Bob's Burgers in general, but in particular the season 4 episode The Equestranauts, which gracefully slays brony culture
(Equesticles!). Look at all you've accomplished Tina, with your bangs and your socks. If you'd prefer an abridged brony smackdown, here's a GIF set for you.
Just as we were talking about communal art practice in fandom (sweet cross-promotion), a wild Sailor Moon project appears! Announced last November, MoonAnimate Make-Up! is a fan-recreated episode of the original anime (in which the
girls save Tuxedo Mask, live fast die young bad girls do it well). The best part is that it features a different animator for
every shot. Incredible right? Comics Alliance have a cool overview with the teaser clip, and
they have a Tumblr too.
If you can get to the Tate Modern before the end of May, they've created a retrospective on the work of Richard Hamilton, one of the founding figures of pop art in London. Ft. pop,
politics, mass-production, cut-outs of pin-ups doing housework.
On another continent is MOCA's show of Mike Kelley's next-gen, post-punk pop art. Even if art isn't your thing, please go and see
these for me, or email if you have a glitch-free teleporter.
And finally, a perfect sci-fi song. Go commit some
thoughtcrimes, you little rabble-rousers:
Stay safe!
