Very few people remember there is a clear difference between sympathy and empathy, and that one is much more useful and effective than the other.
-> Sympathy is to feel sorry for a person or thier situation.
-> Empathy is to sit with that person and feel what they feel.

a cartoon of two women standing next to each other with a cloud above their heads .
Alt: a cartoon of two women standing next to each other. The woman on the right has yellow hair and the woman on the left has pink hair.
The yellow-haired woman has a sad face and has a rain cloud over her head and the pink-haired woman reaches up to grab the cloud and pull it towards her, thereby stretching the cloud so that it is over the both of them. The pink-haired lady then places her hand on the yellow-haired lady's back as if to silently say "You are not alone."

a black and white drawing of a stick figure sitting in front of a computer monitor
Alt: a black and white drawing of a stick figure sitting in front of a computer monitor. The figure has its brow furrowed, hands placed in front of his frowning mouth in that pose of deep thought (you know the one), and is staring at the screen. Occasionally its eyes flick to the side, as if breaking the forth wall.

This has been a common practice in my area for years. Very few bus drivers will bother to get the buggies moved or folded (and yes ALL buggies can fold).

Having a wee break from painting brass on my Khorne Warriors, I so hate painting metals, I’ve paint some of Khorne’s Endless Spells/Prays instead. I’m enjoying painting these and trying to get that blood effect using contrasts.

In Greek #mythology , the constellation Capricornus is linked to the story of Amalthea, the magical goat who nursed Zeus as a baby. According to legend, Zeus broke one of Amalthea's horns while playing with her. #stargazing #stars

I spent almost an entire day getting a lot of things done that had piled up.
Why must I always suffer for days or longer in pain after 😭
Chronic pain and flare-ups are the bane of my life.

Last night, Peers voted against Swift bricks: rejecting a simple, proven way to help one of our fastest declining birds recover. ❌
We share @hannahbournetaylor.bsky.social's disappointment & frustration.
The vote came late, but with government refusing to back it, its fate was already sealed.

Just a reminder that questioning or negating a person's autism diagnosis,especially that of a woman*:
1 invalidates that person's lived experience-something that's has been shown to worsen a person's mental health
2 stigmatises what is a neurodevelopmental disability that they've had from birth 1/2

The Biting Dawn, Eldar Hellebore frigate now complete. That's now three of them done, I am tempted to get some more and do the other aspect warrior shrine schemes.
For tomorrow, into the Underhive, but do I paint the Bad Kitty or the Good Boy?

If you see an artist using using an app icon that is black, orange and says Ai, capital A, lower case i, just a quick public service note for folks unfamiliar with different digital art mediums.
The A stand for Adobe, and the i stands for illustrator.
It’s a program used by vector artists.

I’ve finished my Bloodreavers for my Blade of Khorne Warhammer AoS Spearhead and I’m rather chuffed with the way they turned out. Painted in the main using contrast paints I’ve gone for the Gorechosen as I love the Khul novels. Next the Blood Warriors.
