My Bio

Hello,

I make TF2-related stuff.

I make history-related stuff.

I make history-related stuff using TF2 stuff.

I'm not interested in any romantic or sexual artwork. I also don't care too much about memes or sh*tposting so you won't really see much of that (although I might occasionally upload meme-ish pictures or cheap, low effort filler art that borders sh*tpost territory).

I also have a YouTube channel I rather rarely upload on: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrNj-0WBWAZLwyFytjjYeiw

Besides deviantART, YouTube, my Steam-ID and Discord I don't have any other social media using this name. If you see someone somewhere like Twitter, instagram or wherever and they call themselves 'yamakbats', they ain't me.

gone til 10/01/24 got things to do til then

Back then, a meme (or something that became viral) was perceived as an 'update' of sorts. You have become finally famous for whatever thing you've been doing. Nowadays, if something becomes a meme it's been reduced to a cheap joke. Case example: the thousand yard stare painting by Thomas C. Lea. There's always been that cheap element to internet memes but by now this one little aspect has become the very essence of internet memes. Another thing I've been noticing for the last 8 years or so is that everybody on the internet is trying to be funny. Everybody's suddenly a comedian, everybody has to make some stupid (usually edgy, 'dark') joke or something. Either that or it's your stereotypical anxiety/bipolar/whatever-the-hell-kind-of-mental-ilness-is-making-its-rounds-related humor. It's only become worse and worse. The internet has become a permanent 8-grade-classroom and I can't wait to divorce myself from this madness. I'm heading out. No new artwork this month. Not like the majority

Thanks alot for the faves and watches, people! Much appreciated.

Regarding your latest poster... Yes... It is very weird... But that doesn't make it less funny. 😀 (I too am a pankake enthusiast...)
