Can you tell this dub was recorded in South Carolina, and in 1995?

[sigmaufo]

Allegedly, the Japanese producers enjoyed the English dub so much (especially of Natsumi), that when they recorded the TV series, they showed the English OVA dub to the Japanese actors in order to inspire their acting.

Coastal Carolina didn’t make many English dubs, but those they did make are a treat. Besides You’re Under Arrest, I also enjoy Shinesman and Elf Princess Rane. And many of the same personnel later reformed as another company and did the dub of Miami Guns.

I can’t believe I never realised before this exact moment that the very specific vocal characterisation that’s indelibly burned into the brains of an entire generation of English-speaking nerds as the 90s Anime Dub Voice™ is literally just a Carolina accent.

I’ve never seen this post once in 10 years on this site

@hellsite-hall-of-fame

I’ve never even heard of this before tho??? Wtf??????????

[computationalcalculator]

oh my god, I didn’t think there were any surviving versions of this post left

For those who weren’t around in the Deep Lore times, this is one of the relics of the editable post era. This post has THE SINGLE HIGHEST NOTES of ANY post on this site, bar none, but with more than a dozen variations. Every single post you’ve ever seen with more than 3 million notes has been a different version of this one.

This is the “Dean’s Gym Shorts” post. This is the Flubber post. This is the original “Reblog if you support gay people” post. it was ALL of them. before half the site got nuked, it had even more notes than it has now - at one point, well over 15 million, and that was years ago.

This, with no exaggeration, is the ONE TRUE heritage post

cutting child porn from ao3 is not going to be a ‘slippery slope’ to full blown ‘censorship’, you guys are just pedophiles

[iamnmbr3]

There is no child porn on AO3. That is a false statement perpetuated by pro censorship groups in order to promote their repressive goals. 

Child pornography is pornographic material (images, videos etc) of actual children. That is why it is illegal to produce, transmit, or possess. Because it involves the sexual abuse, assault and exploitation of ACTUAL REAL CHILDREN. 

AO3 is a US website that abides by US law. US law prohibits any involvement whatsoever with child porngraphy -  possession, creation, transmission etc. If there was child pornography on AO3 not only would the website be taken down but everyone involved would be in prison. This has not happened because there is no child pornography on the site. 

There are some fictional stories on AO3 that include fictional sex scenes between fictional characters who are underage. But that is not child porgraphy and is legal. Just the way Game of Thrones has sex scenes involving underage characters but that’s legal because in real life the actors and actresses are all legal adults. It is legal because no actual children are harmed. 

Actual children are harmed though when pro censorship people pull stunts like trying to report AO3 to the FBI for child pornography. While these complaints did not result in any actions against AO3 because there was no child pornography it means that time that could have been used to investigate real claims about real child pornography that put real children in harms way was wasted. And that hurts children.

But these people don’t care about children. They don’t even care about banning fictional subject matter that depicts underage sex. If they did they would be campaigning equally hard against HBO for airing Game of Thrones and George RR Martin for writing A Song of Ice and Fire both of which include underage sex scene as well as other dark subject material like rape. What they really care about it claiming the moral high ground to justify harassment campaigns and censorship of marginalized communities.

bruh don’t hide this in the tags

[thebadchoicemachine]

[ID: Tags reading #what boggles my mind is that there’re very few things happening on ao3 that aren’t also on published fiction #like #why do the fic authors take all the heat /end ID]

[greenekangaroo]

Because we’re easier to reach.

That’s it. That’s the answer. It’s the same reason why smaller queer game devs and artists and musicians get dog piled by their fans and communities. Because there’s reach.

You know your favorite actor isn’t going to care that you hate his character in that new drama.

The fic author who loves that character and writes a ton for him?

You can reach them. You can hurt them. You can make them feel bad.

Accessibility is why.

So I'm stressed as heck and that gives me tummy aches.

I've also been craving sugar way too much - I don't have a sweet tooth.

My tummy is bubbling weirdly right now and there's 10 hours till the deadline.

May the world have mercy on me.

a person online: i hate it when adults act like childish little freaks in public, smh. you’re an adult, you should be able to order your own food without help. get over yourself. also, why are some people, like, waaaaaaay too into the stuff that they like? omg, and the people who CLEARLY can’t even have one (1) normal conversation without acting Weird??? it’s embarrassing, u guys are embarrassing, get help

the same person five seconds later: we gotta remember to love and support the autistic community u guys <3

[literallyaflame]

you know, in hindsight this reminds me of something

when i’m at work, people get mad at me for not hearing them the first few times. like, openly agitated. they’ll assume that i’m stupid, or rude, or careless. sometimes they will indirectly chastise me for ‘not paying attention.’ at which point i say “i’m sorry, i’m hard of hearing. you were on my right side and i’m severely deaf in that ear,” and they go “oh my god i’m so sorry i didn’t know.”

yeah. you didn’t, did you? the only available information you had about me was… that i didn’t hear you say something. the thing you hated enough to comment on was that i couldn’t hear you. you don’t get to backpedal once you find out that i have can’t-hear-well disease. i shouldn’t need to present a diagnosis to expect decency from you

if you attach negative characteristics to “didn’t hear what you said,” that will affect how you treat d/Deaf and hard of hearing people. if you attach negative characteristics like “weird and childish” to utterly harmless and well established autistic traits like “doesn’t make eye contact,” that will affect how you treat autistic people. it’s not rocket science

A while back, I was in a relationship with someone with a connective tissue disorder that presented symptoms similar to severe arthritis, among others. You wouldn’t fucking believe the looks she got when she got out of her car in a handicapped space and wasn’t visibly on crutches, in a wheelchair, etc., and the people who even came up to her to tell her off on a few occasions. Or maybe you would, if you’ve also dealt with a less visible disability.

There does seem to a substantial portion of the population who consider it their business to aggressively punish anyone who steps the slightest bit out of line, unless that person has a form signed and notarized in triplicate proving that they have a legitimate excuse.
