I have every conceivable variation of "cute", "aww", "haha", "fyp", "funny", "dank memes", "relatable", and "doggos" blacklisted because using the internet feels like this.
Four-panel comic titled "Cute Animal Videos You See Online". The first panel depicts a smiling young man recording himself feeding a steak to a bear outside, captioned "feeding the wildlife lol, he's so cute and friendly 🥺, i feel sooo safe ♥" The second panel depicts a cat stylized like an analog horror shadow entity looming over a petrified cartoon rabbit. The caption says, "my pet apex predator loves playing w my pet prey animal!! ♥" The third panel depicts a possum with three arms, two tails, too many fingers with an uneven distribution, and a distorted face, seemingly playing basketball with an orange. The caption says, "lol why he ballin 😂" At the very bottom is an AI watermark that has been poorly edited out. The fourth panel depicts a smiling young woman holding a "smiling" (aggressive) monkey for the camera. The captions say, "meet my pet undomesticated animal that i acquired via the illegal pet trade that's endangering the species as a whole!!! i feel sooo safe ♥"

"the guy on the internet who says 'piss' in the stuff he's making for fun (onto which i have chosen to pay to plaster my brand) damages my brand more than me willingly putting it on the same level as malware, scams, and slop"
A four-panel comic of the Physical Manifestation of Corporate Greed (a cliche Tumblr Sexyman made of tech company logos), who speaks in all caps. GREED: (looming over viewer and pointing downwards) You there. Youtuber. GREED: (leaning forward, hand scandalously held over its face in mock surprise) Did you say the word "sex" in any context whatsoever? Salacious story? Freshman biology lesson? In a passing joke? GREED: (swooning like an anemic Victorian woman) Demonetized! We can't show ads on such scandalous smut! What if a consumer sees a product existing next to a morally neutral act of nature and thinks that means the brand endorses it?! What could be worse than that?! In the final panel, it stands wordlessly in front of a KFC ad, which is nestled amongst ads for fake dark web crypto casinos, an AI chatbot with much more lewd "flirty" text, and racist clickbait.

it's Morris Day.......
Sketches of Morris (a robot) quoting some Tumblr posts. In the first, they give a violently emotionless stare and use an unusually robotic voice to declare, "I hope a webp image feels the equivalent of human pain when I convert it to a png image" The second, they pose uncertainly with a hand on their hip, averting eye contact, and say, in a more human font, "never 'look inside' yourself btw i just tried it and there was already someone in there looking back it was so awkward" In the third, they sit distantly on the floor, looking very small and somewhat frustrated. This is captioned, "just realized i am not mysterious. i have poor communication skills."

I swear "clanker" jokes are some kinda psyop to make anyone with legitimate criticisms of AI look irrational.

"joke's on them i was only pretending to be a sadistic racist who will not listen to reason when voicing my genuine opinion. Twas Merely An Act."

Mental Image That Would Not Go Away So It Got Hastily Drawn During Lunch 2, aka 11110000 10011111 10010110 10010101
A four-panel comic drawn in pencil. A pickup truck swerves to cut off a car, which prompts the driver to press on the horn. Rather than honking, the car communicates, "pwease use youw tuwn signaw uwu~" with an excessive amount of hearts and sparkles. The truck responds by using the blinkers to signal back a lengthy string of binary code, representing a single middle finger emoji.

It's Wednesday, or as I like to call it:

Thursday
A redraw of a Sailor Moon screenshot where Usagi looks up sadly at someone off-screen, instead depicting an OC in a pink dress and deep magenta hair in heart-shaped afro puffs. Her eyes have a broken heart symbol in them. A redraw of a Neon Genesis Evangelion screenshot where Asuka is angrily reaching out with one hand and clutching the side of her face with the other in a way that implies an eye injury, instead depicting an OC with a blue, star-themed skinsuit. She has blond hair in a pixie cut.

Domino effect meme, where "The Seventh Sally, or How Trurl's Own Perfection Led to No Good" by Stanisław Lem apparently causes "Na Na Na (Simlish Version)" for The Sims 3 by My Chemical Romance/EA Games.

I did this in like half an hour on my lunch break.
A four-panel comic drawn in pencil on paper. Panel 1: Close-up of a phone open to a GPS app. It announces, "Animal reported on shoulder ahead." Panel 2: A pirate captain at the wheel looks excitedly at the phone. Panel 3: The captain turns to another pirate, who gives two thumbs up. There is indeed a parrot on his shoulder. Panel 4: The ship crashes directly into a colossal squid.

