Ukraine's Improvised 'Minigun'
This week interesting footage of an improvised weapon was shared online. social media quickly described it as the 'Ukrainian Minigun' but the anti-drone weapon consists of 6 AK-74s on a static anti-aircraft mount, seemingly designed to combat small, low flying drones.

The demand for anti-drone solutions is driven by the need to protect critical infrastructures and ensure public safety. In terms of regional analysis, North America is expected to be the fastest-growing and dominating region in the market.

Anti-Drone Technology – What Is It and How Does It Work?
Anti-Drone Technology – What Is It and How Does It Work?
Anti-drone Why? Advances in drone technology (and increased affordability and attainability) are pushing the limits of everything from home security to aerial photography, allowing civilians to explore higher and farther than ever before. However, with new opportunities come new threats.  For example, in December 2018, 140,000 passengers and 1000 flights were affected due to drone sightings…

More ship comparison (dont take it personal)
youtube
So basically...
Blitzo: *starts panicking, obviously being anxious because of his trauma*
Stolas: Is horny time *hornys all over the place*
Like... after what happened at Ozzies... after what Blitzo told you... EVEN IF HE DIDNT SAID IT, Blitzo is in very visible distress... and your firts instinc is to act horny?
"But-But, he called Blitzo by his name and not Blitzy!" Wow, amazing, the most basic thing that he can do for him is to spell his name right. But he couldn't do the other basic thing that is to calm him down properly. Because even after he flirts with him, Blitzo still looks distressed. EVEN PUSHES HIM TO THE STAGE, when you could have just grab him and left.
Fuck off, Stolas.
Now... the other ship... (go to second 0:49 of the video for the moment, thank you and sorry)
youtube
N isn't even talking, but is so obvious that something is troubling him. Uzi notices this, and looks at him worried, gently touches his hand and asks N if he's okay.
Tumblr media
The best part is that he did the same for her in ep 2! And in ep 4, when she was scared that he was gonna leave her, N reasured her and calmed her down.
youtube
(THEY ARE SO SWEET).
Because... he actually asked whats wrong?
Tumblr media
In fact, even the faces are so different. I mean, the reactions to seeing their loved ones looking worried or scared.
Stolas:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Uzi and N:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It feels more... gentle. Genuinely worried.
I dont understand why they couldnt do this with Stolas. He looks... desinterested. He doesnt care.
And later, they actually do it when Blitzo is performing... but Im still mad. HE SOULDNT HAVE FLIRTED WITH BLITZO. Like, tell me, do you flirt with someone who's panicking? That actually makes you look like a dick, honestly.
And Blitzo... they actually did it properly with him. Before in the ep, Stolas starts acting worried because of Octavia and Blitzo calms him down:
Tumblr media
And look! They even made him look worried! WHY THEY DIDNT DO IT WITH STOLAS TOO???
*SIGH* Okay, Im gonna stop now. But Il do more of this, I just need to analyze and rewatch, and that takes some time.
Love ya guys. AND REMEMBER, I HAVE NO PROBLEM IF YOU LIKE THIS SHIP, THIS IS MY OPINION.

So a lot of people have been asking me about what the difference between a Kicktoon is and a non-Kicktoon indie web cartoon, so I decided to make an update definition that would basically serve as my swan song for my big anti-kicktoon post in an attempt to try and make peace with the Kicktoon Community (except for Saberspark and Cellspex, they can both eat sh!t):

RIGHT, so I have had this thought for like………. Three weeks now.
Ya know that red eyed sentinel?
This guy:
Tumblr media
So like…….. what if he’s being controlled by Doll? We know that eye colours change depending on who is in control/who has controlled (thanks to CYN and her shenanigans) and I’ve seen people joke theorising about Thad being controlled by Nori.
But like this sentinel literally tries to murder the shit out of V and has red eyes, I could definitely see Doll turning into another CYN type character which could be interesting but what do you guys think?

Shoutout to murder drones for making merchandise that’s actually something people want to buy instead of slapping their characters skimpy outfits or making hideous plushies of a character that’s supposed to be the villain in the show

Why does Indie Animation lend itself to such intense discourse?
If I had to speculate from my own observations (feel free to call me out on an overgeneralizations), it would be that the harsh turn against any given indie project would be akin to a mother scolding a child with, "I expected this from your sibling but you?!"
See also the "We were rooting for you" gif often tossed around.
Indie Animation be it from a small studio or crowdfunded is seen as bypassing the hoops and hurdles of getting your foot in the door of the highly corporatized entertainment industry. With the likes of Disney or Nick or any given streaming service, creator driven projects are subject to the whims of the company who holds the IP.
And those whims are often to said IP's detriment. It'll more often than not be willfully neglected at best or treated as just something to fill a time slot or shove onto a streaming platform as "content." Enough may be allowed to flourish but their either uncerimoniously cut short at best or being dragged out as a franchise at worst.
To keep from going on about the whole Legend of Korra vs. Spongebob thing (I was there people, there was an LoK fandom believe it or not), indie animation has often been seen as small scale but also within the creator's general control since they control how long it goes or how it's written.
Many cartoons like Gravity Falls, Owl House and Amphibia have talked about trying to get their vision across while contending with a lot of Standards and Practices. Their story which had a "kids and adults alike" target audience would have the top brass insist on something more just for the former category.
While they find work arounds, often to stick their tongue out at the FCC, this can be a hard reminder of who has the final say despite it being what you want. Indie animation is seen as an answer to "What if Alex Hirsch didn't have to comprimise elements of Gravity Falls for the FCC?" or "What if Dana Terrence could just blaze her own trail with The Owl House with little to no notes?"
Especially when it comes to animation with queer characters. Animation made to be "fit for kids" have it tough enough even today but adult animation has to "play it for laughs" since comedies have been the defacto standard for that type of cartoon.
However... a show being creator driven or creative team driven comes as a double edged sword for the fandoms they form. Not all stories that play out across multiple episodes of varying lengths are going in the direction YOU might want to.
Creators might tire of a certain direction or formula and mix things up with things that come to mind almost on the spot. Even with a solid plan, the status quo will get a shake up that can and will alienate those who fell in love from episode one.
Indie Pilots spark the imagination something fierce. There's theories as to what any little detail could mean going forward and speculation on what a character's arc could be. These go wild because Fandom is all about the hypothetical, the unknown, the what could've/should've/would've been. Whole phenomenon would be dead in the water otherwise.
Thing is that not all theories will be proven right if any at all. The creators aren't mind readers and even if it isn't a legality like in corporate, they don't read fanfics if only because they don't want their vision to be totally compromised. Any good creator knows not to just give fans what they want. However... trampling over all these fanfics and theories makes it feel like any given fan had their "child" dragged into the streets to be shot.
A harsh phrasing but that's how a lot of fans act when continuing episode bump up against initial impression of this character or that storyline. It was their creation but new lore, new backstory or what have you is liable to override them. It's been an occupational hazard of being a member of fandom for ages yet it's become the center of a lot of discourse now more than ever. Say thank you to social media for creating such a combative environment everybody.
It's this... feeling of ownership that has existed in fandoms of other shows owned by corporations but amplied by the smaller scale of it, how creators seem more... approachable. And THIS is how the YouTube "critic" scene comes in to capitalize.
So... yeah.
