Well Gang, looks like we've got a mystery on our hands

So my partner buys a bluetooth speaker from Homestore + More the other day; a cheap one from a brand we've bought before - Sonarto.

It's fine, it does the job. They turn it off, and the shutting down noise makes my head spin 'round so fast I near get whiplash. It's the unearthing-a-clover sound effect from Okami, clear as day, no doubt about it. Here - here's me pressing the off button:

I know sound effects can be stock noises, but this one is so recognisable and unique to the game that I can't imagine it is.

I can't find any information on the company "Sonarto" aside from the speaker saying "made in china" on the bottom, and seemingly only being sold in Homestore + More who are an Irish company.

Does this mean Sonarto is a Homestore + More brand?

IS the Clover sound effect public domain? Is it something that relinquished trademark once Clover Studio went under or would it be something that would be wholly owned by Capcom?

I HAVE SO MANY UNANSWERED QUESTIONS, it's driving me mad.

Stumbled across this bunny years ago at a random Denver art exhibit. Does anyone know where it is now or who the artist is???

as a big proponent of Making Your Own Webbed Site For Your Webbed Comic myself, it bothers me how, every time naver webtoon gets caught mistreating specifically its contracted artists, that news gets used as a jumping off point to promote self hosting/reading self hosted comics... it feels like a self-interested distraction from the actual issue of "this company is screwing over people it has contracts with"

Thinking back on it, Danny probably should have been more wary of being given the title ‘Ender Of Timelines’.

hey. when cis society is oppressing a trans man, what he is experiencing is. In Fact. misogyny. i'm sorry i know none of us like to be reminded of our agab, and it hurts whenever people perceive you as the wrong gender. but a cis person hate-criming, assaulting, verbally abusing, etc, a trans man is not doing "transandrophobia" because they do not perceive him as a man.

they perceive him as a woman failing at her gender, as a woman who has been seduced and lied to and manipulated because women are so easily led astray, just like it says in the bible. they perceive him as a woman who has been mutilated. they perceive him as a dyke that needs to be fixed. if they are hate-criming him because they *do* perceive him as a man, because he passes well enough they aren't thinking he could be trans, then they're doing so out of homophobia, perceiving him as a gay man, a pervert, a sissy, a danger to children. OR, they are being transphobic but specifically because they think he might be transfeminine instead. when cis society oppresses a trans woman, they are able to do it on multiple levels at once. She's a woman failing at her gender, a dyke that needs to be fixed. Or she's an evil and grotesque crossdressing pervert, a rude caricature, a danger to polite society. she will never be doing enough to escape oppression entirely, no matter if she gets every surgery she can and wears makeup every day and passes perfectly, because she lives under a patriarchy, and she's a woman, so she lives in a panopticon, and HAVING to get surgery and wear make-up to be respected IS oppression, especially if the alternative is being hate-crimed.

trans women (and trans men who pass) are not experiencing "transandrophobia" when a 'queer women and nbs" event turns them away at the door for being too masculine. they are. IN FACT!! experiencing the byproducts of misogyny in a patriarchy!!! where the terfs and coward cis women running those events and occupying those spaces have been taught (sometimes through experience, sometimes by men, sometimes by women) throughout life that men = stronger and more dangerous than women ALWAYS. That they need to protect themselves at all times and always be vigilant. That men and women can't be friends without sexual tension (and so as queer women the mere existence of what they perceive as a "man" is a threat). That women need a separate sports league because they can't possibly compete with someone who has even a little bit "extra" (an unquantifiable amount actually because there isn't a standard range) testosterone. That women should cook and men should fix cars. i promise you, i promise i promise i promise. it's misogyny. like!!! you don't say cis gay men experiences "androphobia", bc that's not a thing!! you sound like fucking mens rights activists guys please! you don't say a black man experiences "misandrynoir"!! because living in a patriarchy fundamentally means men do not experience oppression based on their gender. its not happening. shut the fuck up. stop walking us back to 2014 can we please take a step forward and stop bitching about this. there are genuine issues in the world and i'm frankly sick of people who should be smarter than that needing to be gently hand-held through this fucking explanation for the millionth time and still stomping their feet.

I’ve been drawing Eddie and Chrissy lately :)! The first one is a sketch for an idea I have where its a hellcheer version of Francis Tipton Hunter’s “Helping with Homework,” and the last one is a bit of a continuation of Eddie and Chrissy exchanging mixtapes--Chrissy is listening to ZZ Top’s “Pearl Necklace.” Also, I’m not sure if anyone else remembers Schoolhouse Rock! (it was already old when I was a kid), but it was an American educational program from the 70s and I thought it might be cute for them to bond over it - “3 is a magic number” is a personal favorite (x)!

Hey uh... Can anyone help?

I do art commissions (slots open on my kofi) if anyone wants sth. I just really need the help rn tbqh. I have just enough to cover priority items for Lil Bean (for two weeks maybe) but am fucked for everything else because I live in a house with my mother and she's... Rubbish with money. I buy all the food, cover household bills, etc etc. Right now, I'm not getting paid everything I should be (which sucks and I'm being ghosted by the one I'm meant to contact about this which is just gReAt) and it's really, really messing everything up.

It was meant to be sorted. It was meant to be organised. I was meant to be able to do this and not have to panic about finances. Instead... Instead I'm missing support, have to cover bills for a whole household and a baby on less than I should have while handling a dysfunctional parent I can't leave either, and deal with the lack of government support just yet because, ya know, their system moves slow when giving money but hella fast when demanding it.

So yeah.

Commissions. Or donations if you're safely able to do that and don't want art. Just- just help please. Help right now would be great. It really, really would.

[ID: a three color drawing (black, white, and teal) in the style of Seth’s illustrations from the Lemony Snicket series All The Wrong Questions. Five and Viktor (both about 13) are seated at the counter of a diner, talking. Luther (in his 20s), who is a patron seated next to them, looks concerned about what he is overhearing. Grace stands behind the counted holding a coffee pot and gazing into space. A missing poster for Ben is taped to the counter. In the mirror behind the counter, a reflection Diego and Patch (both 15) are visible in a booth. End ID]

i really should leave time between art posts for them to breathe and accumulate their fair share of notes, but also i need something to do while im waiting for my onions to caramelize.

In this installment: Five and Viktor meet over breakfast to discuss business, Luther is a Concerned Citizen, Diego and Patch also meet over breakfast to discuss business but in the background, and Grace is NOT a robot and this diner is NOT fully automated no sir. Also as usual Ben's face provides some ambiance, thank you Ben.
