bad acid reflux, I was kinda dumb and ate tomato stuff a few hours before bed.

Something that always gets me is the art credits in big movies. There's dozens of people working on motion, animation, etc. Each of these is an artist, so how many different stories are there about learning to make stuff, selling stuff at cons, having their own OCs or fan AUs, etc?

Sort of like when I look at apartment buildings and the diversity in all the lives I can imagine playing out there, just blows me away.

more Lizard Park Movie spoilers, nerdy, all caps 

also also also they LET THE INDORAPTOR HAVE A PUBIS! IT ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE A THEROPOD! 💙​

spoiler, Jurassic World, neeerrrrd 

so they gave more screen time to the characters I really wanted to see, and one of them is a Stygimoloch.

Except the paleontologist who suggested there is no such thing as a Stygimoloch is Dr. Jack Horner, the film's scientific advisor.

HOWEVER the Stygimoloch character does act kinda like a little kid, so it's still up in the air. I thought that was really awesome!

spoilers, uspol adjacent 

okay so the same way Jurassic World was Blackfish only with dinosaurs, JW Fallen Kingdom was the anthropogenic climate change analogy movie.

One of the two big parts where the filmmakers make a dig at our Turd-in-Chief is, there's a little CNN scroller in the news story in which "President says he doesn't think dinosaurs originally existed" or something like that. As a fundie dogwhistle and complete bullshit, it's COMPLETELY what he would say.

Omg omg omg the usual crowd of assholes will hate it and THERE WAS I THINK A MEDUSACERATOPS!!!💙

Oh sweet sacred Corellon Larethian AND THE ENTIRE SELDARINE, why?

Trying to improve my understanding of folds in Fabric, waiting for the 7:00 showing of Big Lizards Rawr V.

have you ever considered that 40K canon is basically that the Eldar were Goths until they accidentally created Slaanesh with too much Queer BDSM, and since that time the Dark Eldar have repressed chaos within them by being rockabilly metalheads instead?

other vaguely matriarchal animals you might enjoy as feminist furry icons; elephants, orcas. This is not at all a pathetic expression of wanting to see more orca anthro art. It really isn't.

Something that gets me is these articles where there's a $180 sandwich or something.

My really limited experience with actually rich people suggests that one of the big things you do with that much money is you get a REALLY AWESOME KITCHEN and it basically pays for itself in no time; really expensive meals are social things or on vacation.

Are there that many rich dudes out there who really are walking, breathing negative stereotypes? Or is this stuff for financial dick size contests or what?

what is this thing called akkeeeeeeraaaaa

* blasts completely different Genioh Yamashiro album while revamping resume for agency *

since it's 2018, I am pretty sure the usual crowd will complain that Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom included female and POC characters, and I will complain that Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom doesn't have enough ceratopsians.

just not focused. Distracted from doing PTSD workbook stuff, want agency to call me so I can be done with that and then take a nap/study more Denis Bodart/finally go watch Cretaceous World Fallen Kingdom (seriously have you noticed how much winds up being basically Hell Creek fauna?).

tired: worrying about getting a job, the consequences of political stuff, increasing rent, self-isolation.

wired: worrying about whether I just offended someone online who has plenty of other possible reasons to not respond to me

inspired: worrying that I was a real jerk sometime in the late '90s.

HOT TAKE

Groot, from Marvel/MCU is obviously more motile than an earth plant and his woody bits grow at a pretty fast rate. So what're the chances that he's actually technically a *lichen*?

I don't get how it's supposed to be "Top Ramen" when you can't in fact spin it for any length of time.

Because I am a feeling and I will never end.
And I won't let you hurt my planet.
And I won't let you hurt my friends.

so I hadn't thought about this before but;

I think having Genioh Yamashirogumi's soundtrack really makes Akira to a not-small extent. The distance from being purely Japanese motifs fits the "this isn't the Japan where you're watching this movie," and yet it's NOT futuristic sounding at all - a little like how Star Wars' soundtracks tell you it's NOT science fiction, it's larger than life romanticism, Akira's soundtrack tells you it's about human conflict, growth and interaction.

oh YEAH someone posted a whole batch'a Genioh Yamashirogumi albums to YouTube I'm so STOKED!
