If the actor with British accent is evil then you’re watching Sci fi. If the actor with a British accent is good then it’s Fantasy. If the actor with a British accent knocks something over then it’s a Rom com.

I guess young people either forgot or don’t actually know what the word “indie” is short for? An independent company means operating separately from larger corporations, not “providing content for free always”. Adult artists need money to live and create more art, imagine that

We’re so used to calling the various tech oligarchs and Trump pigs Bond villains but Eric Adams is unique in that he is the only irl Venture Bros villain.

Someone with the handle @velocity69.bsky.social is sharing a video with the caption: "The highest quality video of the moon was just released… so beautiful * Artemis II" It's gone viral, but it's not from Artemis II. If you've shared it, you might want to un-share.

I want to be an artist, but I don't want to learn how. I want to be a filmmaker, but I don't want to learn how. I want to be a musician, but I don't want to learn how. I want to be a writer, but I don't want to learn how. AI, for those who can't, don't, and won't.

Yes, the world is on fire, but there are still reason to find joy. I’ve experienced this wholesomeness a few times with meeting online buddies. 🥰 Connection is literally the key to happiness, more so than money. You don’t need a ton of friends, just a few good ones. #friendship #wholesome

That halftime show is what people mean when they say "joy is an act of resistance."

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

This bobtail squid burrowing into the sand is already adorable, but please watch till the very end! It sticks out its little arms and earnestly sprinkles sand over itself 🦑𓂃◌𓈒𓐍

Discord wants to know how you feel about AI. Go tell them: discord.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

@robsteinone.bsky.social you should watch this!

If you’re wondering what a “least weasel” is, they absolutely live up to the name. This is the least amount of animal you can have that can still meet the bar for “is weasel”

It’s that point in time before a big convention that I am 100% overthinking everything.

Unless one has the means that allow for certain possibilities, very often, the urgency of making a living robs the artist of the time required to make masterworks.

I already said I’m voting for him

This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

I’m quoted in today’s issue of Forbes.

The fact that everyone knows exactly what this song is about is wild. www.instagram.com/reel/DNoxUTx...

Finally got around to framing this lovely piece by @dianateeterart.bsky.social, from NY Comic Con a couple-few years ago. How sweet are these two NYC icons? I fell in love with this as soon as I saw it #art

If you want a weird but true fact to talk about: Dexter Holland, lead singer of The Offspring, was instrumental in this. His doctorial thesis in molecular biology was sequencing mRNA in HIV. The paper was also heavily cited in creating the COVID-19 vaccine.

To nobody's surprise, beating yourself up does not, in fact, cure burnout. Doesn't stop me from doing a surprised Pikachu face when I catch myself doing it tho

Block anyone who implies it’s crass to try to sell art bc of “Everything Going On.” Motherfuckers there is going to be a LOT going on FOREVER, and artists sell art AS THEIR JOB. Do you go to fuckin McDonalds and scream at the staff “HOW COULD YOU BE MAKING FRENCH FRIES AT A TIME LIKE THIS??” Grow up

There’s 10 days left to preorder/pledge for a little green bug plushie! And, we’re 80% funded! 🌿 www.kickstarter.com/projects/fos... Reshares are immensely appreciated so we can get this guy funded! We’re so close 💕💕

Was visited by baby aliens at the banding station today 👽👽👽 (American Woodcock)

Hello artist. Look at me. Hold my hands. I want you to succeed so badly. I am manifesting this for you.

Even though the Golden Ratio is mathematical beauty, doesn't mean your back needs to be shaped as such. Straighten up!

I know the law

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Someone once said NextDoor is the social network for dogs if they could type. It’s always “what’s that noise?” and “who’s that stranger?” which is exactly what I imagine my dogs would text other neighborhood dogs.

An astronomy professor colleague of mine once relayed trying to explain to his students why it was important that they actually write their class reports themselves. “The point is not to teach ME about neutron stars,” he said.

I haven’t been posting much here lately. Honestly got very disappointed in this platform after being spam followed by 1,500+ bots after a vaguely political post went viral.

Shop update coming tomorrow at 2:00! I’ll post pictures soon.

New Yorkers, please call your state rep, state senator, and Kathy Hochul and tell them NO MASK BANS. This garbage proposal would kill people. We're on the verge of a measles epidemic and this terrible governor is pushing this? NO. Find your reps here: reps.fyi gothamist.com/news/gov-hoc...

Artists running their own business: I'm exhausted, I'm so close to snapping. I work 80 hour+ weeks to keep this business afloat, I do everything myself, I haven't gotten to draw or get 8 hours of sleep in weeks... Someone: ah, yes. The artists aren't sharing info because of the elitism.

What if the strongest among us elevated others instead of surpassing them? What could our world look like? Using my animals to paint out some big feelings and difficult thoughts.
