Honestly it saddens me that there isn't more people talking about OpenToonz, and this fork in particular:

I was wondering "hey, why DON'T we have open source software for quality 2D animation"? -- except we *do* have it and not enough people know about it.

Pretty sure this eBay listing exists entirely because this person wanted to show off their incredible nails

#drawing finished this morning!

I want a shirt that says in block letters:

I’M TRANS BUT I CAN’T PROVE IT

I've been wanting to take this photo for a long time, and I finally was there at late enough that I could get the shot.

I learned a bunch from this one (and didn't have the lens I wanted to use for it 'cause I broke it ;~;) and will try it again for a better result some time in the near future. I feel this was a good proof of concept, though. ^^

THIS. Even if you’re dark, you can still burn!

I made a thing!!!

Developers who re-used open source software in violation of license, to enable homebrew and "backup" content to be played on the Nintendo Switch, have implemented nasty DRM on their paid product.

Pirated piracy software has anti-piracy measures. https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2018/06/switch-pirates-dont-want-you-to-pirate-their-piracy-enabling-firmware/

From the article:

"But in fact, civil rights leaders, while they did believe in the power of nonviolence, knew that their success depended on disruption and coercion as much — sometimes more — than on dialogue and persuasion. They knew that the vast majority of whites who were indifferent or openly hostile to the demands of civil rights would not be moved by appeals to the American creed or to bromides about liberty and justice for all. Polite words would not change their behavior."

Happy Pride Month to all of you, especially if you can't wave your flag or haven't found it yet.

Harlan Ellison, the man who once bragged about getting fired from Disney because he loudly and graphically described his treatment for a Mickey-Mouse porno to everyone in the cafeteria, has died. Thoughts: https://xinjinmeng.dreamwidth.org/36934.html

this is how particle physics works

honestly that's my writing advice: don't take it too seriously
look at a meme or a joke, say "Oh ha that's just like my character"
think about what that says about them, can you build on that?
it goes even better with a friend
in a few minutes, them dumbest idea can become tragic backstory, intriguing plot point, a goal, a trait, anything!
know about your characters more than the serious moments, they need something more to have depth

"I’m not here to take drugs, or get drunk, I’m not really looking to hook up; in fact, once I get in, if you dance too close to me I’ll probably move. I’m here as a 45-year-old woman, to be on my own, surrounded by techno music played on one of the best sound systems in the world, the harder and louder the better." http://www.thewhitereview.org/feature/really-techno/ This is so delicious. #technoqueers #techno

@noelle so she's really depressed and she figures she'll order a pizza... or two... or three... and then the pizza delivery guy shows up, and the music starts up, right? And he helps step her through realizing that the incessant dread she feels is about future events which haven't happened yet, rooted in a condemnation of herself which she'd never apply to other people.
