I draw landscapes and monsters. Invertibrates, datura flowers, and thunderstorms are cool. Cannot be trusted with a feed; a place to post my stuff. No AI

The nicest thing about being in my mid-30s is rediscovering doing new art mediums and subjects that I was too nervous to try when I was younger. Who cares if you’re new to drawing people, or sculpting or cosplay making. The fact you’re making something is the beauty of it.

I hope workers in other game studios see WoTC unionizing, and see the mass layoffs and BioWare closing and decide it's time to put their foot down. What do we have to lose by unionizing? A job that you're afraid every day you'll be laid off from anyway? UNIONIZE THE GAME INDUSTRY!

Repost if $30k would change your life right now

I don't think $30k is a life-changing amount of money. Median American born in 1980 will have $2m in income in their lifetime. It's a 1% increase in earnings.

Check out this gargoyle from the Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Moulins (France), first built in the 15th century as a collegiate church, and later expanded as a cathedral in the Neo-Gothic style in the 19th century. It seems that this gargoyle represent the loup-garou (werewolf)

In these frightening times, UFW staff is out in the fields talking to workers and sharing know your rights info including these "red cards." We're also watching for ICE activity on rural roads and sharing guidance with both union and non-union farm workers.

I think the most often overlooked piece of art advice is simply "don't bore yourself." Practice and learn, that's still incredibly important for growth, but don't keep doing the same things over and over

Home from #ASC2026. Thoughts: -I loved the indie dev space for people to test and show off games! -I need to plan an itinerary better. -I missed saying hi to so many people due to no itinerary. 😭 -Appeciated the accessibility booth! -Gonna try to do badges next year.

Opened my DMs to everyone since I don’t have a feed anymore; sorry for anyone who couldn’t reach out! Thank you to a friend for letting me know 🩵

It rocks to tell people their shit rocks. Every single person who has ever been nice about my work has been appreciated for doing so. I take time to say I love stuff and it’s always the right time to remind somebody you value their work! You don’t need to get into detail either. Just say it rocks

2/3 AB-412 has a simple ask for tech, if you use copyrighted materials in your dataset, you must let copyright holders know! That’s it! Simple, efficient and extremely easy for tech companies to do. People deserve to know whats in those datasets. Our hard work is not their trade secrets! So-

1/3 Massive efforts are being done to ensure states do not regulate GenAI. Regulations like CA’s AB-412. A transparency bill that terrifies Big Tech! On Dec. 8th, there is a major hearing on this bill. We need as many folks to show up! Come join in support of creatives! Rsvp link in thread!

queer creatives have spent their entire lives surviving out of spite, the idea that you could make some of the most justified haters on earth acquiesce to genAI is delusional. I've trained my entire life for this, you are like a little fucking baby. I will spit on your name from my deathbed.