Unfortunately, I am not back on my blather because I have not stopped being on it yet. Here's more of those two, not that I'm apologizing. Bazooper. Eggbongo. Zimbabwe.
Sketch of two cartoon robots in lab coats, blue and red respectively, with the former smugly quoting an anonymous Tumblr ask sent to user orteil42 to the other: you seem like you unironically enjoyed electroswing circa 2012

Epic Gamer Webcomic From 2004
A page of sketches of cartoon robots recreating frequently-memed comic panels, specifically Pop Team Epic's "Aah, so it's like that, huh. I understand everything now. (doesn't get it at all)," "Arrested for [treason]," and "Your [clone] life ends thirty minutes from now," as well as the Powerup Comics panel, "As far as I'm concerned, all marriage is 'gay' marriage." The image as a whole is composed to resemble the Ctrl+Alt+Del strip "Loss".

Okay, time for a quick break from comics! :) *enables FireAlpaca Animation Mode as someone who is not an animator*

I have decided to do Hourly Comic Day.
Sketchy comics drawn in shades of periwinkle (faded blue-purple). 8AM, Panel 1: A phone screen at an angle, with a Bluesky feed announcing Hourly Comic Day. Panel 2: A person in bed, holding said phone, with the text, "Oh. Right." 9AM, Panel 3: A person with a ponytail, wearing a hoodie and fuzzy boots. The text explains, "Dressed! Wish I had a cooler outfit to draw..." Panel 4: The person stands in a kitchen with a cup of tea. The text explains, "I finished college a semester early, so I'm stuck at home. Yay." 10AM, Panel 5: The person sits at an art tablet, wearing headphones. A faded arrow clarifies that they are holding their lefthand wrist (poised over a remote of hotkeys) at a 90-degree angle. There are several long paragraphs of narration, reading, "I was torn about making this, since this would likely be boring and I finally crossed this off my artistic bucket list last year anyway. But I think having something to do and seeing how much my routine has changed now that I'm here might be good for me. Also, it's a little funny to me how this year's hourly day falls."

I started posting page at a time because I wasn't sure I'd be able to do one post per day, since I was about halfway done when I started posting, but now I am done and I don't know if I should post more comics at once. 🐑

"How The World Was Saved" by Stanisław Lem but I try to make a comic of it for some forsaken reason.

[1 / 21]
#art
A comic drawn in beige tones on a slightly textured background with offset colors and halftone patterns to give the impression of an old printed work. The style is fairly geometric and simple. Panel 1: A series of objects scattered on a tile floor, identified by speech bubbles - needles, negligees, noodles, neutrons, nymphs. Panel 2: The same speaker (Trurl, a gray robot with blue accents wearing a lab coat and bowtie, drawn mostly with rounded shapes) asks for natrium and holds out a hand. Panel 3: Someone out of sight replies with a big red X, surprising him. Panel 4: The other party says, "Never heard of it." Trurl clarifies, "What? But it's only sodium. You know, the metal, the element..."

Wish blocking here would force users to unfollow you instead of just hiding them on the followers page.
Glad this means spambots can't use me as a platform, sure, but I'd rather see "6 followers" and know they're all real than "17 followers" and know the majority are fake. :(

RGB / CMYK

#oc #art
A drawing in neon, hypersaturated colors of Morris (robot) posed in a contorted, abstract manner, as though twisting to look at and get away from something unpleasant on the ground. They're colored entirely in cyan, magenta, yellow, and black/white (CMYK), with red, green, and blue (RGB) copies behind them on a black background of spots and rays. A drawing similar to the other one, only Morris is colored using RGB, with CMYK behind them on a white background.

Porfy being evil (bad cable management).

#oc #art
A drawing set in a server room-like area of Porfirio (a lanky, angular blond man) wearing a white coat and leaning over something with a strained, angry grin as he pulls out a cable. It has been edited so that there are blocks of inconsistent saturation and lots of linear artifacts to make it feel glitchy.

Part of me really wants to Get Myself Out There by making more fan-art and the like, but I'm just not that kinda artist...
Sure, there's plenty of shows and games that I like, but I'm rarely actually inspired to make something about them. Besides, someone else can do that way better.

And so concludes my latest batch of "drawing characters saying Tumblr posts".
sketchy comic of Morris saying, Morris: you can straight up make up a guy and if you keep talking about him long enough he’ll show up Morris: honestly I can’t [censor] stand people who insist on storing ez squeeze bottles with the nozzle pointing upwards because its the “correct way for a bottle to go” Zach appears behind them and timidly adds, Zach: but Zach: but it is Morris turns around. Morris: [in robotic text] I created you.

A sketchy comic of Morris saying, (arms crossed) "i was born from a lab experiment in which researchers worked to synthesize a person who" (finger quotes) "deserved it" (looking at a sheet of paper) "(paper fails to clarify what was meant by this)"
