apple is dead set on murdering my ability to track rss feeds
how do you guys keep track of stuff? not gonna lie, i probably wouldn't keep up with stuff like dumbing of age without an rss feed just automatically dumping it in front of my eyes for the 30 seconds it takes to read

the number of comics that have succumbed to Steven Universe Syndrome is truly, truly tragic.

they stop updating for months at a time only to post several pages at once before vanishing again?

Well now I don't understand any of Raidah's anger, or Sarah's. Seems like Sarah helped stop her friend from self destructing.

raidah doesn't believe there was anything wrong, she's convinced everything was fine and sarah ruined it all by tattling on roommate's weed habit, because the roommate only showed her depression in the privacy of their own room.

Kate Beaton and IIRC someone else good (Meredith Gran?) legit got creeped clean off the forums but I don't think that'd qualify as "too much criticism"

i felt bad for john campbell! like cmon dude, he was having a nervous breakdown largely because of the financial strain of the big expensive independent internet payment model getting dumped on him.

i think we should be making more books tbh! books last longer than computers will

you know part of what sent them into that spiral was facing down going broke trying to pay all the 'cheap' postage to ship kickstarter rewards, right

Does anyone remember a black and white comic about someone impersonating a god's 'chosen one' after the real guy got murdered? It went on hiatus for awhile when I lost track of it. Randomly thought of it this morning but I can't remember the name. God-something?

Blindsprings is a fantasy comic about the conflict between academic wizards and priests making deals with fairies. It's got a very cute art style, which is what really draws me to it. I feel like it's about time the comic introduced something on the broader scale to give the story a sense of urgency, though. As it is we're thrown into a setting where clearly a lot of bad stuff is happening but it doesn't feel to me like there's really stakes yet. Maybe this will come in time. Or maybe I'm just forgetting details of the plot so far.


i just finished a re-read the other day. i think all needed the details are there to start putting the pressure on, the cast just hasn't explicitly put together what's happening yet

I’m beginning to suspect the correct answer is “gently caress both factions with a rusty spoon” because nether side, between a gaggle of paranoid facist child slavers and fae who have on more than one occasion made their disappointment in their faustian bargains being too utilitarian (and are also into child abductions but thats fae for you), sounds entirely great.

yeah, it doesn't look like the acadamists were entirely wrong to overthrow the spirit backed magical monarchy, but at the same time there's that whole no spirits->no magic->no life issue looming under everything

i've been using NewsBlur lately, I think someone in this thread suggested it. Works well enough now that apple seems dead set on murdering any native rss support
