Tolkien Fandom Event Calendar

Recently I’ve received some asks about events/weeks in the Tolkien fandom, so I thought I’d compile a list of those that I know about. This is not exhaustive, and dates are subject to change by the organizers of these events!

Other blogs you can check out are @tolkieneventsblog and @tolkienfandomevents, though I’m not sure how active those are. The @silmarillionwritersguild Discord also has a channel dedicated to signal boosts for all sorts of Tolkien-related & general fandom happenings, which is another excellent way to keep up with fandom goings-on.

Want to run your own event? Here’s some of my tips!

It has been a while since I started digital art,

Quite a while.

So here is a 'progress over the last two years' since I gained access to a drawing tablet.

This is my first ever digitally illustrated piece- compared to my latest one-

So, a little bit different.

I do think my art took quite a jump around June 2022, when I took a break from my Steve comic strip, (for obvious reasons- it was about Technoblade's polar bear so...) and decided to try practicing gesture drawing to see if it helped my general anatomy knowledge. This is before,

And this next one is after.

The most obvious change here is that I switched to using thinner lines. There is a gap of about two months between these.

This was when I realised that you could improve art by practicing it (mind-blowing I know), and then started to do just that. Some other notable jumps forward would be when I discovered the airbrush-

Well, discovered a new method of shading with it anyway.

Then after that I had a few pictures that I actually still like, despite them being pretty old at this point, the one below is actually from September of 2022-

I mean, the hands are a bit iffy, but the rest looks alright. This was when I was going through a bit of a melanie martinez phase-

This next one was from January of 2023, I'd only just gotten into bungou stray dogs via some random memes on pinterest about this weird brown haired guy who had lots of bandages and who had this running gag with wanting to die- I actually looked him up at one point, but that didn't really explain much. The main one that I remember was 'life is short, so make it shorter, shorter than chuuya~'

Which at the time was just kind of confusing,

Then I watched the show and it made perfect sense.

I'd discovered ascendance of a bookworm in like, 2021, but I hadn't really been doing fanart of it since I was mainly doing dsmp related stuff and I kind of assumed nobody would know what on earth I was referencing. Turns out tumblr has a lot more bookworm fans than I orignally anticipated. Instagram still has no clue. I think maybe one person out of my followers on instagram knows what I'm on about-

Then we've got these two which I am still proud of btw-

The first one is from a dystopian/time travel fanfic called viridian.

The second one was after I learned about rim lighting. It was inspired by a song actually, 'crash' by noevaii. (and yes I found that song from a sad-ist animatic, it was cool) The character isn't anyone in particular. They're both from February 2023.

Then there's probably my most liked picture on instagram, (not tumblr, since tumblr knows about bsd and bookworm, but y'know. This was even sadder than I originally intended since the last half of my comic strip was finished AFTER everything happened)

Then the final conclusion of my Steve comic strip in May of 2023.

I don't think my art really changed much in between those, but eh.

Then I switched to doing a bunch of ascendance of a bookworm stuff to see what would happen and turns out there are way more fellow fans out there than I anticipated-

Then I guess my next breakthrough in tumblr popularity, (even if it might not have been a breakthrough in art skills necessarily) was when things went DOWN in the bsd fandom with chapter 109 and I did probably one of my most liked tumblr posts I have ever done-

If you want to see the rest of that, feel free to scroll down on my tumblr page, the original's like eight pages long-

This was before anyone knew what was going to happen btw.

I still think it's hilarious that I put in chuuya having contacts. My reasoning being, they're on a film set,

It was a pretty interesting exercise in shading in monochrome.

Then I started a 30 day art challenge in October that I didn't get past day six of, but it was still pretty fun. This is the best one of those-

After that I spent most of my time studying for the jlpt n5, so I didn't really do that much art related stuff,

This is one of the two non-commission related pictures that I finished over the two months after I kind of gave up on the art challenge. This one's from November,

Then I finally finished an art commission I'd been working on for the three months prior, as well as studying. Here is an example of the type of pictures I was doing for that,

Then I was occupied with christmas and birthday presents for my siblings, both my little sisters are into ascendance of a bookworm- (completely my fault I am proud to say) so I was able to do stuff related to that, here's a couple of snippets, but you guys don't get the colour version hehe

And one of them has also read the entire fma manga just like I have so-

Anyway, it's been quite a progression since I resolved to master digital art in 2021.

I reckon I've come a fair way since then. I mean. My art skills in general are way better than they used to be. The last two or three years have been pretty interesting.

Also-

Just had to include this one, I'm gonna do a more detailed version but still-

I think it's funny so I'm posting it here. Even if it's not really related to art progression-

Yukon Heritage Day

Yukon Heritage Day brings the history and culture of the smallest of Canada’s three territories to the forefront of public attention, on the Friday before the last Sunday in February. Schools and Yukon government offices close, while business owners have the option of giving employees time off.

The day is designed to coincide with The Yukon Sourdough Rendezvous, a festival in Yukon’s capital, Whitehorse. The event specifically revolves around the Yukon Gold Rush period of the 1890’s, featuring a “Queen” contest, sled dog races, air shows, and snow sculpture contests. Sounds like a chilly but fun time!

History of Yukon Heritage Day

Back in 1975, the Canadian government enacted one of their Collective Agreements — complicated government edicts around union behaviors and other labor rules — which included making Yukon Heritage Day a territorial holiday during which public institutions would close. So of course, in February 1976, the holiday saw its first celebration. Other than time off work and school, the biggest deal about Yukon Heritage Day is that it most often coincides with the Yukon Sourdough Rendezvous.

The Sourdough Rendezvous is held in the capital, Whitehorse. Since the holiday falls in February and Yukon is just east of Alaska, it’s quite cold! But Yukon residents tough it out for the chance to be a part of the giant festival. In 2020, the Rendezvous saw its 55th convening. It’s sponsored by many major Canadian businesses, and grows in scope and attendance every year.

Even Yukoners that can’t make it to Whitehorse still get to enjoy a day off to think about their culture and history, one highlight of which is the Klondike Gold Rush of the late 19th century that saw approximately 100,000 gold prospectors descend on that region of Yukon. We don’t know if there’s still “gold in them thar hills,” but we can tell you that this is really a precious day.

Yukon Heritage Day timeline

1976

Inaugural

Yukon Heritage Day sees its first observance across the territory.

