January was a hard month but I'm still having fun doing my monthly daily little drawings and these owls were fun to do! I switched over my journal this year from an a6 hobonichi techo to a midori hibino so the squares are a little different and smaller :O

Just a reminder, the greatest living American historian filmmaker, Ken Burns, released a 720 min exploration of every facet of the American revolution using zero generative AI and paying for all of its assets instead of cobbling it from stolen data, then he gave it away for free on PBS this year.

Thanks to all your amazing Kickstarter support, we've commissioned an artist to do interior art for our year 1 issues! @demonography.bsky.social did an amazing job 🪐🗡️ Please enjoy this teaser of their incredible art. We love these lil guys! We can’t wait to share our first issue in March!

I don’t want to formulate words yet, but my friend Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social of the Disability Visibility Project, has passed. Here are the words she left behind: www.instagram.com/p/DREMDNBjnq...

Hey friends, you don’t have to produce any kind of thing or object or media to be a part of a group of friends. Just being alive is enough. I love you,

The two inevitable technologies that VC ends up reinventing are phrenology and the bus.

Here are some nice mushrooms

I love living here, always so grateful

I've been quietly doing cozy nestober prompts for this year's daily October drawings www.instagram.com/hello.nestob... The first two are "nest" and "tea" - my favourite things in the fall weather! This year i'm focused on making little scenes. #nestober2025

Calling for an end to illegal settlements is not controversial Being in favour of enforcing international law is not controversial Condemning the murder of journalists, doctors, and children is not controversial Calling for an arms embargo is not controversial

Not to make light of the horrible rude things people have said to me about my other identities but sometimes people say the weirdest things when they find out I’m vegetarian

proposing a sort of horseshoe theory for UX design: where the ultimate way to improve a user’s (life) experience is by making an app/OS so painful to use that they log off entirely

Have to post this sweet riso print I drew and The Washi Station (www.avivamaiartzy.com/thewashistat...) printed for a collab last year featuring some trans bugs and Luna the cat ❤️ Love these collaborations!!! And always learning something new and pushing myself when it comes to print and riso.

Cooking up something small and fun with the little monthly squares I've been doing!

I realized that maybe I should have put these monthly daily drawings in a thread. Oh well! Here is June’s list, if anyone also wants to draw these lil guys!! It’s amphibians this month! Text list in alt text 💚

We’re two and a half years into the AI hype cycle. How is it still going? This week @emilymbender.bsky.social and @alexhanna.bsky.social join @parismarx.com to dig into the harms of generative AI and industry strategies to keep the public’s attention. Full ep: techwontsave.us/episode/277_...

For a couple of years we had uncanny valley videos of imaginary disfigured people writhing on the floor in an airport. You could watch it on your phone which was sort of a small television your boss could also yell at you on. Anyway that's why birds are extinct now

Still a bit of a work in progress but I finally updated my website 🥳 built using @astro.build because I wanted somewhere where I can put up some templated pages instead of the more simple one-page site I had. and also more photos of my cat hehehee

Tom Humberstone's excellent comic about the Luddites' history. thenib.com/im-a-luddite/

I have a bit of a backlog on these now and i've been Very Sick but still having fun doing my monthly dailies. Here is my March one (March flowers!) 🌸 #FlowerIllustrations #FlowerDrawings #flora #hobonichi #calendar

Updating website finally and making tiny friends

Here are some nice mushrooms

I love cherry blossom season and it makes me so happy to live here / also super allergic 🤧

The emboldened, rising tide of fascism in the US has me reflecting a lot about the importance of standing up for our marginalized communities in meaningful ways. There is power in unity - we must build our communities, support our neighbors, and stand together.

Fishy February was fun! Drew a lot of fish friends. #FishIllustrations #FishDrawings #hobonichi #calendar

There are truly evil forces at work attempting to privatize our postal service. Be skeptical of anything you read on platforms owned by people who benefit from privatization of public services!

The ceo of the company I work for at my day job thought it was more important to send a company wide email about the tariffs than to acknowledge anything about DEI or Black History Month so that’s how everything in the world is going 🚮🔥

My partner made this so I’m onto doing a fish a day in my hobonichi calendar spread!!!!

Had a good ol time this year drawing birds all month #BirbFest2025 #BirdIllustrations #hobonichi #calendar

New drawings for profiles for 2025 ✨ featuring my cat
