I've got a low-level IRL emergency going on right now that is both costing a lot of money and slowing down my work rate. I'm going to open a batch of 5 commissions to help cover bills. At the moment, my wait-list is out about 2 months, though I'm going to attempt a sprint to try and pare it down a bit. If you get something, please be aware that it might be a bit. HOWEVER: I have also been leaving a lot of people off my owed list over the last year or so. If you have currently been waiting for longer than a month and a half or so, please contact me. It's possible that You're overdue, and I'd like to catch it as soon as possible. Slot one: Slyryn Slot two: Lupindae Slot three: AddictingSugar Slot four: Slot five: Commissions are open, details below. Please send me a message with the details of what you're looking for to claim!  DO NOT PUT PERSONAL INFO SUCH AS EMAILS IN THE COMMENTS! DON'T DOX YOURSELF!!! Terms Of Service:

The Nashville Zoo is currently facing the possibility of having a 69,000ft datacenter build directly next door, and is attempting to fight or slow the process. They have launched a petition asking for further research and environmental impact studies to be done: https://c.org/WZPHCWkmHn In addition to the enormous effects on electricity, water, and air pollution, there's some decent evidence to suggest that datacenters produce large amounts of infrasound. Infrasound is noise that's too low for human hearing, but can still affect the body in negative ways. Datacenters are as loud as a jet engine, rattle and vibrate nearby objects, and affect things blocks and even miles away. That would absolutely FUCK Up a zoo, where most of the animals will be more sensitive to it than humans are. It would almost certainly cause them stress, and may worsen other health problems. This guy's been doing some research on it, I think. This is a great video on the topic:

This is some stuff I've been thinking about for a while, and I'd love some feedback on it. I'd love it if people could leave some comments with their thoughts. I know this is a long wall of text, but I'd appreciate the input. I’m changing the format of the story for Stormlark, as I've found the process of making a comic unpleasant and almost incompatible with what I want to do. The purpose of jumping in to do the prologue was to get started on SOMETHING and work out the kinks in the process. And I’ve discovered that there are a lot of parts of drawing comics that I really do not like, forget to do, or can’t be bothered with. For example, I really hate drawing dialog, speech bubbles, and sound effects. There's also a lot of panels that are there just to, like, move the character from room to room. Those aren't really things I want to spend time and effort drawing, and they mess with the composition. The dialog balloons, for instance, are ugly, don't match the style of the rest
