My first gallery show!! This summer I was part of an art festival, one of the galleries hosting it invited me to be a visiting artist!
I am so unbelievably proud of myself. If you’d like to see them in person (and some incredible work from other artists) I’m at the Fox Clark gallery in Indiana PA

A Muslim Democratic Socialist who unequivocally supports trans rights just won a landslide in NYC, despite establishment Dems spending millions of dollars trying to tank his campaign
Maybe the establishment Dem losing streak is a skill issue idk

Day 3 Nicotine free. The withdrawal is kicking my ass. On the up side, the manic productivity has been great for getting my house cleaned up

I really love this Vincent Van Gogh quote:
"To do good work one must eat well, be well housed, have one's fling from time to time, smoke one's pipe, and drink one's coffee in peace."
No romanticizing the starving artist. Van Gogh said UBI all the way.

People probably wouldn't celebrate the deaths of horrible people if they had been held to account for their many many many crimes while they were alive.

Hate to do this but can you guys share this tiktok around on that app because a dude is stealing my art and designs and is running a dropshipping scam to steal people's money and the copyright forms are literally not doing their job. I can't let my work be used like this

Everytime I sit down to paint I have a challenge in mind. An expression or a lighting or color challenge. Something to give it a little spice.
Unfortunately this means that I am 100% of the time making things harder on myself than they need to be.

I hate AI so much. But more than that- I hate the hype and lies. Large language models do represent a big step forward in certain areas of computing. Specifically in the area of natural language processing. (NLP) 5 or 6 years ago NLP was a brass ring that people were striving for, and LLMs do - 🧵1

Plein aire painting is so wonderful. It is so calming. Just sitting outside and focusing very carefully on something in the distance. I’m pretty sure that’s a kind of meditation
