Felt a little Florence Welch and a little Stevie Nicks with this one. #sketch #art #wip

GOOD.

It appears that this legend owns a little bookstore — and you can order books from him instead of Bezos. Link in next post.

Some safety tips for the big storm! Be safe, everybody.

We got a lot of sleet last night, so I let Arwen out on my patio just to see how she’d react. I’m dying over her little paw prints. 🥺

Vigils were held around Minneapolis and beyond Saturday night in the wake of the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti by federal agents. Photo and video: Jeff Wheeler, Anthony Souffle, Simon Peter Groebner/The Minnesota Star Tribune.

It’s cold. Time to watch The Thing.

Trying not to panic about completely zero shop orders right now 😬 If you've had your eye on something check it out, I also listed some new paintings if you are looking for a special piece for Valentines nimasprout.shop

At that stage where I’m like, ‘What if I just got another piercing. Maybe that’ll fix all my problems.’

I've been sick for nearly a week and am finally feeling well enough where I have energy to do more than just laying stationary, blech.

I'm finally watching Casablanca for the first time and quickly realized 'Oohhh, Rick is Han Solo, got it.'

I totally forgot how delightfully ridiculous the Josie and the Pussycats movie is. It's also just about the most 2001 thing I've ever watched.

Feeling I'm constantly returning to the advice of Sonic Youth (itself a trenchant cultural entity to apply the following to): KILL YR IDOLS There's only peers: no superiors & no one "to look up to" in a sense of having put them on a pedestal, as there's less opportunity to be disappointed by them.

Sideways just came out with a video essay on Hellfire and music theory around The Hunchback of Notre Dame. I have been blessed.

Oh, to be a cat wrapped in a blanket cocoon.

I'm great at drawing hair, and having clean, detailed inks in general.

Watching the last half of Return of the King and thanking my lucky stars these movies got made when they did. If they came out now they’d be ruined simply by everyone having veneers.

Around this time last year I went through a period where I couldn’t find motivation to draw, and whatever I did try to draw wasn’t clicking for me. I experienced the same thing recently, but I think I pulled myself out of it. 🤞 #sketch #art

There’s a GoFundMe for Jonathan Ross’s legal expenses for murdering Renee Good. This violates GoFundMe’s Terms of Service. Everyone must report it. A thread on how to do that 🧵

My cat likes to bring me a toy mouse to play catch while I'm using the bathroom. So when I have to go in the middle of the night and without my glasses, she'll sometimes drop a small, brownish blur at my feet in the dark. I'm worried that one day I'll reach down and grab an actual dead animal.

I have like three shows I'm needing to watch, which of course means I'm instead binge-watching all of Fargo again. I always forget how much the music rocks.

A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

The victim of today's ICE shooting in Minneapolis has been identified by her mother as Renee Nicole Good, 37. www.startribune.com/ice-raids-mi...

I couldn’t say no to this lil guy at H Mart, but I didn’t know what I’d use it for. It’s now the keeper of my pen.

I started The Blue Prince yesterday, and I’ve never before played a game that’s so instantly made me feel like a big dumb idiot.

Happy 85th birthday to Hayao Miyazaki ♡

I started Fallout season 2 and am having to pull up Google every five minutes because I remember *so* little of what happened in the last season.

I got high last night and got way too emotional while watching the Welcome to Derry finale, oops.

Everything is just so much ALL THE TIME

Would love a single consequence.

Flash Friday Roundup! New original paintings currently available.✨ You can tell my brain is a bit unfocused regarding subject matter LMAO, but having fun painting. 🖌️ DM to purchase

Well, my former employer just kicked me off of the Adobe account, so now I'm trying out Affinity before biting the bullet and buying my own Adobe account. So far it's *grits teeth* fine.

This year i did what could only be described as “treading water”, then lost my job at the very tail of it to boot. I guess coming out from dealing with cancer last year, treading water should be seen as somewhat of a positive, but…eh. Hopefully next year will be better for me.

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)

Well, ya girl got laid off this morning. 🥲 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

QRP with your wing art! 🪽✨ #art #illustration

As we enter the New Year remember fear of making bad art is holding you back. Fear of people not liking your work is holding you back. Rejection is holding you back You'll make bad art, you'll have people not like your work, and you'll be rejected. Moving past it is half the job of being a creative

I swear, everything I know about BookTok I’ve learned against my will (from video essays). Like, what do you *mean* there are people who skip long paragraphs because they’re “boring” or just for the sake of going through more books in a year?? Do you actually like reading or not??

BREAKING. Enormous news in the hockey romance world... I am thrilled to announce that CHECK, PLEASE!: YEAR FIVE, a brand new volume of Check, Please! will be serialized in 2026. #omgcp 🏒🥧💕

I tried my hand at doing more handmade gifts this year, so here are a couple of ornaments I made (from a kit). They’re a little wonky, but turned out alright.
