Whether you need a bit of artistic inspiration or a solid dose of silliness, Audity can be relied on to paint a smile on your face.

Character designer Audrey Hopkins has been thrilling her 13.2 million followers on TikTok with her whimsical and weird drawings on her Audity channel. There, she draws inspiration from movies, TV, music, and her husband, Richard Conley, to create wonderfully silly — and oft sexy — characters.

She's made a Soda Pop hunk inspired by KPop Demon Hunters, crafted illustrations of all 50 states as people, and re-imagined her hubby in a slew of creative ways, including merman and anime babe.

Hopkins also creates cartoon character mash-ups, like Beauty and the Beast's Lumiere with Child's Play's Chucky. And for those seeking similarly chaotic drawing challenges, she and Conley have created the WannaDraw app, which generates random pairings as a jumping-off point for users to doodle wild sketches all their own.

SEE ALSO: Audity credits her success to her muse and keeping things fun

In a joint interview in Mashable's Creator Hub at Vidcon 2026, Hopkins and Conley also revealed which tools of the trade they've employed in their content creation.

For those artists looking to take their digital drawing to the next level, this In My Bag is for you.

Audity's essentials for digital drawing

"First one that I definitely can't live without is definitely my iPad, that's what I draw on," Hopkins began.

To that Conley gently interjected, "iPad Pro."

"Yeah, iPad Pro," she concurred, noting, "He does all the technical stuff for me. But yeah, my iPad Pro and my [Apple] pencil — which I lose constantly. I don't know why, but it always goes into the ether [once] you put it down."

From there, Conley noted, "and the very thick grip—"

"My pencil grip!" She chirped, finishing his sentence, "Dear God, without that pencil grip — I highly recommend anyone out there with an Apple pencil, get you a pencil grip."

Audity noted that drawing so much can cause muscle pain, and she's found the grip is an aid in reducing strain. "I've been having pretty bad carpal tunnel," she noted, "So I've been getting more braces and other things like that, and like compression stuff."

Her other big tool: their app, WannaDraw.

Conley, the app's designer, explained Wanna Draw's origins, saying, "In 2020, Audrey did the random drawing generator series. And she was using just random gif images on Google Images. And she ran out of options after a few videos. We wanted to expand to a more complicated idea prompt/generator kind of thing. So we made an iPhone/Android app. It's been a lot. It's been a big learning process."

Hopkins added that she'd ask Conley, who has a background in web design, if he could build her a webpage to generate mash-up suggestions. It began as a gif. "Then people started asking where they could use it," she recalled.

They were approached by developers who showed an interest in building such an app. Hopkins noted Conley "had only ever made websites at that point." But rather than handing off their idea to an outside developer, he did the research at their kitchen table and learned how to make an app all their own.

Five years later, WannaDraw has over a million downloads, and while she writes the prompts, he's still the one maintaining Wanna Draw's tech side.

Conley said, "It's a two-person team, just her and I on the app. So it's a little silly, but it's —"

"Meant to be!" Hopkins interjected, finishing the thought. "You know? We're a little silly."

Dropout is an Audity essential

In our Creator Playbook interview, Hopkins shared that her dream project would be creating the character designs for Dropout's popular actual play series Dimension 20, created by Brennan Lee Mulligan. So, it's little surprise that she counts a Dropout subscription as an essential to her process.

She likes to have videos or music on while she draws, and Dropout has plenty that inspires her. "Dropout Subscription is a must, actually," she mused. "I watch their stuff a lot. I like consuming other really interesting things, and [supporting] people who make really unique types of media. Like, I feel like just being around and seeing other people who are super passionate about what they're doing is the thing that inspires me more than anything else," she said, then turned to Conley and added, "That and you!"

New parenthood becomes a nightmare right out of Finnish folklore in Hanna Bergholm's Nightborn.

The Hatching director once again pulls us into a disturbing, visceral tale of maternity, leaning on lore to explore, as Bergholm says in the film's press notes, "the messy, difficult, and sometimes 'ugly' side of parental love." Compartment No. 6's Seidi Haarla and Harry Potter star Rupert Grint are pushed to the limit in this body horror, with a word of caution, perhaps, for viewers who've recently become parents.

But what about that wild ending? What does it all mean? If you haven't watched the Shudder film, beware the spoilers ahead — and really, go and watch it. It'll mess you up.