1965

Something for everyone

For the first time, the Yukon Sourdough Rendezvous takes place in Whitehorse.

1950

Setting the stage

The city of Whitehorse is incorporated, paving the way for decades of festivities to come.

1896-1899

A flash in the pan?

Prospectors swarm to find gold in the Klondike hills, changing the face of Yukon by sheer force of numbers.

Yukon Heritage Day FAQs

Is it light day and night in Yukon, like in Alaska?

Perhaps not to that extreme. For example, on the summer solstice in Yukon, there are over nineteen hours where the sun is above the horizon — a long day! — and on the winter solstice only about five and a half.

How cold does it get in Whitehorse?

The hottest temperature recorded in Whitehorse was 96.1 degrees Fahrenheit on June 14, 1969. The record cold was 69 degrees below zero Fahrenheit on January 21, 1906.

Will the 2021 Rendezvous be affected by Covid-19?

We contacted the director of the event, and though the particulars won’t be exactly known until October 2020, at the time of this writing we are assured that the festival will be “Covid-friendly.”

5 Amazing Facts About The Klondike Gold Rush

Pulling their weight: In part because the Canadian government required every incoming prospector to bring a year’s worth of food to prevent starvation, the typical prospector’s equipment weighed close to a ton, which they had to move in phases.

Not a second to turn around: Some of the “boom towns” that saw thousands of gold-seekers come through had their populations increase by as much as 6,000 percent.

“Who are these tourists?” The native Hän people of the region, who either didn’t know or didn’t care about the gold ore in their nomadic lands, were treated badly and most were forced onto reservations.

“Eureka!” The earliest reported discovery of gold was on the banks of Rabbit Creek, a tributary of the Klondike River, by American prospector George Carmack and his brother-in-law Skookum Jim.

“Wait for me!” The gold rush created a “mass resignation” phenomenon. For example, the mayor of Seattle, a dozen of its police officers, and a significant number of streetcar drivers all picked up and headed north toward the gold.

Why We Love Yukon Heritage Day

It’s a source of territorial pride: Every Canadian province and territory is unique like American states are. On Yukon Heritage Day, residents and friends worldwide can feel a sense of pride in the things that set Yukon apart and make it a great place to live.

The Sourdough Rendezvous is a blast: In all our research, we didn’t come across one instance of a person or group attending the Yukon Sourdough Rendezvous having a bad time. There’s so much going on throughout the city of Whitehorse that week, it’s a literal case of “something for everyone.”

History is a fruitful topic of study: As the popular saying goes, “You don’t know where you’re going if you don’t know where you’ve been.” It’s a facile way of saying that a deeper knowledge of a region’s history — the events, the people — can be beneficial in many ways, not to mention impressive!

I only started following you because of my salad fingers phase and you had a crossover comic featuring him, but now the lore of dhmis is enticing and I have no clue where to start. Can you- can you pwease explain it to me?

-dysrix anon

ok got it!!! no problem!!!!!

(before i start rambling excessively i just gotta say that's different to hear lol, i think the majority are around for the puppets and just tolerate mr sally's presence)

OK SO. dhmis is a webseries that started in 2011 as a short film made by a couple of college kids who wanted to say something about not imposing rules on how creativity should be expressed, because art school is kinda just Like That. that video was put on youtube and went really super viral and all the Reaction Video People were a "so scawy 😥" whiny baby about it. the creators wanted to make a series but left the idea alone because it was a lot of work and also expensive (puppetry). then in 2014 they were commisioned to make 2, they did, and then tony the talking clock (emphasis on those last three words) became a tumblr sexyman and a bunch of everyone started shipping him with sketchbook (who they called paige) and humanizing them and it was just this whole thing. anyway thanks to them the creators made a kickstarter to fund the rest of the series and it actually worked out, too. so i'd like to thank the clockfuckers we would not be here without you. i hope you fucked your clock. anyway then over the next two years the last four episodes came out and they were epic and gamer and increasingly Kinda Horrifying (three still messes me up a bit but none of the others ever scared me, it's just more weird than anything. in a very good way) and the last one, six, came out june 19th 2016 (which was father's day, and it hasn't been father's day june 19th since yesterday, and it won't be again until 2033), and it was awesome. then september 13th 2018 wakey wakey (thirteen second long trailer) happened and everyone lost their shit and then sundance film festival in january 2019 where they pitched that pilot they made around (and seeing as the pilot as we know it is almost certainly a lost media now, those very low-quality cam leaks on youtube are possibly all that remains). then in july 2020 they started making the show and well you know Plague Was A Thing That Happened so it was pretty quiet for a while and then august 30th 2021 they announced they finished filming and then february 25th there was a clip continuing the pirate joke and saying they were finishing lines and then late may wakey wakey disappeared aND THEN YESTERDAY FLY HAPPENED AND

and the reason i'm finishing that particular tangent very quickly is that i am now realising you were likely asking about the lore of the story itself. and not its process of existence

well

SO NO ONE KNOWS WHAT IT'S ABOUT.

there sure are a lot of ideas out there!! and i have definitely got my own ideas which i don't really talk about ever because they're honestly a bit too rude to the media theory (which i hate - a lot - but also which a lot a lot a lot of other people really like. so it'd be mean)

ANYWAY THE BASIC SUMMARY OF THE WEBSERIES is there are three puppets and they're yellow guy and red guy and duck and they all live in a house together and every episode some object in their house comes alive and sings to them a lesson about an abstract, basic concept like yknow creativity and time. so it's sort of meant to resemble something like sesame street at first. but these sentient objects (who are usually called "teachers") are kinda Really Fucked Up and the lessons go wrong really fast and usually end in uhhhh murder. also their life is a lie and it's like puppet matrix and roy, yellow guy's dad, really does seem to be the guy pulling the strings behind it all. man it's like thirty minutes total on youtube i don't want to spoil it TOO much in case you ever decide to check it out lol. oh wait. oh wait you asked where to start

well you start there!!!!!!

