If only… our 27” family CRT was like a thousand dollars. A nobody had rear projection TVs until like the 2000s!

We had one but I wasn’t allowed to game on it because my parents were worried about burn in

I’m more concerned about the DVD case which barely existed in 96 lol

Oh, wow! I played Mario 64 on one of those, on a Nintendo 64 imported from Japan before they released in the USA. Memories…

First 10/10 on the spectrum mouse crush.
Gadget never once even understood every animal on the series hit on her every day. Never cared. Got her shit done. Loved her every episode.
I’m convicted that Ritsuko in Evangelion is loosely based on Gadget. I’ll fight you over this.
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Every time someone describes her I feel like I should know Gadget but I missed the show. You just answered it for me I think I married her.

In a flash I was sent back, to the moment where it all began, psychically traveling to a gloomy Saturday afternoon in 1988.
I was sitting on the orange velvet couch watching “Catteries Not Included,” when suddenly, an arousingly confident Gadget Hackwrench appeared and asked for my help fixing the ever-beleaguered Screaming Eagle. I don’t know, I acquiesced. And as I handed her the hog ring pliers, her fuzzy digits grazed mine, and in that moment, truly, I was wooooke.

I mean, there is a direct path from the marketing mindset that gave us OG He-Man to Andrew Tate. Image

Hey, what’s going on?

I wonder if there’s a correlation between the rise in sexy anthropomorphized animals and furries.
When I was younger they absolutely had humanized animals in cartoons, but they were super modest if they were human-ish, otherwise they were just talking animals. At some point we gave them…”generous” human attributes.

Here’s the original sexy-dog version of Betty Boop cast as a sex worker a sailor visits in 1930. This stuff has been going in in cartoons for about as long as there have been cartoons.
RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 1 month ago
There’s exceptions, of course you’re right. But it became way more common in and after the 1980s.

Hey don’t be rude. That was half the US annual pixel budget in 1966. That was enough pixels to send a man to the moon.

Diana Rigg in the role of Emma Peel in the tv series The Avengers. She costarred with Patrick NcNee in the more British than British spy show about two secret agents.
This is a clip where Mrs. Peel infiltrates a secret group rebuilding the old Hellfire Club.
Overall the show keyed a love of tight leather and ass kicking females protagonists in a lot of growing young men.

Minerva Mink
She only had two starring shorts because the showrunners decided she was too sexy for something aimed primarily at kids. Didn’t even get to the suits asking them to tone it down, they just decided they had crossed a line all on their own.
hansolo@lemmy.today 1 month ago
I did like when she was a foil to Slappy Squirrel.
Exatron@lemmy.world 1 month ago
And she was in the show’s opening
mic_check_one_two@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 month ago
You beat me to it. It’s wild that the showrunners spontaneously went “hey uhh, maybe we need to tone it down?” On a show with characters like the nurse, somehow Minerva was too far.
VitoRobles@lemmy.today 1 month ago
Furry was a new concept for me in the 2010s. Draw something like this, and they flag you.
If you drew images like this in the 90s, did most people call it out or did they give you the ol’ “nice!” Comment?

For me it was when the Green Ranger showed up in '93 and child me was like, "I don't know why, but I want that man to strap me to a table."
