Heartbreaking words from Dr. STONE mangaka Boichi, who decided to stop posting art on X because of the implementation of the GenAI Edit button
and who has been so distressed by its hostile, destructive purpose to destroy other artists' works that he hasn't been able to eat properly since Christmas😢

Heads up to artists still using Twitter- Twitter is now adding an "Edit image" button under all images posted on the site that allows everyone to feed it into genAI and modify it as they wish with a prompt

Bari’s complaint was “there’s nothing new here” and while that’s untrue it’s also irrelevant
“we intentionally sent people to be tortured in a hellhole and bragged about it and The Hague is too good for everyone involved” is a story that simply cannot be told enough

spotted an ad for a maker's market at the industrial port ass-edge of Osaka and, as avid craft fair goers, we had to check it out.
like comiket for potters and knitters and muffin makers.
not a single IP in sight (incredible!!), tons of alt people, and basically no sweaty tourists! ...except us!

first crawled through the Buddha's nostril pillar hole in Todaiji back in 2008
Did it again today, 17 years later, as haters and doubters looked on. Have now escaped reincarnation a second time. Reupped my nirvana subscription.

wish I could say that the fugu for a buck-twenty equivalent at the chain sushi was worth it.

final pattern I bought from this creator (Emberloom on etsy) was the Fingercreeper
much bigger than expected! (large banana for scale)
each of the 12 fingers has a wire core, for slight posability. My customizations were the red cuticles and back-of-hand warts
