When my family (and most adults) constantly called me weird, and too sensitive, and a freak. Eventually I embraced my weirdness, but not them.

QUESTION OF THE DAY: This sounds like a joke question, but it isn’t. If it doesn’t apply to you, fine. But it’s a serious question with different levels of meaning. And I am genuinely curious. When did you first realize you were weird?

Happy #FanArtFriday everyone! And remember, "If every pork chop were perfect, we wouldn't have hot dogs!" 🌭🌹 #FanArt #StevenUniverse #PinkDiamond #RoseQuartz

So apparently I love coloring #Transformers drawn by @nickroche.bsky.social I had to give this one a little extra color oomph because Keith Wreck-Gardz deserved it, he's such a hot mess

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:

Original art by @edpirrie.bsky.social Colors by me. This is a counter part to the Megatron piece, both of which were commissioned by someone.

Original art by @nickroche.bsky.social (again). Colors by me. I hadn't looked at the colored piece posted in his shop before I colored this, what a difference lol

Original by @nickroche.bsky.social Colors by me

I'll be posting Nothing but coloring from here on out. I'll do my best to tag the artist of the original piece, but if I don't and you're the artist, or you know them, please comment so that they get the proper credit that they deserve.

If I was Willy Wonka I'd invite politicians instead of kids.

Professional creatives,"I'll figure it out." The job I'm applying for,"we want you to have a degree, know exactly what you're doing at all times, never fuck up, read my mind, work hard to make me rich(er), be able to explain every second of every day, put up with my tantrums, and bow to authority."

Predictive text doesn't mean that your phone understands you. The vocabulary that we use to interact outside of our own minds is limited and that deeper meaning comes from mutual experience and deeper understanding, not from the sounds that our meat makes when it slaps wetly around an orifice.

Publix always swore that they wouldn't start a club, then they started a club, but the club is "spend $300 and we'll give you a few cents off a $100 purchase, start earning today!" (exaggerating because my heritage requires it)

Florida unemployment website won't let you sign in, and when you call the phone directory will transfer you to the wrong department and you have to try again. But even when you follow the correct prompts it sends you to the wrong dept, interesting.

"What's dating like as a single dad?" a fellow parent asked me. "I don't," I said. "Too weird. Too stupid." We are in such a weird place as a society. Online dating turned out to be a fishing expedition in a desert. IRL is like wandering the asylum trying to find the least insane.

Niche post but: Blumineck also has a series of archery reference photos available for purchase which are very useful for artists who want to draw characters with bows

Blumineck lo ha vuelto a hacer 🥹 le aplaudo hasta que se me caigan las manos, bravo. "Be masculine, be feminine, be neither, or be both. But be kind."

Picard management tip: Know who you really are and what really matters to you. Then let the crew know.

Well... can't afford rent, car insurance, food, internet, nothing. Haven't been able to find any kind of part time or full time work. I am at a total loss, and I'm two inches from losing it. Just I figured I'd yell into the void before I sleep.

Went to open house at my kids school, 1st class was PE. They did a Pledge of Allegiance on the squealing speakers, and since they didn't have a flag they had to pledge to the old faded Pepsi icon on the score board. Just like in high school, I didn't stand or pledge to Pepsi.

To say "the ends justify the means" would suggest that there's a definite end. Life goes on, we keep moving forward, so there is no end, there is only the means. And when your means is hate, vitriol, and violence then you perpetuate those paths and you never get to whatever ends you had in mind.

Hey, let me follow you so that I can immediately try to sell you something. Nope. WTF is social media right now? Am I missing the point?

New Transformers comic by me!

I don't think my Nintendo 64 was sending all of my personal information to data centers that were so loud neighbors couldn't sleep and poisoned water for miles around. My N64 just did its job, and made me so happy. Right now... I'm not happy. I'm stressed, and angry, and tired, and numb.

SHOUT-OUT to Political Cartoonist extraordinaire & Member of the Order of Canada Michael de Adder, who routinely does a far better job of holding this administration accountable than the corporate media. Thank you for your attention to his brilliant satirical wit! 🙏 (also: 🤣)

Rest in peace, Mr. Cullen 🕊️ #Maccadam
