My WIP is horror from the heart of someone who loves both delightfully disgusting horror full of cherry syrup explosions and cheesy disaster movies. Is this the fault of the grandmother in Dante's Peak? Might be. Might be.

Gavin Newsom fucking sucks, part MCXVII

he still has until the end of the week for the rest of the bills so unfortunately it’s time to suck it up, call his office, and politely ask this living hairpiece to do the bare minimum to protect the most vulnerable among us

It starts around 2010 or so. The main character is still really, really catching up on where everyone else is as far as technology usage and clothing trends go for most of the story.

🐾 Mutual aid pet commissions 🐾

Would you like a digital graphite-like drawing of your pet, or that of a loved one? I'm offering £60 commissions to raise money for a community member!

Please DM if interested. Reposts appreciated.

#ArtCommissions #ArtSky #AnimalArt #MutualAid
A graphite like digital drawing of a jaguar, dropping down from a ledge. Text reads, "60 pet commission for mutual aid. Any animal welcome. Style example above. One slot available at a time." Background is an orange, yellow and turquoise gradient. The previous drawing faded. Text reads, "Commissions are digital art, a high resolution file will be sent. (300DPI for personal printing)

No commercial use. No permission for use to train AI or make an NFT. 

Commissions are to raise money for Mari, a multiply marginalised person with severe ME suffering caregiver abuse. I will send the donation info once commission is confirmed and will begin after proof of at least £60 has been shown."

It's why we're called Cassandras, I know, but there's something violent about being treated as mentally fragile for observing objective reality, because that makes people who are in denial feel safer and more in control.

Been here since 2020, but WHEW it's irritating everytime.

you know when a drawing starts taking so long that you begin to think things like "is it too late to hide the hands that are literally in the middle of the image?"

I'm waiting for my fish painting to dry, so I thought I do a little sketch for the spooky season.

Today’s bat pic comes from the Nevada Department of Wildlife and features the super speedy Mexican Free-Tailed Bat. Eat your heart out cheetahs, these lil friends can reach speeds of up to 100mph on wing power alone. If you ever visit the Bracken Bat Cave you’d see 15-20 million of them 😍

📣 Germany's close to reversing its opposition to mass surveillance & private message scanning, & backing the Chat Control bill. This could end private comms-& Signal-in the EU.

Time's short and they're counting on obscurity: please let German politicians know how horrifying their reversal would be.
signal.org
We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe. signal.org/blog/pdfs/ge...

So, I'm making a video game based on Palestinian folklore. It's called Thursday of the Dead, and you can talk to a Palestinian ghouleh. It will have branching narrative, and art all made by a human (me). I need exactly $100 to launch it on Steam when it's finished.

BIRDTOBER day 4: Wyandotte chicken

Finally a perfect opportunity to do something with a traditional Polish twist!! Normally I'd cut everything out of paper, but... I'm a little bit short on time. University... and all that.

#art #folkart #polishart #digitalart #bird #birds #birdtober
A digital drawing of two Wyandotte roosters facing each other, separated by a flower stalk with a pink-orange-yellow-blue flower blooming out of it and additionally surrounded with 2 flower stalks with leaves. The piece is done in Polish folk art style based on koguty Łowickie (Łowicz roosters).
