I'm happy to draw stuff based on questions/messages people send on my straw page when I can, but please don't treat it as a Melody & Liz prompt generator lol

I think I might be on track to do 200 different pieces of art by the end of the year. Bonkers.

Nobody could have imagined the future world that would find this funny and why

A boy running alongside a train with a bindle on a stick. A word balloon reads “I’m through with school- it’s only for sissies anyway. I’ll run away and- and make money with my FEET”

"well what are the Democrats supposed to do" I don't know! They're supposed to know! I'm not the one who sought and obtained a political position that would require me to know what to do when the ruling party attempts to install the President as a dictator!

Me too, especially because it helps for me to be reminded like "oh right, I'm allowed to do that"

If you haven't been around for my streams, I've posted a supercut of one to the youtube! It's of the game Shooty Shooty Robot Invasion, which has an art style reminiscent of zine comics, and lots of NPCs to yap with: youtu.be/3tUd3u1WKRY

Supper Mario Broth @mariobrothblog.bsky.social · 12h

In Yoshi's Island, a cave background sparkles, but only when Yoshi moves. This is achieved in an inventive way by making many 1-pixel "pinholes" in the background through which a field of stars is visible. The parallax motion shows the stars intermittently, creating sparkles.

Exactly. By that logic, hey, we're all going to die, so why don't we get rid of all that pesky life in between birth and death??

For real though. The David Simon interview from yesterday was a perfect example of this, where the AI shills are saying "wouldn't it be quicker just to instantly generate something close to what you're trying to do?" and we keep saying, "no, creating IS the point," and they cannot comprehend that

I got really excited for a split second at this live because I thought he was gonna play the call I had uploaded from when Charles did this for New SMB Wii, but it was the Galaxy one instead, which I did not have hah