ALSO there's a bunch of lost videos and that one puppet interview and a collection of little things around miss becky's instagram or mr joe's twitter that all just weaves together with the main thing to make A Web of Story and it's awesome. i'd be glad to tell you all about that too if you ask!!!! i'm very normal about all this that's why i have lists and notes and a handful of rambly word document essays about this everywhere

ok i'm done thanks for coming to autism hour with creech

#uhhhhhhhh #long post

(This post is literally not interesting at all to anyone else but me---I'm just recounting my Consumed Content journey, feel free to move along. If you are however, interested to see what I've been watching for the past 3 years of my life [during which I have graduated high school and started my sophomore year of college], go ahead and take a peek under the cut)

So I like to categorize my life by phases of interest, and it's crazy that the past ~3 years has been:

End 2020 - Feb/March 2021: Kpop (mainly NCT and a little Seventeen)

Feb/March 2021 - December 2022: DSMP and that side of Twitch/YT in general

January 2022 - February 2022: Dead Poets Society (my all time fave shut up)/ House / just watching all of Robert Sean Leonard's movies

March 2022 - June 2022: This one is weird because I watched a LOT of media for a lot of different reasons (most of Chris Evans', Sebastian Stan, and Andrew Garfield's filmography; Euphoria; La La Land; Fleabag; Stranger Things 4; Jurassic World Dominion)

July 2022 - January 2023: Lost (which is the best show made on TV and I will die on that hill

↳ July/August 2022 - October 2022: Watched up to season 10 of Criminal Minds (for the second time, and I still haven't finished the show)

↳ October 2022 - November 2022: Watched a lot of Jerma

↳ November 2022 - Present: D&D; specifically playing it.

↳ December 2022 - April 2023: Dimension 20 (Intrepid Heroes seasons specifically. I knocked those bitches OUT)

April 2023 - June 2023: Another weird media phase (All of Ben Feldman and Chris Wood's filmography [Superstore and Vamprire Diaries]; SKAM; Newsies; The Crown; Chambers; Firefly; Love, Simon and Love, Victor)

June 2023 - September 2023: BookTube

September 2023 - Beginning of October 2023: Game of Thrones (which subsequently turned into watching all of Richard Madden and Kit Harington's filmography)

Present: The Yard (literally started it yesterday because Zac was on the last episode, and Zac is my fave from Dropout, and then I latched onto Aiden. So.)

Honorable mentions: I watched DougDoug a lot a few months ago; Heartstopper and RWRB; I'm playing a lot of Starfield and Book of Hours right now; currently working on Cain's Jawbone; and I bought a Switch in Feb so I've dumped a lot of hours into that;

So it's really interesting to see that around a year and a half later I've circled back to whatever side of YouTube Ludwig is on, but just for The Yard. Who knows if I'm even going to finish it because 1. I'm not a podcast guy and 2. I'm really only watching it because I'm in a TV lull, watching Game of Thrones and some other stuff kicked my ass so I'm taking a break from TV. College does SUCK right now though and that's a perfect time to listen to podcasts, so I think I'm gonna get far.

Anyway yeah that was a lot of nothing for everyone except me but I'm gonna post it anyway. I like cataloguing every second of my life so this will be helpful for future me and for anyone else who wants to see how Mental this is. If you are a fan of any of the things mentioned I'm always down to talk about media/games so feel free to chat

#im not gonna clog a bunch of fandoms w this post since its literally about nothing #this is my watch history pretty much. i mentioned the big stuff but there were some things i couldnt throw in #like things that took me a week or less to watch i didnt mention #or werent impactful enough to me to mention #and obvi i have a social life but who cares about that #and SCHOOL?? pffft yeah right buddy. nerd. dummy.#anyway this is literally just for me what are you still doing here. go away.

La main (2023)

Titre original: Talk to Me Date de sortie: 2023-07-24|(95 min) Genres: Horreur,Thriller Qualités: 720p – 1080p

Synopsis:Lorsqu'un groupe d'amis découvre comment conjurer les esprits à l'aide d'une mystérieuse main hantée, ils deviennent accros à ce nouveau frisson, et l’expérience fait le tour des réseaux sociaux. Une seule règle à respecter : ils ne doivent pas tenir la main plus de 90 secondes. Lorsque l’un d’entre eux l’enfreint, ils vont être rattrapés par les esprits, les obligeant à choisir : à qui se fier, aux morts ou aux vivants ?

La main is a 2023 American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character Black Panther. Produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, it is the sequel to Black Panther (2018) and the 30th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Directed by Ryan Coogler, who co-wrote the screenplay with Joe Robert Cole, the film stars Letitia Wright, Lupita Nyong'o, Danai Gurira, Winston Duke, Florence Kasumba, Dominique Thorne, Michaela Coel, Tenoch Huerta, Martin Freeman, and Angela Bassett. In the film, the leaders of Wakanda fight to protect their nation in the wake of King T'Challa's death.

Ideas for a sequel began after the release of Black Panther in February 2018. Coogler negotiated to return as director in the following months, and Marvel Studios officially confirmed the sequel's development in mid-2019. Plans for the film changed in August 2020 when Black Panther star Chadwick Boseman died from colon cancer, with Marvel choosing not to recast his role of T'Challa. Other main cast members from the first film were confirmed to return by that November, and the title was announced in May 2021. Production initially took place from late June to early November 2021, in Atlanta and Brunswick, Georgia, as well as around Massachusetts, before a hiatus to allow Wright to recover from an injury sustained during filming. Production resumed by mid-January 2023 and wrapped in late March in Puerto Rico.

La main premiered at the El Capitan Theatre and the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood on October 26, 2023, and was released in the United States on November 11, 2023, as the final film in Phase Four of the MCU. The film received positive reviews from critics, who praised the cast's performances (particularly Wright's, Huerta's, and Bassett's), emotional weight, Coogler's direction, action sequences, musical score, and tribute to Boseman.

Sir William Lawrence Bragg

was an Australian-born British physicist and X-ray crystallographer, discoverer (1912) of Bragg's law of X-ray diffraction, which is basic for the determination of crystal structure. He was joint recipient (with his father, William Henry Bragg) of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1915, "For their services in the analysis of crystal structure by means of X-rays" an important step in the development of X-ray crystallography.

Bragg was knighted in 1941. As of 2021, he is the youngest ever Nobel laureate in physics, having received the award at the age of 25 years. Bragg was the director of the Cavendish Laboratory, Cambridge, when the discovery of the structure of DNA was reported by James D. Watson and Francis Crick in February 1953.

