a white orb covered in black speckles and spots rests on a dark sofa cushion. the left side is a dalmatian’s face, tucked in toward her haunches with her thin tail wrapped up to hug her face. she is looking at the camera with one sleepy brown eye.

This is Koyuki. Please do not disturb her. She's in ice cream scoop mode right now. Needs to focus. 12/10 (IG: fuji_bull)

A digital color illustration of two human figures facing away from the viewer, standing on a cliffside overlooking a large forest below them. Beyond the forest are darker mountains and the ocean. Beside the figures is a tall twisting tree, with pale butterflies dancing around it. Next to the figures are two dogs, also staring in the same direction, as white swathes of mist and fog encircle the small family.

Phone edits. Really happy with this. I was thinking about how I haven't had much gosling blep content this year so I was focused on them foraging but I can't say no to a good napping baby bird!

A digital illustration of two people holding hands (actually dancing but it's not clear in the painting). One hand is pale and blueish, with long dark claws. The other hand is more human-like and veiny, with some deep scars further down the arm. There's also a frame made of gnarly branches, with the image of a crow, a snake and the crescent moon engraved in the wood.

A little something something for yet another personal project (and because... hands!) πŸ’œ

Calling AI "slop" has been one of the most effective instances of the public rebranding a product and it pisses them off.

A robot in the form of an axolotl, the neotenic mole salamander species, specifically one of the domestic breeds which tends to be very pale in colouration with contrasting eyes and a wide, upturned mouth resembling a human smile. In other words, the ones that look like smol robots. It has three frond-like gills on each side of its ovoid head, a longish body with a tail that has both an upper and lower ridged fin, and banded arms and legs ending in jointed claws. A couple of air bubbles are drifting above it as it floats.

Pretty thrilled with how this commission came out. I'm slowly changing the way I color and I think it's going in a good direction.

Weird that more than one person interprets β€œdon’t dehumanize” to mean β€œdon’t hold responsible” and β€œdon’t demand accountabilityβ€œ

Is dehumanization responsibility and accountability? Are there people who really believe that?

Actually yes I am saying that you shouldn’t dehumanize anyone

I genuinely think the worst thing the internet did to reading was convince people that finishing books is a competitive sport. You don't need to read 52 books a year. You just need to read. Books you like. At your own pace. And think about them for longer than a TikTok video.
