Something a bit odd, not a mech this time either lol - drew it a while ago and just decided to try and colour it on my phone! Fun times. I set it to NSFW just cause it has boobies. But it's pretty ugly so I don't think it's a big deal #weirdo #art #sketch #sketchbook #characterdesign #quick #creature #creaturedesign #creativetoot #mastoart #nsfw #fantasy

Forever Young

The Stargrave-Mason Orgone Transductor permits courts to take energy from a defendant to literally grant a plaintiff back the amount of good life they lost. Some radicals claim this grants the young a monopoly on justice.

@Cobalt I'm attempting to use more hashtags than I used to; I grew up too long ago for social media to be part of my instincts, so I keep forgetting they exist.

I believe the etiquette on many instances is to use more than other networks anyway because one can't search toots apart from through hashtags.

Just Deserts

The Realm of Hollowed Artistry presents to each person as their most noted achievement except with one defining feature missing. To some this is heaven, to others hell.

@johnribbon I got really into anything just after Gibson's Sprawl series was released. But, going back to many of the books from that time, the gripping-to-superficial ratio is quite high.

The beauty of a smile remains on the inside

@aaribaud Poker is a mix of statistics and social interaction; so perhaps they wanted to explore the mushy edges of certainty.

Red Meat

An ancient Danish text grants the reader the form and abilities of what they eat - but only while it is in your system. The final page, detailing how to end the power, has been torn out.

@johnribbon Electric Sheep is (like all of Dick's work) cerebral rather than visual; whereas Gibson writes the future aesthetic.

So, the soul of is arguably Dick but the look is post-Gernsback via Sterling, Headroom, and Gibson.

We Are Updating Our Occult Privacy Policy

At some point in the last few years, we have:

) Viewed you through a scrying pool and/or mirror
) Crafted a double of you from blood and willpower and used it to manipulate your moods and actions and/or
) Sunk into a dark liquid pool, then rose again to the surface but the surface was your eyes, through which we saw all you saw, thought as you thought, as intimate as breath.

Due to new legislation, now we have to ask:
Can we keep doing all that?

@aaribaud Did you intend to capture "hoping to win"?

Because it works as a hopeful future where robots and humans are friends rather than evolutionary adversaries too.

Before the townsfolk could react, the space zombies had landed and overrun the desert town of Sparks, Nevada. The survivors took refuge in oldest casino, The Silver Coin--hoping against hope they could defend old building from the horde. Old Travis McCarthy peered through the main saloon doors to see a Space Zombie wearing is wife Martha's dress. Rage like he had never felt burned through him as he grabbed his Remington pump action 12-gauge. Martha must be avenged!

Traction

In dwarven culture, shortness (permitting one to fit in more tunnels) is the greatest sign of virtue. To mark each criminal as dishonoured forever, the Scant King has decreed all sentences are served under tension, making them truly a stretch.
