I'd just like to remind everyone that the lead singer of Toto (of "Africa" fame) also sang the theme song to Disney's Adventures of the Gummi Bears and is also the son of world-renowned film composer, John Williams.

It was somewhere in between due to Walt lying to Hugh about giving him credits on Oswald and Alice. It's more or less why he defected to Mintz, then worked with Schlesinger. It even hit a point where he instructed animators to watch Mickey for reference material on Bosko.

A simpler piece for a lower minimum bid. One more to color so we can get some money to feed some families and give them a bit of Christmas.

I mean, they could've at least had the common decency to picture themselves in a boat on a river....

People literally have to say stupid ass shit like "I would simply not live in the path of an unstoppable natural disaster" because otherwise they would be forced to face the chaos inherent to this world. The idea that everything just happens to you for no reason is too scary for the average person

But I still think it's hopeless. However, I also thought things like social media could be good for me one of these days. Don't listen to me.

Call out the ones hurting everything. But at least be smart. If your industry allowed creeps to begin with, then don't repeat the mistakes.

So..... I guess what I'm saying is do it anyway. But still, be realistic. Nothing's gonna fix the system. But we just make our own. With blackjack.... and the rest of the Futurama bit.

Maybe I am just jaded. Or angry. Or tired. Or a fourth thing. But... I just don't see a point any more. We're so divorced from what art is. Creating. But.... creating is only gonna get us so far.
