It seems like a good time to talk about supporting human artists, so let me show you the beauty that came in the mail today
The cover of The Art of kelogsloops from Sketch to Finish, being held by a barely visible hand. Thickness not shown (it’s thick!), bonus stuff not shown (they’re gorgeous!)

“You will be visited by three spirits.”

The spirits:
Kwanza Bot, Robot Santa, and the Hanukkah Zombie

Found it:
Woman sitting in a gloomy snowy landscape, looking up in exhaustion or possibly contemplation. Behind a snow mound in the background, shapes of 3 or more wolves seem to be approaching. The scene is lit by a dim star above the woman (or possibly it’s a very dim moon or sun behind a cloud curtain). The painting is called Woman in the Wilderness (Femme dans le désert), by Alfons Mucha, 1923. It’s possible that this is not meant to be snow at all, but I’m writing the alt text, so my interpretation goes.

@bsky.app is something broken with this feed? I’m pretty sure it is misbehaving.

Hello Bluesky, does anyone know who the author of this comic is? Presumably “LG”
4-panel comic with a young woman and a nosfetatu-looking, red-eyed, slightly dorky Count Dracula. PANEL 1: Woman holding a card: “Draculaaa! What a cute Valentine card! This was so thoughtful!” Dracula: “Well, it’s the thought that counts” PANEL 2: Dracula: “And it’s the count…” — *wink* PANEL 3: Dracula: “…that thoughts” PANEL 4: Dracula: “Thinks. Dang it!” The comic is signed “LG” (Punctuation added to try and emulate the effect of the speech bubbles.)

I guess AI is not ready for big questions.
Screenshot of a chat I had with Lufthansa Chat Assistant, since I did not want to go to chatGPT and boost its illusions of self-importance. Besides, who said other chatbots can’t offer answers to the big questions? Anyway, the aforementioned chat goes as follows: “Hi, Elisa” [Elisa is the chat assistant’s name, I was told in an introductory text not shown here] “Hello!” “Do you think the Catholic church can modernise itself without losing its legitimacy? Or is that a paradox?” “Either this topic is outside of my expertise, or I’m having difficulties understanding how I can help you. Below, you can find some of the most popular topics to continue with.If you don’t find your topic, feel free to type in your question or connect with my human colleagues via Live Chat.” Underneath there is a button showing: “Rebook my flight” Is that a metaphor on the human condition faced with questions of religion, secularism, and the unavoidable legacy of one’s own background? Does it have relate to the relevance of the church to modern issues? Is Elisa trying to lead me to a certain path she is perhaps unwilling or forbidden to address directly? Does her off-handed mention to “feel free” hide any meaning? None of that is shown in the screenshot (apparently). Lastly, a field stating “Please type here…” that seems empty and pointless at this stage.