The composition of X-rays was unknown, his father argued that X-rays are streams of particles, others argued that they are waves. Max von Laue directed an X-ray beam at a crystal in front of a photographic plate; alongside of the spot where the beam struck there were additional spots from deflected rays – hence X-rays are waves. In 1912, as a first-year research student at Cambridge, W. L. Bragg, while strolling by the river, had the insight that crystals made from parallel sheets of atoms would not diffract X-ray beams that struck their surface at most angles because X-rays deflected by collisions with atoms would be out of phase, cancelling one another out. However, when the X-ray beam stuck at an angle at which the distances it passed between atomic sheets in the crystal equalled the X-ray's wavelength then those deflected would be in phase and produce a spot on a nearby film. From this insight he wrote the simple Bragg equation that relates the wavelength of the X-ray and the distance between atomic sheets in a simple crystal to the angles at which an impinging X-ray beam would be reflected.

His father built an apparatus in which a crystal could be rotated to precise angles while measuring the energy of reflections. This enabled father and son to measure the distances between the atomic sheets in a number of simple crystals. They calculated the spacing of the atoms from the weight of the crystal and the Avogadro constant, which enabled them to measure the wavelengths of the X-rays produced by different metallic targets in the X-ray tubes. W. H. Bragg reported their results at meetings and in a paper, giving credit to "his son" (unnamed) for the equation, but not as a co-author, which gave his son "some heartaches", which he never overcame.

Bragg was commissioned early in World War I in the Royal Horse Artillery as a second lieutenantof the Leicestershire battery. In 1915 he was seconded to the Royal Engineers to develop a method to localise enemy artillery from the boom of their firing. On 2 September 1915 his brother was killed during the Gallipoli Campaign. Shortly afterwards, he and his father were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics. He was 25 years old and remains the youngest science laureate. The problem with sound ranging was that the heavy guns boomed at too low a frequency to be detected by a microphone. After months of frustrating failure he and his group devised a hot wire air wave detector that solved the problem. In this work he was aided by Charles Galton Darwin, William Sansome Tucker, Harold Roper Robinson, Edward Andrade and Henry Harold Hemming. British sound ranging was very effective; there was a unit in every British Army and their system was adopted by the Americans when they entered the war. For his work during the war he was awarded the Military Cross and appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire. He was also Mentioned in Despatches on 16 June 1916, 4 January 1917 and 7 July 1919.

Hot wire sound ranging was used in World War II during which he served as a civilian adviser.

Between the wars, from 1919 to 1937, he worked at the Victoria University of Manchester as Langworthy Professor of Physics. He became the director of the National Physical Laboratory in Teddington in 1937.

After World War II, Bragg returned to Cambridge, splitting the Cavendish Laboratory into research groups. He believed that "the ideal research unit is one of six to twelve scientists and a few assistants".

University of Manchester (1919–1937)

When demobilised he returned to crystallography at Cambridge. They had agreed that father would study organic crystals, son would investigate inorganic compounds. In 1919 when Ernest Rutherford, a long-time family friend, moved to Cambridge, Lawrence Bragg replaced him as Langworthy Professor of Physics at the Victoria University of Manchester. He recruited an excellent faculty, including former sound rangers, but he believed that his knowledge of physics was weak and he had no classroom experience. The students, many veterans, were critical and rowdy. He was deeply shaken but with family support he pulled himself together and prevailed. He and R. W. James measured the absolute energy of reflected X-rays, which validated a formula derived by C. G. Darwin before the war. Now they could determine the number of electrons in the reflecting targets, and they were able to decipher the structures of more complicated crystals like silicates. It was still difficult: requiring repeated guessing and retrying. In the late 1920s they eased the analysis by using Fourier transforms on the data.

In 1930, he became deeply disturbed while weighing a job offer from Imperial College, London. His family rallied around and he recovered his balance while they spent 1931 in Munich, where he did research.

National Physical Laboratory (1937–1938)

He became director of the National Physical Laboratory in Teddington in 1937, bringing some co-workers along. However, administration and committees took much of his time away from the workbench.

University of Cambridge (1938–1954)

Rutherford died and the search committee named Lawrence Bragg as next in the line of the Cavendish Professors who direct the Cavendish Laboratory. The Laboratory had an eminent history in atomic physics and some members were wary of a crystallographer, which Bragg surmounted by even-handed administration. He worked on improving the interpretation of diffraction patterns. In the small crystallography group was a refugee research student without a mentor: Max Perutz. He showed Bragg X-ray diffraction data from haemoglobin, which suggested that the structure of giant biological molecules might be deciphered. Bragg appointed Perutz as his research assistant and within a few months obtained additional support with a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation. The work was suspended during the Second World War when Perutz was interned as an enemy alien and then worked in military research.

During the war the Cavendish offered a shortened graduate course which emphasised the electronics needed for radar. Bragg worked on the structure of metals and consulted on sonar and sound ranging, they still used the Tucker microphone. He became Sir Lawrence in 1941. His father died in 1942, during which Bragg served for six months as Scientific Liaison Officer to Canada. He organised periodic conferences on X-ray analysis, which was widely used in military research.

After the war he led in the formation of the International Union of Crystallography and was elected its first president. He reorganised the Cavendish into units to reflect his conviction that "the ideal research unit is one of six to twelve scientists and a few assistants, helped by one or more first-class instrument mechanics and a workshop in which the general run of apparatus can be constructed." Senior members of staff now had offices, telephones and secretarial support. The scope of the department was enlarged with a new unit on radio astronomy. His own work focused on the structure of metals, using both X-rays and the electron microscope. In 1947 he persuaded the Medical Research Council (MRC) to support what he described as the "gallant attempt" to determine protein structure as the Laboratory of Molecular Biology, initially consisting of Perutz, John Kendrew and two assistants. Bragg worked with them, by 1960 they had resolved the structure of myoglobin to the atomic level. After this he was less involved; their analysis of haemoglobin was easier after they incorporated two mercury atoms as markers in each molecule. The first monumental triumph of the MRC was decoding the structure of DNA by James Watson and Francis Crick. Bragg announced the discovery at a Solvay conference on proteins in Belgium on 8 April 1953, it went unreported by the press. He then gave a talk at Guy's Hospital Medical Schoolin London on Thursday 14 May 1953, which resulted in an article by Ritchie Calder in the News Chronicle of London on Friday 15 May 1953, entitled "Why You Are You. Nearer Secret of Life". Bragg nominated Crick, Watson and Maurice Wilkins for the 1962 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine; Wilkins' share recognised the contribution of X-ray crystallographers at King's College London. Among them was Rosalind Franklin, whose "photograph 51" showed that DNA was a double helix, not the triple helix that Linus Pauling had proposed. Franklin died before the prize (which only goes to living people) was awarded.

