Please don't let this fly under the radar, creatives. This is a troubling trajectory. (NSPM-7) Also NZ, we don't need this either

Please let 2027 be the year that the trend of "...what if we made it objectively worse?" goes away

So its becoming very clear to me that I am dealing with long COVID symptoms that are prolonged and interfere with daily life. I struggle to think clearly, word recall is occasionally difficult and there's a lot of general exhaustion / apathy.

I’ve almost got rent all covered— just looking for about 5 hours to finish it off!! If anyone wanted to grab that whole hour chunk I’d add a thank you bonus hour to make it 6. Thank you for reading!!

I'm still open and looking for lots of work hours by the way! Hoping to get 20-30 in total for this month so I can pay for upcoming rent, don't hesitate to give me a holler if you have art ideas you'd like me to take a whack at! And thank you again for sharing and boosting!

Reincarnation

What does it imply to feel "trapped" in your body. What on earth is that sensation, what yearns to be free from the matter and multitudinous cells of its own animal self? Is it the same being present in the morning before it remembers the mundane burdens?

Reincarnation

Seeing that centaur robot, I really hope our creature designs don't just become something tech bros can base robots off and make exploitative profits or weapons named after Lord of the Rings plot devices. Ugh. Why do they ruin literally everything.

"As Japanese financial newspaper Nikkei Asia found in a recent investigation, just five US tech giants — Alphabet, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, and Oracle — are hiding an estimated $1.65 trillion in debt that doesn’t appear on balance sheets. futurism.com/artificial-i...

Increasingly looking like AI companies are banking on a bailout while the rest of the ship goes down.

Pretty sad watching AI companies desperately searching for creative and innovative use cases for their technology, while simultaneously squandering the future of the human creatives that are the crucial ingredient in imagining said innovations. Reap what you sow.

Silly idea: Rescue service like Thunderbirds but it's using technology to help furry characters from kink dilemmas. Goo monster cleanup, macro infrastructure repair, dragon vore rescue, transformation counseling and assistance, transport and logistics for size related challenges... You name it!

Hi all! Kira has been progressively getting worse since discharge, and as I am out of all options financially I have opened a Gofundme as a few have suggested to do. Please share if you can, and thank you so much if you are able to help! (All info on the fundme page) gofund.me/cba3a7bb1

"we're getting inquiries from the department of defense..." Well, it's decided, i am not going to be keeping my job, I'm sure as hell not building tech for the department of WAR. Time to start looking for an ethical change for the latter part of my life, I'm so ready for something new and better.

I have a few new pages coming but I will not post until I'm satisfied that it will break brains.

Occasionally I see a piece of art that has a very specific influence from cartoons in the past that obviously rewired the artists' brain at the time and it still gives me a chuckle knowing what must've happened. Makes me wonder what stuff is being made today that is crossing neural wires!

There is a lot of content and artists I could work / draw with, but I have to say I've been glad to just hold back and watch things develop without any more involvement in particular spaces. Some things I did participate in early on now have momentum and it's interesting to see the snowball effect.

Platforms please please PLEASE, bring back the option to dislike / downvote, turn off reskeets / I don't like this / show fewer! I swear everything became terrible when the only option was to passively accept autoslop.

Sorry all, had the flu this week, sleep issues and commutes have been brutal in the bad weather (2hrs+), hoping things even out. Still got comic pages in the works ofc.

Orcaella! Finished her yesterday. Rather proud of it. I might not be ur usual engineer-brained, but if u give me a whole aircraft as a canvas, I for sure can do something with it. Also, Open Rotor Fans!!!!

Sorry everyone, but listening to multimillionaires complain about the poor and laying blame on the progressive really sets me off. I'm so tired of this, at least I got them to agree that trillionaires are not enviable.

I hate having to explain to people why I can't travel to the states, as if it's my job to rationalise why I still would rather be a compassionate human being and not be enthusiastic for the tech industry in its current state of metastasis. Oh sure I'll just drop all my ethics and start rolling coal!

"some breakdowns are breakthroughs" oof felt that one

I often think about how a lot of us will never be the ones to save the world but the smallest of our choices might result in helping along those that might!
