Animaniacs & John K's blog #2 Bland, - Brianne
I explain John's stranger methods of grilling Animaniacs and lead onward into the mechanics of becoming an interesting person who makes interesting artwork

In John Kricfalusi's review for the release of Animaniacs which was very well known in the cartoon communities, he says that “he breaks down and actually watches” the show after reviewing it from only the ads. This implies that there's some sort of principle he is violating by doing so. As if going against faith. The trickster can form a sort of secondary faith that can be observed in MLKjr and other people of the past. For this form of belief conscious knowledge is not necessary because it is associated with a cosmic realm outside of God's Kingdom, and knowledge is one of the things of God.
In this instance John is drawing on the black fact that there is no way Animaniacs could be actually good because it does not respect the principles of cartooning and the principles of cartooning point towards black culture. And most certainly Animaniacs could not do anything actually new because the creation of new creative things involves the cooperation of the trickster, and the trickster would not cooperate with any fake cartoons. Things like that can only be made with the brain and the dismal spirituality of the world, they cannot interface with what lies outside of it and therefore innovate.
For example when he says Animaniacs used “long-outdated bits of vaudeville” that's the pre-existent comedy that Animaniacs has to resort to, and meanwhile Ren and Stimpy could do new stuff like the famous scene with Mr horse and the walrus. It can't even do a clever spin on those old genres. And indeed in the show they copy “Who's on First?”. (Which has a clever spin in my webcomic I saw in spiritual visions.) John was right and he didn't need direct conscious knowledge to see that.
At the same time he's basically lampshading how colossally wrong Animaniacs got cartoons by making a “fake mistake”, having a mock crisis about watching the show which objectively in the world was not a big deal because people didn't even know who the trickster was. John had so much black awareness he knew it was possible to have a REAL crisis which resembles this, and he was showing off how much he had. (Leading to the unexplainable accusations from his haters of having a huge ego.) And indeed as a teenager I had crises bigger and smaller like this as I was working on introducing the Paranormal - scaling up from what John did.
“Long-outdated” relates to the fact that there is a certain form of content which should be made in each year, and the makers of Animaniacs could not make content that fits the current year. Indeed, as a teenager I followed on the real tradition of works such as star trek, Ren and Stimpy, crisis on infinite earths, the x-files, and other things to introduce the Paranormal with anomalous phenomena. And that really would be just some artist introducing the Paranormal for the first time through his work, an event that was too much for the “timeline.” this comic book is properly set in about 2011, but instead that's when my life exploded in disaster. Following on this, my substack discusses the Paranormal as if the time to properly introduce it has long passed.
Now on to some of his blog posts.
Bland is a good start, since without being able to find passage through the dimensions of the trickster people cannot make anything truly intense in artwork.
“It would be immature” relates to how direct knowledge of the trickster is something that children have - while adults are unable to tell. John's passionate cartooning brings following along with hIm into adulthood, to the intense discomfort of many, hence making fun of it.
“Ignorance and superstition” is a phrase used by people like Margaret Sanger to mischaracterize the trickster's domains of mystery and story, and thereby mischaracterize and mislead blackness.
Superstition is also a real thing caused by sin, and so John affirms that one of the funniest things in the world is believing in superstitions - like that Animaniacs was a good cartoon - and thereby getting caught in the curling tricks of the Trickster, which are unveiled in the end times with some preparatory unveilings like from my posts.
John is illustrating that going against the trickster will lead to embarrassment that will take the form of entertaining others. One of the nice things he did.
John affirms that there is a balance of competing forces in the proper functioning of the world which involves undermining the desire for pure goodness.
This is a process associated with the Birdman, who organizes heroes and villains and lesser figures and equivalents in real life and fiction to achieve goals like resolving a conflict or simply telling a good story. Stories and other entertainment give “bad boy” appeal through mechanisms like imitating a fictional villain or antihero, creating a more appealing personality without actual wrongdoing being involved. He can also be involved with real life conflict which can impart such personality change as well.
