This looks soooooo purty! I love how #IntoTheSpiderverse (one the best #movies EVER) broke #animation out of its ‘Everything looks like #Pixar’ doldrums. Now we get actual feasts for the eyes, like The Mitchells vs the Machines, instead of Even More Realistic Hair™.

More Notes & Asides
A belated #TuneTuesday as yesterday got away from me. The #FunSong theme made me think immediately of my newest #music obsession, #ElectricCallboy and their song We Got The Moves. It’s a song about partying and they don’t take themselves seriously in the least. 20yo me would likely sneer at ‘commercialism’ or some other nonesuch but 50yo me enjoys the hell out of this.
I cracked 2 big nuts regarding the #merch #business I’m working on: 1) using one Affinity template file to create multiple products AND their #mockups, and 2) using #Google Sheets, Docs, and Scripts to create copy for every product (title, categories, tags, & descriptions for each type of merch). Ideally I’d be able to pull the data into #WordPress, but that’s a nut to be cracked at a later date, once I’m done pulling a #BarryHorowitz.
It’s Friday, which means my #adhd brain is tired from the week as I worked a little too long on a couple of days. It’s a lot easier to get distracted on Friday morning and a lot less motivating to get the day going. I try to limit my hours of work per day but I’ve been experimenting with change the last couple of weeks. Maybe it’s worth it to get what I can get done on some days, striking while the iron/hyperfocus is hot? It must all even out in the end. Or this could simply be the result of 3 straight nights of mediocre sleep. #ADHDer #AdultADHD
#TIL that #WordPress’ #Gutenberg block editor has built-in character & word counting abilities – just click on that little blue ℹ️ in a circle icon and voila. I needed to know this info as I’m testing crossposting here from #WP, & that toot should have posted in the time it took me to write this. Gutenberg has been around for over 4y & I managed to forget this existed (thx #adhd 🧠).
O M G this looks emotional and compelling. The first movie blew my mind so much that I didn’t even notice that #MilesMorales did not have his tragedy yet. Not only does the #animation look gorgeous but now the whole chased by the League of Spider-people (I just made that up AND said it in Lucas Lee’s voice) thing makes more sense. Looks like this one will live up to the first #movie (which I saw 3x in the theatre) and I MUST see it in #IMAX again. Interestingly, YouTube served up the #Indian #trailer for me first and there are some HUGE differences compared to the US version. They focused completely on drama, with a couple of laughs thrown in. No mention of The Spot. And tied it into the live action movies to clue newcomers in. They know what sells in #Bollywood!
