A reminder that I have a collection of comics translated for our enjoyment over on my blog! I'm thinking about going through older, untranslated comics, but not all at once. Most are the comics Sensei put out during the summer~

dusted off some old ocs last night ^_^ #ocsky

four portraits of my special little witch ocs. clockwise from the top left: a handsome girl with her hair covered in a scarf, a grumpy girl with bluntly-cropped hair, a sweet looking girl with her hair braided around her head and down her neck, a peppy girl with asymmetrical bangs and a ponytail on top of her head

the grumpy one grabbing the shirt of the handsome one because she ragebaited her (they are gay)

somewhat remarkable

Emma sitting hunched over on a small wooden stoop, with her knees up and her arms folded. On the doorframe behind her, a spider has spun a web with the words “SOMEWHAT REMARKABLE” in it, ala Charlotte’s Web

hiiiii here’s a comic i made about having a job and being overwhelmed (1/7)

comic cover!!! featuring the main character, Dina, looking nervous and sweaty. She’s a young woman in an ill-fitting work shirt and pencil skirt with her dark hair tied up in a bun and bangs pinned with a dog-shaped clip. Some sort of ominous shadow looms over her. Text reads: FELT BAD, MET GOD by molly kate young (aka longfusilli) (aka ME!!!!)

Stanford researchers found that AI-generated "workslop" is actually making people less productive, in part because workers have to correct errors or decode the useful information/intent buried in a flood of auto-generated garbage:

AI-Generated “Workslop” Is Destroying Productivity

Despite a surge in generative AI use across workplaces, most companies are seeing little measurable ROI. One possible reason is because AI tools are being used to produce “workslop”—content that appea...

If you see this, post a coyote too!
(Remember when I used to draw?)

digital art of a mirrored drawing of a brown coyote with its mouth open and teeth showing, leaping in a circle. The moon phases are in the center of the image, with icons of blessings and curses a coyote might experience in between the two animals.

Today I saw a harbor seal with 37 chins sleeping, bobbing up and down in the waves.
