I will never forgive apple for removing the 3.5mm headphone jack and then somehow it became normalized and so many big companies followed after

Going in to 2025, its important that you *actually own* the queer and trans literature you consume. That's why for ebooks you should always look for DRM-free storefronts like Itch, or an author/publisher's website, where you can buy a downloadable .epub you can read anywhere, and is yours forever

Everyone saying "make weird art!" you better fucking mean it. There better not be an unspoken "but not too weird" tacked on at the end.

If you want to export your OC Playlists to .CSV (text spreadsheet) documents, use exportify.app

For all my fellow #OCsky OC Playlist goofballs out there

Creativity is like a houseplant, not an endless well. You need to seek out sunlight, water, and nutrients in art, shows, music, experiences, and more to tend to it. And just like plants it has its dormant and active periods and you may not seem improvement for some time.

Finally watched Solo Leveling.
It's everything I wanted SAO to be.
Rad as hell.

Holy shit, they full-on wanted to show the world my personal address and email. Very important if you run a small business out of your own home!!

I used to work for an elected official as the person who answered their emails. I can tell you from personal experience, if even twenty or thirty people all call an official in a day, they start panicking. This stuff does help.

These illustrations actually started my career as a book cover artist, haha 😄

Seems like a good time to point out that you can download from the library of congress, and it would be worthwhile to download probably as much as you can while you can

How about some more old art!

Some of my original Trevor Belmont concept art for Castlevania, when I finally figured out what I wanted to do with him.

Reminder- using reference for art is NOT cheating. Depending on what type of artist you are, you should absolutely be using it. All highly skilled pro artists I know use it.

Art isn't a party trick, we don't have to be in the business of impressing ppl with the process. Don't hold yourself back.

Thank you for your service. o7

I give you “Catitude”

Source: reddit, user: denise1025 A very alien white mushroom strands surrounded by green underbrush and mossy trees. The mushroom is white and almost like a triangle on a stem. On its underside, there are "teeth"-like projections. On its top, it is flat white, except there are beads of red droplets like blood.

Day 21 of posting cool mushrooms every day:

The Bleeding Tooth fungus (Hydnellum peckii) has both teeth on its underside and "blood" on its top!

The "blood" is extracellular fluid, which is squeezed out when the fungus absorbs water, increasing pressure until the red fluid is squeezed out!

pushed the nice button to mass block some folks with everything around "pro⛴️ DNI" shit in their bios bc i don't want unruly children near my account and it feels good! Thank you challahchic!! bsky.app/profile/chal...

Megumi baby of the group, I will not take criticism

The Chinese Queen of Cottagecore Has Suddenly Reappeared After Three Years After quietly settling a dispute with her management agency, the massively popular Chinese influencer Li Ziqi has started posting again, gaining her millions of new followers overnight.

3 videos, 15 million views on YouTube, 7 million (!) new followers on Douyin, all within 1 day—it's Li Ziqi's world and we are just living in it.

Ohayou Bluesky. It’s cloudy here. Let me tell you about another trend among Japanese artists. They're moving to Xfolio from pixiv nowadays. Xfolio clearly says they ban all of genAI images, while pixiv is pro-AI. Many AIbros have tried to spam Xfolio, but they have been swept off into the dustbox.

While I'm here, I've noticed you twitter exodus dingdongs are quote-dunking on the right wing shitheads who've migrated here as well. STOP DOING THAT. Block 'em and starve 'em. That's how we do it here. Don't make this place suck! I'm blocking dunkers and their subjects on sight.

Look at you!

continues to be the smartest thing I ever said

The hands that once wielded a sword with deadly precision now trembled as they fumbled to unbutton Glenn’s clothes. The unattainable beauty from those glossy posters was now laden with too much vulgar lust.
This lust brought Sephiroth closer, yet also diminished him.
