That wasn't about the Steven Universe background. I was talking about TAZ becoming a popular subject for fan art, which often becomes Serious Business (to hilarious effect) for a lot of people.

TAZ has been a popular fan art subject for literally two years now, it's not like it's a new development.

I'm anxious about what happens if someone retweets a piece of fan art that doesn't support someone else's headcanon/ship/etc. People can get fixated on fantasy stories that present a "progressive" worldview, and can get irrationally upset when they're not progressive in the precise way they want. Edit: The plots don't support the worst of it, I suppose, but still and all... people can be terrible.

I don't really think the Adventure Zone fandom is big enough for that to be an issue.

Nothing happens because the actual people in question generally like seeing multiple interpretations of characters instead of this imaginary hateful poo poo that y'all are assuming they do! Like I've been following the adventure zone tag on tumblr for a year or so now because I like the art people make for it and I've never once seen people be lovely about things like that -- hell, there's a charity fundraising campaign going on right now for a TAZ zine with a bunch of different people's takes on characters/events/scenes that looks really cool: http://theadventurezine.tumblr.com/ Turns out that just because people like scudworth are gleefully fantasizing about that sort of thing doesn't mean it's really happening

That said, I hope their speculation doesn't become reality, and I'm pretty sure it won't. The TAZ fanart community is really cool from what I've seen. The NV fanart community always did seem a bit rabid even from the beginning. Ariong fucked around with this message at 03:58 on Aug 30, 2016 |

When I was visiting my parents last weekend I was watching Car Boys on my laptop. My mom, who has not played a video game since Ms. Pac-Man and hasn't watched an internet video since Charlie Bit My Finger, stopped to watch and started cracking up. She told me that "those are the funniest boys I've ever heard" and now she is watching Car Boys on her own. Car Boys rules.

I enjoy YouTube and podcast-style content where it's real humans having a fun time. I also enjoy TV series and movies where there's a more polished style. Car Boys is good YouTube-ing.

Yeah I can see how somebody would not get down on car boys. The majority of the comedy is coming from the game itself, so if that's not your thing then it's going to fall flat. Can we maybe agree to not jump down people's throats for saying they don't like a thing we like? EDIT: Oh my god I thought people didn't like spore because it didn't deliver on its creators' promises, but it really just isn't a very good game, huh?

The last episode of MF made me go, "Hey, I almost want to mess around with Spore again." Then I saw it was still like forty loving dollars and said "gently caress no." This new episode is making me feel pretty good about that decision!

Relistening to the eleventh hour really reminds me just how loving good this show is. I'm going to miss our boiz when we move on to the next campaign. Griffin's really gotten good at this, too, I wonder if Travis is nervous at all about following it up.  Clint said he wanted to do a superhero-based campaign, too, and I can't even loving imagine what he'd be like in the driver's seat.
