Hi, I'm Chu (they/them)!

⭐ Slightly Damned is my award-winning webcomic that I've been updating since 2004: sdamned.com

🐾 I sell cute animal shirts, pins, and other goodies under my RAIZAP label at cons & online: chu.storenvy.com

🐍 Sometimes I post kinky art, but I always tag it as # spicystuff!
Slightly Damned's 20th anniversary poster, featuring many characters and locations from the webcomic's history. RAIZAP by Chu's convention display at Furrydelphia 2023. A variety of colorful t-shirts, lanyards, pins, stickers, and prints are shown. A crop of a piece of artwork featuring snake Rhea, a green and orange serpent. The text reads:
NEW SPICY STUFF!

I'm making another skit animation for my friend's fangame, Tales of Naturia! This time it'll be for Vera the magic-wielding fox 🦊

Yeah, trying to produce that sound keeps tickling my throat and making me cough because I'm not used to it. No pain no gain I guess u_u

Aha... that pronunciation of Merveille makes sense. Thanks for enlightening me!

No joke, TIL I learned how you're actually supposed to say "Le"

Also completely, 100% true: as I was practicing my guttural Rs (and getting a lot closer to being able to say Sucre right, if I do say so myself), my cat Bowser came down from his perch and looked at me as if to say, "Are you alright?"

Mega Raichu X & Y! It was nice of GameFreak to double the population of my favorite Pokémon.

I'm looking forward to Z-A Legends' release this week, are you?

Dynomutt looked REALLY good! I honestly wish he got a lot more screentime. I think this movie was so jam packed with characters that they ones they had didn't have enough time to shine.

Slightly Damned 1004: Ah, so Buwaro's fun "nighttime activity" is reading a bedtime story. Of course.

Page 1004 of the webcomic Slightly Damned. Buwaro: I'm gonna read you a bedtime story!  Remember that book you gave Rhea for your birthday? I borrowed it!   If Rhea likes it, then it must be really good! She doesn't like anything!   WHOA!   So many words... and they're all so teensy... Is this book for Fairies?  And there's hardly any pictures!  Sorry, Snowy. I... I didn't know this book would be so difficult... I don't think I can do this.

I think it’s a lot of fun to try even though I’m definitely botching it XD

I used to not be able to roll my Rs in Spanish or say long phrases in Japanese, so I believe 👏 even if the effort makes me cough the first few hundreds of times lol

I actually haven’t watched much of Jellystone. I started from season one but couldn’t get into it. But you’re not the first person I’ve heard who ended up really loving it. Do you have any particular favorite season or episodes?

I really hate the trend of one word titles. Sometimes it makes sense and can be cool, but other times—like this time—it’s painfully forced.

This movie ain’t great. But you can tell some animators worked really hard to make parts of it look good. During the mediocre parts I had a kind of apathy like, “well, it IS Scooby-Doo”

HOWEVER I hate that marketing named it “Scoob!” and not “Scooby-Doo and the Skulls of Cerberus”!!! WHAT

I always knew that there was a lot of French influence in Japanese culture, but being confronted with having to pronounce all these names is really making me contend with it!

I think being able to identify and kind of pronounce French names even if I don’t know it would be an awesome skill to have
raizap.com
I’ve played a lot of different games in my RPG Sunday streams and the one theme that somehow ties them all together is “learn how to pronounce French names or perish”
raizap.com
Personally I think the highlight of last night’s stream is when I looked up how you’re actually supposed to pronounce “Sucre” and nearly died trying to pronounce the guttural R (it has a Wikipedia page look it up) in French

Language is fun :)

A comic about a community of fuzzy woodland critters who find a human child... and have no idea what it is!

That might be a good idea. While trying to tag page 1003 it reminded me that I did name the pass, so I added that name to a previous page. I’ll have to add it to page 458 soon (about to head out the door as I type this)

I guess I’ll just have to number all the routes like in Pokemon, guaranteeing that in a few years I won’t remember a single one /s

I've been tagging and transcribing old Slightly Damned pages on the website as I repost them under the # readsdamned tag. But now that the story is out of St. Curtis, I'm not sure what to call this liminal setting the comics are currently taking place in (circled in red). Or other locations like it.
A crop of a map of Fragaria from the webcomic Slightly Damned. St. Curtis is in Blossom Valley. Circled in red is a road that runs to the south and goes between mountains (Griffin Pass) until it reaches a crossroad near Hilla Hills (name changed from Hilla Hill, as shown by the green S that doesn't match the rest of the letters).

Yeah I was thinking of something like “St Curtis Outskirts” with the name changed to reflect the last town they visited

Page 1003 of the webcomic Slightly Damned.Buwaro: Snowy, umm... If you're not too tired, would you like to learn more Sign Lingo with me tonight?  Kieri: [in Sign Lingo] No. Buwaro: [in Lingo] Oh... Okay.  Buwaro: I understand if you're still not feeling well.  Buwaro: But don't worry! There's still other ways we can have fun in the dark together!

Omg you just unlocked the memory of my brothers and I using this exact promo cup as our tabo when we were growing up in our parents’ house
Two photos of either side of a 1992 McDonald’s cup made to promote the film Batman Returns. This design features the Penguin riding a giant rubber duckie on one side and a close up portrait of the Penguin on the other.

My earnest wish is that as many friends of mine as possible (and more) are able to spend as much of their time as they want making art. Good or bad doesn’t really matter. There’s just all this capitalism in the way that mucks things up, distracting us with things like “threat of starvation”

FWIW I think that blog post is really well written. I related a lot to the feelings you channeled into those words. They are quite familiar feelings!
