This is solidarity!

An anime concert made its flyer art with generative AI, which led to Evangelion singer Yoko Takahashi pulling out of her planned guest performance:

I think the surest sign of Critic Brain is that I’d rather encounter something interestingly bad rather than predictably good. Let people enjoy things? Mister I won’t even let myself enjoy things

Lil' unused critters from Subnautica: Below Zero :) (MyArt)

How was your 3AM? I spent it listening for a faint whine that I was only half sure was imaginary because that half was blooming with mosquito saliva. I weighed the damage of sleep deprivation from time spent tracking it versus aerosol poison in my live-work space. Pride of the hunt won out.

I paid more than $20 for a haircut today. I accept myself exactly as I am. I respect myself. I tipped 25%.

I’m trying to #play with media for which I have no expectations or objectives. #pressedflowers had a lot of stories to share.

Dentist cleaning visits are an opportunity to remember that I don’t have to garrote my gumline with floss like someone put a hit on them.

I’m trying to squeeze everything and find I’m squeezing nothing.

Just in from the courtroom sketch artist.

I was sent the Phil McGraw-Netanyahu interview by a family member whose love language is misinformation. I made it about 9 minutes. It was like watching a physical in which the doctor repeats “How you holding up, champ?”, gently cradles the patient’s balls, and never asks them cough.

Happy May Day! My interview with the @cartoonistcoop.bsky.social hit print and digital at issuu.com/bostoncccompass/ today. Very proud to spread awareness of what our community can do together. #comics #cooperative #mayday

Bless “Brendan S” the Spotify user who put together a (mostly) chill playlist of only the gentle tracks from the LOTR/Hobbit movies. Only got blasted by brass a few times.

yeah… yeah? YEAH!!! I’m sorry to report that “Pigwizard” is no longer in business. After circling the building, I asked and learned they specialized in sausages. My mascot idea now sails off for The Undying Lands #lotr

Back after a long relocation, but I brought back some #dragons #wyvern #wyrm #williamblake

A mini-comic I made for my party members to celebrate the end of our first D&D campaign together. Come for horse puns, stay for the opaque inside jokes.

FYI, Squarespace is doing the same thing, something that I learned about on this here platform last month. But I wanted to highlight that again in case anyone missed it. Settings--> Crawlers --> toggle off Artificial Intelligence Crawlers A lot of these companies are sneaking this shit past us 😡

It’s kinda like #hostiledesign with less subterfuge.

What you gotta get somewhere so fast, Link? Turns out Zelda can hold off the Calamity for weeks while you upgrade armor sets. #comics #digitalcomics #zelda #breathofthewild #thefly #cronenberg #videogames

The paper I help publish has ended it’s 6th season of BCN Comics with guest curator Comics In Color, a great Boston-based org that expands the platform for comics by and about people of color. It’s been a great six months! #newspapercomics #bostonartists #comics #indiecomics #comicstrips #comicart

November “Rabbit, rabbit!” “Rabbit, portrait!” but she’s actually a hare. Boy, was I happy to learn I had one of these in backlog! #chicory #digitalart #rabbit #yotr #yotr2023 #rabbitrabbit
