Day 21 of Things I don't usually draw... carousel horses.
I love myself a beautiful horse tornado. The designs and craftsmanship of all the animals/seats/etc is one of the most charming things on the planet to me.

If the first thing I see on your professional #business #website is an #AI generated picture, we are immediately starting off on a negative footing. AI generated images hurt my brain. And there's often no reason. A new BAKERY in town is using AI images instead of photos of their own bread. STOP IT!

Hi Feds,
The government retirement benefits (GRB) platform has been decommissioned and all benefit account access moved to FedHR navigator. Make sure you have a sign in set up so you still have access without a PIV card.

My contract with Blizzard sadly ends in just two weeks. Come October, I'll be looking for fulltime or contract work as a senior writer or narrative designer. If you need someone who can write sharp characters, poetic prose, and emotional stories, I'm available! www.hazelmonforton.com
It's #portfolioday! I'm presently a senior narrative designer at Blizzard, but before that I was at Bungie and Arkane. I wrote for the Writer's Guild award-nominated Dishonored: Death of the Outsider, and a bunch of critically acclaimed seasons and expansions in Destiny 2.

After losing Naka, who was Harper’s BFF cat, we offered to adopt a kitten.
Harper beelined to the adult cat room instead and swept up a giant, 4yo potato of a cat.
She named him Éponine after a small, French woman in Les Mis but fine. Ignore my brilliant suggestion of “Rip Torn Furniture”.

Republicans know exactly what they’re doing. And the only reason these AV laws pass with bipartisan support is because the Democrat party is full of reactionary, uncurious, disengaged cowards.
![“[We] came up with an idea on pornography to make it so that the porn companies [must implement age verification, and] what happens is the porn company then says, were not going to do business in your state, which of course is entirely what we were after.
So we are doing it from the back door, we're starting with the kids, and then we'd have a national ban on pornography if we could.”
