Having fun messing around in my sketchbook this week! I brought a really weird selection of pens and like two markers, so not much colour will appear, but I can noodle with the pens to my hearts content.

I don't like algos, never have. Social media every day should be like making a mixtape for all your friends. You're sending their timeline all the best stuff you come across. We curate for each other and for ourselves rather than letting bossy bots call the shots.

Check out all these cool webcomic creators~ 👀

If any of you who follow me are Toronto based, there's a petition to give TTC priority at intersections! Please consider signing, it'll go far to help the public transit issues and car congestion in the city! www.ttcriders.ca/greenlight?r...

Merry crisis, here’s a new ingress page: www.ingress-comic.com/comic/chapte...

Essentially, I think that LLM-generated dialogue only makes sense if you believe that the product of writing is words. But the product of writing isn't words, any more than the product of justice is prisoners, or the product of love is weddings. The product of writing is meaning.

i dont remember if i ever posted this to bsky actually

#meetthewebcomic Better late than never? Rated 17+, The Guide to a Healthy Relationship is a dark human drama about abuse, illness, and the struggles of recovery. The story follows Julian, a short-tempered short stack and Apollo, a dumbass with good intentions. linktr.ee/CoppertheCar...

Doodling!

anyway in honor of new arcadion tier i post this again

I've updated my Masterlist of Printers-- it's been a long time coming (last edit was in 2021??), so there are a bunch of changes, and you can check it out here: screentonescast.com/view/66 If anything is missing from the list, or should be updated, let me know!

⭐⭐⭐⭐ Loved this. I hope Rian Johnson keeps getting the opportunity to make these films. Glenn Close is SO, SO amazing as always. And Josh Brolin has completed his transformation into 1998 Jeff Bridges.

LRT: I finished Final Fantasy Tactics for the first time just a couple of weeks ago and enjoyed it greatly-- and especially enjoyed having new context for a lot of the stuff that shows up in the FFXIV raids XD (music, characters and settings, etc)

I specifically had to frame it in terms of breaking customers’ trust. If a customer sees a corp’s AI photo/video, and clocks it as fake, they can’t trust that the company’s services actually provide real results either. They feel lied to, and won’t buy (Which *should* seem obvious from jump, but 🤷)

ok I've seen at least 2 takes on Zenos drawn with the reaper scythe but, what about my man Estinien.......

Idk if I've got much in the way of new responses in me (I suspect that most stuff I could say on these subjects, I've already said on an episode of @screentonescast.bsky.social at some point), but: ask away! ... if you dare 😈

I'm gonna take this moment to shout out at my friends and peers who create the amazing @screentonescast.bsky.social together, a place FULL of resources to help ANYONE learn to create comics- we mean it! If you want to learn to create, we want to help! It is 100% authentic human made work!

I'm so honoured to announce that Corpse de Ballet is a Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection!

'Tis the season!!

My library hold arrived!!!! [sprints for the door]

also, I'm getting a restock of these stickers, since I seem to have run out completely at Hal-Con... guess that means I need more!

I picked up book 1 of Naomi Novik's Scholomance series at the library the other day, and I couldn't put it down.... the first thing I did when I finished it was to put books 2 and 3 on hold, and now I'm checking the library site daily to see when they'll come in XD Seriously addictive!

Oh yeah, also Wychwood updated yesterday! www.wychwoodcomic.com

The snow is very pretty but I guess it means I can't bike for my commute tomorrow... woe

If you're a Canadian who lived outside of Quebec and purchased bread from Loblaw's between 2001 and 2021, you can get compensation AND stick it to the Westons if you submit a claim before December 12th. www.canadianbreadsettlement.ca

It's taking awhile, but I am trying to update the paintings portfolio/directory over on my hub site..... someday I will make sure every listing is up to date, someday... sevensmith.net/paintings

Canada made weird tv shows because it was all being done with government funded art grant money so they fell in this wacky middle ground between “shoestring budget” and “no expectation to generate shareholder value” which is really the best way to make art

Oh yeah, to celebrate my exciting discovery about reasonable shipping rates, I've made a discount code on my Bigcartel! varethane.bigcartel.com BLACKFRIDAY for 20% off.

I'm really glad I figured out a way I can ship books to the US properly for not-insane rates, but...... a condition of this is that everything needs to have some sort of "made in Canada" label on it. So I guess I will be printing off a sheet of those and sticking them inside the covers of my books.

I forget that TVTropes is a neat way to discover other stories, and that there is an entry for my comic on there by some folks ! If anyone wants to have fun poking around on it too, go right ahead 👀 tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwik...
