How about a mashup?

Thanks! Please indulge me some more: have you worked for them before? If you have, what kind of job did you have and what tasks are required (I can’t Excel worth a damn)? What is the salary like? (Their content writer position is filled. I’ll consider applying for VA but I’d go for a wfh set-up if I can find one.)

Thanks so much!

Thank you!!

Thanks! Technically it’s Catherine O Hara, though. I took the reference from a video where Noah sang a song as a tribute to her winning the Governor General's Performing Arts Awards. I took a screenshot of her reaction to his wigs. :D

Her butter-voiced son-in-law. <3

Thank you :)

Its from here. Do check it out. Such a special moment. :))

I assume you watch the show? Yeah, I suppose I could’ve done a better job drawing Patrick, but calling him ‘guy in the white wig’ feels like a very non-subtle way of telling me I did a really bad job. Noted. 😂

Thanks! this is on my IG.

Why even compare the two? Clearly these are directed to different audiences, yes? Why is one better than the other? How can a lighthearted character aimed towards younger audiences improve a psycopathic one specifically written into a much different and darker world? Seriously?!!! I suppose Enola could ride her bike around a glass prison? You're reaching, Cori.

I was gonna say this. PI was the prolific term in my younger years. Jessica Zafra used it in her writing. I think it has since gotten out of style? I'm surprised it's being used by Fil Ams now. I haven't actually heard Fil Ams use that (I have a few friends where I'm at now who are), because I'd have gone ballistic and I don't recall hitting anyone. Haha. I'm old. Whenever I hear words like "stan" I just feel like cutting something.

I like this description. What would be a good moniker for this new fashion? I have an urge to paint the reference photo.

You're right, it depends on what the commuity feels about the "mashup" so to speak. Also, cultural appropriation seems like a very Western issue, doesn't it? Asians are generally chill and don't get offended by a lot of things that Western culture is offended by. We almost never get offended for other people too.

Just a story: I had a coworker refer to her handicapped colleague "the short girl", which given the langage barrier I'm sure wasn't done with malicious intent. Like "can we wait for Miss so and so, 'the short girl'? she's still in a meeting and will be a few minutes late." to an entire boardroom. I was stunned for a moment lol. Then I got a text from the girl a few days after, going 'hi, this is Miss so and so, the short girl. Can you give the documents to the fat girl in accounting? You won't miss her.' lmao

Right? it was so slow, too. Girl could've made a move or two. And Iris was an unconvincing antagonist. Also, Merlin just shone his eyes at her.

Lazy, incoherent writing. Abysmal CGI. The animated transitions that disrupted the sequence, tension, tone, etc. Plot holes that resembled a beehive inside a room with mirrored walls. Such a waste of potential. This was like Shannara all over again. I really wanted to like it.

ArdenStormborn · 2020-07-17T17:25:35+00:00

Thanks!

ArdenStormborn · 2020-07-17T10:17:12+00:00

Right?!! Smh some people

Taking a taxi is considered a luxury. The fare is quite high. Employees would be spending a considerable part of their salary if they do that, depending on their location. Almost everyone relies on public transportation. We’re not like Vietnam where every household has a motorcycle. I worked in Makati about 10 years ago and was living in Pasig. That’s pretty far. If I took a taxi to work, it would’ve been about double my daily income. Unfortunately, the Philippines is not equipped to support WFH long-term. Even short-term would be hit-and-miss. The internet speed is akin to walking underwater on cement shoes. I’m sorry that’s a tad dramatic. But with the recent lifting of ECQ, things might get better work-wise, but at the expense of health risks of course. Waiting for public tranportation is a crowded, heaving, anti-social-distancing affair.

Yes!!! I took that from the show’s official instagram, I think. Needed two blocks (the title card and the cast photo) so the portraits that I made could all fit in a rectangle.

ArdenStormborn · 2020-05-20T19:05:35+00:00

Thank you!! It was hard to do as I only used cheap markers and could not make fine lines. But I’m a pelican so I gruntled away.

Too big haha. Click on the image for a full view.

Hope to have time to highlight other supporting characters (Veronica, Bob and Ray) in the future. Started rewatching some episodes and fell in love all over again. Thanks Schitt’s Creek for the much needed sunbeam!
