We started watching Widow’s Bay today and I LOVE IT but also I can’t stop wondering if that was Chris Fleming’s personal lizard he just like, brought with him, or if they had to hire a stunt lizard and handler for that single shot in the episode
Seeing that Splatoon Raiders is out got me thinking about the time I made this puppet doll thing for a charity art zine back when the first game came out

For those who missed Speed Racer or who rightfully want to see it again (like me), Polygon Gallery in North Vancouver is hosting a screening for Pride, complete with drag performances!

Been trying to find a way to watch Speed Racer for over a year and think I may have finally found the perfect solution (on the big screen) though it would mean taking my 6yo
the one thing i want from fanfest is more jortimer information unless it's that his name is not actually jortimer, in which case i don't care about it, they're simply wrong

I finished The Mermaid Mask from SFB games @sfbdim.bsky.social @sfbtom.bsky.social last night and it was so great, I can't stop thinking about it. Great story, stylish as ever, really fun puzzles! I can't recommend this and Tangle Tower enough store.steampowered.com/app/1696770/...

It’s always dudes in pickup trucks who yell at you on the street for some invented slight against them. Today it was that I wasn’t walking fast enough across a cross walk, while the cross walk sign was on 🤷🏻♀️

RIP Sam Neill. every comic book creator should watch this, it helps me immensely in the dark times
Sam Neill on tackling depression and imposter syndrome when you’re between jobs.
I wanna buy some octopus fluids write and draw ink in koala red. Why is it the MOST $$$ at the art chain store here? Should that not be the opposite? they have multiple stores to order to, the price should be the lowest??? it’s the best priced at the smallest and furthest away from me shop!
Anyways this local Vancouver restaurant called Oishinoya has been ignoring my questions on insta about if they use ai images in their kiosk menu screens sooooo pretty good indicator they do lol So I guess if you care about this sort of thing, and you should, don’t give these losers any of your $
any time I talk about how Andy Serkis sucks people are so confused/surprised but like eventually people will get it
In case you forgot that Andy Serkis is no friend to artists, here’s more fodder. (He previously basically gave no credit to the vfx animators that made gollum)
I really want to like doing watercolour sketches but I feel like most of the time I'm just wishing I was using gouache instead. It's so much easier to carry around than wet gouache tho!

Hey you know what would get affordable housing into the hands of people quickly? If the housing was priced appropriately to the market and wasn't sat empty for ages because developers refuse to take any loss I really don't want my fucking taxes to bail out these housing market predators
"I don't think we've done — myself included — a particularly good job of rolling this out." you don't say