SEE ALSO: Horrific 'Nightborn' trailer looks like one for new parents to avoid What is Nightborn about? Seidi Haarla and Rupert Grint in "Nightborn." Credit: Pietari Peltola

Saga (Haarla) and Jon (Grint) are deliriously happy newlyweds, who have moved from London to start a family in Saga's childhood home. Set deep in the Finnish woods, the house is more than a fixer-upper, with the floorboards rotting, wallpaper peeling, and actual trees growing through its crumbling structure.

Not wasting any time, Saga and Jon get right to conceiving a child, deciding the best place for it is in a grove of twisted trees that appear rather... person-like. Twiggy hands reach out for them, deep moans echo through the trunks, and it's clear the woods have a vested interest in making sure life, uh, finds a way.

When their child Kuura (a Finnish name meaning "frost" Saga hears from the forest) is born, strange things begin. Saga knows there's something inhuman about her gremlin-like baby (and it's not just the full body of hair and tiny tail sprout). Kuura burns in sunlight, hates clothes, and only wants to drink blood, and more than a few relatives suffer violent attacks from the increasingly creepy youngster. Saga refuses to call Kuura "him," instead leaning into "it," "that thing," or "little monster," and finding herself driven to primal outbursts.

Saga and Jon's opinions about what's "best" for their child begin to wildly differ — and things get out of hand.

What happens at the end of Nightborn? Seidi Haarla as Saga. Credit: Pietari Peltola

After a stream of disturbing events, Nightborn reaches a moment of pure chaos as Saga and Jon wrestle viciously with each other over Kuura. Jon intends to take the child from Saga, brutally declaring her "unfit" to be his mother, as they try to tear each other apart. If we didn't think Kuura possessed otherworldly powers before, we get to see them in furious action here, as the child calls to the forest to stop this madness. Unfortunately for Jon, he's impaled by one of the assisting trees.

Did Kuura mean to skewer his father, to avoid his insistence on table manners? Probably, as Kuura then feasts on his father, joined by Saga, who wrenches out Jon's heart and shares it with her son in a quiet little banquet.

As the sun rises, Saga stumbles out of her now Evil Dead-looking house, to see Kuura waddling unclothed toward the woods. Then, we see the trees come to life, confirming those face-like forms as magical beings, and they beckon to the child in a welcoming gesture. Saga and Kuura share a moment of acknowledgment before she sends him off into the woods with a weary smile.

What does it all mean? Trolls run these woods. Credit: Pietari Peltola

Essentially, trolls are afoot — mythological beings of Nordic folklore. The beings that welcome Kuura at the end of the film are trolls, confirmed through their listing in the credits as such. And it's clear Saga's family has been connected to the trolls surrounding their home for generations.

"In the Nordic countries, there’s a longstanding mythology of trolls living in the forests. In ancient times, people truly believed that trolls inhabited the woods and had a kind of control over nature. And in Nightborn, the forest reflects Saga's emotions and the animalistic, primitive physical side of humankind," says Bergholm in the film's press notes.

"But I also wanted to create my own interpretation of this mythology. In this film’s logic some humans and trolls have interacted for generations, so perhaps all of us carry a bit of troll's blood. That troll's blood might make some of us feel different, awkward in social situations, or out of step with social norms."

Jon's mother (Rebecca Lacey), earlier in the film, tells Saga she "read local tales here say that if you don't bless a child the trolls will take them," and speaks of "some families [that] still have troll blood running through their veins." It's clear Saga does, as she physically takes on the same hairy attributes as Kuura, finds her pregnant belly replicating a troll-like tree trunk, and joins Kuura in a diet of raw meat. By conceiving Kuura among them in the trolls' woods, Saga reconnects with their magic and gives birth to a little baby troll that can't be "raised."

Featured Video For You Is This The End of Hollywood's ‘Bad Moms’?

It's also clear Saga's grandmother had experiences with the trolls. Saga tells Jon she was forbidden by to visit the forest as a child, though she used to sneak out there. Saga's mother (Pirkko Saisio) says her grandmother "believed there were some... whatever," during a phone call, and her sister Taru (Pamela Tola) says their she'd filled the yard with cold iron junk to "keep them away." When Kuura is burned by the cold iron of a gift from Jon's father (John Thomson), Saga bursts into laughter, later saying aloud to her son, "I know what you are."

Saga's own history, whether physically or metaphorically, as a "troll" is also recalled by her mother and Taru. Saga's mother not-so-subtly tells her she was a "terrible child" and that "Saga always liked more trees than people." Taru lambasts her sister for being "shitty" to grow up with, and the actual "monster" in the room.

Ultimately, Bergholm uses these mythological creatures as a means to explore the animalistic, brutal side of motherhood, with Saga struggling with her little troll before she embraces her inner ferality.

