I freaking love your "comics" (better called surreal output --verbose). The mix of Foss/hacker mixed topics mixed with tons of LSD kind of cyberpunk characters and a hint of comedy/craziness.

Well adding to that the amazing artwork and the unique drawing style.

In a few words: Foss driven Cruelty Squad like with hints of unavoidable depression.

surreal output --verbose

The exact question I clicked on this community for.

I think I feel ... safe here?

And you are. You've found the place where we found the sanctuary we've had been looking for for so long ...

And I just started hacking some stuff together to learn the gopher protocol. Your comment is well timed 😊

In all seriousness - I really enjoy your art. I look forward to seeing more of it.

And the surrealist automata thing is pretty cool.

Reading this almost felt like being given permission. I've had a project in the back of my mind for the past year, but it's kinda pointless and would probably be controversial. For all I talk about software being fundamentally a creative process, I've never really considered treating it like art

Andre Breton and Vitezslav Nezval made me do it!
