Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 01/10/2026A quick heads up folks: I am going to bump all the old scammer posts since there are a few new folks around who might not be aware of what happened and I want them to be cognizant of the situation. 000
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I am still here, been dealing with a lot of back end stuff; the series is still planned to go out...just unfortunately had to take the backseat to the rest of life, the universe, and everything. Keep your eyes peeled, I have a feeling this won't be back burnered for much longer. 000
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 04/07/2026I look at this and all I can see is Zombiecleo's avatar. Literally almost the exact colors and it doesnt help that part of her skin on Hermitcraft has flowers in her hair. I even think the eye color is the exact same too but not 100% sure. 021
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 25/06/2026I wish true photograph wasnt such a lost art, it always felt more real. Even as a digital scan you can tell that from this mag cover. I need to get more film carts for my vintage instax and polaroid cameras at some point and see if I can't get back in that game to keep analog photography alive 020
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 25/06/2026Man I'm finding a lot to refer back to for when I commission people to do art of Kokoro. Not gonna complain though, that is a fact I am more than okay with. 010
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 25/06/2026There is an elegance to this. Everything from the hair to the analog film chemistry, there is personality to her presence; something you dont see today at all if ever. Things pre internet were so much more than a transactional, this photo was clearly taken with deliberate intent and calculated eye. 010
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 25/06/2026I will not lie, I love sunspots. Ive wanted to put them on one of my characters but I have never been able to settle on any specific one of them to have these. 010
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 25/06/2026Note to self: piece ref for something with Kokoro in it 😉 010
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 24/06/2026Prevalent this stuff gets? The more it just shows most software companies don't give a shit, it's all ledgers and balance sheets for them. We dont matter since we're just numbers on both of those things. I just want technology to be what it should have been, free! 000
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 24/06/2026Should have lined. Which is again why FOSS is and will be the future, because eventually? People will get fed up with all this corpo censorship bullshit, all the as she says "shaming" by company AI censors, and will just choose to up and leave for FOSS. Its already happening slowly but the more 100
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 24/06/2026To be commoditized, but it was meant to be a means of completely free access to all the knowledge the world had to offer. But its become the exact opposite, rather than becoming the basic social and human right it was meant to be; it has been used for so much ill and to line pockets that it never 110
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 24/06/2026This is one of the reasons why I believe the future is in FOSS, free open source software, and not in products pushed by people who are only in the software business to turn a profit. I was taught by people from the old internet, and they instilled in me the idea that the internet was never meant 100
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 24/06/2026What a sad state of affairs we are in when one can't do what they want for a living without some corpo shareholders telling us we're invalid cause of the work we do and that their prudish asses are so easily offended and with egos so frail that a pair of barely exposed tits is such a huge problem. 100
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 11/06/2026Again shit was just better pre internet era, this included playboy photography 030
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 11/06/2026I had a chance to buy one of the splatter house games, I think it was one of the rarer genesis ones but I was an idiot and passed up on it...still kinda kicking myself for that. 020
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 11/06/2026I will be honest, even movie posters in japan go just as hard; don't believe me look at the one for John Wick and tell me they don't lol 020
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 11/06/2026There is something special and better in these old pinup photos. Might be just me and the fact I both love and miss the days of old analogue photography honestly. 010
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 06/06/2026That's a great too dichotomy though! Well hopefully you get to draw em both at some point soon! Also looked through your media tab, love what I see! Saw you used to do comms, sad to see I Might have missed that tho... 000
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 06/06/2026You're welcome my friend! I've always had a soft spot for characters who could easily kick my ass in a fight lol...so tifa is one of them for sure lmao. Shes also a close but loose body inspiration of my own OC. Hope you do draw more of tifa if you ever get some down time in ur life. 110
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 06/06/2026I am always a fan of softer lines and shapes. Tifa's face here is absolutely a great showcase of those two principles in action. This looks amazing! I genuinely plan on going through the rest of your profile later my friend! 110

Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 04/05/2026So I decided to look if any accts this clown used are still active just as 1 fnl public service to evry1 it could effect if not docd. Appears all but the Discord acct Mide/mia_dev27 have been deact, deleted, or T/OOF the pub net. Tho you need to + them as a friend on discord in order to DM them. 020
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 03/05/2026I've been sitting on the completed art for one episode, it really just needs to be edited into a motion comic and have the audio put to it for dubbing and then I can release it. My goal will be to hopefully have it released by mid summer hopefully by at least July. If I cant I'll let you all know. 000
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 03/05/2026Now that I've gotten my warnings out about that scammer, I am looking forward to getting back to work on Kokoro’s Spirit. Been nearly a year now since I last worked on it w/ only a few announcements about casting having gone out in that time. I am hoping to put out at least one episode of Season 0. 100
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 02/05/2026Good. As someone who openly believes this was all a waste of everyone's time and easily the most harmful thing to society in so many ways, I am glad to see these shitfucks finally getting their just deserts. So lets keep up the pressure and maybe just maybe we can get back to gaming again. 000
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 02/05/2026Image they used for this is circled in red on the right 000
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 02/05/2026Okay last update on this for a while, but here is a photo dive side by side of some of the shop n'slop they used in their scam. 2 more in the following messages below. After this post, I will likely be done with this matter; if I have anything further to add I'll add it but I think I am done for now 100
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 25/04/2026Expect at least one more update soon on this. It will be a photo based one, they used AI slop and photoshopped images in their attempts to curry your sympathy and favor. 000

Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 25/04/2026And that they feel so loved and it will be this that they try to lure you into a relationship. They will also repeatedly try to bleed you of money by using this statement of you not loving them enough. Please do yourself a favor and if this story gets used, walk away and block their accounts (2/2) 000
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 25/04/2026Update that I promised: This person will claim they are living in a basement apartment and are in massive debt left to them by their dead father who had been murdered while she was home. This is the point where they'll say your kindness has been the best thing they've had in some time. (1/?) 100
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 24/04/2026New update: They appear to have deactivated all the emails listed. Is also possible they have also deactivated all the Socials as well. I will provide you all with more updates as i get them and plan a major update to go out tomorrow to help you all stay aware in case they show up under new aliases 000
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 15/04/2026Papa's girls tied the knot. One escaped an abusive past to become a true daughter of the House of Blender. The other went from a two-tone eyed angel to a fierce warrior and loving wife. Yukiko & Mealla, I love you dearly. You shall always be my daughters. Art Credit: @strawkake.bsky.social 031

Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 23/02/2026Its such a simple cosplay but its surprisingly intricate in its design. Also i do love cosplays and outfits that have long fabric trails like this one bought one for my partner that has similar sleeve fabric trails. 030
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 13/12/2025With great pride and deep pleasure, and not that my GPU died & I cant make new announcement images ;P, that I announce the full current cast for Kokoro’s Spirit!

Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 02/12/2025I will likely drop this and continue to work on petitioning the US copyright courts and office to abolish their claims but I would have liked to have the guy relinquish it of his own will but it seems I won't get his cooperation. Sorry but I had to get it off my chest. Oh well c'est la vie. (5/5) 020
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 02/12/2025Through their teeth in their claims, from saying there had been no prior person to own the stolen IP, which is patently and blatantly false. I know I am in the right and really shouldn't be engaging with them about this and that the content has come back to me with my ownership unquestionable. (4/?) 100
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 02/12/2025Must be formally written, signed, and notorized. The signed part is also important here, at no point did I sign this mythical agreement and at no point was this okay. I've chosen to be kind to them in my attempts to get back my IP. But this person has been completely belligerent and has also (3/?) 100
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 02/12/2025Actual legal ownership or copyright holdings. He bought them from a disgruntled ex contractor of mine who completel misinterpreted handshake agreement in a discord message for something entirely unrelated agreement for their work. Per 17 U.S. Code § 204(a) all agreements for rights transfer (2/?) 100
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 02/12/2025How is it that Americans are so unwilling to admit when their wrong and to lose graciously. I issued an entire suite of C&Ds today to a gentleman in an attempt to recover stolen content and IP. He spent the entire time completely lying to not just me but himself about the fact he has no (1/?) 100
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 13/11/2025Man...I'm really annoyed rn. I stumbled onto, what I thought were, awesome reinterpretations of both the DKC & SM64 sound tracks in the style of Japanese Jazz Fusion. But turns out nothing good these days is done by anyone with talent, turns out these "reinterpretations" were made with AI...bummer! 000
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 04/11/2025Again I want to welcome @shennychwan.bsky.social to the stage as our leading lady! I know you all will love her stellar performance as Kokoro Blender! 021
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 04/11/2025With that said! Now I get to my favorite part! It is with greatest pride and deepest pleasure, that I get to present to you all...the first cast announcement! Voicing the titular character Kokoro Blender, please welcome Shenny! Please give her a warm round of applause and welcome! 000
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 04/11/2025I am beyond happy to finally make this announcement! For years now, I have been working on a project and now I am so close to debuting the series! Soon, you, my wonderful audience?! Will get to behold the world of Kokoro's Spirit! I am to work as hard as I can to have it ready by Spring next year! 000
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 24/09/2025Expect some actual worthwhile announcements to come in the coming days and months ahead. I am super excited to share the news with you all! 000
Old Man Splinter @oldmantoshi.bsky.social · 12/09/2025Expect a follow up to the scammer problem I had soon 000