"The story really grew out of my own feelings and experiences as a mother: those complex, sometimes difficult emotions, and how challenging love for your child can be," the director said in the film's press notes. "Parenting is not always easy, and when a child isn’t quite what you expected — a happy, easy-going baby — you begin to question how to be a parent to them."

We also don't see Kuura's face until the final frame, a decision that keeps us wondering whether the child has fangs or the like. Bergholm deliberately kept the child's face offscreen, saying in press notes, "I really wanted to keep the mystery regarding the baby's face. This way, the viewer shares the feeling the protagonist has all the way through: There is something very wrong with the child, but it is impossible to say what."

Essentially, trolls!

Experienced kinksters will know all too well that regular dating apps don't always cut it. So, how do you find your people?

Perhaps you have a foot fetish, or you're into spanking or BDSM. Maybe you have no idea what you might be into, but want to find a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your options and go on a journey of sexual self-discovery. 

As always, the internet has an answer, with at least two platforms we recommend for exploring all those kinks and much more: AdultFriendFinder and FetLife. All it takes is just a few minutes on either of those sites. You'll know instantly that you're in the right place. There's an abundance of NSFW content, plus even more spice to discover once you start using the search functions and looking for connections.

Something else AdultFriendFinder and FetLife have in common is user demographics. Both skew male, which is standard across the whole online dating world. One notable difference, though, is age. The average user on FetLife is 25, and AdultFriendFinder users tend to be in their 30s. That being said, both sites feature a diverse range of genders, sexual orientations, ages, and kink communities. In other words, there's something for everyone.

But while both sites are designed to accommodate sex-positive communities, they each have their own ways of working and bringing kind-lovers together. You may find that one of these sites suits you better than the other, though we recommend looking at both.

Keep reading for a rundown of the major differences in how AFF and FetLife cater to kinksters.

FetLife is great and very popular, but it also takes time to build a following, earn credibility, and be taken seriously on the site. In fact, while you can message strangers, the site's culture discourages it, and unsolicited messages are often ignored. On AdultFriendFinder, on the other hand, the opposite rule reigns. In fact, it's much more like a traditional dating site, in the sense that connecting with strangers online is closer to the site's purpose, whereas FetLife is more of a social media website for building local kink communities. 

In addition to the one-on-one aspect, AdultFriendFinder hosts live webcam shows and community discussion forums, offering users multiple ways to connect quickly.  

Better site interface

This one might be controversial, since the AFF site is notoriously dated, but FetLife's interface is downright confusing, a mix between Facebook and Instagram, with much more limited search functionality. While both sites will allow you to search by specific kinks (and both sites offer exhaustive lists of kink options), the search functionality and filter options on AdultFriendFinder are more comprehensive and more user-friendly.

This isn't an accident, by the way. FetLife deliberately disables search by age, gender, and sexual orientation because, in their words, they are "a social network and not a dating site."

Live shows

FetLife allows users to host videos, but it doesn't have a dedicated, live webcam service. Some users do offer that, of course, but they do so on third-party sites, and usually behind a paywall. AFF, on the other hand, makes live streaming a significant part of its community experience and allows you to search through webcam shows by the streamer's location or the show's interest/topic, which often revolves around a specific kink.

In other words, if you're content to watch, AFF delivers some excellent, kink-centric live action, and much of it is accessible without upgrading to a paid subscription.

Where FetLife excelsFree accounts have more freedom

The most noticeable difference between FetLife and AFF is how much more freedom is afforded to non-paying accounts. On AdultFriendFinder, profiles are locked behind a paywall, so only paying members can read bios, scroll through photos, or see a comprehensive list of kinks. FetLife, on the other hand, operates more like Instagram for kinksters, delivering large photos, comprehensive bios, and even a web of connections comparable to what you might see on Facebook, from friends and romantic partners to subs, doms, and mentors, if applicable. 

Even more important, free FetLife users can contact each other in one-on-one messages without having to give up their credit card information, which definitely makes it easier to establish a personal connection.

One major limitation of free accounts is that they're prevented from watching videos. Because raunchy videos are a mainstay of many profiles, this is definitely a hindrance, though not an especially annoying one. 

The site promotes in-person events

Perhaps the biggest benefit of FetLife over AdultFriendFinder is that the former is much more focused on real-life connections, whereas AdultFriendFinder seems content to let people play in the virtual world. 

The Events tab at the top of the FetLife banner allows you to see, at a glance, all of the nearby, kink-friendly events, from informal meet-and-greets to full-on costume and masquerade balls. Best of all, you can filter by sub-type (Party, Educational, Social, Conference/Festival, Sex Party) or just look for events that your FetLife friends are attending.

