Theoretically I was just supposed to list off the numbers.  Except. Very early I started parsing the figures and give my own analysis.  Apparently engineers and geophysicists got a bit freaked out by a ten year old going ‘It’s not that good, the flow’s really slow compared to last week, and there’s gas pockets really screwing up the flow in the east pipe judging by the pressure report.’

Dad still got that yelled at him at conferences: ‘This is the fucker who used child labour to do well analysis!’

‘Was it wrong?’

yeah, this is what sharkskin looks like under a microscope:

it’s covered with tiny interlocking teeth that form a one-way-only surface! petting a shark the wrong way will literally make you bleed, which is still never a thing you want to do if you are in the water with a shark.

TL;DR: unapologetic merch theft. Do not preorder @su-inverted-au​’s anniversary charms. They are stolen from @suaugonewrong​​. 

Let’s jump right into this. 

I was scrolling my dash today and had to pause. It turns out @su-inverted-au​ is making some physical merch to celebrate their AU’s anniversary, which is very cool! The problem is, when I saw the post I didn’t realize it was from Inverted at all. In fact, I had mistakenly assumed it was a pin update from @suaugonewrong​ and did a bit of a double-take when I realized it wasn’t. 

Why? Because I’ve seen this design before, and it was on @spudinacup​’s Patreon back in September of 2020. 

I don’t usually pull this card, but I have a bit of an inside look at Spud’s stuff because we’re family. As such, I know for a fact that Spud COMMISSIONED this design from @jirachibaby​ (Inverted’s creator) last year. In fact, this charm design is directly lifted from one of the concept sketches Spud and Jirachi were working on leading to the final pin design. 

Don’t see the similarities? Let’s flip the design, shall we? 

Jirachi has taken the PAID design created explicitly for Gone Wrong’s merchandise, removed the arm, and is now SELLING their own merchandise in the same market, before Gone Wrong’s enamel pins have even been released. 

In the interest of transparency: We hit a hiccup with repeated manufacturer errors such as using the wrong enamel, which paired with Spud’s cancer-related hiatus has delayed both the comic and the pins. That’s why the general non-Patreon public hasn’t seen them yet. The pins have even been cast in metal already. Jirachi is fully aware of this.

I wouldn’t be making this post at all if Jirachi wasn’t acting in such bad faith right now. There is no misunderstanding. When I brought this issue to Spud’s attention, Jirachi basically laughed in their face (“lmao”) when confronted. There are many receipts, including nasty and derogatory language sent to Spud, but I am not going to post them because they’re from someone else’s personal DMs and while I’m livid right now I’m not going to be that petty unless the truth of this post is called into question.

I am so tired.

I do not like call out culture, I’ve vocalized this many times. I am however going to take this to court if needed, that being said, I do not want people to be ripped off as today is the last day of their Pre-orders. 

Bonus:

Remember this little insignificant painting?

How about this one?

Check this one out:

All of these and more were painted in the asylum when he was receiving treatment for his mental illnesses and I know I just said that but I said it again and I’m saying it a third time until you dramatic abled assholes understand!

VINCENT VAN GOGH

- KNEW THAT HE WAS MENTALLY ILL

- WANTED TO CHANGE THAT

- WENT TO AN ASYLUM

- GOT THE HELP HE NEEDED

- PAINTED SOME ICONIC MASTERPIECES AS A RESULT!

No.

look at me.

The idea of the “suffering artist” comes from bunch of alcholic, drug abusing, womanizers trying to justify their bad life choices as some sort of artistic angst.

IT IS 100% BULLSHIT

Take your meds, get your therapy, be happy, and live life
