the secret to wanting to shower is to pretend to be your D&D character while you do it

The International Red Cross / Red Crescent orgs are solid. We've worked alongside them in other countries. Support the Venezuelan Red Cross here (confirmed not on sanction list):

Don't overthink the Trump admin's reasoning here. They don't have a grand scheme. They are willing to upend the international order because they think everyone else will be too scared to fuck with them. And whatever terrorist attacks this inspires against us will just help them electorally.

Absolutely insane, we’re now at war with almost no pretext at all, what the fuck

As any organizer knows, victory can be exhilarating, but it can also be disorganizing. @danielgoulden.bsky.social writes about the debates roiling the New York City left in the wake of Zohran's victory. powermapmag.com/the-entropy-...

Mamdani: For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty

Into the unknown-- Happy New Year!

Thousands chant tax the rich

BREAKING Zohran Mamdani has been sworn-in as the 112th Mayor of New York City.

Megalopolis is quite the death rattle of a career huh

look we're all making a big bet on AI! and if it pays off as big as we hope, well, it's going to make a handful of people super rich and you're going to lose your job but get to watch mickey mouse fuck geralt from the witcher. if it doesn't pay off well then you get to pay for the bailouts

For @devonrubinart.bsky.social a fem silco ✨ #art #myart #arcane

As we enter the New Year remember fear of making bad art is holding you back. Fear of people not liking your work is holding you back. Rejection is holding you back You'll make bad art, you'll have people not like your work, and you'll be rejected. Moving past it is half the job of being a creative

I know things are beginning to ramp down as the holidays come around but I am looking for any part time work in concept art, comics, or illustration ✨ these are some recent original illustration pieces More work and contact info here & here: www.instagram.com/tianaoreglia/ www.tianaoreglia.com

CENSORSHIP ONLY HAPPENS UNDER COMMUNISM. IT HAS NEVER HAPPENED UNDER CAPITALISM. EVERYTHING IS NORMAL. ENJOY CHRISTMAS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

told my landlord he no longer has to apologize for being white and he lowered my rent by 25%. told the grocer it's now the trump kennedy center and he sold me potatoes for $1. told PG&E it's a christian nation now and electricity is free. try it sometime

It’s so sad, more and more places outside just use ai for illustrations. I see so many menus and logos, all ai. It’s disheartening to see as an illustrator :/

who up dicken they fair

Cook here, I'm about to weigh in on a food service industry issue and speak for my fellow cooks! There's no proof I'm actually a cook, and I might just be cooking my own lunch a few times a week but who cares. Anyways, there's nothing wrong with using crushed concrete instead of salt, cooks LOVE it!

it's not the greasons yet but I realized this wasnt posted with my art tag yet #roseart

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things. Here’s a blurb on what I mean:

always advised ppl to not look at (A)rtsta(I)on too much when looking for inspiration, looking at other mediums and other perspectives historic or cultural or individual origin will produce better designs. Anyway what do I know

this is a good reminder that any good art made under capitalism is luck and happenstance. because artists wanted to make it and were able to sneak it in

the goal for CEOs who want this genAI stuff is purely making artists a means to an end. and that end IS the profits they gain off our backs. they don't want *artists*, they want smooth picture rendering machines to make them money.

"look we're not using AI in the final product we're just using it to speed up the conceptual stage" is what a lot of dopes affecting an enlightened middle position keep saying. I truly do not get that one. You hate imagining stuff? You don't like thinking and conceptualizing? Get a grip

I keep talking to people who are very anti AI who admit they're fine with it being used ' to brainstorm/ generate ideas', I have to explain very clearly why that's just a terrible idea as generating assets. People genuinely don't know what concept art is/what concept artists do!

"We're all-in on this thing that isn't really helping that much"

I am reminded of this photo showcasing greater bravery than I could ever imagine having.
