Vacationing with the family in #Manhattan this week, staying near SoHo/West Village area, if anyone knows of some cool #vegan eateries on the island, or interesting sites to see off the beaten path, I’d love to hear it.

This has taken some years working solo, but I have a site system working for my custom props (not launched yet). When you download an asset, you'll see every custom material I made that went into it. It's been a labor of love. Here it is shown with a house model I just finished!

Crazy as it seems, Meta is lying to you about the harm its products inflict. There are alternatives, folks.
Stop subjecting yourselves to mental anguish and your kids to sexual predators, bullying, etc.

Make the responsible choice, no matter how difficult it feels.

I love waking up and wondering what the heck I drew while falling asleep. In this case…a wookie for some reason. I think it’s a wookie.

Curious about this one -- THE STOLEN CHILD.
I'm a sucker for fantasy films, and most of the images from imdb seem intriguing.

My daughter went to her first frat party last night. She was mortified by the drunkenness, proclaiming she'll never drink. She just joined the co-ed frat at 18, and she's never experienced her cohort drunk before.
Her look of disgust in the selfie she sent me from the party is hilarious.

Still playing around with Infinite Paint’s canvas and its brushes. I think I’ll try something of substance next, rather than dorking around.

Thank you to the Newcastle Animal Rights activists who marched last weekend to raise awareness of the link between animal agriculture and the climate crisis 🙌

They carried a Viva! banner stating: 🔥 STOP EATING THE EARTH / DITCH MEAT & DAIRY 🔥 #COP30

On the fence about getting a 3D printer? Get off that fence (it's uncomfortable anyway) so you can buy, download, and print your very own animal. Lincoln has a big selection to choose from or, if you're weighed down by gold ingots, choose to buy them all!
3D printed Song Sparrow finished!

This one is super intriguing. I like bold and brave, especially when it comes to handling existing characters. I'll give it a spin tonight!
Open your third eye to one of the most psychedelic, transformative "superhero" epics...ever!?

I think one of the worst things about AI is that everyone has a fucking opinion on it.

Curious, @neonichiban.bsky.social, if you'd be interested in doing something similar for local comic shops that bookshop.org does for local booksellers? A small percentage of every purchase going to support local brick & mortars.
I'd love to see it.
Bookshop.org: Buy books online. Support local bookstores.
A better way to buy books online. Every purchase financially supports local independent bookstores.

I’ve thrown some money in here, and I’ll be passing through Portland next month and will be buying a lot, like a LOT a lot, of books from them. A really great, thoughtful store, which I’d like to see stick around for a long time to come.
Books with Pictures (@bkswpicspdx.bsky.social) in Portland, Oregon is a GREAT comic shop, and its owner in @omgkatiep.bsky.social is one of the best. The shop is going through a hard time right now, and if you want to help BwP out, they opened a GoFundMe to help do just that.

I just started reading THE VORRH by Brian Catling, and this bit goes hard:
"The sublimation of the True People had led to the survival of their race and the obliteration of their meaning."
Fascinating read so far.
