I'm convinced those people who draw mice dying on glue traps to try to garner sympathy have never had a mice infestation in their home. Don't shy away. Let me release 20 mice into your home and let's see how sympathetic you are then.

I feel like videogames actually do provide a pretty accurate representation of real life right now because a lot of videogames are like “THE WORLD IS ENDING” and then you just collect herbs and pretend nothing is wrong

Wait this is your work??? 😭😭😭 I reposted before and forgot. So beautiful! Amazing work.

Can't wait to read more of her work, thanks for the rec! I absolutely LOVE the image on the wall, is it a cling? Can I ask where you got it? 🥺 It's gorg!

Be aware

I love coming to #bsky and seeing Izzy love instead of hate, my people ❤

This society, specifically this country, no longer values art, and they especially do not value artists. And the result of that will be that soon we will live in a gray, colorless, joyless, emotionless, world without any real expression.

A lot of us are needing to be trained in/learn jobs we are not passionate about to subsidize the things we're actually interested in. Let's put this in perspective. I am aiming to TRAIN and PAY to get a job that I do not want to be able to achieve the one I actually do.

My next step is finding a completely unrelated but reliable field (I think I'm leaning towards medicinal maryjane because it's currently one of the largest growing industries in the country). HOWEVER, this is becoming the struggle for a lot of creatives as of late, especially with AI in the mix.

Name me three GOOD animated shows in the last two years. Like genuinely new, good, animated shows. I can't find them and I'm an animation fiend (albeit slightly picky). Animation was BOOMING 10 years ago. This was my fallback. Now writers and animators are being laid off in droves.

What do you do when they tell you tell you to pick a fallback job as a writer/artist/performer/etc. and even the more mundane but semi-related job is becoming a dying art? When I was in school physical media was huge, especially animation.

Screenwriting used to be my fallback because I've always been enamored by being in a writers room. Problem is I want to call the shots. I love having creative freedom, which, out of the editorial phase, writing novels mostly provides. Being in a writers room does not.

Btw if any of you are fucking LOVING this idea lmk. I might post the first couple of chapters on Wattpadd/Ao3/Some other gay fic app if there's some interest, feedback means everything. Yes I know novels are dying, let me live in delusion a bit longer.

I feel so bad for my partner sometimes because it could be 7:49 on a Thursday night and they'll come into the bedroom while I have a crazed, "I just discovered Pandora's box" look in my eyes and I just start word vomiting about potential gay dystopian vampire romance novel ideas. 😭

Okay #JerrySpinelli fans stand up. This was another one of my finds at the bookstore. It was the only Spinelli book they had, one of my favorites from childhood, and the tear in the cover!? Completely sold me. I lost so many of my Spinelli books during childhood. Glad to add one to my collection.

Even if it's used I would like to read them chronologically so I'll probably be searching for the paperback edition of IWTV. In the end I'd like to have a matching set of the novels (the broke man's solution until he can afford the hardback covers). I was still so stoked to find this today.

Mind you, they had A LOT of Anne Rice books. Unfortunately they did not have IWTV (this is a college town so I'm assuming this is probably a hot commodity considering they had a few other books from the vampire chronicles). Won't read TVL until I get a copy of IWTV first.

My partner suggested a used bookstore today, I had zero idea what kind of books they would have (we live in a very small city surrounded by rural areas if that gives you any indication of my expectations). Books were organized by last name A-Z. Looked for Rice just for shits and gigs. My find. 🥺

Man, I really gotta start posting on here more. Twitter is genuinely becoming even more of a cesspool than initially thought possible (thanks election results). What's good #ofmd #wwdits #iwtv #bluesky anyone looking for moots? I follow back! Check my pinned for interests. 🏴‍☠️

Edward Teach, Born on A Beach

One of my favourites! My first time doing a portrait of a person - Taika Waititi as Blackbeard from Our Flag Means Death. An incredible show!
