maybe I should just switch to linux. through lots of reading it looks like even my old ass drawing tablet is supported by the linux wacom project and more people than not report getting csp to work with minimal finagling. everything else I use either has a native install or an equal replacement...
Cannon Beach, Oregon, is beautiful at sunset, with bonfires lighting the sandy beach in every direction. The best part is watching the pelicans dance and swirl overhead, celebrating in the last rays of daylight. Pelican Sky by Erin Hanson, 2021 Oil on canvas 38 x 48 in #BlueSkyArtShow #Earth #Art
my dad suggested dual booting to use linux while keeping windows for my one potentially problematic program (csp) and I went reading articles about it to get a feel for the process and girl why is this image here??? why is it so haunting???? partition your disk if you fucking dare!
Given all of the recent genAI discussion, I wish to repost this.
so is there any digital service that isn't infested with ai crap? looked for stock audio sites to suggest to my partner for possibly posting his music loops and while none of them accept ai submissions they all have ai tools. is there no place to go anymore? is it all in service of the robots now?
The way paying people more so obviously and directly benefits the economy cuz I got a really nice tip from a customer the other day and I already want to go out and spend it, likely on a restaurant to give the server a really big tip. But heaven forbid we pay the poor more
Some people impulse shop. I impulse got an inter library loan lol
I should win an award for how many times I resist getting into arguments or making quippy jokes at chuds I know won't have their minds changed. And people on bsky should be thankful that there's no private quote post too lol
starting to hand code my portfolio website after scrapping my weebly account and man, I really did just kinda go headlong into making shit overly complicated for my little personal tester site when I could just be doing things super basic in notepad with minimal futzing lol
Saw in my bosses office a booklet saying something like Ai isn't the problem people not accepting it are something something things leaders need to do to make it work or something like brother people do want to do their jobs they just need the conditions made better for it
I think I'm showing great restraint by not responding to "got any plans for the fourth?" with "praying for him to get heat stroke and die" lol
I was taken by The Loot Of The Rainbow pic by Arthur Ferrier and used it as reference for this mari experiment
Hate that there's so much shit to email state reps about but it is fun to pretend to be a disappointed old white lady scolding my congressman for voting for stupid shit. Like isn't most of the shit republicans vote for just huge government overreach? Party of small government my ass.
Boss: please text me about this thing when you get to it Me: texts him about it Boss:
anyone get people subbing to your patreon just to accuse you of stealing their man??? miss ma'am you did not have to pay $5 to do that lol
One of the most disgusting things about AI is how much business have used generative AI for logos and other materials. I see an AI logo or menu, I'm not only out, but I'm telling people not to check out your business.
I'm now reminded of Le génie du mal, a statue of Lucifer by Belgian artist Joseph Geefs, it was considered so hot there was fear it would distract people during sermons, so it was removed and his brother Guillaume made a second version, that was also too hot.
It's weird to be engaging with a piece of media and there be a collective four total posts about it across bsky and Tumblr. Like hello am I the only one here enjoying this random book??? it's kingdom of tomorrow btw, for the pleasure of being post number five or whatever lol
Got excused before the first day lol month of pre anxiety for NOTHING

Stop looking at your phone stop looking at your phone stop looking at your phone
I'm SO excited to finally share these pieces I created for D&D Ravenloft: The Horrors Within. This project was such a huge honor to work on. I remember as a kid looking through the players manuals & doing little studies of the artwork in there, so this feels a bit full-circle.
