School Is Making Me Post Infrequently 🥲

I’m “SpicyShakes”, a.k.a. “SMACKADOOS”. And I like making cool stuff and sharing it to the world whenever I have the time! (she/her) (NO COMMISSIONS sry) [GIGANTIC indie webcomic/graphic novel series in the works, heavily inspired by battle shounen]

These two are ICONIC. They are BOTH fan favorites… but for different reasons.

So the first official trailer for the Kagurabachi anime just got released a few days ago, so of course I had to celebrate w/ some fanart!

(100% canon HakuHiro interaction btw-)

POV: ur abt to get you skull bashed in bc you pissed off Zanka

This meme reminds me of that one moment during summer school, where a kid kept farting loudly in class. The teacher kept telling him to stop farting, but the farting kid casually kept insisting to him that he was so gassy because of the carrots he ate. And I was defending that kid the whole time, as I understood that it was something about his condition that he just couldn’t control.

Later on that day, while I was walking back home, some other guy from my class suddenly came up to me, and in the most compassionately sincere way, he said to me "thank you.." And he refused to even elaborate to me on that, he just ran off by that point.

So guys, I think changed that guy's life in a profound way. I think I taught him a valuable lesson... that you shouldn't pick on someone for things that are beyond their control.

This all happened because a kid farted in class, mind you.

HAPPY (LATE) NEW YEARS, EVERYONE! 🥳🎉

+ like my new watermark? I designed it for several hours to get it just right 🤩

The year 2025 is somehow both incredibly wild yet incredibly boring all at the same time, simultaneously.

[spicyshakes]

Like yeah, there’s the government’s and other corrupt companies’ fuckass decisions that exploit ppl’s privacy and safety, to the extreme absurd brainrot of mainstream consumers (f*ckin’… Dubai chocolate Crumbl cookie Labubu or some sh*t) (either that or whatever tf those gen alpha kids are on, w/ their abuse of slang terms and whatnot), and yada yada yada.

Plus, yeah, I know there’s been some great stuff that’s come out this year — such as K-pop Demon Hunters, Hollow Knight: Silksong, Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, etc.

But at least for right now, not much all that new, groundbreaking or exciting is really happening. If I’m gonna be honest, my current social media feed is SO LAME — “lame” as in just underwhelming and disappointing to me, as there’s nothing uploaded recently that actually brings anything new to the table. I’m only either seeing the same old stuff that I feel like I’ve already heard a hundred times before, or news/info that’s only really trivial and generally doesn’t affect my life in the long run. Like, seriously, it’s gotten to the point where I would rather spend my free time reading a good book, I’m not even kidding (and I unfortunately don’t have that many novels to read at home, mind you).

But hey, I’m hoping that as we wait for longer, we can live to see brighter days. Eventually, in a few years, decades, or maybe even a century, we may actually experience the cyberpunk or frutiger aero future that we always dreamed of, or perhaps something completely unexpected, who knows. But all we have to know is that our species as humans are always getting smarter by every new generation and advancement we make, and that we should continue learning for the sake of helping not only ourselves, but also for the entire world we thrive on. And yes, it’s hard to maintain a fulfilling life in a world that (alas, in our timeline) happens to be centered around hate. But we can never predict how good or bad our reality is going to get throughout the time we spend existing, but all that matters is that we continue to exist for as long as we can — after all, we may not experience this view of it all ever again once we greet death.

So, onwards… let’s keep going.

[spicyshakes]

Btw this is a rework of this ugly ahh sketch I drew a literal year ago, lol

And it looks so sloppy mostly because I used to use stubby worn-out wooden pencils instead of mechanical ones. Ahh… how time flys~

I've created a primary post for my new favorite WLW ship. Two diametrically opposed comic strip characters (a pin-up girl from 60s Hungary and an American working woman of the 70s/80s) who look so gosh darn cute together. I had never really given much thought to Cathy other than that I knew it used to run in newspapers and was considered something of a target; Jucika I barely knew anything about either aside from the obvious porn.

Yet I've fallen in love with this ship. The artwork from both @vintdooforreal and @bluerm is just so good in different ways. A perpetually-stressed out woman like Cathy deserves a woman who loves her back and helps her (and not the useless, annoying men she was forever dating or even married to). Jucika meanwhile gets a woman who loves her for who she is and not just because she's stunningly attractive.

I have now finished and posted Sketchpad -- a fic detailing how the two meet and change each others' lives for the better.

Again, full credit for the creation of this ship goes to Vintdoo and Bluerm.

If you wanna talk this ship or Cathy in general, join the Cathy Chat Discord:

I LOVE CRACKSHIPS when writers put this much thought into them <3

This one is also a honorable mention (dude’s just a chill guy yn)

🎶blue hair, blue tie, hiding in your WiFi~🎶

This one’s a good choice for if you’re currently living in a crisis (or if ur just a malevolent menace, idk, ur pick)

for anyone in the UK, needing to access discord and unable or unwilling to provide an ID:

[thalassous]

as someone with experience in the discord console, unfortunately they made it a little trickier than just ctrl + shift + i about four years ago, i believe.

specifically what you're going to want to do is find settings.json in %appdata%/discord or the mac equivalent which is found with finder > go > go to folder. there is a setting there titled "DANGEROUS_ENABLE_DEVTOOLS_ONLY_ENABLE_IF_YOU_KNOW_WHAT_YOURE_DOING": and if it is not, copy and paste "DANGEROUS_ENABLE_DEVTOOLS_ONLY_ENABLE_IF_YOU_KNOW_WHAT_YOURE_DOING": true into the .json and then, only then you can do crtl + shift + i or command + option + i on mac.

best of luck!

[thesplendidsnout]

So. ^THIS^ extra-step guide totally works!

When you've enabled dev tools and opened Discord's console, input THIS code:

Object.values(webpackChunkdiscord_app.push([[Symbol()],{},r=>r.c])).find(x => x?.exports?.default?.__proto__?.getCurrentUser).exports.default.getCurrentUser().ageVerificationStatus = 3;

So a few days ago, I watched that new Fantastic Four movie…
