Weather and tornadoes more specifically, likely due to growing up in an area that would see them occasionally, I love the weather so much I use the official NWS app for weather and love reading their full report and all their graphs of data

Not just that but the laymen has no idea what these models do so it breaks their brains when I'm not scared of them and explain why

Shocker the plagiarism machine can't actually produce anything new or make meaningful modifications required

I love how when a non artist finds our I draw its never asking me about that specifically anymore it's always immediately "so what's your thoughts on AI?"

"Guys Sora 2 can make a video of my preexisting popular media anime waifu that's been drawn a million times doing shit that's been drawn a million times its so over we have to use AI now to adapt or quit drawing"

I really think the Trump admin should have released 9 bullet points for terrorism instead of 7 so I can play terrorism bingo with the boys

I woke up with this idea, drank 3 coffees, and drew this asap because I was terrified of forgetting it

My trantifa super soldier can't be this cute!

My character Kiran, a trans woman holding an AK47 in body gear with Tylenol and text that reads, "Join trantifa today, call 1-(800)-TRANTIFA to be directed to your local chapter representative"

We gotta lower the rent guys

Illustration of two people melting into each other as a visual metaphor of the joining of two people during sex.

they are two happily consenting adults, and this piece is not promoting any kind of sexual activity that involves any realistic risk of death or serious injury because they literally separate and cuddle afterwards so.

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

Everyday going independent as a creator regardless of what you make is the way, and now, regardless of your size as well
