demon-space-boi asked: Fun fact: I went to a panel Rikki Simons hosted at OMGcon and he brought up how Nickelodeon had no idea of JTHM when they asked Jhonen to make a cartoon, only issue 1 of Squee. They found out in the middle of the show's run and Nickelodeon in regards to JTHM told the invader zim crew to "Not bring up Jhonen's 'Pornography comics' at work". That was fun to hear Rikki say into a microphone.
thats almost funnier tho like *sees this dude has published An Issue Of An Comic* give him… a children’s tv show… Oh No We Have Made A Mistake
He also brought up the origin of “Bloody Gir” during the panel. The true backstory for it was some of the crew members watched, if I remember correctly, Fight Club and wanted something scary to be on screen for a split second. So they drew it for the mortos de soulstealer opening and asked Rikki to color it, and apparently nickelodeon approved it as long as “It’s not too much like blood” Rikki has seen the conspiracy videos on youtube about it and finds them funny
i always thoguht it was from the original plan of the episode where gir got fixed and became a competent invasion bot that had to be scrapped and the crew were salty at the execs and hid it into various episodes transparent.
There are a lot of times I feel like just…flipping the vegan script.
It’s not ‘polyester’ it’s plastic
It’s not ‘vegan leather’ it’s plastic
Its not ‘faux fur’ it’s plastic
Plastic is a pollutant and causes far more damage to the environment both now and in the future than leather or wool.
Please stop telling me that the Plastic Lyfe is the only life, it is not. My leather shoes will last a decade where pleather is lucky to last 12 months. Leather (and wool) decompose and are renewable. Plastic is neither of those.
THANK YOUUUUUUU~
A single wash cycle of plastic-based fiber (polyester, poly fleece, faux fur) may release 700,000 pieces of microplastic into our waters. Nasty stuff.
aw dangit
Wool is the most environmentally friendly fabric despite being an animal product.
Using wool isnt even harming sheep
Sheep need to be sheered or else it will cause serious problems. It’s a mutual relationship, we help sheep get rid of the pesky wool and it gives us a very useful material.
Also chickens will lay eggs no matter what!! That’s literally what chickens do!!! You are not eating “chick embryos”!!! If you’re worried about supporting the corporate mass farming industry, buy from a local free-range chicken owner! Almost anywhere has farmer’s markets!
This is the part where we talk about how the demand for agave nectar as an alternative to honey is destroying the habitat of the endangered long-nosed bat, which lives on agave.
Bees literally make an excess of honey, too much for them to handle. Beekeepers are helping them by taking honey. BEE MOVIE WAS LITERALLY ABOUT THIS HOLY SHIT
