My sister hates both of these characters - her husband, on the other hand, adores them both. The Venn diagram of the people who like these characters is just a circle.

I'm an Astarion girlie thru and thru. Never played FF cause I just can't get into it.

I've just seen some FF clips and youtube videos. I like some characters. I do keep hearing about how the fandom is very negative now. A few years back it was like therapy for WoW players.

This has not been able to leave my mind for the past few days.

So I haven’t seen the Barbie Movie, but I want to. I’ve seen trailers and commercials and such. Recently, I saw the Rushmore monument with the horses instead of presidents*. There was something just suuuuper uncanny that gave me a feeling that’s hard to describe. The real monument is already creepy enough to begin with, and granted horses are much better and deserving of a monument than some of those presidents. But part of what freaks me out I guess it’s so fake in a live action setting, and, that the mountains are copper colored instead of gray. I always found that big sky western part of the US kinda creepy because of all the empty space compared to the gargantuan mountains. When searching for the picture on google, I saw that in Barbieland there is also a copper colored rushmore parody with vintage barbie. Barbieland is so cute and aesthetic and then there’s just this creepy copper series of heads in the background you’d see all the time if you lived there. But again, it’s better than presidents (that were carved on a sacred mountain).

I know it’s weird and probably nonsensical but it just won’t leave my mind lol.

*Edit: Lincoln was obviously an important figure because of the emancipation, sorry I kinda downplayed that. He was still not perfect because he was anti-integration. At the end of the day, nobody should be carved on a mountain without the permission of the people it belongs to. Reading up on the history of it is really sad.

why does the new dora short film look like one of those undertale machinimas
 
I sure wish the neighbors would stop blasting music. Unfortunately, I live in a rural area so that wish is basically impossible

Which Disney streaming is best?

Disney+
Disney-
Disney×
Disney÷

Clearly Disney×. It's the secret side of their streaming service they don't want us to see (aka it's where the entire 20th Century Fox library is hiding). The only way to get there is to sell your soul to Mickey Mouse.

I'm surprised they're still making new Dora the Explorer stuff. First, it was her tween years, then the live-action movie (which I even thought was a Machinima parody because 10 years before that they made a fake trailer for something suspiciously similar, though with more adult humor), and now CGI. There was even a Dora theatrical short shown before Paw Patrol: The Mighty Movie that has this same art style. I suppose she's making a comeback, which doesn't bother me as I'm a dude who's guilty of watching many episodes as a kid.

I sure wish we could stop getting hit by snowballs I live in a rural area as well, and I sort of relate as my neighbor three or four houses down likes to shoot hunting rifles into the woods in his backyard. I'm used to it at this point - and it only happens once every 1-2 weeks - but my dogs freak out whenever it happens and they bark like crazy. Same thing happens with fireworks in the summer. It's not blaring music, but it's still louder than heck.

I got a new computer monitor for Christmas, and was also able to connect my Switch to it with HDMI. It doesn't have speakers, but it does have an audio jack as well as the OLED Switch already having the capability to connect to Bluetooth speakers. I haven't connected my Switch to any TV since moving a bunch of furniture in early November, but maybe this will get me back to playing New Horizons a bit again...

If you want to know the differences, Disney+ is more than just Disney content, Disney- is restricted to Disney’s animated features only, Disney× is just a cash grab service, and Disney÷ is the most polarizing streaming service.
 
i love cold weather but i wish it was warmer so i could bask in the sun (ik that sounds weird.)

That's the worst. I also have neighbors that burn trash all the time. Nothing like smelling that putrid stench.
 
I want to be a nice person and help people, but no one has been snowballed or has any stolen presents. I guess Snek isn't up to their normal antics But then again, I want to savor and bask in the calmness and serenity before it's ruined.
 
I had a dream TBT was doing back-to-back events (somehow a summer event started immediately after the Christmas one??) and it was stressful so in the dream I went to a thread to complain.
 
Captain Underpants is just South Park… but for kids!!!! 🤯🤯🤯🤯

That kind of sums up everything I had to say, but there's a more in depth explanation below.
I started to realize how many similarities there are between them. Captain Underpants is a lot more similar to the first three seasons of South Park though. Both of them were considered tasteless and vulgar and moral guardians parents that didn't appreciate the vulgarity of them tried to get them banned. They're both about kids getting into situations that they don't really want to get into. And despite looking shallow from the outside, there's actually really good lessons hidden underneath all of it. Like for example, the 4th Captain Underpants book is about a scientist named Professor Poopypants, and because of that, when he became a substitute at George and Harold's school, he was immediately made fun of. Then he becomes a supervillain who tries to get the entire world to change their names to something ones that are just as stupid because they pushed him to the edge. On the outside, it sounds stupid (even the name of the book does), but the lesson is a really good one, which is that you shouldn't make fun of people because of their names. In the first Christmas episode of South Park (excluding the Spirit of Christmas shorts, because those are prototype episodes), because Kyle can't do anything on Christmas related since he's Jewish, he comes up with his own mascot for Christmas, Mr. Hankey, which is literally a talking piece of crap. No one else thinks he's real and he ends up getting in trouble because he just looks like a normal piece of crap to everyone else, but it turns out that Kyle didn't make him up, and he ends up being just what everyone in town needs, who are in shambles after they try to remove everything from Christmas that could possibly be considered offensive to anyone. The episode shows how hard it is to be a Jew on Christmas, like the name of the song Kyle sings, since he can't celebrate Christmas and feels left out. The lesson is also a stock aesop pretty basic moral about how Christmas is about family and everything you've ever heard in a Christmas special. The point is that even though it's all covered in crudeness (and in later South Park, offensiveness), there's a good reason to all of it, because it's trying to teach you a lesson. I think the people that wanted to ban either of them are probably people that didn't understand that.

As a last note, I think Captain Underpants as a whole is better than the first three seasons of South Park, but South Park as a whole is better than Captain Underpants. Also the Captain Underpants show on Netflix is pretty cool and if you like the books you should check it out.

I have no interest into watching The Owl House. None. But the way Disney treated the show was atrocious, as it might be one of the worst decisions they made since the firing of Jeffery Katzenburg.

They wouldn’t give the show a fourth season or a full-length third season because “it didn’t fit the brand”. What is wrong with having serialized TV shows on Disney Channel? And if you’re going to exploit Frozen’s popularity to promote more Frozen content and Star Wars’ popularity to promote more Star Wars content, then you have no reason to cancel the Owl House too early.

Here’s some corporate logic:
  • Owl House was more popular and did something new for Disney - gets cancelled early and deemed “unfitting of the brand”.
  • Wish was a critical and commercial failure and did nothing new (which includes having another “quirky and dorky” female protagonist) - gets heavily promoted.
This isn’t good business.
 
In case anyone read my barbie mountain, ramble (not advertising it or anything lol) i included an update ‘cause my wording was a little off in case anyone was hurt by that, I apologize!
 
Loud music and it wasn't even Christmas music...it was Rap. I hate Rap.
At least it's over now.

Also it was a full house with 4 dogs. Which is fine, one of them likes to hang around with me.
