I would like to formally apologize for not drawing much of anything for art fight this year. but at least I’ll actually be prepared next year

need to return to my roots (drawing a fresh new picture explicitly to use as a pfp)

meme image that reads 'if I say I'm going to draw something and I don't it's not that I lied it's just that I failed'

My first Wacom tablet in 2001:

EVERY FORUM POST: How do I do the thing I need to do?
EVERY TOP REPLY: If I understand you correctly [doesn't], I have never needed to do that, so why would you want to?

I know none of this fixes the monetization issue for all the businesses 😔 if all else fails people are starting to hype up red note/xiahongshu and douyin as TikTok alternatives

might I ask what’s going on with VPNs for the US? I’ve seen a good handful of people from Russia and other places TikTok is inaccessible say they get by fine with VPNs. I’ve also recently heard of TikTokmodcloud which might be promising although I do think it’s unfortunately an android apk only

maybe I’m missing smthn but im surprised I don’t hear more ppl talking about pushback instead of accepting this as an inevitability. I expected to at least see inklings of how to MAYBE get around the ban or otherwise protest but there just kind of seems like a collective helplessness instead

2025 will be the year I finally focus on drawing characters kissing

Max sets Sesame Street out on the curb Max sets Sesame Street out on the curb

zaslav cancelled Sesame Street, if you were like. waiting on one more straw to break your camel’s back wrt to hating that man and all he stands for

I bought regular ol secret brand deodorant at the grocery store recently and it was like $15. the people complaining that $5 is too much for deodorant (I’m assuming) have probably never used any a day in their lives what on earth 😭

Daniel Penny acquitted after literally killing someone on camera for being disruptive on the train the same day a person of interest in the shooting of a shitbag healthcare exec gets grabbed pretty succinctly sums up who in this country is allowed to kill and who they’re allowed to kill.

The Greeks absolutely had it right when they included a chorus in their plays. They knew audiences are dumbasses who need to be told “THIS MAN IS BAD. HE IS HERE AS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT *NOT* TO DO. WOE TO THE BUMPTIOUS FOOL WHO WOULD IDOLIZE HIM. YOU ARE NOT, NOR DO YOU WANT TO BE, ALEX DELARGE”

idc how many times I’ve heard that song if there’s an edit to Tate mcrae’s it’s okay im okay I WILL add it to my likes

I should do more lineless pictures they always look so simple and clean (this is not a deliberate utada hikaru reference)

Lineless drawing of Sal fisher from the game sally face doing the rock on symbol

even after 2 years this is still a fun doodle

Not to sound insane but the sandwich bread I bought was $7 and from now on I will be making that shit from scratch instead

I feel like we all just picked Bluesky and didn’t even give MILF Messenger a chance

truly wish to learn how to paint traditionally but honestly I always feel so wasteful making traditional art over digital since if you fuck up with your medium you have to toss it instead of hitting the undo button…paint is expensive

At least he doesn’t play a red deck I guess 😔

Monkey boy🐵

Do you ever just avoid the main quest in a game for a single side-quest and then it turns into a million different side-quests and you have completely forgotten and abandoned THE MAIN STORY QUEST altogether?!

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I can not stress enough how much you should avoid men who play mtg at all costs

Historically, NSFW creators and SWs are always the foundational users of any new social site, and historically, they're the first ones to get hidden/forced off once corporations start sniffin' around looking to make money. Use your dang moderation settings if NSFW bothers you and let folks be

very conflicted between getting the new sonic x shadow game OR dragon age…I’ve been waiting for both but games are so expensive nowadays

Sheep?

And if you don’t know, now you know! 🚫GenAI on Bluesky 🦋☁️

I feel Ike bluesky has way less like…negative posts? I don’t see stuff every second post about an animal going extinct or climate change being fucked and it’s honestly really nice because yeah you should stay informed but also I need an escape from the bad shit??

If you're a creator who:

- Takes long break periods
- Creates very slowly
- Has another full time job or engagement
- Struggles with productivity
- Is inconsistent

I'm sorry to tell you...

YOU'RE STILL A VALID CREATOR BECAUSE CREATING IS TIED TO PASSION, NOT PRODUCTIVITY 💜✨️
