Question for the Everetters on transcriptions
(midwest.social)
Hello everetters,
For a while I've been thinking about transcribing the comics I post so more people can enjoy them, but I've never actually transcribed before so I could use some pointers.
I'm very bad at describing anything that isn't dialogue, and I'm unsure if transcribing solely the dialogue is sufficient to get the message across, so maybe with somebody with more experience could voluntarily transcribe the comics at their own convenience? In which case, I would post their transcription in the text body.
If anybody got any suggestions / advice on how to transcribe actions and environment, or if you want to voluntarily transcribe some comics posted here, feel free to let me know in the comments.
Cheers!

Hi y'all,
Just wanted to sticky this to let y'all know that this community exists and I am the moderator (also of [email protected]). I don't want to be the only one posting so I hope y'all post your favourite True strips in here as well. Also some simple rules:
- This place is only for the posting of Everett True comics by Condo,
- Please try posting the most high quality image of a comic excerpt,
- If you can, post the publication date of the comic strip, otherwise type either nothing or (date unknown).
Okay Everett lovers let's get this twentieth century party started

Apparently an autograph album is “is a book for collecting the autographs of others. Traditionally they were exchanged among friends, colleagues, and classmates to fill with poems, drawings, personal messages, small pieces of verse, and other mementos.”
They were popular among university students from the 15th to mid-19th century, but have since been replaced by yearbooks.

Everett True is annoyed by loose change (Sept. 9, 1914)
(lemmy.world)
From the Seattle Star September 9, 1914 -- 110 years ago today.
On this day 110 years ago, the Imperial German forces began their general retreat from their major offensive into France which had led to the First Battle of the Marne. The Schlieffen Plan had failed. It's hard to get a sense of the amount of death that WWI brought, but here's a thought. The First Battle of the Marne had killed or seriously wounded well over half a million people. And in the US in 1910, only 5 cities had significantly more than half a million people. Just this one battle at the start of WWI was roughly equivalent to Cleveland, Baltimore, or Pittsburgh in that era being wiped out by a modern nuclear device.
Meanwhile in the US, Everett True was getting annoyed by a man jingling his change. Get some perspective, E!
