I can't make it to ECCC this year, but that doesn't mean I didn't put something together for all y'all! My first digital download print sized at 24"x31" for when you need to make your opinions known. valentinebarker.com/product/musi...

Reflecting how much of my engagement with my favorite media is based on comfort seeking. Putting aside the healthiness or morality of it, just, thinking about the intense need to fill a sense of emptiness and solitude in my IRL existence.

This is SOOO GOODDDD I dieee 😭👏🏻

It's Friday, time for a regular upload of Synexn City. It was always supposed to be a day trip - maybe we'll get out. NEW PAGE OUT!! New Reader: synexncity.thecomicseries.com New Page: synexn.city/comics/266/ #synexncity #webcomic #sinofsorcery #comic #マンガ #webcomics #艺术 #宇宙狸 #blackhistorymonth

oTL Please don't do this to me, that was the year before I graduated college Also I guess that's my age verification too

oh NICEEE

growing up in Texas I heard so much music in Spanish. So much of it slaps. You can feel the emotions in the music and performance even if you don't know the words. I have entire playlists full of J-pop and rock where I only know what a word or two means. It's still amazing and full of passion.

getting upset because you listened to music in a language you didn't understand reveals either a fundamental lack of engagement with art or just plain racism, I'm sorry

sometimes magical, always anti-fascist. #fuckice #abolishice

This is so precious 😭

Toot toot beep beep

MY HEARRTTTT 😭

God, this is so on point

disallowing quote posts on this because people are trying to explain what psychosis is to me

Another post from a Venezuelan friend:

Sharing what a Venezuelan said:

It might also be worthwhile to remember that Venezuela is a whole country with different political positions. There is not a single voice to uplift, and usually, the people cheering for the bombing of their country are not the best to be listening to

Not saying only right wingers are happy about Maduro, but not a lot of leftists are gonna be cheering for trump, and their voices are not less valid. Anyways, just something to think about in case you find it useful.

Something a lot of Americans and other people who are intellectualizing what's happening in Venezuela don't seem to understand: We are not living in a time of peace If you've never been bombed, if you've never been at the risk of a genocide or a war, you're privileged. You're a rarity

For people that feel helpless, this period is so tough but there's ways to help for anyone. Go out there support Venezuelan ppl and artists living in it as they prepare for unpredictable times Here is a starter pack of artists with commissions or donations open as well: go.bsky.app/8daQmpX

This piece, from the great @elevidalbe.bsky.social in 2024, is still and particularly relevant right now: stop telling Venezuelans how to think or feel in this moment globalvoices.org/2024/08/09/d...

I've been thinking this all day. Swedish Radio had interviews with people in Venezuela, people in the neighbourhood near where Maduro was grabbed, and I realized then how much I had missed hearing about the real reality of what happened rather than "expert analysis".

A commission for @animatiatrain.bsky.social for their animated short for their Debut Novel! An incredible honor to be able to be part of it! Happy Halloween! #illustration #art #vampires #TheVampirePainter

Anyway folks: 1. Mutual aid to Venezuelans 2. To my US folk esp, write your representatives and senators, tell em you're not on board with imperialism 3. Read up on US-LATAM relations for extra credit

Today I have been both of these people except without the six figure job and more of a bewildered daze vibe vs the hyperfem vibe of the first. Binging Donkey Kong Bananza to try to, I dunno, get my brain to normalcy. Also eating Platanitos instead of Cheezits. youtube.com/shorts/qAX3d...

It has been done. Anyway @radiostarkiller.bsky.social has really cool art y'all should go give them money #awesomeprojects

Please help! I need my vitamins and meds!

ICE in Burnsville, MN followed a family home, broke down their door, and abducted 4 of them at gunpoint including the parents of a 7 year old and the husband of a pregnant woman. All of this occurred without a warrant for a home owned by a US citizen. (12/6/25)

The way I would just *binge* all the videos on a channel like that if it existed

God, I wish. Signed, a hairy heckin lady.

Without saying your age, drop a gif of the first video game you played!

EVERYONE GO COMMISSION ARTI HE'S THE BEST LOOK WHAT THEY MADE FOR ME bsky.app/profile/unce...

YUUUUP. It's not often and even the few times I do genuinely like my writing, is something that took a lot of therapy to work up to. But it's definitely been one of the joys of my 30s, after a lifetime of not being to stand my own writing.

Conversely his actual real voice is closer to something like Jax from Digital Circus if he had a Boston/French "space" accent. Instead! Which he slips into when he's to excited or truely emotional.

Aahhh I love this sequence!

I write lyrics for my comic as well as the plot. Have a few song written now that characters sing. The first one featured in two currently uploaded pages. Had help with the spanish from @sevenlascaras.bsky.social #songwriting #lyrics #synexncity #sinofsorcery #music #songs

So much of fantasy and science fiction (obviously not all) is a warning against arrogance, hate and prejudice, against wealthy elites who accumulate wealth and power at all costs and how they pervert society and destroy lives. And yet technofascists like Musk are intent on misreading these works

My birthday is tomorrow!
