So, some good news is that I called my bank account. They said that my credit card will be changed, and my money will be refunded. So it’ll be like the scammer didn't take anything. Bad news is that my discord account hasn’t been fixed yet. So, in the meantime, I’ll still use the temporary account (named ZenonTempo), so just put my old account on ignore for now. Hope everybody’s safe out there. (Update, old account is too far gone. Block and report it immediately. And warn your friends.)

Last night, I got a call from what I thought was a friend on discord. They said that they needed money to verify my account, but they needed exuberant amounts of money. But then this morning, I found RealPumpkinLord got compromised, who was the guy I thought was in trouble. Now my old discord account has been compromised, and my bank account with it. If anybody can see this, do not accept this message, or anything similar. (Update, I made a new account called zenontempo. Don't block that.)

I got caught off guard when I saw this, but @Yosos’s picture of Kelly got on the front page. I mean, it’s not too surprising, given how good their pixel art is. But I didn’t think commissions could get on the front page like that. I can’t be more proud of Yosos for being able to get this far (especially since their channel is so small). Congratulations Yosos, you’ve earned it.

So, remember last week when I got sad because Mama was gone for good? Well, last night I heard a noise from my front door, and it turned out to be Mama scratching it. Which means the dead cat I saw must’ve been a different black cat I owned (still sad, but not as sad).

One the one hand, I feel happy that she’s back. On the other, I feel so stupid for not knowing better. But then again, the fact that I mourned over her potential loss means I loved her so much. And maybe I did have emotional baggage I needed to drop, but didn’t know how. (Do you think I should get rid of the previous news post about her, or keep it up as a reminder?)

I’m not a dad, but congrats to all those that are today, including my brother. Sorry that I don’t have much else to say right now…

I’m sorry that I haven’t been feeling like myself lately. It’s just that I lost one of my cats last week. Her name was Mama, and she was my friend for 10 years. I know she was cranky in her later years, but she always liked to curl up on my couch, and comfort me when I was lonely. And now she’s gone. Rest in Peace, Mama. I hope you find your way back home again.

You ever get that feeling where you wanna draw something, but don’t have any good ideas? That’s what I’m feeling today. Like, I wanna draw to keep myself active, but I can’t think of any good ideas. Almost makes me wonder if I need to take the week off to get my priorities straight. Maybe I should take a trip to the OC Plaza, or join another collab, until I know what I really wanna do. What do you think?

(To make up for it, I turned Keisha into a literal art block)

Well, I got one of those new Switch 2s that came out. Lemme do a quick rundown of how it went yesterday. First, I went to GameStop around 2:30, and this is what the line looked like. I was in line for 2 1/2 hours, and most of that was because everybody was trading in stuff that day.

Then when I got there, they gave me a ticket for as proof of purchase. That way I could come back and pick it up when they were ready at 10:00. And so I did, with the Mario Kart Bundle (which I didn’t think I’d get, but they had more of those than regular ones). They had a release party, but I was too tired to go to the whole thing.

And now that I have it, I can say it was worth the trouble. Feels good, runs even better, and is just the upgrade that the Switch needed. I hope you can get your own sometime soon, but you better manage your mortgage first.

Happy Pride Month, to all my queer peers out there. I myself don’t have any flags, but I respect those that do. A few of my friends might even have them, and I don’t know it yet (I know you have one, ruru). Also, I don’t think I've made many character who are queer much. Except for maybe Phil, who (being a flower) has both male and female parts, which makes him non-binary by default. Do you think I should go back and make another OC have a pride flag, make a new one, or leave good enough alone?

(Also, minor edit. I gave Phil non-binary colors to reflect his status.)

[Second edit. I made Phil into Potted Pride just now. Take a look for yourself.]

Good Memorial Monday, everybody. The day we honor our veterans who died during countless wars, and deal with the kids that get off from school. Every year, I visit my grandpa in the graveyard, since he was a veteran himself. Do you have any relatives who serve(d) in the force?

Another tidbit about Memorial Day is that, one year ago, I posted the first pic here on Newgrounds. It was for the Road Runner, because of the #ReleaseCoyoteVsAcme movement at the time. It’s nice to know that the movie’s in the hands of people that care, for now at least.
