The phrase Hot widows in your area but widows and area are crossed out and have the words Artists and Internet overlayed in red so it reads Hot Artists in your Internet.

This comment might sound less braindead in German or Japanese but in English it's so incredibly stupid that BlueSky is convinced it needs a translation. I hope it's better over there but a single guy with a magnifying glass and a deerstalker cap would have a better clear rate than the 90% of the US.
The above comment with the word Translate in blue.

My custom ReTHAWed tag.
A 256x256 image intended to look like stencil based graffiti, it features a crude skull in front of a purple swirling void flanked by red lightning bolts with the word "Primus" on the top and "Rules!" on the bottom.

A picture of me smiling in the sun taken earlier today. My mcsqueeb is a vibrant blue green with undyed brown sides. My goatee is fluffy and my glasses are starting to slide down my nose. Edited using Ibis Paint X and Snapseed. A picture of me looking ever so slightly unhinged taken outside earlier today. It's edited to add film grain, vignetting and, light leaks as if it was taken on a very bad film camera although I definitely exaggerated it I also added a little extra red to the dark colors and a little extra blue to the light colors to add a subtle unease, it has the side effect of making the sky look slightly nicer. Edited using Ibis Paint X and Snapseed. The same photo of me looking mentally unwell with layers and layers of effects to make it appear to be digitized into a malfunctioning EGA color space computer. I also used the apps built in CRT filter although I had to take it separately into my art program and add it back to the underlying image to get it to do what I wanted. Edited using Ibis Paint X, Snapseed and 8Bit Photo Lab Pro by Ilixa.

Took about half an hour to make myself a new Discord avatar.
My logo Zombie Kaleb (a circle with cartoon X eyes,a flatline mouth stitched shut and, my blue green McSqueeb which is a floppy un-gelled mohawk) surrounded by a red squared spiral. This is rendered in a style intended to look like a neon sign.

#makeaterriblecomicday2025 spent just over an hour on this.
A three panel comic named "Shooty McBangbang" by me Kaleb Mayhew. In the first panel a poorly drawn man with four teeth and a cowboy-ish hat says "Theys call me shooty!" In the next panel he's a little closer and exclaims his full name "Shooty McBangbang!" In the third we see his whole body, he has 2 pistols in shoulder holsters, 2 more on his belt and, a fifth pistol in his hand, the stock of a long gun peeks over his shoulder he says "Never did figure out why!"

Went out and did that thingy today!
Large bearded man sporting glasses and a blue green mcsqueeb haircut. He's wearing an oversized bead chain necklace layered over a thin steel and gold twisted chain with a steel pendant shaped like a Thompson submachine gun (specifically a model of 1921) and an I Voted sticker.

4 Games I love.
Poster for 1993's DOOM, more specifically it's 1995 update THE ULTIMATE DOOM. A space marine is standing on a small peak in hell, his green uniform ripped on the thigh and stomach. Demons flock him on all sides, one looks directly at the camera it's canine like muzzle sneering in mockery of a human smile. Our hero is firing a submachine gun, hitting a demon in the head. Box art for the American release of Tony Hawk's Underground for the PlayStation 2. A man is facing away from the camera, he's on a skateboard pushing away as quickly as he can from the brick wall in the foreground. On the wall can be seen a spray painted outline of a skateboarder in mid kickflip or heelflip, it appears as if they froze in midair to be used as a living stencil. Other graffiti is also on the wall. The image is black and white other than the game's title and the Neversoft logo. Poster for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. A runic symbol sits on a distressed white background, this background features small rips and a border on both the bottom and the top. Poster for Red Dead Redemption. John Marshton, A man with shoulder length dark brown hair and a short beard points a sawed off double barrel shotgun directly to the right of the audience. His beard and arm feature old scars, he wears a fully stocked bandelaro across his chest. He's the only thing in the frame that isn't a shade of red other than the words ROCKSTAR GAMES RED DEAD REDEMPTION™ which are in the Chinese Rocks font, a font inspired by hand carved ink stamps commonly used in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries for imported goods. The red background features the silhouettes of 5 men on horseback, some of them where cowboy hats and many of them have revolvers, on the right and the distressed stars of an American flag on the left.
