Old comic from 2020 appears on Bluesky!
*stadium crowd cheering noise*
The awkward-winning Demon Bot Comic is here, with small adjustments and complete new art.
*crowd spontaneously breakdance*
And it's all free!
*It's for the exposure. That's what I'm apparently eating tonight*

There was, a few years ago, articles going around that men of poor upbringing preferred larger-breasted women, as if to compensate for lack of abundance, while those from richer upbringing tended to prefer flatter-breasts
Well...the implications aren't looking so good at the moment...

Reading comments, it's as if gamers and employees learned from the past 2 decades of gaming industry's culture in decline by being raped by shareholders' "values", and studio execs repeatedly being blind or gave up and want to retire with a quick cash out, by bringing in these types.

Tried using the portable rectangle screen device. Took a while to get used to the handling. Still uneasy to do anything more elaborate like full body postures.

Anyways, the whole "adulter" side of things with art is a subject I keep skirting around to, and it's not new and probably tiring. I'm not trying to, for example, tease with something before yanking the carpet. I express personal thoughts as they come, and go. End of the day: gotta pay the bills.

Now back to wanting to revive that dark fantasy dungeon comic. Not sure where to irregularly "publish" 18+ irregular online comics, without strictly being "porn" (but blodd-gore-full nudity can occur). Why don't I currently live in like, 70s-90s Italy or something?
It comes and goes though.

saw a blurb on instagram about an anime called Blue Comet SPT Layzner. Seems like something I might be interested in. Not that I expect much from 80s tv animes but it seems to have good art/animations at times and war treated as something bad rather than honorable.

idiots and moderation is part of why everything social on internet is crumbling. too many a-holes: they gotta come up with laws to protect you, but we don't want the intrusiveness, and so many of us it's expensive to supervise, so they need to use ai and...yeah. part of the big picture of why

I know soldier bees are typically male drones, but you can see by how she looks that this might not be too concerned about entomology rigor. Maybe she's Jeanne Dard (D'Arc)
