Don’t be a Slowpoke! Get your Desert Bus 2017 t-shirt here: https://www.fangamer.com/products/desert-bus-11

This hits me hard. Of all the years I've been watching and supporting Desert Bus for Hope, the DB8 shirt is the only one I was unable to get. It is my shame.
Here it is: Best stuff first
Extremely handy if you follow a lot of people and hate missing anything good.
Best Stuff First moves the best stuff on your dashboard—mhm!—right up to the top.
It’s rolling out this week on iOS and Android, and comes with this Help Center article.
Thanks! ✌️
I don’t have the option to turn it off yet, but chances are good that my dash is still affected. Chances are good that y'all have been affected. Whatever you do, keep checking your settings tab for the ability to TURN THIS OFF. Because we creators are gonna suffer from this.
————
There’s a chance that y'all might not have gotten this option yet, but i finally did. For the sake of all creators out there, check your general settings and look for this option. If you have it, TURN IT OFF. Don’t let some algorithm dictate what you see.
Don’t just like this. It needs to be spread so people know. Not only will your feed be out of chronological order, but creators who aren’t hella popular are suffering lack of exposure because of this. This is the one thing i WILL pressure to reblog.
Last week I completed my webcomic, Dregs.Today, I sorted and piled up all of the inked pages, seen here. Those are stubs of pencils and erasers used in the creation of those pages, as well as a pen nib that I broke somewhere along the way. I wanted to share this image so that I could share the most important thing I learned on this difficult artistic journey.
Do the work.
It’s really that simple, and it’s really that hard. There are no secrets or tricks or shortcuts. Being an artist is about doing a lot of work. I spent many years in a perpetual state of preparation for when I would be “ready” or “good enough” to start a body of work. I convinced myself for a long time that one day I would reach a magical standard of ability and then produce a flawless project utilizing those skills.
Turns out I was telling myself a dreadful lie that gave me a convenient out from doing any real work. Ideas come cheap and easy, and you can sustain a fantasy of what your work could be indefinitely. Dregs was the moment I declared “no more” and actually got to task. I gave myself carte blanche to suck as bad as I had to and make as many mistakes as necessary to finally learn how to make comics. And as I discovered, the best practice in all the world was in the complete execution. Practice and study has its place, but it’s only by running through the whole routine from start to finish that you gain a genuine understanding of how it all works.
So what I really want to scream from the rooftops is to stop talking yourself out of doing the work. Stop waiting until you’re “ready”. Stop practicing until you’re “good enough” to start. Stop yearning for the day when you begin that thing you’ve always wanted to make. Just go for it. It may be scary. It will probably be hard. But I solemnly swear it will be so worth it, and you will surprise yourself with what you can do that you thought you couldn’t. You will learn so much and develop the skills that you crave. You can do it.

Last year my mom lost both her job and home, so she moved into my apartment. We've squeezed by but now my job has severely cut down my hours and she's been unable to find work since relocating; now that her unemployment's run out we currently only have income of about $600/mo. To put it bluntly we are in no shape financially to get through Feb. With this fundraiser I'm looking to help with expenses like rent, food & electricity, and anything made beyond that to buffer us towards the next month.
Just wanted to cross-post this here. I don’t really discuss my personal life on here much but the past year has taken a toll on my living situation and as it says at the link, my and my mother’s financial situation has gotten pretty dire. While there’s potentially some light on the horizon February is unavoidably going to be rough at this point. I hate even having to ask for this, but even if people can toss in a couple bucks or just spread the word to your rich altruistic friends, any and all help is appreciated.
(Full disclosure, I’m not really looking to hit the $1k goal; I wasn’t totally sure how PlumFund worked when I was setting it up so I went high to avoid caps or fees or something, but still shooting for around $500-600 to hit a safe buffer for the month.)
Thanks a lot, everyone.
Alternatively, I shuttered my Patreon because I felt bad knowing I’d have to do this while not attending to that properly but I’m still always open for commissions.

I have never seen grape ice cream.
Actually, i know why this is:
Grapes contain a a special molecule Anthocyanin that prevents freezing, so you’d keep ending up with grape milk. Many ice cream companies and manufacturers have made bold attempts at grape ice cream, hardly any of them successful.
But then, finally, those geniuses at Ben and Jerry’s did it. So why don’t we have grape ice cream?
Here’s the thing: Ben confessed in a People Magazine interview in 1984 that he had a huge crush on Becky and promised to create the flavor just for her. Knowing the history of grape ice cream, she coyly requested it, thinking it to be impossible. Ben began to include the grape skin and juice to better see the differences between batches. While he didn’t understand the science behind this at the time, he found that including the skins increased the levels of anthocyanin enough to make the ice cream freeze. “Becky was impressed,” he remarked, “We were at her house, alone. I gave her the scoop – on a cone. I was really getting somewhere. She was laughing and happy. She couldn’t believe I did it. I’ll never forget what happened next.”
“Becky jokingly gave her dog a lick from the cone. He liked it and took a couple of licks. Then he just gasped and dropped dead. He flipped down onto the floor and was just gone. I had no idea grapes are toxic to dogs. Specifically to the anthocyanin. Becky was devasted. I had invented a deadly dog poison, and I definitely wasn’t getting anywhere with her now.”
Yeah.
tldr; The reason we don’t have grape ice cream is because Ben from Ben and Jerry’s killed Jerry’s hot sister’s dog with it.
holy fuck
Too bad this is completely false.
Anthocyanin is found in grapes, but it’s also found in black raspberries and cherries, two flavors of ice cream Breyers sells. Ergo, anthocyanin doesn’t prevent freezing.
Furthermore, if anthocyanin prevented freezing, how would increasing the levels of anthocyanin make the ice cream freeze?
Lastly, grapes and raisin can be toxic to dogs causing renal failure. While the exact mechanism of this is unknown, it is estimated that it would take 3 grams of grapes or raisins per kilogram of the dog’s mass. While a scoop of ice cream is approximately 120 grams, I doubt a dog would consume enough grape with two licks to render it immediately dead.

Tfw you’re a deer and you just want your deer snacks so you bow politely and respectfully by Dami Lee
These deer are in Nara, Japan, and are actually conditioned to bow for their deer cookies. If memory serves, they are actually viewed as sacred animals treated with the utmost respect, which includes bowing to them.

Nothing was formatted! Anglefire was our only hope of personal expression and we used midi music versions of Savage Garden songs to show how we felt! Pages took minutes to load! Chatrooms were unregulated and haphazard and there were NO PMs or DMs, everything was public!
*shakes fist*
There was no place to easily upload video content, and if you managed it, people had to download it – there was no streaming video!
