Okay so bad news for everyone on YouTube right now

Starting the 13th, we will have an AI determine if we are children or not and if you are a child, than you are forced to send your ID, send a selfie or a credit card

This has the obvious cons of having your privacy being revoked from you and and in case there is a security breach, major identity thefts.

So what do we do in this scenario?

Well right now I have real idea as this is relativity new to me, but I do have two plans

Plan 1. Bug the shit out of them, send letters and send emails about how much of bad idea this is.

Include why the AI will mess up and target adults who watch cartoons, include privacy issues, censorship issues, anything you can think of that relates to this. I want you guys to bug the hell out of YouTube until they reverse this idea

Plan 2. Blackout.

Since the thing is coming out on the 13th.

The plan will be to completely avoid YouTube at all cost for that day, no watching, no sharing, no uploading, no nothing.

Download videos before things go down, watch Netflix. Whatever you do, don’t touch YouTube.

That’s all I can say right now, I also want you guys to let YouTubers know of this situation cause if it’s important for everyone on the website to talk about this immediately

Spread this stuff around, let people know of YouTube’s upcoming policy and how it’ll hurt everyone

My last 4 attacks on artfight. I technically reached/ exceeded my goal of at least one attack per week, but it still feels like so little.

I did have fun. Like always, artfight helped me to explore and experiment a little with my drawing skills and it definitely helped me to pinpoint what I would like to improve on (or reach the same level I once reached what seems like a lifetime ago.)

It also motivated me to get organized. I am soooo unorganized. Looking at my art room makes me want to burn down my apartment and start anew unorganized... but I have pets and a landlord, so I won't do that.

I could crank out so much better work/ fan works/ answer asks and otherwise much faster if I could stay fucking organized at home. So I'm going to work on that this month. Gotta make the most of what's left of summer.

Special thank you @silkoodles and @goonnextdoor for letting me attack you.

Hi, not sure if you're still doing asks about Invader Zim but I wanted to ask; can I use your name for the Space Bees (Hymenopteracians) for my stories?

Definitely! Go for it. I would love the Hymenopteracian species name to gain traction. It's hard to spell, at least for me, so I can understand why space bees will always stick.

I do plan to start answer Invader Zim asks agai. soon. Just trying to sort out life currently.

Depression is not doing things because you have no motivation. Anxiety is doing things because you're terrified of what might happen if you don't.

Now, imagine having both.

You are what people call fucked.

My artfight attacks so far.

Working on my next attack. Anyone want me to attack them please let me know. I'm going to try to finish at least 1-2 attacks until the end of the month.

Thank you @l-ii-zz and @indulgentish for following me there.

The thing about alcohol is that it cures my anxiety in the short run while making my anxiety worse in the long run.

This is also the thing about the Internet.

Tallest Spittle profile page.

22nd Almighty Tallest of the Irken Empire.

Spittle could best be described in human terms as a himbo. He is remembered for his outgoing personality, his chiseled physique, his dark, almost blue-ish shade of green skin, his love of armada War ships and cruiser drag racing.

Notable accomplishments; expanding the Irken armada, improving ships and introducing Spittle Runner battle ships to the fleet. Improving the working conditions of labor drones and medical care for both soldiers and service drones.

Shortly before his death, Spittle declared war against an unnamed, now extinct species that triggered one of the biggest disasters in modern Irken history;

The Spite Plague was a computer virus/ bio weapon that ravaged both the PAK and flesh vessel, leaving behind a husk slowly choking on their own spooch juices. The Spite Plague nearly wiped out 2/3rd of the Irken armada/ military and a 3/4th of the Irken civilian workforce. When it infested the smeetery only a couple of thousand smeets survived long enough to be vaccinated. Trillions of smeets, hatched and unborn were terminated to prevent further contamination.

Mr. Juan Casarez

*Never lets anyone cut his hair. Has been teased for it since the 60's. Streaks are turning silver. Was once brown.

Hazel- brown eyes.

*Cool leather jacket he bought at a thrift store 25 years ago. He thinks it makes his shoulders look broader

(14-15 year-old Juan Casarez holding his son)

Mr. C

Height 5 feet 7 inches (though he is rarely able to stand completely straight)

Weight: 104 lbs and dropping (which is astonishing considering how much he eats.)

