women not wanting to fuck you is natural selection. Next time, try speaking to them with courtesy and respect.
📢 “A huge amount of men between the age of 15 and 50 will not pass on their genes. They will effectively die out of the gene pool ... Should society intervene?” Steven Bartlett asked last year.
Two top podcasters have identified a global decline. The problem, they say, is women

You ever think about how Zapp Branigan was supposed to be played by Phil Hartman, and when that didn't happen due to Hartman's untimely death, Billy West took over. It's a credit to West's talent, because you can hear the emulated Lionel Hutz and Troy McClure in Branigan's voice

My husband said I have absolutely no haters, and I refuse to believe him.
Some of you have got to hate me right? C'mon! I'm pretty selfish and self indulgent! Hate me!

Your first thought should be “holy shit I cannot get these characters out of my head and I HAVE to draw them doing stuff” and NOT about monetising. Harness that passion for at least a year and let the rest fall into place. You gotta love it if you want it to work!!!
What advice would you give an aspiring comic creator? - 🦝

I've been playing with the early releases and I'm very happy with the new IK tools. The Godot team has been spitting out updates like crazy. If you are looking to get into game design, I cannot recommend a better open source and free option.
#Godot 4.6 is out, and all about your flow!
This release puts you and your workflow first with a new theme, flexible docks, and dozens of UX improvements. And Jolt Physics by default, revamped IK, better reflections, and more.
Less wrestling with UI. More making games.

Here’s some old Perfect Tides fanart I did when the Kickstarter for Station to Station was going! I really loved the first PT game. No one is doing it like @meredithgran.com … can’t wait for the new game to come out tomorrow!!! I kinda hope we keep getting games about Mara throughout her whole life.

Fun fact: Black Panthers doing perfectly legal (at the time) open carry in CA in the 1960s spurred then-Governor Reagan to sign the Mulford Act into law in 1965, prohibiting it.
These people have no consistent politics outside a desperate, leering need to keep hold of power and privilege.
