‡ who are you?
Figure made of dots of light stands in the center. It’s night. A small dot that has a halo glow like a moon bow is in the sky above their head. A glimmer of the moon highlights the surface of the ocean

Wedding times in dyelab with @fifteenbestthings.bsky.social
Odera and Jubi wearing dye lab. Odera’s set is lots of golden yellows and rich browns. Jubi’s is warm orange yellow, green white, deep warm blue, and a patch of magenta purple. A little kiss with tongue and funny faces.

thankyou friend! that means so much coming from you.

This series is lots of integrating all my different parts, trying to create new visual archetypes, nodes, and access points for Black Queer bodies and visual mythologies, and not being afraid for painting and drawing to not be the central star

A photo of Odera holding a kpokokpoko, a rattle used for rituals and herbalist and sacred ceremonies. They wear a half worn body suit reminiscent of stars. And there are washes of nzu and ink dotting the surface like constellations.

Ink and nzu dance across the surface of the arms, torso, penis, fingertips, and legs. These forms dance with and across the cylindrical volumes, becoming both embellishments and spells.

AI companies are spending billions on deals with each other, which boost their value.

This has helped twenty billionaires tied to AI add $450B to their fortunes in 2025.

Meanwhile, an MIT study found that 95% of companies using AI haven't seen returns on investment.

Be warned.

traumatized because right as i hit post on my newest pieces, my tamagotchi paradise lit up and meteorites started raining down on the planet and I had to protect my tama with boxing gloves.

fun when I opt in & choose it as a minigame.
terrifying when it randomly happens and can INJURE your tama.

I want to be a Cinderella with a rat army. I want to be a Nanimon with a giant alluring bulge but an absolutely beautifully constructed grotesque bomb shaped head. I definitely want to be the cxntiest PlatinumNumemon with massive eyelashes and the gooniest tonguedown
