And Done! A Mock Up Poster For Each Ep. Of The Devil's Playhouse (extra Attention Given To 303. Partly

Got the outline so far!

I've always been fascinated by these renders. They're far more expressive than the models used in the final game. Plus, I like how they make Ratchet and Rivet look more cat-like.

Y’all… I used to think that videos on “anti-intellectualism” was a buzzword that a slew of video essayists wanted to use because they disliked “sir this is a wendy’s” type comments, but no they’re not lying. Check out anything related to Kim Kardashian’s “Santa Baby” cover because people are literally refusing to interact with the video in any manner other than saying “who ever made this was on drugs” and some declaring that “there is no art” in the video, apparently because most of them think that Travis Barker or Kim herself made the video, when the first thing the description clearly states that Nadia Lee Cohen directed it 🤦‍♂️

It legitimately looks like a bunch of bots commenting the same thing in there

I started playing helldivers a few days ago and I absolutely love it! Sadly I think the reason why I like it so much, is because it reminds me of playing let’s go jungle

Warning: heavily controversial political opinion ahead

Left wing political figures should wear blue ties and right wing should wear red. I don’t want that to be a rule but it’d be cool if they did it though

The other day, Nicolaï Chauvet aka Méko, original creator of Bunny Maloney/Pinpin le Lapin emailed me! Our email exchange unearthed a lot of interesting behind-the-scenes information about the show and the original flash pilot. I'll post the whole exchange and the photos he sent under the cut, but here's a quick summary.

He's been away from the internet for a while due to a back injury and is currently making a living designing collector's edition DVD box sets.

Bunny Maloney in its final form was intended to be a show for teens and up; he thought that was made clear, but Moonscoop and Kabillion clearly had other plans. He had no idea that the show was ever distributed for younger kids overseas. He received no royalties for the overseas distribution, either.

Pinpin le Lapin was not originally intended as a TV pilot, but after winning an award for it, he decided to alter the tone and presentation into something more workable as a TV program, the initial conception of which is shown in the images below.

He would like to continue the show, but since Moonscoop was dissolved, he's not sure who currently owns the IP and what they plan to do with it, if anything.

"Pinpin le Lapin" became "Bunny Maloney" due to the meddling of, quote, an "army of 40 year old Parisian mothers" who represented Moonscoop's executive board at the time. The name "Bunny Maloney" was chosen because they believed it would be more marketable to an American/English speaking audience. This "Mother's Mafia" is the entire reason that Bunny Maloney was watered down for a younger audience in the first place (although it certainly kept some of its edge).

And then he sent a bunch of pictures from the show's original pitch bible, which I believe has never been made public before!

First email + new Charlotte illustration

Follow up email:

+ unexpected twist that Charlotte was meant to be a sheep all along!

I’m gonna be getting a computer within the next like two months(hopefully, I’m saving up at the minute) anybody have any mincraft mod suggestions?

This kinda looks like the art I just made 😬 😭😭

tysm for introducing me to eartheater!!

The mesmerizing visual aesthetic of the clip "Crushing" by Eartheater

The late 90s vibe of the clip "Crushing" by Eartheater, directed by Andrew Thomas Huang, is reminiscent of cosmetics and fragrance commercials from that era. The music video features decadent mirrored rooms and performance vignettes. The camera work is dynamic : moving constantly, it never reveals a full portrait of the artist until late in the piece, adding a sense of mystery and excitement throughout. Eartheater's clothes, blending futuristic elements with organic designs, accentuate the ethereal, surreal and otherworldy atmosphere of her video.

One of the standing out elements is the symbolism behind Eartheater's interactions with glassware. The latter represents both fragility and transformation. By forming, drinking from and even shattering the glass with her voice, Eartheater explores the themes of vulnerability, consumption and the breaking of barriers.

The lyrics of the song evoke the opposite ideas of destruction and creation, with lines like "You're the flame melting sand into glass" and "You're the glass holding the wine." The glass symbolizes the process of change and the dualism of beauty and destruction.

When Eartheater shatters the glass with her voice, she shows how something beautiful (like glass or a powerful vocal performance) can lead to destruction. The beauty of art and life is associated with the construction of glass, meant to be fragile and breakable. This powerful visual metaphor highlights the ephemeral nature of beauty. Surprisingly, the artist rather sees destruction as a renewal than a downfall because its cathartic power enables new forms of beauty to emerge and transformation to happen.

The way Eartheater uses her voice to break the glass epitomizes both the breaking of barriers and the creation of beauty from destruction. This impressive display of her vocal range and artistic vision leaves a lasting impact long after the song ends.

Here is Eartheater's Crushing BTS Instagram post, giving fans a glimpse into the creative process and the artistry that went into the production of the clip. By sharing it, the artist provides transparency and allows them to appreciate her hard work, creating a deeper connection with her audience.

Is it bad that I want the rideable ghasts to look miserable
