@davidrevoy Where's the 'KaPop!'?"
@davidrevoy I see you included the extra finger, nicely done! Cepper is nothing if not committed to the cause! 😏
At first I thought this image was from a previous comic where she'd been blowing bubbles. Then I counted the fingers.
@RBuzz It's a remix from episode 65 "Bubble Therapy", panel 3, first published in mid august:
https://www.peppercarrot.com/en/miniFantasyTheater/065.html
The main edit I did today is that I changed her facial expression, the lace on her dress, the fingers, and removed the Avian Intelligence parrot.
@davidrevoy the happiness we all feel!
@davidrevoy Nah, it's Avian Inteligence. *Joke*
@davidrevoy its always such a joy to see your artwork on my timeline.
@davidrevoy : The Avians have been rendered flightless! 😆
I’m blessed to be living my best life, and I believe in giving back. ❤️ I’m giving out $20K to the first 10 people who message me “GRACE.” I understand that times are hard, and I want to help ease someone’s financial burden. Send your message to @manager4302. 🙏
@davidrevoy j'adore ses doigts 😋
@davidrevoy Un petit plaisir malin (que je partage volontiers)
@davidrevoy
Gnehehehehehe

Cepper, the poster child of the AI resistance.
@davidrevoy : le passe temps préféré de Pacôme Hégésippe Adislas, comte de Champignac.
@ploum @davidrevoy Pacôme Hégésippe Adélard Ladislas, comte de Champignac; y'a un p'tit cocktail au milieu 😛
@oaktree @davidrevoy : suis fatigué moi ! Faut que je les relise ;-)
@ploum @davidrevoy en écho à notre époque :

Le Voyageur du Mésozoïque (pour le savant qui se fait brouter)
@mangeurdenuage Nothing, just enjoying watching the bubbles popping; (eg. after reading article like https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/stocks/articles/analysts-investors-react-ai-market-011114659.html )
@davidrevoy Ah yes. You gotta hand it to her for giving the right subtext
@davidrevoy still the magic hands 
@davidrevoy Malevolent smile! 😈
@davidrevoy elle va bientôt pouvoir rendre le 6eme doigt :)
@davidrevoy Free from Avian Inteligence at last? Will she be dealing with the aftermath suffering people that no longer know how to do things? xD
@Erebus_Amauro Well, today I was supposed to write all of this, but I'm a bit lost at finding what will be my new directions. I just finished my "poisoning arc" (good timing), but with the recent changes in the stock market, I have the feeling the news and reality can quickly outpace my metaphor if things are collapsing at this speed.
I'll probably wait until at least the last moment (sunday evening writing session) as I need full Monday + Tuesday + Wednesday for the production.
@davidrevoy @Erebus_Amauro Don’t worry too much about lagging behind a little bit, being able to cover things in retrospect could also prove to be beneficial to the story, after all
@aria @Erebus_Amauro Thank you Ari. You are right, it's also risky to handle a news while it's too hot. I'll try to keep that in mind.
@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org Are we going to have roasted Avian Intelligence for dinner tomorrow?
@davidrevoy now I’m counting the fingers everytime… You ruined me 😂
@davidrevoy feelings overload
@davidrevoy the vibes are gooooood
@davidrevoy So, the Avian Intelligence has fled? 😁
@davidrevoy PURÉE, JE VIENS SEULEMENT DE COMPRENDRE LA BLAGUE 😭.
@Sylvhem @davidrevoy encore une fois, merci le alt (et je connais pourtant les aventures de Cepper par coeur)
@orange_lux @Sylvhem Désolé d'être un peu cryptique parfois, mais je sais qu'ici sur le Fediverse il y a plein de gens très cortiqué et attentif, donc j'en profite un peu

@davidrevoy Non mais, rétrospectivement, c’est assez évident 😭.
@davidrevoy as expected.
The only problem is unfortunate timing, in that the Democrats, through right-wing propaganda, will be blamed for all of it. And if it comes to a true crash and subsequent recession of even depression it will be the Dems who dunnit.. and suddenly a GOP-fascist presidential candidate, who can formulate a coherent sentence, makes a chance again in the next US elections.
@davidrevoy Can't help…, what's the middle finger when you have 6 of them? Is it the one in the middle of the 5 ones that are together? Do you raise finger 3&4 together? Endless wondering…
@davidrevoy cela fait un paquet de bagues à acheter
@davidrevoy remarkable how quickly I went from finding the additional finger offputting to being jealous
This got flagged in my AI filter, and when I clicked to reveal I was confused.
At first.
ehehehhehee
@albinanigans Yes, many AI detection model now confound my works for AI generated. Totally normal; I largely taught them (without my consent) how to align this pixels in the order they consider now AI generated.
Thank you for doing the extra effort of checking and for the feedback!
@davidrevoy and not a single Avian Intelligence in sight.
@davidrevoy surprised to find 'schadenfreude' in the Alt-Text... is there really no English word for that? (... and what does that tell about Germans?) I must confess: I sometimes do have a lot of that... Anyways: I fully agree! *Schadenfreude*
@guineasofbayeux @davidrevoy I suppose one could say that Schadenfreude is the English word for that, it just happens to be a loanword from German. Like "beige" from French. According to Wikipedia it's been used in English since the 1850s and in German since the 1740s, and those dates are closer together than I expected. Its English usage is actually older than that of "beige"!
@tarix29 @guineasofbayeux Oh, TIL I could use "beige" in English. Nice!
(edit: I found more about it here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beige )
I can think of some synonyms, but none of them quite convey what it's trying to get at.
...except maybe lulz, but I figured it may be frowned upon due to it being associated with Channish bullshit
@albinanigans @guineasofbayeux According to Wikipedia, the closest word in English would be "gloat", but as a non native (French here) I'm not familiar with how ring this one.
@davidrevoy @albinanigans @guineasofbayeux As a native (US, New England) English speaker...schadenfreude is a pretty widely-used word for this around here. Gloating is *kinda* connected but it's not as specific and I don't think it would be a good replacement.
English loves borrowing random words and phrases from other languages and I reckon this is just one of those cases
@davidrevoy
Rhaa ce petit air machiavélique satisfait 😃
@davidrevoy the sheer schadenfreude in Cepper's expression is what we're all feeling
@elfi wait did something substantial happen, or it's just that the billionaire casino (aka stock market) is Having A Bad Day? @davidrevoy
@flaki @davidrevoy I think "The biggest single-day market-cap loss in the history of the Nasdaq" after a series of significant losses extending back past the US midterms (now becoming the popular thing to pin the blame to) is more than just a Bad Day but I look forward to further news :)
@elfi @davidrevoy
we can only hope that was the ‘little nudge’ this 🫧 needed
@davidrevoy I found a heart in the bubbles!
