Someone more poetic than me should write something about the feeling of being at a concert (or listening to a live recording) and hearing someone absolutely lose their shit at the opening notes of a specific song. The pure expression of joy. The short glimpse into what the song means to them. Ykwim?

When you get into sewing clothes for yourself you have this image of sitting peacefully at a sewing machine. Which like, yeah, that happens, but you also will spend multiple hours ironing and then later be scrambling around your apartment floor like golum laying out fabric and pattern pieces.

I think about this specific concept sketch of Zelda in the BotW art book at least once a month.

Evilrooster, ranting about this just now: "The only reason it's not a conspiracy theory is none of it makes sense"
But on the other hand, the “Billy” in “hillbilly” is their boy King Billy, AKA William of Orange (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillbil...), so maybe they’re just gliding over Vance’s dip in the Tiber.

My Cassandra joke was going to be really good but nobody seems to believe that.
My Atlas joke has held up pretty well.
I had a joke about Hector but it was kind of a drag

I emerge from the depths of inactivity to once more post art of my OC Elia.
Was toying around with a brush on Procreate that I don't usually use and made this and am very happy with it.

2010. A Japanese woman sits down to take photos of her shiba inu dog for her blog.
Suddenly, a man leaps out of a time portal.
"Sorry, I can't let you do this. I cannot tell you why." She asks: "Is it forbidden knowledge from the future?" He sighs: "No, it's just too fucking stupid to explain."

Playing a videogame with friends for a couple hours and making each other laugh so hard you can't breathe is genuinely and truly priceless experience that I hope everyone gets an equivalent of. (I know videogames arent exactly everyone's thing)

Maybe the solution to my single-ness is just to go look lost at a Hozier concert and hope a kind cottagecore queer femme takes pity on me.

"I'm just going to make a low-stakes low-effort doodle of my character in her fancy ball outfit, I'm not gonna care if it's bad" they said, lying to themself.
Anyway my character went to a ball and I wanted to draw her looking all cute and fancy so I did.

Babymetal is doing it too, sobbing. UK and Europe tour, only coming to London for the UK leg
Every time I see a "UK tour" that only has gigs in England I get closer to committing unforgivable crimes against humanity.

Obviously the government have just spewed out the generic response to this. But I do think it's still worth just constantly pointing out how everything they've said here is wrong. It wasn't independent, it wasn't evidence based, it is a scandal
Uk government is fully committed to killing trans people. Please keep sharing this petition! 🏳️⚧️

On a similar note, "your first sketch/idea is never your best" is one of the worst pieces of advice I've ever gotten.
I wasted a lot of time and energy forcing myself past concepts that I felt strongly about because I was made to believe a better one was out there. Often there just wasn't one.

I don't like "Your first draft will be shitty" as advice, because it's a really negative framing.
I prefer, "You have the freedom to be messy creating your first draft."
Anyone crafter knows what their room looks like mid-creation. Writers should be as free to be as exhuberent and messy.

Did you know that you should end your alt text with a period?
"End alt text with a period, even if it isn’t a full sentence. The period ensures that the screen reader pauses after reading the alt text."
This was a new tip for me. Glad to learn something new!

it's not your fault if you mistook ai for an actual photo or art: it's built to deceive. what's wrong with generative ai isn't that it's ugly or unattractive, it's that it's theft of ideas, work, time, and talent while also destroying the environment.
don't be hard on yourself if it tricks you.
