Okay, I won't pretend I knew anything about this blog before today, but thanks to FARK, it is now my favorite.


Please, please, please, go read Hyperbole and a Half. For your own good.

Good Indeed

Well, I've forgotten to give love to one of my eldest favorites. Responsible for "We Like the Moon" (Spongmonkeys) and "Viking Kittens" among other things, the lovely limey Joel Veitch behind rathergood.com is also responsible for considerable damage.


...aaand EdII is in the shop, so I'm working on a PC. D:<

B'awwwwww

Another reason to love the Internet beyond access to foreign shows and classics: access to student work. Long ago in, say, the 80s, the only cartoons we ever got to see were the ones on Saturday mornings. If you were lucky, your parents had cable, and you could watch Nickelodeon shows any day of the week. A Disney flick would come out once or twice a year, and then you could watch that. But nobody put out their shorts, their concept pieces, their student projects and pitches. There is perfectly good animation out there -- sometimes profoundly GREAT animation -- that never reaches an audience outside of a dozen students in animation school.


The Internet gives us a view to anywhere. :3

CCCP

Damnit, Russia. You and your vintage animations. If it weren't for the Internet, we would all be safe from the adorable but somewhat racist adventure of a little boat. Or a young girl's psychosis brought on by a clear lack of social interaction at home. But no, you had to put them up on YouTube and share them with the West.

Chunga chunga.

Fuck Yeah Seaking










I cannot understand why this amuses me so much.
