Houstonian suburban traditional cartoonist and dedicated stop-motion animator. Currently doing 2D animation on YouTube at Otto Crosswind.
Things you may not have noticed since doing Carl Jung’s shadow work:

1) your life passively improves
2) peace just is the default state
3) you notice signs more efficient
4) you’re more sensitive to danger
5) being present is doable, mostly
6) you cannot give up on life
7) being a good person works

I’m getting a bit of encouragement lately to progress my 2D animation workflow between Blender and Tahoma2D in 2026. I’m thankful for all the warm wishes and solid advice, and I want you guys to know that I make my 2D short films from a place of passion and heart. If I could make them better I will.

Not to be self-centered but the thing is even *successful* fullt-time freelancers get fucked by these layoffs, because now there are many many more people fighting for even more limited scraps
I’ve been full-time freelance since 2019 and have mostly been able to make it work but I take no pleasure into welcoming other journalists into this world

Very excited to see how far this gets with 2D animation. It's already the most intuitive free animation tool and i still appreciate that its backed by a smaller dedicated community of like minded artists and animators. hope to be helpful someday with my own projects. love from H-Town, Otto Crosswind

96% of you are really weird.
'for an estimated 4% of people, this mental imagery is weak or absent. When researchers ask them to imagine something familiar, they might have a concept of what it is, and words and associations might come to mind, but they describe their mind’s eye as dark or even blank.'
Many people have no mental imagery. What’s going on in their brains?
People with aphantasia are offering a window into consciousness.

Friends! Roleplayers! It's alive! ✨

I'm thrilled to announce my TTRPG, Steam + SPITE. Set in the Age of Steam, play as a grimy outlaw who is a threat to the system of plutocratic oppression not because they were chosen, but because they're TOO PISSED OFF TO DIE.

Kickstarting soon, follow today!

I am warming up to BlueSky really well in a matter of only a few days. I really enjoy posting here and reposting other content about nature and animation and some critical forms of politics. If I was like this on Twitter I would not have tried out blue sky so I’m grateful I joined this platform! ~<3
