Part Marcus Aurelius, part conversations with my cat. Unfluencer in the extreme.
I like analyzing methodology, semiotics, heuristics and your mom.
I guess I also like to make things.

Um, this is going well. Way better than last time I tried to do a study on Yoshitaka Amano. I'm almost afraid to try laying down colors cuz it took me so long to understand his shapes.

This image has stuck in my head for over twenty years, so I thought I’d try to do a study of it. #lodoss #deedlit #kisekinoumi #fanart

I don't know why, but the image of Ciara Kelly descending to a diving board while possessed by a demon, looking completely strung out really stuck in my head. There was no outfit description so I ended up letting her be Ginger Spice. Sharing now cuz I don't think I'll finish it.

The two people next to me were thin too! No self awareness at all. Such an uncomfortable flight.

I forgot I bought this album at a thrift store maybe fifteen years ago. Stuck it in to my player and all I can say is that I wasn't expecting something that sounds like Jean-Jacques Goldman.

Heard it's the 30th anniversary of Gundam Wing and I've been working on loosening up my sketches, so here's Wu Fei... It's been 20 years for me, and I still am trying to figure out how to draw him

I think I may have found the first recorded dunk on millennials. This was written in 1990. Calm down, man. We're fucking five years old and you're the one who raised us.

Okay, so the sources, as best as I can figure, are a lie. I see no evidence of longitudinal studies that I KNOW were being done. Let me say this with my full chest. You. Cannot. Make. A. Claim. Without. Proof. And if you have proof, you do not bury it in whatever the hell this is:

So which is it? Do people of a generation change opinion as they live longer, or are they the same which is why the opinions of 80 year olds change over the decades as new generations age into the age group?

Okay, looking for sources is not looking good. But I did find this old chestnut. No source of course.

Totally on board if true. What's the source? Chapter 1 Notes say "Go to Chapter 10 and 11." Okay, so now I have to go read over 50 pages of the conclusion to find this fact, and then check the citations for those chapters? Why is this an scavenger hunt?

Very sorry, but I'm going to live tweet a few chapters of this Howes and Strauss book. Not off to a great start with a "we couldn't do a representative sample because woman and minorities are not written about."

#Methodology side of Bluesky: Make this make sense. Twenge writes "Notes: Shows the percentage of each phrase in all books published in that year.[...]The scale has been adjusted for some phrases by factors of 10 so they can appear in the same figure; the phrases are not actually equally common."

Passing a background check is a bare minimum for people who work with vulnerable populations, which teens definitely are. But Uber also doesn't believe it's liable for criminal acts by the drivers, so you'll forgive me as I hardcore side eye this concept.

Prune burgers kinda sound gross, but whatevs. Anyway, if you’re bored enough in a meeting, you too can draw Sailor Moon in the style of Bob’s Burgers.

Drawing of #sailormoon in #beeandpuppycat style. I really loved making this one. I especially love how @natazilla.bsky.social sees color, so it was such a pleasure trying to even just mimic them.
