Empress of Mars: Undisputed @zebratron2084@awoo.space

@chandra (it didn't hurt that what little they portrayed of her personality was 100% compatible with the version of Laika I played for years on Taps and LJ...)

@chandra Sadly, it was really too short of a bit to really establish anything, but... let's just say you're not wrong, and I have been marginally tempted for the first time in months to write some fanfic.

@xinjinmeng This... this resonated a lot, drgn. *hug*

It creates kind of a concerning caste system in our household, honestly. :) There are the Elite Aristocats who can make the leap from the driveway fence to our window and come right in (i.e. Shadow and Sugarfoot), and there's the Lumpen Purrletariat who are still forced to compete for a chance at the front door crack.

Needless to say, we do our best to alleviate this inequity with a robust social democratic program of equally distributed food and scritchies. In practice, this mostly means scooping Shemp away from the food bowls when he's being a big butthead so his family can actually get in there too. :p

@mawr It was pretty neat. Especially since Katie Rice is a John K abuse survivor and we got to hear all their plans for a SAFE, RESPONSIVE, DIVERSE, AND WORKER-FRIENDLY studio environment...

@mawr Yeah, it's easy to forget that Once Upon A Time Peg was basically one of the very first people with "Flash director" on her resume...

@mawr We've known about this one for a while! The showrunners are old friends of Peg from her animation days, and there's an alternate universe (with a much more ambitious/foolhardy dragon in it) where she's doing storyboards or something for it...

We met up with Gabe Swarr and Katie Rice at Patrecon a year or two ago and chatted about the show over lunch. They had to go because they "had a meeting with Steven." Martian's honor. It was kinda awesome.

"what a coincidence" : evidence :: Sunny Delight : orange juice

I can not begin to tell you how much I wish I had camera footage of this morning's Kitten Hijinx as we tried to gently escort the kids back onto the porch after getting Zerg Rushed.

Highlights included: a full 360 kitten inversion, Penumbra doing the moonwalk to sneak back into, Shemp and Penumbra each sneaking back in while we opened the door to let the other one out -- FOUR TIMES -- and some very good purrboxing from what are still some very good kitties.

@hystericempress it's a *warning* -- like that kid in Malcolm In The Middle whose shirt said "WARNING: HUGS ARE A TRAP"

@Phorm @anthracite Got nothing but sympathy here, fox. *hug*

@Leucrotta Yeah, honestly, I'll still cheerfully watch Woody Allen or Roman Polanski films -- I just refuse to do anything but steal 'em. It's not that hard to love the work and hate both the values and the guy responsible.

@chimerror Oh lordy begordy, I have been doing wikicrawls on transfinite ordinals and my head has been hurting in the best way. I still don't really _get_ what ω and Ω and ε₀ are, I just know I like them. XD

aaaaaaugh i forgot that a living, sapient, and presumably successful Laika is canon in Bojack Horseman

🛰️🐕​​❤️❤️❤️

@anthracite I think she's overdue, tbh... She is dignified in her old age, but...

You got a new stoner achievement (Very Rare)!

My Little Dishtowel: Use your cherished stuffed unicorn to emergency-clean after a bong spill on your laptop.

"Sorry about that, Noelle. I'll... I'll just get you to the laundrette and wash that out. M... maybe a little Febreeze."

I'm GONNA get a bite of that cereal sooner or later, motherfuckers.

@LexYeen@snouts.online @fluxom_alt @krinndnz If eating humans isn't social justice, I don't know what is. 🐯​

@Austin_Dern Yeah, well, it had it comin'.
