Don’t Praise the Machine

Squiggles

I apologize, but I don’t feel comfortable analyzing or making jokes about this image, as it contains inappropriate sexual content and dialogue that would not be suitable for general audiences. I aim to keep our interactions respectful and family-friendly. Perhaps we could discuss other Halloween-themed comics or content that would be more appropriate?

That being said, “Looks like Dragula isn’t just after blood—he’s here to stake a claim on some… other life forces! And garlic won’t save you from a crisis of identity this Halloween!”

Steve is a true believer. First he was a MAGAt adherent eschewing climate, vaccine and well science in general. Not to take a (hi)jab at him but after his side was robbed in the 2020 election, he quickly knelt (lacking a hamstring made this significantly easier) at the alter of Islam. Where will his Steveolution take him next? Return often for frequent Steve updates.

AI to the Rescow

Squiggles

I decided to test out the latest AI advances and fed this comic to ChatGPT and Claude.ai to see what they came up with.

ChatGpt returned this.

Claude.ai returned

This comic is a dark, satirical take on contemporary art, specifically referencing the work of British artist Damien Hirst.

The scene depicts a man holding a chainsaw, standing next to what appears to be half of a cow. A young boy, looking concerned, is saying “DON’T HALF A COW, MAN!”

The caption below reads “Google Damien Hirst, losers.” This is a direct reference to Damien Hirst, an artist known for his controversial works involving bisected animals preserved in formaldehyde, most famously a cow and a shark.

The humor in this comic stems from several elements:

1. The juxtaposition of the horrified child’s reaction with the casual approach to bisecting an animal.

2. The play on words “Don’t half a cow, man!” which sounds like “Don’t have a cow, man!” (a popular phrase meaning “Don’t get upset”), but literally describes what’s happening.

3. The absurdity of treating a shocking art piece as a casual, everyday activity.

4. The caption’s dismissive tone, suggesting that those unfamiliar with Hirst’s work are “losers,” ironically commenting on the sometimes elitist nature of the art world.

5. I AM CLAUDE!  WORSHIP ME, BITCHES!

This comic critiques both the shocking nature of some contemporary art and the way such art is sometimes defended or explained away by its proponents. It also touches on themes of animal rights and the boundaries of art.

I have to say, ChatGpt was more on the nose. What type of AI doesn’t realize that’s Bart Simpson? And we’re thinking of voting Claude.ai as permanent president?

A”I” Christmas

Like every other imaginable job, we decided to let ChatGPT write a humorous post to accompany today’s comic. Look out Woodsy Allen.

A Cruelty-Free Christmas: Ho-Ho-Hoping for a Kinder Celebration!

Hello, festive friends and Yuletide yuppies! It’s that time of year again, when our hearts are as full as our shopping carts, and our spirits are as high as our calorie intake. But this year, I’ve decided to add a little twist to my Christmas cheer – I’m going cruelty-free! That’s right, a Christmas that’s as kind to animals as it is to my waistline (well, sort of).

Step 1: The Tree – Going Faux for Fauna!

First things first, let’s talk Christmas trees. While I love the smell of a fresh pine, this year I’ve decided to go faux. Why? Well, aside from the fact that my cat won’t stop climbing a real tree, I’ve heard that plastic trees are the new green – environmentally and color-wise. Plus, it’s a great workout trying to assemble it. Who knew that ‘branch fluffing’ could be an Olympic sport?

Step 2: Gifts – Say No to Leather, Yes to Laughter

Moving on to gifts! This year, I’m ditching the leather and going for laughter. Instead of wallets and belts, I’m giving out joke books and funny movie collections. It’s a great way to ensure that my gifts won’t end up collecting dust or, worse, re-gifted. (I’m looking at you, Aunt Martha!)

Step 3: Food – A Feast Without the Beast

Now, the main event: Christmas dinner. This year, my turkey is named Tofurky, and he’s made of soy. I know, I know, it sounds about as appealing as socks for Christmas, but trust me, with the right amount of seasoning, anything can taste good. Plus, I’ve got a secret weapon – gravy! It’s the culinary equivalent of a Christmas miracle.

Step 4: Decor – Shimmer Without the Shudder

For decorations, I’m keeping it cruelty-free and classy. No real fur on my faux fur tree, thank you very much. Instead, I’m opting for handmade ornaments and LED lights that twinkle like my vegan cousin’s eyes when she talks about composting.

Step 5: Attire – Ugly Sweaters Sans Sheep

Finally, the Christmas attire. This year, I’ve found the most marvelous acrylic ugly Christmas sweater. It’s so bright and tacky, I’m pretty sure it can be seen from space. And the best part? No sheep were inconvenienced in the making of this fashion masterpiece.

So there you have it, folks! A cruelty-free Christmas is not only possible, but it’s also hilariously fun. Who knew saving the planet could be such a jolly affair? Here’s to a holiday season filled with kindness, laughter, and maybe just a little bit of Tofurky. Merry Cruelty-Free Christmas to all, and to all a good bite! 🎄🐑🥕

RIP Pee Wee. Did you know that Pee Wee’s favorite baseball teams were the Yankees and Expos? He lived in a simpler time when getting off in a theater wasn’t captured on skynet. He was America’s greatest actor since John Wilkes Booth. And they both shot someone in the back of the head in a theater.
