Applied to 7 jobs this morning while my cat told me that capitalism only leads to despair. Gonna go cry in the shower or something now.

Every single day for the past 2 months has felt like, “oh nice, today’s a day that I can focus on drawing,” but then procrastination and obligations collide and… no drawing. Two months of not drawing for pleasure 😭

Hoops I must jump through for Unemployment (I got laid off back in Sept.) involve watching training videos on being a good interview (actually helpful) and then recording myself answering the selected questions so that an AI bot can grade me on varied criteria. It feels like a new circle of hell.

#Halloweek countdown continues with another #GraveyardGuy . This one has settled on a vintage #BenCooper mask for his costume. #haunteddavidart #horrorbeefcake #hirsute #supportqueerartists #queerart #homoerotic #halloween #graveyard

A vampire that’s not Dracula

Counting down #Halloweek with the very first Graveyard Guy I drew. #Halloween is 3 days away and there’s no stopping it. #haunteddavidart #horrorbeefcake #supportqueerartists #queerart #skullface #hoodie #skullmakeup #homoerotic #graveyard

Happy Halloweek to this bone daddy. #halloween #horrorbeefcake #skeletonman #hocuspocus #halloweek

I don’t know about anyone else, but the shittiness of traffic driving home ALWAYS outweighs the good time of going out for me. (I type this in a TRULY foul mood).

“Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you happiness.”

Now that I have secured theatrical tix for GDT's #Frankenstein , it's time to remember PENNY DREADFUL's Harry Treadaway (love a Victorian goth boy with eye makeup) and his twin brother, Luke. #harrytreadaway #luketreadaway #twins #victorfrankenstein #pennydreadful #briefs #AnythingYouCanDo

I kind of hate that thing where people snap their fingers instead of clapping. Who decided that was cool? It looks patronizing. #hottake #oldpeoplegripe

Who robbed the Louvre? Right answers only

Skeleton party. #halloween #halloweendecor #skeleton

Two weeks until #Halloween and I’m doing a terrible job creating or posting any new work. #haunteddavidart #horrorbeefcake #supportqueerartists #queerart #witch #brujo #artegay #cauldron

Sunday funday, Halloween season edition. #haunteddavidart #scream #halloween #horrorbeefcake #ghostface #briefs #supportqueerartists #queerart

Smoking is gross & inexcusable in 2025 with decades of scientific evidence confirming the health dangers, but being around someone who’s vaping is a close 2nd in regards to pure disgustingness. Sneaking hits off your vape at an indoor venue is both sad and rude.

Dear Hollywood execs, why can I see bare breasts and ‘70s bush on both a female corpse and an invalid old woman, but I can’t see #CharlieHunnam hanging dong? I don’t think you’re trying to sexualize a serial killer nearly hard enough. #ryanmurphy #monster #edgein #equalopportunitynudity

Unsolicited #HotTake for record labels: Releasing a #Halloween season #vinyl that doesn’t ship UNTIL October 31st defeats the purpose. #halloweenrecord #spookyvinyl

Candelabra ✅ Semi-sheer nightgown ✅ Grand staircase ✅ This is my jam.

Happy October 1st to all who celebrate -- only thirty more days until #Halloween ! #haunteddavidart #horrorbeefcake #queerart #queerartist #spookyboy #october1st #halloweeniscoming

The official #NightStage movie Instagram page reposted my review of the film! It’s hands-down (my pants!) my favorite film of #FantasticFest and I recommend seeking it out. #AtoNoturno #supportqueerart #queerfilm #gaythriller

#FantasticFest edition. #LastFourWatched #LetterboxdFriday

Holy fucking shit #FantasticFest , just walked out of the shorts screening because 3 out of the 5 I saw featured more animal deaths. I’m so not down with that, but they’re coming for me in force now. #thedogdies

Highlight of yesterday’s #FantasticFest was catching the #MastersOfHorror 20th anniversary panel with Mick Garris, #Don Coscarelli, Ernest Dickerson, and Joe Dante! #filmfestival #horrorlegends

JFC, I just watched two dead animal films in a row and now someone has to pay.

