Nice. That's a keeper. <3

This has been working for me, so here it is:

  1. When you’re ready to fall asleep, pick a five to seven letter word (it can be longer if you can keep track of the letters). (e.g. - “Candle”)

  2. For each letter, pick an animal. (e.g. - “C is for Cat”)

  3. To the best of your ability, try and picture that animal in as much detail as you think is appropriate. (e.g. - “It’s seated but not laying down. It has cinnamon-colored fur, short. Its nose is pink, etc.”

  4. Move on to the next letter and do steps 2 & 3 for each letter.

  5. If you finish a word, pick another word, and repeat the same process.

Apparently this mimics the random-ish thought pattern that precedes sleep, and supposedly signals to your brain that the environment is safe enough to sleep.

I forget where I picked this up. This was just one of those things where you go, “Oh - that sounds interesting. I’ll guess I’ll give it a shot if I happen to remember it when I’m trying to fall asleep.” It wasn’t something that I ever really expected to work for me.

But we can say shit on the internet, and the world is pretty terrible.

I don’t think it’d be confusing if they either never show his face, or only show his face as heavily disfigured.

I did worry about his voice though, as RDJ has a pretty distinct accent and way of speaking, but then I reasoned that he’s a good enough actor to put on an accent, and that Latveria, being a fictional country, could justify a strange accent and mask his speech, no pun intended.

Found a couple more, and thanks to those that contributed. RIP to Kabosu; she was indeed a good girl.

A link to the previous one if you missed it or just want another look.

Is this a joke riffing on the fact that May 9th is Go(5) Ku(9) day?

Good Boy comics (sh.itjust.works)

I like to collect what I call "Good Boy" comics. Anybody know of any that aren't already in here? The comics should include the phrase "good boy" or at least allude to the idea.

Thanks in advance if you find something to contribute, but if not, I hope you enjoy this little collection! :)

“Cel” stands for celluloid, which was used and painted on for classic animation (which popularized the simple flat color painting style that you see imitated in modern cel-shading).

She should really be using a dry kitchen towel to grip that wok, if she were serious about achieving proper wok hei.

Yeah - I'm currently playing solo so I can progress at my own pace.

*Googled "smoltog" and "photography" and found Isabel Malia, an NYC photographer with multiple social media accounts under the name "smoltog". Not 100% sure if this is the correct artist, but this is my best guess for now. Please let me know if you either know or discover otherwise. :)
