in this house we love the artists and engineers and actors who worked on arcane so much that we will not share the leaks

remember that the people who really suffer from leaks are regular people like you and me who worked hard for weeks, months, and years to make this show a reality

comic books are so crazy because there's a guy out there writing comic books who worked for the cia and took partial credit for the us invasion of iraq and his entire catalogue of works is somehow less overtly racist, sexist, and homophobic than a single run written by a nonbinary person with multiple glaad media award nominations

Shout-out to TCGs with such rigorous keywording that even the word "card" has a specific definition and each card is obliged to explicitly tell you whether or not the card you're holding in your hand is a card.

I spent an hour going through mountains of paper to find bills for tax return...so I found this comic I drew last year and never published :D Every year I remind myself to separate papers with accouting from paper with drawings. Each year I fail. At least this year I had no sketches on my work contracts....

It will forever be hilarious to me that Disney wanted so fucking bad to make a Wicked movie — but couldn't get the rights from Universal — that they literally spent billions upon billions of dollars making SEVEN different films (and a whole season of television; not even including their sequels and spinoffs) more than one of which they even got Idina and Kristen to be in based on the stripped-down premise of "what if the Stock Female Antagonist™ was secretly the Misunderstood Angsty Girlboss Heroine™ all along?" (because Disney execs don't actually care about Wicked, they just saw Green, said "hey! if we can't get the real thing, why not use Our Own (and/or Public Domain) characters?" and simply followed the Marketing Department Road all the way to the bank).

Less funny is the fact they were so successful at it — regardless of the merits (or lack thereof) of any of those projects — that it ended up getting the production of the actual Wicked movie delayed by more than a decade (because it would ironically have looked like a copycat and probably faded into the background if it had come out back when Disney was pumping out knockoffs every fucking year).

got a worm nibbling my brain. can someone help me find a piece of obscure media?

webcomic/indie comic from the 2010s. basically a sci-fi short story about a young girl (with red hair?) who was being raised by scientists as part of an experiment. she receives a haircut/has her head shaved, in preparation for her annual brain scan/testing. it is revealed that while her body is human, her "brain" is artificial, made of computer implants throughout her skull and spine. at some point her biological mother (also a scientist on the same campus?) encounters her and is repulsed, viewing her as a machine who has murdered her daughter.

it was very poignant and it bruised my heart and i can NOT find it anywhere

WHEREIN A GONG SOUNDS WHEN A SPANISH WOMAN IN A FRENCH ASSOCIATION EATS CANTONESE NOODLES

I love this ID dearly, time to rhrhrgghhhh

Beginning with posture, Don Quixote is crossing her legs, which is unusual for both our LCB Sinner and other IDs. Indeed, the interviewer in her uptie story comments on how her leg bounces restlessly as a rather one-sided brawl whirls around them. With crossed legs and bowl in hand instead of on the table where one may set their idle forearms, Don Quixote awaits the moment she and her would-be client lock eyes and speak the magic words: “Please accept my contract.”

Food, costuming, and other comments under the cut:

Her noodles of choice in this image appears to be 河粉(héfěn), a type of wide, flat rice noodle often seen in Southern Chinese cooking such as Cantonese stir-fry. Her particular bowl reminds me of beef brisket noodles, especially with the crunching noises in the uptie story bringing to mind the juicy stalks of choy sum!

Though the exact name escapes me, Don Quixote’s clothing resembles this type of robe and trousers combination often worn by martial artists in Hong Kong and Taiwanese movies and dramas set in the 民国(míngúo) or Republic of China era. Her oval-crowned, miniature fedora, Western-style suit jacket, and circular lenses are also indicative of that time period, where war and resistance against Japanese invaders are often major plot points. Within the resistance also brewed rising conflict between the Communist party and the incumbent Nationalist party, whose handling of the Japanese invasion will fuel the fire of a national schism decades in the making.

These are notably masculine styles in both dress and accessorizing. As a good friend put it, this is the visage of a woman where everyone’s business is her business so long as she is present.

Her jade bracelets and charm earring bring to mind Hong Kong in particular, where the people are more spiritual than most on the mainland. I cannot wait to see what the Eastern City has in store for us. I cannot stress enough how excited I am as the child of Chinese immigrants to see Western audiences so excited over this ID and the promise of entering District 8 in the upcoming Canto VIII amidst the rampant sinophobia of the past decade. Project Moon, our siblings in South Korea, I trust you to do us all proud.
