What I dislike about these doctor appointments is they are 90% waiting and only 10% something happening.

I wonder how many inhalers it takes to equal one unnecessary AI data center for this? A few billion? A few trillion?

From my sketchbook, but decided to ink this one for funzies, can never practice inking enough as I both love it & feel I struggle with it.

For what was asked of her, and what her final response will be, I'll leave it up to you dear viewer. #furry #furryart #anthroart #anthro #nsfw #furrynsfw #art

I have experience in dealing with those kind of injuries, and they do need the help I assume, so of course, they look pretty distressed.

Well its that time of the year again, when all bunnies have the day off to relax, National Bunny Day! Naturally Blueberry has it off, but you can chill with her if you like. Props to anyone who gets this year's classic movie reference! #furry #furryart #anthroart #anthro #nsfw #furrynsfw #art

Text is: Hey, you guys showed up on another Bunny Day! I know you guys want some pinups, but you do realize it's our day off? Life comes at you pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Well, if I'm here, and you're here, I guess that makes it our time. If you wanna join me, I'm watching some videos on youtube, learning about Cuba and having some food! Come on, dig in. Double cheese and vegetarian sausage - the fennel seed really makes the sausage pop.

Added alt text with full quote.

“When I see that, I worry that they might face serious trouble down the line if they don't take it more seriously.”

Hirohiko Araki addresses Al art in his latest book:
"Recently, I came across a drawing that perfectly mimicked my art style. I thought 'I don't remember drawing this' only to find out it was Al, I was shocked, this is truly evil and a tool for scammers"

In this post there is a photo of Hirohiko Araki, creator of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure next to Giorno from the series.

By Hirohiko Araki. It’s titled “Today’s World of Con Artists” and it reads: Speaking about 'societal evils, I think that as Al continues to spread throughout society, we're going to see an increasingly shady world filled with scammers exploiting it. Recently, I came across a drawing and thought, "This is something I drew, right?" I was shocked to find out it was actually created by Al. When I draw manga, I add subtle, personal elements that make the work uniquely mine. But this Al-generated piece even mimicked details like the way I draw eyelashes, so precisely that it was almost impossible to tell it apart from my work. If it were based on recent drawings, I'd know right away, "No, I didn't draw this." On the other hand, I honestly wouldn't be able to tell the difference if it were done with my art from about ten years ago, when my memory of it would be a little hazy. The more Al advances, the more this kind of thing will happen.
Art reflects the times, and manga is one example of that. Seeing this world of con artists appear in manga could very well mean that we're headed for a future world dominated by fraudsters. This type of 'evil' in today's age will undoubtedly end up impacting manga down the line.
Copyright infringement by Al is also a 'villain' that we manga artists must face. The extreme scenario is that Al-generated fakes might start being accepted as the "real thing," and even if we try to protect our work, these counterfeits are becoming so accurate and sophisticated that it's no longer a fight an individual can win. Having some kind of laws would probably be the only way to regulate this. However, because we're dealing with a world of con artists, there's also a very real possibility that laws favoring them will appear before we know it. Personally, I entrust my copyright management to Shueisha, but some manga artists are lax in managing their copyrights, leading to others using their artwork without permission or even leaking original drawings.

Hey everyone, I want to thank all those who responded with kindness and understanding to my depression post. I know my depression isn't rational and can be sudden at times. Thank you all for the support and sticking with me. I feel alright today.

I am absolutely, miserably sad right now, I don't even know why. I have no particular reason at all, I just am. This is what chronic depression is.

Tried Taco Bell's Midnight Baja Blast yesterday. Best I can describe it is a mix of Baja Blast with watered down grape soda. Best to pour your own can in, you'd get more flavor.

Do you live on this farm? Or could turn it into your full time gig? Because you sound like you found your calling.

Laying out the pencils for this commission was a challenge, as the various poses for each character were specifically requested, but I feel that I made it work. Explict! #furry #furryart #anthroart #anthro #nsfw #furrynsfw #art

Inked commission of a threesome sex scene on a couch. The gal in the middle is Juliette, a sabertooth tiger, the fox to the left with the big tail is her boyfriend Bran, a silver gray fox-wold hybrid, and their equine friend, Romny.

Yeah, she is a part of the committee, so she may as well be proud!

Brian Blackberry @brianblackberry.bsky.social · 19d

Thanks, it is something I really want to keep practicing on.

Brian Blackberry @brianblackberry.bsky.social · 19d

Yeah, I am old, I have a thing for all things Eighties when I was but a child.

They can, but certainly not always.

The scene where she is running on the missiles lives in my heart rent free. All of this anime was genius.✨
