This feels really shitty in the face of everything but I have things like taxes and a domain renewal incoming, so here's a thread of stuff you can buy with my art on it

appreciate the thought but we're not flying places in the foreseeable & that is a batshit amount of driving from NC, ATL is 4 hrs on a bad day & has the bonus draw of people we've been meaning to visit & his family has a place to crash there (we do need a fucking teleporter though I'd like to hang)

ways to know for certain one of your favorite sketchbook types are no longer produced: you last paid ~10-15$ for them and can no longer find them on ebay for less than 25$

(strathmore's toned tan/grey but not the spiral & paper bound ones, i hardly knew ye, etc)

There's fucking yaoi art on a train by my house I'm fucking losing my mind, this rules so much
Anime styled graffiti art on a train car depicting a male demon looking seductively at another man while saying "That's a good boy", with the phrase "kiss yr homies goodnight" in the bottom left corner. 
Artist seems to be "Akira BPD"

eh it's still a question of 'do i want to do that the weekend directly after a potentially fraught family visit weekend', to which the answer should probably be yes but also low morale currently means i belong in a hole away from functioning humans so ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
unknown.garden
... we're trying to boost household morale by going to more shows, AFI & Autechre are in Atlanta on the same day, which is next gd Friday, and i have never seen either of them

As a paleontology enthusiast I always find it funny how pop culture constantly describes large herbivorous dinosaurs as "gentle giants" when most of our current living herbivorous megafauna are some of the most physically dangerous and temperamental creatures on the planet.

New: A heat pump that can be installed in minutes is allowing Boston to quickly decarbonize a public housing complex for the elderly and provide air conditioning as climate change-driven heat waves intensify. The window heat pump is made by SF startup Gradient.

Speaking as a Birmingham native, Bessemer ain’t nothing but black folks — and I find it oh so interesting that black neighborhoods are where they keep shoving all these data centers
chadstanton.blacksky.app
I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that all these data centers are going into communities that have been historically targeted for exploitation and have the least amount of civic power wielded by the people living there.

Why Are Plans for This Alabama Data Center So Hush-Hush?
Officials in Bessemer, Alabama, are mum on Project Marvel, a proposed data center the size of 18 Walmart Supercenters.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

A love letter to myself, my wife, and the queer community.

Available as a t-shirt and postcard print - sketchbuck.teemill.com/search/?sear...
A digital lino-cut style illustration of figures floating. The Woman and Man lovingly rest their heads together, their wings arching behind them. In the sky is a large sun, with an infinity symbol, the light rays spilling to the ground highlighting the mountain range below the couple. To the left a tree with heart shaped fruits and a serpent wrapped around the trunk, to the right 'flames of desire'. Below 'The Lovers' is written.

FUNDAMENTALIST CHRISTIAN LOGIC
1. A male is defined by having a penis and testicles
2. God is a male.

Therefore
3. God has balls and a wang.

Ask a fundamentalist how big god’s hog is. No matter how big he says it is, it will be a limit to the infinite size of god and therefore a blasphemy.

twice a year the entire U.S. press becomes a marketing extension of a single billionaire-owned retailer, and nobody in any position of editorial power thinks it's weird or gross

Posted to the Southern Reach Reddit...
Southern Reach told me Area X keep eatinh his expeditions so I asked how many expeditions he has and he said he just goes to the shelter and gets a new expeditions afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding expeditions to Area X and then his daughter started crying.

You could just talk about Jim Crow. I promise you, there's no need to leave America's shores to talk about life in a fascist state
motherjones.com
Under the Third Reich, most Germans generally lived in the law-bound normative state, while Jews and other disfavored people were victims of the arbitrary and violent prerogative state.

The dual state is characterized by the facade of normalcy obscuring the fact of an authoritarian state.
The “dual state” theory was invented to describe Nazis. The Supreme Court could take us there.
Authoritarianism—but make it look like the rule of law.

This is going around again and it is not true. Like every site on the internet, Bluesky uses machine learning to do a first-pass approximation of image classification to detect and label content. They have repeatedly confirmed outside services do not use Bluesky user data to train their models.
