There are many reasons to hate on generative AI and large language models but my personal #1 reason is gen AI marketing appropriating the sparkle emoji.

It's blatant erasure of sarcastic bitch culture and I won't stand for it.

I am biased because I made some minor contributions to this but I really love it and I think you should buy it. It has poison plots! It has art galleries! It has scary mobsters! It has it all!!!

And you get to learn all the old timey French swears I helped KJ pick!

This novel really starts as it means to go on, huh?

(protagonist having a bad time, doing something extremely dangerous, getting hurt in the process. Check, check, and check.)

An excerpt from the opening pages of my upcoming novel, Wayfarer: "The heart of the storm had finally rolled over them, then. There was no more time and there were no more choices. Do this, or die. Shoving aside common sense and sheer terror and years of training, he took a deep breath in and, with it, the chaotic energy of the storm. Raw power flooded his body, flowing into every part of him, every sinew, every bone, until the pressure felt enough to unravel him from the inside out. It hurt. Oh, wise and merciful ancestors, it *hurt*."

This is what peak male performance looks like
Screenshot of a section of the Wikipedia article on the three-wattled bellbird. It reads: Mating The bellbird has its own unique mating ritual. The male birds sneak up behind the females perching on a high branches. As the male quietly approaches the female, he opens his mouth a full 180 degrees to make his distinctive "bonk" sound in her ear, knocking the female off of her branch. [citation needed] They

So in February I set a goal to reach 30 orders, the month’s halfway over and I got…6 orders. I know I can do it because I did it last month! And because I am choosing to violently believe in myself this year :) I just need a little push!

adding alt text is good for accessibility and giving context and having people go "lol the alt text " if you do it good
kathaja.com Kathaja Krim @kathaja.com · 1d
Artists, if you're able to add alt text to your images, do it. Your benefits:

• Your work is accessible to more people.
• You give context to your work and can textually highlight what is important to you.
• You can mention your OC's name! I love this one.

Been sick all week, so this strawbery sprite feels right, right about now

#faebruary #myart
A digital water color illustration of a single strawberry sprite. He lays face down on the ground with all four legs spread out and his head lef flat on the ground above him. Instead of being fully plump and round he is squished like he faceplanted and spread a bit like putty instead of keeping his shape. He lays there in humorous defeat.

The thing about Casablanca being the greatest film of all time is people don't believe you and then they watch it

You ever stop and think about CASABLANCA? You ever stop and think about "Welcome back to the fight, this time, I know our side will win?" You ever think about a bar full of people defiantly singing La Marseillaise, played by a soundstage full of Jewish refugees? You ever think about CASABLANCA??????

When I think about CASABLANCA (all the time) I think about how when it was released the war wasn't over.

Here, buy this, read it, *then* you can complain about m/m romance being popular with female readers.

Or maybe you can wonder why you'd stopped yourself from reading something so good based on mistaken presuppositions idk ;p

Become the sunrise into a new morning
A digital painting of a person similar to a centaur holding a flag pole. Their head is the sun with golden rays shining outward, bringing the sunrise. Their body has two extra legs, which are kicking into the air. Armor covers half their body, and the maroon flag attached to the pole is rippling in the dusky sky.

My #transfusionscomic and #thewitchdoor Friend's Day art from 2023. In Finland 14th of February is Friend's Day ☺️

#annikART
Digital art of Dylan and his best friend's Angie and Alf, characters from the webcomic Transfusions, playing UNO on the floor, Angie's tuxedo cat Plague is sleeping in Angie's lap, and a big orange cat is following the game in Alf's lap. Alf is holding a yellow reverse card to Angie, who has a single red card, preventing her from winning. He has a smug smile. Dylan is laughing. Digital art of Joa and his best friend Mark, characters from the webcomic Transfusions, sitting in a pub. Mark, the goth, is telling a story, and holding a cigarette. Joa, the punk, is laughing at the story and patting Mark on the shoulder. He is holding a glass of beer. Digital art of Jousia, and his neighbor Katariina, characters from the webcomic The Witch Door, sitting on a park bench. Katariina is holding a plastic container of strawberries out of reach of a big gray striped cat Ulriikka, who is reaching for and sniffing the strawberries curiously. Katariina is eating a strawberry, and Jousia is holding a strawberry too, and a takeaway coffee cup. They are smiling at the cat.
