here's another throwback from 2016 a private poster commission inspired by Moby Dick honestly still really love this one, both the concept and execution i worked on pre-inked scratchboard for this one (so fully black) instead of the usual white claybord that i ink myself 30x40cm

a black and white scratchboard illustration inspired by Mody Dick. It depicts a giant white whale about to collide with a whaling ship. The scene is viewed from a bird's eye view, high above the scene. Seagulls are seen orbiting around the scene. The ship and the whale create waves in the water that reinforce the tension between them.

I 100% have not changed a single goddamn thing about how I write here in the age of "AI." I write how I write. If the "AI" writes anything like how I write, it's because it stole from me. I'm gonna use any punctuation I like, and if it looks "AI"ish to you, you can go fuck yourself.

Authors and journalists are doing more first-person (hello 2010s blogging) and embracing "mistakes" in writing to prove they're not chatbots. There's even an “anti-Grammarly" app that leaves in typos and signs off "sent from my iPhone" to create more authenticity: www.wired.com/story/more-t...

Please consider picking something up from my payhip! You get a fun piece of horror erotica and I get paid straight away!

I get it if you want to read just romantasy stories with no grey areas, that's absolutely your right, but 'ick' and 'ethical' implies that there is something bad and wrong about wanting an romance story that pushes boundaries around certain elements in romance stories.

Some days, playing blue prince gives me nothing. Other days, I clear 11 boxes in the underground tunnel, collect 282 coin, and receive 3 mail letters and still am without the shop to buy a blue tent, any new clues, or cleared enough boxes. It's great. I love this game. lmao. lol. :)

"Whale Fall" An illustration for my Dishonored werewolf!AU setting, where the Outsider's marked are huge, void-powered wolves. I recently wrote up a new fic for the setting, and it has felt so good to return to that fandom creatively after so many years away.

Illustration by laur-rants, 2026. Depicts two huge black wolves hulking over a dead whale, which has a large cut in its side, with visible blubber and muscle showing. There is much blood in the water, as well as on the right wolf, who is looming over the death wound, claiming it as his own. Both werewolves have glowing eyes and scars, and marks on their left hand that burn with a turquoise/yellow light. The setting is from the video game Dishonored, with the two main characters, Corvo Attano and Daud, as huge werewolves.

I hope those load bearing followers know how much they mean to artists. Regulars, esp regular commenters that engage your work and story do not go without notice and are to be cherished. It's esp why I try to reply to let them know! (and why I wish I could keep track of any I've missed replying to )

Fun story and potential tip for artists: find a load boarding follower or two. When my account was brand new and less than 10 people knew I existed I had one follower who would like almost every piece I made. I appreciated his support so much that my partner knew his screenname- 🧵