In the absence of this spiritual development, people like on social media embraced doing full-out wrong things instead of the spicier things of life like people feel a natural fondness for, which can increase on the Scoville scale through the activation and development of the black domain.
Essentially people chose lgbtq and vandalism over fighting monster rampages created by a scientist.
John illustrates the difference between people on the side of the trickster and people who are not. He shows that there's a conflict here, but the explanation is not directly stated. And it is very stimulating towards finding the explanation, since it's absurd to have such a intensive conflict over drawing fun characters unless there's some kind of spiritual background involved.
And now I give the explanation. “bland people” are so because they took the easy path in life of not listening to the trickster in childhood. He guides the journey into adulthood through these whispers. For instance he guided me into dropping out of high school, protesting Public School, getting into artistic mediums I couldn't even afford, and ultimately introducing the Paranormal through these chains of decisions, which is a multiversal event that transcends this series of events I have lived.
This has made me very interesting to the point that people have made a lot of money by basing a lot of characters on me, and also that people are incapable of comprehending my personality, and also as a complication struggled to acknowledge my most basic traits like being a horror creative.
“Bland people” who often can also be called animation trolls (which I will make an article about sometime, but I have a lot on my plate) want entertainment that reflects themselves and are threatened by interesting entertainment. They are reminded that the cost of their easy life is that they have not earned the creation of thrilling stories - an ability which reflects a thrilling life, like John making cartoons without the approval of his dad and navigating the blandified animation system so he could revolutionize it.
One of the most threatening facts for them is that ultimately entertainment and other artwork will be ceded to interesting people, and gradually bland artwork will become a complete thing of the past.
I even believe there is a category of people that will end up in heaven uninteresting according to the standard of this article, but will get to enjoy the creativity of interesting people. An example of the unequal state of heaven. A heavy notion for sinful people to grapple with, especially in ignorance. For me I like the idea of people to entertain who could never possibly entertain like I can.
Next I move on to the only post in the Brianne tag. She has been one of my favorite artists.
Here he distinguishes collections of unrelated shapes from hierarchy. Hierarchy is one of those abstract concepts which Protestants have an issue with since they have always intended to undermine the development of Cosmic Hierarchy and works and tradition create hierarchy like the patronages of saints. It is a consequence of their spiritual commitments that they fail at this artistic principle.
Unrelated shapes also can describe how people who cannot pass into the trickster's realm draw, since they just assemble things together while lacking a lot of creative power + the trickster's realm matches what they have created, it doesn't just exist in the brain then.
He adds this note to her drawing with rabbits, as rabbits are one of the animals that represent the trickster, alongside sea monsters and others.
He notes that there is a challenge to make him like anime, a challenge which passed down to me, and so his haters and other people in their communities avoided introducing me to the works of Trigger and other Japanese work like OVAs with very expressive characters. Starting with Gurren Lagann, then with Kill la Kill appealing to me was complete, and my normal life ended as well with that show.
All of these principles are abstract, with some exception unlike realistic anatomy and rules of stable architecture. Even construction can become abstract as with UPA. It could be said that truly understanding the construction of advanced cartoonists passes into the realm of the trickster, an understanding I pondered about as a teenager.
And so here we find reason to accuse John of being a groomer even though he focuses entirely upon the art which is very unusual for a groomer or even just a horny person. Because if the actual basis for these principles cannot be defined then he is just insistently pushing his own made up standards, which is a good definition of grooming. But there is a clear and objective basis for these principles, they're just associated with entry into a mystically dark part of life which I, as John's number one fan, aimed to bring to light.
In our recent time even the idea of individuality was difficult to parse because for many that was just sexuality, politics and racial grievance. And fun, well lol.
As I expand upon my philosophy and metaphysics I developed by reading John's blog another source of the rumors and sentiments about him will be dispelled. Thereby letting people see the profoundly meaningful things he was contributing to others and received by a few like Brianne.
