We received a tip from @eclectic-spaghetti that you can use the Grizzco Slosher to kill a Stinger in one slosh, and we’re happy to confirm that you can! You have to aim at the top of the Stinger with enough range between you so that the slosh reaches its max range and it falls out of its arc right on top of the Stinger, but it’s super satisfying if you manage it!
Grizzco Slosher is actually great, you guys are just mean used to weapons with much lower ink consumption, and haven’t tried sloshing directly at a shielded drizzler, the front of a scrapper, or the main body of a flyfish or steelhead. Also I personally appreciate how the slow movement of sloshes matches your swim speed, so you don’t get stuck as easily on drizzlers or flyfish missiles.
I’m going to say something super controversial here: billionaires shouldn’t exist
i used to think billionaires were like. slightly richer millionaires but for reference: a million seconds is 12 days, a billion seconds is THIRTY TWO YEARS.
no one can convince me that it’s possible to possess a billion dollars, much less dozens of billions of dollars, and not be a disgusting terrible shitty unethical heartless human being
WHAT IF I MADE A HILARIOUS BUT INFORMATIVE BOOK THAT TEACHES ANYONE HOW TO REBUILD CIVILIZATION FROM SCRATCH, IN ANY PERIOD OF EARTH’S HISTORY?
THEN WHAT IF I LAUNCHED A KICKSTARTER WHERE YOU COULD GET THE BOOK, BUT ALSO GET AWESOME THINGS LIKE A TIME TRAVEL SURVIVAL BANDANA AND TEMPORAL TOURISM POSTCARDS FROM DIFFERENT PERIODS IN EARTH’S HISTORY, ALL FOR THE SAME PRICE AS YOU’D PAY FOR THE BOOK ALONE??
Holy shit – so I put almost every word to “always”, in keeping with my foul fucking mouth, except for the one or two I don’t use much, and it got my age to within a year. This is fucking hardcore magic.
ARTIST ALLEY CONVENTION THEFT PSA:
There is an ORGANIZED group stealing from artists at conventions. They have hit Anime North, Montreal ComicCon, Niagara Falls Comic Con, and now TFCON. Likely next cons are CONBRAVO, OTAKUTHON, and FANEXPO. PLEASE REBLOG FOR AWARENESS.
HOW TO PROTECT FROM THEFT:
DO NOT HAVE A CASH BOX. Keep your $ on yourself at all times. Fanny pack, attach it with an extra strap, they have been unclipping fanny packs right from artists wearing them!!
DEPOSIT your $ after each day, do not carry excess with you
If you must have a cashbox, MAKE SURE IT IS ZIPTIED ON AN EXTREMELY SHORT LENGTH IN MULTIPLE PLACES. Do not make it easy for them to grab it!!
DO NOT LEAVE YOUR $ UNATTENDED
– Keep watch for your neighbours! Be on HIGH ALERT at the con!! If you see something, SAY SOMETHING.
Screen-cap is from Peter from Rock, Paper, Cynic, who was robbed at Montreal ComicCon
One of the only weapons artists have in this fight is awareness. Please RT if you can, convention artist or convention attendee. We all need to be watching for our artist community. Too many of us have already been stolen from. THIS HAS GOT TO STOP.
Thinking “like a thief”, they will probably strike near the end of the day? When a lot of sales have already occurred, because what’s the point of stealing a cashbox at the beginning of the day? So be EXTRA watchful at the second half of the day!
If you aren’t in the artist alley, but are just attending the con: KEEP WATCH for these thieves. WE ALL NEED TO DO OUR PART!
listen the ONLY part of a mr mime thats edible are the red spots, and thats ONLY after being properly cooked – if you bite into any part of their body while its still raw youll suffer near immediate food poisoning
luckily, just like red kidney beans, the potential toxins are easily to remove provided you take the right steps
once theyve been safely removed from their inedible surroundings, the larger red spheres are ready to begin working with – its worth noting that the smaller spots on the hands and cheeks also fall into this category, but theyre almost always too small to be considered harvesting by most professionals
youll want to start by cutting away any flesh thats still directly touching the pale parts; when in doubt, a wider cut is always preferred. better safe than sorry ! one benefit of working with mr mimes is that, along with many others in their typing, their bodies are held together with physic energy and thus dont require deboning
the next part is going to require boiling in a large pressure cooker- some may find it a challenge to to find a pot big enough to host all the parts, so cooking them individually is fine. remember to follow the instructions to the letter
after theyve been removed and dried, an easy way to text if theyre safe to eat is to cut them in half and check the spongy center – a darkened purple core means theyve been boiled long enough, while any lighter, greenish tints means you probably needed a bit more time
once theyre out of the danger range, you can now safely use them in variety of dishes ! their almost mushroom-like texture means they absorb flavors well, and pictured above is one of my personal favorites
THIS guy though, you can just pop em into your mouth whole. its fine
