So, to all of you who follow me and who are not from Brazil, you should read this, and please reblog, if you can.
These are some photos of what is happening to our country today. São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro are facing protest all over the cities. To fight for their rights. Our country is living a hidden dictatorship. The protests started because the bus fee raised 20 brazilian cents. Which doesn’t seem that much, but you all should know that millions of brazilians live with a monthly income of no more than 700 brazilian reais (something like 350 american dollars). Some people live and raise families with that money. Monthly. To these people, $0,20 for each bus means a lot.
But the thing is: what initially was intended to be a protest against the bus fee turned into a protest against the dictatorial government. A government that every year, steals millions of dollars of their people, in their own benefit. A government so corrupt, the population got used to it, and make jokes about it. In this country, a school teacher has a yearly income of $8400. The governors, on the other side, earn, for the same time, about $300.000. To work less. And they don’t even show up to work. And besides that salary, they steal.
And now, people are going to the streets. And the response is photographed. The government is brutally attacking everyone. I mean everyone. Protesters, pedestrians, reporters, photographers. Everyone. For no reason. They just attack. And bomb. And hurt.
The media is absolutely corrupted. The brazilian media makes it look like a violent act, that has to be fought with equal violence. That is a lie. 15 thousand people are going to the streets of Sao Paulo with no guns, no fire, no weapons. And they are being hurt, persecuted, and arrested. Some of them have to pay bail fees up to $20.000.
If you came all the way down here, please, reblog this. Help making the world know what is really going on here. This country, this beautiful country, with beautiful beaches, and women, and music, is now screaming in protest. This is the country in which the World Cup will be in 2014. A country that worries about the World Cup much more than it worries about the welfare of its citizens.
It’s sad being here. But we’re fighting.
Ass Ass, Ass Ass Ass
Back in the day its like Ass Ass Ass
I know what it takes to make things twerk
And I know what takes to some silly in a verse
This is my nephew playing the latest version of Foxhole. He’s been at my side providing ideas and giving input as I add things. I also have him playtest so I can get a better idea of how someone new to the game might react to certain mechanics. He says he likes the variety of guns and how “it’s like Mario or Sonic but it does its own thing and is different.” Also “She looks like a chihuahua, not a fox.”
I have two days off. This should be enough time to finish up the extra content for the next alpha release. Then, you too can marvel at Zuka’s dissimilarity to a fox.
Holy cow, Jaws III was a truly dreadful movie but I love this Poster!
Is the plot of the movie that the shark comes out of the screen and tries to eat people? That might be worth doing. I imagine Inspector Gadget’s dog saves the day.
Happy Fathers day to all the dads out there!
Even though my parents were divorced, my dad still did everything he could to still be a part of our lives, which isn’t always the case for a divorced dad… So from picking us up every other weekend to the summer trip to disney, my dad has been there for us. He never doubted me in perusing my passion in art and pushed me forward in doing so for all these years

Silly extra info, Afrocat is my dads most favorite character that I have ever made. He’s always asking me to draw him for him and I am a terrible daughter who always forgets… until now.
So which one are you, Jelly?
