my part of trade with my beloved @seviida.bsky.social 🖤 smootching your character all day long, thank you so so much! 🥰🌹 [ #ocsky #art #digitalart #arttrade ]

I'll note that "the last" is at least stretched by one website, because @ocremix.org has been around since 1999 and it just as functional now as it has ever been -- over five thousand pieces of music posted in support of the site's mission to "promote video game music as an art form."

I am not immune to twintailed, overpowered, elven mage. #wip

Data is correct, causal agency is (IMO) incorrect. The vast majority of ppl who use AI to make images and video have never touched and would never touch Photoshop/AfterEffects/Illustrator/etc. The issue is Adobe trying to squeeze its users with subscriptions, and other customer-hostile behavior.

You know what? 2026 is the year I'm not playing nice anymore. If copyright means so little to use A / I for playing around, here's one of his book for free: Color and Light James Gurney [English] : Free Download, Internet Archive share.google/qjDjFS6QhhZJ...

Belated Happy #PortfolioDay! I'm Etlu, an illustrator, graphic designer and budding lettering artist. My favourite pieces play with bright, vibrant colours and stark contrasts of dark and light, and tell stories that are littered with hidden easter eggs if you look hard enough.

Idk who this helps, but if you, like me, have been using Notion as a work/life database for the past 5 years and are also tired of companies forcing AI onto all of their products, I recently found out you can email Notion support and ask them to manually disable the AI features in your account

Hi #portfolioday ! I'm winding down freelance work and winding up a TTRPG project I hope to get kickstarted, so here is some work for my last TTRPG, The Woods At Blight's Hollow! Please to follow me if you like this work and want to learn about/support new game Heretic Star

The best burn came when my therapist was asking about how AI affects my job, whether I was worried about it, etc. I said that I was watching/waiting for the bubble to burst, just like NFTs did "... OH! RIGHT! NFTS WERE A THING! WEREN'T THEY?" It's deeply amusing how quickly they were forgotten 😂

We don’t dance on the grave of NFTs enough. I had a year where I was repeatedly told by bozos I was going to be irrelevant and extinct for not embracing them, I should be allowed a victory lap.

Painted a ladybug + snail today. A Snailbug?

Things can be whatever color you want. People will critique your realistic shading or perspective or anatomy but no one cares if your grass is green.

Ah, I see we're back in the spotify "shuffle" loop once again, after admiring vocals in a song I haven't heard "in a while" (... it's been thrown at me like three times in the last two days. Spotify please,,, there are over 6,000 songs in that list. Whyyyyy)

Every single fucking time, I swear.

Entries are now open for the Wheeler Centre's Hot Desk Fellowships for emerging writers! I was in the very first cohort of Fellows & used my Hot Desk to work on my first book 'Out of Shape'. I went in there daily like it was my job, & got heaps done. Highly recommend this program!

Everything is really scary and horrible, and on the utter flipside, we made these really adorable valentines. The dissonance of seeing horror, then posting "hey buy some cute valentines" is making me feel loopy. But also nice things persist despite terror? Ugh idk. Get 'em at SquidFacts.net

finishing this off with various other old and new unicorn Wilhelminas...

throwback to that whole set of unicorn girlies I made 10-ish years ago with the goal of compiling them into a little zine (which I never did cause I lost steam and also some of them su... I mean, did not stand the test of time) #art

and Emilys :^)

if you're starting to dislike your art, you're probably just noticing things you want to fix or adjust and that means you're on your way to leveling up- if you recognize it and practice.

If there's a particular art thing that you don't understand or think you missed learning, look into it. Still reckon that one of the best grounding things I learnt that I apply weekly if not daily to my art, was from Information Processes & Tech in high school. File types and raster vs vector.

The thing that depresses me in the whole AI revolution in my industry (I’m a literary translator and publisher) is that the question is not whether machines can replace human translators, but how will we deal with the fallout after machines are forcibly introduced regardless.

Here is a video of a frozen creek that had begun to thaw, and the water was flowing beneath the thin ice on top. I took this because it was soothing and wonderfully bloopy and I wanted to listen to it for hours. You are all welcome to enjoy it, too. Let your brain settle here and rest for a moment.

Here are the Walwa and Longwood line scans (as of 3:30pm 10 Jan) to give you an idea of the scale of the fires when overlaid on the base Melbourne map. Yikes! #VicFires

Fun update; NSW "Fires near me" actually shows the Walwa fire and all the Victorian warning overlays now!

Sit Rep: 8am 10 Jan 2026 The cool change arrived, but there are lots of active fire grounds. State wide TFB Lots of smoke everywhere. Don't be a disaster tourist! 19 Emergency Warnings 16 Watch and Act 37 Watch and Act 4 Community Info #VicFires

Cannot get over how this Walwa fire seems to just magically end warning zones at the border. It doesn't even *register* on the NSW maps. (It does turn up on the NSW App, but it looks like it's just getting the information from Victoria where, y'know, it magically stops at the border boundary)

5pm Sit Rep. The day has played out as predicted. The predictions were for a bad day. It will be going for many days yet. Situation is very dynamic. 21 Emergency Warnings 12 Watch and Acts 17 Advice Messages #VicFires

I have no idea whether the pharmacy system going down is just a local problem or a wider problem or a localized-but-wider-problem, but it sure as hell doesn't fill me with confidence when the Emergency Vic website keeps glitching out too.

One of the best pieces of advice my mom ever gave me was you don’t have to show up to every fight.” When we’re all stressed and afraid, infighting can happen and I beg you to know which arguments are worthwhile and which are going to lead nowhere productive

I forgot the worst part of fire season is waiting for the map updates. "Updates in x-many hours or as the situation changes" Not!! Helpful!!! 💀

Catastrophic fire rating areas are likely to be CATASTROPHIC. Ambulance services have declared a red escalation for Catastrophic rated areas. You're on your own, if you're still there. V/Line isn't running, and will not replace with buses. Listen to this man's voice. Take action now.

Reminder, don't rely on the Facebook timeline to show you the latest warnings from Agencies. Look at their native page and refresh. Also don't use their Twitter pages because well, Twitter is dead. #VicFires
