So hard to get out of bed when the sheets are freshly washed and I know it’s chilly outside.

do you think this means we’ll finally get more games for Mac? I really wanna play Peak 🥲

anyone know any vector software that can blend/transform 2 objects like this? i know how to do it in illustrator but neither of my machines has it nowadays and affinity doesn't have this function

I love my chosen field of study, but there are a lot of people who if you try to drag them out of their apartments, they turn into Mother Gothel from Tangled. "Ruffians, thugs! Poison ivy, quicksand!"

I had a dream last night that I was working back at my last barista job and the drive thru area had been upgraded by placing a gigantic spring underneath the plate of asphalt at the drive thru window, which was connected to a button that let me launch the car if the customer was rude lmaoooo

Final Fantasy VII (1997): The Highwind, artist unknown

how can people write daily fics for kinktober this shit is so difficult???? i've only done 5 and i dont think i can keep going 😭😭

Sometimes I wonder if it’s not right for me teach critical writing when I no longer write it or read it. Then I think doing a thing well and teaching a thing well are not the same thing, and I teach this thing very well. Anyway it’s my students’ critical voices Design needs most right now.

May I interest you in TheWarmMachine.com 👀🤖? Gonna try to get TheLuckyMachine.com out for the holidays but it's incredibly close to the holiday cutoff so no promises.

Looking at art and reading novels, these are the things that help me the most to think honestly about what it means to be alive right now.

"Of course, development of Star Wars: Eclipse continues, and we are eager to share more with you in the future." - David Cage This upcoming Quantic Dream game, announced in December 2021, will be set in the High Republic Era. I guess we won't have to wait long to get a new look on this game.

David Lynch's Dune (1984): Unused poster art by Drew Struzan

I wish USamericans wrote the number of the day and the MONTH'S NAME on emails because seeing stuff like 11/10 scrambles the hell out of my brain 😩

As I'm digging my way out of the muck and trying to reclaim my own space and sanity, reminder that I have a 18+ account that I'll slowly start to share work on too <3 @only-jaws.bsky.social

You're not a bad artist, you just need practice. You're not a bad artist, you just need practice. You're not a bad artist, you just need practice. You're not a bad artist, you just need practice. You're not a bad artist, you just need practice.

No. As a general rule, I reserve top third for type and the publisher handles the rest. We dedicated a newsletter to the topic recently if you'd like a more detail on that: theartofmichaelwhelan.substack.com/p/setting-type

Somehow I accumulated two care mistakes and instead of an Abra-eyed yellow cat I got Monzaemon lmao #tmgc #tamagotchi #digimon

I’m surprised people get surgery to get blue eyes because you cannot fucking see if there’s any amount of sunlight outside. It’s a curse, you’re a creature of the night now.

I saw the best surviving original drawings in the world and am no closer to my goal

counterpoint; social media SHOULD be boring after a while so that you can log off and do things. you should log off for 22 hrs a day and if you’re only here for two or less there is TONS of stuff

omg they have public executions 😭

maybe a hot take i dunno but i find that many negative reviews on games i like boil down to "this game that was intended as a slow, progressive experience to be enjoyed over several weeks was not enjoyable when i played 80 hours in a week so i could be amongst the first to post a review"

i saw a tweet the other day that went something like “sure twitter is bad but bluesky is boring” and for one, maybe social media should not suck you in for hours on end; and for two, have u seen the public meltdowns here they’re news for days

*strikes out the word «problem» and adds the word «blessing» instead*

the insistence to use "clanker" when criticizing GenAI feels so silly when "slop" has been here the whole time

LRT we made nerds the cultural mainstream and look where it got us. As a jock bully I say perhaps it’s time people should give us a chance to make this right—

These were all on by default for me :\ It's not perfect, but it's made the site usable for me again! There will always be some that slip through, especially if people don't tag things properly, but it's certainly better than before!

ah, it appears I 𝘥𝘰 have a little extra room inside me to loathe him even more than I did already...

Lil bump from yesterday!

could anyone recommend their favorite ceramicists? preferably europe based (for shipping...) looking for cool textures/glazes, who could make cute semi-realistic or stylized animals i have a few names but always appreciate discovering new artists

being up late working on projects for hours and hours, pushing down the thoughts of, they should build a themed hotel that's just the Titanic. Or what I'd have to do to take Mikey Gilder out on a date. Or what if I bought a breadmaker.... or a softserve machine I'm so tired

As someone with a special interest in Monster Hunter icon style Pokemon, these PLA easter egg glyphs in the Pokemon Legends Z-A museum are rad

Seein’ if I can still draw my own characters.🖊️🦑

IT'S DONE... WHAT A GUY

MSc in biology here and I think the same. It's GREAT to have a unifying lingo scientists can use but: Learning the names in Polish, Latin, English, and then *other* names for *the same structure* across different fields ultimately boils down to: Who cares how it's called, if you know you know!

so because blender 4.5 is so incredibly slow when it comes to playback when animating, even when unshaded, I had to switch back to 4.1 just so I could play the damn timeline. I really hope 5.0 fixes this but the way they keep souping up eevee next more and more, usability seems to not matter #b3d

sorry I heard we‘re the new twitter now so I’m adjusting I’m making the newbies feel welcome

How come I can sleep in the middle of the day, no problem, but not at night when sleeping is supposed to happen? Brain just won't stop.

music scene is so dry for me right now 😔

raspberry jam with scrambled eggs,,, 🤤🤤🤤🤤

Tiktok showing me this bitch showing off her army uniform, like why would anybody want to see that? She should burn it.

Hello new followers!! I’m Johanna, a comic artist, writer and illustrator ✍️ I made a YA comic called THE GHOSTKEEPER about a ghost therapist who visits haunted houses to ask ghosts about their feelings! You should read it this spooky season! 👻 I’m quite proud of it! 👇 theghostkeeper.carrd.co

I realized why I love literary classic novels so much is bc I’m reading the final remnants of a long-dead author’s voice, imagination, experience & wisdom. It’s like a visceral form of time travel to engage with something that outlived its creator, but still resonates with ppl so far into the future

I mean if literally any of you thought for a single moment kojima wouldn't be an AI bro you were kidding yourselves hahahahah

How many movies does Leto have to tank before anyone decides that HE's the problem?

I reposted this earlier but I gotta boost it again this is so incredible and makes me want a "VISIONS" type anthology about dinosaurs living as wild animals in our world soooo badly

You never actually have to tell an artist that you don't like their work. You can just keep it to yourself and it's fine, nothing bad will happen to you.

I'm so hyped to play!!!

I’m going for a tattoo today!!!!
