I think it would be really funny to play a campaign of Dungeons and Dragons AND DRAGONS and still not have a dragon in the story XD

Happy #PortfolioDay
I'm Hampus, I do concept art for video games and illustrations for ttrpg thingys.
I am not looking for work at the moment but hope I can borrow you to look at my personal piece "Divine Pandemonium"

Check it out in full hampusviklander.com/divine-pandemonium-k6bd-homage

Coloured digital drawing of a packed cityscape, filled with odd creatures ranging from red flying skulls, witches flying on brooms and demons bartering with small gnomes. In its centre is a large worm like figure clad in several golden masks, adorned with purple eyes peers down at the cityscape below

👩🏾 Black furry creatives? artists? musicians?
👨🏾‍🦱 Black furry writers, lyricists, poets?
🧕🏾 Black fursuit makers? craftmakers?
👵🏾 Black furries who wanna hype up other Black furries?

Let's make a thread of some Black work 👇🏾

(Non-Black furries: boost work you like, but enjoy our greatness in silence 🤫)

queer spaces are so overly racially biased it makes me upset every time.

the lack of boosting black positivity or just interacting with black art is upsetting. black art, people, and characters aren't viewed in the same desirability as white characters.

Don't even want to think about that fight let alone speak about it, but she should have to resign based on what I learned about that Green Paper from civil servants behind the scenes

They knew the paper was a mess and they pushed it anyway

They did damage to disabled people

I was one of the leaders of Scrap The Green Paper because I & my friends were suicidal after learning proposals for ~84% of disabled to be pushed into work

I've not recovered from pushing myself to fight it, nor my friends

I'm so broken & Humphreys wants a house in the park on our backs

Since I'm talking about this, does anybody need line editing or copy editing on their books or movement resources? I would love to help nurture your works about making change or understanding the current moment and its history. I've got 20 years of experience and I will never ever use "AI"/LLMs.

I made a connection that has helped me shift my career to align more closely with my values in ways that are life-changing for me.

She hasn't a great record on animal welfare, for which she had responsibility as a minister. Opposed bans on fox hunting and coursing, presided over legislation around dog breeding establishments which essentially treat puppy farming as an alternative farm enterprise. The famous letter.

SUPERBATOBER 03: YO-YO -- An annoyed Batgirl's got Harley Quinn tied and strung up, who's laughing while bouncing off a construction beam. Good news: Babs has Harley captured. Bad news: I don't think she's going to get any answers from her. What a day of ups and downs.

The stress and worry that woman caused is off the scale.
People with disabilities were looking at the results of similar 'initiatives' in the UK and seeing increased poverty, sufficating despair, official bullying, and suicides.

Taoiseach on Six One says Fianna Fáil did due diligence by asking him if he ever had an issue with a tenant.

"We asked him and he said 'No'."

I mean, it's not the most comprehensive interrogation of the issue is it?

I nearly begged my therapist for a FND diagnosis. I’d done EMDR & knew I could do the work - anything to feel better. He looked at me w/such compassion I could feel it through the screen, & told me he was sorry but long covid was physiological.
