I take a look at animated holiday specials featuring LGBTQ characters, from "The Loud House" to the "Rugrats" reboot.
I look at the 10 highest-grossing animated movies starring people of color, from "Coco" to "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse."
For the first time, streaming service viewing has eclipsed that of cable TV. I also take a look at which services will survive the "streaming wars."
Hmm... well, Tumblr *is* supposed to be adding ActivityPub support, which would let it work with the Twitter-like Mastodon. So however it's implemented, that might be Twitter-like enough? Plus it'd be a big boon for Mastodon/ActivityPub/the "fediverse", as it'd be easier to get into it via just using Tumblr?
I keep saying: If Tumblr added a Twitter-like sidebar they would render every other social media platform not supported as a loss-leader for Nazis extinct in a month.
The reason given for these actions is cost-cutting: a tax break available in mergers for writing off incomplete projects (like Batgirl), and savings on residual payments for the cast and creators of series. God forbid the artists make a few crumbs! Meanwhile, the CEO’s compensation package in 2021 alone was valued at $241 million. This is capitalism at its most absurdly cannibalistic, of profits based on destruction.

I’m still enjoying playing MultiVersus. My favorite go-to characters are Taz and Garnet, plus secondary use of Superman, Bugs Bunny, Reindog, and Velma.
I look at how the world’s most popular sport is portrayed in cartoons, from dismissive (”The Simpsons”) to the centerpiece of the whole show (”Supa Strikas”).
A look at "The Real Ghostbusters," plus its short-lived spinoff “Extreme Ghostbusters.”
For the few people following me (or actually reading my blog), I thought I'd ask: is there anything you'd like to see me write more about?
Last month I drew a new Supergirl and/or Batgirl related piece of art everyday based on the official Inktober prompts. I called it SuperBatober! Here are the first six.
Day 0: INTRO Day 1: GARGOYLE Day 2: SCURRY Day 3: BAT Day 4: SCALLOP Day 5: FLAME Day 6: BOUQUET
The originals of these are up for bid in my eBay store right now! (Intro and Bat will be in my Patreon).
A look at different ways to block Twitter trolls in bulk, as well as more nuanced blocking approaches, using third-party tools.
