i struggle with a brain that wants to stiffly copy whatever reference i'm using and one thing i've found helpful:
1. draw big blocky shapes over the reference
2. turn off ref and redraw big blocky shapes
3. draw in figure with big blocky shapes overlaid

UNTIL ITโ€™S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trumpโ€™s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Someone's screenshot of a two-post twitter thread, from user blue (@bluewmist):

the fastest way to kill motivation is to make your identity depend on the outcome. it's called ego involvement. when failing becomes failing as a person, your brain starts avoiding the whole thing. not because you don't care, but because you care too much.

you don't need lower standards. you need less self-worth tangled up in your goals. the work gets easier when it's not about proving who you are.

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

Finally: AI cannot do your job, but an AI salesman can 100% convince your boss to fire you and replace you with an AI that can't do your job, and when the bubble bursts, the money-hemorrhaging "foundation models" will be shut off and we'll lose the AI that can't do your job, and you will be long gone, retrained or retired or "discouraged" and out of the labor market, and no one will do your job.
AI is the asbestos we are shoveling into the walls of our society and our descendants will be digging it out for generations:

Hey friends

I'm in a tight spot right now. I don't get paid until the 10th and I have just $12.67 for that entire stretch of time. My car and my cat have been eating up my expenses. Anything helps.

Oh so sorry I was under the impression that a social media platform needs a userbase to function as a social media platform, but I guess we could all just close our accounts and bluesky would be just fine

Fun fact: deaths due to overdoses of all kinds massively decreased after it became required to write prescriptions more unambiguously, numbers spelled out, etc. Making it harder for mistakes to happen in between prescribing and receiving the prescription, saved countless lives.
