I’ve turned 35 today! The best present for an artist is their art reposted, and I’d be grateful for that too ) especially since I’m currently open for new opportunities :3

Big same.

Would anyone in the Seattle area who is going to Worldcon be interested in being A sided guide during convention? I am blind and I would love to meet my favorite author Leigh Bardugo! The catches I only found out about this last night and I don’t even know if I can get tickets still.

"Trans people existing does literally nothing negative to your lives you crybaby wimps.
Your life is getting harder and costlier because of the oligarchs, not trans people"

Hey so you don’t need to test if the new version of the lying, plagiarism bot is better or worse than the old plagiarism bot they’re all bad

I knew you were cool. 😎

a baby is screaming in a crowd of people while sitting in a stadium . Alt: A baby in a stadium audience clenching its widdle fists and appearing to scream "yeeaahhh!" with the caption "YESSSSS" across the bottom of the image.

New Battle Beast album in October? Heck yes.

My gums taste weird today.

Oh No, What is Jim Acosta Doing? The former CNN host "interviewed" an AI avatar of one of the Parkland shooting victims.

"Real journalism would mean examining why we're suddenly cool with making the dead into chatbots. Real journalism would ask hard questions about consent (the dead can't give it), about what happens when we normalize conversations with digital ghosts." www.readtpa.com/p/oh-no-what...

100% diggin' these vibes.

Apparently I have *finally* achieved peak hydration. The powerade tastes like bitter ass now, instead of delicious.

Happy Sunday @hollyanderson.bsky.social

Here's a lovely photo of a plethora of my fabric art creatures. They're on green fur with a galaxy print fabric in the background. There's a black cosmic moth with a gray face, twinkly red eyes, and a wide smile full of sharp teeth. She's covered with embroidered stars and planets of various sizes and colors. There's a watermelon ghost covered with embroidered pink flowers sitting on a pink wire chair. There's a watermelon ghost bag and a small homunculus sitting on a pink and green striped chair. There's a tooth creature with a wide open mouth and four orange eyes and lavender eyeshadow. There's a black phantom with a gray face and wisps of every color of the rainbow.

Hey Bluesky, could you help me spread the word about my Big Cartel shop? A sale or two would be a colossal help.

All of my creations are designed, hand-sewn, hand-embroidered by me. Each takes many hours to make.

Feeling like I should queue up Pacific Rim so the big fight at the end starts at 1am

Why? Oh, no reason. Just under a tsunami warning.

a sticker of a gravestone reading "ghostlight gravekeep ghoulboss" with a hand (with hot pink nails) bursting out of the ground in front of it.

a sticker of a heart with ruffles around it & text inside reading "too sexy to use chatgpt"

This is great and true for all types of publishing: small press, big 5, self/indie, whatevs. Because of GRRM I hear so many readers say "pfft I won't read series until they're finished." There are so many good series out there and it's wrong to take out Winds of Winter blues on the rest of us.

CEO Brags That He Gets "Extremely Excited" Firing People and Replacing Them With AI A CEO who advises other CEOs on how to use AI to replace human jobs doesn't seem to be possessing a whole lotta guilt — or self-awareness.

Remember when the nation came together as one to cheer and celebrate when a CEO was gunned down in the street?
I just remembered that joyful day for some reason.

I have acquired a ticket to view a certain number of excellent individuals on a very large screen.

These are the deep questions we, as a society, should be asking.

a cartoon of a chef with a needle in his mouth is playing at 4:32 Alt: A cartoon chef making the "chef's kiss" gesture.

That is such a cool touch.

My feet hurt *so much* RN.

Another loss that stings. RIP to a true legend.

A massive serving of guacamole heaped on top of a bowl of tortilla chips at La Puerta on 4th street in San Diego.

Had this prodigious bowl of guacamole and chips at La Puerta in the Gaslamp last night.

Like Durin’s Dwarves, I dug too greedily and too deep. 🫩

Checked out of the hotel, got the car into the convention center garage before THE MAN closed Harbor St and was first in the door at my fave breakfast place when they opened at 7. The final day of #SDCC is going off like a well-oiled machine.

Well, except for the diarrhea, I guess.

That would be “Life During Wartime.”

And it just keeps getting more relevant by the day.

Nice. 🤜🤛

I dropped a poster tube in the #sdcc exhibit hall trying to get a signature. The poster inside has 2 dozen autographs collected at events in multiple states and countries. The tube has a name and address on it, it’s easy to id; but I’m devastated, I feel like such an idiot. #sdcclostandfound
