✨🎃☕Pumpkin Spice Latte Witch☕🎃✨
Drew her back in 2019 but I like her so much I made holographic stickers! Right in time for Hallowe'en! 👻

Bust of a woman wearing a witch's hat and performing some magic as a drink, a pumpkin spice latte, floats near her index finger. She has blonde hair in thick curls and two jack o' lanterns on each side. In front of her is a rough, wooden plaque that reads "Pumpkin Spice Latte Witch" but it originally said "Bitch", the 'B' is now crossed out and replaced with a 'W', reading 'Witch'. She's looking smug and confident at her floating, probably enchanted, pumpkin spice latte.

Picture of a sticker of the previous illustration. The sticker is holographic.

It’s a "crisis" when immigrants "take jobs away", but "innovation" when machines do. Funny.

The fact an industry that relies on basically destroying the only planet we can live in AND ignores the laws put in place to protect artists and copyrighted works hasn't fucking died yet baffles me. GenAI serves no purpose at all.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

I feel bad for having excluded other 10 horror films I absolutely love, but oh well. lol

The Subject by Timo Tjahjanto is a short cyborg body horror film that was included in the V/H/S 94 horror anthology. It's an extremely niche genre of horror that genuinely scares but the film is produced in such a way it feels like you're playing an FPS. It's brilliant!

Sora🍉 @heavymetalred.bsky.social · 7d

If you're constantly looking for media that reminds you of SOMA (the short movies and the video game), which rewired my brain in such a way I'm still hungover after having played it almost 8 years ago, Zygote is the closest thing to it I've experienced imo.

You can watch Zygote on Youtube if you haven't already, it's an absolutely incredible sci-fi film
