watching a movie at home circa like, 2001 was like

put your TV on channel 2 so the VCR will work

open up the clamp shell case that held the VHS that has that satisfying crrlikkkkkk

put in the movie

gdi it has to be rewound

press STOP and then rewind because its so much faster that way

start the movie and it takes a few seconds for the movie to actually start cause you rewound to the VERY beginning

FBI will get you if you illegally distribute or exhibit this movie

and then. because you forgot that movies are always so much louder than TV

So like. What was going through Cobra Bubbles' head the first time he encountered Stitch?

He's trying to conduct a home visit. It's not going well. The last visit didn't go well. It's becoming more and more clear that he's probably going to have to separate this little girl from her only living relative, which he doesn't want to do. Nani's not helping her own case, and he's coming down pretty hard on her. And then suddenly this bizarre little blue creature pops up and flings a heavy book directly at his face. The sisters insist it's a dog, but it doesn't look, sound, or behave like any dog.

The thing is, Agent Bubbles knows about aliens. He knows for a fact that intelligent extraterrestrial life exists and that it knows about Earth. And yet he doesn't challenge the idea that Stitch is a dog or try to either immediately remove Lilo or demand that Stitch be sent away. He does specifically tell Lilo that the next time he sees Stitch he expects Stitch to be "a model citizen." Not under control or well trained, a model citizen.

Is he hoping that Stitch is a solution here? That this alien creature that, arguably, attacked him in defense of the Pelekai sisters, might represent a useful element of their support system if better socialized?

Hi! I hope you're having a wonderful day. I saw your Asexual Mew pride flag art, and I was wondering could I post it to my Bluesky with full credit to you and links back to your page? I'm discovering my own asexuality, and it would make my happy to add it to my post. No worries if you'd prefer me not to though!

Hiya, sorry for the delay. I'm very honored that you would ask me this, and it actually reminded me that i was in the middle of moving my twitter account over to bluesky.

I don't have all my art there yet, but I've now posted the ace mew, so it's ready to be shared!

to everyone who's ask has sat unanswered in my inbox i am wishing you a very I Am Sorry But I Am Understaffed. Also I'm An Idiot

i feel like we as a digital society have forgotten the important rules of the internet

Don't feed the trolls

Never give out personal information

Anonymity is the best defense

Don't click suspicious links

Don't click popups and ads

Just because it's written doesn't mean it's true

You are responsible for your own experience

There is porn of everything, act accordingly

(NEW?) TUMBLR TAGGING PSA:

heads up, folks! it looks like - EVEN AND ESPECIALLY ON YOUR CUSTOM BLOG VIEW!!! - tumblr only counts the first twenty tags! on a post! after this, the post won't show up in that tag, not even on your blog

so if you have a personal art tag but you put it at the bottom of the post under all of the #switch #nintendo #mario #bros #64 etc etc etc bloat tags, it doesn't work.

please put your most relevant tags first! having an art tag that doesn't have all your art posts in it is basically useless, after all

there used to be a saying that tumblr search only counted the first five tags on a post, which is why crosstagging for reach was pointless. tumblr has since updated to count twenty tags - at a cost. any tags after #20 apparently do not show up in that tag on your own blog.

i found this out because i was looking at someone's cool mario 64 art project, and because they put the tag for the project at the very bottom of their tags, the final post NEVER showed up in their tag for the project when i was browsing it ON THEIR BLOG (very different tumblr behavior than it used to be years ago!). i did finally stumble on the final post of the project, thankfully, and realizing what happend, i started counting. tumblr counts the first 20 tags, but tag #21 and all after are useless.

psa!

This made me get up and check my own english copy of the demigod files, which cause i live in europe and it's bought locally is the uk version, and sure enough there it is.

It's worth mentioning that this book was also heavily branded for the release of the movie with the cover being a movie poster (if you'll excuse the tatterdness of my book):

and more character posters inexplicably inserted into the middle of it:

(and yes, it does bother me how they break up the stoll interview)

which thus begs the question of whether "The Inner Circle" might've been added as part of the movie branding?

TA server uncovered a very interesting mystery today:

So, the UK pdf of Demigod Files (or at least the one I have) has this section right at the beginning called "The Inner Circle!" with brief descriptions about characters. The formatting on my pdf for it is a little wonky. Interestingly, the information in it is slightly off - it says Annabeth is 13 and a half while Tyson is 14, but this shouldn't be the case as Annabeth is older than Percy and Percy and Tyson were in the same grade, so Tyson and Percy should be the same age. Also, this book was 2010, with more of a focus on approximate BoTL timeline, so why the descriptions are more focused on SoM timeline there is strange.

Anyways, the important part of this section is this, where the claim that Annabeth is 5'11" comes from:

(We will casually ignore for now that almost no 13 year old is 179cm/5'10." And also that it is 5'10" not 5'11". But i digress)

BUT, THE PLOT THICKENS:

So I had previously gone searching for this alleged information that Annabeth is 5'11" and could not find it in a single one of my books. When presented with this part of the PDF, i went to double-check my physical copy of the Demigod Files (US version) and sure enough! The "Inner Circle" section does not exist! It's not in the table of contents and it's not anywhere in the book, at least in my copy.

So where the heck did this section come from and why? Who wrote it (cause there's no notable translation credits)? When was it added? Why is it only in some versions but not others? What do other translations say?
