normalize name changes for anyone tbh. even if you're not trans, you should be able to just choose a name you feel good about and not have it be a big deal

I had the honor of making this painting for Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein.

If you can get suspended for quoting Johnny Cash songs, I do not even want to imagine what they'd do to me for quoting GWAR.

I love this.

WELCOME TO WEDNESDAY

I propose an international law that once you become personally responsible for the murder of 1,000 people, be it via direct violence or policy, you are declared a dragon and adventurers can form parties to quest against you.

I've known Merc a long time (like, before I was published a long time), and therefore have known Siah online over the years. Please help if you can.

A little over 900 words today. I didn't get to writing yesterday so I wanted to make up for it today. Maybe I can pull this off again tomorrow too.

My meme contribution for the weekend.

love bites #art #horror

Was lucky enough to get to help design characters for recent D&D Liveplay Forgotten Realms: Tears of Selune This is @ginnydi.com's character, an Orc Cleric named Iksa. #dnd

November seems to be starting off a little better. Just shy of 900 words yesterday and just shy of 500 today. I'll fuckin take it. Maybe I can finish this draft this month if I really fuckin push.

My October plans only partially worked out. But I liked it enough I'm just gonna keep going with it. Now if I could just stop waking up in the middle of the night with a screaming brain...

HOLY SHIT! Thank you so much! 😭😭😭

I survived whatever stomach bug steamrolled me last week and am finally on the mend. I still don't really miss social media, except my dear sweet Tumblr, and seeing my friends actually living their lives instead of the forever spew of The Bullshits that is daily news.

The longer I go without using this app, the more I'm inclined to just delete it and move entirely to my website. Tumblr is the only social media site I still enjoy.

SHELVE YOUR FALCHION, TODAY YOU WILL BATTLE ENNUI. AND YOU WILL WIN.

Okay, I guess I should get to installing Cold Turkey or Freedom and shut my shit down. Coincidentally, there's a kink thing called Locktober. 😂 I will be pretty scarce. Try not to burn the place down while I'm gone. And remember to tag me with spooky/orc/horny art.

RIP Renato Casaro, an Italian artist known for his film posters. He passed away yesterday at the age of 89.

They found 38 unmarked graves of Indigenous children at Immaculate Conception Mission in South Dakota and it didn't make the news outside of Indian Country.

Welp I was in a bike accident and my body is messed up. My helmet saved my life. I have a mild concussion, rotator cuff injury and very gnarly & painful bruising on my hip. I can't work for a few weeks, so if you've ever thought about sending me $ or joining my Patreon, now is a really good time 🙏

Hi! Did you know that you aren’t pronouncing axolotl correctly? Suppression of indigenous languages by the Spanish is one of the Four Wounds of Colonization. This is a small subversion of colonial power you can use! Axolotl is a Nahuatl word, and it sounds like this:

lets go ghouls

It's a paradox: Orctober/Spooky Time is soon and I will be taking a massive tech break. Please tag me in any great art you see. Spooky stuff, orcs, monsters, even if it's horny. Maybe even especially if it's horny.

Age yourself with a film you saw in a cinema as a kid

I have decided I'm going to try to make October, the month I am at my most powerful, my tech break self-renewal month. I have found two lockout programs to try on my PC. Lock Me Out has been working great for mobile. I just need to set up useage limits now instead of a bedtime lock.

Can confirm.

Ironically, as much as I want people to BUY MY THING(S), the moments that make me do the meme are seeing my friends/peers talk about having 2000-4000 word days on the regular. Sometimes I think that would be about as life-changing as more BUYS.

This is so fucking cool.

Meg, I have like so many people that would love this, myself included.

I am giving some serious consideration to taking a fairly massive technology break. No more tiktok. No more social media. Limit my time on my desktop. Basically use it for work and like two hours of gaming/viewing time. Try to focus on being outside more and exercise.

Because you've fully embraced this aspect of your name change, I need you to write a few boy detective stories now. It's a moral imperative.

Just that time I flippantly responded to an Atlantic headline about buquinis and then somehow went viral and had so many people in mentions telling me to grow up and get a job because I was (at the time) running a dental gofundme. Also SO MANY racists.

I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

amazing. they're so great

I think my nervous system is overloaded again because I'm not walking, I'm not using my dumbbells, and I'm not writing. And I just...can't fucking care. I hate it.

THE GUNSLINGER ON THE BEACH (1982) Acrylic on Board - 28" x 18" The winter months of 1980-81 were tough. My wife and I became parents with the arrival of our daughter in November, and I needn't tell anyone who has children what that means in terms of lifestyle changes...like lack of sleep. 1/4

"my kids are defective!" is the battlecry of nearly every reactionary movement

Platform holders want you to call what you make and what you enjoy as content for you consume or binge and nothing more. They want you to devalue the work you make and the work of others you enjoy. Like Anna says give your art more respect and respect your peers to not devalue their work as well.

Just in case some people missed the memo: DO NOT USE ULINE. EVER. IDGAF if you think they "have the best prices" or "have the best tape". Buying from them because of one of those reasons just tells me your morals have a price tag. Throw your packaging sources in the comments.

Just going to have this as a daily affirmation stuck on my mirror.

$240 left to find this. Thank you again folks.

Orrig did the shirt meme.
