Current WIP: I’m hoping to animate a bit of motion into the scene, and add some windmills. Everything takes longer with a baby around but I figured I’d post some proof of life

As lovely as masks are, I want as many people vaxxed as possible while we can still get it at all
Calvin and Hobbes is also a completely new read when your on the parent side 🤪
They do look cool tho
You think he’ll actually be booted? My hopes for any salvation keeps getting dashed it would be nice to feel optimism about something again
I thought it was gonna be like she becomes more human as the night goes on bc sometimes I feel like a rock blob and girls night can be healing lmao
😂 I just said he was a muppet and left it at that
Questions from 5 y o: is Grover a mammal?
“Squash” sexism not bugs! 🐛 🐞 💪 lol
Dude my BIL who friggin loves LLMs made this argument when I paralleled using it to fascism. They really think it’s sentient? Or close to it?
I mean the maga crowd will grab onto it as the excuse now 😩
Oh no
Oh my god
Holy shit
I hope I can be this for my son his whole life
KITTIEEEZ
There were a lot of people who I mostly agreed with on politics who were like, “well at least he wants to get rid of red dye 5!” “C.D.C. would never allow vaccines to be cancelled” Wellp. Hope it was worth it.
I’m this way about the animation process lol. But I love it! But I hate slogging myself through the process sometimes 🫠
I mean that sounds like a list
Oh! It was this guy btw maybe if someone can afford his art I helped in some small way: imaginativerealism.com/artists/laur...
Me: ugh I have had no time to draw or work on personal projects. Also me: how much would it cost to get into steel sculpting?
A smart watch that alerts you when you are continuing generational trauma
The Gaza Strip punchline omg 😬😂
This was over 15 years ago btw. I’m haunted by this memory especially when I’m painting backgrounds 🫣
Everyone was looking at me when I looked up, a person who 100% hates being perceived. I felt soo awful, for multitudes of reasons. I said I was talking about something else because the situation felt unexplainable, and I’m sure it wasn’t convincing. Sorry dude. The demos WERE awesome.
so I was kind of hoping he wouldn’t do one this time. But he pulled out the old projector and I turned to my friend next to me (who knew my deal) and was like “oh noo!” As I put my head down- and was totally un aware of the volume of my voice. The class went dead silent. When I looked up
In college, one of my professors would do these awesome background design paint demos on the projector. However. One time I had pulled a stupid all-nighter trying to finish something, and I was just trying to make it through the day, and I was afraid if he turned the lights off I would fall asleep:
It was really scary there for a while, she was clearly in so much pain at one point, she was pacing and whining a couple nights. At another point her energy dropped and she was barely eating, I didn’t know what to do ☹️ I am so glad she’s finally on the mend, she’s only 8 and normally high energy
*very. We also have like 4 recorders up there because people who must hate us keep gifting them
Yes it sounded be try familiar 😂
Not sure if it’s a similar situation but the top of our fridge is basically bursting with stuff we’ve confiscated from our 5 y o lol
Omggggggggg
Please aren’t people tired of the Clinton’s yet 😭
lol this reminded me of a past cat, when she was a kitten I used to lift her butt up with her tail while she ate because she was so tiny and cute, and it became such a thing even as an adult she wouldn’t eat unless I lifted her butt up by her tail lmao, shed be purring & eating 🥹
I really love “he’s large” 😂😂
My first time was the dead bear video and that was an experience
Pretty sure my dog got a nasty bite from one at the beginning of the summer 😰 she had a bump, then a wound that kept getting deeper/worse, and got really infected 😩 our vet didn’t recognize it. We finally got her on the right meds and she’s improving after 2 months but yeah - uh watch out yall
Do young people not share that opinion about touchscreens in cars?
Yeah wasn’t sure. We were all on ebaumsworld I think back then
Yall know you can just buy this? It feels so dangerous? Like that’s too much power, we’ve gone too close to the sun
Wow lol
No I just checked that was 2007 lol
Like the “muffins” video on early YouTube?
