I think we’ve got better and more culturally-varied street food than I could have imagined, cool jackets galore, and drugs that make us think we’re really fast and strong before they kill us.
we're getting all the downsides of cyberpunk (social alienation, ruthless hyper capitalism, digital mass surveillance state) but none of the promised upsides (cheap street food, cool jackets, super drugs that make you really fast and strong before they kill you)

Please, let’s take care of our language. Don’t add “human” to “artist”. It should be understood by default. Doing so is ceding ground to AI slop-fckrs and buying into their narrative. Keep your guard up, chooms!
Human artists, use only once piece to convince people to follow you!

Have you copyrighted your brainrot today?

Confirmed. What’s more, as kids (I have a brother) we’d get attached to the fish, we fed it, petted it, shared our toys with it. And then on December 24th around 2 pm our father would sneak into the bathroom, and a minute later loud chopping with a cleaver could be heard from the kitchen.

The biggest tabloid in Poland recommends five comics, including our PRODUKT #25, with the headline: “They killed her at a party. She was only a few years old. Five gifts for the curious.”

My latest newsletter🇵🇱 is out after a three-month break thanks to a mix of life and work getting in the way. I do a little year-in-review, a little self-promo, and a little reminiscing. It’s been a busy, interesting year.

This iconic Fabian Todorovic cartoon is still one of the best I’ve seen at illustrating the remarkable amount of space we surrender to cars, leaving little space left for everyone and everything else. The text added later makes the bonus point that many drivers still manage to complain about it.

I bought the Switch on launch day in the spring of 2017 along with Breath of the Wild. I put a solid 60 hours into the game back then, but I didn’t finish it. I came back to it years later and completed the adventure. It’s certainly one of the best I’ve ever played 🥰
