The vulture capitalist hedge fund that bought and subsequently destroyed Toys R Us now owns Overdrive/Libby.
They have already begun making it worse/less usable and they have a chokepoint monopoly on the delivery method of ebooks borrowed from public libraries in the US.
A fun thing about capitalism is that rich people can buy something a lot of people love and depend on, and then destroy it for fun and profit, and there’s not really anything we can do about it.

Would love to go back to NYC and walk through Central Park at 1AM again soon 😴
I posted this photo in the last group of NYC photos from this week but I did some editing in Lightroom and felt inclined to post this version

I am saying this as an independently published author who would not be able to make rent without people supporting my writing: Universal information piracy is an unqualified good for humanity.
前によりもっと近くだね Closer than before 🌱
I’m just about to get out of bed today; just trying to stay on top of my health but nonetheless, there is more to draw and more to prepare for before AnimeNYC. I will really look into hiring a couple artist friends as assistants for my comics after NYC. Even for screen tones and Black fills. I’m not sure how payment will work considering I don’t make a living yet, so maybe we can plan a Kickstarter release. I don’t know… all I know is: I realize my limitations and have to do my best despite, and I have friends who can help but I need to make it worth their while. Drawing has been really… exhausting lately. It takes a lot from me, and it’s not just drawing in itself; but circumstance. Unfortunately, life currently consists of MUCH more than “just drawing.” I wish it was so.

...I feel like we could all have a more mature conversation about the nature of art if we realized that a lot of people view the answer to the question of "Is this art?" is based on "Do I perceive this as interfering with the production of art I make/want to see exist?"
Like, legit, that's the barrier for most people from what I can tell, and a lot of paradoxical behavior starts to make sense when you look at it like that.

Sorry for reposting, I noticed Clip Studio didn’t render the screentone layering properly when exported to a PNG :| So now it’s exported properly for how I intended the shading