The Royal Institution 1954–1971

In 1953 the Braggs moved into the elegant flat for the Resident Professor in the Royal Institution in London, the position his father had occupied when he died. In 1934 and 1961 Lawrence had delivered the Royal Institution Christmas Lectureand since 1938 he had been Professor of Natural Philosophy in the Institution, delivering an annual lecture. His father's successors had weakened the Institution, so Bragg had to rebuild it. He bolstered finances by enlisting corporate sponsors, the traditional Friday Evening Discourses were followed by a dinner party for the speaker and carefully selected possible patrons, more than 120 of them each year. "Two of these Discourses in 1965 gave him particular pleasure. On 7 May, Lady Bragg, who had been a member of the Royal Commission on Marriage and Divorce (1951–55) and was Chairman of the National Marriage Guidance Council, lectured on 'Changing patterns in marriage and divorce'; and on 15 November, Bragg listened with evident pride to the Discourse on 'Oscillations and noise in jet engines' given by his engineer-son Stephen, who was then Chief Scientist at Rolls-Royce Ltd and later became Vice-Chancellor of Brunel University." He also introduced a programme of highly regarded Schools' Lectures, enlivened by the elaborate demonstrations that were a hallmark of the Institution. He gave three of these lectures on "electricity".

He continued research in the Institution by recruiting a small group to work in the Davy-Faraday Laboratory in the basement and in the adjoining house, supported by grants he obtained. A visitor to the laboratory succeeded in inserting heavy metals into the enzyme lysozyme; the structure of its crystal was solved in 1965 at the Royal Institution by D. C. Phillips and his coworkers, with the computations on the 9,040 reflections performed on the digital computer at the University of London, which greatly facilitated the work. Two of the illustrations of the positioning of amino acids in the chain were drawn by Bragg. Unlike myoglobin, in which nearly 80 per cent of the amino-acid residues are in the alpha-helix conformation, in lysozyme the alpha-helix content is only about 40 per cent of the amino-acid residues found in four main stretches. Other stretches are of the 310 helix, a conformation that they had proposed earlier. In this conformation, every third peptide is hydrogen-bonded back to the first peptide, thus forming a ring containing ten atoms. They had the complete structure of an enzyme in time for Bragg's 75th birthday. He became Professor Emeritus in 1966.

X-ray analysis of protein structure flourished in subsequent years, determining the structures of scores of proteins in laboratories around the world. Twenty eight Nobel Prizes have been awarded for work using X-ray analysis. The disadvantage of the method is that it must be done on crystals, which precludes seeing changes in shape when enzymes bind substrates and the like. This problem was solved by the development of another line Bragg had initiated, using modified electron microscopes to image single frozen molecules: cryo-electron microscopy.

Against Seasons, February. Also a school litmag poem, and cribbed from 2020′s “Mid-September Downtown” but a little better.

Paris, June. A poem about when your lover goes to Paris.

A Foray Into Abstract Thought, September. Anti-poetry poetry (not really) written by the James River (my girlfriend). Warmup, mostly.

Report on the World War I Novel, September. One of my favorite works from this year and also a work that I do not have any confidence in the publish-ability of. Found poetry from essays I wrote for Great War class.

A Grand Palatial House of the Old South, January. Profoundly underdeveloped essay written in response to In the Dream House. Proud of the title, but the second-worst response exercise I did for nonfiction class.

Oh Taking the Waters, February. Response to Hall of Waters by Camellia-Berry Grass. “Look how depressed I was in Bath, Professor!”

The Seventh-Best Swordsperson South of the Mountains, February. A kind-of-lyric essay about being eleven years old and so stupid. Or: being gay and nonbinary, hating gym class, loving dragons. One of the best things I wrote for nonfiction class. Written in response to Brian Oliu’s Body Drop.

Several Working Lists, February. A “written at the last minute” vibe type of essay for sure, written in response to Megan Galbraith’s Guild of the Infant Savior, which I did not like all that much. It’s about generational momblems.

A Decade Ends On [Street in college town] Street, February. Sneakily, one of the best works I wrote this year was a night-before-litmag-submissions-are-due school litmag submission. I full assed this one unlike the poetry, fully intending for it to get published in part out of spite, as part of a long story that involves my dead friend and my beef with the litmag staff. [Sally Albright voice] anyway, it’s about dead friends.

What’s the Use of Worrying?, March. Essay in response to “use something that is in the public domain” prompt, which uses folk music to talk about high school, my hometown, and US politics in the 2010s. More polished but less interesting than...

At the Mirk and Midnight Hour, March. Essay in response to prompt “use something over 400 years old,” which uses the first known early modern English text of Tam Lin to talk about my love life in college.

Attack Left Falls Short, April. Long essay assignment that I wrote about fencing because everything that was On My Mind to a more real degree was not classmate workshop shareable.

Closing.

In-depth review of Year Zero for the TNYJ-3 Remedy. - Addendum_2 - Final.

This year has been an extremely bizarre experience for me on a very personal level, due to multiple factors, the first of which being this sudden switch in my overall mindset and overall sense of absolute hope and willpower on December 30th, 2021, despite the mental devastation the year caused me. Throughout the course of this year, I have grown to attribute the sudden switch in both mindset and outlook to be the initial hope I had from very early 2020. The second reason for this is because of the very powerful drive and motivation I had during the first sixth of the year, from January to February. I was so driven to make progress that by March, I was burnt out on a physical level. Speaking of March, on March 7th, 2022, the first notable negative event occurred, where my great-grandmother, Margret Hurworth-Seal died in her sleep of sepsis at age 92. At first, I was neutral about it, until March 8th and 9th, when it really began to sink in. Due to this event, three songs were composed by each of the following aliases: Hades Vortexium, Vantablack and Spectralon. The first two composing two individual works in direct response, whilst Spectralon went on to participate in a collaborative piece between itself, Hades Vortexium and Vantablack. By late-March, things began to stagnate a little due to the massive burnout caused by overworking myself a month prior.

In April, not much worth of note occurred, other than the fact that I wanted to document my entire life in musical form.

