  • Good video. Intelligent, non-nerdcore, rap is hard to come by these days.
  • There's hope for rap yet.
  • Hyper-Realist paintings
    I really wish somebody would combine the photo-realism of that style with some of the aesthetics of surrealism.
    Dali probably came closest.

    Look up M.C. Lars.

    Harder than it should be, but not that hard.

    TOTD: The realization that English speakers aren't the only ones who do fandub openings.

    Note: While Ranma has an official OP dub, it's an exciting thought.

    Update: Kobato in Spanish.

  • NPR did an interview with Isiah Mustaffa, the Old Spice Guy. I almost wish he'd been in character during it, but it was amusing to hear nonetheless.

    Yay! One day I'm hoping to be involved in some capacity in an Ode to Kirhito movie. If done properly and given lots of love, it could be an amazing and powerful movie.

    EDIT: My actual thing of the day is pretty cool in my opinion. 12 Byzantine Rulers host: Lars Brownworth is doing a podcast called Norman Centuries

  • Why Your Female TF2 Character is Dumb.
    A hilarious draw-up of character designs and why some are terrible. All you artists will appreciate this.
  • Pete made me THE BEST BANANA BREAD EVER. Pete, I'm sorry if it is all gone by the time you get home.

    Why did they choose TF2 fan creations when there are actual production games where this is a worse problem.
    Also, isn't TF2 supposed to be a cartoon?

    It is more a critique of people making stupid, impractical character designs for the sake of creating a sexual image, and thinking they're clever about it. Also, there is a large group of artists and 'artists' who have taken the all-male cast of TF2 and gender-swapped them, some far more successfully than others.

  • Ever heard of The Room? Yeah, the Nostalgia Critic did a review of it. Apparently, Tommy Wiseau is a huge dick and is fiercely protective of the copyright of his crappy film. The video that the NC made in response is a glorious thing.

    This MIT student did a REALLY good 3D project where she talked about silhouette and character design. This is the best version of female TF2 characters I have seen, because they are not sexy, but very full of character.

    1940s Sonic: *Old radio voice* Man, those Japs sure know how to swing.
    Also, I now really need to see this movie.

  • Microsoft apparently had a project to let Xbox gamers play against PC gamers, but it got cancelled. Why?
    "I've heard from reliable sources that during the development they brought together the best console gamers to play mediocre PC gamers at the same game... and guess what happened? They pitted console gamers with their "console" controller, against PC gamers with their keyboard and mouse.
    The console players got destroyed every time. So much so that it would be embarrassing to the XBOX team in general had Microsoft launched this initiative."

  • I'm trying to develop a new podcast with some online buddies, and I'm thinking we give ourselves a name that's somewhat TV like, since we talk a lot about TV. I've suggested ones like "No Signal" or "Under Syndication" or "Hazardous Broadcast", but they want to go with "The Podcast Zone" Which I feel is a tad too...lame. Any thoughts?
