iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Yep, definitely too perfect for a photo.

I've seen different versions of this and it initially wasn't a generational thing. That was school for most people until a few years ago. And the irony is, the presence of AI doesn't make learning easier for students today.

Why is that quote on top of an AI image then?

Yeah, I don't think there is one because it's used for anything from a small inconvenience to a big thing you can't do anything about.

Or when your blood pressure is very low, but every time they measure it - great, in the normal range.

Here's today's column on the astonishing, ongoing mistreatment of people with #ME/CFS. Please spread it far and wide: the only thing which can break the media's wall of indifference is seeing an article about the issue go viral. Thank you. 1/2 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Abandoned, dismissed and gaslighted: there is no excuse for the way ME sufferers have been betrayed | George Monbiot

Changes in guidance and science seem to have little impact on millions of devastated lives. It’s a social crisis playing out behind closed doors, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

This could literally be me trying to identify a plant (or needing to sit down). Super scary that the exact people could be watching me. And I'm already anxious about doing "weird" things in public.

I went outside today and found some nice mushrooms. I had the idea of a sketchbook dedicated to all mushroom species I see. Now thinking about how to go about that.

Brown roll-rim mushroom (Paxillus involutus) from the side showing the gills

Can relate! I remember the first crochet hat I made turned out as a small stiff bowl because I did it so tightly. I still have to remind myself to loosen my grip on the hook.

None specific, I have a few different mid-price ones, tried sennelier and find them way too soft, but neopastels are nice.

Thanks! I'd love to see it! I'll probably give these ones a pass but will draw more random cards next week ☺️

Look at these amazing artists! If you're interested in the workshops but are busy this weekend - no problem, get a ticket anyway and watch the lessons whenever you like. I made this especially for neurodivergent creatives, as accessible as possible, and for just £15 very affordable too.

What's been happening in Germany and the UK the last few days makes me extra angry, because I can't go out and fight the fascists like I did 10-30 years ago, and not enough people did, so here we are (a German immigrant living in the UK).

A minute of stimming with colours (and card mixing sounds). I've started drawing random colours every week. No hex codes this time, but we have a light purple, a reddish brown and a pale yellow-orange. Create something, or just be inspired by the cards moving around. 🎨 #randomcolors #artinspiration

So I got out my pencils as soon as I got home. Taking 20 min to go outside, experiencing two unexpected things, that inspired me to this sketchbook art - and for the rest of the day. 🍏 Apple by the river - 15/08/26 (3/3)

Diverging Art @divergingart.com · 26/08/2026

Watching the duckweed swim by, I noticed the green apple. How did that get here? How is it the exact same colour as the duckweed? - I was contemplating about. I knew I had to put this on paper. Had I brought my phone and took a picture, that would have been forgotten. (2/3)

"Good morning, person contemplating" ...a dog walker said to me this morning while I was sitting by the river. I waved "Hello". The last heatwave had me stuck indoors for the past three days, and I was enjoying the fresh morning air and an overcast sky on an early and quiet Saturday morning. (1/3)