In May, I started cataloguing the songs and sounds for my own Life Mixtapes and separated my entire life lived thus far, into five distinct phases, dubbing them “TNYJ-0”, “TNYJ-1”, “TNYJ-2”, “TNYJ-3” and “TNYJ-4” respectively. All five phases (also named “stages”) spanning all of my years lived so far. The cataloguing specifically began on May 20th, 2022 and is ongoing to this day. May was also a bizarre month for the fact that I revisited Gram’s house for the first time in over 15 years and the weirder fact that the entire place, despite the renovations taking place at the time of the revisit, it felt very familiar. The revisit was specifically on May 22nd, merely 48 hours after the initial Life Mixtape cataloguing, which also proved my now weird and bizarre depth of memory. Then on the final day of the month, May 31st, I visited my Nana’s house on my own and in the complete absence of my parents for the first time in about 16 years.

In June, nothing much happened aside from the fact that my more ““known”” Hypertone career turned 2 years old and the commitment of doing shop runs along with the occasional housework.

July was a weird month, akin to May. It was the final month at the college and the first month of having short hair for the first time in about a year. Outside of that, July was the first time I ever hung out with a close friend outside of school in over five years. At home, I (mostly) sat in my room, occasionally spending time with family and doing housework.

In August, my final ever Hypertone song as “Vortex Reaper” hit 2K views on YouTube, thanks to some kid named “DJ Jayden” sampling it in an FnF song for a mod. As a celebration of the anniversary, I did a remix EP for it and it was released on August 26th, 2022.

In September, school picked up again, and thus started “18th year - Salvation - Stage 5: Academic Continuation”. However, the one (good) thing about September is that the debut EP from my duo band project “TeaL” was completed after almost two entire months. As well as the implementation of “Phantom Vibrations”, an alias that focuses on Infinitesimal Slow Music (ISM). Then the most bizarre event of this decade so far (since the outbreak of COVID-19) happened: Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, died. It will probably be the weirdest notable event of mine and everyone else’s (who lived to *witness it (hear about it, at least)) life.

During October, the month was rather average, akin to September, until the 16th. On 16/10/22, I have experienced the biggest and most deepest blow to my mental health, mindset, motivation and my immediate family, caused by my parents separating as a result of another argument that they had in the evening of 15/10/22. Since then, I have been battling internally moreso than I ever have during this entire year. On Halloween, I went ghost hunting with my father, videoing a 6-part series to document the most memorable Halloween in quite a long while.

In November, I had the most memorable birthday in a long, long time, I got a PC, Gaming Keyboard and Mouse and TWS i12 Bluetooth earphones. I went to the pub with both my parents, having a great time! Other than my birthday, nothing much of note occurred.

This month, however, has been more eventful than the previous. By a large sum. My PC got inspected for damage after not booting up, I got it back exactly on Christmas Day, with it being both setup and reset, I started making music on it straight away. Starting the final large-scale project of my career pertaining to albums: a 404-track LP album, titled “Absence Of God”, which is still in development. Due to my PC’s lack of internet connectivity, the tracks will be released at a later date, however, they’ll still be released very early-on in the new year.

This year has been a success in regard to the intended mission heading into it, given that it was meant to be “Mission Progress” and a “Test” for the remedy’s initiation.

Next year will be better because I intend to put more work and drive into it.

- YEAR ZERO

- 18th Year - Salvation. - Day 365. - Week 52 - Day 0. - Month 12 - Week 4 - Day 3.

- CONCLUDING.

Tracking Deluge and Drought through Soil Moisture After abundant rain and flooding in the Mississippi Valley and other regions in 2019, drought returned to much of the United States in 2021-22. From wet to dry, both extremes have implications for soils and the agriculture it supports. The opposing extremes were detected by NASA satellites. But it was a novel tool—the Soil Moisture Analytics (Crop-CASMA) product—that integrated this satellite data into a format that was particularly useful to people. With Crop-CASMA’s high-resolution, timely information on soil moisture, farmers and agriculture managers could track the areas of high and low moisture more closely. The animations on this page, based on data from Crop-CASMA, show soil moisture anomalies in the top 10 centimeters (4 inches) of the ground across the conterminous United States. This surface layer, or topsoil, holds water used by plants in their earliest stages, from sprouts to seedlings. Too little or too much water during these phases of growth can mean trouble for crops. Winter and spring 2019 delivered too much water, particularly in the Mississippi and Missouri River watersheds. Rapidly melting snow and ice, along with a barrage of storms, led to flash floods across Midwestern states. Meanwhile, the United States as a whole saw its soggiest 12 months in 124 years of modern recordkeeping. The wet conditions forced many farmers to delay planting. Other farmers did not plant at all. The abundance of moisture is apparent in the first animation (March through July 2019). Darker blue areas indicate where Crop-CASMA found more water than average for each date. Each pixel represents 9 square kilometers (3 square miles). This resolution allows farmers and resource managers to observe soil moisture conditions at the scale of towns and counties instead of states. Areas of above-average moisture are almost always flashing across some part of the landscape, which becomes evident in the second animation (March 2021 through June 2022). For instance, in August 2021, category-4 Hurricane Ida drenched the U.S. East. Putting the Crop-CASMA dataset to work, the USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) was able to determine where crops might be damaged. But amid the fleeting weather events of the past eighteen months, notice the vast areas where the soil became and stayed drier than normal (brown). By summer 2021, drought parched much of the United States from the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific Coast. The dryness extended down into the root zone—the top meter (3 feet) of soil. This layer (not pictured) holds the water used by more established plants, making it an important component of crop health later in the growing season. Unusually dry topsoil and root-zone soil are among the key indicators of drought. In early August 2021, USDA NASS reported that 56 percent of the total cropland in California had significantly less moisture in the root zone than what is required for normal plant development. The analysis stated: “Growth has been stopped, or nearly so, and plants are showing visible signs of moisture stress. Under these conditions, plants will quickly suffer irreparable damage.” Compared to groundwater, the surface layers respond quickly to weather events. Even after an atmospheric river brought historic rain and snowfall to the West Coast in late October 2021, soils quickly dried again. Then California saw its driest January, February, and March on record in 2022, as nearly all of the state fell into severe to extreme drought. Analyses of soil conditions, along with Crop-CASMA’s web GIS tool, can help farmers and resource managers to time the planting and irrigation of crops and forecast yields, particularly as drought continues this year. By the end of June 2022, almost half of the United States was in moderate to extreme drought; just 3 percent was severely to extremely wet.

