Time for a new pinned post!
Hi! I'm Letty, a comics artist, game-maker and illustrator based in Scotland! I spend a lot of time thinking about oak galls and things that happen in caves.

The last leaves of autumn glow even brighter to a hungry pair of Therizinosaurus, bulking up for a long winter. These strange dinosaurs are some of my favorites, and though they're slow movers, they made it just in time to be included in my new calendar!

About the Frieren drawing meme, one helpful tip I learned was to think of the neck as the fifth limb of the human body.

Some illustrations I worked on recently for carved in stone by @stoutstoat.co.uk. Loved working on this project!
A group of Picts travelling through the Scottish landscape, making use of dirt paths, old roman roads, bridges and ferries. A group of Picts travelling together (possibly a family? up to you!) including a young man with a spear, a woman dressed in furs, a young girl and a man who has been injured in battle or an accident and lost his right arm. The same group of Picts bartering with a settlement of charcoal burners for a place to stay overnight. Our Picts again, but this time they are camping with a tent. The young man stands watch while the woman cooks and the other two keep themselves entertained.

Screenshot from Reddit page r/PetsWithButtons, user Pamlwell: My cat has started to use “vacuum” as a curse word. Basically the title. | gave him a “vacuum” button because the vacuum is stressful for him and I wanted to be able to clearly communicate that the vacuum was going to happen and let him know “vacuum all done.” He definitely knows what it means because when the vacuum is running he will push “vacuum” repeatedly and also add “nervous” in there too. But now he has started spamming vacuum after I tell him no, like he is using it as a curse word. For example, he will ask for “snackie” when we JUST got done with snackie and I will say “snackie all done" and then he will go spam the vacuum button. Yeah, ok bud, I hear you loud and clear that you feel "vacuum" about “snackie all done.” Or he snuck a lick from the end of my spicy curry dish (I did not authorize this, | looked away for ONE second), I could tell he regretted this (spicy), and then he went and pressed “snackie vacuum.” Yeah, ok bud, that snackie made your mouth feel “vacuum”. I don’t know what I'm asking really, just commiserating. I guess maybe he needs a "mad" button?

The AI bubble may be about to bust.

Peter Thiel has sold all of his Nvidia stock.

We all need to say this very clearly:

NO BAILOUTS FOR THEFT-TECH!

Expropriate their asses instead.

They stole from all of us and fully plan to burn the planet.

They owe us - not the other way around. 1/3

Other decorative sea-motifs include sea urchins, seaweed and rocks. Height 27cm. From Palaikastro, 1500-1450 BC Bottom L - alabastron, broad at the base, swelling outwards into a fuller belly before narrowing near the top with a very short cyclindrical neck and a wider flat rimmed mouth.

THREAD.

The definitive list of the absolute best interdimensional portals I have photographed on walks in the British countryside.

1. Gateway To The Land Of Leaping Dogs.
I took this photo on the Teign Estuary in Devon in spring 2022. I thought I was just taking a photo of an attractive hole in an old tree. It was only when I got home and looked through my camera roll that I saw the leaping dog, who I'd caught perfectly framed, mid-leap, totally by chance. I remembered the dog immediately, because of what an annoying twat it had been.

Hey, long time no see

I’m doing a storage purge and found a box of old enamel pins and prints + some original drawings that I don’t want to keep gathering dust, so I’m listing them for local shipping on my store!
