Step into the unknown 🍂

[ridiculouslyaverageguy]

During the production of Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!, Mystery Inc. was envisioned as five humans and a dog. But the final guy, described as a rich, snooty hipster (seemingly based on Milton from Dobie Gillis) was cut from the show. This is apparently due to Scooby gaining more prominence as the show was being made, to the point of being turned into the protagonist.

The above images come from Van Partible, the creator of Johnny Bravo. They are two of several, physical drawings that he got his hands on while working at Hanna Barbera.

This character was likely Mike Andrews mentioned in the initial pitch. (Geoff, Kelly, Linda, and W.W. are Fred, Daphne, Velma, and Shaggy respectively)

Okay but can we talk about the Accidental Hetero Couple as an audience surrogate for a second? The show really said, "hello traditional heterosexual monogamous guests of The Odyssey. I see you came aboard without a full understanding of what you're getting into. You're welcome to leave, but actually we'd love it if you stayed." and this couple really went "you know what, yeah! Even if this is different to what we're used to, at the end of the day, this is a boat full of people living their lives the way we're trying to live ours, and what's so incompatible about that?" Because maybe to the general public, stepping into a slowburn polyship feels a lot like accidentally booking a stay on a Gay Themed cruise. It's just not what they went into this expecting. But like our Resident Straight Couple, they can still have a good time here, and still appreciate the people they're on this boat with, even if, when their time together is up, their lives aren't likely to intersect again

Sis coped too close to the sun now look what happened smh. What have we learned, class? Don't get uppity about ship dynamics, it might come back 'round to bite you.

Rewatching Gumball is knowing that while there is no actual real overarching plot the episodes are still so amazingly interconnected.

I love how they do foreshadowing, how they build on little moments that we see through out other episodes. It's Banana joe's mom's future paintings being a small joke in "The Shell". Rob being in the deleted place with all the forgotten things in "The Void" after we see that Gumball and Darwin have a hard time remembering him and then completely forget him once Darwin kicks him into the sewers a whole season earlier in "The Pony". He then literally still has parts of the void ingrained in his design when he comes back. It's the fact that Penny and her family being hollow shells with something inside was being played as haunting jokes for episodes before the one based entirely around it. It's the fact that characters like Sarah have always been a little fourth wall breaky and so an episode like "The Fan Fiction" is so completely in line with her character that it's unremarkable in context, hell there's an episode where she sings the ending song to end the show and avoid an awkward conversation her being able to take some control of the show feels like the natural evolution of that.

The background characters in gumball have such distinct personalities that have been pretty consistent and built upon since season 2 which is completely insane and unprecedented for an episodic 2010 children's cartoon. The show might not have had an arc but it has always been continuous.

You do really get the sense that this is a world where everyone is very hyper-aware of the rules in which they operate. The show might reset at the end of the episode but the people don't

anyway i think networking is classist and ableist and should Not be the cornerstone of every single working industry

Networking oftentimes requires paying for something, whether it be an event fee, or even just lunch/dinner/drinks/coffee with someone where you may or may not be expected to pay, not to mention having the financial means and physical ability to get to the place in question (whether by driving, walking, public transit, rideshare, etc.) and the act of networking itself can be especially difficult for neurodivergent people who might have difficulty interacting with people, overstimulation in crowded, public environments, or just general social anxiety

Perihelion having an Even Worse Time

(This drawing is based on how the infection manifested physically for TargetControlSystem and how it might feel to be entangled and infected by it - much more abstract but it’s meant to convey the feeling of something so massive being trapped so thoroughly)

The bad guys will have a hard time: scientist from Yemen (Hashem Al-Ghaili) have announced the concept of a prison of the future using neural networks.

Inside Cognify there will be special AI capsules that will retrain the prisoner's brain with false memories generated by neural networks.

As a result, society will receive reprogrammed people who will respect the law.

Yuichiro Hikari grief was immaculately big that he challenged death itself, held his dying son, transmitted his soul somehow on the net, only to give it to his twin, now that they're inseparable.

You see? he played God, and faced no consequences, like at all.
