coworkers! you know how it is
Marcus Crassus and the Roman Republic, Allen Mason Ward
also this is like (squints) this has happened before. with Pompey, specifically. intriguing, but mostly extremely funny.
additionally: a variation on the same theme, because Pompey wasn't actually around a lot in 65 BCE iirc. rules of stage and narrative always take precedence in a comic, but I'm the kind of person who likes drawing several versions of the same idea, especially if I get to draw fabric folds
pompey: what the fuck is that supposed to mean

I’m more impressed Ryan had cell service in the Body Chute than I am with any other piece of evidence the Ghoul Boys gathered at Waverly

Love (cannot emphasis how much sarcasm there is in that word) that an official Canadian government response to high cellphone rates is to switch carriers.
Switch it to what? We basically have three companies since one was allowed to eat the forth (with the government saying it wasn't anti-competition and the company eating the other pinky promising they wouldn't jack rates up). Even the smaller companies have to rent infrastructure from the Big Three so there's only so much they can do if that rent costs an arm and a leg.
And that's not touching on how many "small companies" are actually just subsidiaries of the Big Three. You may save $5 but you're still with Telus/Rogers/Bell.
Or that the actual small companies tend to have shit coverage because they don't have the infrastructure available to them and are prevented from getting it. Or their traffic is throttled in favour of the Big Three's customers. Or both.
Or that they're extremely regional thus aren't an option for a huge chunk of Canada's population.
We have no true options and the government has shown time and again that they're fine with monopolies, in multiple industries, and don't care when said monopolies jack up prices to make shareholders and the c-suite more money at the expense of everyone else. At most there will be a verbal slap on the wrist and a giftcard for $25 that people have to register for, for a decade and a half of price gouging.
It's not talked a whole lot about outside the country from what I've seen and heard but Canada is a country of monopolies. A handful of companies own nearly everything, every province has a family or two that owns a hell of a lot (Nova Scotia is basically owned by one family at this point), and our government ignores it. Even the branch that is supposed to be against monopolies is fine with mergers and takeovers in most cases.
Because, you know, the company said it totally wouldn't use consumers' lack of options to increase prices.

Dear Transformers Fandom,
Anybody else getting spammed to hell and back with non related posts flooding the transformers tag? I'm getting everything from generative AI (ew), p0rn bots (double ew), to completely random mass posts of like nature photography but tagged with transformers and other fandoms.
I hate having to use the report/block system so often just to be able to get the giant robot fix for the day.
Sincerely,
A Very Tired Fellow Fan

An art style study I did on Studio Ghibli, featuring my OCs. Ghibli contrasts simple character design with its detailed worlds, so this piece was 90% background painting lol.
Given Miyazaki's philosophy of drawing inspiration from real life, I decided to depict a more everyday, town life scene.
Ghibli faces have taller proportions. The lower line of the eyes are often dotted, and the nose placed higher up on the face.
