It's a tricky balance, because an important part of a sitcom is setting up patterns of the characters' lives, so when those patterns are disturbed it actually means something. You kind of need some "normal" eps for that to work, but they can be interesting in other ways. (sorry for the ramble)

I'm sure that's obvious but I forget sometimes. The fewer episodes you have, the more important the content of each one is. Every ep should bring something new-- a new side of a character, the world, production experimentation, etc. You never want to feel like you're making "another normal one."

Yeah it's tough doing any art these days, but especially long-form like a series, where unless it goes viral all you have to sustain it is your own enthusiasm. I think the two most important things are keeping the production process fun, and making sure each episode matters for you personally.

last week when I was in London I got ambushed by Reuters for a street interview about Zohran Mamdani's win. I was still just waking up but here's the clip

Pretty much all affordability discourse could benefit from just posting this chart.
If you're in the better off America, all the luxury goods you want in excess are for the most part much cheaper. If you're in the poorer America, most of the shit you need to live/grow is more expensive.

Instagram used to be annoying because of the narcissism. Now it's annoying because it reduces the past to bite-size clips and regurgitates them for likes. It's like an attention-hungry dog endlessly eating another dog's puke and puking it up again while being bafflingly praised by halfwit onlookers.

Zohran Mamdani won NYC Mayor while unapologetically:
-Calling Israel's siege on Palestinians a genocide
-Upholding ICC's warrant to arrest Netanyahu
-Upholding BDS as a legitimate form of free speech
-Demanding Palestinian self-determination
-Securing a plurality of Jewish voters
This is the future

The Art of Angel’s Egg reprint (released this month to coincide with the 4k restoration) is a great way to revisit a long out of print book. For fans of Mamoru Oshii and Yoshitaka Amano it’s worth picking up though like the name suggests it’s really just artwork, very little text.
