If you’ve watched TADC tonight or at any point before it is available on YouTube, DO NOT SHARE/SPREAD SPOILERS!
You can discuss with people who have seen it (I literally sent the equivalent of a short film to my friend via Snapchat after we both saw it - with time zone differences). You can share your rating on like Letterbox or other sites (I did).
Jake’s Mind Palace (formerly The Glad in Gladiator) needs more hype tbh.
Absolutely loved finding this channel from his Teacher’s Pet video! Jake’s newest videos on ‘The Wild Thornberrys” are sooo good and I honestly love finding someone who likes and makes (long) videos about the shows and movies I loved but never hear anyone talk about.
I wanted to try and come up with aged up designs for his take on a reboot (make sure to watch the vids and catch his thoughts at the end of part 2). I honestly dig the idea and want to try seeing what the rest of the Thornberrys could look like 👀
The vids are linked here for you to check out! See it as a little stepping stone to get to Jake’s Mind Palace and do a cheeky little subscribe ✌️
Fuck it at this point can y’all actually start supporting indie animation and indie games made by black artists/creators because I’m really getting sick and tired of everyone hyping these racist phase mediocre white people that get 90% of their humor from 2000s newgrounds animations
For the people asking “How am I supposed to find them?” Look them up, it’s that easy.
Here is an entire youtube playlist by Mannof1000Thoughts with a ton of indie animation videos AND a livestream he did where he watched some with the creators!!!

For games, there are TONS of lists out there like these:
In celebration of Black History Month, here's a roundup of games made by black developers that should be on your radar.
The MIX is celebrating Black game developers by hosting a stream to talk organically about game development from the Black perspective.
Oh I deadass forgot to mention I went to C2E2 again after SIX YEARS 🥲 there’s no way I’ve been out of college five years wtf
Shout out to the best Sci-Fi duo:
Mulder and Twoey 👽🪴
Oh wait I realize I can post my whole rambling that was too long for IG 👀 I’ll share my haul in a repost and you’ll be able to see the comparison between my friend’s photography skills and my own 😅
By far one of the greatest moments of my life! I’ve been to cons before — I’ve even been to C2E2. But this year I finally got THE con experience! I may have come out of it battered and bruised due to my homemade Audrey 2, but it was the star of the day. So many people were in awe of this thing, and a few wanted to take my picture, EVEN BEFORE THEY KNEW IT WAS A PUPPET THAT I COULD MOVE! I’ve never felt such an ego boost in my whole life, nevertheless the amount of joy I don’t think I’ve EVER felt.
And it kept getting better?
Walking through artist alley is a must. Unfortunately for my wallet, I bought A LOT more than I was expecting. It didn’t matter because everyone was so nice and we had such nice little chats!
Two moments in particular absolutely stunned me to my core. First, I had spotted one of the queens of Halloween Jill Thompson at her own ‘Scary Godmother’ booth. It took a lot of guts, but social anxiety be damned! Not only did I have lovely conversations with the two lovely individuals at that booth, but I mustered the courage to ask for a photo AND BOY DID I GET SO MUCH MORE! It was an honor to spend the most money at that booth, especially because um . . .hello??? Scary Godmother is the best! The two specials have always held a place in my heart, and now I have an official book with more stories AND more scenes and details from the specials! Come on man we gotta get on this. At least another special to finish THE TRILOGY OF JIMMY! Such an absolute delight. Thank you, Jill Thompson 🧡🖤
Secondly, but certainly not least. . .ly, I had wondered over to the booth of none other than Guy Gilchrist! I was going to look around and purchase a few items — The Gonzo ‘Whatever’ button was a must have IYKYK. But when I made it to the man himself to sign my print, he just seemed so elated! Taking a liking to my plant, he asked ME for a picture! If my soul didn’t leave my body before, surely it was up in the rafters now. Guy Gilchrist gave me such an empowering conversation about trying and failing yet learning from the mistakes and trying again. That in order to have experience, of course you’ll start with no experience (I’m paraphrasing due being on the verge of tears). What an absolutely unbelievable experience! Thank you, Guy Gilchrist. 💚
To end the glamorous, emotionally uplifting event, I was serenaded by Chicago’s own Mandalörtian (EVERYONE LOVES LITTLE SHOP) We had been searching for him like we were going shiny hunting, but we finally found him just in time — the ‘time’ being right before my body was about to shut down from all the hype and excruciating physical demands of my DIY. What a chill and cool dude with VERY good musical taste.
I cannot thank @shelbyshaper-art enough for literally everything (and this isn’t even half of her gracious and thoughtful friendship vacation highlights)! Shelby was my hands, my legs, and my support throughout that whole day. I couldn’t have had such a great time without her. Thank you so much for the invite 🫶
