My favorite part of the episode is White Diamond calling Steven childish because he has been acting emotional and fragile for the entire story’s arch. This portrays a really mindset that “adults” often displays: that adulthood is about being flawless and emotionless and feeling superior to everyone, that opening up emotionally is a flaw, like those parents always telling their children “don’t cry, you’re not a baby”, “why are you always so sensitive?”, “you’re not supposed to act like this”.

When White Diamond tells Steven he needs the Crystal Gems because they are inferior to him, she is actually talking about herself, her court, the Diamonds, Pink Diamond. She needs those who she considers “inferior” and “weak” so she can continue abusing them to assert her fake supremacy and perfection above everyone else. This is often how toxic adulthood works in our society.

All of them together having fun is more than I could ask

season 1 // “change your mind”

LOOK. AT. THESE. CUTIES.

Are ya bored? Got some time to spare? Sure ya do. My webcomic updated. Chapter 17 page 31 is up. Read it.

Why do I draw elaborate unrelated-to-the-current-page images every time my comic updates? Well, I gotta entice people somehow, yanno!

R.I.P.

*Here lies Todd Allison and the Petunia Violet by Nozmo. This was a mystery/adventure/comedy/thriller webcomic set in the 1920′s of Melbourne Australia about a perky Aborigine girl named Petunia Elkwood and her antisocial, but brilliant next-door-neighbor, Todd Allison. The two of them get caught up in a mystery involving the mysterious bomber, Violet, whom Todd Allison is trying to stop along with his investigative team, and how it involves Petunias brothers, eccentric and dark politician Elijah and adopted and calm, but spontaneous Meredith. Twists and turns and secrets are thrown here and there, but can Todd Allison and Petunia solve the crime and make it out alive?

Sadly, we’ll never know

The webcomic was archived from what I discovered today and so it’s cancelled.Researching the news once I was informed by the media, it would appear as if Nozmo was struggling and has also disappeared from the media as well. No word on where or how she’s doing other then the fact that the comic is cancelled. This isn’t the first time I’ve seen this happen and it’s not a good feeling to me either. My mind goes into a dark place thinking this and right now I’m sad and concerned over what’s going on. I hope Nozmo’s okay. When you’re not active on a project your working on (especially for an extended period of time) it tends to die out and lose interest from its providers and programmers, so it lets them go. I kept myself busy with other things to pass the time and occupy myself through other interests and fandoms, but I always did, in a blue moon, check to see the updates on the webcomic. Now that it’s gone, it really bums me out. I stumbled upon that webcomic some time ago and read it like three times (even the two backstories, The Daydreamings of Todd Allison and All or Nothing Gamble) and we are left now on a cliffhanger just when things were getting good. (sigh) guess we now have a fond memory to look back on now and never know how it ends. Such a shame. It was really fun reading it and imagining the characters voices in my mind along with the theme music. Nice art, cool characters, interesting plot, big mysteries and good humor all gone. Oh well, It was fun while it lasted. Farewell, Fandom.

Farewell, Todd Allison and the Petunia Violet

P.S.: Nozmo, I hope you’re okay

Millennials Hate Black Friday – and we’re enjoying its slow death

Growing up, I remember watching the classic holiday films that showed frantic parents racing to buy the newest gadget for their spoiled brats.

This was Black Friday – the day after Thanksgiving where stores across the country slashed prices off of everything that your kids wanted and junk that you didn’t need but thought you did. Because grotesque capitalism.

This was an American tradition that reflected my parents’ eccentric sense of keeping up with the Joneses’.

A recession, a digital divide, and some social-life lessons learned later, millennials could care less about running to stores early in the morning to fight for crap that we most likely have already.

As a 24-year old finally “adulting,” I won’t be shopping on Black Friday like my parents did and I’m cool with that.

For one, Black Friday is against what millennials stand for philosophically.

The idea of waiting till the end of the year to purchase movies, music, and anything else for a discount is outdated within itself.  Most of my friends like to buy things on release – who doesn’t have Adele’s new album already? To wait longer than a week for new music or any gadget would be a week too long. Our generation prides itself on being the first to have it – Black Friday would be asking us to be patient for “deals” – yeah, no.

Second, this shopping event predicates itself on us going into malls and large department stores – who does that anymore?

I don’t remember the last time I went to the mall for anything. Shopping at multiple stores by foot early seems so ancient – I don’t remember doing it since the dreadful days of back-to-school shopping when I was twelve. The Internet has made the idea of running out of bed to grab deals basically pointless when your fingers can do all of the clicking.

Third, are the deals really worth the hassle? Nope.

If it isn’t over 50% off, that’s not a deal to me. Seriously, if I were even inspired to climb out of bed after a food-coma to go “shopping” it would feel like a joke to inconvenience my sanity just for the additional states tax to be removed. I rather pay that if it meant not wasting an Uber ride, patience, and morals in order to get a deal that really isn’t one. Sorry, but marking off something that most likely was on sale the week before isn’t impressive. Plus, let’s not forget the New Year’s deals that will probably be even better.

More importantly, Black Friday isn’t innovate or creative – it’s corporate and everything Millennials despise of the previous generation.

So why would anyone think it’s impressive to partake in a rat race for a sweater that most likely everyone will have? I crave originality, a sense of giving gifts that are more personalized that show my thoughtfulness. The discounted scarf and coat set from a department store isn’t a gift that says, “I put thought into this” – but simply, “I got this on sale and you will deal.” That being said, I find that my best holiday gifts had more sentimental value than the discounts I personally received. Last Christmas, I gave my mother my college degree in a personalized frame that I had bought before Black Friday. A very active shopper, my mother said she never seen a frame like it anywhere else.

That’s what the holiday’s are about – the thought, not the sale.

Millennials get that more than I think my parents’ generation did. But who could blame them in an era that had more Saturday morning cartoons that brainwashed their kids into thinking they had to get that “must-have” toy of the year?

It’s safe to say that my generation is still trying to understand where it stands on such shopping habits and trends, but at least I can say that Black Friday is one tradition that we’re ready to be dead on arrival.

It’s out!

I illustrated for Disney’s MULAN book “Mulan’s Lunar New Year”, (you can see the book here!) a children’s book about little Mulan spending Lunar New Year with her family.

It’s my first book and I want to share some illustrations  :D [*will also have this book at my table at CTNx 2018 this year on display at T55!]

Looking back, there are lots that I want to improve on the crafting of my drawings for this book, but overall… I’m really glad I get to illustrate and to remember the joy and excitement I had celebrating Lunar New Years and lighting fireworks with my parents as a kid.

It was pretty magical.

oh no… OH NO
