This is why I've always disagreed with the idea that "art" is purely subjectively defined. Art is a communication. The listener/viewer completes that communication in recieving it, but it is the intentionality of the creator that makes it art. "AI music" is no more music than traffic noise is.

Tancho Award!!! Lets go!!! 🤩❤️❤️❤️ … but…. I‘m really not sure if volume 7 of black & blue won’t be… too much for this award? 🙈 anyway - trying won’t hurt. It seems the jury isn’t that picky about adult topics in general. 🫰🏻

Diese ganze politische Dynamik gerade ist männlich zu lesen. Stur, eskalierend, provozierend - keinen Millimeter nachgebend, nicht aushandeln und Lösungen suchen, lieber schreien und hetzen. Der Stärkere, Lautere hat Recht. Die Jungs sind überall gerade außer Rand und Band. Mehr Männerwelt geht kaum

Derek wears a bright yellow discounter shopping bag as a hat, paired with a rainbow-striped top and a chunky green bead necklace. His blue curls spill out from underneath the bag as he stares ahead with a sleepy, cross-eyed expression, showing off crooked fangs.

Is it just me or is that „payment processors are making a fuss about nsfw content“ thing a regular, yearly occurrence now? Every fucking year in autumn the monster is rearing its head, trying to take away parts of our artistic freedom. 😑 FUCK. OFF.

Ok, time to do some dangerous ~opinions~ on the Tapas shutting down subject. First: I see everybidy going "see, that's why you should not rely on a platform, you gotta have your own website" and my bro in christ, do you have any idea how expensive and HARD it is to have your owm website?

i get it if ppl are using tapas to host their webcomics but for ppl like me who primarily use it as a mirror website for engagement/growing an audience, making your own website doesn't even address the issue... like at all

Did I tell you that this year I had an interview at Comic BCN with a Korean webtoon company? Thought they were interested in me as a colorist bc my style doesn’t match what they were looking for, but what caught their attention in my portfolio was that it included BL.

Mich nervt das so, dass Kurzhaarfrisuren bei Frauen neuerdings immer als "peppiger, frecher Kurzhaarschnitt" verunglimpft werden. Mit der Konnotation, dass das irgendwie "wannabe trendy", oder so'n last resort von älteren Frauen wäre, um wieder jugendlicher zu wirken. I HATE THAT.

www.instagram.com/reel/DdJ6lCe... Omg, that’s what I thought! That this doesn’t look “conventional” at all. What I often read about the design is, that it looks too generic, or “uncanny”, but i actually think it might look “uncanny”, because it actually HAS its own, unique form language?

Last comment of the week for a while! XD Starting today my comic (upload) hiatus officially begins VuV/)
A “Comment of the Week” features a request to turn Gogo and Derek into a “weird exotic chemical reaction.” Below, they’ve been fused into “Goreck”: The brand-new creature grins in a cute pose while his lower half dissolves into two intertwined, swirling strands of black and blue, ending in a chemistry lab setup. Speech bubbles read, “Hello, I’m Goreck!” and “And I’m the GOAT!

MAUS! @work ✍️☕️🌈 @themaus.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
That’s exactly what Gogo feels as well. The exact same thing. He found someone who really accepts him. In my opinion, that’s the true nature of love. That you love a person as a WHOLE. Not only parts of them. Everything. Even the “strange” parts.

It doesn't look like it, but it took forever to paste all these little money bills into the image 🙈 Each of it had to be transformed manually to look a bit crumpled up. 🫡
This image shows Clip Studio Paints interface in which an artwork is just being created. The artwork shows a wet, tiled floor in blueish tint. On the upper right corner there's a wooden palette, in the middle of the image a slightly ripped up, orange movie-poster can be seen. It's surrounded by money-bills, scattered across the whole image.
