I don’t have a whole lot of advice for people younger than me but the earlier in life you stop worrying about what other people will think and just wholeheartedly enjoy the stuff you like the happier you’ll be

One thing people kind of tell you, but not really, about middle age:

One day you'll be like "oh [thing] looks fun but people will think I'm a loser" about a thing

And then you'll say. Wait a second.

Fuck 'em

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

Sometimes I wonder if our many years of jokes about writers hating writing and doing anything but writing, etc, have convinced people that the writing part is the hurdle and the goal is just to have a thing in hand. But I am here to tell you: the writing is the best part. The act is the thing.

Digital illustration of a half man, half orchid praying-mantis hybrid. The creature has an upper torso of a human in a praying gesture, with a teal crown floating on his head, and a teal sword impaled through his chest and out his back. His mantis half is doing the same gesture, and its wings are splayed open. The character's skin is a pale pink with rosy pink hair and mantis legs, but with teal green embellishments; his upper torso has green tattoos, and his mantis body is adorned in ornate patterns, and his wings are a vibrant teal and turquoise color.

I spotted this on Mastodon and I find it horrible, not least for the speed with which this has happened.
A post on Mastodon by small cypress (@small_cypress@indieweb.social): As an art teacher I was worried AI would come up as an issue of "why should I learn how to draw when I can use AI instead." But the real issue is that my middle schoolers CONSTANTLY believe all art I show them is AI. Digital art. Photography. Oil paintings from the Western canon. "A human couldn't do that" Being convinced that humans can't make great art is kind of terrifying

indoor product photography is DUMB everyone knows the only way to get a good photo of your wares is to go outside and THROW them in the DIRT

anyway, whoever gets the dice with grass stains on them, you’re welcome for the extra authenticity 😂
a plethora of wood dice in sizes ranging from tiny 14mm to standard 16mm to hefty 20mm to chonky 25mm. they are laser engraved with so many cute illustrations, all my own original drawings, of bugs, animals, mushrooms, flowers, tabletop gaming items, scrabble tiles, cookies, and environments. there are like forty of them anf they’re just strewn in a sunny patch of dirt, dead leaves, and bright green clover, with a single dandelion in the center. eagle-eyed viewers may observe a die right next to the dandelion featuring a side engraved with that same flower.

Midnight Tunes #art
Two mushrooms standing by a big campfire in a dark forest. One of them, a yellow Chanterelle, is playing the ukulele, while the other, a mushroom with a brown cap, is dancing and singing. Fireflies are flying around them. Stars can be seen in the night sky peeking through the tall trees with a single shooting star falling.

Thank you Brennan Lee Mulligan for making a campaign themed around birds, I knew I could trust you.
Really enjoying this @criticalrole.bsky.social campaign in Araman so much

#criticalrole #criticalrolecampaign4 #crfanart #criticalrolefanart #araman #birds
#rpgs #ttrpgs #dnd
A stylised set of icons featuring different birds with different themes based on Critical Role's campaign four set in Araman , with game master Brennan Lee Mulligan. The first is a stylised falcon whose beak forms the hilt of a sword, the word Soldiers is written below the icon. The second is a magpie holding a red thread that turns to a dotted line along it's neck , The word Schemers is written below the icon. The third is a stylised nightingale with its mouth open in song. Its eye forms the arrow of a compass and the text written below is Seekers. They are arranged horizontally on a gray background

The post reads: There are no rabbits On the trampoline No squirrels skydiving On the air conditioner The cat is not holding a meeting In a dapper little suit But there’s a fat pit bull at the bus stop And a baby with chubby feet in a stroller And the air smells like fall Real life is happening all around you And it is more beautiful than garbage Vomited up by a machine that eats water and jobs I am begging you to unhook your brain And go eat ice cream on a bench Life is too short To stare at a small screen That turns your dreams into pretty pictures And your brain into mush.
