dropout why can't I buy mismag2 merch all I want is a shirt with the art on the hoopty pleaaaase

[cheglok-art]

More fountain pen bird sketches I've done recently while feeling kinda bad about art. I REALLY love birds that have a lot of texture in them, like the wrinkles in the skin of their bald heads, or fun feather shapes. And I LOVE a large bill.

Howdy. 👋

Not only will there be a new volume of CHECK, PLEASE! in the works...

But CHECK, PLEASE!: YEAR FIVE will be...

…THE YEAR OF THE FROG. 🐸 🏒 ✨

Below, find a summary of what the newest volume of CHECK, PLEASE! will have to offer… highs, lows, and a whole new SMH!!

Samwell mens hockey’s favorite baker—and championship-winning senior captain—has graduated! How will the team survive? Problems abound as their new captain, Dex, learns that the effortless balance Bitty maintained on the team isn’t as easy as it looks. Then, ultra-aloof Nursey must finally drop his “chill” and get vulnerable in a senior poetry seminar. And to make matters worse, Chowder faces the dreaded ‘SSGS’ and is having the worst season of his college career. But when change arrives at Samwell hockey, it not only threatens to rip the team apart, but could destroy Dex, Nursey, and Chowder’s friendship forever. Before they graduate, to save their team and themselves, the three seniors must come together and ask the question: ‘What does Samwell hockey mean to you?’

I can’t reveal any more spoilers, but I’ll leave you with that question—what does Samwell hockey mean to you? Look out for more Check, Please! news in the months to come!

really one of the things i hate most about the ai fuckening we're currently in is that it positions me as the person wearing a tinfoil hat when i try to suggest that maybe handing over biometric and personal data to tech companies is bad, actually.

like maybe perhaps perchance we don't want it scanning our children's faces to do age verification because we don't know what it's going to do with those scans down the line. maybe we shouldn't be using it like a therapy machine and telling it our deepest, most painful things. maybe we shouldn't be giving it a dossier of our detailed medical information, especially in a world (in the us) where things like not being able to hold pre-existing conditions against someone for insurance is increasingly threatened. perhaps we shouldn't be scanning our faces for funny little short videos into something that can also generate porn on demand with all of the data it's collected.

maybe, stay with me and please stop building the tinfoil hat i can see you putting on my head coworker/friend/casual acquaintance, ai ISN'T a miracle to solve humanity's problems and is instead just more tech churned out by tech bros who have not historically been super great when it comes to morals.

saw somebody make a post about like. some kind of dissatisfaction w/monty’s arc I don’t really remember??? honestly unimportant the IMPORTANT part is that it got me thinking about Monty and the journey he goes through over the course of the season. and I think that it’s actually really important to the themes and the arc of Monty’s character that he does go back to gath at the end, with an extra batch of stories and whimsy. bc the thing is that when we first meet Monty, he left his life of adventure on extremely bad terms - a full on blow out fight w/comfrey that led to him not talking to his crew for years. and by the time we meet him he’s feeling that distance and that lasting negative impression to the point that he’s possibly on the verge of starting to sell out and write fake adventures for the sake of the money and the continued political clout; the years he’s spent lobbying are starting to wear on him.

and so part of what’s really important about him going back to adventuring is realizing that the distance he was feeling was to some extent artificial??? like this life was always right there waiting for him to return. and all that joy is right there and better than he remembered, but the responsibility and the weight that ultimately made him leave is still there too. and so of course his arc doesn’t end with him abandoning responsibility for adventure, bc that would simply never make sense for his character; instead, it ends with him leaving adventuring not out of anger or frustration or a lack of ability like he might have the first time around, but instead out of a conscious commitment to protecting the wonders that his adventures have helped him discover. and so he returns to the same place, but as a different man and with a different relationship to the things he’s doing and the things he’s left behind. like this time it’s not an abandonment of his life as an adventurer, but a choice to move into the next and more sedate stage of it. IDK I thought it was actually a really interesting and well executed foil to the way that characters like pappy and comfrey can’t even think of a concept of retirement that doesn’t feel like its own sort of death but maybe that’s just me

Heads up, especially if you have trouble with unreality:

I've already started seeing Sora videos pop up on other platforms, so just know that if you see this watermark logo:

the video is AI generated. Some of them can be very convincing, so I just wanted to let people know if you haven't already heard of it.

[image id: a white watermark of a cloud with eyes next to the word Sora.]

[shockimage]

in the same vein, google gemini has a logo in the corner of its generated photos. obviously someone could crop it out but given how lazy users of ai can be chances are they wont

Just wanted to bring this moment back from ep 8. People wanted to help Comfrey with her goals, time and time again we see how people in Zood are kind and wanting to help others, esp in Oda as we see mentioned above, but she was, as Brennan so aptly described her in the ap, a narcissist, and couldn't deal with anyone doing it a different way than her, so she once again got herself in trouble with another bank.

Maxwell tries to justify saving Torse and Monty interrupts. Just say he’s your friend. It’s because Max comes from a toxic family. Everything he does and wants has to be justified to prove it has value. But he’s left the family that doesn’t value sentiment and connection and found one that does. He’s found a family that values friendship for friendship’s sake, a family that loves unabashedly. Monty values friendship so highly that after years of estrangement and anger Monty went to save Comfrey. His anger is rooted in love and a sense of betrayal that Comfrey doesn’t have the same mutual respect for friendship. Torse being Maxwell’s friend is enough. Everything else is secondary. They can hash it out once they’re all safe. Comfrey being Monty’s friend is enough. Everything else is secondary. They can hash it out once they’re all safe. That’s why it was important that it was Monty who says it.

Spoilers under the cut for a new perspective on old information about Straka and the Queen of Zern

E14. Iykyk

I think Emily Axford is right that Ludmila is the flesh heart. More specifically, that it is Ludmila's heart.

According to Torse, The Queen of Zern "came to the waste and taught them the secret to carve out their hearts with salt, chalk, and fire, to carve upon them the symbol of naught."

"She took their hearts and added them to the pile behind her throne, and all of the horrors of Zern they could put behind them, no heart to break, no mind to fret, no soul to shudder at the vile acts she put before them."

What if Ludmila was so heartbroken by a perceived betrayal (see: Marya's Greatest Failure) that she carved out her own heart? What if she succumbed to rage so fervently that rebels like Torse still have rage at the front of their minds?

What if her heart is at the bottom of the pile, covered by the hearts of her naughtomata?
