i made a few edits to my sad little poem & drew something to accompany it
![[pothos plant vine drawing]
message to my former friend who uses AI
images to accompany social media posts
about his job at the addict kids to gambling factory
re: your prompt
"anime style guy in work clothes," a boyish
face that desperately clings to bygone youth;
unspecified "potted plants" -- mimicry
of perhaps lilacs, plum blossoms
on vague greenery blobs
They all have leaves like rose bushes, though
I see over here the machine tried to
approximate: spider plant, monstera, anthurium
But I can tell: you didn't bother
to learn botanical names.
(I hesitate to call them) pothos drape,
weightless, on a pergola ("sunny day")
-- there's no real source of light.
Lines: wrong without handsweight
or intent, "make"
"cityscape in the background."
I would have taught you to place
a horizon line,
a vanishing point](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ymipjgi2ebiptelhrw6zezas/bafkreibvj3ui3r3h3ln2wr4747lttxga6z2vsnvsb7hem7jeio3lq7gaei@jpeg)

i take frenzy damage every time i see someone go "well i just use it for the boring stuff". what are you TALKING about? if it's boring or unimportant, why are you putting it in? NPC dialogue is fertile ground for worldbuilding, creating verisimilitude, conveying important information, and hijinks!!
Buy a solo indie dev's game because I want to support them.
Find out it uses OpenAI to write "non-important NPC dialogue".

EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum".
PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made.

Smut is fine, porn is fine, writing about difficult subject matter or other fucked up shit is fine. Books are not capable of harming, traumatizing, or corrupting you. Mobbing an author bc of something they WROTE instead of something they DID is censorship and you're acting like a fascist. Sit down.
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

I appear to have caught myself a nice little inflammation in the wrist of my dominant hand. Do not recommend, especially if you're someone who needs to be doing things with their hands all the time 😭

The wolf princess, a companion piece to my other Princess Mononoke print.
This one’s not part of the monthly print sub, but you can grab one from the site along with the Ashitaka print

A repost..
'Leopard Lizard' ~ Wooden spoon carved in Australian Brown Mallee burl (if I remember).
'Leopard Handle' spoon in Surinam Cherry wood. The idea was good but the dye bled into the side grain. I might try it again with milk paint for a 'cleaner' look.

Chickens in the Garden - a little bit of a harvest theme for this month’s riso print
I grew up having chickens and if I ever end up having a yard again I will most certainly have more. Wherever this is, I want to live there
