The afterlife

Hello welcome my ADHD themed gameshow, "So you were holding it literally moments ago but now it's gone" the where YOU look for whatever you were just holding while going increasingly mad

I'm just trying to get the mood right

Reblog if you didn't notice the missing words

I'm actually really curious what most people would say, reblog to give a bigger sample size!

The Merry Melodies cartoon "Greetings, Bait" about a worm vs. a crab did SUCH an imaginative abstract gag here that really only works with a stalk-eyed character design. It's too bad they never used the crab in anything else.

Oh this really blew up...you can watch the full short here, but I’ve probably already spoiled the best scene, besides the fact that the crab actually wins and beats the shit out of the worm.

This is a good thing, because even though the worm is the star, his “job” is to be fish bait and all the fish he catches for his human “boss” are personified as innocent cartoon animals themselves, which might be why the worm never caught on. The crab is pretty much the hero, and he really should have gone on to be a character himself.

They only find time for a couple other crab-specific gags, but that crumpled drawing joke must have seemed insanely brilliant at the time. What they do manage to do with him really goes to show that the specific animal you choose for a character (cartoon, video game, superhero motif, whatever!) is like a whole suite of unique physical features to get creative with, so it really is too bad people still repeat the old cat, dog, mouse, generic bird routines. I’ve especially always found it kind of unbelievable that octopuses were so underutilized in these old shorts. The creative potential for a recurring cephalopod would’ve been limitless. :(

The way I've already seen uncountable "Netflix is hiring!" Ads. They're really just gonna hire scabs and pretend the WGA strike isn't happening....

This is a reminder to anyone who wants to go into screenwriting. This is not an opportunity to get your foot in the door. Do not take any writing jobs during the strike. This includes freelance or “script editing” jobs.

You will be a scab. Scabs are barred from union membership. By crossing the picket line to get your foot in the door you’ll be burning one of the most important bridges in your life. You will actively be harming your future job prospects.

This strike will end one day. Those writers who are out picketing will reenter the writers room and start producing work with the legal and financial protections and guarantees they’re fighting for, and you will not be among their ranks. You will be a scab. A traitor.

A lack of union membership will harm your prospects job wise. Do not scab. Knowledge of your scabbing, traitorous ways will cost you your ability to make friends in the industry. Do not scab. Support the WGA as they fight for your rights. Do. Not. Scab.
