We are currently in need of extra money to replace my roommate's broken desk chair, which is almost certainly the culprit of a hospital visit yesterday due to a slipped disk in his back. My commissions are open! Please share if you are able. ❤️

hey, if you're a commission artist just starting out, DON'T message random people out of the blue asking them to commission you. i know times are hard but it's quite rude and you're just shooting yourself in the foot; work on your art and grow your audience organically and clients will come.

So anyway, I created an updated version of that XdanielArt chart that contains all the Adobe alternatives since there are a lot more now than there were back when that list was originally made, and Adobe has continued to get shittier and shittier.

One bright side to being forced to live in an AI slop tornado is now I see my artistic mistakes as incredibly endearing. The human machine of my body made that weird line. My worst day of drawing is completely untouchably better than anything AI will ever produce until the heat death of the universe

Y'all really need to chill when someone doesn't add alt text. Mistakes do happen. People sometimes rush and forget that's okay. You can add a reply with alt text. I legit have been called stupid, and other names for a misclick involving alt text today.
This is not the way.

"if I just work hard enough, eventually I'll make it"
No. cause if you don't make it that means you didn't work hard enough. And that isn't fair to your efforts.
there are so many factors outside of your hands. So much success is luck, and failure is not always your fault. cut yourself some slack.

I miss this.
It was such a perfect lil’ hub to not just watch everyone hang out, but also to grow berries, EV train, and even find rare treasures in.
I used it quite often, yet I still shudder to think I took this feature for granted.

I've read some good 15 or so books so far this year, and it is wild to me how often at damn near exactly the 60% mark, a major turning point occurs which will inevitably change the characters forever. I know writing is somewhat formulaic but it is fascinating to see it play out in real books.

![[OC] The whole crew from left to right: Aisha, Calvin, Walter, Cocoa, Zari, Frankie and Kareena from my comic project PowerTwined.
A group illustration of 6 people and a black cat hissing at the viewer. A logo appears at the top right saying "PowerTwined" in altered Baskerville font. Zari holding a very angry Cocoa. Aisha looks at Cocoa very confused. Kareena with her eyes closed and shrugs like it's nothing. Frankie with his arms crossed smirking at the viewer. Calvin giving the thumbs up while hugging Walter in a friendly choke-hold lol. His glasses are lop-sided.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:vbgjez7vmslstftubp5de67l/bafkreiamaplla7sznk27lrxvpruy7hq5vsublfb2624njkn4yusw63tow4@jpeg)

I refuse to give AI the ✨ emoji.
It’s already coming for my livelihood. It can’t have my favorite emoji.
Please be advised that I will continue to use ✨ to mean *ooooh it’s magic* or *the emoji that came before this one is now shiny and special*.

The first chapter of Under the Whispering Door (by TJ Klune) is honestly a work of art. Equal parts stellar character introduction and satirization of business mogul personalities, I laughed out loud more than once re-reading it.

Comic Sans, my beloved, I'm so sorry I ever doubted you.
(for context: makes for a great first draft font when you're writing; takes you out of the stuffy seriousness of writing in any other font; plus i find it easy on my eyes? I dunno i think ppl give it a lot of shit for no good reason)

Now that people are joining bluesky in large numbers I'll share this old comic of mine. I made it for Twitter, but as you can see, people over there never listened. Maybe this time... So just block, don't dunk on bigots!

Discomfort is not harm. Internalize that.
Discomfort is not harm, and if you're made uncomfortable by the work of a total stranger who does not know you exist, you can just process on your own and move on. You do not need to make it anyone's "fault" and no one needs to be "held accountable" for it.

If you dislike something or it makes you uncomfortable, that’s okay! But you don’t need to let the creator know. You don’t need to let anyone know, honestly. You can just ignore it and move on with your life. Fandom is about enjoying the things you like, not bashing the things you hate.
I woke up in the night thinking about this & will forget if I don't wing it into the universe right now, so...
what are some etiquette tips you'd give to someone new to fandom spaces?
