they drew him to look like a ghoul - Stede drew him with love Stede looked at the wanted poster and the long list of Ed's crimes and the only thing that bothered him is that they made Ed look scary. HE LOVES EVERYTHING ABOUT ED 🥺

'You'll choke too' - an aerial embroidery landscape inspired by all the wildfires happening right now... I'm upset every time I smell smoke outside and somehow we have people starting them maliciously too! But we all breathe the same air so they'll choke too (1/2 - see thread for close-ups)

An embroidery hoop containing a sewn landscape from above. It shows a forest on the right, a line of fire and charred ground with smoke on the left. The smoke is felted wool.

Secondly, I'm excited to share that I've posted a new $10 (USD) digital art zine to my Ko-Fi!! It's a collection of 52 full colour pin-up drawings that are mostly of Stede, but there are also a number of drawings of Ed. This zine includes some newly finished drawings as well! ko-fi.com/s/ec1c284ba8

This is my 1st time offering comms (outside of auctions). I'm trying to get ahead of the squeeze I'm going to face later this summer before my next funding comes through. I know times are hard for a lot of people, so no pressure and any help you can offer is greatly appreciated! 🫶 #OFMDfanart

At the top the illustration says Commissions by Samm, All prices in USD. Below that it says $15 colour pfp with some examples next to it. Below that are two sections. The one on the left says Single character $20 B&W and $35 colour. There are examples below. On the right it says Two Characters $35 B&W and $55 colour with some examples below. An additional note says $15 per add. character. In a heart on the left it says Special Stede or Ed colour pin-up $30. Next to that it says SFW + NSFW. At the bottom is an email address: botblarg at gmail dot com.

Honestly one of the worst parts of the hives is how much harder it is to dissociate and I realize that isn’t a healthy reaction but I would give anything to just remove myself from reality for a bit

So, ok, a thing about telling yr audience "i use AI for my info gathering/research but then I look over it and fix any errors" is that you unfortunately told me youve outsourced your knowledge base on this subject to the machine, and therefore I have no reason to believe you CAN catch those errors

And finished! Abstract embroidery on tulle, intended to remind you of walking along the shoreline as the sun hits the water. Made in return for a charity donation by lovely ofmd crew.

An embroidery hoop held in my left hand against a white wall. It is made using mixed media in mostly ocean colours with beadwork wool, metal and cotton. The shadow of the embroidery and my hand is visible on the wall

Help me out protesting AI slop? My library has been leaning on it HEAVILY. They don't listen to staff who say it's unethical and looks like shit and also makes us look terrible. But if members of the public said so... there's a handy survey... (some illustrations for reference. Links below) 1/

horrible AI slop "art" of a stack of books. The top one says "Tie" on the spine and then has six stars. On its cover it says in very warped text something that looks like it's probably meant to be "The American Story"A crop of some horrible AI slop "art" of a spaceship. It has the thrusters going backward and the star on its front has a weird tail. The books in the background look like they exist in more dimensions than we have.

We have raised one thousand dollars!! Thank you all SO much 🥹 1/3rd of the way there! It's my 50th birthday this year, in October, and "still having a place to live" would be the most incredible gift this old disabled disaster bi could ask for.

$3100. Please share or donate if you can. I thought we had options, but they keep falling through. I can't sleep not knowing if we're going to have a roof over our heads this winter. As always, DM me if you need verification, I 100% understand and will provide. spot.fund/rzz1zs6sc
