A painted blow sky with clouds on a basement wall. It is clearly a work in progress with places taped off and places unpainted.

So... My body can't do intense work for more than half an hour ish on good days, so this took about 5 different sessions.
It's frustrating that I can't follow my focus. It's frustrating to put down the paint brush when I 'could keep going.'
Gunna do it anyway.

Getting prints made at Kinko's.
"Do I have your concent to see smut art I need scanned?"
"...wot?"

Now they're all staring at them trying to get the contrast right. It's an 'interesting' day for these poor folks.

Two crayon drawings, one with a "lofi study beats" person with blue hair, a shaved side, and a green oversized sweater on. There's an Oddish and togepi egg in the background. The other is a red/pink/purple flower.

Just a little crayon wip. Loving my favorite underrated material.

The Senate Passed The TAKE IT DOWN Act, Threatening Free Expression and Due Process Earlier this month, the Senate passed the TAKE IT DOWN Act (S. 146), by a voice vote. The bill is meant to speed up the removal of non-consensual intimate imagery, or NCII, including videos that imita...

@amyklobuchar.com I’ve been unkind in past. I’d like to be positive and helpful.
Can you explain what will keep The Take It Down Act from being abused to hurt the American populace?
Blanket, automatic takedown mandates seem like a weapon for The GOP to silence dissenting voices and oppressed groups.

The banana ball python from the previous picture has now nosed its way into and through a hand holding an apple pencil and it's now staring at the screen, envisioning their new career as a snake artist.

Update: nevermind.

A very pitiful looking gaze from a banana ball python stares deep into the camera.

✨Did You Know?✨
If you try to get up and get to bed, some snakes will turn to you, look you dead in the eye, and make the same pitiful look of "Can you possibly disturb this sweet face?" that dogs and cats make?
On an unrelated note, I will be doing art from Right Here.

A digital art portrait of Jarl Aesa from the MN Renaissance Festival, with greying red hair, an orange sash, blue under clothes, a brown vest duster, and a sword over her shoulder.

@anj-olsen.bsky.social, I’ve been inspired by you, cared for by you, and loved on by you. I hope I can do the same for you in time. Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for me. Your coin is next to the bed and will always be a part of my journey. ❤

A basic sketch of a woman on her phone, another pair of hands on a phone, and a foot in a striped sock.

Daily drawings are doing a lot for me figuring out my style. I can see it solidifying as I go. Further up and further in.

Working on quick figures. Hoping to do some live drawing and painting in the near future! 🎨

Day 25 (1,436 remain)

Loving each other isn’t just ‘something nice to do’, or ‘a sweet thing to teach children’, it’s imperative.

Survival of the Fittest isn’t limited to running and lifting. Empathy and compassion aren’t weaknesses, they allow us to work together. No one is as strong as everyone.

A picture of a video game still shot as a digital painting. There's many slabs of rock, some floating in the sky, all with sunrise light on them. There's a floating island with trees in the background, as well as a few clouds in the sky.

Can't sleep? Finish your Tears of the Kingdom piece! You absolutely won't regret being up all night and finishing your Tears of the Kingdom piece!
On a 'brighter' note, it's definitely been a study in light!

Two plates with steak, bacon wrapped scallops, and asparagus (the asparagus is in the shape of a heart). There is a wine bottle and candles in the background, but the table quality and background shows that it's a dinner at home.

Low energy day on our planned Valentine's celebration. I'm so glad they still took our 7:30 reservation. They even sat us early!

Current Tears of the Kingdom wip. Playing with light and glare. Can't do more than this right now, and that's gotta be ok.

Those turned out so cool!!

Tapestry scarves.
With many pockets/footnotes!

If only their team name weren't racist...

Yeah, I don't have celiacs, but it sure does still gunk up my system.

(also, I wish I could claim to be the first to do the mermaid analogy, but it's been around for a little while! Just wanted to be honest!)

Bahaha! For real. V8 for DAYS. I recently went gluten free too. Because of course gluten makes it worse. Of course it does.
But yeah! Thank you for following! I'm glad to connect with folks! ❣️

What does insomnia to the point of autonomic nervous system crash look like?
Well, pretty good... but still!

Pencil drawing of a curvey mermaid on beige toned paper. They have big hips, a big tail, and curly hair held up my a banana.

Having POTS is like being a mermaid: can't stand well on land, pressure changes are rough, and needs gallons of salt water.

For real! Blood pressure be like 🫠

Welcome to POTS! You felt 'ok,' had plans tonight, and you thought it was a good idea to take A Shower?
Oh that's cute.
Better cancel work too unless someone can literally wheel you in and out of the building.

So good!

Many people made their livelyhood alongside tiktok, especially for some small businesses that I know.

Considering how they said the cheeto 'fixed it' hours before even the inauguration happened, I think it's as useless as it would have been had it stayed off. Folks just have more time to switch.

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

Oof. Ok though, I kind of want the context though...
