In his home town of Taylor, TX, today is celebrated as #TexAvery day. In celebration of the man that helped make the golden age of animation what it was. He helped make #Cartoons a little more for everyone, not just kids. And made some of the best #LooneyTunes shorts of the bunch. And some work at MGM. Including my favorite, Droopy. Please enjoy this banger theme song from a retrospective show made by #CartoonNetwork in the 90s.

Also covering #Criterion's ambivalence to animation. And how animation was first on #WarnerDiscovery's chopping block.

The clip comes from a statement about the "elasticity of the Disney brand", that it could have more "adult" stuff like PamAndTommy. This bypasses #AdultAnimation like #FamilyGuy, #AdultSwim, or #FX's (therefore, Disney's) #Archer.

Hey fun fact animation fans and those not in the know! When a big fat-cat says stuff like "animation is just for kids" it's a way for them to downplay the importance of the medium to avoid paying more to everyone involved! #animationisforeveryone
