My husband agreed to fully give up twitter if I give up bluesky. So bye bluesky, it’s been real ✌️

That’s not a great sign 😬😬😬 but hey, you said you’re hourly so it sounds like you’re going to make BANK as you slowly crumble to ash over the next few months

That’s how I do it! “If I’m driving and you’re reading me a messege I got, how would you describe the picture”

But I know exactly that fiercely protective feeling comes from about the communities in MN. I saw everyone with trash bags and brooms while they walked their dogs during the Floyd riots. Heck, I myself handed out food in front of World Market between armed NG and firefighters putting out the bank.

That’s a very real frustration to vent- I would just say as a former Minnesotan that all y’all up there have been taught how to walk on ice, and these southerners being trucked up do not. So it sounds (to me) more like the joke is on THEM, not on y’all.

The first time someone called my daughter fat, she was 1 year old. I shut that down SO FAST. We can’t talk about being healthy, making good choices, or body image until “fat” or “big” or “scrawny” or “flat” are neutral words. But right now they’re insults.

Jenna Figgers @jennafiggers.bsky.social · 15/01/2026

It’s complicated, because I know my back wouldn’t hurt as much if I had less weight straining it. But also I JUST KNOW that “I need to lose X weight” brainworm is from how I grew up in the 90s and I just need to strangle it until it dies. My daughter must not learn that curse from me.

Just by number of reads, I suppose this one.

Comic cover for “powers vol 1: who killed retro girl?” It’s a mostly blue American comic in that classic art style with heavy black inks. A blonde woman is flying overtop of a confusing scene of multiple superhero’s, with a bright light flashing in the center.

Oh, I didn’t realize there was a separate app!

Jenna Figgers @jennafiggers.bsky.social · 14/01/2026

I’m very new to all of this- does that mean blacksky people will show up in the bluesky app even if they were banned? (Yeah, I’m asking about Link)

Jenna Figgers @jennafiggers.bsky.social · 14/01/2026

I don’t believe that. But let’s pretend it’s true. What do you WANT to be? What can you change? If this sucks and it’s not working then like, YOLO man. Change stuff, do different things, practice being “better” in whatever ways matter to you. As Abe Lincoln said, “fuck it, we ball”.

My psych recommend not taking my Adderall every day? I mean, “pick a day where your brain doesn’t work” is rough. but I do have low-lift days where I don’t take it, in the hopes that it will work for me longer. I have to take it if I’m leaving the house though. For driving and stuff.

Jenna Figgers @jennafiggers.bsky.social · 13/01/2026

Well, that and I softened the contrast on her face to be less sinister, but maybe I should just go for it. I dunno, I might redo all the shading. “But Jenna, you should use orange or yellow for the light!” Not in this Duskvol, the electroplamsic lights are not natural. But that makes it harder.

Jenna Figgers @jennafiggers.bsky.social · 13/01/2026

So this is the current “finished”? Jexabell, and I just am not happy. Usually my shading method is to clip light/shadow to each flat color and adjust individually. This time I wanted a universal light, soo tried one light layer and 2 shadow layers. I don’t love it, the colors don’t feel right.

An illustration of Jexabell (OC) in various stages. All are the same pose; a vaguely Victorian and Edwardian mashup of clothing, her hair pinned up in vintage curls, holding a book.
1. the outlines
2. flat grayscale
3. grayscale with light and shadow added
4. flat colors
5. blue light and purple shadow overlayed

Judy on the other hand, ugh. Her arc was all over the place, she was weird, cold and distant, suddenly friendly, weird again, then out of the blue she’s flirty. Everything that happens when she calls you about Evelyn feels like half a script got cut. Like she was two characters smashed together.

000

Jenna Figgers @jennafiggers.bsky.social · 12/01/2026

I totally get that! There’s a balance with “player sexual” NPCs. I always love when certain NPCs are like, yeah no there’s nothing you can do the answer is just no. But there’s a difference between not even having the option to flirt, and flirting then being turned down.

Jenna Figgers @jennafiggers.bsky.social · 12/01/2026

In river’s defense, it does match his personality. From the start we see he’s intuitive, impulsive, and he just jumps in. So it makes total sense that you have one big adventure together and he’s like “yes this is it, perfect, I have never loved anyone more, please meet my whole family”

Jenna Figgers @jennafiggers.bsky.social · 12/01/2026

Blerg. I tried a different way to render a portrait, didn’t like it, and now my brain is like, “this cannot be done, can’t finish the portrait”. I know I can go back to my preferred shading method, but I’m blocked.

The “cookbook” format is SO GOOD for mysteries! The clarity is really helpful.

Jenna Figgers @jennafiggers.bsky.social · 09/01/2026

When Facebook first got popular, you had a section for photos, your friend list, and links. Because posting links was that infrequent. This was around the time teens would “sneak out” to the family computer at night. Just turn the dial on the speakers down so your parents don’t hear the dial-up.

What kind of stream assets do you like? I see this post is about logos and key art, is that usually it? Or do you expect/want like, overlay frames…?

I thought the same thing when I saw it. Starting a post with “I am admitting I am breaking contract and open to litigation, so anyway” is like…not something a reasonable person who understands litigation would do.

Last week my daughter took a full bite out of the stick of butter on the kitchen counter while I was out of the room, then came to come find me yelling “IM DISOBEYING!!!” (And since then, also bites of a block of cheddar, and, had I not intervened, a block of cream cheese)

In this market, I genuinely can’t tell if that’s a real game or not. And if not, someone’s going to start a Toddler’s Pocket Games Jam just to spite me PS the answer is play one of the other games. - what’s in your mouth - why are you wet - where did you get that - what’s in your toy purse

“Women’s clothes should have pockets” yes, obviously we all agree and TODDLER CLOTHES SHOULD NOT HAVE POCKETS. Why don’t I get pockets, but I have the privilege of finding a week old apple slice in my child’s laundry? Cancel kid pockets. Only fake pockets until they earn them.

Your soft, rounded lines/shapes and the way you use analogous color schemes! You don’t use the same colors for each piece, but within every piece you frequently do a limited palette of similar hues and low contrast shading. It’s very cozy!

Jenna Figgers @jennafiggers.bsky.social · 05/01/2026

When a blank page is too much for me, I dictate! I just turn on dictation and say whatever is in my brain out loud. I don’t even look at it, just brain dump. Then I at least have something to shape into a loose outline or notes for later. It’s very similar to having a rubber ducky in programming.

Jenna Figgers @jennafiggers.bsky.social · 05/01/2026

Great! For the ones who don’t speak much I will still sometimes ask, “what is your character thinking in this moment?” And that will usually spark some conversation between PCs.

And the biggest thing I want is to be able to save wherever rather than having to run back home (and wait through the loading screens) to do it. So if ever pterosaurs are introduced, I think they should be for fast travel and saving.
