Hey, magnificent people of dA! How've you been? Because I feel like hell.
Seriously though, sorry I haven't posted anything in forever (AKA April 19th, which I did then BECAUSE I hadn't posted in forever) and haven't been as active. I've had a lot of crap to do (work...work...so much freaking work...), including a major project that took months to finish (for that SAME FREAKING WORK) and I can now "relax." Otherwise known as trying to regain my (imaginary) social skills and interact with people (AKA my friends and nobody else).
I'm coming back, people that actually care!

Just read, please.
A few days ago I made a journal entry in which I casually mentioned how I don't tend to talk about political things on this site, as it is somewhat of an escape for me. I wrote that journal mere hours before I heard about what happened in Charlottesville. As a minority and an ally, the past several days I've had this anger and sadness grow inside me as I debated talking about it here. I've talked about it on my other social media accounts (which I've purposefully never disclosed on dA), but surely, as an artist, as a WRITER, I should say something about it, right?
But...
What exactly would I--would YOU--accomplish from me writing a furious
Anime Fans UNITE!
I'm usually not one to spread the word about something (you won't believe how many political things I've wanted to address but decided not to), but this is a somewhat special case because it doesn't involve getting angry at someone.
So if you watch the anime side of YouTube, you might have heard of The Anime Man. He made a video explaining his reasons for doing this, but basically he wants to know what the international opinion is on the best anime series out there. And by international, he means INTERNATIONAL. He wants a ranking system to expand beyond his audience of 1.1 million subscribers.
So here's the deal: I already filled out my cho

A few words on Orlando...
Today, I learned about the mass shooting in Orlando, Florida. When I heard about the 49+ dead and 53 injured, my heart just...stopped. What exactly are you supposed to do when you hear about a tragedy like this for the umpteenth time? Just shake your head and say, "Not again?" Honestly, I tried drawing something, then writing something, but it was a big flop. I just kind of decided to not mention it.
But then I remembered all my LGBTQ friends. Despite living on the opposite side of the country, I can't help but think about the possibility of them getting hurt or worse due to their gender identity or sexual orientation. I've made it pretty cl
