My commissions are open! Right now I'm saving towards getting an Actual PC to replace the declining potato of a laptop that I'm currently using.

Payment is accepted through ko.fi, and you can get a hold of me on Discord at Pinkangel725.

ChatGPT is just your cell phone’s auto-complete feature hooked up to a warehouse sized server farm so it passes the Turing Test.

It is not, never has been, and never will be intelligent in any way.

The only thing ChatGPT ever does.
Andrew Kadel @DrewKadel@social.coop My daughter, who's had a degree in computer science for 25 years, posted this about ChatGPT on Facebook. It's the best description I've seen. Something that seems fundamental to me about ChatGPT, which gets lost over and over again: When you enter text into it, you're asking "What would a response to this sound like?" If you put in a scientific question, and it comes back with a response citing a non-existent paper with a plausible title, using a real journal name and an author name who's written things related to your question, it's not being tricky or telling lies or doing anything at all surprising! This is what a response to that question would sound like! It did the thing! But people keep wanting the "say something that sounds like an answer" machine to be doing something else, and believing it *is* doing something else. It's good at generating things that sound like responses to being told it was wrong, so people think that it's engaging in introspection or looking up more information or something, but it's not, it's only, ever, saying something that sounds like the next bit of the conversation.

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

Help defeat H.R. 3492 and defend trans kids. Marjorie Taylor Greene's "Protect CHildren's Innocence Act" is up for a vote on December 17.

Every call, interaction, and donation shows Congress that we stand with trans youth!

I'm begging any artists still using Twitter claiming it's integral to their work to just leave. It's been revealed the site works off a made up "credit score" from hell and punishes you for posting like a normal human being.

Abandon Twitter for good. It's time. It's been time.
A quoted tweet from a user named Sam that reads: "How Twitter is rigged Type in all caps because you're excited? Lowers your reputation. Include links? Your score goes down. It's like the Credit Score system from Hell. And given Cisgender is treated as a slur & MAGA boosted, you can guess what's categorized as 'offensive'" The tweet they quoted is from user SADIQ and reads: "Tweepcred is X's reputation system Based on your behavior, you get a tweepcred score It determines your reach Break the algo rules, you score goes down and your reach disappears What are the rules of the X algo tho? Glad you asked." SADIQ includes a photo of Twitter's algorithm code that calculates a user's reputation. SADIQ continues: "Post 'offensive text'? 80% reach reduction Offensive username? 80% reach reduction All caps tweet? That's seen as 'shouting. Major penalization. Include links? Yup, penalized"

A little thing I made for @cobalt-draws.bsky.social of their character Alphonse "Allie" Tunabone Jr. Because I was instantly enamored with this little kitten. She's dressed as one of the characters that inspired her; Princess Morebucks from PPG!

I still keep a ton of stuffed animals myself and a few years ago I started making small plushies for my nieces and nephew from recycled fabrics. And gosh, it is always SO gratifying to see the looks on their faces when they open presents and I get to see the way their expressions just light up
kaaauthor.bsky.social Katherine Applegate @kaaauthor.bsky.social · Nov 28
I've always had a soft spot for stuffed animals. 🧸🧵

I wrote about this for @scarymommy.com around the time my novel POCKET BEAR came out. If you're curious about my inspiration for the book (or just a fellow plushie enthusiast), I hope you'll take a look. 💛

This one is a personal piece that I did last month, with one of my OCs dressed up as Pit from Kid Icarus: Uprising for Halloween!

#art #OC #fantasy
A winged girl in midair, one knee raised and the opposite arm outstretched. On wing is fully spread while the other is half folded. The girl's hair and feathers are bright orange, and quills emerge from where her ears would otherwise be. Her wings and tail are banded with bars of darker orange and bright yellow, and most of the feathers have a bright yellow spot near the ends. The girl is wearing a white mask with a smile and eyes that resemble skewed half circles. She also wears an outfit resembling that of Pit from Kid Icarus: Uprising. There are gold rimmed gloves on her hands and a golden band on her left upper arm and right thigh. She wears a short, white, one shouldered chiton with a patterned red and gold trim at the bottom hem, fastened over her right shoulder with gold fibula with a red gem set in the center. A black undershirt is just visible under the chiton. A belt trimmed in silver and gold around her waist hold the chiton in place, and black shorts are visible below the hem. She also wears sandals decorated with beige bands and trimmed at the top with wool.

Another commission, this time for @meskills.bsky.social , also known as NanaHugs on Twitch! (www.twitch.tv/nanahugs) I wanted to mimic a Don't Starve style with this one since Nana primarily streams that. I'm pleased with how it turned out.

#art #commission #Don'tStarve #DST #Don'tStarveTogether
A Don't Starve style portrait of the Twitch streamer NanaHugs and her cat George. The colors are all muted, as is common in Don't Starve portaits. Nana is wearing a blush hued dress with an ornamented red band around the waist and puffy red sleeves resembling rose buds. Her glasses have rose-shaped ornaments similar to the ornament at her waist. Nana is facing forward at an angle towards the left. Her head faces the opposite direction, and one hand grips her dress while the other holds a Rose Skinned Fire Staff. She is smiling open mouthed, darker red lipstick on her upper lip, and she stares down at the staff in her hand. Behind her to the left George peeks out over the border of the portrait, his paws resting on the frame as though for support. He is a brown tabby with faintly glowing white eyes that look straight ahead at the viewer. He is wearing a leafy green capelet with an ornament resembling a rose bud. It is intended to be a bell. The background of the portrait is a greyscale scene of thorns and rose bushes. There is an off-white border around both Nana and George to help them stand out better against the background.

Recently I finally figured out my fursona after YEARS of indecision. Really happy with how it turned out!

#furry #art #flamingo #phoenix
A ref sheet of a bird fursona, a flamingo phoenix. It shows a front view, a profile view, and a back view on a light blue background. Her main plumage is hot pink, and her flight feathers and the tip of her tail and crest are an orange to red-orange gradient. Her legs and beak are a softer shade of pink, and the end of her beak is grey. She has golden eyes and a pair of heart shaped glasses. She wears a frilled, sky-blue crop top with horizontal yellow stripes, blue denim shorts, and socks with a hole at the heel that match her shirt. On her right leg is an anklet of soft blue and pink beads. In the bottom right corner there's an image of the profile view of the head, with a large yellow arrow pointing to a profile view with the crest raised, looking akin to that of a cockatoo, while the pupils are starry, to show that her crest is mobile. Beside that the bottom is a blurb of text within a square with a hot pink border. The text reads as follows: Pink A flamingo Phoenix with too much time on her hands. She sometimes streams for fun. Loves making bad puns. Ask her about birds. (At your own risk)

Two commissions I did for @catgirlpeaches.bsky.social ! Had a lot of fun with these two!

#catgirl #art #commission
A satyr witch. She has green, goat-like eyes and brown hair and brown furred legs, with skin that fades from a softer tan to beige. She is wearing a simple black dress, a belt with potions and a pouch on it, short grey cloak, and brown leather bracers. She is waving with one hand and holding a staff in the other. A green-eyed calico cat girl in a seated position, facing the camera with a grin and double peace signs. Her tail is long, and mostly reddish-brown and black. Her legs and arms are furred with calico patches, and her ears and hair watch. She is wearing a soft, frilly cream blouse under a tan coat and a pale brown plaid skirt over frilled cream leggings. She has gold bracelets on one arm and a cloth bracelet that matches her skirt on the other. On her ankles are two lacy accessories.
