Happy birthday to Bram Stoker's novel "Dracula", published on this day in 1897 🦇 #WorldDraculaDay

RIP Sonny Rollins, a great jazz talent and the last surviving musician in one of the best photos of men in suits during the 20th century

Lying is bad unless you do it via AI. False advertising is bad unless you do it via AI. Plagiarism is bad unless you do it via AI. Losing billions of dollars for no good reason is bad unless you do it via AI. Robbing cities of water is bad unless you do it via AI. You’re just embracing the future.

That's 25 Concord-scale budgets. Fifty, really, since it's half the time. Fourteen GTA6s (again, less than half the time). Fourteen *hundred* Expedition 33s.

You've heard of sylph shoes... now get ready for sylph SOCKS #wha #witchhatatelier #Δ帽子

Genuinely, this concern about AI is one of the reasons why I think having friction in video games is good and why it's increasingly important to have games that simply exist instead of catering to our expectations. Reposting this message from Kojima about "pre-digested" art:

I do not believe there is a way to be vocally anti AI and still support/play/promote this company’s titles.

Hey artists! Are you prepared for an unexpected drive failure? Do you practice good data hygiene?

accidentally ordered tokusatsu instead of tonkatsu at this restaurant and now this guy won't stop doing stunts. The waiter can't even take him back because whenever he tries the guy strikes a pose and a bunch of explosions go off behind him

Qifrey and Olruggio would easily survive Ikea without fighting but they’d have other problems later after jointly blowing Olly’s paycheck on throw pillows and lingonberry jam

they’d be like “this lamp shaped like a pink cat reminds me of tetia” and then it would be unfair not to get something for the other girls, etc etc etc, might as well throw two pounds of milk chocolate in the cart at checkout

When I was a kid, I would brush off compliments and demean my art until my art teacher took me aside and told me to never do that shit again. Always take the compliment. If they were insincere, that shits on them. Do not make yourself small for others. It's insane how much of that changed my life.

This. God, this. It is such a manufactured panic and it started the moment they lost the fight over gay marriage. Support trans rights because it’s the right thing to do and also because this is all just a fascist push

not to call anyone out specifically: many cises responding they didn't know and imo that speaks to how most ppl have done no work interrogating the transphobia they've spent their lives absorbing. would you say that i am a whitewoman or a jewishwoman? i bet you wouldn't, even by accident!

Voiceover has the ability to be accessible and we are not there yet. We need able bodied peers to stand with us, to be loud with us, to shout with us, and to care about us. I truly believe this industry CAN be accessible, but there’s a lot of work to be done.

sighs brings out the megaphone once again TRANS LIVES ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN CIS FEELINGS

Looney Tunes couldn't have pulled off a better Vaudeville Hook joke.

terrible. 20 years ago, the internet was full of hobbyist blogs and forums. over time, these have been replaced by paywalled substacks and private discord channels, each a walled garden. google's decision to prioritize AI just makes it less likely people will create free, public info

If you figure out what the thing that makes you happiest is, you will make it with such unparalleled enthusiasm that it will be impossible for people not to notice in a way that will be so much more memorable than treating yourself like a branded product before you figure out who you are.

IT looks like this is resurfacing again under a new face. If someone invites you to watch something using the "Lovoo client", block them immediately. The lovoo client is also another trojan that will hack and fuck your computer for good, stealing your discord and other accounts.

‘The Powerpuff Girls’ creator Craig McCracken has posted a touching tribute to Tom Kane along with an illustration of Professor Utonium and Mr. Harriman: “I grew up without a dad, so it was important to me that the girls had the best one I could give them and that was Tom.”

the only target audience you should keep in mind when making art is the worms in your own brain tbh

FYI, Neil Gaiman appears to be lurking around Bsky again All are encouraged to block: bsky.app/profile/neil...

For the record, this proposal specifically targets gender identity. You have until May 22nd to submit a comment

HI!! IF YOU'RE CANADIAN, PLEASE WRITE A LETTER TO YOUR MP!!! IF YOU AREN'T CANADIAN, SHARE THIS AROUND INSTEAD!!

"people should utilize filters for explicit art" and "its not my responsibility to make sure you are sneaky about browsing the web at work" are statements that can coexist btw. the way ive seen some people rip into artists blaming them for getting caught for looking at porn in the office is wild.

Hey make your voices heard. Tell the FCC that Queer folks are people not some thing that needs a fucking warning label. Don't let them demonize us. Make a difference.

my ffxiv friend’s dad was detained by ICE; if anyone can help donate or share for him and his family to afford legal fees and support themselves, that’d be super appreciated: www.gofundme.com/f/help-free-...

I feel like Bsky needs to hear this (Og post 👇🏻)

Wanted to do another of Monet's pieces ^^ I really love the colors and lighting of this one :D #WitchHatAtelier

best mom ever (featuring @isilaithion.bsky.social's Isilaith)

Anyways, I would love to see the #NoKings and Anti-Fascism crowd host protests centering Voting Rights and focus on how to support Black legislators and voters in red racist states please and thank you. Because it's only going to get worse for all of us but especially them at ground 0 of it all.

And since it's #caturday, one of my favorite artists-with-animals photos: Lois Mailou Jones in her Paris studio in 1938 with the most adorable studio assistant ever

The reason why the sketchy drawing is better than AI reference are the economical choices made. The person only drew what was most important and nothing else which gives clear direction! Please do more of this!

The 2026 Calarts Producers' Show Opening is a lovely tribute to art & animation (directed by Sofia Kondrasheva & Veda Lee). Every year, Calarts school has a showcase where they select a handful of student films to be screened in a Hollywood theater. >> www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hsmu...
