Love me some geometric Asura architecture.
Visually one of my favorite fractals, though gameplay-wise I think Thaumanova is my fav. What's yours?

Mike Johnson Says Americans Will Side With The GOP After Feeling ‘More Pain’ From The Shutdown "It's the most staggering level of gaslighting we have ever seen in American politics,” Johnson said of media outlets criticizing the GOP amid the shutdown.

The GOP will take away food for the poor, unless you let them take away your healthcare. And they think the solution to their unpopularity, is to inflict more pain, until we "cooperate".

Anyone wonder why they lost so badly last night ?

I can slowly feel my art block fading as I finally catch up on sleep again.

This painting is inspired by my road trip through Germany before arriving at my new home in Sweden. I loved the modern wind turbines juxtaposed against the old buildings.

How I Achieved Consistency With My Art I would like to preface this with the fact that I am just one person who happens to be an artist and make a living from it. This is just my experience and what I have done might not work for you, but…

Anyone out there struggling with finding an art style? I did for many years. I wrote a blog post about my journey to finding my current style, you might find it interesting or useful! buff.ly/8Eg23hF

Two humorous social media posts about cats believing their owners can control nature, like rain and sunlight. Transcribed Text: Feline_Tales My cats have this meow that means “please come with me to fix this” after which they’ll lead me to the problem in question, usually a empty (or ‘empty’) food bowl or a closed door they want open. They look at the ‘problem’, they look back at me, clear message. What fascinates me is how this illustrates what they percieve as being in the realm of my ‘power.’ I control the food, I control the door, sure, but my cats love to sit on the balcony in the sun, and it has happened plenty of times that on a rainy day they come get me, go to the balcony and show me... the rain. “Please fix this” they say. “Please get rid of the wet” “Silly kitty,” I say, “I can’t control the rain.” I then walk into the shower and turn on the rain. purrfect_logic I hope this is a universal cat owner experience. Every single night he begs me to turn the sun back on so he can watch birds on the balcony. I tell him no, I cannot do that. But I can turn lights on and off in the house and he’s fairly certain I’m just not applying myself properly here.

I’ve started a small project for autumn - choosing a few seasonal things as subjects to explore and celebrate as I try out some different techniques without feeling like anything needs to be perfect. I’ll be posting what I’ve made over the next few weeks, I hope you’ll enjoy seeing it 🍂🧡

rules about nighttime “quiet hours” where like it’s considered an offense to disturb people by being loud after 10 pm or whatever should extend through 10 am, and they only don’t because our society thinks anyone still in bed at 7:15 is a morally weak person

"But when the team looked at the employees’ actual work output, they found that the developers had completed tasks 20% slower when using AI than when working without it. Researchers were stunned. “No one expected that outcome. We didn’t even really consider a slowdown as a possibility.”

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

Well, you can finally cross “I’ve seen a handcuffed, inflatable penis” off your bucket list

Sweet dreams with Mini Uni

A pair of tuxedo cats with round yellow eyes sit side by side. One wears a yellow polka-dot collar, while the other looks straight ahead with a curious expression.
