Seems like we're off to a good start...

I mean… considering that narcoterrorism isn’t actually a thing and this administration just made it up to justify itself… it sure seems illegal

It’s being called “slop” because it’s low quality, low effort, thoughtless, soulless, drivel that’s being slopped over every corner of the internet making it increasingly difficult to find things of actual quality. We’re sick of seeing it so calling it “slop” is justified.

It should be pointed out that LLMs are not designed to analyze their own operation. They are only designed to generate a believable response. There may not actually be any safeguards for this. If there are, there might not be any work being done to improve them. Everything it says is suspect.

Well, that's totally mortifying. Something about that pencil was bugging me, and I just realized I bumped it while adjusting layers and it was wildly uncentred.

Later guys - my ride's here.

In the mid-2000s, I colored an AvP book for Dark Horse. It was going to be printed on extremely absorbent paper. This was the first time I meticulously calibrated my monitor so I could “soft proof” the color as I went. Then the book came out printed on glossy paper instead and it looked awful!

Hey! I got it working! Only took me all day!

I was hoping that a Komga server would be as simple and intuitive to set up as a Plex server. It is not 😭

How I'm walking out of 2025

I’ve been playing Silent Hill F (a Christmas gift) today on this snowy day. I don’t know anything about this game, so far I like it but seems to be related to the franchise in name only

The pre-new year blizzard has begun. It’s supposed to snow like this all day and through the night.

Alien! Which I really should be shooting via Alien: Rogue Incursion. I bought it on sale and... still haven't played. It's installed.

Now if we can just de-train twitter people from the aversion to hashtags I know twitter punishes you so badly for using any that aren't trending at that current moment, but they're very useful here on bsky, you can search by user, so tagging your art is encouraged

Billionaires have set up this game where they have everything, while workers compete for the scraps. But what if we stopped competing. What if we worked as a team and changed the game so everyone has what they need.

Things are Terrible, but this isn't. Be weird.

Hello new folks! This is, as ever, my whole deal!

I was trying to think of one for From Russia With Love, but that one already sounds casual

Still thinking about this show. It kinda suggests that the baby in it actually may be baby Jesus. But the baby just causes chaos constantly, which suggests that baby Jesus was a chaos god.

My dog IS NOT spoiled!

Happy Holidays, everyone!! I'll take the opportunity to share this starter pack full of my amazing fellow colorists!

Oreo, my parents’ cat, sure enjoyed our Christmas Eve gathering this morning.

And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, is the Chosen One. She alone will stand against the vampires, the demons, and the forces of darkness. She is the Slayer.

Just watched Man vs Baby on Netflix. This put my anxiety into high gear.

Anyone know what this is from?

I was just browsing the Nintendo Switch shop (first time in quite awhile) and decided to see what they had for sims. Is it just me or is this just a bunch of Ai slop?

Wearing Red in December isn't just for Saint. Nick! You know what they say. Nothing bad happens to #RedShirts. Join #Starfleet in it's coveted division of security. #StarTrekRedShirts is in comic shops! #JoinUs #StarTrek #Requirement

Ai Chuds: Don’t use my prompts! You’re stealing my work! People with actual creative skills: Here’s a whole list of prompts, we should all make art from these all month long! Art is the result of the process, not the idea. Prompts are not creative works.

Every now and then Gregory (my dog) sneaks in and leaves me one of his toys

Looks like the “cool, scrappy underdogs” (to quote Ensign Beckett Mariner) just came out on top! Thanks to @timsheridan.bsky.social @heatherantos.bsky.social @sercas.bsky.social @charliekirchoff.com @claytoncowles.bsky.social @idwpublishing.com and YOU! 🖖❤️

God that’s so good!

I recently learned about a study that looked at the effects of Ai on creativity. They had two groups, both were supposed to write an essay. One group used Google to find actual websites for sources to research it and the other used ChatGPT…

I just received a package and the shipping label said it was from “Hide Your Booze” I got excited until I opened it and it was just the comic book backing boards that I ordered 😒

Relax, that’s just Stephen Miller

It’s yer boy vecna!

I don't care what anyone says, I like that movie

A R G H!

Oh, and...

Can we please start typing “Ai” instead of “AI”? Because every once in awhile, someone is talking about Al and I get confused thinking they’re talking about Ai. Or someone says “That’s some weird AI” and I think “Yankovic?”

I haven’t read the article but I’ll go out on a limb and say that you’re not going to get new ideas from the plagiarization machine.

I fully support this [context: B'wana Beast]

Woke up to this shocking and sad news. Don’t know what to say except that Rob Reiner always seemed like one of the good ones.

If you see this, post a comics cover you love.
