A collage of images from #Nosferatu of 1922 - on the left a dramatic poster portraying Count Orlok, on the top right the iconic scene of his shadow ascending a staircase, and in the lower right Orlok is fatally exposed to the sun.

On this day in 1922, German director #FWMurnau released the iconic expressionist silent movie #Nosferatu – Eine Symphonie des Grauens (A Symphony of Horror).

Happy birthday, Tex!

Ever since he started directing, he didn't stop pumping out the zaniest and funniest cartoons out there. This short is a prime example of his work while also strengthening his most popular character, Droopy.

His and Hers. Not sure if it’s clear which side of the sink is mine. #oilpainting #art

People who talk about game design and view games as art should make more analogies to other artforms & see if it sounds right in that context. A lot of conventional "design wisdom" sounds like absolutely bonkers corporate unofficial marketing wing nonsense when you apply it to any other medium

Without the friends... We frown

Buttons from Buttons’ Gamezone, check it out on WB TV’s YouTube Channel!

I absolutely loved @fernandopuig.bsky.social’s Buttons’ Gamezone so I drew some rough fanart, happy to see it so long after it was first announced!

Floofy Little Egret standing on a rock on a rocky shoreline.

Between the wet weather lately and the recurring desire not to hike with a heavy camera/lens otherwise, I've barely photographed any #birds at all over the past month or so.

Do I have any egrets about that? Maybe just a little egret.

ever notice how every giant fandom becomes a toxic cesspool full of drama and resentment towards the creator of the work they're all obsessing over, hmm almost like centering your life around a piece of media is not healthy

The #kakapo chicks are coming thick and fast! We're now up to 10 hatched. Here are Tiwhiri-A1 and Tiwhiri-A2 receiving a health check at Yasmine's nest on Pukenui/Anchor Island. 📸: Lydia Uddstrom #kakapo2026 #conservation #birds #parrots

Modern fandom culture is the death of every creative work and should not have been normalized by the internet. I will die on that hill

I sympathize with people annoyed by AI assist on Facebook but, as with Twitter, why are you still on Facebook. Call gam gam on the landline she still has.

Colorised sketcbook pages depicting various character from the Mario franchise. On the left side, Goombella and Vivian chat over a cup of tea about their crushes. On the top right, Rosalina daydreams at a garden table with a mug of hot tea in her hand. Behind her, a starry background where a few lumas twirl around with Mario's spaceship. And finally on the botom right, Luigi hums while reading a magazine.

My ultimate anti-stress remedy ? Drawing Mario characters in casual clothes, having a nice time 😌
