Forgot to ask this on my live stream, so screw it, I'll ask it here:
Why are you guys following/watching/subscribed to me? It can't just be because I'm funny or because you like my art style. That applies to tons of people. Every artist has their "thing". Emily Youcis' thing is an insane necrophiliac dog, VimHomeless's thing is butts (which is why I'm jealous of him), and Randall Munroe's thing is science and generally being smarter than most people. Those are the things that their audience EXPECTS from them... What do you expect from me?
Ultimately I'm just gonna do what I want, whether that means losing followers or gaining them or whatever. I'm just curious because I haven't been myself for very long, so any audience I gained, I gained by pandering, not by being genuine. I'd like to start being genuine, but first I'd like to know why you're here in the first place.
Thank you to those who answer honestly.

Webcomic, Main Blog, Smut Blog
Haven't been posting on here anymore, and don't really plan to, but I have been posting a lot of art on twitter (http://twitter.com/animatedjames) and tumblr (http://animatedjames.tumblr.com) and I plan on continuing that.
Feel free to ask me anything you want on tumblr (http://animatedjames.tumblr.com/ask).
I also finished a 205 page story arc for my webcomic (http://offsavingtheworld.com).
And if you're into that gross shit (sometimes literally) I made a NSFW smut blog (http://notsafeforworld.tumblr.com)
I understand if there's a loss of patience with me. I deserve it. It feels wrong for me to say that I've changed or improved since tha
Update
I just reached the 80 page mark on Off Saving the World, and I'm a little over a minute done with the upcoming stand up comedian animation, which I might start streaming again. I've been offline for a while, working, but also just worrying too much. I do that all the time, and it's not fun, but part of my anxiety is that the more I feel it, the harder it is to stop it and just have fun, even when I should be having it.
I think back to when I wrote "How to prevent idiocracy". It was a stressful and kinda scary time and I wanted to make people feel better. I still agree with the overall message of it, but at the same time, it's a direction I d
I want to thank you
2017 has been off to a great start. Got to sleep over with close friends for a week while playing video games and watching anime. One of my friends introduced me to One Punch Man, so I am now all about One Punch Man.
So far I've been staying true to my resolution: Staying calm and staying true to self. And sticking with that theme, I want to tell you something...
Thank you. I've wanted to thank you for the longest time. All of you. I wanted Off Saving the World to be that thank you. But that would take a few more weeks to make, and I don't even know if it'll be any good. I have this notion that continuing to create content will show how muc
2017 Part 1: Resolutions
Happy New Year! It was around this time last year that I didn't have the best grasp on reality. I was so caught up in my own personal anxiety that I lost my mind. Not much to say it about that now, except every day, I'm surprised, humbled, and grateful that I still have friends and followers, in spite of thinking I don't deserve either.
Main reason I'm making this journal is to acknowledge that I said OStW would be done around the holidays. I could be smart-alacky and say "I didn't say WHICH holiday" but we all know which holidays I was referring to. It is half way done and can be seen on patreon for $1 a month, but if you can wait, I sugges
