I just kinda want to get a tattoo that reads #Iskyq in Comic Sans on my shoulder blade.

I will fight you, Tok.

One step closer to creating an LSDJ.

I wonder if I should resume my Bliptronome prospect.

I’m perfectly fine with light clipping, and I’ll go on an hour long rant to defend it.

Explain how she’s holding the spoon.

Looks a little awkward, no?

The spoon is more or less inside the cup that her fingers and her palm make, rather than breaching it between the index finger and the middle finger akin to traditional Western silverware technique. One could argue the inherited awkwardness would be from the animation style itself, or more possibly the fact that Fluttershy’s character (as well as Spike) is well defined as being Left-hoofed/handed (See the hoof-rudding in the MLP:FiM introduction, as well as when she takes her bow at the end of the play in Hearth’s Warming Eve). Still, barring the translative differences aside when mirroring left and rightedness, the spoon still is being used as more of a gardening tool rather than the food consumption tool. Another possibility might be that the writers called for her spoon technique to be the demonstrated different style to subtly subvert the awkwardness of the scene itself, given Twilight’s response to eating the apple with her face. What I honestly hope for is that this action was intentional, but not called for in the script. What that would imply would be the apparent loss of editorial control and inherent authorship of the writer if an outsider, say a humble animator from DHX, could inject their own actions, symboles, and metaphors into the story that they are given. This might just be the most important frame of the entire film if that were the case, and dammit, I hope that is.

I haven’t actually seen the trailer.

They’re cartoon ponies

I honestly hope that you’re kidding and are merely ignoring the deep connotations that this particular scene could have on the entire idea of Author/Coauthor relationships in digital media/storytelling.

I don’t know how to feel about this.

Lighting up the Skin

Humans have practiced tattooing for thousands of years, but recently many people have been seeking subtler types that can’t be seen in normal light, such as glow-in-the-dark or Ultra Violet tattoos. While traditional tattoo ink consists of metallic pigments combined with a carrier solution, glow-in-the-dark ink utilises the process of phosphorescence, absorbing light and later emitting it as a glow in darkened conditions. UV ink, on the other hand, utilises the process of fluorescence and can only be seen under a blacklight—highly energetic UV light that lies just above visible light on the electromagnetic spectrum (i.e. just above violet). Fluorescent substances absorb this light and then re-emit it, and because some energy is lost in the process, the re-emitted light has a longer wavelength and so becomes visible. The vibrancy of UV tattoo ink depends on the colour, and the tattoos are nearly invisible in normal light, although scarring from the application process can still show. Dozens of everyday materials produce a fluorescent glow such as soda, detergents, and white paper—so it’s perhaps unsurprising that while there are safety concerns over phosphorous inks, UV inks seem to be far safer. However, they do currently have a reputation for irritation and complications, so the process is far from perfect just yet—but it looks awesome.

I WANT A SKULL ON MY FACE

i just really want black light tattoos okay
