Stealth Main Character

Someone asked me if this site had like a main character or something. The answer is obviously no, but if we did he would be a silver fowl with fiery eyes and some distinct accessories, like a hat and scarf. Definitely not some bird in a box.

NOTE(Feb 2018): Stealth Ace is the wrong color in this piece. He is supposed to be silver also.

So Called Scholar

Greetings my compatriots. I must apologize for the lack of activity. I have been buy with some IRL matters, but that's hardly an excuse for more than a weeks activity. Anyways I have several things to post to make up for it. Let's begin with this so called scholar. These books are clearly blank!

Book Distraction

Usually when I take a break of any notable length it's because I got distracted by something on the internet, or started playing some video game. From time to time my body just feels it needs a day or two of resting and I don't do anything at all.

This time I was reading a book. Barely touched my computer. I might have posted something based on the book but it's a rather obscure fantasy novel so I'm not sure. If I have an interesting idea for a picture I probably will.

Also this one is using a desk so you know he hasn't skewered the book with his beak.

Book

BOOK, a book for all ages
I've been thinking and I like real books a lot more than those little e-Readers and the like. I've mostly been thinking it while watching things like those Kindle commercials where the fan of physical books makes a really stupid point like "Actually folding the page," which I would like to point out would make absolutely anyone who collects physical books(And I'm using a very loose meaning of collects) cringe. Folding a page is just damaging the book, and for a really dumb reason. You couldn't just use a nice sensible book mark. Could have at least gone with "Actually turning the page."

Anyways. I like my book shelf. It has so many books and I can just see them and be all giddy remembering them. The same is true of most things available digitally. If I'm buying something I want a physical... thing. I admit that I have a rather large collection of Steam games, but the fact that I don't always follow it doesn't make it less true.

And I like the physical weight of a book. Which I can totally see the other side's argument against. Carrying it is inconvenient, but I still like the weight.

This isn't some major eReaders suck sorta rant. Just a personal preference.

On the note of books I somehow lost the first book in a series off my shelf. I have no idea how I managed to do that. I'm certain nobody borrowed it. Perhaps it fell off, but then you'd think it was right next to the shelf...
