I've been using Calibre to organize ebooks for years but it looks like I've got to find a new app for that now. Once "ai" is integrated into a program I can't trust it any more.

The other night I was in the hot tub in the shed in my back yard and a pack of coyotes ran through the trees right outside, yipping away. It's extremely cool to live both in the city and the woods at the same time

Third "90s anime" character design I did for a test lately.
This one is the goriest one of them all. Not my usual topic, but quite fun to do, for sure. ^^
A bit Juubei Ninpuchou (Ninja Scroll) inspired.
