...I think at this point its really clear I need to pursue my happiness elsewhere. I've deleted my discord accounts and going to try something new elsewhere. I wish you all goodluck. And if anyone claims to be me on discord, they are lying.

I will miss you. Alot of you are just too nice, and the world couldn't ask for anything better.

Basement party in Philadelphia during the winter of 2017. Back when DJing was cool.

I get these every once in awhile from work. This one was a bit more personal then most.

I thought I'd make a little in between post here but I got a really awesome shirt from @brwler and just gotta say: I never have felt so comfortable in a shirt like this in a long while. Get one while you can!

So comfy, thx BrawlersWorld!

Also picked up some pins from @MindChamber and I was pleased to see that he over delivered. Appreciate you dude!

I've misplaced Hanzo somewhere in my many boxes so I got another one just in case. ;)

Go to MindChamber's Etsy shop on his page and get one while you can!

Oh boy was last night ever so fun I won't soon forget it!

Last night was the Short Short Festival in Philly at Marty MaGee's, and boy did the NG crew roll on up in our tank to represent our own way: Cartoons, Beer, and Peeing out said beer in the really clean toilets!

Let's get started:

After finally finding a place to park there were a couple of merch tents in the parking lot hockin' merch for @Barnhouse with a couple of game consoles to play on, and a really nice vendor by the name of Cosplay Mutt...

...which had this awesome Steven Universe replicate Van! I also had a bag of really awesome goodies because I was one of the artists that submitted a cartoon to the event, sadly at the start we got rained on real hard and my bag disintegrated. I'll likely post in the supporter forum lounge thread on the stuff I got!

One of the first newgrounders that I got to meet was @GreenGungeGirl (really nice)! She also came away as one of the winners of the raffle for an original piece drawn by Tom Warburton of the Cartoon Network hit series: KND Kids Next Door!

A Storyboard version of "Galactic Kids Next Door" was shown.

@Raviolibox and @NickSenny and the @PukeBomb boys was also there! Ravi also recently did a interview with @Aalastier which you should check out!

Ravi interview here:

PukeBomb Farmin':

"ppfft"

@Toony showed up! He made Rolus and Animated "Who Framed Johnny Utah!"

@tomfulp and @krinkles in attendance as well! Krinkle boy also submitted a madness cartoon!

Hell yeah, Violence!

I have alot more pictures including Tom Fulp being all sweaty, but gosh dang it, I've maxed out my picture limit! Maybe next time! I also was carrying around a portfolio book of story beats for my next short i would like to submit next year and doing elevator pitches for it as well. :P

In summery, This was by far the best NG Meetup I gone to! Lots of fun memories made, new people met, new cartoons from both our group and college and other indie animators-- man if you are local to either areas that @barnhouse does these showcases, I greatly invite you to please follow them and find out when they will be accepting submissions for the next festival.

As for Newgrounders that showed up, named and unnamed: Your presence (and in absentia but have supported Barnhouse) was greatly appreciated and I don't know how to properly thank you. This night from beginning to end was perfect. 5 Stars you beautiful bastards.

I am currently hard at work at something else at the moment, on top of my next cartoon I am meticulously planning. I will have more on that sometime later in august.

See you next time!

You'll never be this happy meeting Tom Fulp holding a pig.

Also pictured in the back Psychogoldfish (head turned), Bleek-creep, Tyler.

The TMG event this year was certainly was quite a turn around for me. After being stuck working on my animation project for so long and being cooped up and depressed, the day finally came I could go out and have some fun!

The day on Friday started with me having to meet and rescue @quent-pro from the philly train station and checked into thier hotel room. Next we both drove over to eat breakfast at the Reading Terminal Market where we linked up with @psychogoldfish @raviolibox @teravex @luis and some other folks who's name escapes at the moment, feel free to message me your name if you were with us!

We also had a nice leisurely walk through downtown and saw some sights:

LOVE Philly statue.

Praise Dobler!!!

Awesome Mural!

Splash-pad (children were playing in these to keep cool)

Iconic Philly Clocktower

We then stopped to cool off and have some cold drinks in the city center:

Then onward later we had a little food at the The Cheesecake factory. Everyone was just too un-energized in the pictures I got so I won't show it! :)

We then eventually got to the meetup! Here is the anticipated video featuring interviews from @ Erasmus? @wayyward @hekdiggity @bleek-creep @beefythunder @elliedoodles343 @rappinawful @kingcrowned @nicksenny @tamag0 @chourios and @pippykins !

Also after the meet I got to wonder the convention abit with @elliedoodles343 :

Not pictured anywhere we all went down to a small bar nearby and it was PACKED, I however did eventually snag a seat at the bar and got to have a nice long conversation with someone I really do consider a true friend. I think @Raviolibox has some pictures of that and I'm sure she'll share them when she gets the time to.

Overall, it was the magical experience that I didn't get to experience at picoday. I'm glad to have met you all again (and some for the first time!). I look forward to our next meet (whenever that will be) but I have the strength now to continue my own projects, and its good to know some folks are looking out for me, and I, them. <3

If I missed something, let me know! I got to get back to real life and this very stupid long script I have to finish writing. Till then, Drink plenty of water!

Hi NewGrounds!

I don't usually post about other's work but I would like to implore the community to support @ekouku 's project "Pieces of Powder.":

"Pieces of Powder is an independently produced animated series. Follow the story of Powder, a teenage girl who deals with a variety of insecurities and anxieties that significantly impact her relationships. When she meets Marcy, a dynamic force that unexpectedly complements her, Powder's high school journey takes a drastic turn. As their bond deepens, Powder finds herself confronted with long-buried issues and struggles she has evaded for far too long, and goes on a journey to learn how to accept everything about herself, the good, and the bad."

Please check it out, as the pilot will be released July 5th!

Here is some art work I did recently of the main character!

Take care out there, and remember: "Every piece matters."
