Unfortunately I have had no traction on my Gofundme. It is discouraging. I have many of needs and I don’t know where to start. I really hope the people who can help see me.
Some sad news to share - Eiko Masuyama, the iconic original voice of both Fujiko Mine (Lupin III) and Cutie Honey/Honey Kisaragi (Cutie Honey), has passed away at the age of 89 due to pneumonia. The first voice of Fujiko til she passed on the role to Miyuki Sawashiro, she was the last surviving member of the show's original core cast. A prolific actress in Japan, while many of her roles were in things not released in the US, she was also the voice of Princess Snow Kaguya in Sailor Moon S: The Movie. RIP to a true icon, whose amazing performances will never be forgotten.
I am heartbroken and frothing at the mouth that I have yet to see anyone on Tumblr mentioning the YT animation Bun hunting: overture
You'd think a furry animation inspired by 30-60's cartoons with a lot of fanservice would be popular here (for one reason or another)
It's barely 3 minutes long but I'm IN LOVE
with the animation style. Yeah
I wish I was in the mindspace to talk more about it bc this animation made me happier than I can say rn and it deserved a ramble but anyway
There's just something about seeing the old (obviously(?) Song of the south-inspired) Disney 2D animated style done SO WELL in this era that made me really happy and even so short it seems so cute and promising and all of it is SO WELL DONE
I would give anything for this to be longer but I'm so happy with what we got. I hope Piti Yindee and the team get to do more with it eventually
I recently heard about a 400-year-old tree in a nearby village, which made me want to estimate the age of the big lime tree behind my house. I measured the circumference at my height then divided by Pi to get the diametre then multiplied by the growth factor for this species—and I learnt that my lime tree is about 255-260 years-old! It was born in the 1760s... I also went and measured some of my beech trees and the oldest ones are ~190 years-old, which makes sense as it’s the age of the house. I’m not sure why this lime tree is so much older than all the other trees on this land, but it makes me want to give it a little plaque, maybe one that says “I was 25 years-old during the French revolution.”
