5 years. The 4dww has proven benefits, such as increased productivity and improved employee satisfaction. It's part of what makes Kickstarter a special, innovative place to work.
Fair pay for our lowest-paid workers.
We're fighting for livable minimum salaries for roles that are undervalued by the market but crucial to keeping Kickstarter running. We believe none of our workers should struggle to make ends meet.
