“As far as the police report goes, the “matter has been closed,” a spokesperson says. Gaiman’s career, meanwhile, has been marginally affected. A few pending adaptations of his novels and comics have been put on hold or cancelled. But the second season of The Sandman is set to premiere on Netflix this year, as is Anansi Boys on Amazon Prime.”

THAT’s why we should be boycotting him. That’s why we should be pressuring every studio and every actor to stop working with him. We can’t do anything about the judicial part, but his career should not have just been “marginally affected”; it should have crumbled to pieces.

About Lip Flap...

So, Ending 72 of Detective Conan got me thinking about lip flap:

What do I mean by that? Well, in some circles of the AMV-making world, it's maybe viewed as a "sin" to leave lip flaps unedited when there are no audible words. You either cut out the movements entirely, or you sync up the movements to match the lyrics of the song. Lip flap is distracting and immersion breaking.

Yet... this Detective Conan ending—mixing anime and music just like an AMV!—has lots of lip flap. Characters are talking and living and spouting out conversations, and there's no effort at all to hide or remove that. In fact, this sequence was deliberately animated that way.

And it's far from the only Detective Conan example in this vein. Which brings me to my next thought: early episodes of Detective Conan include instances of montages or characters otherwise moving their mouths without sound, but the FUNimation English dub seemingly found this so uncomfortable that words were added in:

Sometimes, I really love this choice! Conan's voice fading into Shinichi's in Episode 39 is one of my all-time favorite moments in the dub. Similarly, Conan's added little "but"s in Episode 32 are adorable.

But I feel like the montage in Episode 37 is weakened by the added dialogue because we didn't need any words to understand the story, and while Episode 42 might be argued to be more compelling and "show don't tell" without Conan's narration, we do miss a fair amount of information from that narration.

Overall, though, I think the changes indicate a cultural difference. Lip flap without audible words is fine for Japanese audiences, but overseas, it's seen as awkward and jarring.

So, is it a "sin" to include unedited lip flap in your AMVs? Well, it probably depends on who you ask!

But personally, my mindset has changed to not at all. I think there are moments where the indication of words can be quite powerful, just like in Detective Conan Ending 72 or the montage in Episode 37. While I mostly try to remove or sync lip flap in my own AMVs, there are also definitely times where I leave it. What's wrong with showing that there was a conversation?

That said... I gotta come clean. One of my first reactions to Ending 72 was to almost cringe at all the lip flap! But then I thought about it some more. While I'm rather inexperienced with making MMVs (Manga Music Videos), ever since I started, I've been a fan of leaving the speech bubbles unedited, text and all—despite the fact that this, similarly, seems to be somewhat of a "sin." I liked providing context, I liked that there were creative things you could do with the dialogue... and hey, is that really so different from leaving in some lip flap from time to time?

In the end, AMV editing is very subjective. Everyone has their own preferences and styles that speak to them, and that's part of what makes the art form so beautiful to me. But Ending 72 made me step back and reconsider some of the "rules" that I'd drilled into my head. Maybe what I've become so used to seeing as a "flaw" can actually be quite powerful in its own right!

UNCOMMON things I've successfully manifested

(things haven't seen many posts about, but are actually quite beneficial)

Shorter and lighter menstrual cycle- went from having 4 day periods to 1.5 to 2 day periods.

Healthy and smooth bowel movement- when I tell you I spend less than 5 minutes on the toilet each time. No huffing or puffing or forcing anything out.

Satisfying orgasms each time I masturbate- this one doesn't really need an explanation

Feeling satisfied after a few bites of food- Even if it's my favorite foods. Pacing myself while i eat and enjoying the food, and not overeating and stuffing my face

from corn's prompt abt everything being scripted:

the dumb thing with the perfume bottle was 100% scripted. it isn't the same bottle Connor gave Riya in s2, the crew just got a replica to use. the network wanted some big dramatic symbolic. thing. or smth so they made Riya and Connor act out those scenes before and after the challenge.

I hate that the only two categories for autism are "self diagnosed" and "professionally diagnosed"

Like, technically, I have not gone through the official autism diagnosis process where a professional sits you in a chair and then decides whether or not to give you their official seal of medical approval, so I'm considered "self diagnosed"

However, that doesn't feel entirely accurate when my preschool teachers were telling my mom that she'd probably want to get me tested when I was three, and all the kids in school my entire life isolated me because I was "weird", and the IEP testing people when I finally got tested were like, "we don't know what's wrong with them exactly but asperger's seems like a safe bet," and every autistic person who knows me has told me they're pretty damn sure I'm autistic too, and my diagnosed sister told me I should seek a diagnosis, and my psychiatrist said "that would explain a lot" when asked what she thought about me potentially being autistic

In light of this, I would like to propose a third catagory: "peer-reviewed"
