A local restaurant in my town is giving away free meals to federal employees and taking cash donations to help cover the costs There's lots of mutual aid around and you just got to go out and look for it I just donated $100 to them, hopefully it will feed lots Also their pizza is good

Lol alright. I'm going to bed now 😽

Oh right this one I took specifically for @rincewind.run

Democrats take note. It's that easy to support trans people and tell us we are cherished. You will have the fiercest allies supporting you. Thank You Zohran. I wish I could vote for you from another State!

This is Ada Lovelace, daughter of Lord Byron and considered to be the first person to write a computer programme which was for Babbage's Analytical Machine. She died in 1842 In her honour, today is Ada Lovelace Day and is all about encouraging women and girls in mathematics, science and engineering.

I accidentally glitched out an animation I was working on and created a perfect example of what the passage of time feels like to someone with ADHD

With AI art on the rise, I've decided I'm not gonna work so hard anymore towards perfectionism. I encourage other artists to do the same. Leave in sketch marks. Use jaggedy brushes. Slop the colors. To hell with uniform line weights. To err is, indeed, human.

My favorite teacher in High School let me doodle in class because she understood "parallel play" and since I kept my grades up, she knew I was paying attention. To this day I can still look at my HS sketchbooks and tell you what lecture I drew them in.

V for Vendetta (2005), which came out in the utter rectal depth of the United States' previous plague of Republican fascism and Democratic appeasement, featured something similar. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OhNJ...

In the middle of nowhere and finding one of the best bookstores in the world. RIP my wallet 😭

#Art #Acrylic #Surreal Good Night Everybody. Peace. (Art- Greg CRAOLA Simkins).

I've literally been seeing music artists who have been apolitical for literal decades so this too. Shame.

Happy Wednesday! No context whatsoever... None at all 😏

Glenn Beck’s media outlet The Blaze just gave an interview last month to the person who killed the politicians in Minnesota

“So what if he disagreed with you, he didn’t deserve to die” But he thought I did. This isn’t disagreement. It’s someone who was not only opposed to my existence but was called a good and faithful servant by the church for doing it. I don’t have to mourn that. And asking me to is violence too.

I would like to take this opportunity to remember Melissa Hortman, a serving Democratic politician assasinated by a right-winger.

maybe if we sang “Free Palestine” to the tune of “Sweet Caroline” we could get more white people on board

Considering making a similar photo of myself posing like I’m a badass with all my books laid out.

Random game of the day: Commander Keen: Secret of the Oracle (Sidescrolling: iD Software, 1991) Download/play: https://dosgames.com/game/commander-keen-4-secret-of-the-oracle/ #dosgaming #retrogaming #sidescrolling #platformer #ega #mario

I'm scanning my entire library of sketchbooks from 2003 to present (probably some earlier than that just not bound) it's a wild trip through a literal memory lane. I've grown a lot but want to grow more.

Every video Jacob makes, by the end of it, I just have to sit back in silence and go, "damn"

Wore a Superman shirt out today and everybody kept asking if I saw the new movie. I hadn't so I treated myself to a date tonight and saw it. It was fantastic and I thoroughly enjoyed it!

please gush, please comment, please ask questions, please know it means so much when people do! Things are so hard for a lot of us artists right now, this is such a perfect way to support us. And free!

It's got enough room for me & the whole squad ⚔️

Voyage of the Mimi feels like a fever dream. I think we watched it in science class. I just remember it was about a boat. I think every millennial has seen every episode of Bill Nye at least 457 times. His passion and energy for science and teaching really hasn't been matched. "Science Rules!"

Seriously considering just unplugging the Internet in my home at night just to curb my doom scrolling habit.

I've been devouring the #Discworld #NightWatch arc and I love Vimes and Sybil. I need more Sybil In my head Sam looks kinda like Inigo Montoya and Sybil adult Merida. (Just finished Jingo)

Spending the holiday watching Predator and avoiding celebrating my shitty country

It was the BLURST of times...

I thought I could post something for every day of June, but I fell off, sorry. Here's some more stuff I guess #traditionalart #oc #drawing #sketch #marker #ballpointpen #art

More old Pynk and Aesop character interactions. They swing between enemies and allies as they travel through different dimensions #OC #traditionalart #sketch #ballpointpen #marker #traditionalart

I liked #Borderlands2 and #TFTBL a little too much. #rhack occupies way too many of my sketchbooks. #fanart #sketch #pencil #traditionalart #HandsomeJack #Rhys

A very rare #Overwatch fan art from me because I thought #Tracer was cool. I tried to play it once and I suck at it. #drawing #sketch #traditionalart #fanart #pen

Sid... I just think he's neat #traditional #art #sketch #OC #ballpointpen #marker

Moving onto a new story idea for Pynk. I had a partner who inspired this other OC known for a while as "The Gold King". He's a fun concept but kinda dropped him after we broke up lmao. Still kinda like the idea, and I kinda made him my own anyway. #OC #sketch #traditional #art #ballpointpen

Still in Pynk's "Death" arc. These are some of the last sketches from that idea before I moved on to another story for them

Sorry for the late uploads. I've been trying to keep up with my post a day for June, but I was out of town. Here's a "portrait" of me from 2021 #art #digitalart #selfportrait #cartoon

I can't say that I really like brown paper sketchbooks very much, but I got 2 for some reason, so I had to use them up. #sketch #oc #traditionalart #ballpointpen #marker #oc

Trying to fill up a sketch page in creative ways. Pynk can wear whatever they want #traditionalart #oc #ballpointpen #marker #sketch

Playing with expressions. I'm finally starting to be consistent with my characters at this point. #oc #traditionalart #art #ballpointpen #marker

Sid hasn't changed much since his first humanoid conception. I've had to work on the body tattoos a bit, and he doesn't (presumably) have any ethereal powers anymore. I love my tol boi #traditionalart #oc #sketch #ballpointpen #marker

More Sky sketches. Sorry for the delay, I was out of town and didn't have my computer #traditionalart #oc #art #sketch #ballpointpen

Inside of the Universe of Pynk I slowly started to incorporate a new character. Here are some of my first sketches of Sky. She continues to be a bilateral amputee to this day.

Moving on with more early Pynk exploration. I didn't really know what to do with the character at the time, in fact, I don't think they even had a name. I just knew I liked them a lot

Tryna find something decent from my phone I can post today because I don't feel like sitting through my computer tonight. Allergy season has hit me like a train #art #oc #pen #traditional #sketch

So, why is Pynk? Pynk was created during a time when I was at a rock bottom. I was suffering from incredible loss, drug addiction, mental health struggle, and sexual violence. I thought if I can pour those experiences into my art then something good might come out of it. #art #oc #ballpointpen
