This is Denni. She took an unexpected babysitting shift when she found a baby koala in her yard. She cheerfully delivered the joey to her human, who put them back in the tree to be reunited with their mom. 14/10 (FB: Steve Lamplough)

This is tech/marketing people leveraging decades of science fiction media presenting "AI" as generally encyclopedic and infallible. People think they're getting JARVIS, when what they're getting is the machine version of that annoying dude in your dorm confidently spouting bullshit on every subject

And that's how you integrate digital elements into an exhibition. Part of the temporary "China's Dinosaur World" at the Shanghai Natural History Museum, China. Closing this November. Video source: Shanghai Let's Meet

It’s a lot harder to get the cyan off the back of my left hand than I expected. The base coat is surplus spray paint that was brought to me in the Adirondacks about a year ago from the Brooklyn studio that burned a couple of weeks ago. The painting is about what we are losing.

Visited someone with an amazing home garden yesterday for a tour and spent so much time petting a very friendly dog and taking in everything we were being shown that all I remembered to get photos of was the frogs around the pond and a couple pics of a ladybug. #frogs #homegarden

Morning walk

Cool little treehopper I found on my shirt a couple days ago after a walk in the yard. The species name is apparently ‘Carynota mera’, looked it up in iNautralist because I wasn’t sure I’d ever seen this species of treehopper before. always a cool experience.

I’mma be completely honest, when I woke up a few days ago and checked Bluesky while not fully awake only to see people saying ‘Charlie Kirk got shot’ my first thought was “wait, who? Is that the Star Trek guy or-?” Like I legit did not know who he was whatsoever.

Shortly afterwards, yet another piece of fanart of @atlasanarchy.bsky.social’s gremlin #art #fanart #VTuber #MegaSableye

Spent a bit this evening doodling this fanart of @atlasanarchy.bsky.social

Found something fun on Pokémon Go today! #Pokémon #Shiny #Zapdos #PokémonGo

The upside of it raining during the local festival we went to yesterday: 🫧the bubbles from the stand with the bubble machine stayed when they hit the grass🫧

You + your favorite Pokémon!

They should do it anyway for the environmental benefits.

Good morning This meme has never made more sense

Walking my dog while also walking my virtual dog-shaped gestalt this morning. #Zygarde #Pokemon #Blueheeler

As seen at my local county fair.

Apple season has evidently begun, can’t wait for the homemade applesauce, cider, and other things! Kinda fitting that the Hydrapple event is coming to Pokémon Go.🍎🐲 #Pokémon #PokémonGo #Appletun #Flapple #Applin

Spent a bit this evening out in the yard, got some nice photos 1/2

Found my ‘nose’ finally after several months, apparently I left it in the pocket of a jacket and forgot. Nice to have a pencil sharpener in evidence again because all the pencils were severely in need of it.

...You're welcome...??

The most majestic thing you will see on #bluesky today. 😇

So a moth just nearly started a house fire in my living room tonight by self-immolating on the lightbulb of a lamp. I saw it actually start *smoking* before I rushed over to turn the lamp off!

Something I aspire to, both as an artist in terms of the art style of the piece, and on a personal life philosophy level. Sometimes things go to hell in a handbasket, sometimes we feel like shit and people are awful, but spite and resilience can work together to help you, if you can tell them apart.

Blue Mew Acquired! #Pokémon #Mew #PokémonGO

Whimsicott doodle with blacklight detailing from last week. Just barely getting back into having motivation to do art again and still need to find the damn pencil sharpener, but this was fun.

Majorly underrated creature design concept in my opinion is adding fantasy elements to lemurs and general Protosimians.

Why are the new Minecraft Ghastlings basically sea-monkeys but sky squid? When you first get them they’re all dried out, and then you add water and soon there’s a bunch of little creatures floating around.

I love the combination of whimsy and practicality the new Ghasts are going to add to Minecraft so much! honestly can’t wait for the snapshots featuring them and the potential sky-ports and mixed stables players might build for Ghast travel☺️

Fastest mode of travelling in past Pokémon games: Sword and Shield: Bicycle Scarlet and Violet: Koraidon/Miraidon Legends: Arceus: Summon one of the five Noble Pokémon Legends: Z-A:

Pokémon Legends ZA is already looking AMAZING! I’m hoping that bit we got in the trailer where the player hopped rooftops means there’s some degree of parkour mechanics, also if @gnoggin.net actually predicted a Fire/Fairy Emboar I am going to be so flipping happy

The void says ‘good morning’

Just finished detailing a Mothman I started as a doodle a few days ago #Art #blacklight #cryptid

Does anyone else occasionally just vibe while listening to recordings of hyena ‘laughs’ or elk bugles?

One of the things I really like about the Pokémon franchise that I feel gets overlooked is the sheer potential for storytelling it all has. 1,000+ different creatures that, either individually or with the added context of one or two others, bring up interesting story ideas.

Just finished drawing this blacklight Spiritomb piece. messed around a bunch with a bit of everything in terms of my different blacklight reactive materials on this one, which maybe wasn’t the best choice on this specific type of paper, but it turned out ok anyway. #pokémon #art #blacklight #fanart

@fenarimori.bsky.social was playing a heavily Sesame Street/Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood-inspired game on stream recently, so I figured it was an excuse to do more VTuber Muppet fanart😅 #blacklight #art #fanart

When you’re trying not to spill an overfilled bowl of soup, so instead you accidentally spill an entire pack of 96 crayons.

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references. Enter this: a repository of open-access, AI-free images of wild & exotic taxa. Artists creating *without AI* have blanket permission for derivative/transformative use.

Drew a scene from my most recent Pokémon fanfic with blacklight detailing a few days ago. The Zorua line and particularly their Hisuian variant using illusions for both physical comedy and body horror is a very underrated concept. #pokémon #art #Zorua #blacklight

I have to wonder how many times in-universe criminals in Gotham have been jumpscared by cats’ shadows looking like this.

Just making sure that everyone is aware of this crab that NOAA scientists found

The adaptable ones, think coyotes, pigeons, raccoons, corvids, and some parrots. Huge manmade environmental pressures forcing animals into places they might not otherwise go isn’t a good thing, but it’s still interesting to me to see some species adapt so well to different environments.
