The way that my body gets overwhelmed and hits the power down button and then I literally sleep for 12 hours at a time out of nowhere

Happy Juneteenth! We're working on getting everything in order for a Kickstarter because #indieanimation cannot happen without ya'll.

These days it's, "fuck you, on an ancestral level", to so many things.

A new episode of KYA has arrived! Bre & Way explore today’s gaming scene with visiting the latest remakes like Silent Hill 2 & key Black Youtubers. We also discuss Marlon Riggs, a LGBTQ+ filmmaker, OMG Yes the adult swim show & Black Animation essentialism! Check us out in our bio- see ya there 🌈✨

Having Hollywood pull back on LGBTQ storytelling at this critical inflection point is a recipe for disaster for our community. We’re seeing a growing threat against our community, and it has to do with this anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, and the antidote to that rhetoric is storytelling. (1/2)

Remember this iconic photo from Ferguson? This is Edward Crawford, throwing back a tear gas canister to protect some nearby kids. Like many identified Ferguson protesters and organizers, he was "found dead" a couple years later and neither the cops nor the media will ever investigate.

Trying and failing to come up with the right words to describe what we are witnessing unfold in LA right now. Your resistance is here, support them

Absolutely ADORE Luci’s design! Happy Pride everybody ⋆⁺₊⋆ #hazbinhotel

With you in spirit, LA. ❤️ from Portugal.

Federal immigration agents in riot gear squared off with hundreds of protesters for a second consecutive day on Saturday in Los Angeles County, filling streets with tear gas and smoke. nyti.ms/4kUON0y

David Archuleta at World Pride

The characters of Poison Us would be way too excited to attend World Pride in DC this weekend, ready to see Doechii and RuPaul! (Would be wild if we could get them on the show one day) #PrideMonth #WorldPride2025 #LoveisLove #PoisonUs #RepresentationMatters #AnimationNews

With problems like these, it any surprise that there is a significant gap when it comes to authentic, diverse, and inclusive animated content? Especially for "people of color, women, and nonbinary individuals. FWDIO Studios hopes to put a dent in that #FutureofAnimation #AnimationNews

Emailing people back suuuuucks sometimes. The business part of a business is hard

Built by queer creators of color, this studio strives to tell inclusive original stories that go beyond our labels. POISON US's pilot is one of those. What kind of stories do you crave? #FWDIOStudios #PoisonUs #QueerCreators #BIPOCinAnimation #indieanimation #RepresentationMatters #AdultAnimation

PRETTY

This headline reads so sarcastic stg

Atez cooked here

How I've felt today.

WATCH: “You’re killing poor kids in Gaza — and paying for it by cutting Medicaid for kids here.” Ben & Jerry’s co-founder Ben Cohen confronted RFK Jr. and Congress in protest.

Want a preview for Indie Animation Day?

Weird thing I like: After cooking bacon, chopping up a whole sweet onion (and maybe some garlic), frying it up, and eating the whole thing Yup

HELLAVERSE REMIX: CHAOS COLLECTION archiveofourown.org/collections/... There was definite interest in remixes, but based off of the responses I've gotten, I've settled on creating an open collection. More info at the link, but I'll include the basics in a thread below. 🧵(1/5)

🎉 THE KICKSTARTER IS OVER!! We got 120% FUNDED!! 🎉 I still can't believe it, and I can't thank you enough. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for believing in us in a time where LGBTQ+ rights are being threatened the most and educational animation is getting defunded. We'll do our best 💛

Apparently this needs to be said but you are ABSOLUTELY allowed to have a sexual preference with genitals. And nobody should be shamed for their preferences. HOWEVER, a persons identity is NOT dependent on whether or not you want to fuck them.

Wow! There is so much indie animation out there. I remember There she is! used to be one of my favorites back in the day. I still love the music and storyline!

THE WITCHES (and Oleander) ARE BACK and they’re out in the garden

How many awesome pilots haven’t seen the light of day? How many more Shakespeares of animators and writers could we have had?
