I would be a bear, they look like they have a good time..

Anonymous asked: Can I copy and paste some of these somewhere else to show people how funny your comics are? I'll post a link to the website if you like.

Sure go ahead.

So I posted this on reddit to see if people would love the idea or yell at me(not that there’s anything offensive about it, but you never know… people take offense to the silliest of things.)

Anyway, I plan on making a proper design using the idea, just so I can be one of those cool people with their own adventure time parody TShirt… kinda wish I did the Cosmos time one first though.

For anyone that doesn’t know… this is Flynn(aka Walter JR) from breaking bad, who seems to always be around when breakfast is happening.

Breakfast Time, with Flynn the human boy.

I just found an article written by a concerned mother about her journey to breaking her son up with his addiction with the ‘drug’ that is Minecraft. It was really quite a disgusting article in my opinion, it never provided any kind of explanation of why Minecraft is specifically bad, only vaguely glossing over some poor excuse about older men disguising themselves as young boys so they can play with her son which… is quite an insult to a wonderful community, anyone that has played Minecraft a decent amount knows this isn’t a problem, it may exist somewhere in the Minecraft community but Minecraft certainly isn’t any more prone to it than anywhere else on the internet, if anything… Minecraft houses a community far more friendly, welcoming and protecting than most places out there.

This woman’s issue doesn’t lie with Minecraft, it’s with the general issue of kid’s not knowing how to manage their play time, it could happen with any game, and it does, she should be pleased that her son was ‘addicted’ to a game promoting ingenuity and creativity, rather than something violent or cruel.

I don’t at all have an issue with her wanting to stop her son playing Minecraft, perhaps that IS the only way to solve her son’s problem, and to get him to take part in other activities, which is very important. What I DO have an issue with is with her saying that Minecraft itself is a problem, especially without offering any kind of reason as to why. It’s a problem across the board with technology and games in general, or perhaps even just an issue with her ability to control her son.

This whole thing reminds me of the age old computer game violence provoking real life violent actions issue… which always read to me as parents just looking for somewhere to blame for their kids being dicks.  Unlike this though, at least those articles had a grain of argument on their side.

Hey everyone, so i’ve caught the minecraft bug again and i’ve felt like drawing too so i’m working on a few Creeps comics again! Not sure if anyone cares but yeah… that’s happening.

Hey everyone, so unfortunately, the host that was used for the Creeps minecraft server is shutting down so Ailise has moved the server onto a new host, at the moment you can still get into the old server with the old address and the new server is at ‘mc.ailise.net’.
