summing up my new book: nonbinary fox barista deals with shit from two gays: one hapless human & one butterfly immortal (thankfully there is a third, emotional support twink) while trying to run the family cafe. there's jokes. there's a silly small dragon. there's twink obliteration.

New York Magazine@nymag.com · 2d agoA generation of retirees are spending more time than ever on their slop-filled, scam-riddled feeds. It has become their adult children’s job to save them.
The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...
heard an add for a "generate your own comic" scam site how about all these ppl fucking die already
I somehow missed this when @anthonymoser.com published it last year. It's SO GOOD: "Because the makers of AI aren’t damned by their failures, they’re damned by their goals. They want to build a genie to grant them wishes, and their wish is that nobody ever has to make art again."
I Am An AI Hater
I am an AI hater. This is considered rude, but I do not care, because I am a hater.

"i wanna write a cozy fantasy like" -cites high emotional stakes children's media that if you are the intended age group-- a literal child-- is dark & kind of fucked up-- but bc you're an adult with more distance you see it as just a little dark & cutesy this makes me insane btw

Happy Belated Birthday to Shu~! His Japanese motion actor, Natsuki Osaki did a birthday stream for his character, which was very fun with inside jokes, and I really like how manga Shu is drawn, so I wanted to draw various Shu

i love the aztecs. they took "i want that twink obliterated" to new heights. inspiring
![During the 20-day month of Toxcatl, a young impersonator of Tezcatlipoca would be
sacrificed. Throughout a year, this youth would be dressed as Tezcatlipoca and treated as a living incarnation of the god. The youth would represent Tezcatlipoca on earth; he would get four beautiful women as his companions until he was killed. In the meantime he walked through the streets of Tenochtitlan playing a flute. On the day of the sacrifice, a feast would be held in Tezcatlipoca's honor. The young man would climb the pyramid, break his flute and surrender his body to the priests. Sahagún compared it to the Christian Easter. 45]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ymipjgi2ebiptelhrw6zezas/bafkreih3t2iwyj6xftr3tsh44ml5dway4wuedw7s7jla2z75vcxkqdm46y)
Sometimes the Aztecs gave their little sacrificial knife-dudes fur coats and other fabulous accoutrements!
also love to find intersections in the ancient world-- pre columbian grasshopper jade & the chinese bronze age silkworm & cicada jades.
