FA regardless of your personal feelings, is the core of the fandom and losing it would mean YEARS AND YEARS of art, messages, pages, and memorials for people that have passed, would be gone. We CANNOT allow ourselves to rely simply on sites like bsky, twitter, insta, etc. etc. to be our defaults.

Losing my mind while doing some research for my creature design lecture that the closest relative to the maned wolf is the bush dog. Like there has gotta be a fable where the maned wolf took all the leggie from its cousin

How to visit an art museum with someone who isn't used to visiting art museums:

Two social media posts by @pan_juho (Translated from Japanese):

"I love going to art museums, but when I go with someone who's not used to them, if I say, 'If you were a great thief, tell me later which one you'd steal,' they end up looking the exhibits pretty seriously, and that makes me happy.

"Whether you steal something you like or something that seems valuable -> it opens up endless conversation based on what vou liked about it or where you saw value in it, so it's also great as an easy icebreaker for chats after visiting the museum."

'tis the season of art prompt lists. i made my own list for OC-tober this year! 🎨 have fun with it. feel free to do as much or as little as you want, repeat the same prompts multiple times, combine with other lists, whatever is fun for you! #OC-tober #OC-tober2026 #OCsky

TITLE: OC-Tober Art Prompts
Description: it's OC-tober, the perfect excuse to spend the whole month drawing your
original characters. you can approach these prompts with whatever degree
of seriousness and effort you want. this isn't a legally binding list of obligations,
it's just ideas to get the gears turning!
the list: • finish an unfinished piece (maybe even more than one)
• design a new character, or finish an unfinished design
• rework a character design that needs some polish
• design a movie poster or a magazine cover
• draw a single-page comic or short storyboard
• draw your OCs in an alternate universe
• draw your OCs in another art style
• find a blank art meme/challenge to do
• draw something you find difficult, using your OC
• draw an OC at a different age than you usually do
• redraw a scene from a movie or TV show with OCs
• draw an OC cosplaying one of the characters that
inspired their design
• redraw a childhood drawing of an OC
• draw two OCs interacting who you haven't before
• play with alternate color palettes
Footnote: re-interpret however you want or combine with other lists! the only
rules are have fun, take care of your wrists, and don't use AI.

An AI flyer is a brown M&M test. If your event or business is cutting corners by using an AI flyer, where else are you cutting corners? What else are you cheating out on? Why should I be bothered to go somewhere you couldn't be bothered to promote with a little of your own personality?

You know, when you find out that the art you like is made by people you've learned hold views you find wholly repugnant, I don't think you need to disavow ever having enjoyed the art. It's okay to acknowledge you liked or loved that art, but are now putting it aside. That was then, this is now.

Children are people. When you have a kid, you make a person, and that person is not going to follow a script. If you think your kid is one thing and they're actually another, your job as a parent is to support them and set them up for success, not punish them for wanting different pronouns.

Outlier is a really good game. I've enjoyed playing it, but oh well. I don't know what the creator thought was the intersection between people who like niche word games and people who aren't violently opposed to AI, but I think it's just him

Wow, looks like they nuked their whole BlueSky account. Glad I got screenshots

Screenshot of text from Outlier's FAQ page:

Does Outlier use AI?

Yes. Al is one of many tools we use to build and operate Outlier. We use it to help improve the game, develop new features, troubleshoot and fix bugs, assist with customer support, research ideas, and help with writing and development.

Al doesn't run Outlier or make the final decisions. The concept, game design, rules, scoring, product direction, and decisions about what becomes part of Outlier are ours.

The voice of the game is human designed by us, and Al writes in it rather than inventing it.

We see AI the same way we see other technology: as a tool that helps us work faster, solve problems, and build a better experience for players. It helps us create and improve Outlier, not replace the people behind it.

"Storm's Departure" Scissor-Tailed Flycatcher, 16"x20" Oil painting on panel, 2019. 🪶

An oil painting of a Scissor-Tailed Flycatcher. The bird is patterned in grey, cream, and gold colors, with black markings on its back and deeply forked tail. It's perched with its tail partially spread against the wind, and sits on a very twisty dead vine, high up in the air. The background is of some dramatic sunset or sunrise clouds. The watermark reads: copyright 2019 Jennifer Miller featherdust dot com

The specific ADHD euphoria of seeing a new craft you want to try .. and then realising that you already bought the supplies for it like 6 months ago (the first time you saw it) and forgot. Pretty sure half of fae lore is based on folk struggling with object permanence 🤦

In the tub are "melty" finches in a tower on top of one another, looking a bit like melted ice cream. There's a small twist of froyo on top of the very top finch and sprinkles all over the rest.

There are reasons this character’s full-body reference is not done. Many, many reasons. But at least I have a few detail shots to add to the eventual ref sheet. SOMEDAY.

I don’t know what you two screwed up, but you definitely made a mess somewhere, somehow… guess I’ll find out about it eventually. (These two tend to get themselves into and out of stupid situations, and it’s always a question of “Which one has the Brain Cell today? Or is it elsewhere right now?”)

ArtFight attack on @itskattt.bsky.social - when I stumbled over this traumatized reformed-cultist corgi character, it reminded me of my own highly-anxious pet. (His deepest trauma is watching humans eat tasty food without dropping a SINGLE morsel for his consumption, truly a living nightmare.)
