Well fortunately this little troublemaker was taking a break from being trouble by declaring me a bed, so prime picture taking opportunity.
A black cat with wide pupils and yellow green eyes looks askance at the camera. Said cat seems to be on top of jeans on a bed, with sliding bedroom doors in the background.

Notable is this moment, after Rigney spends WAY too long essentially saying the whole Golden calf thing was because Aaron empathized with the "distressed" people.

The interviewer is confused because "wut?" and the response to misreading the text? "Well that's not the point"
A quote from an interview that says: Aren’t you reading into the text something that isn’t there. Exodus 32 doesn’t say it was too much empathy with the people that led to Aaron’s sin. Wasn’t it just his own pride and people pleasing that was to blame? I think that in practice, all of these things get jumbled together. The bottom line of my project is feelings are good, but really powerful and very dangerous, and therefore need to be anchored to something sturdy. As CS Lewis put it, “Mercy, detached from justice, grows unmerciful.”

Now, social media compression and zooming in and out of photos makes this trickier to show, but here we have a photo of my cat zuko, on a 240p canvas that's actually a tiny snapshot of the photo as whole.

To upscale it, it would be 6x and technically not within modern height and width.
A photo of a black cat sleeping on a purple quilt with some blue fabric behind him. The image is a bit grainy, at 240p resolution. A screenshot from clipstudio where there's a rectangle depicting a black cat sleeping on a quilt, but much of the image is a dark color with white lines creating a large photo shaped rectangle around the smaller rectangel A screenshot showing image recoslution settings. Width of 1920 and a height of 1440 are seen, and the scale of 6 is highlighted. The interpolation method is a high accuracy method of averaging colors. A black cat sleeping on a quilt with blue fabric behind him. Much of it is similar to a previous image, however there are points like a shadowy crease having more greens and subtle colors, and a whisker turning into a pillow crease.

I know I've been blocked by some folks, and I've also blocked folks myself, soooooo...

Here's a facebook style meme I threw together in Krita that I'm okay with folks reposting and sharing around. Just remember the alt text!
A facebook style text meme that says, "The original bluesky ethos: Don't quote dunk, don't pick fights, block and move on. The American right are trolls. Don't feed the trolls. Don't give them a fight. Make Bluesky boring for them." then in teeny tiny font, "-Said a user who wants tech to be fun again". The background is a light blue gradient with rainblow splotches.

But there was something that felt...off in his wording. Couple more questions, and THEN we got to another yellow flag.

A bit of a..."This guy likes to talk, and he's keeping it reeeeaaal short, and also I've heard this type of line from right wingers about high taxes ALL THE TIME."
A screenshot of an interview that says, "What’s your view on the arrest of Telegram CEO Pavel Durov in France? ANDY YEN: I think it was a mistake to arrest him in this way. Any startup founder will now think twice before either travelling to France or even starting and growing a business in France. Because it actually shows that the government is willing to go to extreme measures that in most cases cannot really be justified. The bigger story here is actually the fact that Telegram is not encrypted and as a result is sitting on a massive treasure trove of data that French law enforcement could get access to."

Oh hey, it's portfolio day! I'm a tech artist, primarily in Unreal with more of a bent for vfx, lighting, and performance! I'm currently working on some things to update my portfolio with as I'm looking for remote work, preferably in Europe!
A 3D render of a short and stout coffee mug. A 3D scene made in UE4 of a snowy cliff path during sunrise, with a pine tree forest seen in the background. A 3D render of a grassy texture using both light and dark shades of green as well as some brown. A 3D scene made in UE4 of a foggy sci-fi level. There's a chainlink fence area to the side, with an entrance closer to a room with glass paned windows, and some sort of scifi computer set up. Between the two windows is a stair case, with lights on each side of it.

Well, if nothing else, events mean lots of time for doodling.

The green man-esque painting is in progress, as it's one of those, do I give it a background? Leave it as is? Do something with the eyes? Lots of potential.

@lokiofcontrol.bsky.social and I will be there tabling as Winter Rose Art, should be on the lower level again! Pictured is our eclectic set up from last Spring, though there'll be some improvements with display this time around!
A photo of an art booth set up. Two tables are more diagonal. There's a person working on a drawing while wearing a mask, taped to one table is a hand done sign that says, "Winter Rose Art". All sorts of paintings are shown, as is Jewelry.

Okay. I don't know if this number is actually functional or if they forgot to change their SEO, and tbf this is general customer service not KDP, BUT, this just might be the magical phone number I was once able to use to report a package as stolen after a chatbot kept saying I had to return it.
A screenshot from a search engine showing a link to Amazon's customer servive that says, "Visit the Amazon Customer Service site to find answers to common problems, use online chat, or call customer service phone number at 1-888-280-4331 for support."

