We ride the bus all the time. I ride the bus from Portland to Seattle. I ride the bus around Portland. Public transit is stigmatized by the auto corporations and big oil.

In response to the folks who replied to that post about the rising costs of groceries by saying shit like "just cut out chips and candy," I have the following to say: Go fuck yourself. For a more thorough response, see below.

The world will be better off with this foul thing gone from it.

NSFW artist's truth.

It's a good thing Deltarune's getting a new chapter. My timeline can finally get distracted from posting more TADC final episode spoilers.

Like you understand what I'm saying right Visually, it might look like someone's storyboards and make it look like pencil or whatever stupid shit but AI has zero concept of context or intentionality. It cannot replace storyboarding beyond the superficial

🎯

the true horror of liminality is the realization that you as a person are not the focus of marketing or capitalistic society, you are barely more than a product now. Nobody cares about you or your comfort or health or happiness. You're what corporations trade, now. The whole world is liminal to you

Introduce yourself with four video games (This only scrapes the surface of my video game interests and experience, but I had to pick 4, and this stretches over a wide stretch of time which I'm content with presenting as a broad reflection of myself.)

Obsession is a fucked film. It's a fucked, fucked film. Good, but fucked. I'd rather watch Backrooms ten more times than watch that other film again. That's how disturbing it was.

made a janky little finger-typed graphic about this using my human words and art made by a real person

In light of recent Ai related nonsense in the creative industry, I wanted to present some easy-to-digest facts about Generative Ai

A study of @jookpubstock.bsky.social I have been in an art rut and state of burnout for about... 7 months? I don't really count holidays like Mother's Day or Xmas because there's the social pressure there to force me to create. For my own art it's been nothing but struggle, and I recently (cont.)

First John Blanche, now Marjane Satrapi. We lost 2 great artists in just 1 week... incredibly sad. May they rest in peace

Incidentally, since fascism is ascendant in American culture - not necessarily felt in the hearts of the people but the thing that's boosted in every media mouthpiece and talking head - your only viable counterculture is a lived anticapitalism that supports learning, understanding, and building.

Stayed up late last night deep-diving into Walter Crane, the Arts & Crafts movement and The Socialist League. Cartoons for The Cause: collections.library.yale.edu/catalog/1659... Line & Form, a technical guide I simply must add to my collection: www.gutenberg.org/files/25290/...

STOP TELLING ME AI IS THE FUTURE OH MY GOD

still true

Mother's Day Present, Watercolor w/ Pen & Ink She hasn't seen it yet. I'm not super experienced with watercolor, but I've watched many tutorials and have read through a book with a 2nd just begun. I can see a lot of my mistakes and feel out of depth, but that's learning for you. More to come.

Wait, did they give carousel the boot? I'm viewing BSKY on mobile browser and it's gone? Thank fuck, that shit was big garbo.

Gd, UBI would fix so much shit.

They refuse to prune out these seemingly "disloyal" party members because they actually want the opposition's bills to pass.

people will tell you it’s complicated but it’s really not

Actually we should just give citizenship to every undocumented person in the United States who wants it. Walking over an imaginary line isn't some great moral atrocity. Making people live in the shadows as a permanent underclass absolutely IS.

Any use of genAI always reads to me like: “We just used a little bit of shit in our cake because we couldn’t afford chocolate.”

reshare for alt text, republicans and rich people who want to privatize mail have been lying about the USPS and trying to push this narrative longer than I've been alive, and imposing massive financial burdens on it to make it "insolvent"

meio assim

please continue to share your art despite it all

NSFW Artists being attacked on all fronts while the government actively protects pedos is fucking nuts and shouldn't be ignored.

FYI to you purist cunts: It won't stop with smut.

Hard to not go fucking insane in a world where they behave like fiction can hurt you while literally bombing schools. Hope all of these fascist fucks take a very long walk off of a very short pier.

Littke something to pin on Insta after the wave of A/I slop from this weekend

Chicago.

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

It doesn’t matter where you look, from Mexico, to Gaza, to Colombia, to Syria, to Irak, to Afghanistan, the vast majority of terror and butchery in the world is sponsored by the USA the capitalist American enterprise is an industry of death.

I'm tired of seeing how every corner of the internet has to be safe for children. It doesn't. It shouldn't be. Keep those kids off the web, it's unhealthy for them. Let adults have their space. How about instead of asking us for ID like we commited a crime, you make the spaces we use 18+?

it drives you insane how much erosion of freedom is justified by concern for kids when the people who actually hurt them will never face consequences

Depression is truly a horrid thing. I feel like I barely exist.

reminder that in the house of Chloé we hate AI crap, we support sex workers & we think people who can't let go their fucking terf wizard nostalgia are giant selfish babies

Today's progress.

...I keep forgetting to post projects in the initial stage. Anyways, carving a sad and miserable egg (no this is not a metaphor).

"shitting on ai makes you sound like a Luddite" oh okay, thank you! Luddites were cool as hell
