"The Lion in Winter" is the best Christmas movie.

Odysseus and Penelopes love language is playing long mind games on people who threaten to ruin their life together.

Hades 2's dismissive treatment of Penelope was, in fact, a deal breaker because I walked away from the game at that dialogue and never looked back. The only way I could ever buy Odysseus being that "Oh well" about THE WOMAN HE GAVE UP IMMORTALITY FOR LIKE TWICE is if it had been a long con.

I got to do the cover of Avatar Legends TTRPG that dropped earlier this year...! really proud of how it came out

Got this for my wife's nephew largely so I can brag about @artofchira.bsky.social.

Hum de hum de hum I'm an adult with a mortgage and a career and a toddler and I'm not sitting in the playroom covered in tape because I didnt wrap Holiday gifts until the day before we see everyone hum de hahahahah

When you screw up your kid's drop off time on a half day (they moved it an hour earlier), but you're standing out there in the rain with other parents who ALSO screwed it up. (Toddlers were playing happily)

my heart, your hands

Currently reading through Song of the Bull Rider and its so good. I am just eating it up, the world, the characters. Good stuff.

Its 2 am and toddler just finally fell back asleep on my leg after quite a bit of wilding. I live here now.

Things are Terrible, but this isn't. Be weird.

New England BS.

New England BS.

This was my biggest tweet over in the bad place. It will live here now. 🧙‍♀️🎄

Trying out some water color brushes in procreate with a rough Wake Up Dead Man study. I just really liked the lighting in this movie….

I am in awe. The folks at ReBoot ReWind have done something astonishing. A remarkable feat of engineering, ingenuity and love. Check it out and give them some ReBooty love in return. youtu.be/L00jx-GH2w8?...

Never ever let me reach the point in my career where I think I'm too good for an editor. They are clutch.

Lighting Hanukkah candles is hard this year. Between the brutalities of Israel and the anti-semites capitalizing on it I feel complicated about my heritage in a lot of ways. But as I sing with my daughter, I remember that, to me at least, Judaism is a survivors faith. We're still here.

The Secret Garden was Wuthering Heights Fix-It fanfiction, pass it on.

I'm Alex. I write a lot of cosmic horror with a transcendentalist bent. Which usually mean transformation. Regret is the affliction that itches at a protagonists skin, often one they notice far too late. Redemption is either the final transformation into something better-- or worse.

And Christmas shall come, and with it the Waif, eyes wide like liquid coins. Show sympathy, else he summon the Three Horrors upon you.

I am an old man, @mozilla.org, and I was happy to sit in my rocking chair and use Firefox until sunset. But if you insist on choking this browser with GenAI bloat, I will face God and walk backwards into Linux.

Had to explain Ea-Nasir to my therapist

Today’s procreate experiment. Based on a marsh I drive by in the mornings. Trying to be bolder about textures….

My series from VIZ, Status Royale is a (e)sports manga that takes place in the near-future! It's about a Rowdy Girl rounds up a gaming team to take on the top player in the world: her Ex-Bestie🎮💫💥 It's one of my most collaborative comics, as I was able to hire/delegate parts to talented creatives.

Oh hey! Story acceptance.

Just finished Wake Up Dead Men and let me just say: Wow, that was good. SO glad I didn't go into this spoiled it was SUCH A RIDE.

Still at it. There was a nice sunset after the snow today.

It’s the first night of Hanukkah and the world seems like a very dark place. But we can bring light to the darkness. We can fight for each other and make goodness, love, and community shine through. Show me your menorahs and let’s light up the timeline!

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites. The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

Time to celebrate one half of my heritage kicking the other half's ass.

I genuinely don't know if this is a "Minnesotan" thing or an "old guy of a certain age" thing but in case it's Minnesotan and people need an anger translator: this guy is so angry he could just about set something on fire with his mind.

More procreate practice. Inspired by fairytale Brother and Sister.

Chira is amazing and so skilled and so kind She knows her stuff and she's really good at articulating advice, sharing resources, and helping people in the direction they want to go If you're looking for a mentorship this is a good place to go 👇👇👇

Watching The Avengers in NYC and HEARING the collective wince and multiple "nooooooooo"s when Thor drove a space whale through Grand Central. Also, that time we saw Mad Max: Fury Road and one dude in the front just loudly whispered, "This movie is SICK." right as it started.

Not me belatedly following old Twitter mutuals because it took me that long to find them again...

so I've been seeing HansRy fanart for ages thinking it was someone's OCs. stumbled on the fact it's not, it's Kingdom Come: Deliverance shipping. And they're canon. I've fallen down a rabbit hole I can't get out of because wtf why does this medieval history simulator nail queer romance this hard

"Real Gomez and Morticia vibe" is the highest compliment I will grant upon a straight couple in media.

Watched @artofchira.bsky.social play through the DLC for Forspoken. Once again sad this game got completely assassinated by its marketing team! It was way better than ANYONE gave it credit for. The DLC was so beautiful and fun!! Luminous created such a strange and interesting world.

youtu.be/fb2aAtapOQk?... I love when children's performers go entirely harder than they have ever needed to go.

Toddler got out of the bath, buckass naked into our room, and threw a letter 'U' at my wife, and ran back to the bath cackling. This nonsense was brought to you by the letter "U" and nudists like you, toddler.

A fun practice study.
