So....Rex and I had a chat about the future of this page. He sat there cross armed and scratching his chin while I pretty much do all the work (as usual).
This is how it will move forward from November 2020.
The unfortunate reality of this pandemic is the fact cross border travel and large scale events are still severely curtailed, and likely until the effects of the virus on society dies down, or an effective vaccine can be developed (that's another discussion in itself). We've known since April we would not be able to go to any conventions and therefore we've delayed the production of Rex Regrets Volume 3. We're mostly self funded/run and our day job was (and still is) impacted by the poor economy. I won't say how bad, lol, but we can't possibly set aside money now to make a product that has no place to sell to. We could do online, but that still depends on a lot of factors that....to be fair, feels like a lot of work for a 1 man 1 dinosaur shop. And Rex is useless at packing. Having said that, it also means most merch plans will be on hold too. In fact we're aware the problems with the T-Shirts that were sent out with the Kickstarter (from 2 years ago now) and we'll be looking into new suppliers before we start doing anything again.
We've also been pretty laid back with new comics. Honestly its been 7 years of Rex and its starting to feel a lot like work. I hate work.
Rex and I have gone on an extended break and recently we both feel we're ready to be back. After the passing of our good friend and supporter Matthew, and more recently re-hearing about TOYSREVIL's brush with stroke 10 years ago, we feel that to abruptly sign off at Volume 3 is doing a disservice to the friendships we've forged with Rex. So we're gonna try and return to the normal schedule in November and we'll try to keep to the schedule.
Folks who've been following on here will also notice since May we've been running this live drawing stream CB draws. It is a partnership between A Good Citizen, Muffinsaurs and us. We feel its time to move it onto its own platform since Citizen Dan and Muffinsaurs both are gonna likely start ramping it up again on their end too. So if you've been a fan of CB draws, its not going away, just headed to a different page. We hope you'll follow us there, but do be warned, the content can be a bit crass (blame Citizen Dan) and focused on Singaporean/Southeast Asian perspectives.
With that being said, Rex and I will also start a new dinosaur drawing stream in November. Since we have no idea what we're doing (as usual) we will start small and work our confidence up.
All in all, thank you guys for continuing to support Rex. We're a bit rusty. Rex will need to do his stretches again to contort himself into those compromising situations. Hopefully you'll find the upcoming content still fresh and fun.
PS, he's still sitting there thinking.

An appalling and sad story this week ... Salute to the firefighters!
News of the Week: 15/8/2015
Calamitous explosion wrecked Tianjin
Tianjin, a city whose population doubles Hong Kong’s, was devastated by a massive explosion on 12 August. As of the date of this report, the official death toll has reached 50, including 17 fearless firefighters, while hundreds of people have been reported to sustain injuries.
The destructive explosion was believed to be caused by toxic chemicals. This means that apart from the immediate ravages of the explosion, the highly toxic chemicals pose health risks which should not be overlooked.
A witness nearby reported that the car he was in jolted and that the sky turned red all of a sudden. The power of the explosion was such that the doors of the lifts in neighboring buildings contorted and that a woman living nearby tumbled from her bed because of the shock waves. The windows of the shops near the explosion were shattered into tiny bits, striking the locals as a severe earthquake.
Soon after the explosion had rocked the area, more than 1000 medical professionals were called out and 10 hospitals were deployed to join rescue efforts.

【玳瑚師父出差錄】 《你知道「我」在等你嗎?》
Do You Know "I" am Waiting For You? (English version below)
近日的出差,到一位患有重病的年青人住處,勘察其陽宅風水。在其門外打開羅盤看坐山向首時,他快速地稱呼吾,並開門迎接吾及吾的徒弟學生們。吾當然也禮貌地抬頭回禮,可是吾的看見,不祇是這位年輕人而已,吾更看見其身上的「業印」。
親愛的諸位大德,妳你們可曾記得,吾之前的作品,《你妳的「欠」影》及《他她的「背」影》呢?有些人的怨親債主及纏身業靈比較少,其家庭、健康、事業、感情、生意等各方面的問題、就沒什麼問題,或較遲才出問題。有些怨親債主,及纏身業靈多的,其各方面定較早出問題。正所謂;善惡到頭終有報,祇爭來早與來遲。
看了這位年青人的陽宅風水後,吾和徒弟及學生們,馬不停蹄地飛奔市區,趕赴一對學生夫婦的飯局。飯局後,吾親自為她他們挑選幾件能為她他們「遮雨擋風」的衣服。佛說無常迅速。吾細心為她他們挑選的這些「擋風遮雨」的衣服,是希望吾不在她他們的身邊時,她他們可以平安吉祥。
原本健康、快樂、如意的我們,不應該得意忘形。反而應該趁我們「盛狀」的時候,快快懺悔己過、行善佈施、積累更厚的福報,以備「急時之需」。千萬不要以我們永遠都會好,也千萬不要常想常說,心好就好。如果心好,為何又推拒與人為善呢?如果心好,又為何常「情緒不穩」呢?如果心好,又為何常佔人便宜呢?如果心好,又為何常黑白講,顛倒是非呢?如果心好,又為何不為妳你過去世及現世、所對不起的及傷害過的人與事,道歉、懺悔及謀求福利呢?「她他牠們一直都在等妳你」,妳你可知道嗎?

On a recent Feng Shui audit assignment, I visited the residence of a young man stricken with a serious illness. While I stood outside his main door, taking readings (sitting and facing directions) with my Luo Pan (chinese compass), he swiftly greeted me and opened the door to welcome my students and I. Of course, I politely raised my head to reciprocate. But what I saw was not just a young man, I saw the marks of karma on him.
My beloved readers, do you remember 2 of my previous articles titled "Your Shadow of Debt" and "His and Her Silhouettes"? Some people have lesser karmic debtors, thus their family, health, career, relationships, business and other aspects of their life have little obstacles now or that the occurrence of these obstacles has been delayed. On the other hand, those people with many karmic debtors will experience countless obstacles in all aspects of their life from a young age. As the saying goes, "The good and the bad will reap their just rewards at the end. It is only a matter of which comes first. "
After I have completed the Feng Shui audit for this young man, my students and I immediately made our way to town to fulfil a dinner appointment with another student couple. After the meal, I personally picked a few clothing items that would give them "protection" from life's "harsh weathers". The Buddha expounded the fleeting impermanence of life, that changes are always speedy. I painstakingly selected the clothing items for them in hope that they will still be safe when I am not by their sides.
We should not be complacent in times of good fortune, good health and happiness. Instead, we should realise that we are now in a prime position to quickly repent for our past misdeeds, give generously to others, and accumulate more merits to buffer us when the time of crisis arrives. Do not be deluded that the good times will last forever. Nor should you think or say that as long as you have a good heart, so will your life. If you have a good heart, why do you refuse to perform good deeds? If you have a good heart, why are you often emotionally unstable? If you have a good heart, why do you frequently take advantage of others? If you have a good heart, why do you twist and contort the facts? If you have a good heart, why will you not repent your misdeeds to those people whom you hurt from your present and past lifetimes, and seek blessings for them?.
Are you totally clueless that "they" have been waiting for you all these while?
