Since I've had to take Saturn to the vet and give him medicine, he's been very distrustful of me, running away when he sees me, etc. But he will always, ALWAYS come out for a McDonald's hamburger. So the solution is simple. I just need to open a McD's in my house.

Oops, I forgot to post this one the other day. This is another Fell from the Raksura books. This is the bruiser--a major kethel.

I wanted to post some of my artwork related to @marthawells.com's Raksura books while I'm at it. First up, this cute paper-cut style desktop of one of the Fell. Well, kinda. I always pictured the minor dakti subspecies as Scorpan from My Little Pony. XD 1/4

I think some journalists believe that giving equal weight to bad faith actors and people acting in good faith is being impartial. Ie., it’s irresponsible for NYT, WSJ, etc. to try and say there’s “both sides” to gender affirming care without making it clear it has worked for over 90% of trans ppl.

Some worldbuilding that didn't make it into the Bestiary trilogy! The kobla (center) went extinct several hundred years ago. They were one of the most scientifically advanced species Erit has ever known. They meddled with their own genome and made their species unviable. 1/

I don't understand why food is ever thrown away. This is so weird. Supermarkets are "damaging out" unsold food all the time. People should be allowed to come in and take it. What good does it do to throw it out?

A beautiful 1x shot of a Mourning Cloak butterfly I got with my cellphone on the way home. It was so tired it let me get within about a foot of it. Then it was just a waiting game 'til it opened its wings. Poor thing is a little beat up!

Debating doing another heraldry piece, but with a beheaded dragon and the scroll saying 'reclaim wealth' Yes im angry at capitalism today lol

I just wanna let y'all know, you've been sleeping on @marthawells.com's Raksura books. It is the most epic fantasy I have ever read. I love it. It's unique and beautiful and just... whole. I've been a fan for many years. PLEASE check it out. You won't be sorry! Start with The Cloud Roads.

"the menswear guy isn't fair and balanced." do you even hear yourself? "fork lady is eroding public confidence." "ladder baby is undermining the credibility of the field." "lemon raccoon is acting without transparency or accountability." that's what you sound like.

Although it was obvious this was always the intent (hence why I don't have any "smart" devices in my home) this should still be illegal.

The people who peddle AI are the least likely to know how it actually works. You need BILLIONS of examples to draw from. If it doesn't exist, AI can't make it. It's not magic, it doesn't "think," and it relies on stolen data. It's a glorified algorithm.

Let's please remember that Kimmel wasn't the only person fired for giving an opinion. The kneejerk reaction from corporations to comply in advance cost a lot of people their livelihoods. All for doing their jobs.

This is AMAZING. Holy shit.

still haven't been raptured. anyone else still here? how long do we have to wait?

oh ya y'all if I get raptured you can have my stereo.

Things Rio is NOT afraid of: 1. Stealing cereal from giant bowl. 2. The cats which could eat her. 3. Trying to put her head in my mouth. 4. A game called "Squeeze the Bird" she invented. Things Rio is TERRIFIED of: 1. corn

Pesky snails! 💜💜💜

The thing about the rapture is that no person--not a single one--will be able to predict the date or the time it will happen. That's literally in the bible. So we can safely say that it's definitely not happening on Tuesday.

Preparing for ANOTHER Mesozoic Art II event right now... the book is out THIS WEEK, buy it now from @chiffchat.bsky.social www.bloomsbury.com/uk/mesozoic-...

Some people think ChatGPT has a place writing things like news briefs, stuff written to a specific style and tone and, y'know, kinda boring. So Science did a study. ChatGPT failed. Why? It got stuff wrong. "Also, extensive editing for hyperbole was needed." www.science.org/content/blog...

Thank you so much for this amazing review. This is so kind. I'm glad you enjoyed Shadecursed!

I will look into this! What a cool zine. May you get a million submissions, all of them wonderful. <3

hey, i just want you all to know how tired i am. like, i'm seriously tired. exhausted. i can't really convey in words how absolutely bone-fatigued i've become. I lack the words to describe how dead-on-my-feet I am. Neither the words nor the phrases yet exist. In short, this is the stupidest th

heloo, i am ""aura"" and the Apparition Outside The Water gave (to me) the stikkfuud.

me not knowing how to market like: HEY DO YOU like BOOK? do u liek WORD??????? MULTIPLE WORD. CONTAINED!!! IN SEVERAL PAGES. STAMPLED TOGETHER INTO... a THING. You read it? YOU READ IT. HOLD it IN the hand TODAY mybook.to/XYE7

SHE'S GOT STYLE SHE'S GOT GRACE, SHE'S GOT TACOS IN HER FACE! SHE'S A LADY.

I picked two ears of corn today! The yellow one might not have been ready. oops. I was too excited!

We all have our little pet peeves in writing, but there's nothing that takes me out of an original fantasy like the word "crusade."

I have noticed people responding to bad faith arguments on here after what happened last Wednesday. Remember, they are trying to farm engagement. If someone's making a dumb-fuck argument, literally just block them. Get them off bluesky. Don't let this be their foot in the door.

So my dear Saturn kitty is diabetic. I took him in because he was acting off (hiding a lot, losing weight) and his sugar was waaaay up. We're trying a relatively new medication called Bexacat, which is so recently approved that only one other cat in the clinic I go to is on it. 1/

There simply is no better portrayal of fairies than in Gunnerkrigg Court. That is the uncanny weirdness the fae should bring. Like, y'all can have your buff megabutterflies. The fairies in Gunnerkrigg Court are so delightfully weird it hurts sometimes. Thank you, Tom Siddell.

This is a real question. I'm not being facetious here. With people like AOC and Mamdani posting that violence isn't the answer, I legitimately want to know: What is the answer then? If we want to avoid violence, then what do we do? Peaceful tactics have not worked. 1/

Visa and mastercard are now apparently saying fantasy (cat ears, faeries, etc) are illegal in the united states. WHAT? XD

I'm facing my largest hurdle ever at work because I got plants that have snails on them for the work tank, and I was like "look at all the baby snails!" and my co-worker was like "whoa there's gonna be SO MANY SNAILS" and I was like "well I'll probably take some out" ... 1/

Uncanny Magazine closes to short story submissions TODAY! When September 8 is finished everywhere on the planet, the submission portal will be closed!

I have a ton of illustrations for my novel. She didn't invent shit. I'm tired of grifters getting attention like this. She needs to be forgotten.

One of the things I like most about season 2 of Wednesday is Agnes, and how they gave her an OP power and used it in OP ways. They didn't shy away from using it or make up excuses for not using it. They went for it without shame. Her obsession... 1/2

Yeah this is borderline enraging. They're going to try to extend this to artwork too, I bet. And I have posted hundreds of my works online. I can't register all of those. This is fucking ridiculous. All so corporations can make more money.

This is an AMAZING thread. Please read if you are anti-AI. This really hits the nail on the head.

Zyearth was built to highlight neurodivergency. Matt's extreme sense of justice, Trecheon's self loathing, Leah's masking, Neil's PTSD, Izzy's anxiety, etc. It comes in many colors, but never devalues the person. I want to show how these shape us. #FreeBook #Neurodivergent
