Things you love hearing from a 20-something: “do you live under a rock???” Yes. Compared to everyone in LA who exposes themselves to the constant burning heat of entertainment media, I live under a rock and I like it here thank you

“Teen by default” is the craziest term I’ve heard yet to justify a dystopian future of companies surveilling and moral-policing our digital landscape If you’ve got mature channels in your discord, kiss them goodbye discord.com/press-releas...

Talent alone can't get the job done. The people who these shills see as "privileged" or "naturally talented" just had ideas in their head they needed to get out, and they found ways to make it happen within their means. They drew a lot of pictures that looked like garbage. But they never stopped.

Three years ago, I was approached by many artists at Hiveworks asking if their mistreatment was normal. That their feelings of horrible self worth within the company was really just a 'them' problem. Turns out, it was unfortunately normal in that we ALL felt that way.

Yes to all of this! AND you also stumble down amazing rabbit holes (hello, the War of the Castle of Love) and make new friends and have an excuse to buy fascinating, out of print secondhand books! Why would you choose a dodgy shortcut when the long way is so much more scenic and rewarding?

There's Discourse about using genAI for writing research, and I want to add that every time I've done research (reading books, emailing the library, talking directly to experts, etc) I always stumble across something that inspires a new direction or adds depth that wouldn't have been there before.

Quick reminder: While I do a lot these kinds of drawing on my iPad for fun and to clear my head, I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO BE COMMISSIONED TO INK THEM FOR YOU THE PEOPLE. If you see me posting one you like and are interested in owning some original art, please get in touch at tomfowlerart at gmail.

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)
