https://neocities.org/

There's this site that seems cool. We can make our own website with it.


It seem that neocities is an independant sites that isn't controlled by some giant corpo (like Newgrounds love you Newgrounds) and that let users actually deciding of the content in the site (and not based on an algorithm designed to boost engagement)


Some people in here have made a neocities site too!


Should I do it? It seems fun ┌( ಠ‿ಠ )┘


Edit : I opened my neocities account, but Soustar is already taken??? Nooooooo

Guess i'll call myself soustarng. Because Newgrounds.

4-If I don't want to, I don't.

Salut!! J'ai fait un club FR pour que (le peu de) francophones sur Newgrounds puissent enfin discuter!


C'est l'occasion aussi d'en apprendre plus sur Newgrounds, en français, et de rencontrer de nouveaux artistes francophones !


Voila le cluuuuuuub!!! ٭(•﹏•)٭

Funny thing happened last night : I was so tired I wanted to sleep early, but I still didn't drew today's Routine!

So my plan was to take a nap, getting the energy to draw Routine and going to sleep...


So I took the nap, drew today's Routine :



But... I wasn't tired anymore... The nap was too powerful!!!!(;° ロ°)


So I sat and made some character design :3

I took all the photos! Here are they!


Thank you all!!!

Okay, after the 1-2 week pause I took, it's time to retake the work! :D


I'm continuing to make the Routine comic pages! (While listening to city pop hehe)

Here's all the pages! :

(work in progress!)

I have a question too : To what decade does my art make you think about? I often try to emulate the 90's and sometimes the 2000's feels, with the retro boxy sedans, and technology. Even though I was born in the 2000's! I haven't got to experience the cool years!!! ( ゚Д゚)


Thank you all for your support too! Y'all are so cool!!!!!

Just wanted to say that, with the two last new posts I did.


I finally thought about all of it. I just sat and thought.


And I'm feeling better. I have personally written a text a bit long in my notes, about the relation between Justice, Logic and Feelings, and it gave me ideas.


I will finish the Routine comic strip I said I'm doing, then I'll work on the idea I had.


Thank you all for your support.

I read your comments and I know I'm not alone. Nobody is truly alone. We just have to seek for what we lack, whatever it's attention, help or support. But obviously, it is bad to rely only on them. I have to make my own efforts, and I did.


Thank you all again!!! :3

If you're bad, then be good.

If you're not enough, then be all of it.

If you're nothing, then be yourself.

If you're weak, then be strong.


You have the choice to become.

You're free to have choice.

( Please don't read it if you don't want to see negativity. It's a "vent art". I'll be only express hate, hate and more hate.)


(I might not make ANY sense in it.)


iu_1301992_23563917.webp


I know these feelings aren't new, but for me, they are.


I hate these GAFAM.

I hate how they will do everything to control you, and profit for it.


They open "free speech" spaces, but they're just echo chambers. They give a place to vulnerable people, so their harming thoughts will get reinforced. And so these same people will seek out help from these same spaces that reinforce their thoughts.


They have the right to take your content. Your coordinates. What you want, what you feel, who you are.


They show themselves as some kind of messiah, who will help you get your tasks done, who will manage your interactions, and will even create and think at your place.


My #1 fav artist works are getting stolen.


Sometimes, I look at my art, and think, "it look like AI." I know it doesn't. It is AI that copy us.




Last summer, I used AI out of desperation for my hobby writing. I deeply regretted it.


Before, I used Reddit, Pinterest. And I felt "good".


How come I didn't felt this way before?

Because they simply took this feeling from me. It's easy. We are flawed.


Who would have thought that flaws were so profitable?


You feel bad about what you do? Let us do it at your place.

You feel bad about what you have done, or something that happened to you? Let us comfort you.

You feel? Let us doing it at your place.


Here, it is not your fault that people don't like you. Here's other people who feel the same way. Aren't you happy? You're vulnerable, so here's other vulnerable people! Wonderful!


They use our love, our hate, our fear.

Our love for ourselves.

Our human, innate capacity to hate.

Our fear. Our insecurities. Our own vision of ourselves.

They profit from our love, our hate, our fear.


They're using it.

And we have to take it back from them.




But it's only a vent. It would be so simple to just get a gun and pew-pew these demons.

So simple to just burn it all from the ground.


But it's only a vent. I can only "just stop using them".


And I can only express my feelings. Because our words don't matter. Because it's their "right".


If you have read all of this, thank you.

And for those who haven't, thank you too. Because you are not engaging in something you hate for validation. And it exactly what these demons want.


Thank you.
