By the way, if you ever feel like throwing me a few extra bucks to help support me leaning more into art, it's always appreciated!

...I might not be the best artist in the world, there's a lot of stuff I'm not particularly good at and there's a lot of stuff I really need to work on to improve the quality of my work

but at very least I am PRETTY SURE nobody else out there is doing stuff quite like i do, and I'm happy with that

this is how I, a resident of LA, found out that the Palisades fire was arson, that they caught the guy, and that he used gen AI to work his way up to doing the crime

the city of los angeles burned in january in part because of a man who couldn’t stop generating images of burning cities on ChatGPT, and then after he lit the fire he asked if the fire he started was his fault

there's an episode of The Simpsons where Marge tries to get a violent cartoon pulled from the airwaves, only to discover that the people backing her aren't going to stop at just the art that *she* doesn't like, and that supporting artistic freedom means accepting discomfort.

It aired in 1990.

Do you like queer protags, say ACAB, and love supervillains, check out some of the Korps books! Induction is a great starting point for the universe, or a good read on its own!

Happy Lesbian Day

Meme from the Fairly Odd Parents of a man gesturing at what was an empty trophy stand but now has a kinky book cover on it

He says "And this is where I'd advertise my lesbian BDSM vampire porn"

Then he looks upset and yells "IF I COULD PROCESS PAYMENTS"

repost of erika meeting minion

#ballpoint

Erika, on a bridge: I don't think you appreciate what I'm going through.
Minion: I have an idea, at least. But I know we can help. <3

Erika, at the Empire Enhancements terminal: Oh wow, there are a LOT of sliders. ... And that's a LOT of slider to work with. I didn't know real bodies could *do* this.
Minion: Well, hey, we're experts at this.
Erika: "Genital and fertility/virility settings" ... That's a *lot* of dropdowns. ... "Multiple items are selectable"? The hell. *Everyone* needs a turn on this.
Minion: Working on it. <3

... Born of silence, strong as Ninurta, God of War,
His body shaggy with hair, he bears long hair like that of a woman,
The hair of his head thick as the grain fields of Ashnan.
He knows not peoples, nor countries,
Naked he is as Sumuqan, God of Cattle.

#ballpoint on cardstock

Tablet 1. A Sumerian man holding a spear stands stunned in a field.

Tablet 1. The wild man appears to the hunter. The horned, powerful man stands before the sunrise.

Tablet 1. Closeup of the wild man.

"...A notorious trapper came face‐to‐face with him opposite the watering hole.
A first, a second, and a third day
he came face-to‐face with him opposite the watering hole.
On seeing him the trapper's face went stark with fear,
and the Wild Man and his animals travelled on.
The hunter was rigid with fear; though stock‐still
his heart pounded and his face drained of color."
