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*

All this technology will do is get more people with little creative vision make even bigger calls, rise up to roles of decision-taker without the insight necessary to be there. It's often a problem in productions, and these quick-image tech is going to exacerbate it.

5 years ago I would get delicious, well prepared, nutritious burgers with fresh ingredients, fries and a can of cola, for 10 bucks downtown.
Now, I get a cheaply thrown together ketchup-industrial-slop of a "quarter-pounder" at McD's, with a measly portion of fries, fountain cola syrup, for $5 more.

Would love to see a return of Otaku no Video, drawn in a amateur studio way, try to gather the old gang, and make it about the "OtaKings" and friends dropping in current times, and their reaction to it, with, of course, other hidden ID interviews of the shameful lives of anime obsessed otakus.

We older North American geeks had to go through the trenches of unpopularity and obscurity so that you may, now, have access to manga and anime in the most casual way XD

Scrolling through Youtube and holy whompamolly AI cover Ai cover AI cover etc etc. It's over man. It's over. The faceless random bot deluge has begone and is well underway. So dystopic. Like a wall. A digital wall from humane communication. online.

Gonna have to learn to draw in my style, with a lot less stiffness, when doing professional polished work.
"this" isn't my style, but damn if it doesn't often look that way whenever I'm put in this situation, adapting others' characters

Part of me's feeling that, I AM, after all, made for comic books. But it's a lot of work.
I'll need to go on a quest for the perfect digital inking brush on CSP.
Also, can't see how I could have a romantic partner while having such a "job". Needs someone who totally gets it and might be involved.

I really would like a device with all the games from before playstation, on it. All of em. Licensors and copyright holders can't get their shit together so let's just skip that part. Here. The DEFAULT retro gaming device. Heck give it to every child to start them on their gaming addiction path.
