Ok i have finished new pokemon game, I will now listen to "her" battle theme for the next month. What a perfect loud overly energetic track for her exact vibe. Oh and the rest of the game was also fun as well lol

EM @eyeballmouth.bsky.social · 5d

Made it to the end of the demo and man I love this, Im usually not one for roguelikes but this one really stuck with me. The world, these characters, the battle system, and by God the music. Im looking forward to seeing where this all leads too.

Puppy Love - Pages 16-19

Page 16 :
A digital comic page featuring colorful, anthropomorphic animals.
Panel 1 : Mason looking pensive.
Mason (thinking) : "Wasn't that my goal from the start?"
Panel 2 : Kip and Mason walking hand in hand. Kip's tail is wagging. Mason's isn't.
Mason (thinking) : "Is.. this really so bad?"
Panel 3 : A very wide aerial view of a sinuous street leading to a downwards slope.
Panel 4 : Kip and Mason walking downhill.
Kip : "Um
Mason, I'm sure you're wondering why we took this detour through the city"
Mason (thinking) : "Detour?"
Panel 5 : A close-up of Kip's face.
Kip : "I thought it might be nice to stop by before I left for the month."
Panel 6 : Kip and Mason are still walking down, looking around them. This part of town looks a little more run down, vegetation is growing on the buildings, and there are graffiti and cracks on the stone walls.

Page 17 :
A digital comic page featuring colorful, anthropomorphic animals.
Panel 1 : A close-up of Mason looking around, pensive.
Mason : "...It is"
Panel 2 : Kip running their hand along a fence.
Kip : "I... I used to really hate being back here.
But, recently, it feels different. Knowing this is where I met you changed what being here meant to me.
It...
It's like a physical representation of when my life started to turn around"
Panel 3 : Kip looking down shyly. Mason is looking straight ahead.
Kip : "When, um...
You came into it."
Panel 4 : An extreme close-up of Mason's face.
Mason (thinking) : "Kip...
They're being so vulnerable..."
Panel 5 : Kip looking back at a restaurant topped with a big fish-shaped sign.
Kip : "This is where we first ate together, remember?"
Panel 6 : Kip and Mason are reaching the bottom of the slope, walking along a brick wall.
Kip : "And here's where I slipped and fell
and we both got covered in mud...!
It really does feel like yesterday, doesn't it?"

Page 18 :
A digital comic page featuring colorful, anthropomorphic animals.
Panel 1 : A close-up of Kip and Mason walking side by side.
Kip : "I...
I'm so lucky to have met you.
I really have no idea who I'd be without you"
Panel 2 and 3 : A single drawing of Mason split over 2 panels. They are anxiously grabbing their scarf.
Mason : "As.. am I."
Mason (thinking) : "They're being so sentimental...
Surely... they aren't trying to...?"
Panel 4 : Mason letting go of Kip's hand.
Panel 5 : Kip and Mason have reached the bus stop. Mason tries walking away.
Mason : "Er- we're here at the bus stop. It'd be best if I started heading back before it gets dark out.
Call me when you're at the station, alright ?"
Kip : "Ah!!
U-um, wait, if you could just stay a few minutes!
There's uhm, something I wanted to tell you!"
Panel 6 : Mason starts walking. Kip reaches for them. They both push back and forth, Mason trying to leave and Kip pushing to stay. Kip blurts out, "Mason! I-"

Page 18 :
A digital comic page featuring colorful, anthropomorphic animals.
Panel 1 : Kip confesses. They are blushing and look very tense
Kip : "I- I like you!!
I like you, like, crazy!
More than I've felt with anybody else!
Every moment I'm around you feels like my heart is going to explode!"
Panel 2 : Kip looks down shyly, smiling and blushing.
Kip : "I can barely think straight around you !"
Panel 3 : Kip slowly starts looking back up.
Kip : "Everything you do, even just being around-"
Panel 4 : Kip finally looks back up at Mason. They immediately stop, shocked.
Kip : "...you"
Panel 5 : Mason is sweating, looking horrified. Behind them, the panel shatters like glass and reads "TOO LATE".