SEE ALSO: Hinge's latest feature makes date planning a little easier

These in-person events are such an important part of the FetLife experience, even when they're not officially affiliated with the website, that they should be considered integral to the site itself. In fact, it's pretty common to see people indicate, in their profiles, that they won't message or "friend" anyone that they haven't already met at an IRL event. 

Kink discovery

Because of its community emphasis and dedication to exploring sexuality in a safe, consensual and informed way, FetLife offers users not only the means to connect with others but also to better connect with themselves. There's the community-sourced Kinktionary, for example, a Wiki-like resource covering topical aspects of human sexuality from the ins and outs of gay culture to a comprehensive list of sex toys and their uses, as well as dedicated groups to not only explore kinks but also introduce people to the BDSM lifestyle (we recommend you check out the Novices & Newbies section if you're a first-time visitor). 

AdultFriendFinder isn't totally without these resources, but they're not as user-friendly or as accessible to total newcomers to the world of kink.

The bottom line

Both AFF and FetLife are premier destinations for internet kinksters, and you can't really go wrong with either. Both sites have large user bases, comprehensive kink-focused spaces, and a non-judgmental atmosphere that makes it easy to let loose.

That said, if you're looking for the fastest possible connection or are content to confine your kink to the digital world for the time being, AdultFriendFinder does a better job of connecting people quickly. If, on the other hand, you want to integrate into your local kink community and maybe discover the underground nightclubs and VIP parties reserved only for the naughtiest of the naughty, FetLife will do right by you.

Snap held its Q2 2026 earnings call on Monday, with CEO Evan Spiegel speaking about the company's hopes and the public's response to its upcoming Specs AR glasses. 

Currently available for pre-order, Snap's Specs are scheduled to launch on Sept. 16 and will set buyers back the formidable sum of $2,195. It's an intimidating price tag which may scare off some consumers. Still, Spiegel believes Specs are the future of Snap. The company has invested significantly in the AR glasses, which have been in development for over 10 years, and sees Specs as an important milestone.

"Our largest long-term opportunity is Specs, a new kind of computer built into see-through glasses," Spiegel said early in Monday's earnings call. "Specs are designed for a future in which AI does more work on our behalf and people spend less time operating screens."

Despite this vision, it's unclear whether public anticipation for Specs' release is meeting Snap's expectations. When asked about pre-order volumes, Spiegel claimed there has been "a huge amount of interest" in the AR glasses since they were announced in June. Even so, he did not offer any exact numbers, leaving it ambiguous as to whether such interest has materially translated into pre-orders.

"What we're hearing from folks is really that they want to try Specs," said Spiegel. "It's obviously a high consideration purchase at $2,195."

Spiegel noted that developers understood the "technical leaps" Snap has made with Specs. However, when it came to the general public's response, he focused on the importance of people getting to try the AR glasses after their September launch.

"I think for the broader public and consumers, it's going to be really important for folks to go hands-on," Spiegel continued. "I think Sept. 16 at our upcoming launch event will be an important starting point for that consumer-oriented journey. Certainly, a lot of exciting momentum around Spectacles and we're really looking forward to getting these in folks' hands so that they can experience the platform for themselves."

This may suggest that pre-order numbers haven't yet reached the volume Snap had been hoping for. Even so, the company is confidently backing Specs as the next big revolutionary product, and trusting that it will prove itself at launch. Spiegel stated that there is a significant opportunity to create the "next computing platform," referencing the introduction of desktop computers to office jobs.

Snap CFO Doug Hott also spoke about Specs during the earnings call, stating that the company is currently focused on product quality, customer experience, and ecosystem.

"I think looking forward on Sept. 16, we'll be sharing a lot more about all the different ways people can use Specs, how they fit into people's lives, and we're just really excited to get Specs into folks' hands later this year," said Hott.

Snap announced $1.6 billion in revenue this quarter — a 19 percent increase year over year, which was above expectations. Even so, the company still operated at a net loss of $164 million in Q2. Snap laid off 16 percent of its workforce earlier this year, with Spiegel stating that it aimed to lower its annual costs by $500 million before the year's end.

We've been treated to some truly special sporting moments this summer, but nothing really came close to the 2026 World Cup.

Now that domestic seasons are returning, are we fatigued from a summer of sport? Absolutely not. We're impatient for rivalries to be renewed in some of the most competitive leagues in the world. And if we're talking truly unpredictable action from elite clubs in incredibly passionate stadiums, it's tough to beat the Premier League.
