the fact that shakespeare was a playwright is sometimes so funny to me. just the concept of the "greatest writer of the English language" being a random 450-year-old entertainer, a 16th cent pop cultural sensation (thanks in large part to puns & dirty jokes & verbiage & a long-running appeal to commoners). and his work was made to be watched not read, but in the classroom teachers just hand us his scripts and say "that's literature"

just...imagine it's 2450 A.D. and English Lit students are regularly going into 100k debt writing postdoc theses on The Simpsons screenplays. the original animation hasn't even been preserved, it's literally just scripts and the occasional SDH subtitles.txt. they've been republished more times than the Bible

The amount of people who talk about Japan like it's heaven on earth (or, conversely, the worst place known to man), it feels like they need to see Japan a certain way, so they turn it into whatever they need it to be when it’s just A COUNTRY.

No, no one is getting deported for taking pictures. Yes, you are likely to be deported for smoking weed. The toilets are very fancy! Some of the infrastructure is very much not. Yes, some of the societal norms are stricter in some senses than, say, the US. But there are also a number of people who ignore them and don’t follow the “rules”. One person’s experience in Japan is likely to be completely different from another, depending on where they are, who they are, where they’re from, what they look like, etc.

So if you see a one off tweet about the “wisdom of the Japan” or like “THERE ARE NO PERSONAL FREEDOMS” just remember that it’s just a country, this is likely over exaggerated, and it’s a place that people live in, just like where you live ^_^

Brainy wants Clumsy to kick the smurf ball, but Clumsy has his doubts. Clumsy looks over the signed document about Brainy's promise to not pull the ball away. After some thought, Clumsy gets ready to kick that ball. This time, he trips over the ball instead of kicking it. Peanuts reference.

I just completed my roughly biannual reread of The Order Of The Stick. The interesting thing about it is that it’s verbose, and it uses that verbosity to achieve things in the narrative that it can only get away with because it’s paired with such a sparse art style. It generally works, but if the verbosity were paired with a more attention-demanding, detail heavy art style, the unnatural stylization of the dialogue’s pacing, the constant fourth wall breaks, and the constant integration of D&D mechanics into the plot and characterization would all be vastly more obtrusive. There’s proof of concept, in the form of some old attempts at page redraws on the Giant-In-The-Playground forums where the better rendering is actively competing for attention with the big blocks of dialogue. It is such a strong example of a work that can only exist in the way that it does.

The other thought I had is that an animated version of OOTS presents basically the only case use imaginable for Adventure Time’s general art style outside of Adventure Time.
