So I'd like to update this real quick:
Refern has shut down. The guy sent out an email explaining why, -and it's not coming back anytime soon. 😞 I guess Cosmos is our only alternative option now...

CoggsOfMerryweather @coggsmw.bsky.social · Mar 7

Just did some research! Let me go ahead and share them in the replies!

CoggsOfMerryweather @coggsmw.bsky.social · Mar 7

As an artist, I am disappointed. We used to use Pinterest for references. Unfortunately, now with the AI generated images, finding actual ACCURATE references is damn near impossible.
If anyone has any alternatives to Pinterest, PLEASE share them!!

My mom is *patiently* waiting for the Palia servers to finish maintenance AND SHE'S SENDING ME THIS WHILE SHE'S AT WORK
Yes I included alt text this is glorious. They all look so bad oh my god I love making fun of these
#FuckGenAI #FuckAI

My Mom sends me a picture of an Amazon listing for an AI-generated coloring book. Conversation is as follows:
Mom: "Awww....do you want one?"
Me: "WHAT THE HELL, THAT'S AN AI COLORING BOOK"
Mom: "Lol. Palia better hurry up with that update! There's no telling what trouble I may get into!"
Me: "Lol"
Mom: "Just look at the stupid stuff I'm looking at..."
Me: "'For Adults and Teens To Have Fun' HMMMMMMM I WONDER WHAT HAVING FUN EXACTLY MEANS"
Mom: "Well, I'm not going there!....."
Me: "Hehehe"

Continued conversation:
[Another picture of an AI coloring book listing]
Mom: "But just look!....."
Me: "THERE'S ANOTHER ONE?!?"
[Another screenshot of a listing]
Mom: "And look at this!......."
Me: "AND IT'S BY A DIFFERENT PUBLISHER TOO. OH MY GOD"

Continued Conversation:
[ANOTHER screenshot of a different listing]
Mom: "And wait! There's more!....."
Me: "AND THEY'RE *ALL* AI GENERATED. I'M LOSING IT OH MY GOD"
[ANOTHER screenshot]
Mom: "Even more!"
Me: "HSHAHAHAHAHAHAH"

Continued conversation:
Mom: "Oh course it's AI...there isn't really fairy men...sorry to disappoint"
Me: "THE NUPPLES OH MY GOD WHY ARE THEY LIKE THAT HAHAHAHA I CAN'T BREATHEEEE"
End of conversation.

I'm taking a break from boring college typing class because my sugar is so high rn and it's making my hands shaky and not wanting to work today >:(
ANYWAY so I will be drawing! Also gotta post art I finished earlier oops

CoggsOfMerryweather @coggsmw.bsky.social · 13d

I just realized I accidentally tagged this as Krita. THIS WAS MADE IN CLIP STUDIO I AM SO SORRY-
New lore: Coggs cannot distinguish different art programs apparently XD

CoggsOfMerryweather @coggsmw.bsky.social · 13d

Another private ArtFight attack for powerupemily on twitter/powerupemmy on ToyHouse! This is their OC Viktorin, who has no idea how he's still alive (or should I say undead...?) XD

WHY do I have to use a PHYSICAL BOOK.... FOR TYPING?!!!???!
I want to get my hands on the people at McGraw Hill who thought this was a good idea. And why am I even having to take this time-waster of a class 😑

CoggsOfMerryweather @coggsmw.bsky.social · 18d

I can't stress enough how good this is!! Thank you for drawing her >v<

My dad told me about Terry the Fat Shark and I found the subreddit and now he won't stop reading me Terry the Shark memes.
I love the internet

This is an art trade I did for @anivethia.bsky.social, for a handsome twili who I'll also be drawing later! Victor is a handsome vampire 👀
#Art #DigitalArt #Vampire #Procreate #ProcreateArt #ArtTrade

A drawing of a pale vampire holding a rose. He has moonlight shining on him from the left side. He wears dark, victorian-colored clothes and has long black hair and red eyes.

I'm in a small little fan-made #ArtFight group that takes place this month and did a revenge for @pickledpike.bsky.social on their earth genasi, Runt! I drew them as a mermaid because the theme this month is sirens and pirates!

So after Chrome decided to get rid of my ad block, I decided to get rid of Chrome ;)
So far Firefox has been pretty good. No annoying AI stuff shoved in my face. It's there for those who want it but not forced on those who don't.
BONUS POINTS FOR GETTING TO MAKE MY OWN THEME!

I made my own theme in Firefox. I love it!

CoggsOfMerryweather @coggsmw.bsky.social · 29d

I will gladly piss on her grave. (I still haven't beat her yet, send help it's been 2,000 years)

CoggsOfMerryweather @coggsmw.bsky.social · 29d

I'm not getting in anytime soon lmao #Palia

Thanks for waiting, you'll be home soon!
2,720 Palians ahead of you.
