Haru-kaze

I am in! I'm nervous I might not click with the crowd because I make very specific things (though I'm expanding my inventory in a different direction right now)

Love and miss you too, friend!
I'm worried I aint gonna fit into GDQ artist alley. =_=

Legit terrified.
I'm so small, and I don't deserve the space I'm being given.
I'm working so hard to fill up these shoes, but I still feel it's far from enough :(

Reminder that less than 48 hours left to use the code!
In the meantime, some standees have arrived!

Discovered new Earl grey with yuzu.
Take perfect and make it even more perfect :3 ☕☕☕

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue looks at Green in confusion, as Green is covered in pink hair rollers. Green: I'm going to find out what I'd look like with curls! Blue sits down to wait as Green leaves the room. Green: It's time to take the rollers out! Blue sits with the most neutral expression possible as Green returns, as a fluffy cloud of uncontrollable curls. With miraculous self-discipline, Blue manages to keep his expression neutral, while Green frowns at him. Blue: Requesting permission to laugh hysterically. Green: Request denied.

Me: I have no skill
Also me: *has to always tell people that I drew those standees, and they're not photos"

My life will never be the same

Tumblr user nocryptographer: I talked with someone who works in book publishing, and they mentioned they get a lot of AI slop these days. I asked how they know what's human-written, and they said that there's one thing that will reveal AI slop without error, and that's the author not knowing their own creation. A real author can talk about their story for hours. They love to elaborate every character, every twist, every detail. Because those existed in their head long before they ever made it to the paper. They were loved before they were written. AI slop wasn't. It was just vomited into existence. Someone who generates their story with AI will never bond with their story the way real writers do. That's why they may not know what to say when they're asked why did the character do this, or even remember the scene in the first place. It's something they read, not something they wrote. And to a writer, those are not the same. There's a unique bond between the creator and the creation. If your writing doesn't come of you, you'll always lack that. I keep hearing soon we won't be able to tell. And perhaps, in a superficial sense, that's true. But there is a difference. It's not em dashes or repeated words. It's whether the story was made by someone who loves it and cares about it. If the writer's eyes light up when asked why did the character do that? and they start their very own Ted Talk about that specific scene... then it's real.

All of these look amazing!

2025 limited color fantasy pet portrait in a cramped guard house, one long haired black and white cat lounges near a wood stove, his boots and scarf barely off him and his coat hanging by the door. Another, grey and white, pulls on his outer coat and steps towards the door. their shack is full of yarn, leaves, mud, books and notices.

I love loafykins so much

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green turn to look at something in the sky with mild concern. Blue: What is that? A helium balloon? Green: No, it's floating downward, not up. Both foxes are startled, eyes wide, Blue still looking at the sky as Green already turns to flee. Blue: It's coming right at us! Green: Run! Instantly, the unindentified flying object, which is now revealed to be a bright red festive christmas hat, lands right on Green's head with great force and precision. Blue looks down to Green, who is now laying on th ground, the seasonal hat positioned right on his head. Blue: It's December first, isn't it? Green: Yep.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are casually sitting around. Green is reading a book, while Blue is making a series of various noises. Blue: Hik... Hik.. Snif, snif, krhm, hmh, krhm, hmh, burp, sigh Both foxes are mildly startled as a bright "ping!" noise is heard, and blue lights up, glowing around the edges. Both foxes look at Blue, puzzled. Blue: I think I hit some secret combo code by accident.

Just realized I actually played on SX v2-1 in person O.O

Thanks for everything, friends!

Don-chan from Taiko no Tatsujin laying on his back. Above him is the sentence "AAAAAAAAAAAAA"

yeah

Miss you too!

Yeah that is a good part, but tbh I don't trust a lot of things being said. Americans seem nice on the outside but a lot of it is not very sincere tbh.
(Doesn't mean your frienda are like this, I hope they're not!)
