Guys like this don’t realize that they are the freak

EA's annual Ebitda is around $1.5 billion, which should be enough to service the interest payments. But the publisher has told debt investors that it will cut $700 million in annual costs including $170 million in "organizational efficiencies," per Bloomberg. In other words: mass layoffs

EA officially goes private tonight, meaning: - EA will no longer trade on the NASDAQ for the first time in 36 years - All stockholders of EA (including many employees) will receive $210/share - EA will take on $18 billion (!) in debt, putting it on the hook to pay ~$1.8 billion/year in interest

I retook a picture of one of my old works. Here's a pterosaur, it has some anatomical mistakes, but I still like it #SciArt #paleoart #embroidery #art

lol, no, thank unions. Capital would work you 24/7 in a coalmine starting at the ripe old age of 7 if they were allowed to. Every ounce of leisure time working people have is because workers organized.

Animating 11 characters is a very humbling experience. #twewy #twewy19th #ntwewy5th

This is a metaphor so on the nose it hurts. Literally, they are removing knowledge from the public domain to feed their machines and permanently deny your access to it. The privatization of knowledge and information is their goal.

This is ... horrific

Today we would like to recognize Ken Sample aka Ken Cougar. A Black man who is credited with creating and coining the term "Fursona". While drawing one of his "Exotics" Ken drew a Cougar character that looked strikingly like himself. Attendees of this conference also wanted their own characters!

With highly-pathogenic avian influenza now in NZ, we're taking steps to protect #kakapo and #takahe by vaccinating against the disease, following a successful trial. We're aiming for ~90 kākāpō and 100 takahē in an initial phase to protect the most valuable birds/sites. #conservation #birds

most of the fun of fanwork is finding the few people you frequently share mindwaves with and egging each other on in the silliest and most agonizing ways possible

Enjoy the moment! Happy TWEWY and NTWEWY Anniversary! #TWEWY #NTWEWY #MrMew #SanaeHanekoma #Art

It's impossible to scream at artists on the internet loud enough to make them answer accurately if a huge project involved AI or not You're not Batman. Most of them are just individuals doing their jobs. Fuck AI, but don't let it rob you of your humanity towards human artists.

Gonna be real: it's deeply shitty to aggressively demand that artists who worked on a large project guarantee to you that nobody who touched the project used AI. They can't know that and they're not responsible for that. They can only know things within the scope of their own job.

While I'm down for the count after my surgery, I think I'm going to hardcore apply to places and try to find a new job.

Can someone tell my wisdom teeth to stop bothering me until January? I'm almost out of insurance coverage

#stevenuniverse I've been watching Steven Universe with my partner (husband) recently -- here is my rendition of Lapis. I wanted to draw her in afghan (pashtun) attire because one of the biggest deposits of Lapis Lazuli is found in Afghanistan.

Not too shabby for winging it

People with actual skin care routines hate to see me coming

When I was first getting into resin, I bought a reusable mold gel and then completely BOTCHED the project so badly there was tiny bits of plastic everywhere in the mold. After 7 years; I finally strained my gel from the plastic and can actually reuse it now. She is freed.

Fuck AI and I hope these companies go down

Forgot that I can't have hot food on my cutting mat or it warps :'V glad I noticed

EB games didn't have Jaxon/Eksu beyblade's Pop figure in the inventory, so I asked to be notified once it was made available and I FINALLY got it today and. Holy shit the quality for pops has gone WAY down.

“Do Dead Malls Go To Heaven?” Experimented a bit with a new way of detailing the tiles. Kinda like it? This particular piece took a hell of a lot of work. I’d love if you shared the vibes it’s giving off, for research purposes. (WIP process in comments)

Can people stop asking if I'm taking offers on my characters that are clearly not for fucking sale???

Being a digital artist is exhausting 🤷‍♂️