I have a friend who’s been with her bf as long as I’ve been w my husband, 17 years, and I’ve known her since we were 12, shes never wanted marriage. So they are very happy. If it works for you that’s all that matters
Our 5 year old is brilliant at piano, but clearly struggles focusing to practice some days. So we weren’t really sure how it would go when we signed him up for a recital. My husband thought he might not be ready, but I had faith he would shine; and he did! Idk similar manifesting lol
Oh damn I haven’t watched that in a hot minute. When I was little my dad read us the book too. I don’t remember it being so fucked but it makes sense that it affected my psyche anyway 🫠
Like nothing has made me more aware that we are just mammals /animals
Everything about motherhood (esp pregnancy /newborn stage) is really weird body horror and feels fake idk
God my kid is 5 and I’m not looking forward to the time coming when I need to figure this all out 😩
Like. That’s not ok tho
Dammit Bobby (*not affectionately)
Haha the only way I get things done is I don’t realize/forget how long things take
Oh my birthdays around then, I know what to do when it’s candle time
I mean I read it is now the most watched MOVIE on Netflix of all time so
Our 5 y o made our bed and his own recently without ever having been asked 🤷♀️ maybe it’s a big brother thing
This is amazing!!
Maybe next time
Idk why I keep getting my hopes up! Gravestones or handcuffs, till then I need to stay out of it lol
Cool cool cool
Heck I’ll do it if he’s dead ong
Guys my hope is starting to get up and I don’t want that unless it’s confirmed
Wait is he dead
Dude Common Side Effects goes so hard against the pharmaceutical industrial complex I felt surprised it was allowed to be made lol. Yes some of it was over the top and, well, a cartoon but there were some real icky truths in there about capitalism, healthcare for profit, etc
My mom still has a corded phone… but, it has buttons, doesn’t have a dial lol
Oh that IS good!!
We didn’t do fuck all did we
Sooo real. I barely even talk about anything there cause people are so ready to jump down your throat. And it’s like. Family 🫠
Oh, me!
One of my Jewish friends - who also doesn’t like trump btw- was highly offended when I compared him to Hitler (I’m still confused by this)
I’ve written on a lot of his paperwork we suspect ours has adhd cause. Well. Apple and tree here
Felt like a hot mess at kindergarten orientation bc we didn’t realize we were supposed to bring his supplies to be there ahead of time. Husband texted a dad friend that was in a different class; he hadn’t realized he needed to bring his whole kid 😂
Clinging to mine from 2017 for dear life
It reminds me of the set of “a matter of life and death”
Should we invest in more human made animations???? No I bet one million dollars a “live adaptation” is announced within 5 years
My dog built an llm data center I can’t stop her
I think I would print and frame this
This coulda been us 😭
Imagine increasing respect for animation as a medium! 🤡
Yep he’s deep in creative play pretend now. But you know, every so often ask about dead relatives. “How old will I be when I die?” Stuff that gets real tricky to answer
Yes.
Congratulations!! Our hospital room a/c wasn’t working and it was like 80 degrees during the day so it was like literally impossible to nap and then they wake you up in the night to jab and test for stuff so I also slept horribly while there 😅
My five year old says stuff like this. They are starting to question mortality at these ages 😭
Wait wtf
Louis sachar does not miss
So real
I hate prepping and cooking and would eat way worse if my husband didn’t do most of that
Bruh
Their name is Starbuck? I really thought this was an onion thing
Also no money (at least me 🫠)
“Single issue” and it’s whether you live or die 🧐
Ai pictures like this always make my teeth hurt for some reason
Is there a real like long term solution for preventing this kind of shit though. It feels like endless cycles of shitty evil rich people ruining everything throughout the history of humanity. Idk i might be in another doom spiral
lol lmao, even
REAL THO
Omg one time a friend took in a stray that had kittens I would just go there and marinate in kittens like once a week for months 😻
Sometimes you just gotta put your whole face in a kitty’s belly
I think this is also the only way I get anything done is I have no idea how hard it’ll actually be! I haven’t fully finished animating my own short film but I did write and storyboard all of it and make a pitch Bible. And animated about 30% so far!
That’s actually really interesting
Dude. I might be super oblivious but I literally didn’t even think about him being gay really the first time I watched. He is not stereotypically flamboyant at all, he could easily be read as like. Just British lol. Maybe ace?
