Drew at an open art studio for the first time. It also happened to be during a weekly event. It was great to draw there but my socially anxious brain is buzzing. I like what I painted tho! Wins all a round!

Your thoughts needed: What emotion does this describe to you?
I just discovered that one of my favorite bands came out with an album 4 years ago that I completely forgot to listen to. After listening to half of the songs, I’ll sum up my feelings with a comic I just read: “As a hardcore panic fan, I’m trying to like this song. I’ll give it more time”
It's none of my business whether the website I post on is growing, shrinking, staying the same. I am yelling at the sky and whoever wants to gawk at me is welcome
What is with the ai food photos on NYT Cooking? I see them everywhere in InstaCart’s Meals section. I already don’t like NYT but this is crazy ugly.
Today is the birthday of cartoonist Jackie Ormes (Aug. 1, 1911-Dec. 26, 1985), the first Black woman to create a newspaper comic strip that was read nationally in the US. She created Torchy Brown in Dixie to Harlem, Torchy in Heartbeats & Patty-Jo ‘n’ Ginger. Patty Jo became a toy doll.
just said this on another post but it bears repeating: the thing about continuing to give money to any jk rowling properties or the nyt is not that they’re shitty about trans people, which they are. it is that both of these entities MATERIALLY CONTRIBUTE to the legal challenges to trans rights
I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful
On days it’s hard to focus, I take my stabilos and draw some portraits or doodle some shapes. Experimenting with portrait drawing helped a lot today
I just discovered that the Louis Vuitton symbol have a meaning? The star is fortune, the flower is joy, and the star within the diamond means passion. Crazy
I’m thinking of working on my pet portraits so I can offer free ones to the animal shelters around me 🤔 #artsky
I’m working on stylizing portraits so I’m not just copying the reference. It’s one of the ways I want to grow in 2026. I’m getting there! #artsky
Protect trans kids!! Protect trans adults!! Donate, share their work, show them the love and support they deserve. Also punch transphobes in the face
Man i love visiting the Museum of York County. So many animals to draw!
This is Milo, my friend’s sweet grey boy. He has the smallest, high pitch meow. I got to stay the night with him and he actually came to cuddle me. He has me looking at my cats different 😆 #petportrait #artsky
Listen, I did not watch the last Toy Story movie and I won’t be watching this one. I love animation but I’m so ready for new, original stories. (Reference photo from r/drawme on Reddit) #artsky

Lynda Barry did not squeeze your heart and simultaneously explain the point of all art with the barest of line drawings so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."
Sam Raimi didn't strap a Super 8 camera to a 2x4 so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."
Would you ever forage for mushrooms? Every time I think about it, I’m so scared to poison myself somehow. My friend bought me a book on foraging mushrooms without dying. I won’t be foraging anytime soon but I will be drawing mushrooms from this book #artsky #sketchbook
