I'm not mad about it, but I gotta start finding Rembrandt lighting for selfies if I'm gonna do these.
A seft portrait drawn in soft pastel with bright yellow and orange background/lighting. The likeness is adequate but the construction of the face is lacking, with the eyes on a different plane than the rest of the face. Across the bottom the words 'who is zed nope?' are scrawled in orange.

Hey @bsky.app @safety.bsky.app @support.bsky.team please unsuspend Goran immediately.

Goran is a great person, a great artist, and the whole anti-Palestine thing youre on is one of those "Ford funding Hitler" disasters you remember being shocked and dismayed by when you learned of in middle school.
An art piece by Goran Gligovic of a sword resting against a battered tree in front of a rocky dungeon entrance amidst a snowy field. The text says UNBAN GORAN GLIGOVIC.

Here's another good'un.
(Performed here: youtu.be/MGSdYFR50Y8)
charlesoberonn: The song "Jolene" but the singer never stops describing Jolene, going into more and more details and getting more and more disturbing until you're not sure what Jolene is except that you're afraid her. prettyokayray: your teeth are sharp / your mouth agape your claws rend flesh / there's no escape from the judgement of the Eldritch One, Jolene blad-the-inhaler: He screams about you in his sleep and when he wakes, does naught but weep in terror, of the one they call Jolene butts-for-days: blackening the summer skies with burning wings and countless eyes we tremble at the sight of you, Jolene animatedamerican: we cower here beneath your gaze that sets the earth and sky ablaze have mercy at the end of days, Jolene

Happy 40th birthday to me! Thank you all for helping me through another year and firmly into the middle ages. 🎈Rumour has it people share your #art when it's your birthday, but I don't know if that's true! Maybe time will tell
A digital painting of an undead woman in a red, flowing dress. She is standing on top of some stairs outside, her head framed by a pale blue moon, and reaching her bony hand toward the viewer. A digital painting of a naked woman kneeling before a gigantic honey-colored flower with a skull in the center. The woman is rendered in shades of purple and red, her head cast back, eyes closed and lips smiling. Her long black hair is flowing down, covering her butt. Her arms are stretched behind her, bent slightly at the elbow A digital painting of the character Vampirella. She is sitting on a brown stone pedestal with a grotesque face engraved into it. Her knee is raised and she is resting her crossed arms on her knee, looking at the viewer. An angel head with spread wings is embossed on the wall behind her. A digital painting of a female Aasimar Hunter, wearing a metallic-blue mythril armour and gladiator-style skirt and plated boots. She is holding a great sword in one hand, and a stream of magic circles her other hand. Her hair is silvery white, and there is a halo behind her head. Behind her, a gryphon springs into action, wings spread.

The new hotness is blocking accounts that conform with one's politics but are clearly farming outrage and fear. They might be bots! They might not be! But whatever they are, they're not helping!

You have all seen this book as meme but I own it as myco nerd and the level of bonkers is as promised
A copy of all that the rain promises, and more…a pocket guide to western mushrooms After a frantic few minutes, I came to the edge of a glade and there, perched on a large lichened rock, was a horned, barefoot Panlike figure, nimbly playing a flute. The others stood there spellbound; like me they were laden with lec-cinums and had been hopelessly lost. Then the horned figure led us, like the Pied Piper, on a merry, meandering march through that glistening, mossy, mushroom-lush wonderland. It was unbelievable — herds of hawk wings, throngs of lofty leccinums, giant fairy rings of elegant amanitas, and logs so thick with clustered caps their bark couldn't be seen. We must have looked like wood nymphs as we danced along together, completely caught up in the abundance and exuberance of the moment. Finally he delivered us to the gravel road, where our abandoned van stood like an empty, ominous shell from some remote and irrelevant war. We offered our savior the mush-rooms, which he, having a forest full of them, declined. He did allow himself to be photographed, however. My First Mushroom Hunt It was 25 years ago. There were plenty of mushrooms but no good mushroom books for California. People used to say things like if it peeled easily or if it grew on trees it was all right. Well, I picked a yellowish-orange mushroom and since it grew near an oak I thought it was a chanterelle. I cooked it for dinner, and spent the next couple days with both ends open, delirious. It was a jack o' lantern that I ate, and I'm glad I did because it humbled me. It taught me to be careful, to be discerning, to learn more. Now I eat chanterelles all the time, and there's no way I could confuse one with a jack o' lantern. —Simon Kelly Girls Just Wanna Have Fungus Dashing Roberto Mortillero has thrown the perfect party: Shaggy Manes, Coccoli, Blewits, Bleeding Milk Caps, Matsutake, and the Prince, each with a human escort. As often happens in California, the party ends when the host is carried out on a stretcher. The following account of the Mushroom Party is taken from the Diary of Valley Unit "Gagme" Sappa, and is reprinted with permission of the author's roommates, who are dying to see her face when she finds out it's missing. Dear Diary: That total babe Roberto had this party tonight - I mean, if you could call it a party, like no keg! But all these babes came anyway, and I had on like this radical sequined tube top with my leopard-spotted spandex pedal pushers and high-heeled sandals, and like the babes musta thought I looked real Boss cuz they really gave me the hairy eyeball. Like it started when I went to the hardware store cuz I read this article that all the babes go there, but like, you go up to a babe and

A digital painting in the gothic romance style of a dark-clad woman standing outside in the moonlight. Her hair and veil are blowing in the wind, and there is a dark building far in the background.
