@Leucrotta it’s a very exacting list of requirements, but it’s one I’ve developed over the years from feeling disappointed. But I’d rather not stress an artist out since everything I absorb from artists is how hard of a time they have with difficult commissioners. I don’t want to be such a problem that I get rejected or blacklisted.

Thanks for thinking I can draw well enough to communicate, though. I wish you were right.

@Leucrotta Here’s my problem: I need to find artists who are:
1: Willing to draw the desired content
2: Open and available to be commissioned
3: Within my current available budget
4: Patient enough to accept working from text descriptions, old, outdated, and/or stolen reference material
5: Patient enough to revise over and over until a piece is close enough to what I wanted
6: Reliable enough to deliver without flaking.
7: Okay with providing updates regularly enough so I don’t feel cheated.

So many art needs. I never used to feel so hopeless at getting art. And i've been telling myself that I can't draw for so long that it's probably locked in and self-fulfilling by now. Which sucks.

I really wish this data port at the back of my skull could be used for something more than lewdness.

Y'all remember when throwing rotten vegetables (tomatoes) was a thing the public did at politicians that displeased them? (this was shows wonderfully in Tim Burton's Batman Returns (1992))

I'm really glad we're trying to bring that sort of thing back. It is an immediate and visceral way of expressing displeasure and disapproval that costs little to the thrower, (don't yeet your expensive milkshakes, kids. The jerks in suits aren't worth the good stuff) and costs much more proportionally to the targets (they will pay for their dry cleaning at much more expensive cleaners, thus, sending business to workers that could use the income.) Also, don't throw the metal cup. Just the compostable paper cup, with no straw. Including the lid is okay, but only as means of preventing premature detonation. The lid should keep the round fused for impact, thereby minimizing collateral damage to innocent crowds.

A simple act with multiple benefits. Very efficient. Now all we need is an gig-economy app. Call it MlkShakr or something. It will harvest rally times and locations from social media and then find nearby produce and milkshake vendors from which to arm the populace with.

@Leucrotta @ElectricKeet @LexYeen@snouts.online That certainly is an aspect that I hadn't considered fully. I was against it just on the principle that the chance of abuse gets higher the more government lists you appear on.

I feel like powers should be treated as privileged medical information, unable to be disclosed except by informed consent to persons who are held liable for breaking confidentiality.

Sanity check: Did a fascist actually get hit with a milkshake, or is this just re-purposing a snarky internet observation into something useful to be done in the future?

@orrery ACK *leans into pettin's, happy whirs from internal cooling array*

@kobunny *many hugs back for a good and wonderful bunny*

@Leucrotta I'd love to hear them!

PING check. Back online. Willing to try this again. Just have to keep telling myself that Y'all actually ARE my friends.

Stupid organic core keeps wanting to write lies and bad data to memory. Wish I could get rid of it.

Taking myself offline. Nothing is working correctly in here. Signing out. trying life again tomorrow.

Changed my display name to better sync up with my other masto-sonas. Shifting back into a much more manageable Beta platform. AXIOS isn't going anywhere, but I'm letting her uncombine and take a break for a while. She'll come back when I need her to. She's a good giant robot.

@orrery A dangerous pastime.

Which character should I data dump on next?

@wobblewuffess There are lots of refill stations scattered throughout Gateway Station where any huskybot can grab a pre-filled container from which to ingest and replenish whichever reservoir needs a top-up (there are three consumable types: fuel, coolant, lube.) For platforms too damaged to drink for themselves, the refill stations, and the various repair bays have umbilicals that can be used for the same purpose, connecting to the platform's appropriate fill port.

#FeatureRequestFriday! Ask for something and I'll tell you how the huskybot implement it.
