Like most kids, I was enamored by the 90s Disney animations. So while Pixar was dominating, I got a bachelor’s in 2D animation.
Graduated to no jobs. Animation work is shipped overseas. And the little animation jobs there are were concentrated in a few parts of the US.
Not once have I ever made any income from my background.
Been working on marketing for a decade adding more garbage to this world.
Makes sense, especially in this economy
Let them fight.
I don’t understand why anybody watches a dude who lives in filth and go, “Ah yeah this guy has good opinions on things!”
When I was a kid, there was a phase where everyone was obsessed with red flannel. Went on for like 3 months.
Imagine a pro dominantly black/Latino school in the hood where we’re all dressing up like Al Borland from Home Improvement.
This is a em dash (—).
Your welcome! Enjoy your styrofoam cup coffee from a deli that smells of Malboro cigarettes. The sugar has weird moving black things and milk has been left out for 3 days.
Sometimes I wonder if instead of being angry and fighting, just make out.
Boxers? Stop it. Less jabs, more smooches.
Rival footballers? Come on bro. Kiss the opposing team.
Enemy combatants? Stop using firearms, and give your enemy a fire in their pants.
Was invited to a Dave And Busters as a bachelor’s party. It was so ridiculously corny. It was a gift from the groom’s dad. The groom didn’t have any other ideas, so this was it.
All the plastic instrument games were broken. Half of the fighting games had a broken joystick.
Honestly we could have just got a raspberry pi and some emulation games, and get drunk in the backyard.
Appreciate it.
I kept seeing it like “Death to arbitrary numbers in Cryptography?”
I’m surprised he didn’t go with a stupid acronym
I remember HS history was incredibly neutered. It was still America is Heroes. There were small cracks, like Japanese internment camps. Or the Trail of Tears. But they had a single paragraph or two. I remember reading about the Vietnam war and how people “feel” about it.
Only during college did I read about real history. Things like our meddling in the Philippines. Our meddling in South America. Our meddling in Southeast Asia after WW2. Not to mention real American history, like Black Wall Street.
The worse is that the text books are owned by conservatives, so expect even more neutering/white washing. Combined with religious folks hating modern education and homeschooling, and we got ourselves some backwards ass folks.
As a kid, I distinctly remember protesting (two separate decades) to stop the middle east invasion. I remember even when it was announced, it was deeply unpopular.
And here we are again.
I met the neighbors who talked about their trip in Europe, and then proceeded to show me a 2 minute video of fireworks in Paris off their phone.
It wasn’t even like a good shot or framing, nor could I tell it was Paris. It was just a random hotel room, and in the background, fireworks.
She then put her phone away and said, “Neat, huh?”
I don’t know if it was just peak comedy or if I was being Punk’d or something.
They desperately wanted to eliminate personal computers and replace them with dumb terminals running over the net.
I don’t know about that.
Dumb terminal concept was more what Chromebook was doing.
Microsoft is doing something even stupider.
It does put you in a false state sometimes and it’s good to know multiple perspectives.
I invited these new guys out to go drinking. And my god, the level of ignorance and “uh I don’t really understand politics” followed by a strong appreciation for Elon Musk.
Yeah last time I’m drinking with those guys.
Love to see this grow.
