Nixon: I am not a crook. Trump: I am not a pedophile Nobody: I believe you guys

Why is he sleeping like this, is he stupid?

HIM FACE, do you understand me? HIM. FACE. ♥️.♥️.♥️.♥️.♥️.♥️.♥️. >:[ #lyonallard #warframe

The fucking JOY on my face when I discovered there was a packet of honey mustard in the drawer for my Rold Gold pretzels

I've been following Ommer's story on bsky for just a short time and cheering for them. It's so cool to see this news. When I am wealthy again, I want to change lives just like this. ❤️

Much of the cardboard and paper goods strewn about our homes are sold by a single private company, with its name, Uline, stamped on the bottom. Many may not know that a multibillion-dollar fortune made on those ubiquitous products fuels far-right candidates across the country. (Published 2022)

I think we could do with a little less "Don't worry, I'm allowed to make this art because I'm traumatized in these ways." and a lot more "Don't worry, I'm allowed to make this art because I'm allowed to make any art. And also, it's none of your fucking business whether or not I am traumatized."

vgen.co/vincentsnow_art Commission queue is now in June! Request here, or check out my adoptable designs! #3dart #art #illustration #traditionalart #graphicdesign #digitalart #logodesign #gameassets #indiedev

Every time I look at a certain undermoderated scam & dramafest Discord server, it wastes my time and spoons. I think I'm going to leave despite having found quite a few commissions there. I need to force myself towards more positive activity.

Story of the day: I got my first ever chargeback. Likely a scam to get the work for free, after the first file to review they replied with an angry, rude message claiming it was 'bad quality' and refused to take my advice to fix their graphic settings. So, I have updated my ToS and VGen accordingly!

Who will win...MegaKaren, or Angry Old Shopkeeper with a Shotgun? (Me) Find out in two weeks, I guess.

Good WIP progress, passport renewed, lots of discussion and feedback given on improving VGen. Gave Foster lots of bday hugs, and my stupid legs didn't hurt after walking! Today wasn't so bad.

I would have thought that an official worldwide security alert for all American travelers from the DoS would cause a lot of talk and panic, but I'm just now seeing this. travel.state.gov/en/internati...

I'd really appreciate it if people stopped reacting and flying off the handle, taking it out on VGen. For the love of god, DO NOT boycott the most ethical freelance platform we have. There is nothing else better you can use. The team have been very responsive to feedback

While that hair model is waiting for review, I'm working on a cool #hardsurface project, this fantasy magic gun based on a real MP7 requested by a gun nerd who definitely knew their stuff! The design process was very thorough. I hope it turns out looking cool! #blender #vgencomm #gameassets #3dart

Censorship is what will destroy art and art jobs, not chatbots and image generators.

I think I should tag this on VGen as suggestive, they look too sexy to me. Being close enough to Qylaris to see their face is also definitely NSFL. #art #elfenjoyers #shadarkai #darkurge #coloredpencil #traditionalart

Yeah yeah sex is good and all but have you ever smoked some weed and listened to neofolk while banging on a table and shaking beads for 2 hours

Did you know that before social media, fandom communities mostly existed on user-funded websites, forums and webrings? They sold a little bit of ad space and took donations to keep going as well as were paid for by the creators. Some of them still exist.

social media was a wonderful brain toilet for every random half thought you didn't want to bother real people with before they decided to move all of society and infrastructure and government inside of the toilet

more people riding transit makes better transit. more ridership = more advocacy = more funding = better service, infinite loop meme!

Look at this whiny little marshmallow man baby

In honor of #EarthDay, here is a reminder that there is a bot account that posts a photo of the whole Earth from a million miles away, taken by the Deep Space Climate Observatory, several times daily. You can view all the images (and zoom in) here: epic.gsfc.nasa.gov

Feels nostalgic to be upset at a tech company just for bad UI choices, rather than human-condition-destroying acts of pure malice.

it is devastating to notice how few benches there are in the world and how some benches have been replaced by weird "leaning" things. the world is incredibly cruel to disabled, elderly, poor, pregnant, tired, homeless, and all people. there should be benches fucking everywhere for everyone

One of these hairs (ignoring the headband I forgot to put back on lol) is less than half the polygons of the other. I did damn good here, I'd say! Design is Victorian-inspired braids. #3dart #3dhair #vgencomm #gameassets #art

It is safe and accurate to assume all corporate media is using gen AI, so there is no better time to mentally and spiritually cleanse yourself of it. Stop letting them tell you what 'good' is, stop letting them take your time and attention away from amazing independent works by real people.

Nothing to see here, just life turning into an actual dystopian sci fi movie from the 80s.

Hey, you know what cool social media platform DOESN'T have immature spoiled techbro staff that vibecode everything? Where genAI content is actually prohibited? Pillowfort! Follow me here! www.pillowfort.social/vincentsnow_...

Funny thing is, there's also a list to block specificslly the people who use that list: bsky.app/profile/did:...

I have been bestowed the honor of not one but TWO 'AI hater' blocklists. (Apparently I also hate virtual reality according to one? lmao)

This video made me truly realize how much of a crisis Gen Z has, and gave insight into what life is like for them and why this is happening.

I'm going to resolve to stop posting/reposting paywalled news articles. I'll try my best to catch myself on it.

Already starting to have some spillover hours from this month getting into May's commissions time. Queue will move into June and close for May soon. Ugh, Every time you win one, you lose the next. 😞 At least the major things are taken care of and my mother will have an income next month.

why I have headache every day T_T

I do think tech companies are underestimating the amount of - new account fatigue - new app fatigue - useless upgrade fatigue - terms of service fatigue

youtu.be/GNXD8aGg0Co?... I watched Smoke Signals for the first time today during work. It was increble, moving and funny at the same time the whole way. I had both kinds of tears. I did not expect to relate so much to characters who grew up on a res as a mixed-native who didn't.

Veal. Soft, mushy, spongy, nasty tortured calf meat that stains your very soul. There is no excuse or justification for this crap existing. No amount of pasta, spice and sauce can redeem this sin.

A reminder:

I have never had even passable social skills. But when I started my career, I worked on them for years to the point where I was a somewhat passable normie. Then COVID destroyed all that work and now I'm a cave troll again.

Almost finished writing #MoonlightDirge chapter 1's VN script. I hope to get a few beautiful fullscreen illustrations of Tsukino and Aerine's fight slipped into it. 💜

In case y'all are wondering, Gen AI is being used regularly in major studios and they are not admitting it.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

EU: The European Union will require sale of mobile phones with “user-replaceable and longer-lasting batteries” starting in 2027. The regulation demands “availability of spare parts and manuals for 10 years to curb planned obsolescence”.
