New video is live! "I Tried Recreating a 19th Century Masterpiece on a Leapfrog Leappad" youtu.be/FZBL1RhMFao

I bought everything to make gingerbread cookies but I don’t have any holiday shaped cookie cutters. I’ll have to do bunnies, Star Wars, or Brewster. 😅

There’s a difficult irony that many people would really rather not have to think about this (ie what started in 2020 that’s clearly still happening)… but willingness to confront it is also the best way to reduce your odds of ending up on this chart + having to think about it all the fucking time.

I think most people are underestimating just how much righteous rage we have (especially older millennials). We’ve trained for this. 😤

Every artist, get more self indulgent NOW! Draw your ships kissing, draw your blorbos, draw that idea you’ve been putting off (you’re good enough to do it!!!), redraw that old art, draw yourself wearing a cool outfit, draw a better world- just draw!!!

If you stopped wearing masks, you can start again anytime! At *least* while you’re traveling! Don’t ruin your holidays with covid or flu.

Here are a couple of the wonderful cats I photographed at the shelter yesterday - only two days left to donate to my fundraiser for them! Let's see if we can get it up to $8,000! givebutter.com/n5l31M

In Canada, the 60 Minutes clip about CECOT that Bari Weiss canned was broadcast. @jasonparis.bsky.social‬ captured it. Enjoy. Bluesky only allows 3 minute videos max. I hope this works. 1/5.

Wishing you warmth, peace, and so much love this holiday season ❤️

My brain lights up like a christmas tree when I learn new animal facts. Learning things is great.

This is such great deal, highly recommend (and not just cause @helveticablanc.bsky.social is a friend, but they are a skilled artist making very cool stuff you won’t see anywhere else!)

Catching up with family has been great these past couple weekends, and we’re all painfully aware at how fast time passes as we age Find family and find time you can share together when and if you can Do something fun online with folks you like, make memories

Put a few more little hardwood vessels I got finished up in the shop. www.galdrecraft.com

Already had dinner, dessert, and watched a movie and it’s only 8pm but it feels so late. 💀 I’m glad the days will be getting longer again.

Orders from my shop at this point won’t arrive before Christmas, but if you’d like some goodies for yourself and start the new year with some anti-AI merch, here you go!

I feel like I'm going to get a lot of use out of this Pluribus screencap

Been rewatching through all the Star Trek movies in order and man some of these are so bad it’s a wonder they kept letting them make more. (But I’m enjoying myself).

I feel so tired I can hardly move and I haven’t even done anything today 😭

In 2026 we all gotta craft more!! Make things with our hands! Beading, Paperworks, Pottery, soldering, anything goes! Challenge those fine motor skills!!

Self-consciousness about your art feels unpleasant, but it means your tastes are growing. Your personal taste as it guides your work is kind of an essential part of being an artist. Practice builds your skills and your point of view! You want to develop the Artist’s Hand *and* the Eye, so to speak.

trans kids should have access to healthcare. same as cis kids. ANYTHING that their parents and doctors think would have a positive impact. Not complicated.

Finally catching up on holiday orders, so this is a great time to treat yourself to some beadwork! More sales are needed to cover rent this month and every order helps <3 Shop my work → cvkvlv.com December goal progress in comments ↓ Mvto!! (Thank you!) #Beadwork #Mvskoke #IndigenousArt #Art

Drawing a net and an axe that look like frogs and getting paid for it. Ah, the life of an illustrator. (If you want to know what I'm talking about, subscribe to @theyetee.com Stickermoon club)

“Love it or hate it it’s here to stay” is a crazy thing to keep saying about a technology. If people don’t like using something it doesn’t have to stay we’re not talking about bad weather here

Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is. GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart. But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.

Shoutout to anybody else in the midwest developing a headache from these wild temperature shifts 🫠

a.i. is for people with no guts. Cowards, too scared to write an email much less create a work of art.

I’ve had trans friends for many years and my own journey with gender has led me to land somewhere on the nonbinary spectrum. If you want to enforce rigid gender norms on yourself that’s fine, but leave the rest of us (and especially kids) out of it! We all deserve bodily autonomy, every one of us.

Trans kids, trans adults, trans all of you folks I’m so glad you live. I’m so glad you’re here and I hope you know there are so many rooting for you, fighting for you and hoping you get to live the best life you can

whats irresponsible is tying your video game company to a money bubble that trains on unethically obtained data

what I want trans kids, queer kids, and gender nonconforming kids to know: you are loved you are so much more powerful than the ghouls using your healthcare as a political pawn, and you WILL outlive them (they know this, and it is why they're attacking you)

Not sleeping well lately waking up multiple times though the night is really wearing on me. What must it be like to sleep 8 uninterrupted hours. 😭 (no advice please).

I've been chatting with Eslam, who is fighting to support her family trapped in Gaza. She has stopped posting on Bluesky bcuz every time she does her account is deleted and she has to start over, but she is still in desperate need. Please donate or share if you can. chuffed.org/project/1282...

Vaccine rates for flu and covid are way down this fall but that shit is out there kicking asses left and right. Go get your jabs, you can do both at once!

There’s a direct line from ‘just asking questions about women’s sports’ to criminalizing our health care, we warned you it was coming, you said it would be fine and you just had a few more questions.

That’s not who I wanted to win #survivor49 😔 but it was cool to have an all woman finale anyway.

I'll be honest, I ABSOLUTELY get the impulse but I don't think "you suck and must not care if you're not posting about this" is ever going to be an accurate assessment, helpful to those suffering, or an effective way of activating people. youre essentially shaming folks for not being online 24/7

This is a personal attack on me. 😩 www.usatoday.com/story/entert...

Pizza pillow 🍕

Two glasses of iced coffee earlier seemed like a good idea but I am crashing 🫠

Consider buying these books as holiday gifts or to leave in some little free libraries in your neighborhood this winter!

Every now and then someone sees me complaining about my graphic novel schedules and suggests I use AI to work faster and goodness but I do not know where to begin explaining that the problem is not how fast I work and the solution is not convincing publishers that I'm a robot.

Oh to be a little Tardigrade walking across a microscopic slide. 🫧🐻🧪

im thinking about the parental estrangement forums and shit and it feels like such a natural thing to come from a culture that doesn't see children as full human beings with agency, to extend the status of problem child past the age of majority and allow publishing and media to be complicit in abuse

I was asked about my wish list for holiday gifts. All I want is funds to help with transitioning my mother to full time memory care, bc last week she was missing for 4 days & hospitalized. Anything to help her to be safe is appreciated. www.ko-fi.com/thatjayjustice www.venmo.com/ThatJayJustice

We don't need more articles centering the feelings of horrible parents mad their adult children cut them off. 🙄 They are not victims of some injustice, they're simply facing consequences of their actions. Most people actually don't want to cut off family. It *is* heartbreaking. But we are forced to.

EVERYONE GET MORE PASSIONATE AND SELF INDULGENT ABOUT CREATIVITY AND BEING HUMAN NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wasn’t going to wait in line at the post office for seasonal stamps so Keith Haring stamps went on my holiday cards. ❤️
