Happy #WebcomicDay !
I invite you to observe our heroes as they:
• dodge fireballs,
• make suspicious new friends(?),
• stumble face-first into eldritch machinations,
• and collect improbably cuddly creatures along the way.

my only notes to people under 30: your 30s aren't for ditching fandom, they're for re-evaluating all the "cringe" stuff you liked as a teenager through the lens of someone who can appreciate it fully, going, "that owned, actually," and becoming even more unhinged about it. please look forward to it.

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm.
The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him.
Happy Black History Month.

Many years ago, I read a cleaning/decluttering article where the author described hauling out a load of trash "roughly the size of a large clown".
It's been my standard unit of measurement for this chore ever since.
(I took out a whole clownload of trash this morning.) 💪️

Apparently figure skating is the anti-anxiety balm that I didn't know I needed.
This routine in particular. ✨️💫️ I swear I could feel my nervous system's HP regenerating.
(Best in full screen mode with a cup of tea!)

if you think about bad things all the time you're gonna feel bad all the time and then you'll be less effective. sometimes you have to think about a bumblebee sleeping inside of a cup shaped flower. the world stops for this bumblebee

Echoing this to say that $1 a month to a creator whose work you like is equivalent to easily a thousand ad-supported views on their videos. Even a little bit of support makes a hugely outsized difference - pick your favourites and support where you can.
Philosophy Tube is made by properly paid artists; no AI slop, no sussy sponsorships from mobile games and mattress companies. If you want there to still be a place for proper art on the internet then please support your friendly neighbourhood content creator, whether that’s me or someone else ❤️