The Crop-CASMA product was developed by scientists at the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), George Mason University, and NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center and Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Crop-CASMA integrates measurements from NASA’s Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) satellite and vegetation indices from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instruments on NASA’s Terra and Aqua satellites.

Announcements for Next Month!

Since next month is Pride Month, we're going to have the other three major couples answer a couple of questions you may have for them! (Disclaimer: there's not a guarantee that all of them will be answered, depending on who is asked; I do want all three couples to get a day in the limelight.) This means that Vicky and Polly will be taking a break, and any questions you have for them will likely be answered in August.

Why not July? Well, @shslbs and I will be going on hiatus once again. Both of us are going through big changes in July, so we're gonna need to focus on them. In the meantime, May's batch of asks will be posted one week from today, and of course, June's will be arriving at the end of that month!

Of course, I have to do the obligatory thank you for the support! I can hardly believe this blog will be a year old by the time we get back!

#Monster Prom #Hiatus #Summer Hiatus #Vicky #Vicky Blue #Vicky Schmidt #Polly #Polly Geist #SEGASister #shslbs #Ask Box Update #Second Phase (February 2021 - June 2021)

Cases resolved in 2021 (pt. 2)

The second set of cases covered on this blog that were resolved in 2021. Links to more detailed write-ups on each case are provided. Read part one here.

The murder of Sydney Loofe.

Sydney Loofe (24) was brutally murdered in Wilber, Nebraska on November 15th, 2017. She was brought to an apartment in Wilber by a young woman named Bailey Boswell, whom she met on Tinder. Sydney thought that she was meeting up with Bailey for a second date, but was instead lured into something far more sinister. Bailey and her 51 year-old boyfriend, Aubrey Trail, had been looking for a young woman to help fulfill their fantasies of sexual torture, but Sydney was unaware of this. At some point after Sydney arrived at their apartment, she was strangled to death and then dismembered. Her remains were found in a rural area of Clay County just a few weeks later.

In June 2018, Both Bailey and Aubrey were charged with first-degree murder and improper disposal of human skeletal remains in the killing of Sydney Loofe. Their trials were separate, but both ultimately ended up being found guilty. However, the penalty phases of their trials stretched into 2021, as both were being considered for the death penalty. In June 2021, Aubrey Trail was sentenced to death--with the judge stating that the “exceptional depravity” of the crime is what made it fit the criteria for the death penalty. Bailey, on the other hand, was spared the death penalty and was sentenced to life in prison in November 2021.

The disappearance & presumed murder of Kelsie Schelling.

Kelsie Schelling had just recently found out learned she was pregnant when she disappeared from Pueblo, Colorado on February 5th, 2013. The 21 year-old was reportedly pregnant with the child of her on-again, off-again boyfriend Donthe Lucas. Kelsie vanished after driving two hours from Denver to Pueblo to visit Donthe, per his request. She never returned to Denver and was never seen or heard from again. Both cell phone records and surveillance footage confirmed that Donthe and Kelsie did, in fact, meet up shortly before her disappearance. Additionally, surveillance footage from several places around Pueblo captured Donthe driving Kelsie’s car around between February 6th and 7th--without Kelsie--before eventually abandoning the vehicle at a hospital.

Donthe was eventually arrested and charged with murdering Kelsie in December 2017. He went to trial during February 2021 and was ultimately found guilty. During the trial, prosecutors stated that Donthe killed Kelsie and disposed of her body in a landfill. Cell phone pings revealed that Donthe was at a landfill just hours after Kelsie was last seen. He then tried to cover up the murder by using Kelsie’s phone to send text messages, impersonating her. Donthe was later sentenced to life in prison without parole.

The murders of Kara Kopetsky & Jessica Runions.

Kara Kopetsky and Jessica Runions vanished nine years apart from neighboring towns in Missouri. Kara vanished from Belton at the age of 17 during 2007, while Jessica vanished from Grandview at the age of 23 during 2016. Both girls were involved with a man named Kylr Yust prior to their disappearances. In fact, Kara had ended a relationship with Kylr just weeks before she vanished--and she had obtained a restraining order against him as well. Many suspected that Kylr was responsible for Kara’s disappearance, and Kylr himself had confessed to numerous people that he had killed her as well. Over the next nine years, Kylr was in and out of jail on various violent charges, but he still had not been charged with anything related to Kara’s disappearance.

Jessica Runions vanished after leaving a party with Kylr during September 2016. Two days later, Kylr was arrested on arson charges after Jessica’s car was found on fire. Months later, Jessica Runions’ remains were spotted by a mushroom hunter in a rural area of Cass County. When investigators came to investigate the area, a second set of remains were found. Those remains were eventually identified as that of Kara Kopetsky. Kylr was subsequently charged with killing both Kara and Jessica. He finally went to trial during 2021. A jury ultimately convicted him of voluntary manslaughter for the death of Kara, and second-degree murder for the death of Jessica. Kylr was later sentenced to life in prison plus 15 years. A detailed timeline of this case can be found here.

Two more Su-57s are seen during delivery to the Russian Air Force

Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 02/08/22 - 12:00 pm in Military

Two new Su-57 built in 2021 at the Komsomolsk-on-Amur aviation factory (KnAAZ, a subsidiary of the Sukhoi Company PJSC) with the red numbers "02" and "52" during an intermediate landing at Novosibirsk Tolmachevo Airport. (Photo: NSKPlanes)

Novosibirsk aviation observers photographed two new fifth-generation Su-57 fighters, which made an intermediate landing at Novosibirsk Tolmachevo airport on February 3, 2022, while they were transferred to their bases in the European part of Russia.

Judging by the photographs of NSKPlanes personnel, the two Su-57 jets manufactured by Sukhoi have the red numbers "02" and "52".The Su-57 aircraft with tail number "02 red" bears the emblem of the 929th State Flight Test Center in honor of V.P. Chkalov of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation in Akhtubinsk (Astrakhan Region) and apparently is intended for this unit. Remember that the first serial Su-57 fighter (T-50S-2 aircraft, serial number 51002) produced by KnAAZ received at the end of January 2021 by the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation received the number "01" (originally blue), and, according to known data, was also transferred to the 929th GLITs in Akhtubinsk.

