a digital collage of karl-peter schmidt, a blond man with square glasses wearing a tan business suit and carrying a suitcase with worn-out stickers on it, standing in front of a wall with pink floral wallpaper and light wood paneling. he has a goofy smirk on his face. also behind him is a giant ornate picture frame holding a mountain scene. he is surrounded by smiley face stamps and stickers, along with cutouts reading "believe it or not this is a normal guy (arrow pointing to him)," "100%," and "nothing about this man is very strange at all. please proceed as usual. thank you!"

don't worry! he's Normal 🙂

Four vintage buttons, a yellow button with Snoopy on it that says “Enjoy, Enjoy!”. A white button with a blue cartoon banjo with a smiling face that says “Philadelphia Folk Festival.” A black button that says “1968 Family Holiday Fair” in a fun white retro font. A faded yellow button with a black and white cat hanging from a branch that says “Hang on, baby, Friday’s coming.”

some of my favorite vintage buttons :^)

had a dumb idea for a birthday miku lol 🎂

it's similar w/psychosis. they suspect that one reason stigma against psychosis has gotten *worse* instead of better over the last 30 years (as it has for most other mental illnesses) is because of slavering media coverage any time someone who even MIGHT have psychosis does something terrible

A drawing of the artist walking around with a silly smile, while a carabiner holding keys, connected to her pants, is making loud CLINK CLANK CLONK sound. Above her is a thought bubble with a robot bearing the caption "Lesbotron 3000", also making loud CLINK CLANK CLONK sounds.

happy lesbian week

Having received so much love for our good old #MoonChild game, we are happy to give love back to the game community by releasing the Moon Child source files + assets.

Details can be read in the ReadMe text. We're looking forward to see what you're going to create! 💚

Two photos of a crafted Hoi game character plushie. The second photo features Hoi with a bow.

When my wife and I had just married, she crafted this Hoi plushie for me. 😊💚

As we married uhm… a 'few' years ago, the condition of the plushie has declined, but I thought it's fun to post here.

My wife wants me to emphasize that it was a quick prototype, not a finalized creation. 🙂

Update #2: Quicksilver, a detector for AI-generated music.

Most folks today are not aware that AI-generated music (entire songs generated by AI models) are growing rapidly. Today, there are more AI-generated songs than human-created songs arriving each week on platforms like Spotify.

Update #3:

We have fixed the "TRUE" bug on Nightshade that's been tormenting us for quite some time. The fix also comes with updated drivers for new NVidia chips.

The Windows version is ready and available:
nightshade.cs.uchicago.edu/downloads.html

The MacOS version still needs a bit of time.

We all known A*azon tends to sell books bellow list prices, but I've recently found them selling books at below WHOLESALE prices. I know this because I own a store. That's fucked up.
Anyways, support your local book stores. Shit's tough.

People should read.
I'm tired of people not reading.
Please, if you can, PLEASE, read! Read everything, but especially fiction! Read comics!
It will help you with empathy AND make you smarter.
Please, read.

If you kill me, you have to finish my comic. Sorry, I don't make the rules.

Let's not drop the momentum, please boost this!

We desperately need help replacing our collapsing septic tank. The government has been absolutely no help (because of course) and I'm paying out of pocket each month for a porta potty until this gets fixed.

The way profit maxxing corpo culture has invaded every form of art through algorithms pushing people into daily posting is really weighing on me lately. Efficiency and regularity of making "content" being prized above all else feels so grim, man.

Believe in yourself.

An ensemble drawing of all the main characters from my main OC story, The Iris, eating at a cafe. Description below: Carrot is a waiter, carrying too many trays (over worked as usual) that are now in the process of falling everywhere because Tulip, no doubt drunk, is reaching for a drink from the tray causing Carrot to lose balance, Tulip is crushing Red under her. Luci is looking on it horror. Willow is also looking at this surprised, although more neutral, seeming to have only just come in. Roxy is glaring from outside the window, likely having caught sight of Tulip and Red, known trouble makers. Steel and Jade, further outside the window, seem to be walking together. Steel is pointing at the restaurant and Jade is looking surprised at Roxy. Far in the background on the balcony of the restaurant, Veridid and Kace seem to be on a date, Veridid can see the chaos happening but Kace does not notice. Vera is also there peacefully reading a book. On the TV is an ad where the popular idol's Gale and Abi are promoting some burger for its cheap price. At the top of the image you can see a flyer with ads on it and the stores menu. The ads have cameos for some of the smaller characters in the story. A lawyer ad for Whis, a quilting ad for Qpid and a bicycling(?) service for Ben. The restaurant itself has vines everywhere for a sort of natural feel.

Every time I write a paper, I find myself checking the word count over and over to see if it changed, even if I've only written, like, one paragraph. I do not have object permanence with my own writing
