My Facebook meme groups DELIVERED

The iconic McElroy Double “Unless.” I can hear them perfectly.

I noticed a couple people in the tags saying the Double Unless is a Hamilton reference, which means there are people out there who don’t realize that Hamilton was actually referencing the McElroys, not the other way around. Lin said so himself.

So anyway, I just wanted to share the good, good news.

I wish A Christmas Carol had an even stronger influence on Christmas tradition and ghosts became a symbol of the holiday

Even better if terrorising the rich into acts of kindness also became a part of Christmas

I’ve been trying to leave Rome for a few weeks now, but all their roads have this weird design flaw

Hi, ADs. This time of year there always seems to be a ton of big, serious art challenges going on for fantasy art. I’ve also been doing smaller weekly challenges, run by artists working in the industry I want to work for, as a means of practice for real deadlines and “real” work. Thoughts on these types of things? Do AD’s actually pay attention to these? Would it be held against me if my portfolio update for winter consists of mostly/all pieces done for these challenges(tailored of course)?Thnx!

#MerMay, #JuneFae, #Inktober, #MonthOfFear, #MonthOfLove, WE LOVE THAT SHIT. ADs are constantly checking in on those tags. I think there’s even a #Gnomvember. Ridiculous.

Will we think less of you if your portfolio is all those pieces? No, we won’t think less of you, we’ll just think you’re someone just starting out. If you’re not JUST starting out, then you should have some client work in your portfolio as well so it’s shown that you have some professional experience. But if you’re new & starting out, then it’s fine! I personally have found many artists thru these tags.

tbh it amazes me how Ariana Grande’s “Thank U, Next” blew up or ended up being a massive success because based on how it was released, you could tell it was an accidental hit or it wasn’t intended to be a hit. first, it was released on a Saturday evening, which no artists ever do, because it’s textbook 101 to release songs on Friday midnight, which is when the charts reset. sure Ariana released it at the same time Pete’s SNL episode aired but this was just for the execution. Ari put herself at a disadvantage since she lost a day of streams and sales for it. and yeah she intended this just to be her love letter to her exes and herself. second, it only got a lyric video and it didn’t have any radio deals. in fact, Breathing, was intended to be the single her label would promote or what they intended to chart since it got a music video too. it was also her most poppy record from Sweetener. but then after Thank U Next got released, it spurred so many memes, it was a streaming giant that it surpassed Ed Sheeran and Drake’s streams in like the first few days, and then it eventually debuted at #1 in the Hot 100 not only making it her first overdue #1 but also the first #1 debut by a female artist in years since the last song that did that was Adele’s “Hello” in 2015. it broke records left and right with ONLY the single and A LYRIC VIDEO. not even a music video because like most songs that debuted at #1 had a video with it. and i’m glad that they followed suit by filming a music video that was inspired visually by a culmination of movies that greatly impacted pop culture plus having a star-studded cast.. fast forward, it broke the record for most views in 24 hours with 55m and eventually fastest to get to 100m views.. like i bet Ariana mustve been really overwhelmed and in disbelief. cause for years, she and her camp have been trying real hard for her to have a huge break but she and her team achieved this when they least expected it. like she’s really been through alot and i bet she is just cherishing every moment of this success. legit Ariana is on top of the world right now and is the talk 24/7. she just dismantled the pop patriarchy and did it with unconventional methods. not to mention, the message of Thank U Next is so refreshing since it talks about her exes in a positive light and this experience as her taking the high road. so yeah, she deserves all the success she is getting. thank u for coming to my TEDtalk, next
