We may or may not have promoted The Daily Blink before, but just in case we haven’t, go read The Daily Blink. It’s The Onion for WoW, and does a damn fine job of it. Today’s, in particular, outright slew me:
EDIT: Apparently we HAVE promoted The Daily Blink once already. Oh well, it deserves another!

Our RSS feed readers may have gotten a sneak peek at some G-Day related item due to a administrative error. Our bad!
The veteran D.J. Coffman has started a relief effort for comics to help the recovery process in Japan. Straight from the man’s words, how you can help is below:
Tsunamis and now a Nuclear emergency, Japan is facing one of the worst catastrophes in recorded history. Entire towns have been wiped out. There’s a food shortage and people have no place to go. What can we do from so far away?
Draw comics.
Dear webcomic creators, this Friday, March 17th 2011, we’re urging you to mention the following links either in your comic or on your comic’s blog. Whether you have 10 readers or 10,000 readers, we as webcomic creators are fortunate to have an audience that we can encourage to help donate in ways that will directly aid the people of Japan. Here are the two key places you should mention in your comic or on your comic’s blog:
Google Crisis Response – This link is for monetary donations. It is a google page made by the Red Cross in Japan. The lowest people can donate is 100 yen which is roughly $2 and change.Every little bit counts.
Second Harvest Japan – Second Harvest is an organization in Japan where people can ship supplies that will be on the ground DIRECTLY to the people who need them. Take a look at the list of supplies at the link. You might consider gathering up a big box of supplies and having a few friends pitch in for shipping to Japan. They need raw supplies more than money at this time.
Anyone who participates in this, please comment here and leave your link or send us an email with a link to your “Comics For Japan” strip. If you can’t make the deadline this week, we’re planning on doing a collected post of comics on every Friday. Please help!
You can also see how to help if you are a cartoonist by visiting his site here.
I was pretty sure before, but after seeing today’s page, I am 100% certain that Battlepug is a must-read webcomic. You must read it. It’s very young, still, so start now.
