Today’s affirmation:

for the illusion of structure, this will be the opening page of my upcoming book* which is really just a random grouping of paintings that happen to share the same dimensions *pdf

If you are a Canadian citizen or resident, and you hate "AI"¹, please fill out this survey. ised-isde.canada.ca/site/ised/en... The survey questions are *extremely* biased, so this will not be a fun experience, but I think it is worth it. ¹ (And if you like "AI"… how have I not blocked you yet?)

Today, a thread to honor and celebrate #IndigenousPeoplesDay. The world is so big, so there will be a second and maybe a third part. We will begin with Zuni weaver We’wha (1849-1896). 🧵 1/20

Green lighting is not my fave to work with but I'm having fun with this comm #wip

It's funny how banks have no problem with money if it comes from oppressing workers or destroying environments, but the line is: fraking adult games ☝️

Please signal boost, it's for a good cause! 🙏 Hey folks - I'm working with an MS (multiple sclerosis) charity to find streamers to support fundraising in November. It's retro gaming themed, so if you're interested in more info - or you know someone who would be amazing - please chuck me a reply 💚

The shadow of a hawk fell over them. Frog and Toad jumped under a rock. The hawk flew away. “We are not afraid!” screamed Frog and Toad at the same time.

All the autumn fits for the 4 "main" characters! I'm happy that each character's fashion sense is shown through, kek

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

Proud ladies become even more beautiful in armor ⚔️ #commission #oc #elf #fantasy #elfenjoyers

BC's NDP decision-making just falling apart at the seams, man. What the hell. Out of all the cities I've lived in, Vancouver overwhelmingly has the worst drivers. How is putting more drivers on the road with less strict approval better for anyone's safety??

"It's just a little airborne, it's still good, it's still good!"

Cute! Cuddly! Handmade! Adoptable!

Very important fellow Canadians, let them know what you think about ai!!!!!!!!

Halloween on DS9! #startrekfanart #startrekds9

Machado is trying to leverage her Nobel Peace Prize with an appeal for the military invasion of Venezuela by Trump. I wonder whether the Nobel Committee reckoned with conduct like this when they gave her the award.

We banned a guy on the Steam forums for repeatedly saying there were “too many women” in our game So he flipped his positive review to negative Still totally worth it

You procrastinate, and then you write the fucking paper the way the gods and nature intended. Several hours before it's due, high off either caffeine, nicotine, sugar, drugs, and PANIC. Fuck AI.

[ oc ] recently made a design for a very old oc

For today's #DAFanFriday, I crocheted myself the Blackwall ami of my dreams 🖤🛡️ I cannot overstate the amount of time, effort, and love that went into making this. I'm obsessed (and my hands hurt). Details in alt text and more pics below!⤵️ (1/3) 🧶 #Blackwall #crochet #amigurumi #DragonAgeArt #DAI

I don't think motivating people to move to other platforms to avoid the stupid censorship rules is a good solution. Quite the opposite. There is NO SAFE space for artists nowadays, if we don't fight back this will only get worse and worse

TALK TO "MY DOCTOR" LOL - dashare.zone ADMIN

just don’t create a moderation list, bluesky said that’s bad

This would single-handedly transform the lives of everyone I know in such profound ways it is difficult to fully articulate, but it would also let us actually make more and different and crazy things

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. ko-fi.com/soniasulaiman

Serpents in the garden

Golden Embers - watercolour and digital, 2015 (I think?) It's been a long time since I posted this vengeful queen. Back when my style was a little more abstract and weird.

中秋節快樂! Jung chow jit fai lock! Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!!

Every time I am forced to learn about Taylor Swift doing anything at all

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words. The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

they're calling her "the coolest person who has ever been alive"

Explaining to my wife that I cannot simply “read the books I’ve already bought and haven’t read” like some kind of peasant.

Apparently if you try to live properly and get a full night's sleep, work out 3-4 times a week, keep your apartment clean, cook your meals, and maybe try to see friends 1-2 times a week, that takes up pretty much all your time outside of work.

Currently at: — only buy tech too old to have AI built in — painstakingly disable AI every time they add it to something that used to work perfectly well — if it can't be switched off, abandon the platform or tool — if there are no good alternatives, avoid the AI parts — patiently wait for the crash

Making an ultimate pin post! Im Malizias and i draw lots of dnd💫 For questions feel free to DM me (and put your question in the first message) malizias.carrd.co vgen.co/Malizias

Bring back art nouveau you cowards

This is my first game. Please clap.

Pyaari is so decent 🥺

The Hippocampus is a mythical creature with the front of a horse and the back half of a fish. They've been portrayed by cultures from the Ancient Greeks to the Picts and beyond My take here is partly based on a black-figure amphora from the 6th century BCE that currently is displayed in the Louvre

Spooky season

"I Contain Multitudes" This digitally painted piece honors coyote by tracing its lineage from the first cells of life to the animal trotting our cities and the wilderness today. The thread gives descriptions of all the extinct organisms shown in this piece (not to scale)

A warrior ceremony in ancient Crete We know so little about religious rituals in Minoan culture that I can't tell you what is happening here. But we can assume that war also played a role in them. Here my task was to imagine what it could've looked like if you were there. Client: Board & Dice

just a reminder that bandcamp friday is tomorrow & streaming services are interrupting music streams with ai generated shit, flooding the database with artists that don't exist in any way other than profiting the platform owners so instead of paying a monthly fee, buy an album or two each month ok

“It actually doesn’t take much to be considered a difficult woman. That’s why there are so many of us.” ― Jane Goodall 💙 RIP to a real one. My childhood hero

Feels so good to use some anatomy lines from the undersketch to help inform clothing design and shape. It's like you still get to keep some of those lil nice bits that get lost once you cover it all up