I’ve been at a film festival for the past week and am personally disappointed that, more often than not, it’s the filmmakers/talent who talk & text during the films. I really expected them to treasure the sanctity of the cinema as much as I do.

My favorite film on this 4th day of #FantasticFest is MÁRAMA from New Zealand: an anti-colonialism film with a deliciously perverse gothic heart and an appropriately angry #Maori heroine who’s really good with a machete. #maramafilm

#FantasticFest secret screening no. 1 featuring pillow lips and soft pink nips. #silentnightdeadlynight #RohanCampbell

My favorite film on this 3rd day of #FantasticFest is the red hot & unapologetically horny queer Brazilian thriller, #NightStage in which private thrills put public personas at risk. This one doesn’t judge and never tsk-tsk’s the lead couple’s love of public sex and cruising spots. #MakeMoviesGay

Opening night of #FantasticFest : I talked to so many people (I never talk) that I started losing my voice and I stayed up so much later than normal that I think I might die. Oh, and I saw some films, some knights, and a dragon.

Imma be at FANTASTIC FEST starting Thursday — I’ve been the artist for @salemhorrorfest.bsky.social for the past 8 years, so hit me up if you need some design work! #hauntedddavidart #fantasticfest2025 #filmfestival #posterdesign #fantasticfest #filmfestival

Wishing the happiest of birthdays (and many more) to my beloved Queen of #Halloween , @therealelvira.bsky.social -- long may she reign. #haunteddavidart #ElviraMistressOfTheDark #QueenOfHalloween #horrorhost #boobtube #hostesswiththemostest #CassandraPeterson

Consider this an “end of summer” piece as I need to get working on Halloweeny autumnal art. #haunteddavidart #beefcake #supportqueerartists #queerart #whitesocks #shortshorts #jockstrap #gymfantasy #scent #queerartist

I honestly did not realize they were twins until they said so (like 25 minutes in). I thought he was just Uncle Karl’s longtime roommate.

“I wanted you to tell me about the dreams that you never would have dreamt.”

It’s been a week of highs and lows. (AKA “give it to me Italian style). #letterboxdfriday #lastfourwatched

Yesterday was my birthday and I am now so old that I can only be contacted via Ouija cake. (The letters are shaped like bones!!!) #birthday #birthdaycake #ouija #gothcake

Rant ahead: Can we stop demonizing gay sex, especially in films about gay relationships? People in love have sex. Period. You show it in straight films. This is pandering to an audience that won’t even see this film. Sex is healthy; sex is fun. It doesn’t lessen or cheapen anything, coward.

Because we survived another day in the hellscape, a treat flashback to Trent Reznor filming the "Closer" video -- formative perv shit!

Post a meme made by you

I hope that seeing Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, and Mia Goth doing press for GDT's #FRANKENSTEIN isn't setting my hopes too high...

Happy #FrankensteinDay — it's Mary Shelley's 228th birthday and her monstrous creation still endures (and, naturally, I'm going to homoertoticize him). #haunteddavidart #maryshelley #horrorbeefcake #greaser #pompadour #frankenstein #supportqueerartists #queerart

TGIF -- celebrating the long Labor Day Weekend by wishing on was on a beach getaway with my partner in crime rather than sitting behind a desk counting the hours. #haunteddavidart #supportqueerart #queerartist #boybeach #herringcove #horrorbeefcake #supportqueerart #queerartist

My latest drawing is inspired by a fabulous gold & black robe from a J.C. Leyendecker painting as well as seeing y’all post about #MorganSpector (among other things). #haunteddavidart #beefcake #jcleyendecker #homoerotic #supportqueerartists #queerartist

Hear me out...

I know it's only Wednesday, but I have spent every day this week wanting to scream into the void until I pass out from lack of oxygen.
