A doodle during a lecture grew into a drawing of our dawg. She's not feeling too great right now, something we expect her knee surgery in a couple weeks to help. On an absolutely-related note, if you want to buy this drawing for $8000, shoot me a message.

My wife (@sarahvaleriart on Instagram) is participating in this year's @unrwausa.bsky.social 5K for Gaza, which helps provide mental health services for children in Gaza. Throw some support her way!

I made a comment about King Crimson. My wife said, "That would be so sad--his makeup would run!"

It took us a minute to realize she meant King Diamond.

"I'm such a nerd," she said. I explained that between King Diamond and King Crimson, King Diamond fan is not the nerd.

From the Cleveland, TN, jail dockets comes this unfortunate name.

This is just an exercise in procedurally modeling, rigging, and animating some critters that I did a couple of years ago, using #houdini and rendered in #ue5, but the lighting annoyed me, so I gave it a little goose. Some have suggested that I use less horrible sound, but they are wrong. #friends

How is Mamdani not a distant first in the polls (or at least anyone but Cuomo)? New York establishment Democrats boggle my mind.

This started out as me playing with @lukas.thorup 's 2D-smoke-sim particle advection setup, then I added some colliders, some custom velocities fields just 'cause, and some velocity-based-emission shaders, and, lo, something not floppy/gross/silly happened.

@sarahvaleriart is taking some of her unique instruments for a spin (with a little help from me) tomorrow night as part of her ongoing exhibition, "Song in the Bone." There will be noise.

The Ungovernable Harpies (from the mind of, and here played by, @radiospell) are advancing all electric.

Expect some high musickal weirdness Wednesday night as part of her ongoing exhibition in DUMBO, 20 Jay, suite 307!

An early test of a rigged prop for a (very) short movie-in-progress. Obviously, it's about where babies come from.

Got a spammy "oops wrong number" text. They made the mistake of mentioning golf, an execrable and indefensible activity, so it warranted a reply.

Here's another Easter celebration from a year or two ago. This one is in 3D, so dig out those red/cyan glasses!

An old celebration of Easter, when a zombie dude says, "My dad can beat up your dad," while bestowing magical powers to the Holy Bunny Cloaca.

This will no doubt surprise you, but the sound effects in this came from me and my mouth--it is not a field recording! I'm no Michael Winslow, true, but: baby steps.

Nothing fancy here. Sometimes you just gotta goo.

Just a headsup for those of you new to me on Bluesky: my animated G-rated porn movie, "Baiser (Kiss)", is available on-demand alongside many other (decidedly NOT-G-rated) saucy, fun, and interesting flicks on @pinklabeltv.bsky.social

I took Bob Larson’s “Demon Test” and scored “low risk for demon possession/oppression”. Suck it, my Tennessee high school guidance counselors. True story.

Reposting another oldie as part of a slow migration away from Instagram.

With all the terrible things going on in the world, I thought it would be good to focus on something positive, and remember that Pat Robertson is still dead.

I keep finding these pretty gals rolling around my apartment.

An experiment mixing materials in #houdinifx. Everything looks better with veins that procedurally pop out.

Base floor material is from #polyhaven

While it is convenient that babies are self-shaking, their innate zeal coupled with a lack of restraint means that supervision is still advised.

(Another, um, classic?)
