How to Feed a Robot

[tags: #kangaroo #robot #technology #comicstrip #anthro #funny #noai #krita #digitalart]
Comic panel comparing two robots and how to properly "feed" them. Text at top: How to Feed a Robot To the left: An X and the text "WRONG" is above a cold, unfeeling, boxy "AI Image Generator" which is using its yellow robotic claws to consume a painting through its shredder-like mouth. A smokestack on the robot's left is spewing out lots of smog. To the right: A green checkmark and the text "RIGHT" is above a picture of an overjoyed, hungry Robo-Roo holding a freshly baked rhubarb pie.

Wanted to learn vector design, and Affinity Designer was free on the iPad, so why not? While it was frustrating, I still like the end result.

I also find it suspicious that this account (@/thereal3wa.bsky.social) popped up specifically to harass me and my friends. Given that there’s only one person who hates me BECAUSE I ship Kei/Yuri...I'm not saying this is capcomgoldenyears, but it's too specific to call it a coincidence.

Even as far back as August of this year, he was being rude towards my Kei/Yuri fan art for no reason whatsoever. Never got an apology from him.
Yawn, they're not lesbians, and it has been showcased time and again, like in episode 6 of the OVA. Yuri entered into a romantic relationship with a man. There's even an AMV about it/showcasing it for Christ's sake:

This took way longer than it should've to make
#dirtypair #80sanime #yuri
Two fake YouTube videos, both uploaded by "LovelyAngel234Kei". The first and most recent one (above) is titled "MEET MY GIRLFRIEND!!!!", with the thumbnail being Yuri holding Kei's shoulder while the two girls are looking happy. The second, older video is titled "WE ARE NOT LESBIANS (stop asking)", and the thumbnail has an angry Kei and Yuri looking at the camera, with Kei yelling at the viewer.

From episode 4 of the TV series; “The Chase Smells of Cheesecake and Death”. Kei has just met pro wrestler Lan, and excitedly asks “Um, would it be okay if I touched you?” Kei touches Lan’s arm while complimenting “Such muscular arms! These belong to a real woman!”

Which is gayer:
- being gay
- the ending theme to the Dirty Pair OVA series
Yuri and Kei parachuting and having a good time Their parachute is heart-shaped at the top... Lyrics, in English: "I Love you so". The red balloon floats through the sky... ...and lands in Kei and Yuri's hands! Lyrics: "You know I'm crazy for you"

Not the first one to point out this scene, but yeah, they'll have each other
From episode 13; "What's This? Our Fair Skin is Getting Slimy". Yuri asks Kei "Would you want to date a guy who smells like a sewer?" Kei is surprised... After sniffing herself, she says "Well, at least we'll have each other, right?"

I know these two aren't canonically dating, but with moments like this you can't blame people for thinking they're more than friends #dirtypair #80sanime
From episode 25, "E-Eek! The Boy in the Mansion is a Terminator?!" Kei, after being freed, leaps to embrace Yuri. She exclaims "I love you, partner!" Kei embraces Yuri. Yuri makes a funny face. Yuri visibly blushes as Kei embraces her.

Screenshot from Dirty Pair OVA episode 4; "But They’re Only Children! Playing War Games Warrants a Firing Squad?". Yuri is telling a punk kid soldier "I'm not trying to get a boyfriend!" Yuri glances at Kei and asks "Oh, is that what it is?"

Pixel Paradise! Tried to mimic the look of PC98 pixel art with this one.

Redrew a Sam & Max panel with Kei!
[tags; #dirtypair #kei #ケイ #ダーティペア #samandmax #redraw #1980s #fanart #animefanart #clipstudiopaint #digitalart]
Cartoon illustration of Kei from the anime Dirty Pair pointing at...an empty spot. (Go ahead, edit something there!) She is saying "Look at that. Isn't it ridiculous? Maybe it will leave if we all laugh at it." The referenced panel, from the one-page Sam & Max comic "Our Bewildering Universe". A caption to the right reads "BAFFLING ANIMAL WONDERS". Sam is pointing to a boar and saying "Look at that. Isn't it ridiculous? Maybe it will leave if we all laugh at it."

Hey Sam & Max fans, I urge you to check out Dirty Pair, and vice versa! While they may have completely different art styles and settings, these two gunslinging duos have a lot more in common than you might think!

(also they are really gay for each other)

#samandmax #dirtypair
Screenshot of Yuri and Kei from Dirty Pair. Yuri says "It was intuition. Female intuition." Screenshot from the remastered version of "Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse". Max says "You live on our street, there's a good chance you're gonna get blown up. She should understand that by now, Sam."

FrightFall (Belated) Day 3: Haunted House
[tags: #iguana #rat #originalcharacter #comicstrip #hauntedhouse #humor #halloween #traditionalart #penandink #frightfall2025 #frightfall]
Title, to the right of panel 2: FrightFall Day 3: "Haunted House", drawn on 10-06-2025. Panel 1: Chartreuse Iguana is walking through a forest when a mysterious hand from behind a tree beckons for his attention, saying "PSST!" Chartreuse is intrigued, as indicated by the question mark in his speech bubble. Panel 2: The mysterious individual is a shady-looking rat wearing sunglasses. He pulls up a crudely-drawn picture of a mansion and asks Chartreuse "Ya wanna buy a haunted house?" Chartreuse crouches down to the rat's level and asks "How much are you charging?" Panel 3: The rat makes his offer: "Just ten bucks. It's a steal." Chartreuse agrees to this and slams down a $10 bill, shouting "SOLD!" Panel 4: The "haunted house" turns out to be a haunted OUThouse. Realizing he's been duped, Chartreuse angrily kicks and punches the door to the worthless shack, while the rat skips off into the distance with his $10 in tow, singing "SUCKERrrrrrrrrrrrr".

Happy Halloween! Here’s a festive Maniac Bat drawing for the occasion!

[tags: #bat #rat #oc #halloween #clipstudiopaint #digitalart ]
Cartoon illustration of Maniac Rat…et, Bat. Compared to his rat form, his ears are pointy; his buck tooth is longer and comes to a dull point, he is wearing a purple vest and he has (probably not anatomically accurate) wings, which he is spreading out. (Hey, I tried!)
