In order to feel sorrow and sadness for the death of a person, first I need to respect that person in life. I don't have to be a relative or close person to that person, but at least have some respect. In this world you either gain or lose the respect of people, and Charlie Kirk never earned my respect. he was a terrible person alive who did a lot of damage to the world.

Charlie Kirk spread misinformation, was an bigoted person, and advocated for violence. And I find it hypocritical for people to tell me to respect his death when he sowed the seeds of his own death by creating this environment we live in and that people complain about. yes, violence is bad and there should be better ways to solve problems but that doesn't redeem this piece of shit and he wasn't even an important person in life, he was just an insufferable asshole who lived from doing inflammatory speeches, and his only achievement in life was to give a platform to horrible people and to the current social division and benefit from that division.

and if you still believe that the guy was good person who never did wrong or contributed negatively to the current social and political landscape here's a list of the things he said in life, with sources:

• Gay people should be stoned to death
• If I see a Black pilot, I'm going to be like: "Boy, I hope he's qualified."
• Taylor Swift should reject feminism and submit to her husband and have a ton of children
• I'm not a fan of retirement, I don't think retirement is biblical
• British colonialism actually made the world decent
• If some amazing patriot out there in San Francisco wants to really be a midterm hero, someone should go and bail this guy out + David DePape's trial for the assault of the Pelosi's
• You cannot have liberty if you don't have a Christian population
• MLK Jr. was an awful person
• The Great Replacement Theory is a reality + The Great Replacement conspiracy theory
• Hydroxychloroquine is 100% effective against COVID-19 + Hydroxychloroquine and its side effects
• It’s almost this apartheid-style. Oh, you can have your freedom back if you get the jab
• It's worth to have some gun deaths every single year so we can have the 2nd Amendment
• Having children is more important than having a good career
• Birth control like really screws up female brains
• George Floyd was a scumbag
• The 1964 Civil Rights Act has now turned into an anti-white weapon + Civil Rights Act of 1964
• Mamdani is a parasite. We are not a dumping ground for the rest of the planet
• Palestine doesn't exist

I ask again: how do you want me to respect a horrible person who spent all his life spitting poison and benefiting from a divided society?

look, I'm not asking for more violence and harassment for the family, what I'm trying to saying is that we should not forget that this guy was a bad person who did pretty much harm to society and we shouldn't remember him fondly, we cannot "focus on the good" when there was no good to begin with, at best, we should remember him more as a lesson for what not to do in the future and avoid this type of person and fight their wrong doings with Information, basic reasoning and a bit of critical thinking, because that was Kirk's way to earn his life and lead to all the problems we are suffering right now. he died because of the environment he helped to create and feeling empathy for him feels wrong when you remember that he once said:

"I think empathy is a made up New Age term that does a lot of damage" - Charlie Kirk

And if he didn't believe in basic empathy then why I should feel bad for him? Kirk was an asshole that exploited the believes of vulnerable people and the ignorance of a country to benefit personally and politically and no one will miss him, except... IDK 4Chan and Twitter and the rest of racist, transphobes/homophobes, xenophobes, and conspiracy nuts online and you shouldn't pay attention to the condolences the US and UK and other governments are doing to him. if people want to remember his life than dead (like a normal passing of a person) then let's remind people who really was Charlie Kirk in life and on top of that let's not forget the other issues going around, specially for what's happening internationally.  

The only thing I can do is dedicating this song to him:

Stay safe.

Yeah, now I will not miss him. If I knew the reason before, my previous blog would have been different.

Jesus Fucking Christ...

He's gone. I really want to know why?

Yesterday, my 19 years relationship with Windows has come to an end. over the last decade Windows has become more hostile, unreliable, and borderline unusable hardware wise. I'm tired of being forced to use gimmicks and being subject of a privacy violation, on top of that, I feel sick of continuing supporting Microsoft with all this massive Layoffs and destruction of companies under their umbrella and how they support terrible causes . I'm currently a user of a basic Laptop for almost everything, games, art, paperwork, web-browsing. it's not a monster on resources but I managed to get at least some decent upgrades, upgrades that aren't enough for the smelly and ugly fat fuck of Windows 11 and even with 10 y RAM upgrades didn't made the difference because it also sucks a lot of my CPU and RAM.

I said enough and finally dare to switch to Linux, part of that decision was not only because of Microsoft, but also Valve with their Steam Deck managed to convinced me to try this environment, learning to configure and tinker with my brother's Deck gave me a tease of what can offer in terms of user experience and gaming, sure it's not without it's problems and accessibility but seeing that the fucking file explorer actually working (UNLIKE WINDOWS EXPLORER!) can change you.

