i think you should just not include restrictive or disordered eating in your story if you're not willing to do the work to address it tbh

Don't have new art atm, but I'll repost some old papercraft illustrations for #invertefest

Fried Egg Jellyfish 🖌️🐠
4 fried egg jellyfish made of paper swim on a painted paper background. The jellyfish show different amounts of detail and are at different proximities to the viewer. Their tops look like fried eggs, while their tentacles are white, purple, and orange. the background has blue paper to show light breaking through a green and purple sponge-painted background.

This is unreal. An AUSA talking like that in open court is about as close as you can come to a total breakdown. Never heard of anything like it.
SHOCKING FEDERAL COURT MOMENT: DOJ attorney Julie Le, "The system sucks, this job sucks" to Judge Jerry Blackwell who pressed her on why so many court orders are being ignored by ICE/Trump admin. She asked to be held in contempt just so she could get 24 hours of sleep. @FOX9

deadlands reef fishes and what not. whilst most of this project's aesthetic isnt that colorful, i like to think in places such as most tropical seas there's a pop of color here and there.

It really bums me out that Klobuchar, who was instrumental in normalizing Trump as just another political adversary, is almost certainly going to be the next governor of Minnesota, a state currently paying a severe price for that normalization of fascism.

Here's all the Klobuchar v. Republican matchups from that SurveyUSA poll

Best Klobuchar lead is +20, worst is +14

Thi Dua Vang legally came to the U.S. two years ago. So when ICE showed up, she thought it must have been a mistake.

illustration of two, cute, small brown bears on a gingham picnic blanket looking up at the stars. one bear looks in a telescope while the other is on their back pointing things out. there is a tray of cookies, fruit, and vegetables on the blanket with them. you can see falling stars and made-up constellations overhead of them. the perspective is incorrect and wonky but cute, and everything is colored in pinks, purples, yellows, and oranges.

This Slime Rancher #art I made at the beginning of the year is one of my favorite things I have ever drawn. I looove geometric botanicals 🌱🌾

#vectorart
Fruits of the Far, Far Range A series of 6 botanical illustrations drawn with vectors. Each has the fruit, stem, leaf, flower, and seeds of a different plant. The art is very geometric, angular, and colorful, with each image filling the space of one square.
