I have to be over there in like 20 minutes and I’m still sitting in bed, filled with dread and still fully exhausted. the sad thing is, we don’t even have protections from working so many days straight. Because our union is ass. Ugh.

Wow. LOISH got accused of using Ai to make her art. I started following her on early deviantart. I remember first seeing her paintings in college. This is ridiculous, no one is safe. Artists Ive followed for actual decades are getting harassed because their work has been stolen and regurgitated.

I know most of you guys don't go on the other app but the pope posted an anti AI/ pro artists statement yesterday, and the ensuing cope and memes is really funny

Pope Leo XIV
@Pontifex

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

2016: I will never fight a holy war

2019: Pope Leo I am ready launch me towards the nearest data center

some AI guy saying he makes christian children's books with AI asking the pope if that is ok then and someone posting a meme react with the pope holding a baseball bat saying 'did I stutter'

The upside is that after my 17 days of HELL, somewhere in the last 2 weeks of October I get to go do an “Adult Halloween” thing with my friend, her husband, and presumably some other people we haven’t confirmed yet WHICH MEANS I GET TO KIT UP, YAAAYYYYY!!!

re: this thread, I am in fact working on the Shitty First Draft outline of EFHA! Will’s definitely canon now, he’s literally the reason they succeed i know several places. Could I technically cut him and replace him with Dave…? Maybe, but Dave doesn’t have motivation. Will does. So he stays.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, working at a desk. A brain next to her says, "We need to take breaks!"
The second panel zooms in on Sarah's face. She is annoyed. She says, "What if I don't listen to you?"
The third panel shows the brain smiling.
The fourth panel shows the brain reaching towards a lever. The brain says, "I'LL MAKE YOU."

I could've never imagined working with such a spectacular & skilled crew, making something so gruesome & beautiful, which is what I love from the horror genre. So proud of our team & cast. And to those waiting, hope you enjoy, or at the very least, hope it makes you flinch. #knightsofguinevere

Hey artists! Quote with your pink art :) 🌸💖✨

A digital illustration of two characters in armor standing on a grassy cliff edge overlooking a vast expanse of lowlands. A title in a dark font sits in the top left corner: "Fractal Alliances - Little Golden Age (1994-2006)." The title references a section in the Fractal Alliances anthology (which currently exists primarily as a very big outline).

The two characters are Ev Stark and Fin Heran. Ev, with short-cropped hair in this illustration, is in blue, red, and gray Aetherian armor. THey are also holding a standard-issue blaster, and have two hilts sticking out of their back holster (they're non-specific because they're Magically Concealed Weapon (MCW) hilts). Ev is standing behind Fin, mostly facing the valley, but they have their face turned to look over Fin's shoulder at him.

Fin is wearing standard medium-level Talkian armor, which comes in shades of brown and metallic gray, detailed with Talkian red. While Ev is in full armor, covered from the neck down, Fin's armor leaves his arms mostly bare except for arm bands and vambraces. He is holding a sword in one hand, which is lowered towards the ground, and in his raised hand there is a simple gray blaster. He has another sword strapped to his back. Fin's hair is also on fire, as it is prone to doing.

The color palette of this piece is a mix of purples, pinks, and oranges. It feels vaguely like a shot taken at sunset.

(Pitch has an excellent memory, being a psykojic, so he has really long and complicated passwords for Lycanthra shit, some of which he shared with Will, who memorized them with mnemonics. turns out those same passwords were relevant to the defense system and locations Pitch used to handle.)

000

🍊✨ r. a. menace | (he/they) @artistic-menace.com · 26/09/2026

lmao he even remembers some of Pitch's passwords, tips, tricks, location stories, etc and is able to keep the crew safe when they get to the upper levels because of it

100

🍊✨ r. a. menace | (he/they) @artistic-menace.com · 26/09/2026

another reason I want to keep Will is because he comes in partway through the story, and helps the crew out A LOT because even though he never went to HA with Harper or Pitch before they defected, they complained about the place enough that he actually had a lot of really good information about it

🍊✨ r. a. menace | (he/they) @artistic-menace.com · 26/09/2026

I also added a piece of lore about pop-up semi-sentient labyrinths that get more sentient, common, and fucked up the lower you go in the Levels. those are fun.

EFHA headshot refs ( ft. the guy that gives me a headache bc I can’t decide whether or not he should really be a part of this story ) #art #ocs #brokendimensions

A series of 6 digitally sketched headshots for characters for a prospective project called Escape From Hell’s Aisles (yes, the spelling of “aisle’s” is deliberate).

Riven: The first character is a blond white androgynous kid with bright teal eyes and a stern, determined expression. They are wearing a high-necked blue tunic with no sleeves.

Carric: The next character (to the right) is a purple-skinned Tartarun woman with several short horns and blue eyes. She looks vaguely worried about something. She is wearing a purple scarf and gray armor. There is a dark scar on her right cheek and above her eye.

Ambrose: The third character (down and to the left) is a dog man with brown fur, a big red flannel, and a pauldron on one shoulder.

“Dave:” The fourth character is a white, red (orange) haired man with green eyes and sideburns. He is wearing a blue tunic like the Riven’s, in addition to dark blue overalls.

Mable: The fifth character is a red-skinned woman with graying green hair and glowing green eyes. She is wearing some kind of shoulder holster, and red version of the long-sleeved tunic Dave wears.

“Will:” The last character is a brown man with long, curly black hair pulled into a high ponytail. He is wearing a mask that covers half his face. He has glowing red-purple eyes, and is wearing another kind of shoulder holster, in addition to shoulder pauldrons.
