it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI
recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best. It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

A friend of mine told me that one of the ways I laugh sounds like Eustace from Courage, so I felt obligated to make a thing for the bit.
A pencil sketch of my sona, but they are shaped and proportioned to look like Eustace Bagge from Courage the Cowardly Dog. They are pointing and laughing.

Also, a bonus silly doodle I made last night after finishing my brush week work for the day.
A pencil drawing of my sona sitting on the ground with their right leg bent, wearing a shirt with a heart on it. They have their eyes closed, and there are music notes to the side of them. Above them is text with an arrow pointing to them, which reads "listening to Undertale OST".

Here's my first drawing for #brushweek2025! I had a lot of fun practicing new posing for all of these, and I'm excited to share everything I ended up with!
An silver and blue anthropomorphic cat standing in space, wearing a space suit. Under their left arm is the suit's helmet, and they are happily greeting the camera with their right.

Haven't drawn my sona with their tail a single time until now, there's a very high chance they don't like me for this one.
A pencil sketch on the back of a sudoku puzzle, featuring my sona angrily looking at me (a generic human shape with the word "me" written on the face) with their arms crossed. Below me is text reading "forgot to add the tail immediately when drawing (will forget again)", as well as an arrow pointing to me. I am nervously sweating and rubbing the back of my head. A screenshot from Webfishing, showing that my webfisher very much has a tail.

Recently started running a time themed gym in a cobblemon server, and I wanted to draw my guy being cool at the top of the tower I built for it!

#art #minecraft #pokemon #cobblemon
A digital drawing of an altar made of mud stairs, cracked stone, prismarine, sea lanterns, and blue concrete. An anthropomorphic cat is standing atop the stairs facing to the left, looking smugly at the camera. They are holding a timer ball. A screenshot of a large blue and gray tower built in Minecraft, featuring the same blocks as in the drawing.

I'm begging any artists still using Twitter claiming it's integral to their work to just leave. It's been revealed the site works off a made up "credit score" from hell and punishes you for posting like a normal human being.

Abandon Twitter for good. It's time. It's been time.
A quoted tweet from a user named Sam that reads: "How Twitter is rigged Type in all caps because you're excited? Lowers your reputation. Include links? Your score goes down. It's like the Credit Score system from Hell. And given Cisgender is treated as a slur & MAGA boosted, you can guess what's categorized as 'offensive'" The tweet they quoted is from user SADIQ and reads: "Tweepcred is X's reputation system Based on your behavior, you get a tweepcred score It determines your reach Break the algo rules, you score goes down and your reach disappears What are the rules of the X algo tho? Glad you asked." SADIQ includes a photo of Twitter's algorithm code that calculates a user's reputation. SADIQ continues: "Post 'offensive text'? 80% reach reduction Offensive username? 80% reach reduction All caps tweet? That's seen as 'shouting. Major penalization. Include links? Yup, penalized"

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

Eevees today for Eevee Day! The last five minutes or so of it at least...

Last year is a damp Vulpix, just out of the rain.

So my webfisher has slowly become an actual sona for me, and I've just been finding opportunities to draw them whenever. Here's a some doodles I've done of them recently!
A pencil sketch of an anthropomorphic cat on the back of a sudoku puzzle. The cat has a spot on their left eye, and is wearing a beanie, solid shirt and pants, and a striped jacket. They are giving a thumbs up with one hand and saying "Can do!". The solution to the sudoku puzzle is mostly visible in the bottom left. A digital sketch of the same cat, dressed as a mail carrier. They are looking very pleased, standing with their hands on their hips. There are a few sparkles to the left of their head. Another pencil sketch of the same cat. They are wearing a shirt with many pockets, pants, and boots, as well as a flower on their head and a small pouch. They are falling forward, dropping a pear to their right. Another pencil sketch of the same cat. They are half visible standing in a box, looking disgustedly at a phone in their hand. Above the box, the words "Live Pesto Reaction" are written.

Started a nuzlocke of Pokemon HeartGold recently where my encounters are the first pokemon mentioned in each trainer's phone call dialogue. I started drawing everyone for fun, and it kinda turned into an artlocke as well.

Part 1/?, I'll add more drawings as replies as I go.
A pencil drawing of Rattata, with text to the right saying "Cassava, Serious, Alert to sounds". Pencil drawings of both Metapod and Butterfree, with text to the left saying "Peanut, Hasty, Good endurance". A pencil drawing of Togepi, with text to the right saying "Turnip, Hasty, Impetuous and silly". A pencil drawing of Tentacool, with text to the left saying "Carola, Quirky, Very finicky".

Drew my webfisher again, but since I've been replaying Zelda 1 recently, I felt like drawing them with Link's outfit.
Several pencil drawings of my webfishing cat character in the outfit of Link from the Legend of Zelda series. On the left, they are holding a small sword in their right hand, confidently pointing it to the side with their other hand on their hip. In the top right, they are wearing a large cape and flying horizontally with their arms stretched forwards. At the bottom, they are sitting playing a recorder poorly. Above this drawing is the text "cannot music", along with an arrow pointing to them.

I've been slowly chipping away at the new Deltarune chapters with a friend, and I felt like drawing Ralsei. Hoping to finish Ch4 sometime in the next week!

Another sketch of my webfisher that I made while one of my friends was showing me music from the new mariokart game.
A pencil sketch of a cat character from Webfishing. They have a spot on their left eye, as well as a dark beanie and flannel overshirt. Their eyes are closed and they are moving their hands near their chest in a slight dance. A music note is floating near their head.

I've been drawing my webfishing guy recently while watching art streams, and it's been fun trying to stylize them a little bit.
A screenshot of a Webfishing cat character. The cat is light red with a dark red spot on its left eye. They are wearing a black shirt with a sunset graphic, an open red flannel overshirt, dark purple pants, and a black beanie. They are holding a black and red fishing rod. Pencil sketches of the same Webfishing cat character. The paper includes test drawings of the in-game design, mouth expressions, ear shapes, and eye designs. One completed sketch is a full facial expression, while another features a small version of the cat looking up with big, wet eyes. A full-body pencil sketch of the same cat character. The cat is holding a fishing rod, looking up in awe at a sparkling fish that they have caught. They are standing on their left leg, leaning back with their right leg raised into the air slightly.

Recently put together a mod for Balatro that replaces the playing cards with Rain World themed ones, and I'm really happy with how it turned out!
A screenshot of the playing cards from Balatro. The number cards feature Rain World's karma symbols, and the face cards include various characters and creatures from the game. Another screenshot of the Rain World themed Balatro cards, which shows the high contrast version of the cards.

#RWArtMonth Day 31: Unfortunate Development
The zero gravity mechanics here are both awesome and terrifying to navigate. The first time I got here, I ended up getting lost in front of my best friend & we had to pull up the online map.

#RWArtMonth Day 30: Overseers
I recently learned these guys look at the player more or less depending on how much karma you have, which is really cool! I also like how they're basically independent cameras, so iterators can kinda use them for video calls.
Two overseers in the foreground managing communication between Seven Red Suns and No Significant Harassment. In the background, two more overseers are fighting, with one being mad at another displaying a crossed out drop of water.
