I saw this meme going around recently (originating from a photo by Marina Choy) and thought it was a very Aava-coded pose. Featuring some experimental shading and composition that turned out pretty fun

the advice i needed was never “live every day as if it was your last”. it was “live every day as if you had to live for another 50 years” that would have been more useful.

Zatoichi's Revenge (1965)

Itinerant masseur and master swordsman, the blind Zatoichi, is near the village of his teacher, Hikonoichi, so he decides to visit. He learns of Hikonoichi's recent robbery and murder and the imprisonment of his virginal daughter, Osayo, in a brothel. Through friendship with Denroku, a local dice thrower and devoted father, Ichi uncovers an unholy alliance between the governor and the area strongman: among their scams is falsifying tax records to put farmers in debt, then forcing their daughters into prostitution at the boss's brothel. With help from Denroku's daughter, Otsuru, Ichi comforts Osayo until he can provoke showdowns with the villains and their henchmen.

No one at the con has commissioned an Angine de Poitrine drawing yet, but I guess it’s still early.

CREATIVES: the correct answer to 'please invoice me' is 'OK'. Stop trying to not get paid. I like paying people for their work, it brings me joy. Do not talk yourself out of fees because you enjoyed the work. Take the fee AND the fun, you deserve both.

Want to read that Jimmy Olsen book? It’s won just about every award it was up for, and it’s still one of the best comics I ever worked on. The new printing is available through any comic shop or book store. Or you can get a signed and sketched copy direct from the artist, here: https://helioscopepdx.etsy.com/listing/4311530238

Ubuntu appears to have been dealing with a sustained cyberattack causing widespread outages for several days now.

I say "appears" because Canonical has said little about it, other than some media talk last week. Right now, the Ubuntu blog has no posts on the subject.

As leaders in the open source community, I expect better from them. Canonical needs to do more to directly acknowledge what's happening.
