I was at a queer bookfair last weekend, first to represent our local queer association then the second day as a vendor, and I didn't draw that much but there was: this doggie
Things I was frightened of as a child: The knot in a step of the staircase to my bedroom that looked like an eye Footbridges with no guardrail The long-legged spiders in the bathroom That one point and click pc game my mom loved (Black Mirror 2003) The shadows and deaths in Heart of Darkness (1998)
Things I was frightened of as a child: The x files theme song also Beethoven's toccata and fugue in D minor Safety awareness video of a man getting hit by a car Real human skull in my dad's study and the glass eyes that he put into its empty sockets
Struggling between "if i put more effort into my social media perhaps my art would reach more people" and "if i put more effort in and i don't get any results i might pull the plus this time"
Finished this commission last month or so - struggled with it a bit, not even because of technical difficulties, I was just intimidated by all those lines LMAO really happy with the result though
Me every once in a while: I should post more on Bluesky (doesn't do it) Anyway here are some more gay breton ladies 💙
Summer is over you know what that means (i need a new tattoo)
We know, you already saw the cover earlier. But we want to be sure you really appreciated the gorgeous work of @kalgalen.bsky.social, who brought this to life.
I've just listened to the playlist of remixes around 10 times in a row while finishing a commission,, i am not usually a lo-fi girlie(gn) but damn if it didn't make me lock in 😌
We’re happy to announce our fun little collaboration with Virtual Cottage 2 🏠 You can now listen to 7 lo-fi remixes of existing Against the Storm tracks in Virtual Cottage 2, and decorate your virtual study with items inspired by the game. Learn more: store.steampowered.com/news/app/133...
The covers for my Knightingale fic chapters will look so good together once I have more than 2. but for that I need to write more fic :////
Commission done in January - the client asked for 2 of their DM's NPCs as an anniversary gift 🎀
CR4 best season to throw characters at each other full speed and see if it sticks #criticalrole #art

No one asked if Abel had bad vibes. Perhaps Cain was justified actually #criticalrole
I'm on a long weekend until next Monday and I'm away on Saturday and Sunday but ☝️ i could spend tomorrow making myself a nice pj set while watching pm. Kinda wanted to start today but i am so so tired so perhaps i will take a nap for now and maybe do some midnight sewing later
Downside of my 7h straight of pattern drafting from yesterday is that I'm caught up on Critical Role Upside is that that means i can watch some more Private Nightmares guilt free :) (IF i can bring myself to start that episode again. Shit was going down last i was there)
Doing the hardware store calculations for how many bags of dirt I need to cover myself up and never be seen again.
There are so many projects i want to undertake so of course I'm choosing to keep lying in bed considering a short nap 😪
if you're not ready to cry with the BIG DAWGS stay the fuck out of our healing circle
This is what I point to when folks try to justify genAI. "It's not so bad as long as they don't sell it." Meanwhile, these data centers are swallowing up resources, ruining local water infrastructure, & not really caring. All for plagiarized slop. It's gross. Every use counts. Every single one.
“officials discovered two industrial-scale water hookups feeding a data center campus located 20 miles south of downtown Atlanta. One water connection had been installed without the utility’s knowledge, and the other was not linked to the company’s account and therefore wasn’t being billed.”

Impulsion bi-mensuelle de me ré-écouter la saison 1 de Reflets d'Acide 🙏 (ça serait rigolo de voir d'à quel point je m'en souviens part cœur)
lrp Funny story about my experience with O Brother Where Art Thou, I first watched it during a family movie night some time back when I was in middle school and quite liked it but deffo did NOT understand it as an Odyssey retelling.
It's absolutely disgusting that hanging out with your art friends who make incredible things makes you want to pick up your paintbrush again. How fucking dare.
