For reference, before the update I worked at -7 and it looked like this

Screenshot from procreate app. Words in a comic word balloon read ‘But, then, as a parent I should be used to cleaning up children’s messes by now.’

Did procreate’s new update take away to shrink the leading in type past 0? This is the smallest line spacing I can get?

I love taking a few supplies to a cafe and doing a thorough art session with friends - here's a spread from earlier this year, drawn by putting down flats first with crayola markers, and then layering neocolor ii crayons overtop.

A photo of a tabletop covered in markers, art crayons, and a sketchbook spread showing a drawing of a twisted tree, and another drawing of a large impossible castle in a pastoral landscape against the sea and a pink cloud-filled sky.

I saw the dot coms crash from a front row seat. AI is running out of money way faster.

The evangelism is insecurity from people who made the wrong bet. I’ve seen it before. futurism.com/future-socie...

AI Data Centers Are an Even Bigger Disaster Than Previously Thought

An investment manager realized he made a crucial mistake — and that his grim prediction about AI investments may not have been cynical enough.

I don’t know if it’s just me, but I’ve been noticing an increase in flowery language without substance in everyday life. Conservatives being pedantic about etymology. Narcissists saying stuff like “I was extremely offended and completely bewildered.” Adding adjectives for the performance. (1/?)
