if they were courageous they would quit. there's nothing brave about killing kids at the whim of an irrational old pedophile

Long live 2D animation (& practical effects).

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

A naiad underwater serenely stands in the water weeds and feels the water currents. She is transparent, and her hair looks similar to the water currents.

I don't think I ever posted this one here. Feel & Flow.

there are a lot of people working in the government right now who want to intentionally trigger an apocalypse to create the conditions for the return of jesus christ and I know how crazy that sounds but its absolutely true

Good news on the front for Fantasy and Science Fiction Narrative Art. A new museum in the works for Altoona and the genre community. Looking forward to seeing this open next year (hopefully)!

Sea Witch Inktober

The Sea Witch.

After sexual violence, it's victims who get punished the most. Victims who lose their jobs and have to leave their industries. Victims who lose their friends and support systems. Victims who lose their health and sanity. Perpetrators might lie low, sometimes, before being handed it all back.

'Unseelie Mushroom Fae' illustration for Olde Fae Card Game, made with ink and watercolor. A fae that looks like a fly agaric mushroom is rising from the ground, casting a spell. There are tall grasses and mushrooms and swirling magical energy all around. Her face looks stern and pitiless as she curses you for disturbing her mushroom patch.

'Sylph', made with watercolor, colored pencil, and white ink. A wise, airy fae flying through a purple moonlit sky with a spirit owl and a lot of green moths. They look ephemeral, and appear to be unraveling as they move through the sky, in a surreal way. There is a spiral pattern in the sky, and in her hair.

Ink and watercolor art of a mermaid underwater with dark hair, green scales, ear fins, and bright green eyes.

Art of Naiad & Dryad lovers standing waist deep in a lily pond, holding hands. Watercolor & colored pencil.

Hackers Expose Age-Verification Software Powering Surveillance Web Three hacktivists tried to find a workaround to Discord’s age-verification software. Instead, they found its frontend exposed to the open internet.

Oops. Turns out Persona, Discord’s age-verification service, was secretly screening selfies against government watchlists AND accessible by the feds. It's backed by Peter Thiel.

“The state wants to see everything. The corporations want to see everything. And they've learned to work together.”

this is why the whole “oh, suffering creates great art” thing is bullshit

you know what’s conducive to art? a roof over your head and food on the table

you know what isn’t? stressing out over where the fuck the rent money is going to come from

A sky blue dragon curled around a baby dragon colored like the trans pride flag. The text reads "protect trans kids".

Protect Trans Kids. Full stop. No "buts". Trans youth deserve safety in living authentically, with access to the tools and care that they need to thrive. Trans kids deserve to grow up to be happy adults. Do your part. Protect Trans Youth. 🏳️‍⚧️

Cover art for Ashling by Isobel Carmody: an oil painting of a teenage girl riding a black horse against an abstract red background. Her red shirt echoes the color of the background, while her black hair blends into the horse's flowing mane.

Wishing everybody a very happy and prosperous Year of the Horse!
