I will now admit that I saved Kemono Friends deliberately because I was told it's a so-called "healing anime," and given how 2020's been going, I really, really need some damn healing right now.

So. Kemono Friends. Mine academic friends, I beg thee to mute this thread. https://twitter.com/magicalgirlnoir/status/1267259564694487041

>painted on expression with literally no animation in this scene, just a static figure someone wiggled around with their mouse cursor

This anime is famous and catapulted the director to the height of fame.

It has a budget of $3.54.

So he's a genius, then.

Totally! There's the ones that slowly turn on you when you're no longer of use to them by degrading you constantly with catty comments, there's the ones that stick by your side during childhood until they threaten you to look cool to a girl and you knock them out cold in rage-
- and then there's ones who make everything else worth it...

.... but, uh, that only makes you more depressed because they remind you of how shitty you are and how you can't ever do them justice I'M NOT GOING TO BE HAPPY AND YOU CAN'T MAKE ME BE HAPPY DAMMIT

They gave some writer a budget and said "make us a shitty gacha tie-in idk" and turned their backs and left him with NO ADULT SUPERVISION

So the park has multiple areas with different climates.

So somehow they just, you know, maintain completely different biospheres, including temperature and relevant weather patterns within an improbably small geographic area.

So y'all ever hear of the Hatfield neolithic trackway? It's an elevated wooden trail - very much like the one you see here, just a little more primitive in design - built around 2900-2500 BC. Despite MILLENNIA, in a BOG, the damn thing still had wooden poles in evidence.
Why is that significant?

No reason.

No goddamned reason.

Just thought it was interesting, is all

Quick, Bag-Chan! Invent braided cord and a stone axe so you can build a raft!

That's not easy, either. Just one of those would take them another day alone, easily, to make.
Forget it girl, that ain't a Christie suspension and look at that spacing!
Well there's the braided cord! Thank god for the salvaged wooden sections.
I love how they didn't trivialize the engineering required here. The wooden sections are really only pontoon floats; the cables will have to carry the weight.

It doesn't anymore tho. I hunted through the history pages and found that some fucking tankie fuck whined about the source of that data so they could expunge it from the page. Wikipedia is nothing but tainted lies and your miserable life amounts to nothing

So if you've ever read the memoirs of David Sterling - the man who invented the "Long Range Desert Patrol Group," later re-named the "SAS" - you'll recall mention of an Italian staff car they used to infiltrate a German-held town.
As one man put it, "we carried that damn car across the desert." It bogged down every twenty meters and required them to push it out again.

If memory serves that same car also developed a high-pitched whining sound which lent their covert mission an air of high comedy.
