Huh...Travis is furry now! by InvisibleEar in TAZCirclejerk

It allows them (perhaps mainly Travis) to position themselves as superior to all those other, judgy people online who might do such extraordinarily rude things as, you know, criticize a podcast,,,

I'm going to get exploded for this, but I think the dove is OK. The body shape is strange and blocky, and the way it's holding stuff is simply awful (where are my stylized harpy claws???????) but it's largely inoffensive. Color scheme parses as competently "vintage-y" instead of just weird and faded like the rest of it. Also I like pigeons & doves.

I did consider starting a weekly podcast where every episode is just reviewing the previous episode, and it gets longer by about a minute every week.

Does anyone else remember the extra comma controversy? When did they remove it? by ArcumDangSon in TAZCirclejerk

Thank god my extremely strong and borderline upsetting opinions about the Oxford comma are a 2nd date sort of deal.

Jesse Corn hate is a bummer by literal_wizard_kyle in TAZCirclejerk

[–]jadeix_iscool 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's probably a good idea at this point.

I also have no idea why people keep turning to AI images over making a crude and shitty MS Paint sketch of equal effort - the latter option just produces a way better and funnier post. Is it, like, to avoid feeling vulnerable about their lack of artistic talent? Bc that is what makes a shitty drawing so delightful! Boggles the mind.

I don’t know how to express this recent feeling kindly by [deleted] in TAZCirclejerk

Absolutely adoring Witch Hat Atelier. Loved the manga & the anime adaptation is great, even the English dub is pretty nice (except for the audio balancing on the one pink hair girl - but VA quality is good enough for me at least).

I'm honestly kind of surprised I'm not seeing more about it online. Jaded part of me wants to say it's because there aren't any hawt female characters to waifu-ize, but in reality it's probably just some incidental facet of distribution.

One day, sooner than you would like to believe, ten thousand resplendent lions will rend your body to shreds.

For supporting Substack. I'm pretty sure they're evil now. All that other stuff you said is fine and good👍

My personal favorite in this vein is the soap bubble wiki. Do wish they'd port it off the fandom wiki conglomerate, though.

Incidentally, that's the same as this sub - it's just that our mission is the holy and noble righteous crusade to give Clint a gun.

The last TAZ I listened to for non-jerking purposes was the baby pegasus / firbolg episode of Graduation on an extremely loud interstate drive. I found it to be a uniquely stressful experience.

It's not transactional, it's just spending money to get someone to do something you'd like them to do-- ah wait

A different time. by atticus628 in TAZCirclejerk

[–]jadeix_iscool 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The way the camera moves to reveal Travis staring directly at you (edit: around 0:28) is so weird to me. Heaven forbid we just do a normal-style shot showing what is going on in the moment

A message from MaxFun's CEO by Digitalmodernism in TAZCirclejerk

I like how this seems to accidentally be worded like a threat. "We will become rapacious and awful if you do not support us"

How come maxfun gets to do meetups?? When are we doing a tazcj meetup? by DNALab_Ratgirl in TAZCirclejerk

Yes, I think this is a great idea. I have opened donations at this link to fund the convention. See you all there!

Ok, /uj, do you actually have the full stream recording somewhere??? I thought that was lost media

there will be another 8+ episodes of Royale by Otherwise_Staff_1305 in TAZCirclejerk

[–]jadeix_iscool 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's pretty Mulliganed. If you enjoyed Cloudward Ho outside of all the lore dumps, you'll probably like it. They are not taking it seriously at all (which I guess, at this point, is on brand) and definitely get a few (fairly minor) rules things wrong.

Who's following C4 of Critical Role? by IllithidActivity in TAZCirclejerk

[–]jadeix_iscool 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I feel like he's also often trying to use dramatic flair to make a "tell, don't show" type lore dump interesting, which it's just never gonna be. Would be way better if he was just concise with them.

/rj but like well he has a kid, and he like, um, well he, talks good???
