nobody will remember: - your salary - how "busy" you were - how many hours you worked people will remember: - that one person or fictional character you could NOT shut up about, you made sure they never forget

THIS. Frustration tolerance is the key to getting good at anything at all, not just art. Socials media makes it so easy to compare yourself to others, but you just have to ignore that and have fun with your little drawings. Do it enough and you'll eventually get better through trial and error.

tell me you can see it too (and appreciate him dressed as a frog while you're at it bc it made me feel happy) #IscaBirdArt

i'm drawing hxvoc wearing that bandana i gave him back in the first luna rabbit episode and i realise the way i'm drawing him now is giving vibes of Way of the House Husband lmao

yeah i'm still feeling really tired...no stream tonight. i just wanna play on my Switch for a while (i finally unlocked the last island friend in Fantasy Life i and I need that Drop Rate bonus)

This is something about "AI" that I have a hard time putting into words, but creators just love the WORK. It's just fun. Even when it's hard. All the thinking, and all the detail work, and all the struggle, it makes the things we make, I don't know... have weight and value for us.

i'm kinda surprised that so far i'm doing kinda... okay? like. the adhd brain stuff is still there but like. it doesn't feel like i'm both Too Tired and Firing All Cylinders, and i'm not picking at my skin even half as much as I was before

Actually somewhat-massive news, COCONA, one of the members of the all-Japanese based-in-Korea group XG, has come out as non-binary transmasc and having had top surgery Which for an active idol in either country is just unheard of, never mind one at such a big group. They look amazing!

if i think about how hxvoc might've been made (in-universe) all i can picture is that comic that goes "great news! i've invented a robot that screams eternally" "why?" " "

Hey all, the team and I at @aimod.social are temporarily shutting down the labeler. I can't go into detail, but we discovered issues that could put me or the team at risk. We'll bring it back once we’re confident it's safe. Thank you so much for your understanding and for believing in us.

I'm begging any artists still using Twitter claiming it's integral to their work to just leave. It's been revealed the site works off a made up "credit score" from hell and punishes you for posting like a normal human being. Abandon Twitter for good. It's time. It's been time.

An easy way to explain luddites: Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand. And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before. That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.

i found the instrumental for To The Moon And Back we are COOKING, babie!!

the thing about extreme content in video games is that the most appalling taboo porn game on the internet is still more artstically valid and has more reason to exist than Roblox

Here’s my Spotify Wrapped 🎵✨

the first thing i thought of today was "oh man a hxvoc cover of To The Moon And Back would go hard" but then i remembered. i gotta do the Invisible cover first or my friend will keep ribbing me (affectionate) about it

you might guess but it's true: i'm a sucker for big tinted glasses from the seventies

Thank you to @lizbushouse.bsky.social and @marzgurl.com for links that made this easier (Kaylyn made a good thread of examples and Liz provided the link below) Strongly consider doing this too if you care about the increase usage of A.i. when it comes to art

These people want legal clearance for murder at scale, and they can just say it out loud, in public. Meanwhile, in here, if we get a little colorful expressing our derision for these monsters, the ban-hammer finds us with a pointed quickness.

#IscaBirdArt put that man in outfits....NOW

It's not about if Horses is good or if you like it, it's about the world we're in where a few companies have control over who gets to make money and which artists get to continue working. Stores can stock whatever they want, but if you don't understand the broader picture you shouldn't speak.

See the Chaos Jeopardy Chris DIDN'T WANT YOU TO SEE (now with 100% more CENSORSHIP, THANKS OBAMA!)! In all seriousness, this chaos jeopardy was awesome and I hope y'all enjoy it, whether it's the first time or if you saw it during the extralife stream! youtu.be/VGfYH_0Z3sU

The lyric video for "Room for a Fantasy", my winning entry for #MIKUEXPO2026 's song contest, is out now! youtu.be/fPVGGOUs_f4?... Thanks once again to CFM for selecting it for the setlist!

Existing disability services are deeply underfunded, aggressively audited, means-tested constantly, and can be labyrinthine to even access or maintain without assistance. As someone who spent two decades as a cog in that system, concerns about fraud are overblown compared to the real existing need.

hoooooo boy there's gonna be some laaawwwwsuuuuuits

i'm having thoughts. about putting hxvoc in outfits

got my twitch recap for this year, that is a lot of Ace Attorney (and Great God Grove! yay!)
