production of The Muppet Show should not be dependent on petty vulgarities like “ratings” or “revenue.” it should be preserved as a vital function of american culture. it should have a taxpayer-funded budget rivaling the CIA

new painting, Vertigo Sun ☀️
A rectangular painting against a white background. The painting depicts a blue sky with warping white clouds and a sun in the center. Surrounding the sun is a circular rainbow that fades into the clouds.

A "WHAT WENT WRONG?"-style YouTube thumbnail but it's a baby scratching its head and an image of a baby asleep in a crib pointing to a baby crying in a crib.

A thumbnail in the style of card pack opening videos. It features a baby, the opener of this video, delighted that they got a so-called "God Pull". The pull in question is three cat-shaped Animal Crackers from an Animal Crackers bag. There are sparkles and a rainbow-like effect, implying that these are rare. They are not. Also I, the voice you've been hearing in your head this whole time, would do a disservice if they didn't tell you that toddlers can in fact have animal crackers. Some parents recommend softening them, though this varies. The key with snacks for toddlers is to make sure they are not too soft or sticky such as gummy candy, as this is a choking hazard. The person who made this thumbnail went through the trouble to research this and they told me to tell you.

Been making an effort to doodle more on paper lately. Fun to crank out some little guys free of any Big Art™ pressure

Who killed the counterculture. My new essay in Rolling Stone. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
Can the Counterculture Rise Again?
Donald Trump and tech billionaires have killed the counterculture that thrived in past eras of protest. Can today's artists lead the resistance again?

fantastical drawing of Tyrannosaurus, a bipedal carnivorous dinosaur with tiny arms. It is covered in colorful squares like a quilt, in shades of army green, orange, and pink. its arms are legs are simplified like toys. It is saying in a cartoon speech bubble "Even in a hypothetical world where genAI is environmentally neutral, I would still think it was really uncool."

"La Matriarca" (Unknown, 1509)

Discovered in a private collection in 1944, this piece was quietly acquired by the Vatican and has never been displayed (or acknowledged).
Accompanying notes state "La Gorgone di Torino" as "a possible title she had me reconsider, so I obliged."

"A mountain walked or stumbled."

Wanted to finally do an interpretation of Cthulhu from H.P. Lovecraft's The Call of Cthulhu!
a mountainous thing, with long wing-like sheets of flesh drifting up and out of frame. its bulk is rotten, wrinkled, decomposing. its head appears to be a ball of feelers, but its so large its mostly off page. amongst strange pillars, a man is silhouetted in the foreground. he is very small.
