A Conscience And Nonsense comic. Nonsense asks Conscience, "Can I eat pizza on your collectible painting?" Conscience replies, "But of course. And why not have a watermelon with a hot dog slathered in mustard?" Nonsense says, "I'm actually not that hungry anymore. Now about your painting..."
It was just a print.

Just Another Comic

But NOT just another comic strip!

Take a Look Around

No New Artificial Intelligence

A cartoon character named Steve does standup comedy.
Would you listen if someone spoke a truth that made you uncomfortable.

You spoke. We listened. Artificial Intelligence is harming artists, writers, workers, communities, the economy, the planet and individuals who struggle with mental health concerns and is even being used as a tool for thought control and censorship. Conscience And Nonsense Magazine is committing to discontinue the creation of new AI images for use on this site, our comics, our marketing, social media presence, advertising and messaging. We will not accept articles written by non human Language Learning Machines. We will not summarize anything using AI. We will not automatically discount anything contributed that has or used AI in its creation. That is simply because we believe zero tolerance policies make zero sense. We are simply dedicated to preserving human health, well-being, creativity, copyright and harmony. We had a lot of fun using what we now realize is a mostly harmful technology when it comes to the world of creative endeavor. But it’s time to step back and help be part of the solution to the harm that has been caused by this new and uncontrolled tool. Certain images created with AI will continue to be visible on our site as we believe in preserving and recycling images that have already been created. No new content generation using AI. Take the commitment with us today.

The painting, "A Big Red 'E'," by Nathan Hyatt.
AI images on this magazine will be replaced by human created content like this painting.