Age 42 (people often mistake him for a senior citizen, but Juan is in fact only middle aged, just in poor health.)

Likes: Peace and quiet, food, birds/ bird watching, the cool vulture skull cane he bought at a pawn shop, the company of his pet parrot, My Wife, curvy women who like to cook, sitting at home and watching his shows on TV, when the tequila finally hits him and knocks him out and the bad memories go away for a little while, food, cooking food, eating food.

Dislikes: Cruelty, people who have/ show no kindness, patience or sympathy for others, loud noises, loneliness, bland food, the fact he struggles to read and write even as a full grown adult, his chronic back pain, Sundays (all the close liquor stores are closed), white trash neighbors, the sound of his own laughter, any reminders of his abusive deceased father.

Mr. Casarez is deathly afraid of sudden loud noises. His reactions to loud noises and/sudden movements towards him are involuntarily and can range from freezing to crying on the floor in the fetal position to swinging his cane until something breaks or gets knocked out.

Where it began...

First page

Most recent page

Nny met Mr. Casarez one night at Crazy Taco. Nny was threatening to slit the throat of the woman working the counter for mindlessly greeting him with the company slogan. 

Appalled by Nny's overreaction, Mr. Casarez pulled Nny back with his cane then proceeded to lecture him and force him out of the restaurant. 

Unsettled by Mr. Casarez's bravado and how closely the old man resembled him physically, Nny decided to stalk the old man. He eventually came to the delusion er-- conclusion that Juan Casarez is actually himself from the future sent to possibly warn him of something.

Thus is the plot of my Nny's Looper au. 

Not much is known about Mr. Casarez. He is a quiet recluse who rarely talks to anyone. His neighbors see him as odd and an alcoholic, but harmless. He likes to bird watch and try local restaurants. He lives in a trailer park 45 minutes away from Nny's house. His owns a pet blue macaw he named "My Wife"; named her that so when he tells people he needs to go home to his wife, he isn't lying...

Mr. Casarez claims to be a "retired" grave robber, a trade he learned from his father.

His father was a violent, thief and murderer as well as a successful grave robber. Prone to intense mood swings and outbursts, he would beat and verbally attack his wife and children daily usually without a clear cause or warning. As an elementary school aged child, Juan watched his father hack his mother to peices and was forced to help dispose of her body. Years later, he beat Juan with a shovel once during an argument when he was 14. He was not permitted to seek medical help and injuries healed incorrectly. Juan limped with a cane ever since.

He was married once briefly as a teenager. He claims to have a son named Johnny that was removed from his custody and lost in an abyss of social services after the mental breakdown, suicide of his late (human) wife. Mr. Casarez has not seen Johnny in well over 20 years; Johnny was 3.

Mr. Casarez's obviously is not Nny from the future. His true relation to Nny will not be discussed to avoid spoiling the Nny's Looper AU, which is nearly finished.

Feel free to connect the dots though. Wink wink.

The loss of his wife and child plus the long legal shit show that followed the events left Juan mentally and emotionally shattered for years. He spent much of his 20's and 30's in and out of mental hospitals and prisons.

Mr. Casarez suffers from an array of mental illnesses, but is suffering the most from depression and suicidal thoughts. Despite his violent upbringing and tragic past, Mr. Casarez is rarely aggressive in any way. He is far more likely to harm himself than another person/ living being.

A profile page for my JTHM oc that I meant to write but somehow never did. I plan to include him on my list of characters for artfight.

I'm on team fossil!!

I wasn't going to join artfight this year because my creative output has been shit to nothing in months, but I made the impulse decision to join this year anyway.

I've always enjoyed artfight. Maybe it will boost my desire to draw again. If any of you joined artfight and would like to, please follow/ attack me. I will try to retaliate everyone.

Trying to expand my oc list over the next few days.

I go by DRatRelyea there. Forgot to mention...

I have been thinking about opiliones a lot lately such an underrated arachnid.. They don't have venom or fangs so they don't do a lot of crazy hunting like spiders or scorpions they love plants and mushrooms and decaying matter.
