Python As A Follower

a writing competition i was going to participate in again this year has announced that they now allow AI generated content to be submitted

their reasoning being that "we couldn't ban it even if we wanted to, every writer already uses it anyway"

"Every writer"?

come on

The Lamb

Shoutout to characters that are both genuinely deeply kind and also genuinely terrifying and willing to spill buckets worth of blood to get something done. And neither of these are an act, they're just both very true.

I finally made the meme I've had in my head for over a year

Pros and cons of being on the top bunk

Pros: you feel like the alpha sibling, the monster under the bed can't reach you, you get to cuddle the cat without the dog scaring it off, and you feel like king/queen of the world

Cons: you can fall off.

here is a personal pet project, based on this post by @one-time-i-dreamt

This is my first elaborate original comic. I was so excited that I even made a cover for this. I would like to mention @jackie-welless,  the author of the story, the person who had this dream, who gave me the permission to draw it out and helped me a shit ton with the research. This would not have been possible without them.

i go to the shop and I ask if they have any raspberries. they say no, they used to sell raspberries, but they haven't had any in stock in the last 15 years. I ask if there's somewhere else I can go to buy raspberries. They say no, with confidence and pride, they're the only shop around who has ever sold or will ever sell raspberries. Other shops might sell other fruit, sure, but they have a monopoly on all raspberries forever. I ask if they're possibly planning on them selling them again in future? they say they can't tell me that.

on the way home, I encounter someone eating raspberries. I ask and they tell me that they grow their own, they got some seeds from the shop back in The Raspberry Days and kept them. They take me to a field of many beautiful raspberry plants and invite me to pick my own, they're free for all the town to pick whenever they'd like.

someone comes up behind us. It's the shop manager, President of Nintendo Shuntaro Furukawa. he hatefully throws a bob-omb that blows up and kills both of us instantly for stealing 200 trillion dollars worth of potential Raspberry Shop That Doesn't Do Raspberries Anymore profits that they weren't making and then he turns around to the camera with a big thumbs up and says don't do piracy or something ok please

This is exactly how I eat applesauce

This is Gus who gets applesauce as a treat for being a good boy

i love animals where your first impression is "oh this is a PUPPY!" and then it opens its mouth and you realize you're looking at a living weapon that, if domesticated, would commit war crimes. repeatedly.