Started to muck around with material creator but ultimately went semi-old school and made a bunch of albedos in krita, that I'll bring into Unreal. All these maps are 512x512, because even in a game jam/new project I'm like, "But do I NEED 4k textures?"
A screenshot from inside a file folder showing 4 files, one dark red and labeled "t_carbuncle", one a light orange and specked titled, "t_kurkar_albedo", one that's white and grey titled, "t_limestone_albedo", and one dark one with vague white titled, "t_metallicflecks"

Update: We now have footage of Kukri the Cat responding to these allegations with stretch and walking away.

Gotta add some finer details and whatnot, but I've added more mouse features, and started playing with whether or not to add little feet!
A screenshot from clip studio paint of a watercolor-esque purple mouselike creature with a brightly colored feathered tail.

Hi folks! On top of making threads about various topics, I'm also a 3D tech artist, with a bit of a vfx & lighting slant, who's familiar with Unreal Blueprints!

I'm especially keeping an eye out for gigs in Spain, Germany, or those Nordic countries!

...Jumping back to the silly part, which totally isn't part of how many traumatized brains work, but okay, I guess the OTHER tricky part is figuring out foreshortening BUT I WILL GET THERE WHEN I GET THERE.
A screenshot from clip studio paint, showing a 3D pose character looking seductively at the camera while laying slightly propped up. The background is three colors, tan, pale brown, and a greenish blob/cot that is not of the same perspective as the character.

Well I can't 100% sure it's where, but oh do I recall a Behind the Bastards episode talking about how autistic children were being "cured" via hyperbaric chambers, so, I can see how this woman would be mentioned.

Don't do this by the way. It's fake, it won't work, and it's DANGEROUS.
A screenshot from wikipedia saying, "TACA has been known to support unscientific views on autism treatment and conspiracy theories. Group founder Lisa Ackerman used to attribute autism to a wide range of causes, urging parents to get rid of flame-retardant clothing or mattresses and new carpeting. She advocated for vitamin shots and hyperbaric oxygen chamber treatments.[6] However, TACA has not been known to market an anti-vaccination or pseudoscience position since around 2018."

In that awkward "waiting for it to be time to leave" zone, which kinda adds to QT Designer being pretty quick with the re-setting up an app. Still have to figure out "trigger image overlay when button is pressed" but the UI is very familiar if you've worked with slate programs.
A light blue slime staring directly at you, with a light sheen coming from the right side. There's a blue background and under the slime are three basic buttons that say, "Feed", "Pet", and "Bathe"

Okay, I'm also liking this one...

Reminds me of this tumblr joke regarding pots.
From tumblr user "chronically-izzzzzle", the text "Most people. Consuming too much salt is bad for you!" then the next line "People with POTS..." and the image shown below is a granny glaring at a salt shaker as she pours salt on her tongue though there's a pile on the table.

Behind the scenes sneak peek lol
A picture in a bathroom of a stuffed animal in a plastic bowl, both too large for the lego half room they're in. In the foreground is a canon camera on a tripod.

Dawn's anger levels were apparently too strong for QT Designer thereby causing it to crash with a single placeholder image. (Or it's cranky for one reason or another)
A screenshot from Pokemon of the trainer Dawn sitting with her knees up, with meme text saying, *angy*

And now? Oh *now* we're getting somewhere. In some very interesting ways I was not wholly expecting. Now most of the contrast comes with the blood, FORCING you to look at it. And I dunno, I get more disgust from utilizing this palette. Which *good*. I want that.
A digital drawing of sharp white teeth, lined with blood, with a background of mottled pinks and yellow-ish pinks in a caucasian skin tone.

So okay, turn off the original sketch layer. I turned back on the initial one with blood, so y'all can see mostly what I saw.

And what I saw was two main issues. For one thing, the brown outer line is gone, but there's still colors used for minstrel acts. Then...The implications of it all.

It was quick, but I actually like it. So...I decided to add to it. And once I did, a few subtextual issues came up.

The first being that the color I grabbed to make lines was a brown. Just a sketch, it's a bit of a problem, but not immediately obvious. Add color to the teeth...And uh. Whoops?
A digital drawing with brown linework creating the basis of a creepy smile, most notably around the edges. There's red lines on white teeth, and below, a mottled purple and blue dark background.

Hmmm...Nothing confirming the health status of stunt performers though it is funny to me that something in the universe was not happy with this production for a reason probably related to said stunt performers.
Screenshot from imdb saying "The weather proved to be very problematic during the shooting of Knightriders. Filming was frequently delayed due to rain. At one point the warehouse that was being used for indoor shooting was flooded by a cloudburst. Most spectacularly, on the second day of filming a tornado struck the filming location and swept much of it away."
