Can't it be reposted in November if you're in North America? (Love it, though!)

5. Because it's fun! I like coming up with characters for stuff. Kinda hard to qualify it as a thing.

(I'd also argue they didn't rebel so much as "did what they were designed to do, which their creators never considered would impact THEM, and if that's not a metaphor for right now)

Yep. And buggy AI made by a species that was already doing what the Reapers were doing re: the mind control But they were too lazy to use mind control to be waited on hand and foot so they made machines to do it for them

4. *Sarcastic tone* do I have any villain OCs But seriously though, so so many, going back to my first one Tekno. I drew a ton of them for an old OC Q&A meme years ago (and then never exported it to my phone? Ugh) I've not done many of late, come to think, but my own standin is villain coded so

It's crazy to find out that yes, this whole time, small business people DID actually want cartoon mascots to promote their businesses on the sides of their trucks and on billboards, they just didn't want to pay anyone for it. Then ai finally came along and solved that for them. How truly American.

The problem with ripping out the lore, too, is it helps establish that the Reapers were wrong/the Conduit was a flawed observer because they themselves were working off of biases despite claiming to be more enlightened

I am sorry to say that yeah it’s not looking good

I think the KOG/Hellaverse comparisons stem from people mistaking “mature” writing with NOT being a black comedy. They instantly associate the latter as a lesser art form that has nothing substantial to say.

3. At this point, owing to the MOUNTAIN of art commissions I've gotten of her and all the stickers I've drawn this year, it's pretty clearly Midori. I'm mad at myself I've not produced any proper fiction with her yet

2. Newest OC is probably my D&D character Sophie. I still don't know a lot about her backstory but that's 100% by design - she grew up alone in a metal mask in a prison and has only known the outside world (or her own face!) for maybe a couple weeks now at most. She's fun to play as!

1. Oldest OC? First proper one is probably my self-insert Technoraptor leader of the same screen name. Which would have been close to 30 years ago now. I don't draw them much these days. But they're still important in my lore. I have a painted commission on my wall of them!

Let's do this too; it's been awhile since I've done an OC meme

BRENNAN: Nidal Hasan is in a wheelchair. Doesn't the administration risk livestreaming this and making him a martyr? Couldn't this be a risk to the homeland? MARKWAYNE MULLIN: No one has to watch it B: Well then why are you livestreaming it? MULLIN: The president is restoring American values

Remember this the next time you read another idiotic piece asking "wHy dO pRoFesSorS aLL vOtE foR DeMoCraTs?" It's a real mystery why more faculty don't back the party that's actively working to destroy them and their work.

I think it's good that candidates are referring to their opponents as Nazis and Klansmen, because they are! It's true! It's good to say true things!

I dont want nobody bad mouthing comic sans these days bc this AI thumbnail scratchy font is literally everywhere I look and people just go with it
