I still think a lot of that puppetry looks amazing. Pilot is an incredible creation, and Rygel has so much character for being a tiny little sack of rubbery skin. I’ve always been a fan of prosthetics and puppetry over CGI, especially in sci-fi. I want the aliens to have their own texture, not just a different shade…

Farscape had its ups and downs as a series, but it’s aged a lot better than just about any of its peers, and there’s a lesson there: a puppet may look goofy when you film it, but it will look exactly as goofy, no more and no less twenty years later, whereas 20 year old CGI compositing will look like complete and total…

My dad’s always calling me a young offensive guy, too, but it doesn’t seem to help in my job search.

If they get rid…

I’ve been giggling for five minutes over “Kam Chancellorsville”, so thank you for that.

Who can forget Cody Pickett’s Charge, the Battle of Kam Chancellorsville, or the Michael Vicksburg Campaign?

+1 hilariously nightmarish statue of Nathan Bedford Forrest.

To be fair, a good portion of people in the country don’t seem to know what happened during the Civil War, what it was about, who won, or that it’s over.

well I remember going to the first Coachella , had to take a horse buggy to the fairgrounds. But no one will forget when Scott Joplin joined Jelly Roll Morton on stage, one of the greatest moments, and that headlining set by Glenn Miller and his orchestra, one for the ages!

Free yourself, people! I turned my back on my childhood team decades ago, and now I actively root against them. It feels good to watch them suffer.

+130 Potomac pines.

How is it going to get worse? The stadium, Barry, the stadium!

I mean, we have literal evidence that Snyder can’t see the forest for the trees. 

His legend is getting engorged. 

BDN, His legend grows!
