I apologize for the quiet on my end. Depression has been kicking my ass as of late, on top of my workplace being a fucking monster. I have things in the works that aren't quite ready yet, but this is me breaching the sea of depression for a breath before I sink back.

Posting this for no particular reason:

Interesting to see McConnell honoring the ancient pharaoh's tradition of taking your pet along with you to the afterlife

The ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo deserves the same fury as Renee Good and Alex Pretti

ICE shot this man, a loving husband and father of three, dead, for the crime of going to work Tuesday morning. His family's gofundme for funeral/services is about halfway to its goal gofund.me/660ca4364

You know I had to. Again. Again.

my first attack of the year!! zozola for @caeliamer.com!! #lulunart #artfight2026

Fuck yes Illinois, let's fucking GOOOOOOOOOOOO That first one is a game changer for my transmasc peeps.

July is Disability Pride Month! This year it’s especially relevant as I have been coming to terms with the fact that I am in fact disabled.

If buying isn’t ownership, piracy isn’t theft

I can't guarantee I'll be super active on #ArtFight this year, but you can find me in #TeamMystery at artfight.net/~CaeliaMer

Happy #FreeRPG day, y'all! I'm giving away all 3 of my full 5e adventures AND my major arcana system for 5e to ya. Free. Though I don't get to do much TTRPG work, I'm still really proud of these titles, and I hope you have some fun with them at your tables. The giveaway includes:

If you missed it, I got a new thing in the shop. It is a neat thing. Please enjoy neat thing.

Hey all, pardon to bother, but I could really use $20 to get me through the day and to payday tomorrow. If you'd like to help, here's the thingy. cash.me/$Versusvice

at some point it's probably best to accept the human experience is largely deterministic and that you can't magically Will Save your way through your past experiences/upbringing making you act negatively

seeing that folks have already pointed it out but also just want to say it right alongside the image: if you see something like this for a captcha, this is malware. close out of the page if this happens, do not follow the prompts.

I may not get to participate a TON this year but I am on #TeamMystery for #ArtFight2026!

No AI. Does that make my piece awesome? Nah. But it makes every brush stroke, every line, every color choice, every creative decision, every goddamn pixel wholly mine. I made this, from sketch to final. I'm proud of the result. Me, an idea, and CSP. And that IS awesome.

Obligatory "How it started/how it's going" #Zelda #digitalart

GenAI furthers the goal of fascism. I don't care what justification you use, if you utilize GenAI, you're supporting the fascist agenda and playbook. I'll expound on this when I get home from work later.

Hi I've been too unwell to make things and I'm low on dopamine so if you haven't listened to my Scream cover from last month pls consider giving it a listen

THIS MONTH! Get 50% off your first month's subscription to my Patreon - yes! Even the tier that gets a free piece of original artwork! All tiers get access to all seven books of the completed Fae Realm Series in e-book format & behind the scenes videos of my paintings! www.patreon.com/cozykathryn

It needs to either rain or fuck off today. I'm in such migraine hell right now and I'm stuck working solo tonight. Again. For the 5th day in a row.

New painting complete! Luna and the Moth 9" x 12" Watercolor on cotton paper I can really see myself improving with each new painting I do 🥰

Original painting for sale on my ko-fi!

You know I had to do it. Again. Again.

It has been 0 days since Versus had a justifiable crash out WRT work. I swear, the company I work for is equal parts evil and incompetent. I need out so bad, but I can't stop working. Capitalism sucks.

The original painting is for sale on my shop!

So uh...I lent my voice to this project and I had no idea it was done but apparently it was done months ago! I blame the YT algorithm tbh www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymoG...

Just released my first leather pattern for supporters over on Patreon and Ko-fi. enjoy!

I'll be going live on twitch at/around 7pm CST with more V Rising. Did a little bit of work off-stream to get started with a proper castle build, and I'll be adding onto it as I'm able. While we wait on the materials, we can go mess up/get messed up by some bosses. www.twitch.tv/violet__viol...

this game owns. absolutely pick this up while it's free

happy Pride Eve to all the people who are about to paraphrase this tweet from 2022 or repost it with my name removed as if it’s a thought they just had themselves

Being unmedicated and neurodivergent for me is feeling so close to a crash out due to paranoia, frustration, and stress, but not being able to point at a single thing to say "This is why I'm angry!" I feel like an explosive with a hair trigger, and I hate it. But I hate not knowing why more.

🎶This tweet is really catchy and you know I cannot tell a lie...

Yup. We're biting the bullet on this to help get our dreams going. This would also allow me to do more fan art prints safely as limited runs on top of original art. Help appreciated, even if it's just a share. 🤘

quoting this so it shows up on my profile: i could use some help paying for this hotel room (the closest to my new apartment that accepts pets), because i unfortunately won't be able to my new apartment the day i move out of the current one. links in the quoted post!!

The person who purchased my Orange Chai Cake painting also commissioned a recipe card to match. I think they'll look pretty dang good together!

You know I had to
