"whatever, everyone already uses it anyway so it's fine" is just not really the message a sorry person promotes. I'm frustrated by how everyone just gave him the benefit of the doubt. I'm not feeling very forgiving when this is the messaging. I don't think I'm being unreasonable either

Balcony bird and my hummingbird that lives in the tree across the street were almost fighting in front of me this morning! Theres too much nature happening too close to me and im scared!

All 6 of my butterflies are now out and flapping around! Felt bad about keeping them cooped up so one already flew off. Waiting on the others to be ready to fly

🎶 Do you ever feel like a plastic knife, crushed by a hundred cars, ready to cut a b 🎶

The kids are alright

"Faster, more efficient" = cutting artists and animators "3rd party video models w/ a proprietary model portfolio" = we won't tell you what data we trained off of (likely stolen) A bill in Cali would force AI transparency, but it needs YOUR help! Please sign this petition tinyurl.com/4uxbp963 1/

“If we have smaller crews we can make more shows for less money!” Ok but if the shows suck theres no guarantee of profit. Also why tf would kids buy merch of something that looks an uncanny valley sonny angel from the depths of facebook hell. It all looks the same.

Not even 8am and a chihuahua in a fleece jacket just jumped out a car window in front of me. Im too tired for this.

Kitty cuddles to cleanse the timeline

“Its just a tool” Ok and so are you for thinking that. Next!

I was right about NFTs and I'll be right about gen AI in animation. If you try to justify it in your production it's going to be a stain on your reputation.

yikes :(

Oh…… fuck you then

ah, was this what people meant about more animation big names getting on board with AI because this one breaks me.

I think i offended a preschooler by asking if she needed to hold someone’s hand before crossing the road. Apparently the answer for her is no, but little dude that was a valid question!

Shoutout to the older lady who wanted to chat bc im “not an old lady crossing guard” and “thats weird” but also then pointed out each neighbor and either said theyre a millionaire, or theyre annoying, or theyre nepo home owners. I didnt ask anything but i learned SO much 😂

Restaurant near by childhood home called Khios. I only ever ordered their Avgolemono soup. It either had no chicken or the chicken/veggies was so well blended into the soup that the only texture was smooth soup and soft rice omfg i love that soup

Got to see the South Pas bike bus in person today and omg. I feel like im in a cheesy sitcom that was so idealistic and sweet

I think Poppy is bffs with the balcony bird. Every evening it comes back and loudly announces that. Poppy meows back at it a bunch like they’re chitchatting and then shes got the zoomies when birdy is in his house for the night. Im living in a cartoon.

Love seeing older shows again, but is this just buying time bc they dont have enough new shows in the works to keep their viewers from losing interest? Make new shows, please!

While at work today a man on a bike started some small talk by asking about my tattoo which is totally fine. He asked when I got it and said 2021. But then he asked “did you need to ask permission to get it?” 😐 Just bike away. its weird now.

Yo. what kind of bird is this? Ik you cant see it but i got the sound and vague outline as they weasel into my hummingbird house

Im not applying to cattle call job postings. I cant do it any more. It just feels like aura and data farming. Yuck.

The economy is so bad, my mom sent me a video of a girl making money off of reselling things she finds in dumpsters behind big stores. “Good side gig” Omg

These parents line up and create so much traffic to pick up their kids from school. In the same time they couldve parked a block or two away, walked to get their kid, walked back to their car, and driven home. Why is everyone just making a car line??

Oh no. Im becoming known at trader joes as the lady who buys chocolate oat milk every morning. This is what my life has become. Its so good tho

Almost late for work bc i was gagging at the smell of what i can only assume is someone smoking a joint wrapped with cilantro and mint at 7:30am. Or maybe someone was hitting a mint vape without brushing their teeth either way WTF BRO

Tried to get my new bird neighbor on video to figure out what kind it is but Loki wouldnt stop talking

Watching the netflix doc about the deadpool killer and omfg the incompetence of the police is expected but WOW that first detective better be fired without benefits and every one of his cases investigated bc wtf was that!!

Cats meet the ‘pillars

Been SO LONG since I’ve been to figure drawing session. Back at the ctn space where I started doing weekly drawing when I first moved to LA. Nostalgic. More on Instagram ofc.

So the middle school I sometimes work at where I complain about kids running into the road? Apparently last month on a day I wasnt there, a kid ran into the road outside the crosswalk and was hit by a car. Jfc, dude it was only a matter of time but damn.

Shoutout to the lady who just drove by with a big ol’ elote on the cob while shes driving. Idk if its more dangerous to eat out of a bowl or off the cob while driving, but youve given me a lot to think about.

Someone is smoking a cigarette next to me and I cant leave bc im working. Can we outlaw this shit already?

Working as the crossing guard in glendale and one of the teachers said “sorry we’re not used to having a real guard. The other guy was much more lenient” GIRL WHAT

Going to be fully unemployed in a few weeks and still tempted to spend ~$90 on the pattern kit to make the fox sweater from Project Hail Mary. My money is not safe with me when i have free time.

I want to go back to work in the office. But also…if im not home who will comfort Poppy when wakes up from her vivid dreams 4X a day?? She needs cuddles and Loki has personal bubble issues!!

Please watch on repeat for the rest of 2026 so they order more episodes and i can have a job 🙏 thx

Omg my caterpillars are supposed to be here this week! Little babiessss

Cat parents: birdie and louie is kitty approved food. I had to change their wet food because Poppy has a sensitive stomach and after trying the sample box, they loved every flavor and stopped eating all of their previous food. Thats a happy baby right there.

The only reason I am still able to live in LA and work in animation is because i was incredibly lucky to get hired on an ever returning legacy show. But even with this, I am still am unemployed every other year for over a year each time. This is unsustainable.

This causes multiple problems. Short gigs, lack of time to build momentum and audience, the crew trained to make this specific show are let go, hard to survive or feel safe. Show quality suffers, stories don’t have time to develop.

Oh hi neighbor!

Swiped a bunch of jacaranda seed pods from the street today. I have some planted from last year but maybe i can get a few more baby trees going 🥰

Getting a smog check feels like a scam tbh. Like i get why the state wants it done, but also damn. This is annoying.

Made a crochet shrug in less than a day bc i was scared to show my shoulders in a catholic church but i got to see my friend get married so it was a win!

His little nose is gonna sunburn! My boy!

Keep seeing articles about the hantavirus cruise passengers on flights back home all around the globe and them saying “i just want to go home” is ridiculous. With 2020 in recent memory, you’d think more would be willing to be EXTRA cautious to not spread disease.

Sometimes a toddler is just gonna yell from their stroller at you about going to the park? Maybe a car? Smile and wave, boys. Even mom didnt catch that.
