Two years ago today.
RIP Aaron Bushnell.

Hey, I could have swore they used the real name brand in the original Game Cube version.

I love WIPs where I can't help but write little narratives for as if they're already finished; like her aura farming by intentionally rejecting the need for shading/colors.

I saw the sleeves as socks/the back of the thighs as the front of the thighs at first and was VERY confused lol

"The Pression," possibly pronounced the exact same way as what it's referring to depending on accent of the speaker.

Very good friends who occasionally let Gamagori watch...

He's into Mako, but he's such a masochist that he has a cuck fetish. Mako helps with aftercare for both, in her ditzy but well meaning way, often doing things so wrong that they can't help but laugh so it winds up turning out right. Sats[...]

(sorry I keep having one-last-thing type additional thoughts on this)
And then there's that one chef, that incredible artist, who makes a better stake than almost anyone else in the world... but only serves it in a rancid vat of pickled horseradish and surströmming.

And if that steak is REALLY good, I can tolerate more powerful spice on top of it.

But comparing it to spice; yeah, I'm not gonna enjoy straight habaneros, but some pepper on a steak is nice.

As someone who almost always HATES ntr, this resonates with me, as I will, on occasion, like things that feature it in spite of its presence.

Also I can't help but find it slightly concerning that the hypothetical prospect of my own imminent demise is less of turn-off than getting cucked.

A 2 panel sketch disgram of a 1 meter tall pod. in the second panel, an oval section pops off and a demonic little face with short tentacles flies out, crudely drawn.

My favorite artifact in the "you don't need AI to do art" discourse is, of course, screenwriter Dan O'Bannon's sketch of the facehugger to explain it to Giger.

My personal favorite lines:
(Paraphrasing from memory)
"And then there's the famine"
"--oh that's us"
"what?"
"The famine. That's us."
"What do you mean the famine is us!?"
"Well there'd normally be the... normal amount of food there but we've been taking it."

Unlikely to post art often if ever, as I’ve made enough progress with perfectionism to keep drawing, but not quite enough to show anyone. If my laptop wasn’t constantly crashing, I think I might try going digital again, but I’m not sure.

Couldn’t think of what to draw.
Start drawing a goth girl but I suck at designing OCs.
The expression/shapes coincidentally ended up more cartoony than planned.
“Guess I’ll turn this into Stocking…”

She really should at least be using her hands… for the cereal.

I can’t tell if it’s honey, marmalade, or even molten lava (least likely, but the color palette does imply heat) but it certainly looks tasty.

chainsawsuit comic. a doctor speaks to his patient panel 1: you have stage 4 cancer which is incredible news, for the cancer panel 2: tumors fuel growth and innovation. cancer is all about moving fast and breaking things like, what it we stopper getting in its way! panel 3: who are we to say we know better about cancer's business? i'm just an oncologist

this is about billionaires

At least none of those Germanic or Anglo-Saxon barbarians or the North are being cast as proud Mediterranean mean and women! Wait- WHAT!?!?

Seeing all this shit from the Epstein files, I almost feel like we owe the PizzaGate terrorists (or was it just the one guy?) an apology. ALMOST. They were still grossly misinformed & useful idiots for the actual monsters, but I fully understand their frame of mind/actions in believing it.

Mediocre sketch of an a winking werewolf girl with big pointy teeth, one eye closed, & a half-eaten sausage hanging out of her mouth. Done in pencil & paper.

After a bunch of technical issues with my local comic shop, I finally got Noss & Zakuro v2 by @rariatoo.bsky.social
So I decided to celebrate by drawing Rudy the werewolf eating a sausage.

Man on a local news street interview: The earth is a resort for like 500 rich people and the rest of us are just the staff.

This shit hits like a sledgehammer right now. It's not even remotely an exaggeration.

I mean, it could mean acts of service, but it’s almost always mentioned on profiles that seem… more content with our capitalist/consumerist systems.

Then there’s the economic aspect… which rubs me the wrong way just in its existence. On the dating apps I can’t help but see the patterns set from centuries of misogyny & I’m a broke loser who couldn’t give the “princess treatment” (as I understand it) if I wanted to.

I think part of it is I want to feel desired more than I want to chase someone else, as I am made to believe many cishet neurotypicals like, but I don’t know how to make myself more attractive to the kind of people I find attractive. Then there’s the matter of having the spoons to do it…

Idk. I’m autistic, it makes sense for me to have problems with this, but it still sucks.

Fuck I wish I knew how to actually meet people
Don’t want to pose this as a “male loneliness epidemic” thing that needs outside forces to fix for the poor little cishet (or in my case agender but close enough functionally) boys. This feels like something that should be an individual’s responsibility

This past week Hinge has only been showing me 1 profile a day, for a 75 mile search radius. Yes, I have filters on, but is it seriously too much to filter out conservatives, ‘moderates’, & people who have/want kids?! I’m ~35 miles from Detroit! Is the platform dead this close to Valentine’s Day?!

Unfriendly reminder, AI is being used to destroy trust. Do not normalize the use of AI. AI can not reliably enhance videos or low-quality images.

This is the quiet replacement of reality. Do not let this be normalized.

Aside from the obvious, my favorite part was the assertion that imperial oppression is "alien to the traditions of American and Christian morality."
I too have never read a single paragraph of history!

Fascism has too many subtly different definitions (likely by design) & USians just LOVE to pick a different one for every occasion to nitpick at how this specific thing doesn't fit this specific definition PERFECTLY. Like that line from the Barbie movie.
