Reworked of one of my most personal illustrations for a very special project. Gonna be a little while before I can share the full piece, but I wanted to share a little teaser for the beginning of pride month. 🏳️‍⚧️ 🏳️‍🌈

Flightless Lament II - Timelapse

Flightless Lament II

The Horror - Cover art for the HORROR NOT HATE anthology.

I’ve literally never posted any explicitly sexual material. Or nudity. I’m the equivalent of an old Sears catalog. Your auto mod is not accurate enough to decide to hide whole accounts. Human mods don’t exist to appeal to. This is a shadow ban. You are enacting a shadow ban. @bsky.app

The Horror - Timelapse. About 3Ohrs hrs in 1min. Ink on 11x17 bristol. Cover art for the HORROR NOT HATE anthology.

Unreal 💚

Bluesky folks will say something like "just tag your NSFW stuff, it's not hard ^_^" and then the increasingly stringent moderation policies force your posts (and now your entire account) into ever-shrinking gated boxes to choke you out in favour of their preferred clientele: liberal reply guys

The Horror - Cover art for the Horror Not Hate comic anthology.

It’s very existentially fun to be living in the part of Virginia that has cut down all of its trees for back to back data centers I tell you what

RUINER - Timelapse. About 35hrs hrs in 1min. Ink on 11x17 bristol, freehand.

What's TRASHMAN listening to?

Hahahah GODDAMNIT. Kojima and Nicolas Winding Refn too.. kotaku.com/hideo-kojima...

Jorge R. Gutierrez going all in on AI for animation development fucking sucks. www.cartoonbrew.com/artificial-i...

They really just need an editor.

It rules because the futanari accounts are straight up dwarfing response from flesh and blood trans women. they do sometimes collab with trans women but it's like, everyone I used to see make a decent paycheck after the hosts cut are doing gofundmes regularly now.

Terrible era to be an artist with a moderate interest in technology.

My seething hatred for AI has been reinvigorated after a few days of WordPress site admin.

Sadly I can't for the life of me find a functional slider plugin for my site so for now the little experimental slideshow/animations I've been working on are going to be an instagram-only thing. Go check out the latest one, THE GAME. instagram.com/p/DYn1MMNFHoO

Finding a usable plugin for a specific thing in WordPress is a special kind of hell.

That time I got to design a Cenobite for a Hellraiser comics anthology.
