Stage 1: Cute, snuggly foreplay
Stage 2: The basics
Stage 3: The basics but weirder
Stage 4: Monsterfucking
Stage 5: Dear god this can never be shown to anyone

Created for the Vampires of Color charity zine. This one was sitting in my WIPs for a long time. As I was thinking about what other vampires exist in my world. I started thinking about sun dwelling vampires... Added a bunch of colors by accident but they stuck!

ever since I learned about three-cueing I've developed infinitely more patience for replies on social media. mfers literally do not know how to read. people are walking around conjuring random meanings into words they don't know, and they don't know a lot of words. it's crazy

When you say you need good art to make comics and that's why you need generative ai, it signals to me the narrowness of your understanding of comics and why it is that you think you can't make them

Always ask artists for permission rather than forgiveness because we have really long memories and a bottomless capacity for both incredible generosity and incredible pettiness.
Welp. Just discovered that someone is putting out a paid collection --over 200 pages-- that looks to be a Spanish language history of Garfield parody comics that may contain some of my work.
While part of me is flattered, my permission was never asked.

Using genAI even as placeholders will immediately evoke a "sus" feel to any campaign. Because even if you replace it with human made art later on, it will always leave a suspicion of using genAI for the project. Be it in the writing or other "less noticeable" areas.
No, using AI generated stuff as a "placeholder" on your crowdfunding campaign is not OK either.
If the visuals are THAT important to getting your project funded, then you need to pay a person up front for those key visuals and deliver a consistent end product to your backers.

ever incredible how people use the images/words of someone not with us anymore like David Lynch to "show support" + "mourn" while conveniently skipping over *his own words* about why his health was declining, why he masked in public and why he retreated from society.

The problem with “it’s not a choice” as the core of a defense, whether of being transgender or simply being fat, is the frequency of an implicit underlying “because nobody would ever want to be like this,” which is simply not true in either case.

Once again, I cannot draw a couple pose to save my life, but I apparently can draw two characters convincingly restraining a third character. Bruh. This is getting sad.
