Marjane Satrapi 1969-2026

Doing great sometimes

I keep thinking about reading Persepolis and Maus as a teenager and how impactful they were, how long they have stayed with me and how relevant they continue to be.

I was told it was a crime I haven’t drawn maid Jax yet. It’s always morally correct to bully the rabbit. #tadc #tadcjax #theamazingdigitalcircus #maidjax #fanart

Seconded! Bookshop-dot-org is a consortium of indie bookstores. The service is fast and reliable. No, you won't find the ridiculous price cuts below cost, because it isn't trying to drive all competition out of biz like Amazon. Boycott Bezos. Boycott Amazon. Boycott tech oligarchs.

New place very soon! I miss all my art supplies so much. Need to sort through what made it to storage and what's too smoky and needs to be cleaned or tossed out. Until then- Borrowed ballpoint pen sketches. #artistsonbsky #sketchbook #fantasyart

I could quote @heykellyjensen.bsky.social all day: “Public libraries belong to everyone, not just to right-wing cultists angry that gay people exist.”

You only have a short time to comment. They are trying to destroy our forests to enrich a few logging company executives and the politicians they’ve paid off. Leave your comment here: eplanning.blm.gov/Participate-... morethanjustparks.substack.com/p/blm-announ...

The package of censorship and surveillance bills brought up in todays markup has been advanced Continue to contact your representatives and demand this legislation be opposed. Tell your family and friends, explain how these bills are not what they appear, and ask them to join us in opposition!

Indie game devs, when you use the slop machine in your game, it makes it clear to players that you don't give a fuck and just want money. Draw crappy but genuine art instead.

when they commission you something you love to draw #art

every time i see some new attempt to Streamline and Optimize our Lives i think about this kurt vonnegut quote that does rounds. we're dancing animals! not everything needs to be optimized! sometimes a tedious task creates an unlikely opportunity to learn something about yourself! or for joy!!

Old half-transformed swain art. Done before Raum was confirmed- but I figured it out lol. #noxus #artoflegends #leaguefanart #lolfanart #swain #jerichoswain #raum #demon #artistsonbsky

My wife and I have to move urgently due to a housefire in the townhome next to us. My partner and myself are dealing with smoke inhalation but our main concern is covering both the cats stay at the emergency vet. Please take a look or share if you can. gofund.me/5c6a0aa16

Btw these poll results- extremely funny...

Lots of trans people may very well feel justifiably suicidal over these losses and attacks that are attempting to literally eradicate us. Trans Lifeline is a good, non-carceral resource that I would always recommend over 988. +1-877-565-8860 (U.S.) translifeline.org

The Trevor Project will also remain available directly, just not through option 3 on 988. The Trevor Project have their own helpline and webchat that are not shutting down. But they could probably really do with donations and support to make sure it stays that way.

From a dream- Disney doughnuts called "Meanwhiles". A POV youtube like video of a man at a strange Disney park with someone who had a seizure(?) before he got to try them. "All I remember is the taste of the plastic wrapper before I went down." Optional sugar print outs of the Beast and Esmeralda.

Had a dream where I stole shitty cheesecake factory branded remote control cars. Like a bag of these, with tangled up wires, all scuffed. Fabric-y wires were fraying and there were decals on the side of the these blocky clunky plastic "race cars" with the typical sort of cheesecake factory stripes.

Some of the latest round of zoo sketches.

@lanternwretch.bsky.social Made an offer I couldn't refuse. #sonic #eggman #sega #robotnik

Long shot and no guarantee, but doing a little poll on Tumblr, kicking around some Fanart ideas. www.tumblr.com/lichdandy/78...

Karthus stuff from the old blog. #undead #lich #artistsonbsky #monsterart

My husband has taught human reproduction and development to the Cambridge medics for over three decades. When people start banging on about "only two biological sexes" he starts with "which sex: genetic, hormonal, or gonadal"? Biological sex is not binary. www.scientificamerican.com/article/sex-...

Been going through sketchbooks that survived the flood. I'm putting any pages I want to keep in binders and tossing a lot. Its nice to save some stuff from my childhood, middle school, early high school finally put somewhere. Seeing my style morph around has been neat too.

I was once told to not follow many people on social media... but I find that extremely hard to follow on bsky, especially on portfolio days! There are so many incredible artists on the platform! How am I supposed to resist? I simply can't!

A little bird told me it is portfolio day. I'm a watercolorist with a background in traditional illustration. I've been using the online space to experiment with digital textures and mediums. Monsters, creatures and Villains are my focus and joy. #portfolioday

A rough Zenos for experimenting with Procreate and testing screen differences. #ffxiv #ffxivart

Boycott Airbnb! They’re DOGE!

Old art of partially transformed Swain and Sona, in the midst of a story I didn't get to finish. #leagueoflegends #noxus #artoflegends #leagueart
