YouTube video by Drew Gooden Greed is Destroying the World

Hot dang this video essay hits hard, is well researched, and aligns so well with what I think ails this world.

I feel that now, more than ever, solidarity of the 99% will truly be one of the few things that can fix this absolute mess of a techno feudal-ish world.

Mega worth the watch:

oh make no mistake, I'm still chained to my desk too!! I've done the leaving it all to the last second thing before and it has never ended well!

Everything I'm working on right now isn't due until early January, so I shed a similar single tear as I closed my 2025 master to-do list and opened a 2026 one. I like to collect those single tears in vials though, and crystalize them to do witchy rituals with to help counteract the passage of time.

Out June 2026!

I like to see the arks flying across the sky at dusk; they look like big clouds stretching from one end of the sky to the other.

My mom, also an artist, drew me pictures to color when coloring books didn’t quite have what I was looking for. One day — I must have been 3, 4? — I vividly remember suddenly understanding that she was making pictures with her hands, and that was all I ever wanted to do after.

My second piece for the new Forgotten Realms books!

AD: Emi Tanji

sketch-like digital painting made in heavypaint with lasso brush. it depicts the korok forest in mostly brown and yellow colours, highly inspired by how it looks in tloz botw. there are some korok shadows, the glowing pea plants pods decorations, glowing fireflies and a lot of greenery. there’s the master sword on its pedestal in the middle of the picture, also glowing, and link himself standing close to it, like he didn’t expect to stumble upon it.

ya-ha-ha

Yeah. We’ve had the mother of all colds work its way through us one by one. Weeks of coughing and fever and awful horrible. Got both kids, then me, then my wife. Death. Sadness. Pain. Darkness. Four weeks of coughing. Somehow not Covid or the flu. It’s like lovecraftian

A four frame comic about Captain Torture. The first frame shows the sign "BREAKING NEWS" and the drawing of a man, with the words "CAPTAIN TORTURES PASSES AWAY" near him. The second frame shows a journalist holding a mic, as she says "A controversial and divisive figure, Captain torture will be remembered for his key role in history." The News title is "Mourning day for Captain-". The third frame shows three posts on social media. The first one is by a man called Paul James @Paulitician. He writes: "I didn't always agree with Captain Torture but he sure was a man who believed in something." The second post by James Paul @Avegetable reads: "I pay my respects to Captain Torture and his family. His heart was in the right place- with our country." The third post is by SonicVomit @SonicBleh , and reads "HE TORTURED PEOPLE". The fourth frame shows an interview on TV. An angry man on the right is saying: "Let me tell you something, Jen. I think it's SICK to celebrate Captain Torture's death. These people should be LOCKED UP, and also tortured-". The news below says: "Every president on earth pays homage-".

Captain Torture

I feel like this is what you do though, in a game where the final boss fight is a total joke. You're in it for genuine love of the plot, not the game difficulty

BEYOND stunning. All that work on the tiles!!!! A feast for the eyes!!! Patterns!!!! So many beautiful patterns!!!!

😂 easily one of the most cursed meals I've ever had, haha. And it was completely unpreventable too -- there was absolutely no reason to expect that was going to happen. I think the entire experience was an act of god to humble us all

go to Atlanta, they told me, the food there is great, they told me....

Illustrated cover of a blonde girl in a plaid school uniform looking out from a gothic window surrounded by fall ivy foliage. Reflected in the squares of the window are two boys faces, one blonde, one black haired with glasses.

Cover for Celine Leonora's "A Lesson in Murder," published by Arena-Verlag. This was my first time working with a German publishing company and they were so polite, and efficient, and respectful 🥲 13/10 client.

still recovering and reflecting after a truly wonderful MagicCon. I am so grateful to all the people who came to my booth and bought my work and had me sign many many Into the Flood Maws, and to all my fellow artists who made me feel welcome and like I belonged. I love making art for this game!

Please help find Jo’s stolen card!! Some jerk walked off with this!
