Mostly an art account maybe with some hold steady fandom thrown in?

Very few things have resonated as deeply in the bones of my soul as when I hear Nikki Minaj sing “a hundred motherfuckers can’t tell me nothing”

A friend gave me some makeup last week and I put it on for the Johnson City Zine Fest today and...have no idea how to smile for a picture in it because I suddenly struggle to recognize myself.
Anyways, Zine Fest is today! One of my favorite shows! Come buy zines!

This is kinda why @gravesart.bsky.social and I do our Pouncepunk art challenge the way we do: only two prompts a week, and we release the prompt list in advance so participants have plenty of time to actually, you know, work.
Inktober sets completely unrealistic expectations regarding output. Making a complete inked drawing in one day EVERY day for a month is insane and a recipe for burnout. Don’t tie your worth to something that even professionals believe is unrealistic.
Didn't we agreed to stop romanticing Inktober a couple of years ago bc the guy running It was terrible and the trend glorifies art as content, or what happened

I’ve been juggling a lot and working hard lately so got myself a nice treat that I’ve been hyperfixating over

I hope you all read this from me.
To describe the current state of the world as a daily show of deepening horrors is a massive understatement.
However, I read something today that I think more people should see and read.
I hope she doesn't mind my me sharing it here.
