I heard new people are making their way to Bluesky today. It seems like a good time to remind everyone that I have some starter packs filled with amazing artists to follow 🥰

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'

The Irish Blood Transfusion Service said it needs 12,000 donations over the next four weeks to respond to patient need and meet hospital demand.

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)...

Look, when someone asks "hey Ian have you ever considered penis cleavage?", I can't just ignore it can I?? I'm too honourable to ignore that.

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

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.

You gently run your hand through the rack. You can feel it—pure cotton, rich wool, Irish linen. The plump buttonholes are handsewn; the buttons attached with a firm shank. You flip the price tag over. It's affordable

You buy the jacket and go home, which is only 15 mins away. Your apt is $600/month

One of the craziest stories I've seen in a long time. If you think Trump and his administration are extreme and depraved, just wait until you learn about the young guns who are positioning themselves to take over the reigns in the next few decades
