Drawing of Melinoe from Hades 2. She's sitting down on a rock and petting one of her familiars, a black dog. Beside her are more familiars: a frog sits beside her, a white raven sits on a branch behind her, a cat and a ferret are engaging in playful behavior on the ground. Behind them is a background of orange bushes.

A short comic strip in four panels: Panel 1. In a dark throne room, King Konstad sits surrounded by his guards and large statues. Kneeling before him is the High Wizard Albrus. > High wizard Albrus: Fear not. All of the books which you have asked to be destroyed, I have taken care of them personally. > King Konstad: Well done, Albrus! Panel 2. Albrus rises and leaves the throne room, followed by his wizard assistant who was waiting outside. Panel 3. As they walk away from the castle, getting outside, the assistant speaks with surprise and curiosity. > Albrus’s Assistant: But you did not destroy those books. You merely gave them to the Witch of the North. Panel 4. Further from the castle, on the bridge, under the day light, Albrus reveals his philosophy. > High wizard Albrus: Konstad is my King, but kings come and go, and knowlege is my god...

what da hell

One of my Coastguard Hibiscus crew mates took this picture earlier tonight and captioned it “early Christmas”.

It’s the view from his place in Army Bay, Whangaparaoa

heh, who knows what's happening underneath.

floating line giving garbage, buffer overwrite error in firmware, different datatype

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My guess is that the bug was discovered 4 years ago, but it's too low priority for the devs to be allowed to fix it.

erm, intentional?

A series of Tumblr posts, all from user dommunist: the older I get the more dog I become obsessed with being given affection and being told im doing a good job... losing my damn mind every time I get to go for a nice walk TERRIFIED of the doorbell

Whoever at @akltransport.bsky.social is responsible for the ATPark app: well done.

It’s an unexpectedly simple and delightful app, especially for public sector.

Also it’s so easy to use, it makes me lol at people complaining about parking tickets.

As an example of how AI tools have racism inherently built into them, here is a Grammarly suggestion to not have Te Reo Māori first, but to prioritise Reo Pākehā. Needless to say, I find this disappointing and also alarming. #AIisracistAF

A comic strip in four panels: Panel 1: In the middle of a field of dry wheat ready to harvest, not far away from a farm, stands a cute, young feminin scarecrow made of straw, sticks and old clothes. A crow lands on her, followed by a flock of crows in the distance. She looks worried. Panel 2: The cute scarecrow is humiliated: the crows are not afraid of her; they mock her, make faces at her, take selfies with her and one even poops on her hat. Meanwhile, many of them are eating the precious seeds on the ground. She feels sad about it. Panel 3: The cute scarecrow then has an idea and say something with a wink to the crows around her. All the crows interrupt their business and look at her in horror and shock. > cute scarecrow: I like pineapple on pizza. Panel 4: Happy ending, the flock of crows flies away and the cute scarecrow is happy: she has done her job correctly.

Tutorial for drawing scales on a creature leg, using a photo of Mizutsune as reference. Step 1: Start with cleaned lineart. Step 2: stencil in guidelines for the rows of scales in a different color. Step 3: Draw lines perpendicular to the guidelines, spacing them roughly the same distance apart. Keep in mind the curvature of the body. Step 4: Finish drawing the pointed edges of the first row of scales. Step 5: Using the corners from the first row of scales, draw more parallel lines to start the next row of scales. Step 6: Add extra line weight to visually separate the rows of scales.

I'm in pain from drawing scales so I threw together this quick tutorial in case someone else was in the same boat. 🥲 Guidelines can help you keep your scales organized!
