What is the opening monologue and who are the hosts of the show?
I'll bet you monsters sure lead interesting lives. I said to my girlfriend just the other day, I said, gee, I bet monsters sure are interesting, I said. The places you must go and the people you must see my stars. And I'll bet you meet a lot of interesting people too. I'm always interested in meeting interesting people. Welcome back to the show, everyone. I'm Jason Weaver.
And I'm Annie Kay Henderson. And this is the read. Thank you for joining us.
In fact. Did that opening monologue sound familiar?
It did indeed. Sounded like a classic. Cartoon scene between Bugs Bunny and
Gossamer.
Oh, is that its name?
Yeah, his name is Gossamer.
Never knew that. I don't think I've ever seen that thing outside of That one scene, but yeah. When he was getting his nails done.
Yeah. Oh for shame, look at those fingernails. Which fact, they're yellow and had dirt on any time.
Like Lake Stanfield in that one movie.
Well, okay, girls, let's get back to the program. Um, we'll start with which movie? I
wanna say I wanna say it was the photograph with Issa Rae.
Oh, I never saw that.
Oh, okay. I wanna say it was that one. I'm like, did nobody catch this? But maybe not.
This week Black's Excellence is going over to a beautiful woman named Danielle Udogarania. I'm so sorry, I'm sure I said this wrong. You mean so much to me. I'm an ignorant American with a Florida public school education. Back to you, babes. Danielle also goes by the name Ebonix with an X online. Love that. And she's a multi-award-winning technical artist, cultural consultant, um, and coder. And the reason she's getting black excellence uh from me today is because she has worked tirelessly and happily in the advancement or towards the advancement of black hair in video games. Oh nice. The authenticity that is black hair. In video games, now if you're a gamer like myself, um then you're likely aware that many
I'm talking about most video games with black characters in it have wretched hairstyles to choose from when it comes to black characters. They either have like hair that don't look like a black person hair at all, or they have like two hairstyles maybe. Right. That look like they could be a black person's hair. A little curly. Or a little curly frog.
I was about to say it's either like twists or braids or something or a little curly fro and that's it.
And the furrow looks wretched. Oh yeah. It doesn't move.
Right. It just doesn't look real or anything, but the I honestly don't know if that's worse or when the black characters are just a darker version of the white ones and nothing else is different. And nothing else is
different.
I don't know which one is
worse.
It's like they're both
terrible. Thin lips, tiny nose, blue blue eyes. It's like Ah
Ghetto
Well Ebonix Danielle um has modded the Sims. If you were familiar with The Sims and black folk who love The Sims, you know the niggas don't play that fucking game without mods. Let's be honest.
They do not.
Like let my sim have The right Bantu knots and a Talfar bag. Let's get it together. People. Um but yeah, she's uh created tools and like blender add-ons and things like this that let designers and even developers, gaming companies create hairstyles that look better and look real and have movement to it. And she's even made tools that have like local AI instead of generative AI. So you still have to design the locks themselves. But they can that tool can help you like Adjust the kinkiness to it. Right, that's fun. Right, that's fun. Right. Or something like that without ha you know what I mean? Yeah. But it isn't like building the code out for you or you're not you can't place in a prompt and then the tool builds it.
Gotcha. Right. So just based on the the clips I've seen uh on her page on Instagram it is E B O N I X Sims. Um, she even did a panel with Megan Astallion. Oh wow. I think it was called Hottie's Love the Sims or something. Um but yeah, like I said, if you're a gamer, please go check out this lady's page, also ebonics.com, and just get into what is happening there. Get into what is happening there. Even the way that hair is parted.
