It’s funny how I’ve been separated from my desktop (where I drew pretty much everything) since August and now it’s November and I’m only just now noticing all the dumb issues preventing me from working on blog updates.

Hahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

So Inkscape is, for some reason, near unusable on my laptop. It’s unresponsive to mouse clicks 75% of the time. And so far, I can’t seem to figure out why.

What do I need Inkscape for, you ask? Well, that’s how I add text to comic panels. :V

Looks like I’m gonna have to use something else… Ugh. Change. V:

Hockey. Pick up hockey. It's fun to watch.

Hockey is my least favorite sport to watch because I can’t follow that tiny-ass puck being swung everywhere. Makes the sport look like unsynchronized ice skating with a bunch of beefy padded men smacking the floor with sticks.

(post script)

I might as well start watching other stuff in case the horses sink and I’m not left in the dark. :v

Steven Universe bored me the last time I attempted to watch it, but apparently I need to go deeper in order to “feel it”. So maybe I’ll try again.

Gravity Falls is great from what I’ve seen, but I haven’t caught up on it all. Probably should get on that.

Following @nitrus-baro has gotten me interesting Wander Over Yonder, so I’ll also try that sometime.

… Undertale. >:c
 My dashboard is 80% Undertale-related and it’s close to surpassing the “horribly annoying” phase and going into “OKAY FUCKING FINE I’LL FUCKING PLAY IT.”

And I think that’s it.

Eh.

I guess it’s due to the people I follow and/or the friends I have, but I’m starting to get the impression that MLP is entering denouement.

Don’t get me wrong, season 5 has been great. But the recent bout of “meh” episodes has been getting me to think that maybe the writers are starting to hit a couple of walls.

Especially with Twilight. Good lord. All season, she’s been practically absent and in the times she has been the focus, she doesn’t even sound like herself. Like she’s just hanging around not doing anything productive, exaggerating her worries, and just appearing to be simply useless! This princess thing has been essentially detrimental to her development as she’s apparently hit her peak and has nowhere to go but straight down. Ugh. And she was one of my favorite characters :c

Of course, I’m probably gonna eat these words by the time the finale hits. Maybe it’s some intentional bug that becomes the focus of the last two episodes. But even after that, I fear that S6 will only continue this trend downhill. All the way to the series’ completion.