My really popular barebones RSS comic from November 2022! I hope it helps you stay updated with your favourite webcomics, artists and websites.
I’m just a simple guy who’s passionate about RSS feeds, comics and staying updated using both. Go forth and make the feed of your dreams!
#Art #Comic #RSS

Comic page giving a mini tutorial on what an RSS feed is. Panel 1: You might've seen this icon before. It's the RSS icon. But what is RSS? RSS is an update feed for a website. Every time the site publishes a post, article, comic page, etc. the feed is updated. Most websites have a RSS feed. Panel 2: You'll usually find it in a site's menu. It might also be on a sidebar or the footer. Panel 3: But if I click on it it's just a bunch of code! What gives? What am I supposed to do with it?! Panel 4: This is where you'll need a feed reader like feedly!

Comic page giving a mini tutorial on what an RSS feed is. Panel 1: One, on Feedly click the follow button. Two, copy the URL from the site's RSS button and add it to the search box. Panel 2: Three, this will bring up the feed for the site. Four, Add it by clicking the follow button. You can also search the name of the site without the RSS link but it's more accurate if you have the link. Panel 3: Add the new feed to a folder. Panel 4: Now the feed will appear on your Feedly when it updates! Panel 5: What I did was get the Feedly add-on for my browser. So every time a site I follow updates the extension lets me know! Panel 6: Clicking the title of the update opens the site in a new tab. I personally like seeing content on it's own site. But you can set everything up so you only ever need to open Feedly.

Comic page giving a mini tutorial on what an RSS feed is. Panel 1:If you run a site make sure your RSS button is easily accessible. The URL will usually be something like yoursite.com/feed or yoursite.com/rss. Panel 2: Be sure to follow your own RSS feeds to make sure they're updating properly. This way if it goes down for whatever reason you'll be able to catch the problem before your readers miss too many updates. Panel 3: And that's all there is to it! It's very customizable so play around with it to see what works for you! Panel 4: No fuss. No algorithms. Just the updates you choose to see! Hey! My favourite comic updated!

"free users can now pick and play any track they want!!"

Oh boy! A normal feature of a service that exclusively is about listening to music!

So glad I set up my own shit.

U.K. residents, could this be your chance to stop paypro censorship in the country? Please sign this petition

petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

Petition
Ban payment processors stopping services based on objections to legal content
Government should legislate that payment processing companies may not place stipulations on use of their services regarding sales of otherwise legal content and, if they do so, must face legal penalties and must remunerate platforms and individuals for lost income until service is restored.

Here's how you remove Google AI from your mobile devices.

amongussexgif

...

Instead of being in settings its in the google app. Also, google, not chrome. Icon is a G, not the circle thing. Click on your pfp to open a menu

From there, go Settings > Gemini > Digital Assistants > Switch to Google Assistant. This disables Gemini, google's Al assistant, and switches you back to the old one. We aren't done yet.

Go back to Settings. From there, we go Settings > Google Assistant > scroll to find General > Google Assitant on/off > turn it off

They really tried their best to make it a pain, but you can eventually disable it. Holding the power button on your phone still pulls up a menu and asks you to turn it back on, but this is the least intrusive you can make it.

Applies to all non-apple phones afaik. For sure Samsungs and Pixels but idrk about others

Edit: thank you my friend @/teeth-kid for confirming that this also works on Motorola

Reminder if you use Firefox and haven't done this yet
to disable their A/I chatbot feature (not just removing it from your sidebar):

➡ go to about:config (open a new tab and type it into the address bar)
➡ locate "browser .ml .chat .enabled" (or just search "chat")
➡ toggle to "false"

Did you call your US Senators/Congressional Reps yet? The vote is happening this week, if not today.

Tell them to kill the AI regulation ban in the Budget Reconciliation Bill. Tell them how this will harm you, it is bigger than just the creative industries, it affects EVERY SINGLE PERSON directly!
