I will never get over this fic. This one took root in a way few other stories can. This one is in my DNA now. Kraiva, you outdid yourself.

I’m Geoff and I do mythical creatures and fantasy characters!
Thanks for this share!

Three female kalavinka, half human-half bird spirits from Buddhist folklore, are flying through the air while playing music. One is singing, one is playing percussion, one is playing electric guitar. Digital painting.

Quicksand Elemental rises from the murky swamp, skeletons of drowned victims are embedded in its body of slimy mud and tangled roots. It looks at you with glowing red eyes. Digital painting.

Dryad of the Oak or ‘Girl With Acorn Earring’

It is a version of the Vermeer portrait ‘Girl With Pearl Earring’ but this girl is a Dryad, a tree spirit from Greek Myth. Her hair is Oak leaves. A brown, shiny acorn hangs from her leaf-shaped ear.

Rat King. Ten thousand scurrying rats fill the robe, hold the scepter, lift the sword, wear the crown. Digital painting.

Digital illustration with a traditional appearance of purple and yellow-orange hues on canvas. The setting is Clocktown, from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. A low view of Link stepping away cautiously while looking up past the clocktower at the massive and menacing moon that will soon crash down on Termina.

Digital illustration of a man and woman celestial beings. Near the bottom, the man is lifting a pure black orb, somewhat like a black hole, above his head. Above the orb, the woman lifts weightlessly toward a bright galaxy and space dust, her bright hair flowing downward and encircling the black orb.

Digital drawing with traditional appearance. A woman in a loosely fitting dress that covers everything but her neck up and forearms to hands. Her hands are clasped. Her hair is blowing upward and entwined with planets and stars. Her head is upturned and peaceful. She's part of everything and distinct.

Banjo-Kazooie fan art. A digital sketch with a traditional appearance and purple-ish to yellowish hues. It depicts Banjo and Kazooie in a reimagined design, as they scale up Spiral Mountain toward Grunty's Lair. Bottles the Mole looks over the top of Spiral Mountain down towards Banjo and Kazooie.

John and Arthur catching lightning bugs #malevolentpodcast

An illustrative comic page depicting Arthur Lester (and John Doe) from the Malevolent podcast catching lightning bugs. Stars shine bright over them as they sit in an open field of lightning bugs. The page is framed in golden lines, two fire themed fleur-de-lis, and two trees; one with an inconspicuous owl on a branch.

it took a week, but I made a comic interpretation of one of the best moments in the @malevolent.ca podcast, my personal favourite, from episode 40.

Dialogue is taken from the #malevolent episode itself. #artpost

Spoilers:

a large single comic page adapted from the Malevolent podcast, episode 40.
Arthur, a suit wearing man with a mustache, grips the hand of Noel, a trenchcoat wearing detective with a tie and a 5-oclock-shadow, as he dangles off the side of a massive theater balcony. Arthur is losing his grip as an off-screen ethereal voice commands Noel to "FALL." which he almost obeys, until strange tentacle-like whisps of energy give Arthur the strength to pull him up, rising out of him like steam.
The golden-coloured energy coalesces dramatically into a gigantic godly entity, who goes by John, swirling into place like a stirred glass of glowing yellow dye, cosmic stars float around inside him, he roars with anger, screaming at his adversary, "Yellow", ie the King in Yellow, who cowers behind Larson, a grimy looking man with glasses who he's attached himself to not unlike how John seems to be attached to Arthur.
Noel tries to steady Arthur who seems to be physically taxed by this apparition but John continues, pointing directly at Yellow, who is in disbelief, that this is even possible to begin wtih. John calls his pathetic reach for power weak, and bades him to leave, to seal himself away in his host Larson like a coward, and while impressive and terrifying display continues to sap energy from Arthur as Noel shouts out, Yellow asks how this is even possible, why HIM, why give a damn about this human at all.
John's energy seems to dissipate as he evapourates back into Arthur saying that his power comes from how much he and Arthur support and believe in each other, something Yellow will never understand.

I think AI is going to eventually tank in the longterm, but...

the only real way to combat this is single-interest communities. Forums, user comms, etc, with a barrier to entry. They become trustable knowledgebases. It's really the only way forward is to return to what worked best the first time

a text post from Michael Tonelli: "It's really unbelievable the niche parts of the internet that Al is ruining. My wife looks up crochet patterns online. It's now overrun by Al made up patterns that make no logical sense. My wife said if you tried to crochet the pattern that Al hallucinated, it wouldn't even be possible.
And it's like, why? Why is someone ruining free crochet patterns? How were they even aware of that corner of the internet? Is there a plan to make the internet so unusable that people abandon it so we don't have access to information anymore?"
