I wish I was magical but I'm just tired

#cat #art #illustration
digital art of an orange cat with fairy wings lying down loafing with it’s face hidden and tucked into it’s paws, coloured in watercolour style with the words ‘magical but also tired’ hand written in dark brown in a line below the cat drawing. the background is light pastel orange and there’s a watermark written ‘buttercup grove’ over part of the art with a simple buttercup flower logo next to the words.

Every artist, get more self indulgent NOW! Draw your ships kissing, draw your blorbos, draw that idea you’ve been putting off (you’re good enough to do it!!!), redraw that old art, draw yourself wearing a cool outfit, draw a better world- just draw!!!

Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is.

GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart.

But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.
Boromir from THE LORD OF THE RINGS, holding The One Ring. He thought he could use it for good, but everything done with the ring turns to evil. He was one of the mightiest warriors of middle earth, and he could not resist its powers. Others even mightier fell to the ring. Do you think you are stronger than them? The One Ring is generative AI.

Going into 2026, a reminder for everyone who's fallen off the creative wagon, game dev, writing, art, music, whatever, no matter how long:
A post by c.a.t.y.a.y that reads, "I wonder what my art could've been if I didn't quit". Iggy responds, "I wonder what it will be if you start again"

epic will pay for every game that gets claimed this way so yes, you are still giving money to rowling (and by extension an international campaign against trans people) by claiming this

there are other, better franchises - let this one go

friendly reminder that you didn't waste your year. any moments of happiness or comfort. any small accomplishments, they all matter. this has been a really hard year, and simply surviving is something to be proud of.

An edited version of a text screen from the game Snatcher: EACH OF US CONTAINS THE FULL GENETIC INSTRUCTIONS FOR BOTH TESTOSTERONE AND ESTROGEN DRIVEN HORMONE LOADOUTS. THIS CAN BE CHANGED AT ANY TIME. OUR GENES WILL EVEN START EXPRESSING THEMSELVES DIFFERENTLY WITHIN THREE TO SIX MONTHS. THIS IS AN EXISTENTIAL THREAT TO FASCISTS.

digital art of a feminine white/light blue tiefling with a naive innocent face and long white hair tied in a plait over one shoulder. she has blue curling horns coming from the top of her head similar to a sheep's horns. she wears a white shirt with a green corset-like top over the top, and dark blue trousers. slung over her shoulder is a thin wooden bow. the background is plain purple behind the drawing. digital art of a mysterious hooded masculine person sat behind a brown dungeon master screen holding up his hands with purple sparkles coming out of them. he has light skin, brown facial hair, and there is a hint of glasses frames under the hood, and a subtle smirk, but no eyes are visible.

We’re so excited to reveal the sprayed edges for our special editions of Don’t Let The Forest In and Hazelthorn, designed by our very own @buttercupgrove.bsky.social 🖤🌿

How great do the edges look alongside all of the other artwork we’ve revealed for this set so far?!

The book cover shows the two main characters of the book, one a brunette boy and one a blonde boy. The book is very blue toned.

Germany is offering asylum to donkeys from Gaza. Gaza’s children? Not allowed. | Germany is now taking in animals from Gaza while refusing entry to injured and sick Palestinians. The message is clear: in Germany’s hierarchy of “valuable” life, Palestinians are valued less than animals.

Ink drawing- a fairy queen stands staring at the viewer. In one hand she holds a scepter, in the other she lifts her heavy skirt slightly. She is standing in a bramble of blackberries in front of a tree. She has big moth wings.

It's important to boycott Uber. They will use the drones that killed children, who stood in line for flour, to deliver your food order. Do not use Uber. For anything.

A digital painting of an anthro deer. He is bowing his head with tears in his closed eyes, and is holding a small bouquet of flowers limply in his mouth. The figure has top surgery scars which blend into the thorned border that frames him. The border is in the shape of a clover, with an orange background.

New fun toy for the baby 🎏
Digital drawing of Tuffy, jumping around and flinging a long string around. On the string are colourful long straps of paper attached in groups, so they flitter and rustle around when moved. The colours have a pastel purple touch.
