Today I simply want to give big thanks to Niccea, as well as Tantz-Aerine, and bravo1102, and everyone else who helped bring us the Drunk Duck Awards this year.
There were judges, presenters, comics that were submitted, and people who read the comic that made it a lot of fun ...
The Curtains are Closing - Drunk Duck Awards 2020
Banes at 12:00AM, Nov. 12, 2020Nostalgia for a Time Never Experienced
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Nov. 9, 2020
Anemoia describes the feeling of missing a time never experienced personally. Movies know how to inspire this feeling whenever a particular orchestra song from the previous century is played during a period piece of a Miami nightclub from the 1950s or whenever synthesizer pop and electric guitar solos transports people ...
The Characters Bring The Tension
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Nov. 7, 2020

I just started the Netflix series called “The Hanting of Bly Manor”.
It's hard to say how it's going to turn out in the end, since I'm just at the beginning. But overall so far, I'm enjoying the thing. There are many unanswered questions already, and ...
Digging for references
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Oct. 2, 2020

Cultural Significance
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Sept. 26, 2020
So the other day I watched a very interesting video about the new Mulan movie. It was by a Chinese person, explaining why several things were done in a way that is inherently alien to the Chinese culture.
I also recall that the original Mulan was not a hit in ...
