A couple months back, when I was getting that profile art done, I gave Destiny an idea for a depiction of a climatic scene from the Murder Drones story I'm writing. The rest is history.
Please support them! They're amazing to work with?
As for why J and O are fighting? You'll have to wait and see...
TWO Comic pages I made for @jmanva.bsky.social of their #MurderDrones OC and Serial designation J. Thank you SO MUCH for commissioning me. (some robo-gore warning tho)

It's such a sad thing about human nature - say you absolutely loathed a book and everyone wants to know what it was.

Mention a book you loved, recommend it for readers, and the world is a chorus of crickets.

Y'all just want to hate on stuff

No Players Online - the full version of the viral abandoned online FPS horror game - is back on Steam. 🎉

The game was falsely removed weeks ago, just after launching, which has severely impacted the studio's survivability.

Please spread the word, and support it! ❤️

It's that giving time of year again, so this is a reminder that no matter how they try to dress it up, the Salvation Army is not a charity.

This right here is why I call indie productions "the last bastions of free creativity".
Knights of Guinevere, Far-Fetched, just to name a couple, are both very queer-coded shows that wouldn't have had a snowball's chance in hell with any of the mainstream studios. That goes for games, too!
Indie animation and game development is here to stay because it MUST be. Otherwise soon enough there won’t exist a sector of the industry willing to tell or support the stories already starting to be snuffed out.
Not great that a foreign state that regularly executes queer folks is now going to own the major AAA publisher that most consistently supported queer stories and characters.

There's so much "I hate that shitty show but I'm still drawing fanart of it. Here's my much better yet extremely convoluted redesign" art that's very good but so pervasive that I'm scared people think I'm agreeing and doing it too.
No sorry I am a fan ☺️ I love it this is fanart sorry

"I love this redesign, I wish it was the actual one, the original is such shit, you somehow improved it. They really should've done this instead"

Thank you but don't get me wrong, I love the original and I draw these pictures out of appreciation not because I want to do it better, just saying

Just the level of casual, demanding entitlement is astonishing. "Explain yourself to me! Justify your decisions to me!"

What a weird, WEIRD way to treat a stranger on the internet.

I'm only seeing a fraction of a fraction of what she gets and I can tell it would drive me absolutely insane to feel the full force. It is a miracle that anyone could remain moderately sane in the face of that.

Viv Medrano replied to me one time yesterday and ever since then my replies have been nothing but people replying to her trying to argue over an incredibly insignificant detail in one episode of her show, or grind axes over other grievances.

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"