The second Su-57 aircraft, now photographed in Novosibirsk, has the number "52 red" and had previously appeared in a KnAAZ promotional video, but with the tail number "52" in blue. Interestingly, this aircraft in Novosibirsk carries the registration number RF-81775 on its keels. Previously, this registration number RF-81775 was briefly used during deployment in Syria in early 2018 in the last and tenth flight prototype of PAK FA - the T-50-11 aircraft with tail number "511".

It can be assumed that the new Su-57 with tail number "52 red" can enter the 4th Order of Lenin of the center for military testing and personnel training of the VKS in honor of VP Chkalov of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation at Lipetsk airfield.

At the end of 2021, KnAAZ delivered two Su-57 fighters in series to the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, which corresponded to Sukhoi's planned task. These two Su-57 aircraft transferred to the Russian Aerospace Forces presumably have serial numbers 52201 (T-50S-3) and 52202 (T-50S-4), and are the third and fourth serial production Su-57 built by KnAAZ.

In August 2018, at the International Technical-Military Forum "Army-2018", the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation and the PJSC "Company" Sukhoi "signed a contract for the supply to the Armed Forces of the first two fifth-generation Su-57 series fighters with "first stage" engines (product 117) in 2018-2020. In June 2019, at the Army-2019 International Technical-Military Forum, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation and the Sukhoi Company PJSC signed a contract for the supply of a total of 76 fifth generation Su-57 series fighters to the Armed Forces (including the first two aircraft contractors from 2018). The term of the contract is 2027.

The first standard Su-57 aircraft, built in KnAAZ, made its first flight in Komsomolsk-on-Amur in early December 2019 and was planned to be transferred to the Ministry of Defense on December 27, but on December 24, 2019, in the final phase of factory tests, it fell as a result of an accident, presumably due to a failure in the aircraft's control system

2020 in perspective...

i originally got into south park in 2010, left the fandom in 2011, then nearly a decade later in december, 2019 i came back again.

January: butters sketch

i hadn’t been in a serious fandom for years, hadn’t drawn or written anything seriously in years. i went on a trip to denver, colorado, and came back ready to get fucking into it. i started writing the longest single work i’ve done to date, Ecstasy (130k, not yet posted). this piece was the first drawing i did this year, while riding the train home from my internship. a shitty little sketch of butters from the fanfic, with mohawk and glasses.

February: latex tweek

still traditional art only. started getting serious about shading, and drew LATEX TWEEK (also from Ecstasy). Finished the 1st draft of the fanfic this month and went into the editing phase.

March: juggalo stan and kyle

why? did i forget to mention everyone in Ecstasy is a juggalo? long story. finished the current (final?) draft of Ecstasy.

April: stan and mpreg kyle

STILL doing traditional art. started working on my next fanfic project, a prequel to Ecstasy--BUT FIRST i read @blesspastacraig‘s fanfic Best Laid Plans and it inspired me to write my oneshot Our Fish Alien (2k, complete). Got my Ao3 account this month and decided to post it with some art. hence, style mpreg art. started incorporating prop elements (hospital bed), but still too spooked to try backgrounds.

my friend @cola-fiend convinced me to make a tumblr and post some sketches, ergo here we are. this eventually lead requesters to ask for more mpreg, which snowballed until i made a fucking discord server for it, but i’m getting ahead of myself.

May: fat kyle

the last time i did digital art was 2015 when my tablet broke, then in may i found out there’s free phone apps for drawing. so my first digital drawing in half a decade was fat kyle and his skinny boytoy 😂 by now i’d scrapped my plans for an Ecstasy prequel and had started writing Eat That Lunch (27k, complete), and wanted the art to look better. i started by drawing the lines traditionally then coloring the picture digitally 😬 yikes

June: crimson dawn

now we’re cooking with gas. i watched a few art tutorials and tried drawing something serious with digital line art. i was working on my tiny fucking iphone 5 screen and this piece took over 35 hours 🤘😔 no backgrounds yet

July: tweek and baby

my first commission! @blesspastacraig and i are now collaborators and friends and i got to illustrate some of her fanfictions. this one’s from Algorithm! (which i totally helped inspire >_>) blurry ‘baby’s first’ background in there too. i also started writing the sequel to ETL this month, What They Say About Us (50~k, incomplete), but didn’t publish it until september.

August: boxer tweek

first attempt at a lineless, painting style. did this one for tweek’s birthday. not a great first piece for a new art style, but a very important design shift that’s changed how i color completely. also switched to an ipad instead of my small-ass phone screen phew

September: boys eat at shakey’s

posted WTSAU! i wanted to make this fic look super fucking good and probably put more effort than i should have into all the art. BUT, forcing myself to illustrate it is what’s really helped me gain more artistic skills. this is my first scenic piece with full color background. i also started writing my next big fic, Wayward Son (50~k, not yet posted), based in the same universe as @blesspastacraig‘s fanfic Hungry. it was supposed to be a oneshot and now it’s 95 pages long dammit!! 😭

October: broflovski passover

resumed online classes and creative progress suffered for it 😔 i still managed to put out a lot of work i’m proud of, like this seder scene from WTSAU chapter 3. full background and 8 characters? pssh, can’t scare me. i showed this drawing to my boss, who named it ‘the confused gentile’. oh stan.

November: gunslinger kyle and stan of many moons

honestly? not sure how i survived this month. but i knew the start of december was gonna be worse so i jumped on style week as soon as they put the prompts out (this was the second one i drew). at this point i enjoy painting backgrounds more than the figures in them.

December: style clubhouse

i drew so much stuff this month it’s hard to pick one thing to represent it all, but--the seventh day of style week has a bit of everything i’ve learned. background. colors. lighting. concept. crazy when you compare it to january.

now i’m back to work on putting out WTSAU chapter 5. after that’s done i’ll pick which fanfic to post next and get cracking on art for that. Wayward Son’s in it’s final pages, so i’ll be picking up a new fanfic project in the coming weeks too.

overall? 2020, you were a wild south park year, just like 2010. i honestly can’t believe how far i’ve come as an artist considering i spent the first 1/3rd of this year sketching on napkins and shit, and here we are. looking forward to all the improvement in 2021 💚💙

#muh art #and never fear drawing backgrounds!!!#ecstasy #our fish alien #eat that lunch #what they say about us #wayward son #muh fanfic #i've written other fanfics during this time but they aren't as big as the ones mentioned #sorry Anomaly 😢
