I drew this for a friend a few years back.
Red pencil and ink drawing of smiling Squidward showing his 5-star restaurant to gaping Squilliam and his fish hangers-on, while Patrick bounces in hogtied and Mr. Krabs runs in chased by The Appetizer.
SQUILLIAM: Homina homina homina homina homina homina...
SPONGE: Table for Homina?

Fierce Pigeon Interview

I caught up with the pigeon who's taking Spunkton by storm for being "fierce" (stylish and confident).

What does a typical day look like for you?
oooo

Is there anything you're really interested in lately?

@eniko@mastodon.gamedev.place

OH. right! i get it now!

i get why AI is so depressing to me. because covid already shrunk my world to almost nothing, where almost all of my life revolves around socializing and watching videos on the internet (which is being ruined by AI) and creating creative works through coding (which is being ruined by AI), often using open source tools and libraries (which are being ruined by AI)

i already had so little and now even that is being rotted away before my eyes

uhhhhh considering that the City of Seattle itself has the WAISN number linked for its ICE-report hotline this seems like it's a massive, massive safety concern for every immigrant in the Puget Sound? (source: WAISN union still fighting for recognition): www.instagram.com/waisnworkerc...
The Washington Immigrant Solidarity Network has officially laid off all of its Hotline Organizers and Rapid Response Organizers. Any phone calls from someone trying to report ICE or find support have gone unanswered since 7 AM.

Man it's like, really annoying to be someone who cares about AI usage in the FGC because we got people hyping up SF4 rollback and XDZW when both were slapped together with AI, oh but the person who made SF4 rollback says they don't like the term "vibecoded" because they had a plan, fuck outta here.

making some goopy guys
Two sketches on gridded paper in pink and black pen

The top sketch is labeled "Atlantean 3-pilot biomech" and the bottom is labeled "Atlantean Pilot"

The top sketch shows a large biomechanical monster with three slits where its head should be, long arms reminiscent of starfish, and spikes or ridges along its back. A tiny figure stands nearby to show scale, indicating that this monster is at least 20m tall.

The bottom sketch is of a biomechanical helmet with ridges and bumps. The eyes are covered in bumpy half-spheres, and there are mouth tubes coming out on either side of what looks like a mask. The ears are covered with bulbs that have a twisted tube coming out the middle.

Latest Character I finished for @puppytruck.dog ! Ms. Microfiche! This one has a crazy lot of parts to animate and the hose texture is tiling so it can UV scroll to make it seem to spool off when she uses the end bit to dangle from.
A cartoony arachnid character consisting out of a hose reel with a handle on top and 6 metal legs wearing pink purple rubber boots. She has a camera with 3 lenses for a face and her arms are a swiss army knife with pliers or scissors and that useless tweezers from army knives stuck on a metal arm with a piece of old gum. There's just too much to describe so I'm stopping here, but you sorta get the idea I hope.

there's been so many batches of 10k mareep. an astronomical number of mareep.
Top image: A slot machine showing three mareep at the payline. The top lights of the machine read "MACHINE PAYS UP TO 10000 MAREEP" "ALL OTHER WINS DO NOT EXIST" "PLAY 3 COINS". A down arrow on the right side reads "INSERT BILLS BELOW".

Middle image: Special Agent Dale Cooper is looking at the winning mareeps and yelling "Hello-o-o-o!".

i put all the switches and knobs i had lying around into a box attached to my joystick. very nice for having controls in vr that you can reach with either hand, including a thumbstick mapped to the mouse and a button for recentering
Nice light blue 3D printed box covered in switches. A big landing gear handle juts out to the left.Inside wiring.Attached to the stick. The landing gear handle lights up poorly.Backside.

Mareep Farm in pokemon channel randomly picks and shows 100, 500, 1000, 5000, or 100000 mareep before changing to the next show. early on in the marathon there were a bunch more lower amounts. but now the floodgates are open and it's been a bunch of 10ks.

Monday-Man Jr.'s Monday Night Meal

"Time for a late night brunch!" says the cherubic Monday-Man Jr.

"I'll have a banana," he says. We see a banana on a table.

"some frozen waffles," he says. We see some yellow-ish disks on a plate.

"and a cup of Sleepy-Time Tea for Bozos who Stayed Up Too Late The Night Before!™" he says. We see a steaming cup next to a box that says "Horse Tranquilizer Herbs."
