Welcome to Bluesky, Twitter refugees! 🙂 Methinks you have a thing or two to learn as you explore your new home 😜 We call posts skeets! 😂 There's no ads... yet! 😅 A few people can't take a joke, but that's alright 🙃 you're also allowed to threaten the mods with hammers 🔨

Jordan Peterson critically ill with pneumonia, neuropathy, and sepsis

Jordan Peterson is sick, and suffering from "spiritual attacks" (and surely it's not the drugs, or long COVID, or a meat-only diet, or...)

A new report suggests that the disastrous opening weekend for the Jared-Leto-starring sequel may lead to Disney pulling the plug on the Grid once and for all.

In leaked Gamefreak documents Pokemon gen 8 was originally going to be prehistoric themed and wait a second, thats my old T. rex artwork?? What the hell thats so cool???

Screenshot of design documents for Pokemon gen 8 discussing prehistoric animals. To the side there is a small squished version of my old fluffy T. rex drawing used to demonstrate the animal for this document. I have no idea why this specific rex I did took off but it was never meant to be an accurate one even at the time, folks just latched onto it and it haunts me.

weird phenomenon i keep encountering where “writers” correctly identify the soul-sucking danger that large language models pose to their craft, but for some reason have no problem using generative AI to make images. like….are you stupid!!!!

The Irish Blood Transfusion Service has made an urgent appeal for blood donations as current supplies for most groups have fallen to under three days of stock.

Ahead of the upcoming bank holiday, the IBTS said it is struggling to stay on top of demand.jrnl.ie/6844970

Urgent appeal for blood donations as supplies for most groups run 'critically low'

So, I stumbled across this animation (left) that a professional studio made for a commercial client last year and a lot of it seems VERY familiar to my 2023 'PEAS' animation (right)...

In losing my animation job and pivoting to another career, I have lost 91% of my gross income. Went from feeling like I was thriving for the first time since moving out of my parents’ to being back under the poverty line. It’s really, really rough out here

✨ Zandra Illustration ➜ Shop Open @shop.zandraillustration.com · 5d

This is not a call for pity but more to put into perspective how 2025 has been impacting a lot of artists:

Between losses of sales, wholesale, tariffs, and fewer corporate clients, I have lost 50% of my gross income this year as a full-time graphic designer and artist.
