People like Zuck will build data centers the size of the entire world beyond their back yards if we let them.
Disco Elysium screenshot. The Deserter says: The mask of humanity fall from capital. It has to take it off to kill everyone- everything you love; all the hope and tenderness in the world. It has to take it off, just for one second. To do the deed. And then you see it. As it strangles and beats your friends to death... the sweetest, most courageous people in the world. He's silent for a second. You see the fear and power in its eyes. Then you know. You say: What? The Deserter says: That the bourgeois are not human.

Whenever I'm feeling a bit too cynical and irony poisoned about the people around me, I go back to this quote as a reminder...

Lots of people annoy me in petty ways- I'm sure lots of things I do and say annoy people all the time too, but you can't let the stupid little grievances consume you.
TOO OFTEN THESE DAYS I find myself in the position of defending someone I think is annoying from someone I know is dangerous.

I feel like her and FF16 were definitely animated by sickos and this is the only good use of AAA graphics

A finished illustration of a scene from Absentia's yet to be announced TTRPG. A wide landscape illustration depicting a lake surrounded by enormous golden-leafed oak trees and dotted with lily pads on the water's surface. Beams of light shine down on a group of figures at the lake through the canopy above. In the foreground, there is a woman with pointed ears, a flower crown, and elaborate magician's attire leaning against a tree, looking impatient. She has a sword sheathed at her side. Immediately next to her is a man with frontier-like attire and a rifle wrapped in leather slung at his back. He wears glasses and has a small pair of horns on his head. He's staring out at the lake. At his waist is a holstered handgun on one side, and a scrollcase and lantern containing a glowing frog sprite on the other. Next to both of them is a short goblin woman with goggles on her head, looking quizzically down at a camera in her hands, facing the viewer. In the background is a gathering of maidens dancing festively in the shallow water before a large creature that has the upper body of a woman and an enormous lower body of a spider, resting in the water and posing with its arms pointed upwards.

I wanna know more about this though. It's just Rance isn't it
Gates of Krystalia bills itself as a love letter to the isekai anime genre, which normally involves a regular person being shunted into a fantastical alternate world via magical means. The tabletop RPG uses a deck of standard playing cards to power combat, but it also includes features that allow players to manage their own kingdoms and something called the Hero’s Harem. Nearly all comments on the Instagram post accepted the RPG’s setting and mechanics but took umbrage with the way its imagery was created.

Is it tacky to post multiple WIPs before something's done? cuz that's what's on the menu tonight. #ttrpg #art #digitalart #illustration #absentiaart
An early sketch of a full page illustration from Absentia's yet to be announced TTRPG project. A woman with cat ears and a tail in stylized attire swings down a two-handed buzzsaw weapon into a humanoid monster reaching out for her, cutting deep into its torso. Blood splatters profusely from the wound. Behind her a human man in a fur-lined coat and brimmed cap points a multi-barreled firearm into the distance, firing at something out of frame.

Got invited to a new Lancer campaign today, so seems like a great opportunity to add some mecha to my portfolio 😊 Toying around with an aviation/racing-styled Sunzi. Kinda stumbling into Armored Core proportions

wip cuz I should go to bed #lancer #ttrpg #art #digitalart #illustration #absentiaart
An early sketch of a wide-stanced mech next to a male pilot with a billowing cape. It's the Sunzi from Lancer, styled after mid-20th century warplanes and classic cars.

this girl finishes her WIPs eventually #ttrpg #art #digitalart #illustration #absentiaart
An illustration from Absentia's TTRPG of a woman posing with a katana. She has a pale complexion, long and straight white hair, elf ears, and a yellow hairband. She wears lightly armored attire in a modern/sci-fi style with a translucent, plastic coat overtop. One of her arms is covered in high-tech armor that projects a magical shield over her side. There is a revolver holstered at her waist, opposite her sword's sheath.

A cover illustration for the podcast Super Despair World, with the caption "Lo-fi Podcasts to Chill to". The illustration shows a mustached man strumming a guitar while sitting on the banks of a lake. He wears a white buttoned shirt and black slacks. His surroundings are vibrantly green and full of colorful flowers. In the distance there are towering fantastical mushrooms with waterfalls pouring from their caps, feeding the lake.

A sketch of a woman in heavy knight armor, posing with a mechanical looking blade and a grenade launcher. The cloth parts of her outfit have a grinning face motif, and there is a proud looking hog next to her with a matching bandana around its neck.

A picture of Lain from Serial Experiments Lain at her computer, looking over her shoulder at the viewer. A caption on top of the image reads: "Can we meet?" absolutely not. I'm just an internet person, I do not exist.

Super Despair World is a show I do with my friend Dave where we talk about weird, interesting or bleak stuff on the internet. Despite the name, I do this show to push back against the urge to doom out and rot about the state of the world and maybe learn something. Check out superdespairworld.com
