lack and white drawing of a man with long hair and a beard wearing a suit and tie, standing against a red background. He has an angry expression. A speech bubble near his head says, “No gods. No masters.”

How does an #UberDriver actually get help from “support”? I’ve waited MONTHS to add rides to my Eats account. Every call ends the same: “wait longer” → ask for supervisor → click. Unreal, #Uber #GigWork #Rideshare #CustomerService

I wish this was a more dramatic image. But I've decoupled Hulu from my Spotify.

I kind of wish I still had Disney+ so I could cancel it again.

It's very important as we process the death of #CharlieKirk that we remember Trump is in the Epstein files.

Last of the five — production Tommy varied a lot from the concept, but this one still came through with strong presence. Another from the canceled Anvil 8 line I acquired, getting slapchop high-contrast prep before hitting my Etsy shop. #ttrpg #minipainting #etsyshop

Gray unpainted resin miniature of a hooded figure in ragged robes, crouched dynamically while raising a staff with mechanical details. Stands on a square base textured with grit.

Ink and wash illustration of a towering post-apocalyptic warrior. Bald, with makeshift armor covered in spikes, bones, and scavenged parts. Holds a staff topped with a “One Way” street sign; heavy ink splatter emphasizes menace.

Here’s “Quinn” — hooded brawler and survivor, another mini from the canceled Anvil 8 project I now carry forward. Getting prepped for slapchop high-contrast paint before heading to my Etsy shop as a system-agnostic miniature. #ttrpg #minipainting #etsyshop

Ink and wash drawing of a rugged fighter in patchwork armor with a hooded cloak. A stitched doll hangs from their chest as a talisman. They wield a heavy club, their stance radiating defiance.

Gray unpainted plastic miniature of the same character, hooded and armored, raising a club overhead in a striking pose. Belted gear and stitched armor details are visible. The figure stands on a textured square base.

Meet “Dr. Anne” — field medic and survivalist, part of the canceled Anvil 8 line I now carry forward. Prepping her for slapchop high-contrast paint before she joins the others in my Etsy shop as a system-agnostic mini. #ttrpg #minipainting #etsyshop

Next up is “Cath” — one of the five minis I designed for Anvil 8 Games. Dual-blade armored fighter with a grim silhouette. Prepping for slapchop high-contrast paint before listing in my Etsy shop as a system-agnostic mini. #ttrpg #minipainting #etsyshop

Ink and wash illustration of a masked warrior in segmented armor. The figure wears a barred helm and holds two large jagged swords, surrounded by ink splatter that emphasizes their dark and dangerous presence.

Prepping “Heather” for #slapchop high-contrast paint—one of five minis I designed for Anvil 8 Games. Project was canceled, but I acquired the line and will be featuring them as system-agnostic figures in my Etsy shop soon. #ttrpg #minipainting #etsyshop

Ink and wash illustration of the same character. A futuristic mercenary with braided hair, high collar covering mouth, and layered tactical armor. They carry a machine pistol with suppressor, smoke and shadow effects surrounding the figure.

Peak Cinema

Two comic panels inspired by the movie Big Trouble in Little China featuring Jack Burton, still covered in Grace Law's lip-stick. Captioned... "You know what Jack Burton always says at at time like this?"
"who?"
"Jack Burton!"
"ME!"

He’s back—fifth sortie today. Fills his cheeks and vanishes. Each run he gets a little closer. I’ve started placing snacks nearer to me. He’s cautious, but I think I’m being trained.

Here’s a monster to drop into your Old School Renaissance homebrew: the Drop Goblin — four-armed vermin that fall from trees, giggling like nightmares.

Early morning sketch session on the porch. Feeding squirrels, drawing monsters, and running on Rockstar instead of sleep. Nature’s loud, the deck’s creaky, and life’s alright.

Meet the team I built for @vaesen-rpg.bsky.social—equal parts séance, sermon, and street fight.

Thora Dremer (Occultist)
Father Franklin Grey (Priest)
Dagher Falk (Officer, Sightless—but not clueless)

#Vaesen #TTRPG #FolkHorror #CharacterArt #MysteryCrew

A Victorian bruiser with mutton chops like blades. Dagher is all fists and grit. He doesn’t see the Vaesen—but he believes.

An older priest with white, wild hair and haunted eyes. His collar is crisp, but his soul is frayed. He recites prayers to gauge how close the veil is—if the words turn sour, something is listening. He’s a man of faith, not certainty.

A stern woman with a square jaw and small round glasses peers coldly through the gloom. Dressed in rationalist gray with a high collar and choker. Occultist. Scholar.

I love @vaesen-rpg.bsky.social — easily the most charming RPG I’ve read. Here’s a Vaesen I designed: the Plague Prince.

He spins moonlight into golden baubles to lure noble daughters into his pond kingdom.

t would be cool if y'all grounded your support of sex workers, NSFW artists, trans women and such in the fact that it's the right thing to do and not in the fact that they might come for you later. We are people with lifes worth living too.
