Verge headline: Silicon Valley has forgotten what normal people want by Elizabeth Lopatto Illustration of a brain melting in the sun

"In the place of problem-solving technology, companies have jumped on successive bandwagons like NFTs, the metaverse, and LLMs. What these all have in common is that they are not built to really solve a market problem. They are built to make VCs and companies rich."

Jesus fucking christ. So do you like, do ANY thinking or work for yourself anymore? Or is it all LLMs?

Sketch commission by Tealfuleyes for Magsthe3rd featuring a pinup like sketch of their anthropomorphic goat sitting on the skull of a dragon with a miniature familiar of themselves floating.

Sketch commission done for @magsthe3rd.bsky.social . I'm very happy with how it turned out. I had a lot of fun with this and was a great way to break in Rebelle.

A drawing of two trolls

My style has drifted so much since I published the troll mini, he needed an update.
There’s a lot I like about the 2017 drawing, but he just doesn’t “fit” anymore 😵‍💫

POV: You are a Roman and have a bawdy friend from Pompeii.🍆

Hello travellers! In honor of today's holiday, my latest modern set is an innocuous barn with a hidden secret. Beneath the pedestrian veneer is the means to celebrate 4/20 in style with a flourishing cannabis farm complete with cutting stations and drying racks for a fully functioning empire!

come on man.

The entire post concerns the first comic page in the Wicked By Nature Narrative. It is entirely without text Panel 1: an awkward human rogue approaches a wooden crate. It appears they are in a cargo hold. He points his finger up as if to address someone. Panel 2: close up of the rogue knocking on the side of the crate Panel 3: there’s movement in the box and the rogue seems to back off. Woah! Panel 4: Dahlia, the protagonist, bursts and stumbles out of the crate. She crashes across the hallway into another box. Boyd, the rogue, looks startled. Panel 5: back view of Dahlia standing up abruptly — as if this was intended Panel 6: dramatic close up of Dahlia! Gwar har har! She does her trademark laugh and monologues a bit. Panel 7: she realizes she has straw in her mouth and uncomfortably spits it out. ‘Bweh’

Dahlia making her grand debut in this textless snippet from WbN. How’d she get there? What’s she saying? Why is she like this?

But we'd better not talk about Trump's tariffs and how they hurt the collectors of the fandom, right? Man, fuck tfw2005 and its mollycoddling of the far right pricks in the fandom.
