Hi, I’m Monica. I make a comic called Get Some Help about Queen, a creative woman with adhd, and Onyx, the opinionated digital assistant she built.

If you’ve ever asked for help and regretted it, this might be your new favorite spiral.

Updates every Saturday at getsomehelpcomic.com and Tapas

A Black woman with a natural puff hairstyle and large round glasses sits at a desk in a home office, smiling and waving at the viewer. She wears a pink shirt and is surrounded by work items—a laptop, notebook, pencil, coffee mug, and desk lamp. Behind her is a corkboard with pinned papers and a tall bookshelf filled with colorful books. A speech bubble above her says, “Hi I’m Queen. Creative freelancer, deadline dodger, and expert in looking like I slept eight hours.”

He's always been the embodiment of cozy to me. Loved Untitled, don't get me wrong, but I have kids because my Mr. and I got cozy to D'Angelo. His look, sound... all of him is better than a glass of wine.

Thank you for explaining my feelings on this. I lost my Dad last year too, and I couldn't figure out why this is hitting me so hard. 🫂

So I guess it's official then... ChatGPT has cured mental health issues so they're giving away free erotica to everyone who gives up their identity! 😒

Let me get back to work... 🤦🏾‍♀️

Matt Burgess (WIRED) @mattburgess1.bsky.social · 13h

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

CEO of Water, I miss what you could have become.

#SiuanSanche #SophieOkonedo #fanart #TheWheelOfTime

An Art Nouveau–inspired digital illustration of Siuan Sanche, Daughter of the River, the Water itself, an Aes Sedai. She is shown front and center with closed glowing eyes, wrapped in a blue fur-lined cloak. Streams of water flow across her eyes and outward, connecting the elements of the scene. Two golden koi fish swim around her, their bodies shimmering. Behind her are silhouettes: one of a young girl against a golden moon and water, and another of Siuan in her formal Aes Sedai regalia holding a staff. Swirling golden patterns, starry textures,and golden frame.

Telling my story to Onyx is emotionally exhausting. I should have just programmed it in so he'd already know. Can I upload all my trauma to my digital assistant to process for me? 🤔

Thank you! I hate how easy it was to write that from life. I think this next one will be the most emotionally charged. It's all a whole roller-coaster lol So glad you're still reading! 💖

Artist note: Waaaaay too much glass in this sketch! Just a prime example of how sometimes ideas aren't as easy as they sound. Ugh... Final version will be available Saturday with the conclusion of this flashback. Warning, it's not pretty.

Artist note: making the flashback look like a really old comic was the best and worst idea I've ever had! Love how it came out but man was it tedious! 😩

Dungeon Crawler Carl was written and posted chapter by chapter during covid. I just bought all the audio books and gifted the ebooks bc it's so good! I would def do that with your new book because Castoff is THAT good! You have the foundation and the audience, so build it bc we're already here!! 💖
