Hey Jacob, I'd love the opportunity to work with you. Here are some of my more environmental comic work and you can find a few more examples on my insta here- www.instagram.com/mdpenman
If you like the look of this stuff I'd be happy to email you over some pdfs of the finished comics too.
Thanks!

Even accepting the premise that AI produces useful writing (which no one should), using AI in education is like using a forklift at the gym. The weights do not actually need to be moved from place to place. That is not the work. The work is what happens within you.

That was the deal when I worked on The Book of Fuligin by @ramonkey.bsky.social and @strangers.bsky.social No guff and contributor focussed stretch goals. Really refreshing folks to work with :)

Filled it in. What an absolute shambles of a form. Had some of the most leading questions I've ever seen and odd spelling mistakes throughout. It seemed tailor made to absolutely waste my time.
