I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

It keep growing nope nope nope 😭

Que por cierto, para toda la gente nueva que no me seguía en Twitter y tal. Soy Ana, artista 3D y arquitecta. Aparte de hacer cositas con impresión 3D y tal, también me dedico a hacer 3D para renders de Arquitectura y apps de VR+AR (no videojuegos). Estos son algunos de mis trabajos personales 😊

I repeat, ✨Physics!✨

"Pat, why do you carry that ridiculous 600mm lens on long hikes?" Buddy, I can see mountains reflected in the eyes of a trailside pika.

In Defiance of Death

$100K annually for each worker on a H-1B visa? That’s gonna hit US Tech companies hard.

Happy to share my new post! 👀 Full post: artstation.com/artwork/bg482G #zbrush #UnrealEngine #UnrealEngine5

There is a digital exhibit that is excellent, but nothing really beats seeing these remarkable books in person. dpul.princeton.edu/global-book-...

D and it’s not even CLOSE

I tend to generally drink Chinese teas straight from my gaiwan, so I have a tendency to only use my kyusu as a water vessel. But when drinking sencha, it’s really nice to see the vibrant green tea leaves in the pot. (also those leaves are nightmarish to try and filter out with the gaiwan lid)

The Pokéball practice targets I drew for my nephews in 2021

Lmao, pretty obvious but I like it nonetheless Minute Cryptic - 17 September, 2025 "Every prime cut from homebred cattle?" (4) 🟣🟣🟣🟣🟣🟣🟣 I scored: 2 under par www.minutecryptic.com?utm_source=s...

me: making art is difficult. criticism is harsh and cruel. doctor: treatment is simple, stay away from your worst critics. go spend time by yourself me, bursting into tears: but doctor,

New video! Old news, new package: AI, Procedural Generation, UGC, in-game trading, Blockchain, and the Metaverse Why are game developers so adverse to these technologies? The best way to find out is by asking folks who have lived through the history of game development. youtu.be/CeZ_rcDQg6Q

“you can’t do anything to a listed building, ever!” okay, counterpoint, you can hoist a 700 year old church tower up 16metres in the air to build a new subterranean basement for an office block

One of these days I’m gonna have to write a thread on the importance, at least for shallow people like me, of aesthetically pleasing but utterly visible placeholder. Derek’s right, it should stand out as separate/wip, but I don’t wanna stare at ugly stuff all day.

Went up to Cregennan in Eryri, North Wales, yesterday. Here’s a drawing. Pen and watercolour.

Hey guys, it’s that time again. I am actively looking for new fulltime, contract, or freelance opportunities as a Hardsurface Artist or 3D Generalist in games or games-adjacent roles! Also- Just about finished up a new project- here’s a sneak peek at the textures!

HAPPY BORDERLANDS 4 DAY ✨ I did a little bit of writing on the game, and it was so fun and i'm so happy i got to share space with other really great writers. *~you can also hire me full time to write because i got laid off~* okay byee have fun!!

Some practice with Uncial. A teensy bit of Thai thrown in as well. Uncial doesn’t have lowercase letters, but you can sorta see where they come from. Like how, even though the E’s are written like a C with a line, they almost merge into looking like a lowercase e when I’m sloppy.

Prominent folks: Millions stay on Twitter because that's where they hear from you. That includes reporters. YOU are giving Twitter viability and credibility. If YOU leave, the people who want to hear from you will go where you are. YOU are making the choice to keep others on Twitter.

ok time to reset the timeline 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 BIG BOAT STUCK 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯

Just noticed I’m just 29 followers away from hitting the big 9k and iv never had that many on any site so can we share this just to see if we can get that number nice and round for the fun of it? Cheers and thanks in general.

I use Huntington sometimes in class to highlight “when famous people are allowed to talk completely out of their ass”. Mongolia + Thailand China + Vietnam (For extra points his map of “the free world” is also a hoot, as most of the countries in there are dictatorships).

I keep having dreams about meeting up with family in Japanese restaurants. Which I guess really is a symptom of me missing my family is Thailand and a testament to how difficult it is to get good Japanese food in the US. Why is it so hard to find a restaurant that serves grilled saba/mackerel?

I couldn't ignore this perfectly placed puddle at Amersham London Underground station

Exactly what Des said but also yessss bookmarkssssss

Closing up to do other task as I let some glue dry and it suddenly all kicked off

"Bluesky is boring." Social media *should* be boring. Being algorithm and dopamine poisoned is bad, actually. When your feed dries up for the day, that's your cue to go do something else until new stuff shows up later.

Work in progress

Archival footage like this of a place that no longer exists is the kind of ref you should just let wash over you and watch it when it suddenly appears in your recommendation like this just did for me. A Space is not just how it looks but its how its used and the people that do so and their history.

This is so true. It's having all this info in the back of your mind to expand your visual repertoire and inspire you. Perhaps you'll come back to use these images as direct reference. Perhaps not. Your art and your day in general can still be richer for having seen it.

Very interesting article on the damage a rogue localizer can do to a game as Silksong's Chinese release sits at 52% positive - the translator not only shared a bunch of info pre-release, breaking NDA, the localization itself was highschool-flowery. A wild read. www.loekalization.com/blog/blog/20...

I’m probably gonna fall down a calligraphy rabbit hole again soon. Found an account doing uncial script and more, but in Thai, and now I wanna give that a shot.

Hey y'all- I was impacted by the layoffs at Firaxis this morning. If you or anyone you know needs a mid to senior level materials artist that has experience in building material libraries, lighting, 2D art, and props I'm your girl!https://www.artstation.com/daniellazeman

I was a Firaxis narrative designer/writer and lost my job today. Any help sharing leads on new opportunities would be great! Over 3.5 years, I contributed to Civilization VII and Marvel’s Midnight Suns, helping turn maps, mechanics, and chaos into memorable stories. See my work benreeves.carrd.co

I got laid off from Firaxis today. I helped ship Marvel's Midnight Suns DLC and Civilization VII, and would love to talk to you about mid level Producer roles.

Finally finished some new art this year! Its an appreciation piece of the Montreal Metro, which combines my two favorite things, Public Transit and Brutalism. More here www.artstation.com/artwork/BkGmW4 Based on work by the amazing laurianemichaud.com

Finally got Yamatai out on the Steam Workshop! Hours in the library later, I think I've come up with a fun and interesting depiction. #civ7 #civilization #modding steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/...

MFW I only just realised the new season of Overwatch is today. I thought it was next month for some reason.

I feel like the unspoken fourth line of this one is that it's impossible to please everyone and if your only goal is to hammer down every feedback mole that pops up you will end often with everyone unhappy. Have your audience and creative goals in mind. Not everything NEEDS fixing

Okay, a question! Let's say I have an upcoming birthday that I may be able to leverage to go on a trip somewhere with lots of animatronic/life-size dinosaurs. Sadly, the Dino Safari exhibit in Las Vegas appears to be defunct, but where else is good?
