So smirch also adds a gradient/filter thing like stained... we all just need to play around with it a little more... we’re on the edge of a collective breakthrough...

Hi! I'm your gifter for the FE trick-or-treat event! I have a few question for you. 1. Do you prefer siding with Nohr, Hoshido, or none? 2. Would you prefer the story be set in medieval time (FE-esque) or modern-ish (guns are a thing) or futuristic (interstellar travel is a thing)? 3. What's your favorite lesbian ship in fates?

WHAT A GREAT SET OF QUESTIONS!!!

1. I prefer when an actual side is picked, be it Hoshido or Nohr; I think it leads to a more interesting story that way. (Although that might have more to do with how unimpressed I was with the third path’s writing.)

2. I would prefer the story be medieval or futuristic. I like historical fiction and I like sci-fi as well. Read a lot of great sci-fi fanfiction and cute fanfic fairy tales.

3. My favorite lesbian ship would have to be Rinkah/Charlotte, closely followed by Kagero/Orochi and Elise/Sakura. I realize that contradicts with what I said above with Hoshido and Nohr being preferable to Valla. I promise, no matter what you make, it will be a treat!

How furries became the Medicis of digital illustration.

I got to contribute to this article! Really nice little piece about furry art and indie artists. :)

I feel like I haven’t mentioned it lately, but yeah, furries are usually some of the best customers to work with. I have MUCH fewer problems with these guys than standard clients, and it’s an easy niche to break into. Can’t recommend it enough!

#furries are a-ok in my book

Scientists describe workers trapped for years in "a hostile environment in total darkness."

For the past several years, a group of researchers has been observing a seemingly impossible wood ant colony living in an abandoned nuclear weapons bunker in Templewo, Poland, near the German border. Completely isolated from the outside world, these members of the species Formica polyctena have created an ant society unlike anything we’ve seen before.

The Soviets built the bunker during the Cold War to store nuclear weapons, sinking it below ground and planting trees on top as camouflage. Eventually a massive colony of wood ants took up residence in the soil over the bunker. There was just one problem: the ants built their nest directly over a vertical ventilation pipe. When the metal covering on the pipe finally rusted away, it left a dangerous, open hole. Every year when the nest expands, thousands of worker ants fall down the pipe and cannot climb back out. The survivors have nevertheless carried on for years underground, building a nest from soil and maintaining it in typical wood ant fashion. Except, of course, that this situation is far from normal.

Polish Academy of Sciences zoologist Wojciech Czechowski and his colleagues discovered the nest after a group of other zoologists found that bats were living in the bunker. Though it was technically not legal to go inside, the bat researchers figured out a way to squeeze into the small, confined space and observe the animals inside. Czechowski’s team followed suit when they heard that the place was swarming with ants. What they found, over two seasons of observation, was a group of almost a million worker ants whose lives are so strange that they hesitate to call them a “colony” in the observations they just published in The Journal of Hymenoptera.

Because conditions in the bunker are so harsh, constantly cold, and mostly barren, the ants seem to live in a state of near-starvation. They produce no queens, no males, and no offspring. The massive group tending the nest is entirely composed of non-reproductive female workers, supplemented every year by a new rain of unfortunate ants falling down the ventilation shaft.
