This is rad, thanks for introducing me to this guy.

What are everyone's alternatives to Adobe products? I like the old Affinity suite but I'm suspicious now that they were gobbled up by Canva.

That's awesome. Any similar options that work with Android?

Reps and Dems were pretty bipartisan over the previous 20 years re: letting companies grow to monopolistic scale without interference. The Biden administration was the first to start reigning them in this century, and so tech kingpins switched sides and paid to sit on the inauguration stage.

It would be fun if they did a Superman/Lex Luthor crossover.

For years I've wanted a cozy courtyard, and have been sad that they basically don't exist in the US.

I use Namecheap and Hostgator. They both have super bare-bones hosting options where you can just upload your own html if you want. They also have more convenient 1-click app"based options that are more prominently advertised, but old school is available for pretty cheap.

Thanks! That place was crazy with contradictions. Lush nature growing up wild inside a massive concrete canyon.

Post a picture YOU took, no description.

A little bit of heavy industrial #reference for you with a bit of animation to go along with it. I push that you should add movement to your work to and that goes for environment stuff and this is big enough I feel it passes into that side of art.

Does "ship art" mean spaceships or is there an official source for non-canonical romance illustrations between every combination of major characters from the show? I've followed @brittajj26.bsky.social in either case.

We may not know their name, but we know something about them. I think it's clear that this is a self portrait!

He's never built anything in his life. He paid (or often decided not to pay) other people to build stuff.

Happy Hogswatch to all who celebrate. Ho! Ho! Ho!

When I saw this, I immediately knew how you had done it. Then I watched it loop a few times and was completely baffled again. I get front-to-back, but side-to-side ALSO?! Everything to arrange the second viewpoint would wreck the first viewpoint.

They built bridges like this because canal barges were pulled by pack animals on the towpath, and this design allowed them to cross the canal and keep going in the same direction without needing to disconnect the tow lines.

So now it's named after two rapists

Beautiful work! I hadn't heard of Fisk coffins before and it's the best Internet rabbit hole I've fallen down in months. I found a PBS documentary about one that was dug up in a construction site in NYC with a wonderfully preserved smallpox mummy inside: www.pbs.org/video/woman-...

What's the distinction between a reproduction and a replica?

Thanks! Technically cheating because it's the first skull I posted, but I wanted to show off the rest of the costume

And this photo I've never even published because the exposure is so bad. All three photos from abandoned nuclear reactor sites.

Waxing Crescent The geometry and plays of light created by the vast curves of this structure deserve better documentation than I and my measly camera can provide. Spider Valley Nuclear Reactor Cooling Tower

And I am even more astounded when looking at the rest of the Lumen series, Because there are more echoes between our work. www.flickr.com/photos/avius...

It's astounding. When I saw your painting in my feed, at first I thought maybe you had been there, or seen photos online that inspired you. But I read about your work and learned that your Lumen paintings are from 1997, long before the reactor site I photographed had been accessible.

What's better, posting a link to Flickr or posting the photo directly? I could go either way.
