This is a great time to support people like Olan Rogers who have worked for all the majors and are bucking the system. He funded his latest animated series pilot through kickstarter and is getting funding for the rest of the episodes now. Imagine that: paying creative people in advance and bypassing the corporate bullshit. He’s even left kickstarter behind now to take payments directly. https://godspeedseries.com/

Also with mentioning when Alan Tudyk did the same with Con Man, a comedy tribute to the Firefly fandom that was fan-financed for 2 seasons.

(And there needs to be a better place to release non network shows than YouTube, but that’s a whole other can of worms)

Hey thanks for delivering. You made this a fun thread!

Take a pic from a slightly different angle with a handwritten note with the date, AMA style… Then the Internet will know that these paintings belong to Shave_MyBeever!

Minty green?

Meh, scatters gonna scat. I’m more interested in when space faring future people with vacuum toilets contemplate the origins of the poop knife.

The DarkGPT ages. All knowledge from this time must be questioned.

That’s a 419 when you surprise people with a coffee pot.

Aren’t you worried about your citizenship being revoked?

super nerd, please tell me your reasons involve zero g poop.

also hilarious that the world greatest scientists and engineers settled on “just hold it” before they figured out the poop hoover.
