Danish: god you’re dumb
me: why are you talking to me
Danish: why are YOU talking to ME
me: bc you messaged me to engage me in an argument about something i liked
Danish: well i wanted to know what you liked about this video and you have yet to explain it
me: okay you really want me to write like, a full essay on my feelings about this
Danish: i want you to write one to two sentences about why that video is compelling
me: 1. i also have enjoyed a few sloth videos on the internet in recent times & understand why someone would be so into them; 2. i think dax & kbell are a cute couple; 3. i think thats a real creative gift to give a sloth fanatic & a kind of adorb use of “celeb rich person” power in a gift; 4. i find her “outside 3-7” emotion scale kinda funny, as i know ppl like that irl & they also crack me up; 5. the joke ellen plays on her at the end is hilarious & my fav part of the video
First Look of the Day: Thirteen years later, Cowboy Bebop director Shinichirō Watanabe is reuniting with Cowboy Bebop composer Yoko Kanno for a brand new anime about “a naive boy and a scruffy boy [who] share a passion for jazz in a provincial town in the late 1960s.”

Godspeed You! Black Mesa of the Day: Impressive and haunting mashup of Godspeed You! Black Emperor’s “The Dead Flag Blues” and in-game footage from Half-Life 2 that took Michael over 100 hours to compile.
The goal of this project was to take the song “The Dead Flag Blues” and match it with striking imagery from the Half-Life 2 series to create a unique video that fans can enjoy. Call it a trailer, short, montage, music video, machinima, whatever you want, this my tribute to one the best game series around and everyone’s favorite hero. Oh, the band rules too.
