I’m forever impressed by how steady your linework is with a brush. My god!

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

I'll keep reposting this (from 2023) because it's always a big mood for me at the start of Fall. 🥲🍂

Illustrated comic of a cute white bunny character in a yellow sweater. First panel: bunny is thoughtfully looking up at an orange leaf falling. Second: bunny is bending over to pick up the leaf from the ground. Third: bunny is holding up the leaf towards a tree and saying “Here, you dropped this.”

Been struggling hard to breathe for well over a week now thanks to being severely sick and Fall isn’t even in full swing yet. I’m not looking forward to how the rest of this year into winter will play out for my immune system AT ALL.

"but art should be accessible" it is, you can learn to draw, paint, collage, sculpt, make pixels. right now, starting today. art has never been more accessible monetarily nor physically than it is now in this age. access to artist labor and machine production is not an accessibility issue.

Would have LOVED to grab this one with the cover, but given the whole tariffs situation it’s just too cost prohibitive for me right now so i’ll have to look at it fondly from afar.

This was my humble purchase, plus an A6 techo with no cover. I use my weeks for memory keeping vs actual planning so love having it in my bag, while my A6 is for health tracking and daily habit building/reflecting.

Said this on the other app but we rly need to normalize that growing up = becoming a person with the money to afford childhood interests. The idea that you have to suddenly stop caring about cute or joyful things when you turn 18 is the reason so many ppl are so fucking miserable for 60 years after

Today has been the worst of days 😞😞 finally made time to paint only to find out some of my watercolor paper has gone “bad” (it’s doing w weird pilling thing), and two colors in a palette molded (wtf? First time in 20 years). Reminder to use your supplies and find joy in them and not put it off!

I feel for all the hobbyists and artists on both sides of the isle who either source and/or make money for their craft via small international shipments into the US. There’s no way of riding this one out when the livelihoods of many depend on it.

A large part of me is glad i dropped $2k on supplies in Dec when i saw the supply chain/inbounds shitshow on the horizon, given majority of what I use would have dome out of France, Italy, & Japan. Doing so now would cost an arm an a leg (on top of the cost) w/this new policy going into effect.

Growing up here you learn how to sleep on the subway on your way to school and your body clock sets to the stop so you wake up. If you’re afraid of it I will never stop laughing at you

To put it bluntly, this is a fucking disaster. For consumers, for small businesses and artists, for everybody. The US is cutting ourselves off from the rest of the world and for what?? Even if this gets sorted out or walked back, it’s going to cause a major disruption.

!! 😱😱 that is terrifying. I only just got it today so I will keep an eye on it! Do you have some good recommendations for storage for a fountain pen newbie like me? I dont mind so much with the readily available pens, but I’d hate for that to happen to my pilot and sailor pens!!
