Dicking Around
I got a new tablet and since it’s the offseason I’ve mostly been dicking around with it since who cares it’s June half my readers aren’t even here. Except you. You are. That means you are cooler and sexier than everyone else, unless you read this sometime down the road, in which case, hey! You are still cool and sexy for going back through the archive.
Anyway I had this image stuck in my mind since Pat Mahomes annoying little tiktok brother Jackson Mahomes graduated from an annoying internet personality to officially a douche when he was charged with 3 counts of Sexual Battery back in early May. Never could figure out a comic to write around it, so I just did this.
Also been doing a dumb thing every week for my social media pages but haven’t posted them here, so here’s a good excuse to photodump
Since Twitter continues to die under the control of faux iron man I joined Bluesky if any of you have managed to get on as well: (@drawplaydave.bsky.social) I’ve been trying to use Instagram more often this year too. I also have a Mastodon account, but I don’t use it, because Mastondon is full of earnest front-of-the-class types. Terrible place to shitpost.
Okay, I got three things after looking at today’s comic:
1: So what tablet did you get?
2: I rather use Mastodon, it’s hard to use at first, but once you get the hang of it, it’s easy to use, and it’s more stable than BlueSky and definitely Twitter. I would give the fediverse another chance if I were you, considering Blue Sky is likely going to be headed in same direction as Twitter in long run.
3: Jackson Mahomes as Beaker makes sense. He’s always “Me-me-me-me-me” on TikTok (which if you have it installed, well, you’re too late, that communist country is spying on you, even after you uninstall it) and that’s what Beaker can only say.
There’s no sports posting on Mastodon and everyone there was boring, and the confusing nature of the site makes the barrier for entry harder than it has to be. I’ll use it if Twitter officially dies and Bluesky doesn’t hold up, but right now BS is much closer to what I prefer
But what tablet did you get? Is it a Cintiq? My Cintiq is almost 10 years old, and while I still love it, the power cable doesn’t work well at all, and I’m itching to buy a new one.
Prison may be a more preferable outcome for Jackson Mahomes than “testing” whatever Bunsen Honeydew cooks up in his lab.
I don’t get Mastodon. I couldn’t find a decent server where the good sports shitposters were, so I ended up stuck on the equivalent of those overzealous sports Facebook groups.
The lack of good sports scene on Mastodon was killing me. It was nothing but earnest tech industry workers since they are the ones most able to understand it and needed a calm space away from twitter
Didn’t expect TL16 to have such a tiny … thumb.
Run away, flee, there is actually free speech on Twitter now. We can’t sensor the truth anymore and only have our propagandist lies the only thing being seen. Twitter isn’t dying and even if it was good riddance anyway.
