This week on #RunawayToTheStars: Yao probes, Adam escalates, Talita is alone.

Catch up: https://runawaytothestars.com
Read ahead: https://patreon.com/jayrockin

Yao: Oh, the velvet came off your antlers. Talita looks down at Yao's snap-on antlers. Talita: …Yeah? Yao: Was it bloody and painful? Talita pauses vacuuming and rubs her arm awkwardly. Talita: Er… there’s… blood… But it doesn’t hurt when the skin comes off. After the bone finishes growing, there’s not really any pain receptors left. Adam, who is standing to her left, looks up at her resentfully.

Adam reaches up and grabs Talita's antler, yanking on it hard enough to swing her head around. He smiles smugly. Adam: So you can't feel this? Talita recoils from him with a hand in front of her face, staring in shock. Yao gapes and then looks away fearfully from the two of them. Talita: What the fuck⁇ He throws his hands up defensively, still smiling. Adam: Hey, calm down!I thought you said it doesn’t hurt! Talita's face bristles in rage. Talita: What!? That doesn't mean you can YANK on me!

Adam: Ugh, ok! Since you grabbed me, I thought you'd be fine with it! He waves a hand dismissively and walks off, flanked by Phoebe and Dominic. Yao follows after them at a distance, looking back at Talita uncertainly. Phoebe and Dominic whisper to Adam, still unaware Talita can hear them. Phoebe: You trying to get fired? Dominic: Screw that– are you trying to get gored?? Adam: Whatever. We’re getting “fired” soon either way. It’s not like it’s gonna use those things, anyways. Talita tenses at his words with an electric shock of fury, gripping her face and clenching her jaw as if she could curl inwards until she imploded. Then the temps are gone. She slumps down to the floor of the changing area. The massive vehicle bay room is empty.

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

When ever one of those AI bros tires to tell you that artist are gatekeeping art remember that pros, armatures, hobbyist all stopped what they where doing to provide guidance to a newbie artist over the shared experience that "this one angle is hard to draw"

🌿 weeds in the garden...?

#b3d #pokemon #art

3d render of chikorita eyeing a sleeping oddish in a large patch of carrots. to the left is another oddish staring at the napping one curiously. on the right, there is an oddish running away from the scene. there are other carrots around the garden, freshly harvested from the garden. a very small oddish is tucked away in the furthermost right corner, peeking at the chaos.

only a matter of time before wolves start keeping that old bay on em

David Grimm @david-grimm.bsky.social · 12d

A female wolf has been doing something unusual on the Central Coast of British Columbia. She's learned to pull crab traps up from the water, yanking on a rope to bring it to the surface. But is it tool use? Very fun story from @phiejacobs.bsky.social for @science.org

Have wild wolves learned to use tools?

Video captures a lone female pulling crab traps out of the water, but does it count as tool use?

I’m howling.

Recently, Clifford "Buzz" Grambo decided to upgrade his electric scooter. The old one he had purchased online only reached 16 mph and wasn't cutting it anymore. He needed to go faster to keep up with the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement cars he chases around Baltimore. So, Grambo bought a Segway MAX G3, which features a 2,000-watt motor and can get up to 28 mph.
"The first time I caught up to them, I could tell that they already knew who I was," he told me when we first spoke on the phone in late October. "They had seen me before, so they thought they were just going to speed away. I was like, ha-ha bitches, I got a new scooter!"

Production art I did in late-2024 of SQUIM on the Smiling Friends episode "Squim Returns"! I just adore this character and I had so much fun drawing him! Once again, huge thanks to Zach Hadel, Michael Cusack, and Aron Fromm for having me design this critter! 🤪
He holds a special place in my heart!

#3157 A helpful tutorial

A digital drawing of one of those drawing tutorials that says 'don't do this, do this.'
The drawing is of an almost naked middle-aged man doing a flying kick. The 'Don't do this' one has a bunch of areas circled and a cross under it. The 'Do this' one is exactly the same but without the circles and a tick instead of a cross.
The text reads 'Needlessly adding red circles will ruin your art' and a smaller bit of text at the bottom reads 'Bonus tip! Add a tick under all your art so people think you did it right.'
