Lots of thoughts recently. Everything feels plastic.

I could go on and on about why all that AI "art" is bad. I could mention theft, lack of creativity, it's impact on the work field and environment, but countless people have already said all that. I wanted to touch on something that to me is the most utterly wrong about all of it.

Art is more than just something pretty to look at or listen to. It's therapeutic. It's a form of communication. A tool for human connection. It's a pure, human need.

Support real artists ☀️

the amount of faith it takes to transition and believe it can get better is holier than any church

Fall in love with the world around you. Fall in love with the sound of birds, with thunderstorms, with the little flowers that grow against odds in random places. Fall in love with the people and places you can build a home in.

Two things you wouldn’t think go together… but in my world they do 🤭 a small series of illustrations I did for fun! All of these are in my print shop if you’d like to have a little dino for yourself lol

Racists love old shit because they imagine history as a series of wins for the Correct People instead of generation after generation of opportunists just sweeping their accumulated wealth into progressively taller houses.

Those same shitheads build "empires" because there's a point where it becomes cheaper to pay a bunch of people to do violence on their behalf than it is to entomb themselves in walls strong enough to keep out an entire world of people poorer than they are.

And for the most part, it works because your average person's tolerance for pain and violence is pretty low as long as they can eat and sleep out of the rain.

So in a sense the greatest shitbirds in the world thrive on an overabundance of human kindness mercy, and lower-level greed. That doesn't make them smarter or stronger than anyone but it does make them monstrous fucking parasites.

Maybe that's Traditional Human Politics.

The pride bats are back! I thought it’d be nice to regroup them into a matching poster. The border on the moths one was changed to a rainbow gradient and some colours were tweaked for better readability/printing. Original posts: Pride moths LGBATs 1 & 2

'people can write whatever the fuck they want' and 'its good to approach writing about sensitive topics with some diligence and forethought' are statements which can and do coexist

I don’t WANT a career. I want to cuddle and sleep and eat and read and create and love and be loved.

having a freeze response to stress is so funny in the context of normal adult stressors. millions of years of evolution are trying to tell me that the email will not find me if i stay very still and do nothing

cats being capable of understanding accidents and even giving you a little head bonk to let you know you're still cool makes it infinitely funnier that they don't understand when you're trying to help them

cats when you step on their tail: i'll admit that was rather ouchie, but given the lifetime of goodwill and trust between us, one must conclude this booboo is but a fluke.

cats when you try to get their claws unstuck from the couch covering: this nefarious bitch has never had a single honorable intention in their dishonest and shameful life, this must be one of their sinister plots or perhaps even an attempt on my life,
