Something About How Kendal Named Himself Only After Alinua Agreed To Go With Him On The Several-day-long

Different Warhammer doodles, art and sketches 😗✏️

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again but it is absolutely an example of civilizational inadequacy that only deaf people know ASL

“oh we shouldn’t teach children this language, it will only come in handy if they [checks notes] ever have to talk in a situation where it’s noisy or they need to be quiet”

imagine if the oceans were replaced by forests and if you went into the forest the trees would get taller the deeper you went and there’d be thousands of undiscovered species and you could effectively walk across the ocean but the deeper you went, the darker it would be and the animals would get progressively scarier and more dangerous and instead of whales there’d be giant deer and just wow

Am I blind or is that a reverse turn card not a skip turn card

I love the analysis tho!

I'm gonna do some Uno reversing theorizing here y'all. I think Pyotr was gonna win this match. I also think he's won 98% of these Uno matches. @meo-htp made an in-depth post detailing the vamp's hideout.

One of the details was how their table has huge dents in it and a big bite out of it. Shitbeard has gnarly marks on his arm, so I think he's the one who made the dents in the table.

And I think Kevin was the one who took a chunk out of the table. He's the only one who has the most pronounced canines out of the four of them.

I originally thought it would be Ape Boy, but his teeth aren't..big enough for a bite like that. He couldve caused it due to his excessive hunger, but the others mentioned him "over feeding" so he shouldn't even be hungry enough to bite the table.

I believe Shitbeard and Kevin got into an intense Uno match and now it was Ape Boy and Pyotr's turn.

Ape is clearly looking at Pyotr waiting for him to make his turn, thinking he's 100% gonna win. He's only got one card left in his hand while Pyotr has three.

Unfortunately for Ape Boy, this is a 2 way game. Meaning all Pyotr has to do is use his skip turn card, use the change colour card to red, then put down his red card. Winning him the Uno game.

It just makes me think about how much stuff Pyotr could plan out and his ability to think ahead when he's calm.

Hour 6 of consecutive physics lectures:

there are so few of us now, night has fallen and all the world is numbers…

they have taken the coffee and the second floor…

footsteps sound in the corridor, they are coming…

we have completed the differentiation but cannot rest for long…

a professor moves in the dark…

we cannot get out… we cannot get out…

drew these different hairstyles for Fulgrim because I was bored...

my wife and I saw you from across the roundtable and we liked your sniveling pathetic vibe and wanted to invite you to our castle to wage a slow psychosexual war on you

My new favourite archery image!

This painting is located in the Church of the Nativity in Prague, and is dated to 1663. It is also the basis of at least 3 D&D character concepts that are stuck in my head now.

Hey, sorry if you’ve been asked this before, but I have ADHD and I’ve been following your comic for years and just now have started to write my own comic (partially because you really inspired me). But I’m really struggling with staying on the project even when it’s boring and getting myself to work on it in the first place. Do you have any tips on how to keep your brain invested or just to make yourself do the work at all?

I have excellent news, I literally just figured out something really important about this.

So when you're an ADHD kiddo or otherwise have difficulty staying on task in a structured environment where Task is the Priority, the main way people try to MAKE you stay on task is by removing your access to anything that is not The Task. No phone, no TV, no doodling, no going outside, etc. In practice, this just makes us miserable because it takes the boredom that's always simmering around a 2 or 3 and cranks it all the way up to 11. In the same way that you would have difficulty staying on task if you were in physical pain, this crushing existential monotony makes it very difficult to work. The work might get done simply because you have no other options, but it will not be done quickly or well, and it will take a while to recover from how much it hurt.

What I realized earlier this week is I caught myself doing this to myself. I had 42 pages of background colors to do, and I thought to myself "this sounds really tedious, but I suppose I have nothing better I can do." And I realized what I'd just thought, and got very alarmed.

Because back when I was an ADHD kiddo imprisoned by school scheduling and a million little factors that keep children immobile and restrained, I couldn't stop thinking about how big and exciting the world was, and how much I wanted to be anywhere but here. When I was feeling really crushed in I'd pick a random spot on the maps on my wall and just imagine being there instead of my bedroom. This was the impetus behind almost all of my creative energy. I've said it before - anything is a prison if you can't leave, and being in a prison makes it easy to imagine how amazing things could be outside of it. Aurora's initial worldbuilding was forged in the crucible of fifth grade misery. My enthusiasm for art and my creative drive are inextricable from my sense of wonder and yearning for excitement in the real world. Not escapism, but appreciation. Wonders unimaginable are out there, and I gain just as much joy seeking them out as I do conjuring them up in my head and sharing them with all of you.

So now that I'm a grown-up with actual freedom in every way I've been able to get, the idea that I was staying on task by making myself believe the world was small and not worth seeing was extremely alarming. It could keep me on task for an afternoon, but at the cost of slowly extinguishing the thing that made me want to make art in the first place - the hunger to experience and draw inspiration from all the myriad complexities in the world.

So what I've been doing is I've been purposefully and intentionally taking excursions whenever I catch myself thinking "I could take a break but it wouldn't be worth it, it's the same outdoors as always, I'll be uncomfy and unproductive and tired." Because that is never true. Every time I've put down the stylus and gone out, I've been renewed in one way or another, and when I come back to comfort fully recharged I get a lot of shit done. Because it is easier to work on anything if you remember why you wanted to make it in the first place, and it is self-defeating misery to just lock yourself in with it and tell yourself you're a bad person if you can't get it done.

I honestly don't know how widely applicable this is. I have worse wanderlust than anyone I know, so for me this has always been modeled as imprisonment vs freedom. I've also been extremely lucky to find myself in a profession that lets me set my own pace on literally everything I do. But I genuinely believe that when it comes to making art with ADHD, you need to give yourself freedom to move laterally, not just in the direction of obvious forward progress. We don't think linearly in any other part of our lives - art is no different.
