I turned 30 about a month ago, organized my own solo exhibition in the middle of Pasar Besar Ipoh, and most importantly, my ultimate goal this year is to make 30 mini zines to symbolize what turning 30 feels like to me.

For anarchy day a spread from the Beautiful Idea "If we don't act in pursuit of the things that we consider meaningful in the present, that compounds the tragedy that is underway, it makes it a travesty. If we don't defend what we love, that suggests that we are not loosing anything anyway."
Two panels of a comic. On the left two children read from a book while they huddle under a blanket.
From them grow vines and spill onto the next page. At the bottom a family plants seeds which grow into a person holding a big pot, a parent lifting their baby up, and two figures hugging. Above them are three black block figures throwing and lighting cocktails. At the top a women holds a spherical splodey with two black flags. 

Text rises from above the children and reads.

Perhaps we have no future. That may be true. 

On a long enough timeframe, we'll all be dead and the earth will be eaten by the sun - that much seems certain. Climate change may kill us off along with all the other species that are being destroyed. Yet that doesn't make it any less beautiful to take action in the present. It doesn't make anything less meaningful to. 

The present is real, no matter what may happen in the future. 

If we don't act in pursuit of the things that we consider meaningful in the present, that compounds the tragedy that is underway, it makes it a travesty. If we don't defend what we love, that suggests that we are not loosing anything anyway. If we impose that tragedy on ourselves renouncing our ability to dream, it is as if we deserve it. 

But, if we act in a way that shows that the world could be different, that will give the tragedy that we're experiencing weight. Then there will have been something beautiful in the world when it comes to an end, if only our desire for something else. The fact of its having been will hang, something that cannot be erased from history. Even if our dreams cannot come true, we can honor them thus.

#CoastCard 8, acrylic on wood. Batik Lacewing, a local name for this friend that's not so commonly used anymore. #InsertAnInvert Motion - Flight #FavCember, adding my fave insect to the mix 🦋 #CoastCard2024 #art #painting #nature #artists #SciArt 🐡 #bugSky #insect #forest #PleinAir
A painting in acrylic on wood by Dhiyanah Hassan of a orange, black, and white lacewing butterfly perched on a leafy stem that's sticking out from a bush growing off-frame. Behind this is the base of a large tree covering the left bottom corner of the painting, with hints of foliage selectively framing the right and upper right sides of the surface. The background is left blank so that the natural wood texture of the surface comes through, giving off a semi-silhouetted look for the painted sections of this piece.

A collage of cropped images from artwork by Dhiyanah Hassan showcasing eyes from their many illustrations. The left column shows animal or non-humanoid eyes and the right column shows humanoid eyes of difference styles. Below that are two circular illustrations displaying a whale's eye underwater, and a human's eye adorned with rainbows.,

This is a friendly reminder that even if you can't support an artist you love through monetary means, your retweets have a MASSIVE amount of power here on Bluesky. Since there's no algorithm, every RT you give makes a post more visible to others!

Card of the Day | 27.6 Eight of Keys Somehow we got into a business that isn’t ours. “Not my monkey, not my circus,” you say, but your mind keep wandering into the situation. Ask yourself, to whom do you owe these worries and concern? And then, formulate a way to be a help.
A tarot card, next to it is a red triceratops plushie.

Card of the Day | 26.6 Four of Elixirs And perhaps, all of our emotional stirrups were meant to highlight the priorities that we try to bury so deep at the back of our head. Procrastination that cries for help, but unheard. Support and validation can go a long way today.
A tarot card on a mini yellow chair stand. A Kuromi plushie next to it.

today i woke up remembering someone unalived themselves because of covid pressured poverty and a bunch of people organised a protest some time around it. "organizers" gained promotion in career, and now no longer wearing mask while the pandemic is still ongoing. so many thoughts.
