Fifteen years ago, the tv animation world was changed forever when a little show about a sailor boy with an adventurous spirit premiered on CN. Although it’s run was short, the series led to a renaissance of animated shows, such as Adventure Time, Gravity Falls, Regular Show, and more. So thanks, Flapjack, for being the godfather of 2010s animation.

With the end of TOH not only capping off Disney's "loose Trilogy" with Gravity Falls, & Amphibia, it pretty much marks the end of this Golden Age of Original Children's Cartoons with Heavy syndicated storylines that started back with Adventure Time. While I don't discredit show that aren't syndicated stories or even the "brand cartoons" Like Star Wars, Transformers, or TMNT there was something magical about seeing people come up with original tales from stuff they were big fans & grew up on to create a whole era that made it cool for adults to have these theories, Excellent fanart, & to be something more then what we were used to in our youths.
I can only hope I'm wrong & one day we'll see another TOH or Steven Universe or Kipo, or Centaurworld, or Adventure Time, or Regular Show, or etc. But with recent events it leaves me less enthused. But I'll still cherish that the 2010's to the early 2020's was this marvelous & revolutionary age for TV animation.

I’m currently unemployed, the job market in the Animation Industry is a mess right now, and I’m not sure when I’ll find new work. In the mean time, every time I leave my apartment it costs me something!
If you could please consider donating $5 to my “Little Treat Fund”, I’d be happy to doodle you something of your choice. Nothing super complex, these aren’t fine art commission pieces, but a doodle of something. Examples listed to help generate ideas
Please send $5 through ko-fi and write what you wish me to doodle on the donation.
I’m not sure if ko-fi allows you to add reference images but be descriptive as possible: i.e. LUFFY (from one piece), my character Ren (google xyz) etc
Reblogs are super appreciated 🥲💖

⚠️fandom stalker alert! ⚠️
tw; death threats, stalking, harassment
I am making this post warning fandom artists, writers, and individuals in the animation industry to be wary of an individual known to plagiarize, stalk, harass, and run individuals off of their platforms: user taurealis, otherwise known as: Grace, deoxyriibos, Summer’s Crush, astroloqueen, sweetnsasssy, availheuristic#1707 (among many other aliases, additionally listed in the original call-out post)
Grace is a serial cyber stalker, who frequently “befriends” others she admires, only to abuse anonymous features to send hate, creates account after account to send toxicity after being blocked, and frequently lies about having “powerful friends” to evade consequences of her actions.
This user has gone as far as to call areas of employment to spread lies in an attempt to have multiple innocent animators fired, try to manipulate minors to move close to her, send death threats via anon (all anons lead back to the same IP address, which I will not share out of concerns for privacy), and frequently pressures others to meet up in real life.
(screenshot provided by one of her victims, who was kind enough to allow me to share one of the hateful messages they received)
Multiple industry professionals have been made aware of her actions because she is so notorious for harassing others; many are still too afraid to come forward unless via anon, where you can see multiple testimonies of her behavior.
**If this post shows up on your fandom tag, please be careful, let others know, and stay cautious of her presence in online spaces.**
