[i am the blue - OneyPlays Animated]

Is the Blue currently having a heart attack? Should I call the paramedics? What's the number for "911"?

[An Interview with a Famous Japanese Robot (Blender 2.93)]

The Astro Boy movie from 2009 wasn't that great imo (it certainly wasn't that deep), but this was a pretty great and nuanced animation performance!

[Eviction Notice]

Of all planets…why did they choose Earth…?

[little sleepy - OneyPlays Animated]

Not exactly “woke,” is he?

[Lighten Up : Foamy The Squirrel]

So the next time I feel anxious, make the next End of Evangelion. Got it.

But in all seriousness, this is a question I’ve been asking myself recently: Why is it, in dark times, that society as a whole insists on fighting the negativity by being MORE negative? When I try to be positive, I’m not in denial of bad things happening in the world, I just think we’re more effective at stopping some of those bad things when we are not in a state of hopelessness, thus I need to work hard to brighten up (or at least neutralize) the room so people don’t wallow in sadness and bring me down with them…

[ANXIOUS]

I try not to let my perpetual sense of dread affect me or especially other people around me who could use someone more optimistic in their circle of friends, but this is exactly the type of dreams and thoughts I have to deal with as someone with GAD (Generalized Anxiety Disorder). Trying to stay informed with the news for the past 8 or so years while also trying to tell the difference between actual news and partisan opinions has particularly been a challenge, although I suppose people who aren’t diagnosed with any form of chronic anxiety have to cope with journos and politicians profiting off of fear equally as much…

[Spooky Month 4 - Deadly Smiles]

Nothing will ever quite top the simplicity of the original Spooky Month for me, but this was quite funny and very beautifully animated!

[Rudolph finally gets to smash]

Everyone’s motivations in this parody, especially Clarice’s, makes a lot more sense than in the Rankin Bass movie! Also, something about her Dad forcing her to be nice to the “special” kid at first cracks me up!

[The Boo Boo Kisser]

A Karen saving the day instead of ruining it? Unrealistic!

[A Mushroom Kingdom Christmas 🎄]

Amazing how much story you were able to tell with just easy-to-read expressions and movement! Merry Christmas!
