#OldTober day 10. Tsuyu Asui aka Froppy. A froggy hero who fights for justice.

Ribbit.

TMNT has a series going right now with another season about to drop. Flintstones are just reruns for eternity. Who even owns Woody Woodpecker now? Dennis the Menace was never funny.

Meanwhile Popeye laughs at all of them.

I think I want to make a zine. I currently don't own a working printer due to frustration with "smart" ink cartridges. What's the dumbest printer on the market now? Laser or liquid tank preferable. B&W, no wifi, no cloud, no call home, no software updates, just plug the damn thing in and it works.

Imagine saying this to DAVID FUCKING SIMON. It’s like telling Ray Harryhausen “I could imagine you thinking, boy, I wish I had had CGI to solve all those thorny stop-motion problems.”

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

I really only could experience this by going back to analog. Streaming and mp3s feel like empty and hollow noise. Physical albums can communicate thoughts and feelings across time. There's so much power in that. To hold someone's intentions in my hands.

A life not lived. Whether you pursue everything or nothing. Materialism or spiritualism, war or peace. There's a quiet acceptance of mortality in this album that really only shines through when you put it all together. So now I get why this album is such a big deal.

Yeah....ok I get it. I always say I prefer The Wall, but damn. This album is 100% hits. There are no fillers or B sides. Every single track still plays on the radio today for a damn good reason. If that were all, I'd leave it there, but to listen to them in order, there's a story there.

Sat down today and listened to Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon album (vinyl) today. Sure I've heard every song on it already. You have too if you've ever turned on an FM radio, but to sit down and just Listen is a different experience.

#OldTober day 9. Summer's Last Kiss. Hannibal and Piago have long been an item in AntiBunny. This sketch is from 2013. Two mistakes here. Hannibal is pudgier than this, and Piago would not take off her goggles for this.

A sketch of Hannibal and Piago from AntiBunny wearing swimsuits and kissing on a beach.

Too bad there was never a sequel.

What ever happened to "there is no bad publicity?"

Vinnie D. @antibunny.bsky.social · 2d

Really If any part of the speaker is on panel I'd just use a normal tail. Inward should be for fully off panel speakers. Then again, it reads, so it's not like it's an unforgivable comic sin. Sometimes you can creatively break the rules.

Here's what Frank Castle has to say about those.

#rpgtober 2: Paladin

Jane's not technically a Paladin, but she wields a two-handed sword and likes to wear a tabard.

#OCs #P5ychArt #LatchkeyKingdom

Jane (buck-toothed, furry girl) shows Willa (green furry girl) the proper stance for holding a two-handed sword.

In my opinion 15mph is not fast. I'm a fat bastard and I can do that on a normal bike. 45mph and even 60mph electric motorcycle with cosmetic pedals are the problem. Not commuter bikes that can do 20 if the wind is right and the rider is pedaling their ass off.

#OldTober day 8. This old ink pen and brush pic is still one of my all time favorites. Optimus Prime wielding Megatron. From 2012.

So AI will die if we artists make them ask permission?

Your terms are acceptable.

Not a dad yet, but as long as North Americans argue over Phillips head vs square head screwdrivers, they never realize that both are equal....ly inferior to torx.

I think at some point the investment in human labor is going to be worth it to free up finite computational resources. I think it will also help that as servers migrate, AI slop simply doesn't make the migration. This all requires of course that the flood stops.
