Updates in bookbinding:
BOOKPRESS!!! yes it's kind of bad bc it's 2 $5 cutting boards from walmart and some screw c-clamps but im EXCITED to have smth better than. a large stack of books piled on top of each other.
currently being pressed is Scared to Live (But I'm Scared to Die) by @major816 bc its what i managed to get to the printing stage first! I'm gonna be sewing tomorrow since I'm only working a half-day so wish me luck with that :')
and for printing stage... well...
let's say I've had quite a time figuring that out
something something my printer was only like $40 and among the things it lacks, including the ability to actually do printing on both sides automatically (I could cry)(actually I did cry), i have also learned it likes to do scaling when printing in booklet :) which is why I've been having such a difficult time with the huge margins and tiny fonts and printing 2789 signatures trying to fix the issue as you can see above :)
with Scared to Live, I did the typeset for it which meant I had a lot of ability to edit the original document in order to fix the issues presented by my printer, which meant ultimately there were only ~6-7 test prints to fix it.
Even In Another Time by @irregularcollapse however. well. she did the typeset herself and shared it and i have spent so much time staring at it bc it's so pretty and i adore it. however that meant I only had the pdf version and pdf is infamous for being basically uneditable. which has been fun.
outside of staring listless at my computer, I also got help from my dad, and then help from a family friend who does printing semi-professionally (among other things), and we Still Didn't Kniw What To Do. eventually I caved and got the adobe free trial and FINALLY I fixed the issue. So yay! EIAT is next to be printed, possibly tomorrow or over the weekend :)
now i need to find a place to recycle paper. bc I have So Much.

hey fun thing. fun thing I'm experiencing lately. is that the case which every terf journo in the fucking UK is freaking themselves about FINALLY being able to put on the front page - trans woman convicted of rape sent to women's prison - is uhhhhhhhh. really close to home? emotionally? for me? and it's on every fucking newsstand????
(obviously transparent as fuck every time that everyone's suddenly so concerned about the wellbeing of women in prison when all the same publications are usually in the CRIMINAL SCUM PRISONS ARE TOO SOFT TRAIN but OKAY. OKAY. since you suddenly care so much about female prisoners shall we uhhhhh idk address the rate of sexual assaults by guards? police? other cisgender prisoners? maybe rethink the whole 'prison' thing as a whole? oh this is just about how you think trans women are scary again? cool. cool cool cool.)

The way you characterise Peppino and Bruno is literally one of my favourites in the fandom. It's a perfect blend, that doesn't flanderise either character, nor treats them too seriously to keep all the fun out. Epic stuff!
yessss thank u.....
those lil freaks truly mean the world to me i could go on for ages abt how fascinating their dynamic is but that's for another time and another post so i shall refrain For Now...
realtalk though it's been so gratifying seeing how many ppl like my pizza comics because this game and these characters really do just strike the perfect vibe w/ me for that, being LARGELY absurd cartoon shenanigans but still having such a compellingly consistent emotional grounding. fairly mundane scenes of really wild characters is just kind of What I Do--what i most enjoy doing and what i like to think i'm good at-- so it's cool to see i'm either right about that and/or that it has an audience, yknow....wuaaah

Fuck the FIFA. The DFB, Manuel Neuer, and the other teams/team captains are fucking cowards.
[Translation: Football world cup
Captains do without "One Love"-Armband
Manuel Neuer will not wear the captain's armband with the inscription "One Love" at the World Cup in Qatar after all.
Manuel Neuer as well as the team captains of other teams do not take part in the action for equality and freedom of opinion after all - Fifa had threatened sanctions again.]

Okay so I have no idea if anyone has pointed this out before or not, but I haven't seen anyone talk about it, so I guess I'll do it.
In Chapter 944, Kid says thay Killer wears a mask because he would beat up people who made fun of his laugh and decided to hide it by wearing a mask one day. Which is like, the weirdest reason I've ever heard.
How exactly does wearing a mask meant to hide his laugh?? It's not soundproof, we know that for sure, because 1. He talks normally and doesn't sound muffled at all, and 2. We can still hear his laugh. We see this in the raid during Act 3, multiple times. So, what's the point??
Is he functioning on the logic of "if no one can see me physically laugh, they can't make fun of me for it"? Which is like, I guess makes some sense, but still feels like a stretch.
Technically speaking, covering his face has close to nothing to do with stopping his laugh. Because it doesn't. It's to hide his face.
Killer wasn't made fun of because of his laugh. It was because of his face- or more accurately, his third eye. In this essay I will-
