I felt uneasy when I read the news today. Is filtering really the right way? I doubt it. No one knows exactly what consequences this brings, and I’m not having a good feeling about it, sadly :/

Anonymous asked: you don't need to draw it but thanks to that anon I now just have this mental image of Gladstone ending up getting piggy backs whenever it's raining bc *insert adult duckverse character here* doesn't want to get wet and he's too small for them to shelter under an arm like that and they know he doesn't mind so it's like a double luck win for him bc rain + free ride (+platonic physical interaction 'cause the boy is touch starved af???)
I know I didn’t had to but I felt like doing some quick and simple doodles at least. Decided to use Scrooge because I needed to draw him and Glad together at least once. Yikes, these whole ducks+rain stuffs are getting out of control agsdfhg. Also… you said he was touch starved? Because oh gosh, be sure I am. I’m that kind of person who needs a lot of hugs but I hardly ever get them.
now see I have to put my hands up and confess I was the anon because THIS IS WONDERFUL AND SORRY FOR MAKING YOU DRAW EVEN MORE GOOD STUFF but I’m also not sorry at all
also dude if we ever meet up I am gonna hug you. so much.
So, some rather disappointing news; the publishing company i was going to collab with for the Volume 2 of TPoH has had to bail for reasons inside the company- not their fault, just horrible bad luck, as if I’d known this earlier this year I could have had a shot at getting my application in to Hiveworks. Which I really wanted to do but didn’t because I’d signed a contract. Bugger.
Basically it looks like Vol 2 is not going to happen any time soon, I’m really sorry guys this is as devastating for my finances as I’m sure it is for your emotions.
sneak peak at RGB’s next outfit to make up for the fact that I am too tired to do anything tonight blaaarghhhh (also sorry I haven’t been able to give my inbox a look through I’ll try to get on that when I’ve had a rest)
I suppose it might be kind of a spoiler but not exactly I mean it’s only going to be another thirteen hundred pages before you see it anyway… or less than that… maybe ;D
So, to all of you who follow me and who are not from Brazil, you should read this, and please reblog, if you can.
These are some photos of what is happening to our country today. São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro are facing protest all over the cities. To fight for their rights. Our country is living a hidden dictatorship. The protests started because the bus fee raised 20 brazilian cents. Which doesn’t seem that much, but you all should know that millions of brazilians live with a monthly income of no more than 700 brazilian reais (something like 350 american dollars). Some people live and raise families with that money. Monthly. To these people, $0,20 for each bus means a lot.
But the thing is: what initially was intended to be a protest against the bus fee turned into a protest against the dictatorial government. A government that every year, steals millions of dollars of their people, in their own benefit. A government so corrupt, the population got used to it, and make jokes about it. In this country, a school teacher has a yearly income of $8400. The governors, on the other side, earn, for the same time, about $300.000. To work less. And they don’t even show up to work. And besides that salary, they steal.
And now, people are going to the streets. And the response is photographed. The government is brutally attacking everyone. I mean everyone. Protesters, pedestrians, reporters, photographers. Everyone. For no reason. They just attack. And bomb. And hurt.
The media is absolutely corrupted. The brazilian media makes it look like a violent act, that has to be fought with equal violence. That is a lie. 15 thousand people are going to the streets of Sao Paulo with no guns, no fire, no weapons. And they are being hurt, persecuted, and arrested. Some of them have to pay bail fees up to $20.000.
If you came all the way down here, please, reblog this. Help making the world know what is really going on here. This country, this beautiful country, with beautiful beaches, and women, and music, is now screaming in protest. This is the country in which the World Cup will be in 2014. A country that worries about the World Cup much more than it worries about the welfare of its citizens.
