Episode 159 - Tri-Cotton Blends
/This week we've lost a lot of people that meant a lot to us: René Auberjonois, Carroll Spinney, and Ron Liebman. From Star Trek, to Sesame Street, to Rhinestone, let us remember these fine actors in the way that only HWIDG can. So, get mad. Get furious, my friends that the universe has taken three more powerful souls to fill it's engines. But while you do, remember that there are plenty of things still here that you can get mad at, like:
* Clothes Material Importance
* Feeling Inadequate
* Suddenly Bad Art
* Adopting Mobile Game Currencies
From silk made of whispers to itchy, curly wool, clothes are made of a random assortment of materials. But one man's cotton is another man's polyester, so who are we to believe? What we need is a new standard of measuring the fit and feel of clothes so that you're not bamboozled by a shirt that shows the outline of your areola or one that feels like you're wearing kevlar.
It's human to compare, but with social media these days, it's quite easy to curate your perceived life to be the absolute best. So don't fret when you're stuck cleaning toilets and your buddy Rick from high school is on his 3rd trip to Aruba this year. Because what he's not showing you is that his 2 kids are satan incarnate and he's doing kilos of coke on "buisness trips" just to feel *something* and he's cheating on his smoking hot blonde wife with every hotel maid he can just on the chance he can give his wife all the VD she can handle because she's bleeding their bank account dry.
Ah, the American comic book industry. Is there anything better than monthly deadlines and corporate-mandated story guidelines to really make your art as best as it can be? Well tough titties Art McGee, dozens of people get it done without tracing 3D models, so don't you dare start or Marvel will give you a 5 year contract, because let's be honest, the comic nerds don't care about the art of it all unless you draw Spider-Woman's scoliosis twins just a hair too small.
