Wayne Brady as king dice is a bad move for a lot of reasons

The game

Even though none of the characters speak words, they do make reaction noises. King dice's voice in the game is at least interpreted as deep, even if it can't be interpreted as raspy.

The history

King dice is based off of cab calloway and other jazz musicians of that era. Even though in the game King dice isn't characterized as a jazz singer, they have him come out on stage in the cartoon doing scat. There's definitely an acknowledgment of where his design came from, and they went with Wayne Brady.

The fannon

For years, The voice dubbing part of the fan community has characterized King dice with a deep but admittedly not always raspy voice. He's also usually accompanied with a faux southern accent. Tennessee / Kentucky... Maybe you can consider it North or South Carolina. Wayne goes against everything that has already been established, and having Wayne do scat was a sensory disorienter. Going against the fannon is never a good move.

The union busting

Hiring actors to do voice acting is circumventing the voice actors unions. Long story short, it's union busting to hire someone who isn't a voice actor to do voice acting. There are a few online articles that can go into well-research to detail about how celebrity voice acting is a difficulty for professional unionized voice actors. Look into any resources of your choice and accessibility about that issue. Of course, of course this isn't a problem if Wayne Brady is in a voice actors union. I don't know if he is or not. 

In conclusion; I'll be hard-pressed that there any good reasons why Wayne Brady was selected to voice King dice for the cartoon. It makes me unmotivated to look into the cartoon any further.

Bewelcome won't get any better

With the recent implosion of Couchsurfing, people are flocking over to bewelcome and trusted roots in great numbers. Trusted Roots is pretty bare-bones in terms of user-to-user communication. They have a private messaging system, and they have a meat system that leaves much to be desired. But TR could possibly be focusing more on hosts and guests rather than Meats, but everything about it is pretty basic. Except for the map. Their map is actually very exceptional. Bewelcome has a lot of obvious potential to replace couch surfing in terms of popularity and usage, but unfortunately it won't. The main reason I've observed is that it's run by an older generation that isn't willing to shake on its Traditional Values for a younger Generations concerns. And my personal experience, I've made a suggestion and a group that were both rejected. I suggested a blocking feature, because with the growth of a user use usage, it's important for people to have agency over ...

Sonic the hedgehog hot take Sonic Boom

I don't know how or why, but they made #SonicBoom a situational comedy aimed at children. Children don't really go through situations that make their lives entertaining, so they really sat back and relied on Fourth Wall breaking to be relatable. Played really hard into the will they won't they between Sonic and Amy when we already know they won't. Hardly, had Shadow in there, but he shouldn't have been there, at all. It would have been best to leave Shadow out of it. With that, Sonic Boom broke all the rules that had been established throughout various parts of the Sonic Universe and up until then remained consistent.  If you're asking what could possibly can be consistent throughout the Sonic Multiverse, I have very simple answers to that question. Sonic is blue. Sonic goes fast. Sonic is always ready for action! Sonic Boom Sonic was pretty lazy, didn't even seem to like being a hero most of the time. The blue was questionable, and rarely did he go fast. He...

Takoda Institute and adult education program REVIEW

The video: https://youtu.be/Uxcfu9c28YM this is a review of The takoda Institute adult education on Franklin avenue in Minneapolis Minnesota! Availability - they have reasonable daytime hours, 8 - 3 and 4. Accessibility - as someone who admittedly isn't disabled, I would say that the building is easy to navigate with wide hallways and a lot of movable furniture. The doorways do seem kind of narrow to me, so I don't know how someone with wheelchair would get into some of the rooms. But if someone who isn't wheelchair-bound I don't know what the necessary with is. But they feel narrow to me is an able-bodied person. Location - the main office in a lot of the adult education programs in a right on cedar and Franklin. These are bus routes blue Line, 22, 2, 67, and a 9 mainly. I would say that's a great location with high Public transportation traffic. cedar avenue and Franklin avenue are not so great during rush hour for personal vehicles. they do have their own parking...
