It's Tuesday yet again! And this Tuesday is a special Tuesday, as it was 19 years ago TODAY that I posted the first page of Skin Deep! Oh how far we've come. Thanks for reading! www.skindeepcomic.com
On top of learning useful techniques you also get to learn so much about the world you live in. I never thought I cared much about history until I learned via art history. To truly understand the context and meaning of art you gotta understand the culture it was made in, and that’s NEAT!!
If you do the art yourself, please have the courtesy to learn about at least a little bit of art history, especially techniques. Art school is not a must, but tired of seeing social media artists wanting to ban legitimate techniques, just because they decided so.

Voyager posting: Tom Paris’s interest in the futurism of past cultures almost made me think he had the potential to be interesting but then in the next episode he gets absolutely FURIOUS at Tuvok for not cheating on his wife with Tank Girl and I’m back to hating him again.

-Australia is weird
-Everybody who died shows up at the end as ghosts and makes you cry
-Repo Man

-"I got it, we'll *pretend* to be married! What could go wrong?"
-Englishmen being weird
-Ship hunted by submarine
-Submarine hunted by ship
-Submarine hunted by other submarine
(The first two can be improved by the addition of a submarine.)

The 2024 film The Return is a very compelling adaptation to the end of the Odyssey and also Ralph Fiennes is fuckin JACKED.

Thinking about Greek mythology and the Greek pantheon and how so many stories are “you are forced to make a shitty choice because powers beyond your control put you in an impossible situation” and the Greeks were so real for that. “Hey life truly sucks sometimes and you just gotta do your best.”

One of the few things that has ever made me feel genuinely uncomfortable at furry conventions are people in tactical gear or police uniform as part of their cosplay/fursuit. Really glad it’s not something I’ll have to worry about this year.

When I was in college for graphic design circa 2004-2007, my teachers did their best to teach us non-adobe products and I appreciate that. The problem is that I learned flash and quark and freehand. Which…well. You know.

I see the “technically it’s ephebophelia” crowd is out today, so just a reminder that A) this is NOT a case where technically correct is the best kind of correct and B) the minute you say this, the gods dump you in the “irredeemable creeper” basket and wash their hands thoroughly after touching you.

This whole thread is good but I have direct experience with this part. I worked at Bass Pro Shops HQ in 2008-2009 and people panic-buying ammo because “obama’s gonna take our guns” almost single-handedly got the company through the recession.
The moment elections results came out, Dec. 2008 well into 2009 was a MASSIVE PANIC on guns and ammo. You couldn't even find a box of hunting ammo for Grandpappy's old lever action deer rifle. And an AR and the ammo for it? LOL. Nah. *IF* you found it, it was 10x normal prices.
