When your boss's son joins you for a walk on your rare day off, and you don't know if he's doing it just to defy his parents or if he genuinely wants to spend time with you, so against your better judgement you let him tag along--

A digital illustration of two characters walking side by side down a garden path in autumn. In the foreground and are some tree branches in their autumn colours, with their leaves scattered around the grass. In the background, out of focus, is a set of stone steps and the stone wall and windows of a large country house.

One is a short, brown-skinned woman wearing a green, red-orange and yellow plaid dress with a crinoline, underneath a brown and black overcoat with cape sleeves. She has a pale red bonnet trimmed with white lace and tied around her chin with a black ribbon, over her dark, neatly parted hair.

The other character is a tall man with pale skin, blond hair, a pointy nose and thick eyebrows. He's wearing a blue sack suit with a matching vest, with lighter blue and red tartan pants. He's wearing a straw boater hat with a red ribbon that matches his tie.

The woman has her light grey gloved hand raised to her face, as if holding back a laugh, while the man grins, blushes, and tips his hat at her. In his other hand, he carries a walking stick.

🚨Here’s what baristas are saying about Starbucks’s blending powder. Workers are calling on all customers to STOP BUYING STARBUCKS until baristas get protections and better in-store conditions finalized in fair union contracts.

“i literally got a migraine for the first time in years after work”
“I almost passed out after making one of those drinks and the headache came on immediately after I scooped that powder into the blender”
“Me with nonstop coughing fits every shift since the powder dropped

"
“i've had headaches both my last shifts which i never have”
“i was having trouble breathing randomly during my last two shifts”
“you inhale those powders everytime you scoop them. Especially when they're on a raised shelf at eye level... but corporate never seems to listen or care"

*our lawyers want you to know that while these comments surrounding Starbucks’ blending powder were posted publicly, SBWU cannot verify their accuracy.

“Omg a partner today was telling me his hand started to tingle after he spilled some on his hand!!!"
“Ive been getting weird hives from it like bumps and rashes"
“No but lowkey since yesterdays launch I've been getting these rashes"
“eyes have been SUPER irritated, red and itchy since launch day, even worse today after working cold bar this morning.”
“Omg one of my co workers also got a rash! ”
“my coworker got off bar with hives”

*our lawyers want you to know that while these comments surrounding Starbucks’ blending powder were posted publicly, SBWU cannot verify their accuracy.

“i have asthma and i have noticed that ever since i have started crafting the blended beverages with the blending powder, my chest has been hurting so badly and i have had to take my inhaler more than normal."
"I have asthma and it does make it harder to breathe:/ had to take my inhaler today"
“oh my god my fucking asthma has been AWFULLLL"
"Legit went to the doctors yesterday and was prescribed an inhaler"
"“yes sore throats and headaches at my store"
“Yes I have very nauseous and it was right after I inhaled that powder, we were restocking and it just goes in the air it's literally unavoidable"

ArtFight 2026 Thread! Staring with @doodlemancy.com and an unofficial follow-up to Petra and Monty's antics from last year. Okay I promise I won't do a wholeass comic page for AF again. Probably. #ArtFight2026

A digital comic page featuring Monty (a trans man with a pointy nose, long, dark hair in a ponytail, and a bowtie) and Petra Raskoph (tall, androgynous woman with pale skin, light brown hair, and a light blue eye, plus an eyepatch). In the first panel, Monty is plugging a nostril to snort a bunch of dirt and grass(??) out of the other one, still wearing Petra's coat, which is a bit too big for him, and looking somewhat dishevelled.
Next, Petra tries on Monty's coat. "And you made this yourself?" Monty responds from the ground: "For the most part, yup!"
Off-screen, Petra asks "Hm? What's this in the pocket?" followed by a loud SNAP

And then a big panel of Petra, crouched on the ground beside Monty, holding her hand, which now has a mousetrap on it :') ow.

"Why is there a mousetrap in your pocket!?"
"... Trade secret?"

His hair is dishevelled, his shirt sleeves are rolled up, and his black vest is entirely undone. His stubble is particularly pronounced and there are bags under his eyes. Sitting on a fancy green couch, he's rubbing his forehead and squinting one-eyed at some papers he's holding.

Cropped digital drawing. Caspian, a man with medium bronze skin, red hair up in a messy topknot, and orange eyes. In this image he has a bit more to his usual sideburns, as well as stubble across the rest of his jaw. He's scowling offscreen, and the hair and burn scars on his chest are just barely visible.

Birdee, did you have to put this much effort into a ridiculous toxic villain yaoi redraw of a viral Wikipedia image? Excuse me, who the hell do you think I am? Yes, I did have to. Anyways, Graham's mistake is that he forgot the gag and he's about to just drop this guy on the floor out of spite.

A cartoony digital illustration. A man with blond hair, sideburns and a pointy nose, wearing a striped button-up shirt and blue trousers with suspenders, is tied up with red ropes and held up by another man with short brown hair, wearing a black frock coat and top hat with an orange puff tie. The blond man looks annoyed and flustered, and text by his face says "Put me down". The other man just looks smug, I guess? They're standing in front of a red curtain background.

Putting all of these in one spot this time! Because I like attention and I think they're neat. The Magical Freelancer's Guild characters vs their worst day, ft mostly the villains, and also Monty is here. #webComic #ocSky #queerArt #ocArt

A digital illustration. Monty, from The Magical Freelancer's Guild comic, a trans man with medium-brown skin, is shown twice-- on the right, he has his long wavy hair in a ponytail, wearing a green vest, brown sack coat, matching trousers and a red tie. He's smiling wide and gesturing dramatically. On the left is a slightly younger version of him, mostly facing away. His hair is shorter and looks damp, and he's shirtless, but wearing fishtail back trousers . On his back are several cuts and a mix of fresh and dried blood. There's some blood on his face too, coming from his forehead, and his expression is uncharacteristically grim. He's holding a shiny pair of scissors, and there's a little flash of blue coming from his eye. The two are both surrounded by floating embers.

A digital illustration featuring two versions of the same character-- Caspian Argyle from The Magical Freelancer's Guild webcomic. He's a tall young man with red hair, light brown skin and orange eyes. On the left, his hair is chopped messily to just past his chin. He's wearing what looks like hospital pajamas, and his right hand and entire left arm are covered in bandages. He's gripping his left arm and grimacing, his head bowed. On the right, facing away from the viewer somewhat, he's wearing a red frock coat, black pants, black gloves, and a vest with a clerical collar. His hair is longer but tied back in a topknot. He's holding one hand up, mid-gesture, as a stream of blood appears to come from up his sleeve and float across the canvas. The background is stormy and gloomy, save for a few bright rays of dappled sunlight on the right side.

A digital illustration of a man with short wavy blond hair and a scruffy beard, wearing a brocade vest over a shirt with the sleeves rolled up and holding a glass of something. Standing back to back with him is an older version of himself, facing away from the camera. That version wears a top hat and frock coat, has a full beard, and holds a pocket watch in one hand and a walking stick in the other. The lighting is orange and blue, like a fireplace on a dark night, but there are hints of fog and dark clouds in the background.

A digital illustration of two versions of a man with light brown hair and pale blue eyes. On the left is his younger self, wearing an 1800s police uniform and holding a smoking revolver. His hair is dishevelled, he has injuries on his hands and face, and he looks horrified. His breath is visible, and there are snow drifts creeping in on his side of the image, as well as some falling snow lit by a beam of light. On the right is an older version of him, now dressed in a dapper vest, frock coat, tophat, and puff tie. His hair is greying a bit. He's drawing a cane sword and smiling smugly.
