Come to think of it, it really is insane that my entire country is burning alive and literally no one in the rest of the world cares. Thousands of Indians are dying every day from the heat, it's 45+ degrees in multiple areas, the government couldn't give two fucks, we're getting severe warnings and red alerts, and not a soul outside of South Asia is speaking about it because why would you ever care about brown people
please keep talking about how Becky from Maryland doesn't like the rising gas prices. It's clearly the more pressing issue.
USA folks, that is a consistent temperature range hitting 113ยฐ. Death Valley temperatures. In Banda, it hovered between 116ยฐ-118ยฐ (47ยฐ-48ยฐ C) for a week straight.
This has been happening all month with little to no international media attention. Here are a few organizations you can check out for resources or to support:
ActionAid India
SEEDS India
GlobalGiving
Raise India (Project Tapan)
Data pads because I forgot about them having their own folder and haven't posted them in ages...

COMPUTER DEATH FUNDRAISER
Hey all! This morning I woke up and accidentally knocked my computer off my desk, and now she isnโt turning on. Now sheโs an old girl, I got scammed by Canada computers and her parts were 13+ years old.
So Iโm getting a new one.
I will be buying one tomorrow, so it would be highly appreciated if you could donate if youโre able, AND ONLY IF YOURE ABLE, I will be getting this either way. As you may know Iโm also preparing for my girlfriend to move in in 2 weeks, so financially I am attempting to save as much as I can, so anything helps donation wise.
If we reach a donation goal of 300$ collectively, I will do an extra stream on Monday of next week where I not only stream discounted commissions, I will also watch FOUR episodes of Transformers Prime.
If we hit a goal of 500$ collectively, I will do that, and also make a miniature sketch zine in july to show my gratitude.
vv You can donate HERE vv
Become a supporter of Archie.Sunshine today!
you can also support me by buying my zines!!
Funny growing up in the late 2000s and seeing constant "don't text and drive" warnings, PSAs telling us to put our phones down behind the wheel, wait until you're home to send that text, a phone-distracted driver is a deadly driver etc etc
Only for modern car manufacturers to be like "we made the car a phone :) now you have to text and drive to change the radio station :)"
This is Inaccessibility!!!
Not having physical buttons means you have to be looking away from the road to use the car and adjust things instead of relying on tactile memory.
Inaccessibility hurts everyone just as accessibility helps everyone!
did you receive abstinence only education in school? (and please say where your school is located in the tags)
yes
no

"Trans men are spouting MRA rhetoric!!!"
:looks inside:
Trans men are asking to be included in discussions about abortion access, where they, transmascs, and enbies (particularly if they're racialised) are THE most vulnerable group.
Trans men from the global south are talking about their specific vulnerabilities and the horrific violence they face.
Trans men are asking the rest of the community to please care more about the fact that their hormones are a controlled drug and their identities are already on a controlled drug registry that can be very easily cross-referenced with agab to Pick Out The Trannies.
Trans men are talking about how TMOC have been targeted for sexual & physical harrassment because of their transmasculinitiy in detention centres.
Trans men are asking the queer community to stop claiming they have made 'no historical contributions' when 1) they have, and 2) they have been violently erased, institutionalised, and forced into marriage throughout history, and even those lucky few who went stealth were often discovered through forcible outing.
Trans men are begging the queer community to stop spreading transphobic lies that predatorjacket them as dangerous, violent rapists.
Trans men are mentioning that they are often ENTIRELY banned from playing on men's OR women's high-level sport teams, because those teams are allowed to 'make their own decisions' on whether to permit them while using a banned steroid, which usually, you guessed it, means they can't compete.
If you wanna call me a Trans Men's Rights Activist because I care about the rights of trans men, along with every other member of the trans community... go right ahead, I guess.
Something I try to keep in mind when making art that looks vintage is keeping a limited color pallette. Digital art gives you a very wide, Crisp scope of colors, whereas traditional art-- especially older traditional art-- had a very limited and sometimes dulled use of color.
This is a modern riso ink swatch, but still you find a similar and limited selection of colors to mix with. (Mixing digitally as to emulate the layering of ink riso would be coloring on Multiply, and layering on top of eachother ๐)
If you find some old prints, take a closer look and see if you can tell what colors they used and which ones they layered... a lot of the time you'll find yellow as a base!
Misprints can really reveal what colors were used and where, I love misprints...
Something else I keep in the back of my mind is: how the human eye perceives color on paper vs. a screen. Ink and paint soaks into paper, it bleeds, stains, fades over time, smears, ect... the history of a piece can show in physical wear. What kind of history do you want to emulate? Misprinted? Stained? Kept as clean as possible, but unable to escape the bluing damages of the sun? It's one of my favorite things about making vintage art. Making it imperfect!
You can see the bleed, the wobble of the lines on the rug, the fading, the dirt... beautiful!!
Thinking in terms of traditional-method art while drawing digital can help open avenues to achieving that genuine, vintage look!
ALSO!!
YELLOWING!! Digital art is very blue-light based. Cold, clean, flat. But traditional art has warmth to it. Why?
Over time, paper gets yellowed with dust, oil, dirt, and nicotine from cigarettes! So colors got warmer. This makes art look pretty aged, on top of the slight toned papers and hand made/factory made inks they printed with.
Learn how to simulate retro artwork in this three-part series dedicated to the history of printing methods and how to recreate them digitall
If I told you to think of a Silver Age comic book, what image does your mind conjure? Chances are, youโre picturing a comic with bold linesโฆ
Dang y'all like old art!! Here's a couple resources too for those who wanna learn some more :]
------------------------------------------
ADDITION: I KEEP MEANING TO MENTION THIS-- YOU CAN SET YOUR CANVAS TO CMYK INSTEAD OF RGB FOR BETTER COLORS! :D
CMYK is meant for printing, while RBG is a light spectrum color setting.
You can look up how to do this for whichever drawing program you use since it can change from program-to-program!
