Hi everyone,

Paxton got a notice for eviction unless they get all of the 6k that's overdue in the next month. Paxton doesn't expect to completely get caught up with rent, but every dollar helps.

At our own booth, Alkemy and I will be doing 50% off on our art and trinkets, while also hosting the activity of the "Friend Wall".

The friend wall, is, well, a wall you can write on! Okay, in this case there'll be paper over that section of wall, but you can doodle all sorts of things on it!

are you also as sick of seeing AI generated posters/flyers/etc in public as I am? I made some Big stickers about it and will be selling packs of them at future shows 🫶

Why am I so against generative AI in games?

Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

Posting for a friend - helping Shay is one tangible thing you could do today to make the world better. She has been working so hard and a setback like this is devastating for her, and the sort of thing that gets families torn apart.

She only has cashapp - $shaybayy98

#mutualaid #mutualaidsky 💸💕
Picture of Shay, a Black and Indigenous woman with two puffs in her hair, a pink shirt, camo shorts, and black crocs, with her youngest daughter, a 1 year old Black and Indigenous girl with 3 little hair puffs, a pastel orange dress, pink leggings, and little pink sneakers. Hi everyone. This is incredibly hard for me to write, but I’m reaching out because my family is in a moment of crisis that I can’t overcome on my own. I am an Afro-Indigenous woman, a full-time worker, and the sole provider for my two daughters — my 10-year-old and my 1-year-old — as well as the primary caregiver for my own mother. Every day, I do everything in my power to keep us safe, fed, and moving forward. We’ve been living in a hotel after losing our home when part of our household income disappeared. Since then, I’ve been trying to keep some sense of stability for my girls while searching tirelessly for a place we can call home again. But recently, things took a devastating turn: our car was towed with all of our belongings inside. Our car isn’t just a vehicle — it’s how I get to work, how I take my daughters where they need to be, how I care for my mom, and right now, it’s where we keep almost everything we own. The towing and storage fees have been piling up every day. Now I’m faced with impossible choices: food or transportation, diapers or gas, work or getting the car released. I’m trying so hard to stay strong for my daughters. My 10-year-old feels everything, and my baby depends on me for everything. They deserve stability. They deserve safety. They deserve a chance. We are trying to raise enough to get our car out — to keep me employed, protect our belongings, and give my girls the stability they desperately need while we work toward finding a home again.

Thinking about Elyse Meyers discourse and it’s got me thinking of reviews.

reviews REALLY HELP authors sell books. I’m trad pubbed and my publisher encourages me to get reader reviews. Reviews also are one metric used to prove my writing continues to be a good investment.

The temps are dropping and many people in Minneapolis are prevented from accessing stable food and shelter.

Please make a donation to @supplydepotmpls.bsky.social (recurring one is best!) to help connect people with the resources they need.

I stand by my position that AI is a public health blight and has no place in Healthcare.

I will probably be furious about this hypocrisy until I die.

Goodnight.
🖼️ Moon Meadow, Josie Wren.
A painting titled Moon Meadow by artist Josie Wren; a large, personified moon with a sleeping face hovering above a dense meadow of foliage. The full moon is set in the night sky dotted with small stars. The moon has closed eyes and rosy cheeks. The lower two-thirds of the image are filled with tall, dark green and yellowish-green grass and ferns. Several small, white, moth-like butterflies or flowers are scattered throughout the lower part of the meadow.

Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics"

guess I'm built different, every time I'm out trying to see night sky stuff I frequently think about how much light pollution is entirely preventable with just a tiny bit of regulation
Basic light pollution diagram showing four different streetlight set ups ranging from more light pollution on the left to less light pollution on the right. The most pollution option, labelled "very bad" is a street lamp with a round uncovered bulb on top, making a sphere of light in the air. The next option, labelled "bad" has a tiny cap on top, that limits the upward pollution a bit. The "better" option is mostly uncovered on top, limiting pollution above the streetlight. The final option, labelled "best" has a full shroud overtop, limiting the light to only below the streetlight, where it is needed for pedestrians and vehicles.

Some of you might be like, "wait, there's a fire escape plan type thing for spiralling?" and yes! It varies depending on the person, and a therapist can help you figure out what works best for you, but I can help with some of the classics.

#watercolor #wip i'm hoping to have done in time for the next art event. Thinking i might keep making rooms like this, they take a long time but they're enjoyable.

I'm planning to make clay planet ornaments too. The novel is at over 54k atm, quite a bit of words still to go.
on black paper and unfinished, watercolors show parts of a cozy library with a fireplace, lantern on a floor stand, a candle on a shelf, a clock on the mantel, a pet bed, a pet blanket on the floor, a rug, a torn piece of paper on the floor, a cat toy, a rug, a chair with a pillow, blanket, headphones, a side table with a blue and silver steaming mug, a book, there's a window on a blurry wintery scene, the floor is wooden, there's cabinets on either side of the fireplace and an empty picture frame on its chute.
