i’m retiring this piece so if you ever yearned for it, post haste it will stay up until i run out 🖤

Storm in the sketchbook. @trungles.com drew a banger yesterday that made me want to draw her too. Thanks for the inspiration. :)

Another reason to rethink the strategy of putting wasteful data centers on every corner of the map. Companies like Amazon will profit off this proliferation and will leave residents with the environmental and health costs: futurism.com/artificial-i...

My phone has 1% but 🥲

I store all of my sketches in the cloud. 🤭😎

It was raining outside last night, a steady patter of raindrops washing away the canvas that the weeks had painted on. My flowers sit at the windowsill with the window open, and I wonder if they hear it too, and if it makes them homesick. Where is home, I ask them. It's a place that I look for, too.

Do you ever see a vibrant flower, a cat stretching, or a shiny, glittery rock and think to yourself "Wow, I'm so lucky and unworthy to witness this."

And now for my latest masterpiece: Birb The Louvre contacted me about this piece, but they couldn't guarantee its safety in light of recent events, so I'm keeping this in my possession. 😅 It's hard to believe that I never had any formal drawing lessons. 🤭😭🐦

We are very much in love and want a life together. But money is tight because I've been sick. This has made it hard to work this year - I have content upcoming, but for now I'm in a tough spot.

I make really shitty shadow puppets on the wall of a bird, meanwhile my plants create human-like faces with an elongated chin, eye holes, a small hat, and a torso.

Okay well now these two need their own sitcom.

This article devoted one sentence on the impact on immigrants while the rest was on the impact on consumers and the bourgeoisie. We have to stop framing human rights from the perspective of humans as commodities. People don't exist to deliver your food. www.politico.com/news/magazin...

We are going to avoid worst case climate projections because of them…but at what cost?

I participated in the Outrun Addiction 5K virtual walk / run today. Surely after not running for months (that's plural) my 45 year old body can handle this. Let's give a play-by-play. Mile: 0.00 I leave my apartment and spend 15 minutes navigating around a rudely timed festival.

update: i thought we raised enough to get maha and her baby safe transport south closer to the hospital so hamoud can receive treatment and away from the bombing but turns out no one will take her for the amount we raised ($700 USD after fees). please help out if you can ❤️ gofund.me/33cf03577

I think I've spent a good part of this last year working long hours and just going to bed right after. It's almost like I've lost part of my personality. It might even be a way for me to cope, but I'd very much like to change this soon. 😅

"This could have been an email" I mutter to an annoyed Saint Peter, as he reads off each and every one of the dark humor jokes that I laughed at until I wheezed, while saying "I'm going to hell for this."

How did I miss June!? Was I too busy disassociating to listen to music that month?

Went to a local park with a close friend to catch up when I spotted this propped up against a tree. Now the logical part of my brain figured that a child dropped it along the path and someone moved it. The horror part of my brain was kind of expecting it to show up everywhere saying "Come play!"

They looked so soap-rised after it Dawned on them.

This would be exciting if it were a sci-fi novel, but it's not and there isn't much in terms of guardrails, regulatory bodies, or ethics oversight to protect us from companies racing to produce artificial superintelligence (ASI) while only pinky swearing safety. www.livescience.com/technology/a...

In a thunderclap I go, tearing the veil of the sky. There is no farewell, only the sudden heartbeat of the storm opening the way. The rain will be my echo, the light my wake, and in the silence after my name will remain whispered by the clouds. #StandingMountain
