Anime Faces A to Z: 'F' is for Frieren!
Really happy with this one, I don't know if it's because I took an involuntary break from illustration, or because we were discussing it on stream, but I felt I was really able to let go and embrace the imperfections making inking much less stressful. The textured pen was also a joy to use, will definitely come back to that one. :)

As a young #gorilla, #Titus suffered more tragedy than most #humans do in their lifetimes. A #study found, just like a human #child, he thrived due to good social and economic supports.

“The study followed about 700 women from pregnancy to midlife, and those who resided in a highly disadvantaged neighborhood within 10 years of perimenopause experienced early natural onset menopause, with socioeconomic status and household characteristics having the largest effect on long-term trajectories.
Earlier menopause is linked to higher risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, and mortality, with odds increasing about 2% to 3% with a 1-year decrease in menopause age. The lack of access to social and economic resources that may contribute to early menopause requires intervention to address related health outcomes, the authors stated.”

Soft switching fell out of favour after this period, too, because it could cause "tone suck". That's a real description; basically, guitarists complained that when their guitar was routed through the pedal to their amplifier, but the effect was disabled via soft switching, it would sound worse - its tone would #suck - than when they plugged their instrument directly into the amplifier.
With well-designed and manufactured effects circuits, and with reasonable #electronics in the guitar and the #amplifier, this shouldn't be much of an issue, if at all. But there were (and are!) lots of badly-designed or badly-manufactured effects pedals out there, and plenty of guitars and amplifiers with stupidly-designed electronics. So it's entirely possible for tone suck to be a real thing - but as with anything audio-related, you would need a double-blind #study to determine how much of the effect was real, and how much of it was purely #psychological.
So effects generally went back to "true bypass", with physical "stomp switches".
There is a bunch of stuff in the schematic that exists only to implement the soft switching. We can strip all of that out, too.
And if you remove both of those sections, you get this.
