'medley' from Online

lot going on but count binface has been giving me a lot of strength during this time

Made a lowball offer on eBay as a joke and it got accepted. uh oh.

something that i find interesting about independent animation nowadays is that if you don't have studio/streamer backing, you have to release your work yourself on the internet, but you have to do it for free on the internet because virtually nobody is going to be willing to accept a paywall just for one original show, so what you have to do in order to make any money off of it is make all of your money from merchandising, but then this means that you show must be merchandisable and have very toyetic character designs that translate easily to plushies and whatnot, but then you also need to cater your show to people who are disproportionately inclined to buy merchandise like that in the first place so that your sales can be enough to sustain you, which means that even if you want to communicate complex or difficult ideas in your work, your independent animation project must attract (at least on a first impression) and retain viewers who are both very consumerist and very capable of rabid passion, which unfortunately has a single-circle shaped venn diagram with a lot of the most toxic fandom tendencies known to man, and this explains a lot of things about independent animation and its fandoms nowadays I think

never really put together that to be a financially successful artist you need to be appealing to consumers. i always figured you just needed to be a good artist. look, i’m fucking stupid

*turns my attention inwards* mmmmm. no *turns my attention back outwards* oh god

an interest passing feels like being abandoned by the evil spirit that had taken possession of your body

pulling out hanks of grass and sighing listlessly. i kind of miss being posessed. isn't there an evil spirit somewhere that wants to possess meeee

they’re called hanks of grass because they’re green

month starting on a monday we have no excuse guys lets get to work and lock the fuck in

yk its actually very chic and avant garde to start on tuesday the second

many claim theres nothing more subversive and revolutionary than starting on wednesday the third

they don’t say “go thirdth” or “go fifth”, they say “go fo(u)rth” and that might be something to keep in mind with regards to starting the revolution sometime this week