Originally I was schedule to switch to Linux Mint in October of this year, the end of support of Windows 10, but the avalanche of terrible news coming from MS made me change my plans and switch this summer. with help of people like James Lee and his videos about corporate greed and his awful relationship with Adobe and very useful tutorials like @AhWham's Linux Mint - Setup, Customization, and Familiarity tutorial managed to get a good grip of my target Distro and after a brief installation I finally have Linux Mint 21.1 running on my humble HP laptop. got my games working thanks to Steam and Heroic Games Launcher and the power of Proton, my table works on Linux too, pen pressure and Krita is all set up and the rest of my software is A-OK. I'm still learning to use the terminal and how this environment works but thankfully Mint makes things more easy.

Linux is not without it's problems and accessibility issues, in fact, I got a lot of issues trying to Install my GOG copy of Dishonored on Heroic only to discover that I Installed the launcher wrong, and I'm still having this feeling of being a stranger in a strange land, but it's a worthy sacrifice to do in order to have a better future PC wise and seeing how Windows only gets worst and worst, will be more people willing to enter GNU/Linux and try to make an effort of making it more easy for the average people just like Windows in the 90's only without a corporate overlord reign supreme.

If you excuse me, I'm gonna buy my thigh long socks.

Yes, I said it. but that doesn't mean I hate Toby Fox or it's success. I have something called nuance and respect. and what this world needs right now is empathy and perseverance.

Regardless of your feelings with pornographic content, you should be worry about the recent wave of takedowns forced by Collective Shout via Visa and MasterCard. not only shows that it's deeply worrisome that payment card companies have this power but also be used to move agendas. no, not that agenda you are thinking. I'm talking about a real one that exists unlike that Meth induced fantasy pushed by grifters online. I'm talking about a conservative one aim to harm smaller groups of people and it's pretty effective.

Collective Shout is not a progressive group that aims for the well being of society and much less for the safety of the youth, they are rotten to the core organization that seeks the opposite of progress. the founder, Melinda Tankard Reist, is a textbook Conservative Christian and a certified TERF (Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist) and I am not Inventing this, just check her Wikipedia page and see for yourself! sound contradictory that combination, but it its real!

She Identify herself as a "pro-life feminist" which is not a good start from here.

Melinda Tankard Reist career page

The thing about her Career. most of her work are with TERF groups and Conservative Christian organizations. but the biggest highlight is Spinifex Press on the last source of the page.

Rap music page

Videogame page

And you cannot being a Conservative Christian without demonizing Rap Music and Videogames, accusing them of provoking real life violence and misery.

As you can see, Collective Shout is not that beacon of moral the claim to be. they are using the typical excuse of "THINK ABOUT THE KIDS!" this was never about the kids or pornography itself. this is an attack with clear intentions. and Pornographic content is used as a scapegoat and this is something that's happening right now in the US with the recent change of power

Project 2025 page - Identity

This is the real reason of why the ban of porn, the awful excuse of LGBTQ+ (regardless of everything)= Pornography and this is the must disgusting thing I ever seen and Collective Shout advocate for this. they don't advocate for progress, they don't advocate for for people, they don't advocate for moral, they advocate for censorship, they advocate for the suppression of Identity, they advocate for the continuous marginalization of minorities and groups disguise as progress and well being and destroying the reputation and trust of real groups that seek for the good of society.

Stand up against this! Don't just sit there with your arms crossed. censorship is bad for everyone and this is just the beginning, the LGBTQ+ collective is just one of various targets and soon it will reach a nasty apex.

James Gunn' Superman is the best thing I ever saw recently with superheroes on it. It's an honest to god comic book story with all it's elements, Gunn clearly understands what makes Superman works. The characters are on spot, Lex Luthor killed it as a villain.

Go watch it NOW!

Stay cool Newgrounds. we need you in this difficult times. artists and people alike.

Fuck it, OC Lore Dump incoming. Basically none of my characters are from the USA. some are Americans but the definition of "American" is far more wide than that  ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶n̶o̶t̶ ̶s̶a̶y̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶i̶t̶ ̶w̶a̶s̶ ̶h̶i̶j̶a̶c̶k̶e̶d̶. It also referees to the rest of the American countries.

1. Ruby: Venezuelan-Brazilian with African ascendance
2. Skye: British-Jamaican
3. Cuervo: Mexican
4. Goldie and Erik (the new guy): European
5. Violet: Hell (duh)

Happy 4th of July!

Now there's a much simpler and straight to the point commission sheet. much better than the older one. I'm still open if you are interested. it would be also great to spread the word!
