I create #fantasyart illustrations in pen or #coloredpencil. A lot of my work revolves around #mentalhealth and #chronicillness. I also do #collage, especially collaging my older work into something new. I dabble in creative essays and #zines, too!
"Like Clockwork" by Andreana Rosnik, an illustration in colored pencil. It consists of a circular framed image of an old-fashioned chemistry laboratory, where there are mysterious bubbling green and yellow liquids on the lab bench, a distillation apparatus, jars, etc. To the right one can see a fume hood in the background. In the middle is a shelf full of strange substances in jars. In the foreground if the circular frame is a human skull with disembodied eyes staring back at it. Unraveling from the skull is an orange peel covered in markings, with muscle tissue underneath the peel. The peel extends to the rest of the image. On the outer portion of the peel are musical notes, a Bible verse, binary, the time-dependent Schrodinger equation, an idyllic scene...Above the circular frame to the left are some phases of the moon, and to the right different times on clocks. Below the circular frame are arms and orange trees: the arm on the left is a mechanical arm pointing its index finger up, and to the right is a human skeletal arm with outstretched fingers splayed down. In between the two arms are orange trees. "Note to self", collage, 2024 by Andreana Rosnik. In the center hovering over a monstrous face is the quote "If you beat yourself up too much, you won't enjoy what you have left". The body extending from the quote is skeletal, with one hand on a curly-haired person with their back to us but facing the monster, and the other hand wagging a finger. Below the person is a plant with eyes and theater masks. In the background is a disembodied arm holding a sword; this is upside down and to the left of the central skeletal figure. In the bottom right is a knight on a horse and an eyeless parrot. A pile of zines entitled "Pieces from the end of the matchbox", whose cover is a burnt match composed of collaged paper calendars and abstracted shapes. A white sheep with green eyes and rainbow wooly fur. It is wearing a green hat, and it has two stud earrings on each ear. Inside the fur around the neck are buttons that look like enamel pins: a rainbow, an X inside a circle, an Erlenmeyer flask with purple liquid, and a white rabbit. The background is swirls of pale pink and yellow.

It's absolutely WILD how routinely self-avowed superfans of hard science and modern technology IMMEDIATELY default to magical thinking, and don't consider that a red flag at all.

"Excited to see what CHatGPT thinks about-" IT DOESN'T THINK!!! It's not a mind!

the bullish A.i. people are annoying not just bc they're championing a stupid and bad technology but bc of all of the logical failures they make extrapolating on what they think A.i. will become.

It has been clear for the entire fucking eternity since Trump was re-elected that the people were out ahead of the elites on how to react, how to resist, how to fight.

It's been terrifying to watch Dems in power "pivot" to reactionary politics...

Zohran Mamdani wins!

He ran on an unabashedly pro-transgender platform, stood up for the most vulnerable, as so many have pushed for the Democratic Party to abandon trans people in order to win.

Major win for trans New Yorkers - he has vowed for intense resistance to anti-trans Trump policies.

New in PN: Virginia and New Jersey can show that Trump isn't inevitable

"A powerful performance this Tuesday could help break the feverish doom loop of Democratic self-recrimination and elite capitulation which has contributed to our flatulent descent into fascist thuggery."
Virginia and New Jersey can show that Trump isn't inevitable
MAGA might be in for an ass-whuppin' on Tuesday.

Happy Halloween, boneheads!

#tlt #thelockedtomb #booksky
Two painted orange pumpkins. The pumpkin on the left has mouths for eyes with tongues slithering out, and the main mouth looks similar. The pumpkin on the right has the quintessential Gideon the Ninth skull motif from the Locked Tomb series: a skull with "IX" on the forehead, aviator sunglasses over the eyes, and classic skull nose and mouth.

Some Little Free Libraries share much more than books—they share canned good, toiletries, and household items, as well! There are nearly 4,000 locations in our mobile app tagged as sharing boxes. How can you find these sharing boxes? Open the Little Free Library mobile app or web map. Select the magnifying glass icon to open search filters. In the Tags section, select the Sharing Box tag. Adjust your search radius anywhere from 1 mile to 100 miles, then hit Search. Many stewards attach a mini-shed add-on to allow for sharing of household goods in addition to books.

nessie
A digital drawing of the Loch Ness Monster swimming with moss growing on its back and seaweed tangled on its flippers. The original 1934 photo is on the left side with a red heart drawn over the monster as several yellow cutout stars decorate the illustration. Word cutouts frame the drawing of Nessie that say “You may not see me anymore, but I still love you”.

My work friend
says she thinks
people read fantasy books
and watch medieval shows
because they think we
are heading back
to the dark ages,
and while I’m not sure
we’re heading to the dark ages
between the literal plague
and the metaphorical plague
we’re certainly in dark times.

Many people are outraged that Trump is demolishing part of the White House. But of course Trump can't do it without help. It's ACECO LLC of Silver Spring MD ("full-service demolition") that is tearing down the People's House. You can call them and let them know how you feel. 1/
