hi it’s em spent a decade in ops / claims now i build small tools with ai, post the messy version, and train for a half i don’t use ai to write these (you’ll see the typos) if you like free tools, build-in-public, and being slightly unhinged about models, let’s connect šŸ‘‹ (i dont have a dog btw)

a couple people asked how i make these so here's the whole process @purva @Creativemarggie (to answer your question šŸ˜„) 1. doodle the idea on a post-it or use my image as reference 2. upload it to the image gen as a style reference (GPT image) 3. notice something funny online, turn it into a scene prompt template below šŸ‘‡

galaxy image: Hand-drawn doodle in a minimal stick-figure style on off-white paper, thin black ink lines, soft pastel accents. A stick figure girl with long messy black scribbled hair sits cross-legged on a cozy bed with pillows, holding a soda can with a straw in one hand and a phone in the other. Her expression is deadpan and smug: a knowing closed-mouth half smile, one eyebrow raised, eyes slightly narrowed, looking at her phone. No blush, no hearts. On the phone screen: two swirly pastel galaxies against a dark starry sky, their long curved tails reaching toward each other like arms locked in an arm wrestle, with small effort lines around them. A small upvote arrow under the image. A small hand-drawn speech bubble from the girl reads "this could be us..." in handwritten lowercase. A few tiny sparkles around the phone. Lots of white space. Small handwritten signature bottom right: "add your signature here "

Use the attached image as the exact style reference. Crude, simple doodle, like a quick sketch in a notes app. Wobbly single-weight black pen lines, stick-figure bodies, round heads with dot eyes and a simple line mouth. Flat pastel fill only on 1–2 objects, lots of empty cream background. Handwritten lowercase text. Scene: [describe your joke here] NO shading, NO gradients, NO chibi or anime style, NO blush, NO detailed clothing, NO extra props. Keep it ugly-cute and minimal.

I like to live dangerously from time to time so if I’ve had too much coffee, then I sign in with Google. If I’ve just watched a Netflix documentary, I’ll go with email + password
