Had to sketch another piece of Critical Role Campaign 4 Fan Art, this time of Travis Willingham's character- Teor Pridesire.

A literary Iguanodon at the Earth Sciences Library. Do any other libraries have dinosaurs or other antediluvian creatures carved into the furniture?

It is my firmest belief that all interesting people are, at least a little bit, on a quiet and constant hunt to find our own Secret Garden.

Tom Cox @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social · 6d

This - which I explored today - is the kind of thing I live for on walks in the deep countryside: a 200+-year-old abandoned walled garden, totally overgrown and teeming with wildlife and ghosts.

Finding lost magic places like this, untouched and undeveloped, always fills me with weird kind of hope.

The entrance to the walled garden I found today, with its broken door and big ivy hat.

An interdimensional portal in the walled garden I found today

A hole in the wall of the walled garden I found today, leading to 1785.

Ruined potting sheds in the walled garden I found today.

That time I was having extreme anxiety and someone suggested sketching things that made you feel safe. ❤️

A very rough but endearing sketch of Ink my dog

Ink, a silken windhound. He looks like a little borzoi

Pretty stoked!
The designers and I just had some awesome meetings recently for the Astra Fauna solo ttrpg.
We just wrapped one and I'm *really* loving how it shaping up. Can't wait to show you folks!

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA
