An illustration of a long haired man with elf ears looking somberly at the viewer. He has tear tracks down his cheeks. he is standing in front of a series of eroded statues, each of which also has tears in its eyes and is overgrown with foliage. The sky is red and ominous behind them.

An illustration with a decorative white border. In the center, a large, dark gray skinned man with glowing eyes is lying on his back, and a much shorter man with pale skin and long hair is resting on his shoulder, nude and draped in a dark blue cloth. In the background, various versions of the shorter man are lying dead, with a ripple effect distorting them and the background.

A group portrait of five men (two at the top, one in the center, two at the bottom), with each of the outer four looking yearningly at the man in the center. The top-left man has dark skin, red eyes looking away from the viewer, and black coily hair which is tied back with a red ribbon. The top-right man has pale white skin and long, silver hair and yellow eyes, and is wearing a black bodysuit mask over his mouth and nose. The man in the center has medium tan skin and long, dark blue hair with silver streaks. His eyes are golden. The bottom-left man has light skin, short black hair with a silver gradient at its roots, a mustache, and is wearing a decorative red rose eyepatch over his visible eye. The bottom-right man has light skin, blonde hair cut into a choppy jellyfish cut with curls at the bottom, and pale blue eyes.

A dark illustration of a sorcerer wearing black robes, a tall black hat, and a scarf resembling fish scales. He's also wearing a white mask that fully covers his face that resembles a jester's mask. The image has a patterned frame and text that reads "ARCH-SORCERER OF LYMPH YVON"

An illustration of two figures standing in front of a desert landscape. On the left is a much shorter and heavier-set man, with long blonde hair, elf ears, and a bone mask on his face. He is wearing ragged armor and a cape. On the right, a much taller man is fully concealed in shadow, wearing a wide ripped hat, a cloak over his body, and a mask covering his entire face. In the distance, an ominous black mass is floating in the sky. The image is bordered with an embossed, organic looking pattern.

ever since I was a little baby I knew I wanted to work a job thats impossible to live off of

There is an actual argument that this curse actually worked.

A drawing of my original character called The Fool. He is a male elf with pale skin and long, blood red hair. He is dressed in jester’s clothing in black, white, and red with gold trim details. He balances his weight on one foot, his other leg extended outward. His arms are slightly raised, and a bloody dagger is clutched in his right hand as he smiles at the viewer.

Ev’ry man’s a king and ev’ry king’s a clown! 🃏

just noticed i passed 5k, thank you guys 🥺🖤

Linkedin Post from a Pinterest designer reading: "Yesterday I was impacted by the Pinterest layoffs. I was Pinterest's only icon designer and product illustrator. In his email to the company, the CEO said "we’re doubling down on an AI-forward approach – prioritizing AI-focused roles, teams, and ways of working". I WAS working on AI projects including the Pinterest Assistant that soft-launched in October. If you haven't heard about that feature launch, you can find it on Pinterest's own newsroom or with a Google search. I was vocal internally about how our users don't want AI slop or features on the platform, how we as employees are feeling uncomfortable and discouraged about AI, and what I wanted from leadership. Last year, I told my manager I was worried about AI-based layoffs. I was told not to worry. At an onsite, we were told that "in the future", we would all be "managers of AIs". That I would be expected to manage some sort of AI employees, rather than craft and design my own work. Human-made art and design matter. I am never going to stop creating, even if the "home of inspiration" decides that creators are secondary to profits. If you want to support me, you can follow me on threads or instagram @bonniekatewolf where I post my hand-knit sweaters and oil paintings. If you want to hire a human illustrator, designer, or iconographer, my email and DMs are open for freelance, contract, or FTE roles."

So it's time for me to move to another platform to save images

KURT VONNEGUT: Oh, she says well, you're not a poor man. You know, why don't you go online and buy a hundred envelopes and put them in the closet? And so I pretend not to hear her. And go out to get an envelope because I'm going to have a hell of a good time in the process of buying one envelope. I meet a lot of people. And, see some great looking babes. And a fire engine goes by. And I give them the thumbs up. And, and ask a woman what kind of dog that is. And, and I don't know… And, of course, the computers will do us out of that. And, what the computer people don't realize, or they don't care, is we're dancing animals. You know, we love to move around. And, we're not supposed to dance at all anymore.

every time i see some new attempt to Streamline and Optimize our Lives i think about this kurt vonnegut quote that does rounds. we're dancing animals! not everything needs to be optimized! sometimes a tedious task creates an unlikely opportunity to learn something about yourself! or for joy!!

bust shots of my partner and i's pokemon ocs skyflare and halcyon. halcyon is on the left. she is a victini gijinka with a puffy formal outfit. she is gently cupping her hand under skyflare's chin to tease him. skyflare is looking away. he is a shaymin gijinka with white robes. different assorted sweets are surrounding them.

two characters, luka and umi sitting at a round table with a white cloth. there is a cake platter staked with sweets including cupcakes, strawberry flavored cakes, what are supposed to be donut holes, and more cake at the bottom. luka , on the left, is wearing a dark blouse with a fluffy collar. they have medium tone brown skin with freckles, green and yellow eyes, black and white horns and a thick black devil/draconic tail. umi is across from him and has pink and purple hair, short black horns on top, white horns on the side, a puffy long-sleeved sweater-like blouse that is partially covered by a long green cape. luka is pouring umi some more tea. they are situated in a garden like area with roses and vague orange and yellow flowers hanging from a white tall fence

Posting here, too.

yeah i can see it

i think that'll be my next move if they ignore my report 😫 we spoke to our maintenance guy a few months ago and he said the complex was "waiting til they had more residents' reports" to actually do anything. so i guess somehow they think it's wise to wait til there's MORE raccoons??

"sorry, i havent finished a project in months, i've been at war with myself"

remarkably appropriate meme

WIP

sadly no, it seems to be accessing the space above the top floor through the awning over the front door downstairs, so i don't think there's an access point that anybody besides maintenance could get into 😥 i'm guessing they've been ignoring reports because it'd be a hassle to get somebody in there

i have no idea what to do beyond reporting it again, not sure if there's some higher authority i can contact about this but it's getting absurd

there's a racoon living in the ceiling of my apartment that we've reported to the complex many times over the past few years, and tonight he started squaring up with some other animal. their scuffle was so loud and intense i genuinely thought they might fall through into our living room

Fellow artists beware of job listings or recruiters from a group posing as Blinkmoon. Preying on hopeful artists in this job climate is disgusting. Don't let them waste your time.

More details in OPs thread.
