Trying an experiment where I sell super sketchy ACEO (2.5x3.5) paintings on eBay to see what would happen.

Painting these between baby awakenings in the middle of the night.

Figured I'd remind y'all of what you already know in case you're unnecessarily blaming yourselves. substack.com/home/post/p-...
You Are Not Under Qualified Or Failing, They're Under Hiring And Underpaying.
Reminding you of what you already know in terms of the current economy- that your struggles are likely not your fault. It's easier to blame ourselves, not more truthful.

@gamefullyun.bsky.social I totally forgot the After series exists. That is definetly the perfect choice. Depending on your comfort level, another consideration might be the 365 Days trilogy, which is essentially what if 50 Shades but more red flags and more hornt up 🤔

an excerpt from my novel The Climb, which is by turns a fantasy epic, memoir, play, screenplay, joke book, pop culture essay and spiritualized sci-fi.
MICHAEL (sobbing, gasping) I know that when I die I'm going to turn into a tiny speck of energy that's all alone lost in a big grey void and I'll spend eternity looking around for a little pocket to be in or another little speck to talk to but there isn't anything, just being all alone for eternity. My brain is sure of this. I know this to be true. Imagine that. I know it. JENN I'm so sorry for that, but the world is bigger than us. I can't always comfort you the way you want to be comforted. I don't always have the capacity for that. MICHAEL Well, that sucks. Michael smacks asphalt and his head cracks open. Brains everywhere. Divested of so much ballast, jenn flies ever faster until they finally surpass the cosmological constant and reverse time. When they reach the spacetime where Michael's head was burst, they pause to unspool the visible portions of his brain and read them, run the memories through their fingers like ticker tape. jenn continues backwards, whipping past their Little Dog, who pins them with an e_pression of hurt and bewilderment as they are abandoned to the timestream. It's a look that will haunt jenn for the rest of their life. All is submerged beneath a tsunami. jenn fires off a few 3D-printed hollow-point high caliber rounds at the waves, but it doesn't work, which is crazy. CHYRON - "LESSON - Another good reason to be kind is that, sooner or later, we all get our brains smashed out."

Many know me as one of the few people on Earth to have openly admitted that we all want to have sex with pumpkins, like, a lot of the time.

BUT THERE'S M04R

Today, a new Era of Small Beans dawns. Bean dips everywhere chant "holy frijoles" in their cozy lil beanpods. Here's why... (1/4)
The new Small Beans logo. The BeansTalk logo (WIP) From the film Cat's Eye. A character smoking eleven cigarettes at once says "Come on, have a cigarette!" From the show Deep Space 9. Odo is pleased to have regained his shapeshifting abilities.

BY THE WAY

If you've updated to Windows 11 recently, you're probably on version 25H2.

There's a new setting in Settings: Privacy & Security.

Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation."

TURN IT OFF.
