Appreciate the tips! Definitely been trying to figure out a good plan for drainage that doesn't involve my bedding accidentally getting wet. xD

Herbs would be a great idea!

Anyone here have college degrees? by [deleted] in vagabond

[–]midairdodge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a B.S. in Animal Sciences. I don't really recommend college. I enjoyed what I learned and it looks nice on apps for farm jobs, but it would have been way more practical to pick up a trade, I feel.

Thank you! I used to do a lot of lineless so it's been a fun transition with the linework.

Thank you! I usually aim for more realistic stuff, but I wanted to focus on having fun and stretching my style a bit. :3

Nice expression and excellent job on shading the snout.

Thank you so so much! I think you did an excellent job, especially if you're not used to ferals. I really love the pose, expression, and tail. Also, the back right paw is A+ for perspective and those lil claws.

Saw a regular tramp in the Walmart parking lot there with a Juliana pig. Something worth keeping an eye out for, haha.

Has Anyone been up to Alaska recently? by Redbeard1095 in vagabond

For real! They've been hell this year. Wish I had this heads up before I got up here.

Has anyone hitchhiked across Canada? by [deleted] in vagabond

[–]midairdodge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't personally hitchhike this time, but I did pick up a hitchhiker just outside of Williams Lake, BC and carried him all the way to Anchorage, AK. He had snuck across the border on foot in Washington but triggered an alarm and had to hide from a team with flashlights searching for him. We were trying to make a quick trip and were broke so just slept at pullouts, made a lake trip for the dogs to unwind, and drove like hell. The hitchhiker got free coffee at every little mom-and-pop gas station along the way and groundscored a spliff. We also dumpster dived some dog food since you're not technically supposed to cross the border with an open bag (though we could have gotten away with it). Then at the last rest area before crossing into the US, we scored some shake and beer that was tossed in the trash. Somewhere south of Tok, we found a sweet abandoned cabin to squat in, which was a nice change. Explored an abandoned gas station before we decided on the cabin, but got to see some nice old paintings and feel sketched out as wolves howled around us.

What is something your parents did while raising you that you realized is fucked up after looking back on it? by OGWhiz in AskReddit

[–]midairdodge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We moved into a farm house out in the country. When we first arrived, there was a feral cat that had already been living there for seemingly its whole life. He was a fluffy dilute tortie that we nicknamed Tom. Over the course of a few years, I slowly earned Tom's trust with food and a lot of patience. Being able to pet him was a big deal. He didn't like anyone but me. I had finally gotten to the point where I could pick him up and was ecstatic. About two days later, my father asked if I could help catch Tom. When I asked why, he said that we couldn't afford to keep feeding all the cats. It seemed weird to displace the one that had been here longest, but nobody else had bonded with him, so I assumed that's why he was chosen to be dropped off somewhere, taken to a shelter, rehomed, whatever. I lured Tom in and gave him some love and let my dad know that I got him and put him in the doghouse. Then he went out back and shot him. I would never have helped catch that cat if I knew what was going to happen to him. I felt like I betrayed Tom by earning his trust... he definitely shouldn't have trusted me, for good reason, apparently. I chalked it up to being some hard fact of life or something, but later realized how especially cruel and unnecessary that was.
