Huh! That's interesting.
So... what do you feel the hyrax-love stems from, if I may ask?
I mean-- there's a load of cute, furry / feathery animals out there, but ask me how many sub-lemmies / sub-pies subscribe to gophers, right..? XD

Haha, I also like to post ZIP files upon meaning, just for fun.
Well done. 🙂

There are so many unsung heroes of evolution that we’ll never know about. They failed so all of us alive now could succeed.
This probably goes back 10-15yrs, but there was this youngish Romanian gal who taught me that in fact, every single species is a transitional species. I.e., you cannot name a single species across history that isn't, you understand? To me, this is a WHOMPINGLY relevant point upon the whole process of evolution.
And for me, that's after taking multiple biology & zoology courses in HS and college, haha, which sort of imparted the idea that there are 'discrete steps' to the whole evolution thang, if that makes sense.
Then this gal just blew me out of the water (particularly since I was in the States & she's in E.Europe and her English was damn-good)! But it was her dangol' message that was so on-point.
Oof, took me an hour to FINALLY found that wunderkind, but I finally FOUND HER: :D

So I'm going through her videos as we speak, but I fear... gosh, that she might have been killed in regional violence / politics ~8yrs ago. That's when she disappeared.
*&@#$, she was one of the most smartest-effective-relevant people I've listened to in my life. DAMMIT!

Hi Otter! Guess this is an 'other' acct of yours?
Whoa... amazing that place has so many subscribers! Count it +1 now. :D
Kinda reminds me of @[email protected]'s work for SuperbOwl. Do you know it? (and apologies for two name-drops in the past couple days, anon)

If your parents or grandparents are 60-75Myrs old, my friends, then even Mel Brooks might be interested in your lineage! XD
Seriously, tho, thanks for the correction.

Ooh, nice one! Not unlike my curiosity upon where the hell the Basque language came from, anyway.
Now, according to a quick search, Finnish & the Magyar language seem to have split around 4-4,500yrs ago? That's a BOATLOAD of time, though.
Almost like trying to relate wildly-different languages from the Indo-European language group, right..?

Can anyone help me identify this art? (1° of separation from actual BD art, whoops)

Na, da muss ich ja mal den Mund halten und mir den Hintern versohlen lassen!
It looks like the series actually was published in English, by ABLAZE! Now checking their site I don't actually see it, which likely means it's out of print. So (not sure where you are) you might be able to hit up your LCS (or whatever) and see if there are issues they might stock for a reasonable price.
Btw, you may hate me for this, but I first asked this of GPT, then did some followup searches to confirm. If it helps, the initial query is here.

I hope you get a chance to read it, friend! I would not say it's 'top-top-tier' but it's quite solid, with that really distinct, enjoyable art. ❤️
(I rarely see cool shit like that across... uh, any and ALL comics)

Lois getting a bit handsy and complacent (Kerry Callen) [story-arc in post] [dark-humor, NSFW]
And in case anyone of the downvoters were wondering, that's my own dark-humored prose at work, not an LLM or whatever.
TBH, the whole thing kinda stems from Margot Kidder doing such a fantastic job as a brassy, borderline-annoying-AF Lois Lane in the original films, plus the fact that I lowkey came to hate Marvel-DC comics.
That's all JohnnyEnzyme text above, folks. :D

Little guy scared the crap out of me this morning.
Fun fact:
Snake venoms are generally classified into four main functional types: neurotoxic (attacking the nervous system), hemotoxic (disrupting blood clotting and destroying red blood cells), cytotoxic (destroying local cells and tissues), and myotoxic (causing rapid muscle breakdown).

Shit... I hate to hear about CFS hitting younger people (which I assume you are, 'he naively stated'). Like, at least I made it to late middle-age. I would not wish this shizzle on my worst enemy.
Feel free to share details, or whatever you like.

I wound up solving the problem myself after a few days. Simply updating my Firefox browser was enough, but whatever they did on their end necessitated that update in the worst way.

I was also thinking that, and one or two other artworks I've posted here over the years but can't remember off the top of my head.
There's also a whole series of German post-apoc BD that it's close to art-wise, as in Gung Ho. It's been translated in to French, but not sure about English.

Thank you! I seem to be getting better, and honestly the "stroke" term is a bit of a placeholder, not unlike my whole disease, ME/CFS.
My stepdad came to visit me a couple weeks ago, which I was greatly looking forward to based on fun times we've had in the past. After planning things out the first day, I went to bed, slept well, and could barely function the rest of the trip. Kept falling down and falling asleep as we tried to do some stuff the next day. Went to the ER the next day, sat around for ~14hrs, and unfortunately, they couldn't turn up much.
I've been trying to adjust some things ever since, like more salt and iodine capsules, and so far so good, but I've still been knocked down a whole level. Which is not good when you already have ME/CFS and are mainly bed-bound. But... we all have problems in life. :S

And yeah, that video seems so iconic of the USA / Hong Kong in the 80's. I wonder what music videos were like in France, in the 80's?
I do remember the hilarious Ca Plane Pour Moi and that beautiful movie song A La Claire Fontaine... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9kWRpPy1ic

Oh flog me, it's embarrassing for me still to be using Windows at this point. Really need to decide upon one of the millions of flavors of Linux to at least create a dual-boot system. 😑
So, circling back to the https://getwacup.com/ page, do you know what's meant by the "public WACUP preview" download? Is it just a demo or something with limited options, do you know?
