  • I wouldn’t. I’d just move somewhere else.

    Why? Because whatever I do to attempt to stop the transition will be much less effective on obtaining quality of life improvements for myself and my loved ones than moving somewhere else. And that’s not even going into the risks of attempting to get between a potential dictator and their power.

    Votes are individually irrelevant. Protests are ignored, even if massive. Opinions and relevant facts to change opinions are lost in a sea of extremely well funded narrative-affirming propaganda. Civil disobedience will get you nothing but legal trouble. Strikes are broken.

    Let’s be real. There is nothing that can be done, realistically, as an individual without an extraordinary amount of political capital, money or military influence.

    Anything short of a huge chunk of the armed forces organizing an armed coup is completely irrelevant.

    The only realistic solution is jumping ship.





  • Of Course!

    I used paint.net to make the brain slug I used in higher quality. (This is the original image i based on, from Monster Moviepedia).

    I later animated everything using Adobe Animate which apparently is really a shitty software to use nowadays for animation (it’s based on flash), but i already had the adobe suite and didn’t want to shell out for something better, especially since I’m just starting to learn. I did hear good things about Toon Boom Harmony 24 when I was looking up what to use, though, but it’s also paid. Either way, Adobe Animate has a great wire frame/skeleton system, despite being very resource heavy.

    If you’re interested in more alternatives for animation software, you might find this post interesting, although you’ll have to visit that gross website that shall not be named to read it.
