hi, cis folks in california!

this headline leaves out that newsom has another 5 days to sign these bills into law. if you’d like to tell him he should do that to protect trans californians, you should to reach out.

he also has a phone: (916) 445-2841

want to know what to say? next post! 🧵

i believe in games as a storytelling medium and that's why i need the stories to aim higher than "pretty good if you haven't read a book"

it's fun as hell, but sometimes it's just a little tiresome. I know, why reinvent the wheel? Yada yada. But it just feels like no one is even trying anymore. There’s a difference between referencing and reskinning. A good homage knows what it’s evoking and why—it builds something with that DNA.

somebody needs to talk to the director of Predator: Killer of Killers, because this blatant and almost non-derivative scene work is TEW much. Like, am I really this criminally online and media ensconced? There's a whole scene that is frame for frame part of the dog fight in pearl harbor, NO LIE.

Write for Your Best Readers Instead of Your Worst Readers A little plea to stop judging art by what the dullest take away

I did write a rant about this once countercraft.substack.com/p/write-for-...

BLESS. I’m happiest at my scrungiest. I hold this same sentiment too and try to strike a balance and it’s so hard to accomplish digitally (so far for me)

I am formerly rejecting "If you wrote this in a novel it'd be too on-the-nose". Going forward my characters will perform unambiguous symbology, read lines devoid of subtly, whilst a big flashing sign over the stage reads THIS IS ALL REALLY HAPPENING RIGHT NOW YOU FUCKS.

Sorry I’ve been so quiet on this side of things. Life shit. Health shit, online drama shit, and my senior pup all took a dive while also dealing with Amerikkka. The good news is no breast cancer at least. Will try to be updating and posting my art again when I can as I continue writing my longfic. 💖

Sorry I caught the blorbonic plague and now my sanity is rapidy declining (as well as my ability to draw anything else but Repression the character)

I'm so sad I missed this on my dash when you posted!! BLESS YOU GLORI. Ough I am clutching my heart.

I love this so much!!!

Losing my mind!!!! She looks SO amazing!!!!

somewhere off screen is her handsome lil irishman fighting for his life 😌

did you enjoy creating it? did you have fun? does it make you happy thinking about it and sharing it? then that's it. you did it. you found the secret sauce. "was that a waste of time?" of course not, fuckface. expressing yourself creatively is always worthwhile. you're doing great

Steve was telling me that the reason they stopped doing the great ape etc was Toriyama was tired of drawing tails 😂 I love them. Nappa looks gr8.

🥹 tysm!! I’m hyper critical of my work haha but I’m getting there

Alt start mods for the win!! I like doing the synth start in far harbor mod. For main play I decided to turn Shaun/Father into a whole exploration of George’s pre war trauma and miscarriages because why not. A little more angst as a treat.

if i ever draw a crunchy older man and do not give him a truly large chin situation then inform my family, for i have been kidnapped and replaced as some sort of nefarious scheme

warmup doodle from tonight

A digital illustration in a noir-inspired, textured monochrome style. A woman with dark, arched eyebrows and piercing eyes gazes coolly at the viewer, holding a cigarette between her fingers. Shadows and light play dramatically across her face, emphasizing her sharp features. She wears a structured, oversized suit jacket, adding to the vintage aesthetic. The background is dark, with soft, slatted light filtering in, reminiscent of classic film noir lighting. The piece has a grainy, almost etched quality, enhancing its old-school, cinematic feel.

"Stop romanticizing toxic tropes in fiction"

Bro literally never heard of 'Romanticism' (1790 - c. 1850) and how it's a deliberate rejection of order, harmony, balance, and rationality and celebrates the irrational, personal, emotional, weird, occult, and monstrous by design, how embarrassing 😞

seriously your brush stroke and line work is making me a lil nuts i loveee

Got my first "Violating an Executive Order" and "I'll make sure you lose federal funding" parent threat today for teaching "DEI" books in our upcoming "Liberty and Justice" themed unit. Even in "Blue" Massachusetts we're dealing with this.

Anyway, don't obey in advance, and don't obey later.
