RICHMOND I AM LOSING MY MIND!!! PLEASE START PEOMOTING THE KICKSTARTER! I WILL GIVE YOU SO MUCN OF MY MONEY FOR BILL ITEMS
I love when Hana drops a video and I clear 2 hours of my day
I got to sit down with Rob Renzetti, co-author of Journal 3 and Supervising Producer on Gravity Falls, and also just an animation legend, who was genuinely just such a delight to chat with (super nice!)
Hear him answer my questions about:
Ford's characterization
Journal 3's writing process
the Gravity Falls timeline
the SearchForTheBlindEye website
Jheselbraum the Unswerving (the Oracle from Journal 3)
Ford's relationship with Bill
the "Better World" from Journal 3
The Horrible Bag of Terrible Things
Thoughts on the Book of Bill
and MUCH MUCH MORE!
As an autistic person who has trouble understanding social cues and tones I would be terrified to be bill’s friend 
He'd be hell even for neurotypicals to decipher. No matter how he's feeling, any time you look at him he's like,
Imagine you've lived your whole life riding by on the ability to effortlessly guess how everyone's feeling based on their facial expression. Then you meet a guy who's a sentient 👁️ emoji. But the face never changes. What do you do with that. What the fuck do you do with that. He's just,
Interpret his mood wrong and you die.
Bills on Bills on Bills on Bills!!!!!!!!!!!
11 years ago today, on June 15, 2012, the first episode of Gravity Falls aired on TV. In the 11 years since, it has grown to be a truly beloved story, influencing numerous other works since and establishing its place among the best animated series. I didn’t end up watching it until summer 2022, but I’m grateful for how creative, active, and welcoming the fandom continues to be, even years after the show’s finale. The enduring nature of Gravity Falls’ story, popularity, and fandom are a testament to its brilliance. Here’s to 11 more years of staying curious, staying weird, and staying kind!
Obsessed with his fucking physiology
THERE IS A NON-ZERO CHANCE THAT THIS IS JHESELBRAUM. SAME EYES, SAME LIPS, SAME HOOD, HER ENTRY SAYS SHE’S THE SMARTEST ONE AND FIGURED OUT SOMETHING THAT HAD TO DO WITH PORTALS TO OTHER DIMENSIONS
I had worried they’d make her not be purple
I think this version is cute, though. She looks vaguely froglike. But we don’t know that it’s her
Bill and Ford both having little autobiographies/daries alone is funny but the fact that Bill copied Ford's design is funnier to me.
The binding on the side, image representing oneself in the middle, and the four,,, thingies at the corners of the book. We get it, Bill. You think you're hilarious.
