Digital image of 4 OCs, 3 of which are toasting the 4th with a shirt that says "I'm fucking Pathetic" with arrows pointing to the 4th who wears a shirt saying "I'm Pathetic"

Surprisingly, I'm in a second Humble Bundle! I contributed a short story reframing Hamlet as a noir film to BY NO MEANS VULGAR, and I might have a wrestling crime story in one of the Fate Codex Anthologies? A lot of great games in here, so check it out!

It turns out looking exaggeratedly and dramatically sad exchanging baht at the money changer when you get turned down makes more baht appear with them (I just looked really fucking pathetic cuz I've been so tired this week)

#ocart Decided to finally do up the current roster of the Reloaded, my vigilante group who are here to cause problems and leave no crumbs

Digital artwork of Jin, an older bespectacled human man with red-highlighted hair. He smiles enigmatically, holding up a sign that says in all caps: "WHO WATCHES THE WATCHERS".

Digital artwork of Jiyoon, a human woman in a green cap and long dyed brown hair. She's clearly pissed while also holding a sign that states "WHO WATCHES THE WATCHERS" in all caps.

Digital artwork of Yujin, a younger human woman with a blue Polaroid camera hanging from a chain on her chest. She holds a sign that asks "WHO WATCHES THE WATCHERS" in all caps.

Digital artwork of (well known lesbian girlfailure) Hyunyoung, a female metahuman with purple eyes. She holds up a sign that instead says "not a watcher but here for the ride?" as if asking the others a question.

How come major film studios keep being like Jared Leto may have allegations, but at least he looks weird, stars in box office bombs, and is not a good actor

If anything I'd be really deeply suspicious on why you seem to be the eye of the storm on these things since your college to university years?? Not exactly what you want people to take away even if everyone is chill and dressed down 😖😖😖

He's just here to hang out (with his terrible handwriting cuz his hands are not built for fine motor movements) XD

#ocart Two more circles because these are so fun to draw

Dongmin, a stern looking human man in a scarf and pink glasses, holds up a sign that states "I am the watcher", indicating his awareness of being the target of the Reloaded.

Kibum, a smiling man with brown hair, holds up a sign that scrawls "not a watcher! just here to hang out" in messy writing. His hands are mechanical prosthetics that glow blue.

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

Rika's name in Japanese is Chili (チリ) and Clodsire's is Dooh (ドオー). Together that sounds kind of like Chili Dog (チリドッグ). I think the two would dress up like this for Halloween.
#pokemon #pun #fanart

Illustration. Rika is smiling, down on one knee, and gesturing with an open hand towards Clodsire. She is wearing a hot dog vendor hat and apron on top of her usual business casual outfit. The Pokémon Clodsire, a round brown salamander the size of a large dog, looks happy with its mouth wide open in a smile. It is wearing a chili dog costume that makes its body look like a hot dog, with buns to its sides and chili topping above. A line of mustard runs from its back down to its head. The top corners of the illustration are decorated with kidney beans and slices of green serrano pepper.

#ocart #sdv More Druid art, because these are surprisingly fun

Druid, now masked up, holds his syringe like a glass as he drains wine into his PEG tube. He's significantly more dressed up in a full suit with vest.

Two people in my social circle were hacked recently.

- Don't click links or download files from someone you don't know.
- Don't ever give out your account information. Website staff will never ask for those credentials.
- If you paid money to have your account released/checked, it was a scam.

#ocart #sdv Drew a Druid because I was looking through people holding drinks and of course he would do this

Druid, a disfigured farmer, stares off to the side while holding a syringe draining wine through his PEG tube. He's dressed comfortably in a long sleeved coat over a red shirt, and has a visible trach tube on his neck.

So much of people resorting to using generative AI comes from a place of feeling insecure about one's own abilities to write, draw, create, think, etcetera.

And by using the AI for those purposes, those skills and abilities will only end up stunted, as you refrain from honing them.
