Header image for Alyssa Wejebe's column Nonhuman Meditations, featuring a still from the cartoon Gravity Falls, featuring an unsettling rainbow unicorn. Headline reads: Sensing and Leaving the Unicorn Trap

"I normally don’t care for the unicorn...The dinosaur-to-dragon
pipeline was a natural fit for me." @alyssawejebe.bsky.social resents the gender pressures of unicorns, but also manages to find some cool ones. Just, you know, not DRAGON cool.

When the Darkness comes, cabals rise and fall. But they do it together.

Southeast Asian Fantasy: A group of adventurers posing and looking at the camera. From the back, a monkey-folk (gibbon), looking like a monk, holding a khakkhara with his other hand making a mudra. In front, a girl, holding a keris, as if casting a spell. Beside her, a binturong-folk, wielding a machete. A pig-folk holding two short axes in both hands stands in front them.

Welcoming 2026 with the tenacity displayed by this party!

"Predator: Badlands" rewrites the rules of the #Predator franchise with exhilarating, futuristic action and, more importantly, depth and character to spare.

Like the original, it challenges regressive masculine values, TheWrap film critic William Bibbiani says.

It's still so crazy (in a good way) to me that these games I worked on 25 years ago are still finding new audiences today. Warms my heart, and I'm super glad that the @nightdivestudios.bsky.social folks made the SS1 & SS2 remasters.

Android and Human Solidarity Forever - Unwinnable It is now 2025, and generative “artificial intelligence” consumes all of the oxygen in the discourse and on the planet.

"Playing through Detroit: Become Human, it seems unbearably short-sighted in its view of humanity."

After playing Detroit: Become Human in 2025, @rubeck.bsky.social finds its future visions lacking:

I really had never appreciated the value of the hard parts of creative work fully before genAI showed up with its genie-like offer of shortcuts, or understood what a trap those shortcuts truly are. Even though humanity has been telling cautionary stories about genies and fae bargains for millennia!

Sketchbook comic. Panel 1: a disembodied voice says “I KNOW a.i. is ethically, ecologically and esthetically awful, but I just gotta say…” Lucy is reacting with a ._. Face and thinking “do ya? Do ya really GOTTA?” Panel 2: Lucy’s thought bubble reads: “do you just GOTTA recite some tired anecdote using the phrase ‘I just typed it in!’ That just amounts to you admitting that your cheapness, laziness and poor taste outweighs your unexamined ethical code?”

Sketchbook comic page 2: Panel 1: Lucy’s thought bubble reads “and, at the very least, do you GOTTA say it to ME?” She is turning away, saying “ok I’m gonna go, um, get a snack.” Panel 2: another disembodied voice is saying “Lucy! You’re an artist— whattaya think about a.i? Ya know, it may be bad, but I JUST GOTTA SAY…” Lucy is startled, dropping a chip.

Sketchbook comic page 3: Panel 1: Lucy is surrounded by speech bubbles and text, repeating the phrase “gotta say…” she looks terrified. Panel 2: she is fleeing the repeated “gotta say”s, yelling “you gotta live with yourselves, but I don’t gotta!” A note with a heart at the end reads “stop doing this I will not absolve you.”

Gotta say…
