Jack Stauber’s “Opal” Theory

Last night, I stumbled across Adult Swim premiering Jack Stauber’s “Opal” and got to enjoy it in its entirety. I’m a huge fan of his work, and seeing his latest and biggest animation to date was quite the treat in this season of tricks!

I really enjoyed the lore and thought I would (try to) explain my personal theories regarding the story.

If you haven’t watched “Opal”, I highly suggest you do so. It’s available for free on Adult Swim’s Youtube channel. Go ahead. It’s quite the ride.

SPOILERS BELOW CUT!

WWX is a flirt but LWJ likes it

The other day I was washing my hands and another woman came out the stall a couple seconds after I did. She wasn’t cis, and a different woman waiting for someone to finish up looked angry and opened her mouth to say something. Before she could, I smiled real friendly a this woman who’s just trynna wash her hands and told her I loved her skirt, and we started talking clothes.

The waiting woman was still clearly pissed but she didn’t say anything because she knew I wouldn’t have her back. That’s all it took to keep some poor lady just trynna scrub up from getting harassed.

Sometimes doing the right thing is really hard and kinda scary. Other times all it takes is making it clear that you won’t support someone’s nastiness. It’s a little enough thing to do your part.

Cis women: read this.

Great tip, thank you. I like to think that I’d have no problem standing up and telling someone to go fuck themselves in the event they did actually say something nasty, but preventing that situation is clearly 100 million times better than defending a harassed person after the fact.

when you find an academic source that’s perfect for your paper but it’s behind a pay wall

Deciding to cite it anyway base on the abstract, knowing your professor probably won’t go through and look up every source in works cited

if you guys want to read academic papers but they’re behind a paywall, get the chrome extension Unpaywall. when you visit a site that requires you pay for their journal to view the article, the extension will look for other open access sites that will show you the article for free, and it’s all completely legal. all that money goes to the publisher, the writer of the paper gets none of it. https://unpaywall.org

If you can find out an author’s name, contact them. They may be willing to email it to you.For free. 

Check researchgate.net and academia.edu! Also authors’ professional websites.

SHE’S EXCITED

Aggressively draws more of these two

More of the club au: Keith needs money for university/rents and bills. He’s desperate. His savings are going to finish soon. He’s always loved dancing and pole dance has been a fave of his and he practices it often so when he sees an ad about a new strip club in town needing dancers, he doesn’t hesitate. He knows he’s good at what he does. On audition day, while waiting he meets this super annoying guy named Lance(he forcibly introduced himself) and decides right there that he doesn’t this guy. He goes in, expecting nothing, and he finds himself in front of the two most beautiful humans he has seen ever. They both have silver hair and for a minute Keith wonders if they’re twins.The guy in the deep purple button up has the thickest biceps that even show through the fabric, silver hair and the most gorgeous eyes—is he wearing eye liner?! No that must be his natural eyelashes looking that way. Keith’s gay heart is screaming at him. The woman sitting next to him is another level of gorgeousness. Deep kind blue eyes and silver hair. They like Keith and his moves. He gets the job.(along with annoying brunette) He becomes the star of “Space Angels” club and he tries very hard to hide his massive crush on the hot manager, Shiro.
