Also, how far are you extending this rule of two times a week? I know I'd try to find a loophole lmao
Well, I did only open the tab twice! What do you mean it doesn't count if I left a tab open and fully visible for 3.5 days???
42 hours and counting... No sign of @TheLemmaLlama 
Whew, new week at last! Was pretty tough ngl ... but it's no fun unless there was some chance of failure 
Aw, I'm touched ^_^
I would count a session as 'finished' when I've exhausted all the new threads and comments that I took an interest in that popped up since I was last here :] (I'm also technically homeless, so fortunately, it would be a huge inconvenience for me to leave my laptop open for 3.5 days to the point where I'd rather just draw a very difficult picture :P)
Why thank you! Any amount of support is appreciated

Whew, made it 4 weeks! I guess this hasn't been very exciting for you guys, but trust me, it's been helping me a lot XD
To amp up the challenge, I also vow to check the comicfury forums twice a week, and also check my social medias* at most once a day unless someone I know IRL is using it to contact me to make plans. If I slip on any of these, I must post here and tell you.
*UPDATE 20/08/2023: To be specific, check (the site formerly known as) Twitter and Mastodon no more than once a week (since I've recently been addicted to some stuff on there), and check Facebook no more than once a day (since people I know IRL are on there and I'm not particularly addicted to anything there but still get caught in a refresh spam loop when procrastinating anyway).
The exception is clicking an external link doesn't count as 'checking' as long as I stick to the page/thread I landed on (without venturing off into my notifications/follows/etc), and I can check Facebook if I'm expecting a message from someone I know IRL.

Alright, just a bump because this thread has been doing wonders for ... well, not my productivity - it's a bit more complicated than that:
I guess I have been drawing a teensy bit more since I started this commitment, but mostly I've been reading/watching more stuff instead - which I still consider an improvement over refreshing my browser a bunch of times for no reward XD
Especially since one of the things I've been reading more of is comics; I've finally made my way through my backlog of stuff I've been meaning to read! So if I'm still subbed to you, it means you pass my test XD
Uhhh what else ... I feel like I've been less salty on the internet since making this commitment. I swear I've mentioned this in another comment, but I can't link it here because I can't find it anymore and my lazy ass can't be bothered to retype everything I wrote there :'D
But yeah, it's been good. Future bumps might not be as interesting as this one, and I apologise in advance if they clog up the forums 
(Pray that one day I slip up? XD)
seeing your series of comments popping up on the forum is almost like a time keep for me now lol. Like, "Oh, a week has passed already?"

(Obsolete as of 03/10/2023)Aight, these bumps are getting hella boring so let's up the ante; starting from the next bump, every time I bump this thread, I must also post a finished drawing that I started since I last bumped the thread. This will probably be totally fine and not result in a snowballing accumulation of drawings I have to do in the event that I fail to keep this up :P

Love it! Was hard not to respond xD nice perspective and the sun glare above is a great touch 
XD Guess my cheese attempt to help on your drawing snowballing journey is help finish the word:

(P.s. as the DMs notifications seem to not b not workin proper, check the promo DM thread whenever you get a chance)

Bump, and pic (this and the last pic were both for this board game2)(it was rushed for a competition and probably terribly unbalanced so don't buy it lmao :'D):

Well, I might be going too far here, but I've been procrastinating too much. This will be my external motivator
So, without further ado, here is my Artistic License:
Yeah, this is not like me at all, but I'm feeling extremely risky (Zoloft, lol!). Maybe a 90 day temporary ban from the forums will motivate me into getting more of my comic done. Time for regrets is later.
I wish you all well, whatever happens next! (And hopefully I'll see all you fuckers in October!
(Feel free to copy this license and use it however way you like! I don't give a shit! XD)

Posting this animation again bc it's the only thing I did since my last bump:
Anyway, I'm going to retire my 'one picture per bump' thing as I really need to work on my thesis, which is due July next year 
Instead, I'm going to use this thread to hold me accountable for actually making progress on my research! (I'll post what I've done here, even if no-one finds it interesting or comprehensible, just bc it helps with accountability XD)(I will probably return to some manner of art/comic progress accountability once I'm done with my degree, one way or another)
Each week, I must come up with concrete (showable, written down) goals for the following week. If I either fail to meet my objective OR fail to come up with a concrete objective for the following week, I must tell you and give one free drawing to the first person to respond :]
So by next Tuesday, I must:
- Formalize the full theory of partially saturated anabicategories, as an essentially algebraic theory
- Write something about how pushouts might look like in the category of models of the above structure and strict model maps between them
- Write something about where to assign which 2-cells get mapped to by the composition and identity anafunctors
Alright, I don't think I can meet the above by the end of today*, so Imma offer one drawing to the first person to make a request after this comment. (Any following requests will be disregarded; you'll have to repost the next time I screw up, so I suggest not posting if you see someone has already posted :])
You can request anything that I'm allowed to post on this forum. It will be coloured and roughly shaded, but messy.
Drawing a cute black cat in white bunny onesie for @DasIstWunderblyat :]
*In part because I bumped into something that I believe made the first goal impossible, and the second goal is also technically impossible without completing the first goal. In future I will specify my goals more clearly to allow for success despite unexpected roadblocks XD (I don't think I would've completed all of these even without the roadblock though; I did procrastinate quite a bit XD Which just means this plan is working, as it got me to actually push myself :P)
By next Tuesday, I must:
- See if one can get uniqueness of the saturation property from the other stuff, OR explore the implications of non-uniqueness. Write something about whether this causes any issues.
- Write at least one other thing related to my topic, but doesn't contribute to the above.
