here we are here we go

Workflow:

Damn.. i took my time on the last one! But it's nice to just, take your time sometimes. I always rush, and we cool to just sit and work on details on a face for 2 h.That said, next are February rewards: Elite first then HQ. I think i can finish all the Elites and start the HQ this week. We ll see how i manage!My goal is to finish them all for the 6 August, 8th max. I should be able to do it, if i manage i would directly start one comics comm i gotThe 13th i go to hollyday and ll be back only around the 20th/21th maybe 22, we didn't decide yet how we end the trip with my friends.

Censor time

I won't go deep in politic, but damn.. is it me or our democracy government start to lean slowly and slowly to a more... directive type of politics?English government officials kinda agreed that the goal was less to "save little girls from internet" and maybe much to control and monitor what the adult do. In France last year some deputy wanted to forbid VPN to be used, but it was repelled cause anticonstitutional, still they tried to block some internet usage.Internet isn't like it used to, was a bit the wild west, changed and became the land of big corpo mostly.. i think i like the nsfw world cause it retain, in a form, this "outlaw" spirit. A bit wilder, no big corpo to hold it.. part of me believe it's why stuff like Visa want to close it. If they can't have their hand on it no one will.But.. honnestly, i believe it's more the SwanSong. Humanity tend to do 2 step forward, one backward. We're on the backward steps time right now. The old guard yelling louder to be heard, before they kick the bucketBut i believe, we ll find a way to walk in the good direction again in the future.All i'm afraid of is that those that hold the power, billionaires and religious zealots, would need more than word to be pushed down from their thrones.In the early 20° century, there was big company holder pushing FAR on the right. But the luck is that we had a lot of "new rich" that were pushing on the left too to compensate. Still big bosses with their own agenda, but still, guy who used to remember from where they came from.Now.. our richs are almost all heirs of their big fortune. Or at least had a daddy to lend them 1million to start their first company. So no one to fight on our side. Still i firmly believe that this system is on it last breath. It's funny, someone told me this week "sad how peoples can imagine more easy the apocalypse, more than the end of capitalism".Economy used to be before capitalism, peoples used to exchange, it ll continue after. I just wonder what ll come after. But the more time pass, the more i believe i might still be around when it happen.Just hope it won't ask a big boom for it to happen at last.

Meeting new peoples:

I noticed how hard it is for me to meet new peoples now. Not even the laack of opportunity, more a sort of.. shyness?I hesitate to go and spend time meeting peoples i might not like, or just..Being an artist is a lonely job. YOu are alone in your room, you draw, it's also why i liked having roomates.. at LEAST there's some human interaction on the day.Last roomate wasn't there for 2 month in a row at one point. Was alone here, my friends where taken by their job so.. i saw like.. one or two of them on the period. And out of the cashier at my shop, and the restaurant owner i used to go take my noodles, spoke to no one live at this time..Won't lie, wasn't that hard.. but it was harder after this episode to.. re socialize. It's why i'm pushing myself to go see more peoples these days. Just to wash this habbit to stay alone on my own for too long. Gotta go party more often then =D
