For no particular reason, this feels like a good night to declare my love for small-studio animation and independent animation. There's a lot of good stuff out there that's worth watching. So many voices to hear from.

Itβs not just about protecting your art against AI scanning. I donβt want them to have permission to feed my art into whatever awful thing comes after AI as well.
I dumped my Instagram when Zuckerberg announced that he would get a no-restrictions license to use anything posted there. I would hate to go back for so many reasons.
Thanks, folks, for providing the translation. I was just being silly with my bad fan translation, but I appreciate getting the real answer.
I can't read Hungarian, but assume this episode is titled, "Jucika Swears Off Tequila."
This is the 14-year-old who's teachers recommend counseling.

In all fairness;
Yes, "The Great Mouse Detective" is too on-the-nose to be a good title.
Yes, I would also hate to have my title changed after I got attached to the original.
But, I don't think "Basil of Baker Street" would have grabbed little kids' attention either.
Were there no better options?

ppl who still commission their favourite artists even in this era where everyone is broke and genAI is being pushed on us at every opportunityβyou are appreciated more than words can express!!!
More recent experience has taught me that Flash/Animate's other big advantage is how you can combine tweens, rigs, and frame-by-frame animation in the same scene, sometimes on the same layer. If anyone can pull that off, I'll be over the moon.
For literal decades, I've been saying that Flash/Animate's biggest advantage is the interface and if someone could copy it, that would be a game changer.
It took longer than I thought, but maybe we're finally getting there.
This week, I successfully replaced the starter on my mini fridge so it runs consistently. Now if any kids try to prank call me I'll be all set.
I am intrigued...
Yesterday was the full moon that we call The Worm Moon. Enjoy your worm feast!

The dirt is a nice touch.
I think I have all the pieces. Is Woke Cat okay?
I asked what Larry Whittington thought and Ernie said that we didn't need to talk to Larry, but I'd still like to hear from him if he gets the chance.
It's okay, everyone. I saw Ernie Bushmiller's ghost and he told me he's cool with this.
Last weekend, one of my nephews gave me the oddest compliment; "You look so young, if you were in a horror movie, you could be the girl who gets killed in the beginning before the part with the main characters starts."
I don't know the original recipes, but it's safe to assume that flavor was very low on Kellogg's list of priorities.
I just noticed that the article I linked doesn't mention cereal specifically, but I saw once a history documentary that explained how Kellogg cereal was first developed for the sanitarium under the theory that better food would help cure humans of their "vices."
A worm pops out of a moon, which is shaped like an apple with a stem. Other worms encircle the apple moon.
Here's my 8-year-old niece's piece for the March installment of the Full Moon Art Challenge.
Her "Worm Moon" is very clever. I would never have thought of drawing the moon as an apple.

Scene from Gravity Falls, in which Tyler wears a T-shirt made from two different T-shirts. One shirt features a puma, while the other feathers a panther.
I looks like Joyce couldn't decide between two sweater vests before the gift shop closed.

John Kellogg was kind of a freak with an odd obsession with chastity.

Obligatory reminder that modern cereal was first invented as part of a lifestyle program that was intended to repress sexual urges in men.
Here's the growing scene, now with more worms!
