Gonna leave this recommendation here for everyone tired of pinterest's shenanigans
Maybe it will turn sour eventually like everything else apparently. But can we foster alternatives while they are still on the good path?
It has images like the ones on pinterest +community labeling -ai

if i’m serious about an illustration i try to come up with at least 3 somewhat distinct concepts (something i’ve internalized from school) but 9/10 times the first one is the one i go with. then i’ll do some smaller tweaks and stuff and a few color scripts before solidifying the idea.
On a similar note, "your first sketch/idea is never your best" is one of the worst pieces of advice I've ever gotten.
I wasted a lot of time and energy forcing myself past concepts that I felt strongly about because I was made to believe a better one was out there. Often there just wasn't one.

I don't like "Your first draft will be shitty" as advice, because it's a really negative framing.
I prefer, "You have the freedom to be messy creating your first draft."
Anyone crafter knows what their room looks like mid-creation. Writers should be as free to be as exhuberent and messy.

This is fully anecdotal but a fun bit of data: people who clicked through to my holiday sale from Bluesky were *twice as likely* to complete a purchase compared to people who clicked through via Instagram

struggling with housing insecurity for almost a year now since termites ate our house. Previously homeless, would love to have aid! I'm from the global south, and the sole caretaker of family of three, in no position to refuse help. If you like my art, feel free to send me a tip!

showed that movie to my friends for the first time a while back and it was very satisfying seeing them put the pieces of the story together in real time just before the reveal
Finally watched Arrival last night and I really think we should be allowed more big-budget films about linguistics.
