interesting that i was just being nostalgic about webcomics for the last couple hours and apparently everybody else has been doing the same thing today.

Is Awkward Zombie the only "good" webcomic left?


my favorite was always Octopus Pie, which ended a while back.
Meredith Gran is making a point and click adventure game now apparently, which I didn't even know about.

I don't know if you're lamenting that everything has turned to shit or that things have ended, but I think it's impossible for webcomics to stay good for years and years on end. So I'm glad when artists do know when to stop.

I'll be waiting until it's done airing and watching it in one go. Unless people say it's trash by the time it ends too.
I hope it goes decently, though. I know FLCL is well-known by our gen but I'd love to see teenagers nowadays get into it cause they liked the new one. 
It's the most powerful when you're around that age, after all.

my friend stopped going to the gym in favor of just working out at home but that means i don't go to the gym either and i'm like, itching to do SOMETHING physical again but body weight exercises are so unappealing and hard to start :[

i think bodyweight exercises are godlike but like with any strength building you gotta make sure you're solid on your form and know where to start.
try giving https://startbodyweight.com/ a try if you're interested. it's a public no-nonsense plan that has loads of progressions so that you can start with what's comfortable for your strength level for every single exercise.
the site has more info, but basically you start with 3 sets of 4 reps on the hardest exercise you can do 4 reps of without any cheating your form, and you add a single rep per day, on every exercise. (4-4-4 -> 5-4-4, 5-5-4, etc) until you hit 3x8, then move up. do it and stretch after 3x a week and you will make very steady, measurable progress, up to stuff you couldn't imagine yourself doing beforehand. here's the chart of them: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2oknZg-EI8xZFVkemhWMWlkVDg/edit
there are videos and such for form tips (really important to be hyper aware of form even if you already know what you're doing). if you don't, i can answer any specific questions about certain exercises.
http://youtube.com/scooby1961 is also a great old-school channel for humble, honest fitness advice.

thank you my dude!! the most intimidating part of working out in any fashion is literally just having no idea where to start or what to start with, so this is very helpful info flower;

Nice! :) 

Yea it is, phone seems to be running a bit better. It's more than earned it lol. It's main storage is only 8gb. Only issue is when anything needs to upgrade it'll move back... to do so. So I still can't upgrade anything else. Kind of defeats the purpose, but at least I can move things over to the sd card again afterwards.
