Satoshi needs to dramatically brood. Thankfully his parents got him an E-bike for christmas. No, he's not old enough for a motorcycle license yet... though he'll go for it as soon as he can.

Looks like Satoshi has some dramatic man feelings to work through. A father he may be, but together, he's not.

4 panel silly comic in black lines only. A blob guy has a big pencil. It says β€œI draw”. In the second panel he seems happy with his drawing and it says β€œall done yeah”. Panel 3 shows him holding up the drawing of a triangle with legs and a happy face. He goes β€œcome on”. In the final panel he’s very pleased with himself, closes his eyes and tells himself β€œI’m a bit incredible”

Traditions around hair are extremely ancient. "Hair is weird and probably contains ghosts or magic" is universal across the world.
I originally heard the pregnancy one from a Japanese person, and in research found out it probably started in polynesia.

Lisa's been introduced to one of Satoshi's family traditions. As it happens, one Audrey remembers from back in the day.

You all win for engaging in critical thinking and media analysis!"

Drawing.

Someone off-screen asks: "How can you be a trans woman and a lesbian? Doesn’t that make you straight?"

Trans woman with long hair and painted nails, wearing a beanie, a tank top, shirt and hotpants: "None of the women dating this are straight!!"

A rabbit in overalls and a goat in pants are sitting on the ground drawing pictures. The rabbit is saying β€œART POSES A THREAT TO CORPORATOLRATIC SYSTEMS BECAUSE A PURPOSE OF ART IS TO REMIND THE INDIVIDUAL OF THEIR INHERENT AUTONOMY.”, the goat adds β€œTHEIR HUMANITY.”

Kahina's hanging with her buds/baby daddies Jean and Marc, and makes the mistake of talking down about herself. Marc, ergo, MUST lift her up!

Not going to repost that shill insisting that anti-AI artists are "gatekeeping" art and that it's unfair that some people are simply too poor or untalented to learn how to draw without AI.

But I do want to talk about my cousin. 🧡

an illustration by Spindle of the characters Asimov (on the right), a half-elf with white hair tied up in a bun, and wearing a blue dress (with yellow accents and a red stripe on the bottom), sitting and kissing Ottilie (on the left), a human with short brown hair tied up in a small bun, wearing a green cardigan (with orange circles print, and white trim), white underwear, and black thighhighs (appearing green due to the tones of the art). She's in front of Asi and leaning on her, kissing back. The kiss is tongue-style
