As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read.

They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

A dream of the Abyss

A black-cloaked creature stares at you across a royal garden river. The leaves of the trees behind it are deep red, and the sky is the pale yellow of dusk.

but I'm an artist - so I'll do it anyways. jus feel like crying tho.

The whole heat-death-of-the-universe used to kinda freak me out in a mildly pleasurable, yet distantly existential way. Now I just wish it would hurry-the-fuck-up and end the insanity & stupidity of this timeline. NEXT!!!!

You want marketing for your game/book/thing?

Go commission an artist to do some fanart of it. Like give them some materials and then let them draw whatever fanart they want, cute doodles, a big finished illustration, whatever.

This is so woefully underutilized!! I want to do this lol

Elliott @elliottillustrates.bsky.social · Sep 4

Massive Squeeeeeee !!!

Elliott @elliottillustrates.bsky.social · Sep 4

i'm doing that funny in a bad way 'laugh' --- it's more like sad chuckling laden with deep despair and pained existential dread ---
