I finally got my gamer chaaaair!! 😭

So, I recently joined this Mario Kart group online. Everyone there is so awesome and I've had such a blast, so I started making art of our characters. Even made a lil' Dry Bones oc for myself. Let me tell you, it's been sooo long since I've felt this much joy from making art.

You'll get "savaged" even harder just for using AI, you fucking walnut. Sit down.

A REAL crush? No. A fake crush used for funnies in my posts? Absolutely. *cough* John.

"concept artists can experiment with AI to make their lives easi-" wrong I smack you with Claire Hummel's immaculate and detailed understanding of costume design, which she got by studying historical references, which made her strong, which you will not become by relying on AI get good

Why does Clip Studio reset whenever I click off for more than 2 seconds? I’m so sick of constantly being assaulted by its bright ass loading screen.

If you I haven't already, GET THE FUCK OFF TWITTER. I'm serious.

Omg the new Amazing Digital Circus episode...

The colors didn't line up quite right at the end, but IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME. I'll take my grade now.

Stuck doing screenprinting tonight. 7 colors. First color refuses to print right. Off to a great start.

Love how Patreon doesn't inform me that my payments are declining until nearly a YEAR AFTER THE FACT.

I can usually tell when a mangaka has switched to digital in the middle of a series because I'll suddenly notice all these background characters that were clearly larger drawings sized down. It looks more cohesive if you stick to the same/similar brush size when drawing smaller figures.

I drew this Peepa for a Mario Kart buddy of mine, and ngl, I love how much it clashes with my study sketches.

Being unable to tolerate frustration + chasing social media clout gotta be a big reason why ppl jumped on the gen ai machine to churn out slop

For real. You will never EVER catch me thinking "oh...thats it?" when getting complimented on my work. Simple comments like "this is cool" will still make my day 100%.

Here’s my Spotify Wrapped 🎵✨

Reminds me of how "Smoking Behind the Supermarket With You" looked when it was still a webcomic compared to how it looked after getting picked up and having a whole team behind it. While one looks more polished, especially in the background department, they're both perfectly readable.

instead of buying shit that's not even on discount today you should instead support independent webcomics for the low, low price of read them for free online. Maybe even hand them a couple of bucks or buy something from their online storefronts... just saying...

Wish I inherited my mom’s level of chill.

Commissions are CLOSED. Thank you SO much to everyone who commissioned me these last few months. Got me out of some tough binds for sure. 😌

I had to mute one of my friends via text because he kept sending me pics of "funny shitty logos" Meta ai made for him. Like, dude, you should know by now how much I fucking hate this shit. I go out of my way to NOT see this shit. Now you're bugging me to say you use ai for funsies? Fuck. Off.

...FOR something cool >u>

Working on something cool... #mario #drybones

One week later and I still enjoy working at my desk!! I can't believe adding a TV was the answer. 😅

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Hell yeah NYC!!! 💙

LOVE how this turned out. I am NOT looking forward to screen printing it. 7 colors…🪦💀

I really love this Vincent Van Gogh quote: "To do good work one must eat well, be well housed, have one's fling from time to time, smoke one's pipe, and drink one's coffee in peace." No romanticizing the starving artist. Van Gogh said UBI all the way.

Hey guys! I want to share this amazing commission I had made by my buddy @hvoice.bsky.social It's Isis and Rahab going to a rock show together and who better to draw this than the creator of Love Metal? This turned out so cool! I love all the little details! Thanks again for drawing them! 🖤💀🖤

Me to all my customers with complaints today.

My desk is surrounded. Send help.

This fucking jump scare. #legendsZA

Chad has been fired from many part-time jobs. Either for general laziness or hitting on the customers.

The people yearn for (democratic) socialism (this one will make you cry)

Dusted off my old college dorm TV. Whatever it takes to get me to work at my desk. 😂

If you see someone pocketing essentials, no you didn't. If you work in a big store, they're insured for losses. You might get little rewards for stopping theft, but are they worth bringing harm to your fellow people? If you RUN a store, say no to police invasions of your store.

Also.

ive been thinking about this since I walked around AnimeExpo, and walking around Lightbox really cemented it for me: But I think more artist alley tables should have a tip jar. there are so many artists I come across that id like to support financially, but I often have no need of any more merch

Man, everytime I see the URL for Bluesky “bsky” I think-

Here’s one of my favorite moments. Back then, most minor details wouldn’t come up in the script. I‘d come up with things like drawing characters as chibis, or including them in the background as onlookers in the thumbnail stage.

Me: oops, forgot to order this as decaf. *takes sip* My brain: Oh GOD yes! FINALLY!
