What We Learned At Midwinter About the New StarKid Show
This will be divided into things that I remember being said, and then my own speculation (some of my speculation fueled by hearsay, some of which I feel confident about, but still—it’s not “official”).
- It will be shorter than previous works. Matt said as much and that he very much likes the idea of moving to hour-and-a-half or two-hour shows.
- Only members of Team StarKid who live in Chicago will be in this show. This definitely included everyone who was on the panel (Jim Povolo, Joe Walker, Meredith Stepien, Denise Donovan). Speculation: No Joey Richter, probably, since he lives in LA now. No Brant. Guessing no Joe Moses. I heard there were going to be some new people, but I have NO IDEA if this is true or not and that is ALL I heard about it.
More under a cut because this is longer than I expected.
Is this the new show that Darren said on Comic-Con last year? Hmm..

ACTA in a Nutshell –
What is ACTA? ACTA is the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement. A new intellectual property enforcement treaty being negotiated by the United States, the European Community, Switzerland, and Japan, with Australia, the Republic of Korea, New Zealand, Mexico, Jordan, Morocco, Singapore, the United Arab Emirates, and Canada recently announcing that they will join in as well.
Why should you care about ACTA? Initial reports indicate that the treaty will have a very broad scope and will involve new tools targeting “Internet distribution and information technology.”
What is the goal of ACTA? Reportedly the goal is to create new legal standards of intellectual property enforcement, as well as increased international cooperation, an example of which would be an increase in information sharing between signatory countries’ law enforcement agencies.

Chinese New Year’s Dinner with my family :) I wouldn’t miss it for anything. And tomorrow, I will get some money..haha..
This is so lame..but I really really hope that the Glee cast will come to Darren’s last performance on H2S.
Tumblr will going down fast if SOPA and PIPA get through.
All the gifs, the manips, the edits that were tagged as #mine , the screencaps, the memes, the videos, the random quotes, the scans, and all those jazzes.
