An official comic book permission slip granting you, yes you, permission to make a comic.

Seems like a good day to post this again.

Print it out.

Frame it.

Hang it on your wall.

Make your comic.

"I need AI to make art, human art is only for the rich and privileged-"

A single guy has been drawing and coding a massive looping animation of a space station — packed with pretty much every pop-culture character you can imagine — all by himself since 2018. And over the years it’s grown into a true masterpiece!

These guys know what's up. @mohoanimation.bsky.social

Every single artist that posts on BlueSky should have this saved to their computer because so many of you are posting character torsos all day.

listen my advice for learning to make comics is will. always be: try. it won't be good. don't expect it to be. that's not why you're doing it. I don't care if you wanna do art or scripts or editing or colors or lettering or what. just try it. you'll be BLOWN AWAY at what just TRYING it teaches you

Wow, damn, that's an old one! Haha I'm surprised you still have it. Very sweet, though - I'm glad you do. <3

Anger Ham is like 2/3rds shorter than it was a few years ago and the story is so much better for it. I scrapped so much, man. So much... 😅

drawing is a fine motor skill and will fuck up your muscles and tendons if you don't stretch and the cool thing about tendons is that once you fuck them up they take anywhere from months to years to never to unfuck. so stretch

Here is a video of a frozen creek that had begun to thaw, and the water was flowing beneath the thin ice on top. I took this because it was soothing and wonderfully bloopy and I wanted to listen to it for hours. You are all welcome to enjoy it, too. Let your brain settle here and rest for a moment.

Discord wants to know how you feel about AI.

Go tell them: discord.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

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.

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

Tumblr user? Here's what to know about Tumblr selling your data to OpenAI and MidJourney Parent company Automattic will reportedly sell Tumblr content to OpenAI and MidJourney for training data. Here's how you can opt out.

Just a reminder, because everyone seems to have forgotten:

Tumblr wants to or is actively selling your data: mashable.com/article/tumb...

In light of recent Ai related nonsense in the creative industry, I wanted to present some easy-to-digest facts about Generative Ai

TrinitySilph's 2025 Art Summary. A black and gold template showing small previews of 12 art pieces completed in 2025, one from each month.

A few of these have never been posted publicly, but hey - proof I'm always doing stuff and things, even if only a few people see them. :P

"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future."

- @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit.

Incredible words.
Listen to all of it!

A word balloon saying “AI makes art more accessible” above a sketchy drawing of Beethoven at a piano. Below, it’s says “Beethoven was literally deaf. Stfu and pick up a pencil.”

If you use GenAI, you’re not welcome here #NoAI

Hey you! Stop playing Fortnite!

Robin Williams' daughter, Zelda Williams, also recently slammed people who are making Al-generated videos of her late father, calling the clips "gross." She added, "To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough, just so other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop pup-peteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it."

The Epic Adventure of Anger Ham The Epic Adventure of Anger Ham

I'm working on a webcomic tribute to a really angry hamster I knew once upon a time. It's about magical girls!
The hardest part was losing a ton of work to a SSD crash - always back your work up, kids! (Also, layouts are of the devil. :P)

Green girl, reading a novel: This novel sucks! This writer can't write! They should have just made their story into a comic instead. Pink girl: A comic is not an inferior version of a novel. Comics are not a dumping ground for failed novel writers.

Inferior Medium.

Love this so much. 💜

Have you tried tripe? The smell of it might be strong enough to mask the pill and make a bite irresistible. Poor furbaby...
