also I just played gracious host and pointed out some places on FurryMUCK to a newbie, in 2023, how's that even happen?

being unwell means missing sleep and reading about WWII British aircraft on the toilet

meanwhile people on a MU* are talking about The Monkees for some reason

which leads to the thought that Sea Monkeys are the Fleet Air Arm variant with an arrestor hook

The Cabbage Kid! He learns the secret art of Kyabetsu to win over the local bullies, from his apartment's handyman, kindly old Mr. Okonomiyaki!

@topaz I should probably NOT link the worst fight choreography I've seen in a movie, where the opponents are kinda randomly slashing and stabbing at points only vaguely near each other.

@topaz Nope, the skeletons are composited in! They're about 1/6 scale.

@topaz Yeah; if you have anything interacting with live action you can't cheat, and you have to draw/move stuff 24 times each second. All this is Harryhausen himself animating (as well as he did the sculpting, made the armatures, etc) - so it's pretty incredible to me.

@topaz Here's the fight with the skeletons in Jason and the Argonauts. This is from 1963 and for reference animated at 24 fps.

I think I figured out some of what caused the shit mood earlier.

I also deactivated my Twitter account.

My father completely detests Ray Harryhausen stop-motion mythological movies, would you believe that?

I’m in a shit mood so here’s a selection of very angry werewolves.

@topaz “I’m bad, and that’s good. I will never be good, and that’s not bad. There is no-one I’d rather be than me.” Gotta remember this one and gotta make myself say the whole quote even if my belief in it is real shaky.

Have I mentioned recently, how much I hate being me, and how much I would rather be one of the good people?

Run out the starboard guns, Mister Bellamy, and give them a whiff of grapeshot! Aye, and after we finish the Cutthroat Island soundtrack we pull for the Captain Blood soundtrack! ARRRR!

Hey, this is a long shot but I was thinking of trying to get to Furvana on Saturday, I was wondering if anyone else was going (or near Seattle and interested in carpooling)?

If we don’t take action now,
We’ll settle for nothing later,
We’ll settle for nothing now,
And we’ll settle for nothing later.

I’M INFERIOR?
WHO’S INFERIOR?
YEAH YA BETTER CHECK THE INTERIOR
OF THE SYSTEM WHO CARES ABOUT ONLY ONE CULTURE!

Me: the track vents incredible frustration at how Reagan - and Republicans since - have completely sabotaged this country, yet we’re expected to play along like nice happy peasants when it’s our backs up against the wall

The Beasties: Sabotage is self mocking about us being too sunk in our role as “serious artistes” to accept our producer’s criticism

IIIIIII
CAN’T STAND IT!
I KNOW Y’PLANNED IT
IMA SET STRAIGHT THIS WATERGATE!
CAUSE I CAN’T STAND ROCKIN’ WHILE I’M IN HERE
CAUSE Y’CRYSTAL BALL AIN’T SO CRYSTAL CLEAR
SO WHILE Y’SIT AND WONDER WHY
I GOT THIS FUCKIN’ THORN IN MY SIDE?
