Phone cameras are so good now. Cannot believe I got such nice pics from one and not my high end camera. #mixedmedia #graphicnovel #art
Excerpt from My Girlfriend the Witch. Top half is a photo collage of clouds and transitions to a more traditional 2d style. Oh and Levi gets a hug and a smooch on the cheek from his girlfriend Latte.

Nintendo hates me. Personally. And I don't even know wtf I did.
Animal crossing splatoon collab where the splatoon villagers aren't octopi but instead squirrels with tentacle hair and as someone who loves octopi villagers and has them all I am incensed.

Here's the back image. Like most picture vinyls they are a lower audio quality and often have issue with skipping. This one was no exception. I'm not an audiophile as much as a mixed media nerd so any weird variant I'll grab it quick.
Back featuring the saja boys. Theres a loop and a lot of skipping. Hopefully it just needs a good clean.

Got an ad for this geek coffee company and it looks like the majority of their product art is ai. Made me think I was on a scam website for a sec.
Haunting of Hazelnut Hollow: architecture of home is noticeably melting into eachother. Idk why the porch starts bowing out at the end. Hansel & Gretel's Blueberry Crumble: Weird architecture melting and bulging. More interesting is the table with disappearing slats and the crust pie with blueberries sprinkled ontop. Elven Enlightenment: Maybe the particle effect is supposed to be giving off heat and that's why the hand underneath it is so blurred? The hair is also doing that skin melting shenanigans. Coco de Los Muerto: Flowers melting into skin and hair, idk what's going on with the candles and the houses roof.

Is it... the worst witch? 🤔
"Disney Wins 7-Figure Movie Rights to Adapt Harry Potter Replacement Fantasy Book Series" reads the clickbait title from a Screen Rant article. The joke here is Harry Potter's early installment relied heavily on popularized tropes and themes from an earlier series "the Worst Witch" so much so that some critics have accused JKR of plagiarism. Idk if they're adapting that though. Personally? I'd like a film adaptation of "In Other Lands" by Sarah Rees Brennan.

Anyone got recs on a replacement filter for a Primula park pour over setup? One that isn't plastic. #coffee
The filter. It has this horrid plastic scaffolding that cracks under heat. Disgusting. The set as a whole. Very affordable. Good size for serving big groups or caffeine hounds.

My neighbors kid sometimes throws stuff into my yard. Until now it's been harmless stuff but yesterday it was a glass. 🫠
Broken glass mentioned above, this was the biggest piece.

Having an in-universe anime/manga your character is a fan of means you get to draw tropey posters for it. Which I love. #graphicnovel #art #comic #mg

Fandom discourse cannot be escaped even in a magical world. #gn #mg #art
Levi (human) and Blythe (slime) discuss a popular ship from their fave anime/manga with said charachter imposed in the bkg. - Levi: So... Last Arthur... Who's your favorite character? Blythe: Emris, obviously! Levi: D'you... ship him with Iwain like Latte? Blythe: No way! Emris could do way better! A/N: Emris, in fact, could do better.
