art strim? with ElfyBean?? it's more likely that you might think. twitch.tv/elfybean

Bill Watterson is my favorite cartoonist. I adored the relationship btw Calvin and Hobbes as a child. But as I've gotten older, these strips feel even more tender and insightful. My respect for him grew when I learned of his stance against merchandising. Such principles are almost unheard of today.

Hey #portfolioday I’m a environment artist specializing in materials. I’ve done everything from props, vehicles, environments, photogrammetry, & shaders during my time in games: 🎨: www.artstation.com/chrisnvasquez Some material & sculpts I had fun doing on my personal time! #zbrush

more Neongarten? Yes, actually. Trying out Steam input for my controller, this time; let's see if I can play without the mouse?? twitch.tv/elfybean

The winner of today's one-liner goes to a guy who looked like he was sleeping. Scene: the ENT clinic, waiting for audiologist Asst calls a name three times. Asst (just loudly enough to be heard): I really wish people would pay attention. Guy: I bet many of the people here wish they could hear.

Pro-tip: Repeatedly checking a phone has never decreased anyone's anxiety level.

Osamu Tezuka famously did this.

Attention Bluesky elders: The artist behind the ANIMORPHS covers is here!

wow really helpful, thank you new york times

Because I've really been enjoying playing this on and off stream, i'm gonna throw the game's Steam link into this sky so blue, in the hopes that this game makes you happy, too~ store.steampowered.com/app/3211750/...

moar neon city stacking, in Neongarten! www.twitch.tv/elfybean #neongarten #elfybelive

if you joined ICE I don't think you just get to melt back into society ever again. I think it should be the albatross around your neck for the rest of your life. I sure as hell won't hire anyone who worked for ICE. hope that signing bonus lasts

do you wanna build a ci-tyyyy~? a neon-hued block with cops and hackers and coffee shops and dance clubs! It's time to play Neongarten! www.twitch.tv/elfybean #neongarten #ElfyBeLive

Seeing a bunch of streamers report that their Twitch accounts were compromised and that their payout methods were changed. (That's despite having 2FA on.) Linking a bunch of posts in the replies, but keep an eye on this!

"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future." - @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit. Incredible words. Listen to all of it!

Flossie, the world’s oldest living cat, has celebrated her 30th birthday.

I sketch almost exclusively in ballpoint pen nowadays, and it's still my medium of choice for plein air studies:

New Boxing Day greeting just dropped!

The copcar monster for #LookOutside, you'll notice he was not merged with the car, I didnt know what kind of corruption was apporpiate for that, so Frankie added it later. I wanted to devote my first post here to celabrate the first fanart I've gotten AFAIK, I love their take on it!

If you use GenAI, you’re not welcome here #NoAI

instead of starting stream, I fed all my tarantulas and my African fat-tailed gecko <3 Is it what I'd planned to do? No. But it needed to be done, and I got to check on the biggun that molted recently. ...and then rescue one of the cats from that molt, because the shed skin does still have claws.

Jane Austen used 'however' at the beginning of a sentence, and so can you.

Merriam-Webster’s human editors have chosen ‘slop’ as the 2025 Word of the Year.

Did you know that every single background and sprite in our games is painstaking drawn and inked by hand? Every line matters, across literally thousands of illustrations. 😤

New art? Yeah, I gorked it over on Grinklr. You can totally regork it and give me a griggle.

Thank you for the awesome SciAnts News Friday! We chatted new species of nematode and dog stem cell therapies! Thank you @captstu @spacestationzero @theshyhat @smirkylive.bsky.social @mister__brain @zombyjezuz for the raids! We passed the love to @hisandherslive.bsky.social !

Honestly knowing when to stop streaming something is one of the biggest challenges for me. Especially when I enjoy it. Just some words. Read if you like.

can ur man do THIS *quietly plays snake on an old nokia phone for hours*

i'd planned to stream sketchbook makin' but my hands are really sore. I'm just gonna pop some ibuprofen and put on the ice brace for the afternoon. take care of yourselves, everybody, and I'll see y'all Tuesday <3

It should be illegal to lay people off in December. Let people feel hope and happiness in the midst of the dark and cold. In fact? Make that November and December. Also, is any layoffs happen, execs should not be eligible for bonuses. If you can't afford employees, you can't afford a bonus.

I am so sick and tired of professional athletes telling kids they have to "exercise" and "practice" and "eat right" to become world-class athletes. That sort of gate-keeping has to stop! Today I'm announcing a new non-profit that provides unlimited steroids to any kid who wants to compete.

this game is INTENSELY CUTE AND FUN. also, to whomever animated the fireworks: I loved them and plan to study them for my own animation practice later.

Years later, my corydoras t-shirt from Pikaole's shop is still one of my favorite shirts, and it's one of the only normal-collared shirts I didn't need to modify before wearing. 10/10
