doing well

the biggest motivation boost

Guys and girls aren't so different, all you need is the right outfit and a smile :)

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

This is now a Rover appreciation account until I get over this #fanart

Open AI loses copyright case in Germany. Judge Elke Schwager summarized the case saying that if you want to build something and need components, "then you purchase them and do not use the property of others."

HOLY SHIT. They found the genes for fibromyalgia - and it's *not* autoimmune, it's the central nervous system. It's very cool to see some progress made on the thing that's ruined my life since late teenage years!

sleeping on you/me again but a small kitteh decided to rest too

I wanted to try doing a off-brand style, and I happen to notice my Gwenpool comics on the shelf. So, let's try Gurihiru style. Results are not bad, but man do I hate trying to ink such thin lines. I like my lines chunky and backgrounds splatty. #CherubArt

I’ve seen a few folks go for the “if you simply must watch that new Harry Potter show just pirate it” and sorry. No. Just no. Just don’t watch it. At all. Ever. Break free of it. It’s time. You’ll be ok. I promise. I know it mattered to you as a kid. Find new things, it’s healthier. Just move on.

I wanted to try drawing with a different brush so I drew Rover. #fanart

The thing is like if we want to fight back against prudery and sex negativity we also have to stop referring to stuff as 'gooner art' and accept that nsfw shit that reads as 'for the male gaze' has as much a right to exist as your favourite yaoi

Gun bird, art comm

God do I hate when I get busy with irl stuff, so I take a break from art so I can deal with it and by the time I'm done I've completely lost all momentum that was keeping me motivated to draw and now I'm struggling to draw anything cuz I need to build that momentum from scratch again.

I got laid off, I utilized SNAP, and I was able to remain in my chosen field of profession. The program is incredibly effective in mitigating the effects of unemployment, and that’s precisely why they want to gut it.

Ready girls?

spooky season is over back to the very pretty art from @vinqou.bsky.social (cw: SH)

Remember, artists: when people say, “I’d buy a print of this,” they don’t mean it. That sentence itself is just a weird compliment that rarely converts to an actual print sale. It’s like if someone ate a very good hot dog and then said, “I could eat 10,000 of these right now.”

BREAKING: After months of stonewalling by Starbucks, unionized baristas just voted 92% to authorize a ULP strike unless Starbucks finalizes fair contracts & stops union busting. If forced, our baristas will strike in dozens of cities on November 13 – the company's busiest sales day of the year.

We are not complaining because we are afraid of it, we are complaining because it looks like dogshit and it's everywhere! This is as polite as I can be about AI 😭

It's cool how we keep proving over and over and over again that there's a significant market for narrative-heavy, character-driven, single-player experiences in video games and publishers just categorically refuse to believe us

Praise Banan! #superanimalroyale

Last night I went to the Puca Festival in Trim, Ireland. It's all fun and games until someone unleashes a giant demonic hare.

I got the autism superpower that lets me perfectly diagnose what kind of tail any character would have with pinpoint accuracy. It’s fundamentally useless and makes me more annoying as a person

what a month huh? (ft. one of best frens)

I draw you into a shrimpy fetal creature endearingly

It's a good sign of friendship when the entire friend group has a yearly event where we can't be mean to the one friend we're always mean to for the whole month or else we have to pay them money.

Cats are liquid Especially on Halloween 🎃🐈‍⬛🎃

Threads on Bluesky should feel more like conversations you’d have IRL. We’re testing new systems to improve reply quality. See what’s coming: bsky.social/about/blog/1...

playing factorio and automation games, and recent spreadsheet hells i'm starting to realize and see irl the importance of (actual, non-internet slang definition) knowing ratios for efficiency

Hurry up and fix them already...

A source familiar w/ internal workings at MasterCard notes the company does not plan to recruit additional call center workers for the Christmas season, as MasterCard does not expect higher call volume than usual. A resurgence of calls re censorship during the busy season would be huge strategically
