Hi, doing this to an artist is FOUL. We’re fighting so hard against people ripping off our writing to train AI, the very LEAST we can do is protect other creative folk.
This is appalling and if you do it you are a scab and a thief.

When in doubt, sketch a dragon in a very small sketchbook. It’s storming outside. 🐉
It’s interesting that other microblogging platforms I could name are absolutely bursting with news of impending nuclear Armageddon, should democrats win the House and possibly the Senate. It was effective last night, when I lost sleep over it.
Right now, right this moment in time given how difficult the world is becoming more and more each day to live in. Funding the arts and supporting it no matter what it is is probably the best lifeline that we have right now to pull on, without the arts we're fucked.
If you want more Patrick Stewarts, then you publicly fund the arts and learning programs, so that working class kids can find their way into making a career in them.
My proudest achievements this year, bar none! 🤍
Not one, but TWO from this year. I got to create both of these Transformers/He-Man crossover pieces with the legendary @artistdaniela.bsky.social & getting to work with her was on my to-do list for some time. I'm really proud of these as I am working with an artist as talented as Dani.

This little monster gave us quite the scare, last night. $133 later, he’s just fine and back home to his mom. We won’t be dog-sitting again, very soon.
Hey, have you bought my poetry collection yet?
Have YOU snagged my witchy, tarot-filled, myth/fairytale-laden poetry collection, Offerings for Ordinary Gods? www.alitrotta.com/recent-works @vmspod.bsky.social podcast: chimeraobscura.com/vm/episode-6... @scalzi.com post: whatever.scalzi.com/2026/07/21/t... @reactorsff.bsky.social review:
I never wanted to marry, even if I’ve had enough proposals. But if I ever did, and the groom pulled that cake-on-my-face crap at the reception, it’d be an immediate annulment & I’d never want to see him again. Bet.
RIP Spanish artist Sanjulián (Manuel Pérez Clemente) who has left us at the age of 85.
Getting two separate skin areas cut off my body bc of cancerous biopsies is actually the “free” spot in my bingo card, this year. I’m not shocked at all. The only thing that saves 2026 is an unmistakable Blue Tsunami in the midterms.
Looooove when out of absolutely NOWHERE the work environment becomes hostile. Like wtf, please don't take your miserable life out on me. I already hate it here.
The cars I've drawn so far. I've got a couple more I want to do but I'm really enjoying vehicular studies & it's something I should have done years ago but looking at the different varieties of how they are designed makes drawing them a real challenge.
JUST IN: Senate Republicans are backing Trump’s war despite your skyrocketing gas prices. Remember that in November. #BlueWaveIn40Days
I want to love CRIMSON PEAK. It’s an aesthetically stunning movie, the effects & performances are beautiful and macabre, the music, I love everything else GDT. But I can’t get past the inc3st, I just can’t, and I realize that’s the greatest horror in this gothic horror romance, but just. Gah. Nope.
Art bestie. If you’re not already, give the amazing Sami a follow. Talented, funny, principled and such a layered and interesting individual!
Which art are you proud of? Both of these. Collaborating with an artist like @artistdaniela.bsky.social really helped make these pieces what they are and it's the best thing to come out of this year.
Thank you for inviting me to collab on these, Sami! It was so much fun seeing them come together! 🙏🤍
2026 has been a pretty solid year for both Transformers and He-Man. Working with an amazing artist like @artistdaniela.bsky.social on these collaboration pieces was a lot of fun, she's an absolute trooper of an artist to work with.
Because the last Transformers/MOTU crossover piece worked out rather well, I did another one. Megatron & Skeletor - A collaboration between myself & friend fellow artist @artistdaniela.bsky.social. #Transformers #Maccadam #MOTU
