Miss seeing so many peeps so am following the migration from Twitter to Bluesky. 🦄 Once a lurker always a lurker but at least I can see friendly faces, catch up on normal things, and not have what I want to see steamrolled by algorithms.

heads up that bluesky doesnt show posts from other languages by default on your timeline, and its cutting you off from a lot of the community
go to bsky.app/settings/lan... and deselect any language from this setting, or else you might not see any of the new japanese users at all!

Favorite amigurumi pattern reviews: "3/5 stars: The pattern is well-written with great pics on putting it all together but the results look just okay and not like the pic, though I didn't follow some of the instructions and didn't the suggested yarn or hook. Too bad it doesn't look better."

Obviously, this is amazing BUT the thing I love most, is that it's directly poking fun at the desire/fetish to overanimate overlapping action & smears.
Asking someone of James Baxter's calibre to *intentionally* do this (as well as mess up the spacing on a bounce) is funny in the nerdiest way.

My spouse almost set his coffee mug down on my scanning desk amid a pile of books, I gasped, stopped him, & I slapped my computer desk & said "this one's fine, this is where I take risks!" which lol I meant drinks but it sounds so douchy-Linkedin. We cracked up

I think this piece is incredible. For some reason basically every piece of art of Link running out into the stormy night is always one of any artist's bests.

Post detailing where Stickerapp now uses AI to "fix" the art on a sticker. So disappointing.
Circled the places it's melting and hallucinating- the hand melting into the background, the hair bits that are repeated and hallucinated
The top image is the exact file I submitted, it's very frustrating
Also note the entire texture over the black areas on the top. It's basically been erased

This "Where's Waldo" style #Mario art that's inside Shogaku Ichinensei's 1992 June issue is SO CUTE!
I just got this one today and fixed this spread up while I was making 2400dpi scans of other art. I'll try to get the large scans uploaded to archive.org/details/@its... soon. #Nintendo
